The Second Try / Fan Fic	comment	Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })After Third Impact, Shinji and Asuka are the only humans left in the whole world, and they must carry on with only each other. And against all odds, they do, overcoming their own psychoses and insecurities and becoming better humans through it.Then one morning, they both wake up to find that mankind has returned, they are in their younger bodies and living in Misato's apartment again, and only they have any memories of what has happened, and what is happening again, the little world they built for themselves destroyed.And now they have to go through their most trying ordeals once more in the EVAs, and try to change history, while simultaneously deflecting suspicions of their changes, and coping with the loss of their old life.The realm of Eva fics has numerous Post-Third Impact and Peggy Sue stories of varying quality. The Second Try (found here, here and here -note: you can find the complete version of chapter 4 in the last link-) has both plotlines, but ya know what? It works. The story has Asuka and Shinji change vastly from how they were in the series, but in small ways, so that Shinji is still Shinji and not Chuck Norris or The Chessmaster, and Asuka is still Asuka and not Belldandy or Ty Lee, and the reasons for these changes are organic and make sense in context for the characters.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_2'); })The Author has since begun a sequel webmanga called Aki-chan's Life. It picks up right where the story leaves off. (Or rather, a week or two before the story actually ends.) Another fic of his, The Ikaris, now has his own page.Go to The Child of Love to read a different take on one of the main plot points of this story. Go to Once More with Feeling, RE-TAKE, Higher Learning or Doing It Right This Time if you are interested in reading more Peggy Sue Evangelion fics. Check Advice and Trust, The Child of Love, Evangelion 303, The Ikaris, Nobody Dies, The One I Love Is, or Mobile Fighter Evangelion to see other AU Eva fics. Check A Crown of Stars, HERZ, Neon Genesis Evangelion R, Scar Tissue, Walking in the Shadow of Dreams, Ghosts of Evangelion and Neon Genesis Evangelion: Genocide to see other Eva continuation fics. Go to Children of an Elder God, Gods, Angels, and Kings, Last Child of Krypton, Shinji And Warhammer 40 K, Superwomen of Eva 2: Lone Heir of Krypton and Thousand Shinji if you are interested in crossovers.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_1'); })Tropes:

At first she mistakes it for a display of No Sympathy she had been used to from the old Asuka, until she hears her berating him for writing Rei off so hastily. Asuka then argues that the new Rei may still be the same as the one they know. She's right.

The place was (is? will be?) a nice find; largely self supportive with solar panels and batteries, a generator, rainwater collection system, usable garden, room for livestock, furnished living quarters, a fully stocked repair shed, and a working truck with the added bonus of being close to several city ruins ripe for scavenging. However, they had to work really hard to make it work.

Even after the birth, they had to work hard, make mistakes, and deal with situations they were not prepared for.

Still, they were living alone in a post-apocalyptic world so they had to work together closely since they could only depend on each other. Shinji learnt to reach her out and she opened up to him eventually, admitting her own part in the mess what was her pre-Impact relationship, and falling in love with Shinji. Aki to Rei. Shinji and Asuka had been trying defrosting Rei for months, but Aki involuntarily managed to coax Rei to display her feelings in a very short while.

Despite the happy times that Shinji and Asuka spent with their daughter, the audience already knows that Aki was erased from existence when the time line was rewound.

Little Aki will grow up without any friends; and, what will happen to her once her parents are gone? Their happiness will not last forever, nor does the future look bright. These are then averted (subverted?) when it turns out that Aki had been sent into the past as well, appearing a few days after Kaworu's death. Tears are shed as she's reunited with her parents, Aki has been given a chance to live a normal life, and they all finally earn their happy ending.

That he had written out by hand. She, of course, recognizes his handwriting, and a quick peek at his schoolwork confirms that he wrote it. She then remembers his and Asuka's odd behavior, and realizes that Asuka may know something about the letter. When she confronts Asuka, who is extremely distraught at the time (for very good reasons), Asuka breaks down and lets the facade drop.

The unnoticed fatal Villainous BSoD their chairman suffered while they were arguing doesn't help to clear the air.

Asuka thinks her younger self would hate her since during her Character Development she forsook all what she had lived for during her childhood and became a very different person who does not mind showing her emotions, letting other close and loves being a wife and a mother. Shinji disagrees, stating she is being too hard on herself. Straight after he states he thinks his deeply-insecure, self-loathing, shy younger self would be shocked at seeing him... but he does not hate him since he knows why he was so full of insecurities and neurosis.

Asuka then argues that the new Rei may still be the same as the one they know. She's right.

After they have both confessed their mutual feelings of love in chapter 4, yet shied away from each other for a few days afterwards, Asuka is the first to call out on the ridiculousness of their situation and to drag Shinji into a kiss. She decides it to be their first real kiss, conveniently considering that the peck Shinji gave her while she was sick and the aforementioned kissing disaster do not count as the both of them didn't get to enjoy it back then.

During Asuka's pregnancy, Shinji even worries a bit that her young age might cause complications. Taken even further when they reunite with Aki in the last chapter: while Aki is still 4, Shinji and Asuka were returned into the bodies they had at 14, bringing the (physical) age gap between parents and daughter down to ten years. Shinji lampshades it in the epilogue when he mentions that their unusual family situation is likely to bring some awkward questions and formalities.

Their relationship got worse and as a result of it they were unable to prevent the demise of everyone in the world but them. The end of the world forced them to carry with only each other, living and working together. In the process they not only matured but also learnt to open up to each other and got together and eventually married.

Given how hurtful those words were for the both of them, he felt he totally deserved it. Asuka gives him "the first one in years that had been anything but playful" when he blocks her from entering Aki's room while she's sick with measles to prevent her from getting contaminated. For once however, he doesn't back off and even tells her he's ready to take more. In the post-time travel chapters, Shinji gets slapped by Asuka twice as he's waking up in the hospital for having her worried. The first time after the fight with the 12th, the second after his month-long stay in Unit-01. Each time is immediately followed by a kiss. Another well-deserved (and expected) one Shinji gets occurs after he gets back to Asuka after leaving her worrying for several hours before the JSSDF attack, breaking curfew to go back to their apartment to pick up the engagement ring he intended to give her before their last battle.

There may have been a little jealousy there, but she was more worried that Shinji would get hurt again. In chapter 10, it's pointed out that the only reason she hasn't felt jealousy in years is because she had no one but her daughter to "compete" with for Shinji's affection.

He only found out by chance when he was picking up their trash after a rat had ripped open a bag and discovered the positive test. Needless to say, he was not happy. They're not really sure how it happened, as Asuka had been on the pill when she got pregnant. Asuka claims that the drugs were expired while Shinji suspects that she forgot to be constant in taking it.

The Second Try / Fan Fic / int_f604f64b	type	Dude, She's Like in a Coma
The Second Try / Fan Fic / int_f604f64b	comment	Dude, She's Like, in a Coma!: After the defeat of the Seventeeth Angel, Shinji visits a sleeping Asuka in the hospital, and unlike what he did in the original timeline, he kisses her. Asuka wakes up during the kiss and jokingly tells maybe he should have tried that the last time instead. Also happens in chapter 6, after Asuka gave birth to Aki and passed out from the stress of the delivery (she and the audience were led to believe — wrongly — that she was dying). Shinji kisses her just before she wakes up, surprised to be still alive, and he even cracks a joke about it.

Tears are shed as she's reunited with her parents, Aki has been given a chance to live a normal life, and they all finally earn their happy ending.

Shinji caused Third Impact because Asuka rejected him ("No one loves me, so everyone must die"). In the altered timeline, he almost caused the Third Impact again because he believed Asuka was dead.

After the end of the world they worked together to survive, fallen in love and got married... and then they were sent back in time, waking up in their teenager bodies. Before the Final Battle Shinji proposed to Asuka again (technically for first time) and she accepted. In the sequel they were planning their wedding.

She nearly crashed the truck several times. Probably didn't help that it was also a stick shift. Her skills improved after a while, however. Misato's bad driving got mentioned in the sequel.

Exemplified in his rematch with the 13th angel. He keeps calm during the fight, retains control of his EVA when Gendo tries to activate the Dummy Plug, and after Rei safely extracts the Entry plug from Unit 03, pulls out his prog knife and practically butchers the thing before killing it with repeated stabs to the core.
