So many Eva fics love talking about the synch tests; how long they are, how boring they are, and how important they are.
Sometime after the Seventh Angel, Ritsuko decides to shake things up a bit. She puts Shinji in Rei's Eva and checks to see if they can synch. They can, up to a point. But why stop there?
I'm curious as to what would happen next. Asuka might be moved to Unit 01, and Rei to Unit 02. What would happen? And afterwards? Well, Asuka and Shinji DID pilot Unit 02 together...why not try putting Rei and Shinji in Unit 01 together? Why not try shuffling the pilot around the Evas, alone and in pairs? After all, something could happen to the holding cages, and having the Evas comfortable with all of the pilots could help with that.
And then, the final test. All three pilots in a single unit. What happens? Anything? Everything? An Angel attack? (heh).
Alternatively, Ritsuko could go for broke from the start and toss Shinji, Rei and Asuka into Unit 02 immediately. After all, Shinji and Asuka managed to synch together, so why not all three?
I'm interested in developing this, but I don't have anywhere to take it. Anyone have some thoughts on this?
