    Summary

    Shinji Ikari is a girl.

    Although she's known this for a while, it comes as quite a surprise to everybody else.

    Her decision to take charge of her destiny will bring change beyond her wildest imagination—for her, for her friends, and for the labyrinthine conspiracies hanging invisibly above her head.

    Join Shinji on her journey to become herself as she deals with bullies at school, supportive friends who kinda don’t get it but are trying their best, thrift store clothes shopping, a father who’s hoping to avoid the whole “gender” thing until it all blows over, the giant cyborg she has to pilot, the giant monsters that want to destroy humankind, the cabal of creepy old men that want to destroy humankind, and a strange, fey boy who probably wants to destroy humankind.

    Also, she might be turning into a conduit between the mortal and divine. Whatever that means.

    Summary

    Shinji comes to terms with being a trans girl and confronts the social and systemic forces that stand in her way. Her exploration of queerness influences the other kids to analyze their own identities, and in the process, Shinji, Rei, and Kaworu develop feelings for each other.

    This fic draws themes from the essay collection "Neoreaction: a Basilisk," which digs deep into the philosophical underpinnings of the modern radical right and proposes some values that can help a person inoculate themselves and their communities from their influence

    This one's gonna go to some weird places. Bioterrorist, infect thyself.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Somehow I had thought that if anyone were to upload a fic tagged with Neoreaction a Basilisk, it would have to be me. I am happy to be proven wrong.
