Spacedust and Chaos: A Requiem

"With mild trepidation, dark-natured cosmic tangents scissored, crossed, folded into vexatious concisions, as boundless as the sea, the spiraling rubical blood nimbus cut asunder by the long lady fingers of morning sunshine. Time tick-tocked steadily against the corridors and the clean-shaven mammals inside, inefficient mouths murmured, articulating half-true sentiments that held no bearing for the concession of death, rebirth, ashes to ashes, legs valiantly pumping, throttling the tiled white with overbearing pomposity."

- The opening lines. Overbearing pomposity indeed.

Spacedust and Chaos: A Requiem by Chuck Williamson is a short Neon Genesis Evangelion fanfic in which Rei and Asuka get it on. This in itself is nothing notable or unusual. What distinguishes this fic is its... interesting writing style, of which a sample can be seen above. It continues in a similar vein for a few thousand words in which there's some shagging, and some other stuff happens, and it ends with, well, figure it out yourself.
