''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4673040/1/ And If That Don't Work?]'' by Sunshine Temple is a ''[[Neon Genesis Evangelion]]'' {{spoiler|and some [[
Currently ''And If That Don't Work?'' clocks in at more than two hundred thousand words over a mere 11 chapters; it was started in 2008 and is still going.
Shinji rapidly becomes either [[OC Stand In|unrecognizable]] or more "natural". A bit of [[Author Appeal]] with the militarization of NERV and the way a certain character dresses. The [[Original Character|OCs]] are a lot of fun. By the same author is ''[[The Return (

Line 18:
** {{spoiler|Matarael}} uses a very similar tactic in its attack.
* [[Badass Adorable]] - [[Moe|Shinju]], [[Elegant Gothic Lolita|just]] [[Blood Knight|Shinju]]
* [[Band of Brothers]] - Used and Deconstructed. In ch 9, Shinju gives the Saint Crispin's Day speech from ''[[
* [[Beehive Hairdo]] - Asuka (yes, Asuka) is talked into wearing one of these to a victory party.
** Likely a case of [[Author Appeal]], especially given [http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y44/sunshinetemple/FanArt_not_on_site/AsukasFancyDress.jpg the dress] she wears with it.
Line 54:
** {{spoiler|And poor <s>Asuka</s> Kiko. Shinju even encourages her to give up on her old self.}}
* [[Mad Scientist]] - Given all the cloning, Angel-killing nukes, and the Evangelions themselves...seems to be a theme.
** It should be noted that the "sanest" one is an [[Expy]] of [[Team Fortress 2
** Insana is after ch. 7 the undisputed king of this trope amongst the characters of this story.
* [[Mad Scientist's Beautiful Daughter]] - And the man that embraces the above to the fullest just happens to be ''Asuka's'' father. {{spoiler|Former MIT Professor Tino Noah Insana. You can guess his [[The Spoony Experiment
* [[Meaningful Name]] - Dr. Insana. Hoo boy.
* [[Meaningful Rename]] - {{spoiler|Asuka --> Nigokiko/Kiko after Asuka was turned into a human/EVA-02 hybrid}}.
Line 66:
* [[OC Stand In]] - Arguably what happens to Shinji and then to Asuka.
* [[Oxymoronic Being]] - Kiko is a miniature giant robot. That is, she's [[Half-Human Hybrid|half]] [[Humongous Mecha|Evangelion]] but [[Robot Girl|human sized.]]
* [[Powered
* [[Red Eyes, Take Warning]] - All three Ayanamis
* [[Reds
* [[Remember When You Blew Up a Sun?]] - Asuka is constantly reminded that she blew up a mountain as a high point of her first battle, despite her complaints of it being covered with Angels and rather small.
** Shinju too, just ask about Operation Excelsior around her.
* [[Robot Girl]] - Subverted by Kiko, who is {{spoiler|a [[Organic Technology|human/Eva hybrid]] }}.
* [[Shout-Out]] - ''[[
* [[Shovel Strike]] - The Evangelions have Spetsnaz-style prog shovels.
* [[Soviet Superscience]] - Mostly averted. The Angel Buster nukes are slight modifications of real weapons.
