The Angels are gone. [[Now What?]]?

By Gregg Landsman, the author of ''[[~~Nobody Dies (Fanfic)|~~Nobody Dies]]'', ''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5528503/1/NGE_Walking_in_the_Shadow_of_Dreams Walking in the Shadow of Dreams]'' once again takes ''[[Neon Genesis Evangelion]]'' and tweaks one or two things to make an interesting [[What If]]. Using a snippet by the creator of ''[[The Second Try]]'' as a launching point, Landsman takes us to a world where Third Impact was rejected in a stunning but well-written fashion, and we open with a Shinji and Gendo that actually have some common ground sparring as a lead-in to Gendo offering Shinji a job as NERV's Chief Inspector. His first assignment -- go fetch the new head of Project E.

[[Magnificent Bastard|Gendo being Gendo]], even now, he neglects to tell his son the recruit is a certain red-head...and that their new head scientist is bringing her daughter...

It's also the fic that solidified Landsman's characterization of Lilith, and by extension Rei, as having a strong desire <s>[[Babies Ever After|for babiesbabiesbabiesBABIESBABIESBABIES!]]</s> to procreate.

''Shadow'' seems to be on hold while Landsman works on its [[Troper Critical Mass|Troper Critical Massed]] [[Nobody Dies ~~(Fanfic)~~|cousin]], but the sixteen chapters so far are worth the read.

Recently, Landsman posted the first six chapters of [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6018100/1/NGE_Walking_in_the_Shadow_of_Dreams_Ver_2 a rewrite] of this fic, which will move more slowly, expand the plot, and has incorporated [[Rebuild of Evangelion|Mari Makinami]] and other characters which weren't in the original.
