Summary
"The strained silence ever-present in his house; his parents, co-stars in a fraught, almost antagonistic relationship who only tolerate each other to keep the show going; and he, a child with no drive, no wants, no emotions. A puppet to complete the illusion. A boy who stops existing when he’s no longer needed.
It’s easy to follow the path set for him by his father. His mother had, almost immediately after giving birth to him, rejected the responsibility of raising him, after all. Legacy secured, job done. But his father, shallow as it was, still expected things of him."
Douno Cheung is not a real person. He's just an empty shell, a vessel for his father's expectations. He views his own life mostly from the outside. A character study of my own original character who takes Misato's place in this Evangelion AU, up until the start of the show.

Summary

He/him pronouns for Tachibana, bc he's a guy no matter what his body currently looks like.

Summary
The site seems like a pretty standard military base, concrete and brick and barbed wire. There are some airstrips in the vicinity, too, outside the chain link fences. Cheung probably works here, since he’s supposed to be a military captain or something. I have no idea why he signed up for it, I’m already depressed just thinking about having to come to a place as dreary and hostile as this all the time.
I can see why my mother set up here, it matches her perfectly.
Cheung silently leads me through the compound, to a red door made of thick metal where he swipes a keycard and punches in a code. I can’t stop myself from running my fingers along the sharp plastic edges of my visitor lanyard - if whatever is behind here is important enough to require this much security, why would my mother want me to have any part in it?A slightly-to-the-left interpretation of Neon Genesis Evangelion (TV) with my own original characters.
Stel Douglas, a completely normal teenager, is summoned Corsham, Wiltshire, to be part of an exclusive team of giant robot pilots in the fight against an alien threat, under orders of Ezra Douglas, Stel's own mother.

Summary
Goro stared into his coffee, small bubbles swirling in the even beige liquid, following his spoon as he pushed it around and around. He’d been staring for a while, assuring Sakura-san he was just letting it cool off so he didn’t burn his tongue, but he couldn’t be sure how long ago that was now. He raised the cup to his lips just as the door opened with a cheerful chime.
“Honey, I’m home!”
The milk in his coffee curdled on his tongue as the second most aggravating person in the world disrupted the cafe’s serenity. Goro turned and smiled, transforming his frustration into pep.
“Don’t you have a girlfriend to use a line like that on?”

Summary
Song Taewon is used to waking up to the shrieking sound of his alarm blaring at him to get up and go to work. He’s even used to waking up to his phone ringing from an urgent call telling him he’s needed immediately even though it’s three in the morning and he hasn’t had a decent night’s sleep in weeks. What he’s not used to is waking up naked and sore in a bed he doesn’t recognize to someone screeching in his ears. He likes to think that he’s pretty good at rolling with the punches, he has to be in order to survive doing what he does, but this might be stretching it a little.
He distinctly remembers going to sleep in his own bed last night, fully clothed, after finishing his latest batch of paperwork. Did someone move him here while he was asleep? How? He’s not a heavy sleeper, no S-class is with their enhanced senses, so how could somebody have moved him all the way to wherever here is? He stretches his limbs tentatively and huh his limbs are much shorter than they should be what the-Or: the 1st timeline taejinjae bodyswap AU nobody asked for

Summary
Despite their angelic reputation, Halovians are no less bound by their bodies as anyone else. Even those supposedly perfect will have their issues, and when left to fester, they’ll only get worse. No matter how much Sunday wishes to separate himself from his body, he is now stuck in reality and forced to address the problems he had hoped to leave behind once in the blissful dream. Forced awake after so long dreaming, it’s so much worse than before, and he is no better than any fearful little charmony dove
Have you ever seen a dove try to build a nest? It’s so pathetic you just feel bad for the stupid thing.
(Sunday has a lot of problems and at this point he has no choice but to get rehabilitated by the humans around him like the neglected rescue bird he is)

Summary
“Guys, hey, come on,” Jade says. “Troll language is much more specific about stuff like this, when he says stabbed he could mean something different! Karkat,” she switches to Alternian, bending her human vocal structures in painful-sounding ways but still doing a much better job than Dave, all things considered. “Stabbed, stabbed, or stabbed?”
You know you didn’t teach her the distinction between “poke hard with a non-strife-allocated object”, “stab lightly to show somebody not to fuck with you”, and “impale to kill”. Humans don’t even have that distinction. It’s a fucking miracle they get anything done.
“…Stabbed,” you say, carefully enunciating like a fucking liar.
