Some day, this will be a "Last.fm/NetFlix/Amazon for web fiction" (both original and fanfiction) where you can search across many different hosting sites or rate what you've read and get recommendations. However, life keeps throwing more urgent projects my way, so I don't know when it'll be ready.

NGE: Failures of Communication, Chapter 3"Yeah, this isn't ending well," Pieter says.
With a whine, the door explodes, the Reis almost oozing into the room as dignitaries begin screaming. As one, they turn, seeing the target of their affections, moving as one towards him.
For someone about to be ganged upon by 144 half-angel clones, he is holding up surprisingly well.
They pause, sniffing the air, sensing a new presence. Something beneath them roars. The wood shudders and the floor splits, the part the Reis are standing on rising, dipping down as they begin sliding.
And horn first, the massive visage of Unit 01 rises. The Great Rei Army shrieks as the Eva opens its jaw and they slide en masse into its mouth.
With an affirmative, satisfied burp, it closes its jaw and descends.
"That was ironically beautiful," Maya says, and quickly withers under Pieter's gaze, "Sorry."
Ritsuko sighs, walking over to the podium. She gestures to Maya, and she takes out of her pocket a pair of sunglasses, handing another pair to Pieter as she puts them on. Ritsuko puts on a pair of her own, clearing her throat as she takes a silver metal rod out of her pocket.
"Ladies and gentlemen, your attention please."
The guests, still shaken, turn to her. The rod extends, a red light at the tip emitting a whine before flashing. Dumbstruck, they stare as Ritsuko closes the device and places it back into her pocket.
"Ladies and gentlemen," she says as she closes her sunglasses, "What you saw was not 144 clones of the First Child being eaten by Evangelion Unit 01. Instead, what you witnessed was a gas main explosion, and we're all lucky to be alive. Please exit and resume this meeting in the next available lecture hall."
The guests silently walk out the doors, as Kaworu finally collapses onto his seat.
"Right," Maya says, "I'll prep the stomach pump for Unit 01."
