Alan heaved a sigh of relief as he dialed the code to his locker. While he wasn’t loath to help the girl out with any questions she had, he was glad the bus ride went by as quiet as it did. He hadn’t needed to force any kind of conversation, because surely that would’ve gotten awkward as heck...

“I’m doing good enough!” He said as a small laugh escaped him. “Thanks for asking.” He scaled the stairs, and stopped just a few threads before the girl as he asked her “Have you been able to get used to life at Nerv yet?”. He waved away the compliment she had given him with an embarrassed...

With his brown leather briefcase slung over his back, Alan idly tapped his back with it while he waited for the lift to come down. He’d called it to his floor a while ago, so he wondered why it took so long. He reached for one of the granola bars in his pocket, and with one hand deftly unwrapped...

A shape rose up, enveloped by something both weighty and soft. Another shape, yet smaller. Seconds passed till the larger of the two regained some semblance of higher brain function, and established that it wasn’t just a mere shape. From under his covers, Alan stared unblinkingly at his alarm...

Alan poured over the documents and books strewn on his desk. He had been studying for a while now, the time just being a few minutes shy of becoming 3 o’clock in the morning. He hadn’t gone back to the recreation room, and hadn’t the mind of remembering he left his book there. Rubbing at his...

Alan groaned loudly right after leaving the colonel’s office. He had groaned so loud, even he himself was surprised at how audible it had been. “How am I even going to give a good example, when I’m not even a good pilot in the first place?” It was true he and Sol had taken care of the first two...

Seven or fifteen. A rather broad estimation Alan thought. Not only that, it isn’t even confirmed; merely conjecture, but conjecture was better than nothing. In anyway, the colonel wanted them to simply focus on defeating the angels, something much easier said than done. All other things came...

Mulling over the information the Colonel had just given them, it took Alan a bit before he could figure out what he wanted to ask. He looked at the thick stack of files the colonel had handed them. He briefly fancied the idea of skimming through it, but he just knew the Colonel wouldn’t...

Alan had completely forgotten that he had an appointment with the colonel today, and followed right behind Sol as they walked out into the wall. He wasn’t paying much attention, so he almost kept on walking the wrong direction as Sol turned the other way. Eventually having reached the Colonel’s...

“Now that you mention it-” Alan said. He had taken her words at face value, not realising it was a joke. Putting down his copy of “Crime and Punishment” on the table he slid it towards Sol.“-a man in Canada was a casualty to a bear attack on the tenth of march this year.” Retrieving his...

Alan didn’t have to think long for an answer. “I’d like to go to a national park sometime” He said. “Coincidentally, one of the scientists called unit 4 “Yosemite”. What would a national park like that have to do with unit 4?” Alan wondered. He frowned when Sol made her remark. “I still feel...

The radio started playing something more agreeable by the time the door to the recreation room opened. Alan still facing the radio, tensed up as he heard Sol’s voice. He turned around, and saw her standing in the doorway. “I’m not bored.” He stated, pausing for a moment. “It’s just that I can’t...

The sound of music playing through speakers could be heard in the recreation room. Alan was seated at a table there as he tried to unwind. He had been frequenting it during most of his breaks, but he had only gotten more restless after every visit. It was a restlessness that urged him to do...
