Teasers from "Drunkard's Walk: Angel Baby"

If I had to lay out a theory, I'd say that Lilith's soul is fundamentally incapable of understanding human perceptions -- kind of like someone plugging a 110v appliance into a 220v outlet. Doug would have to create a metaphysical adapter so they could properly interface.

Okay, I'll admit this -- I started plotting out DW6 almost two years ago, long before I learned that Rei's soul is supposed to be Lilith's. That tidbit causes a little problem with my plot, but I think I can work around it: just as Rei's body is cloned from Lilith's and Yui's, Rei's soul is also a hybrid construct, grown from a fragment of Lilith's (which actually makes Lilith's "Welcome back" line make more sense) and a fragment of at least one human's. Who would be the human donor? I'd have fun and say anyone who seems excessively cold or inhuman during the show -- Gendo would be a natural choice for a soul donor. Maybe Naoko Akagi (although I'd have a hard time justifying that, given her reaction to Rei I, unless it was without her knowledge). Or what about a very young Ritsuko? In her case the damage at first would seem slight, but would get worse over time...
Mind you, this is just an off-the-cuff idea that I came up with right now. But I'd be interested in seeing what folks think of it.
