Hey there! Thought this would be a little funny story to start up after seeing so many of those 'Tag' advertisements and mixing it with the Eva crew. I don't really know how far I'll take this or how explicit as I'm a bit new at actually writting up these fanfictions up and a bit slow at it - But I'll try to make these quite worthwhile.

Disclaimer - I don't own any products or brandnames, blah blah blah, people or their names, corporations ortheir names, you get the idea...

Tag - M - some language and strongly implied sexual situations.

Warning: Do not let women pick your deoderant when under the influence of hormones...

For once in a long while, Misato was actually keeping up her end of the chores and duties as the household guardian…she was shopping. No not her typical beer run with occasional picking up of a few instant meals from the corner. No today it was ACTUAL grocery shopping. Strange thing was, she had volunteered for it which really weirded Shinji out. But hey this new place had opened up near downtown and rumor had it that it also sold a wide variety of imported beers usually never seen around Tokyo 3, so of course she had to try it out…

"Well I've got my needs covered…" Misato checked off her part of the list. Four cases of imported beer – all different brands, her instant, and a six-pack of another brand of drink she yet had to try which was supposed to be a really sweet one. Heck if Maya Ibuki was the one to suggest it, it had to be good.

"Now lets see…just got to pick up Asuka and Shinji's stuff…" consulting the rest of the list. "Eggs – check, Asuka's sausages…okay." Finally she reached the hygiene section. Of course Asuka insisted on getting those things herself dreading the consequences if Misato was left to get the wrong kinds. This had led to quite an angry Asuka when she had teased the young girl about how if she wasn't getting her tampons, how would she know if she wasn't pregnant or something. – That had been quite a mistake as Asuka had yelled quite a lot about Misato being indecent and how she could think she'd be foolish enough to do that with men (maybe Kaji though), then proceeded to verbally beat on Shinji about liking the perverted discussion, and locking herself in her room. Of course it was just for fun…for Misato anyway, and not like it didn't happen every week or so…

All that was left was Shinji's deodorant and probably the only thing that he tried to get clear to Misato as she left. On the list he even gave a description with the brand name – and there it was in front of her, a bland black metallic spray can of no scent deodorant – obviously a cheap one. Misato disregarded his preference and inspected a selection just to the left. It looked a lot like the other one, yet more extravagant and had a sexy aura to it. She took a whiff…

"Ahh. Mmmmm…" 'God that's powerful stuff! Wonder what it would be like if Shinji actually used this stuff!' she thought, with some naughty ideas playing in her head. After awhile she realized she had been leaning back against the shelves for the past five minutes daydreaming. 'I suppose I should get going' With the can of deodorant chosen, she then proceeded to checkout and home…though not realizing some of the looks she got because of her oddly smug face.

"WAKE UP YOU BAKA! YOU forgot to set the alarm- AGAIN!" was Shinji's wakeup call the next morning.

"…five more minutes Asuka…"was his response "…wait…WHAT!" Now he was up out of bed just as Asuka walked past his doorway again in a total half dressed mess. Her being only really in panties and apparently struggling with a top, being late, and now noticing Shinji's 'morning tent' – she could only yell at him again-

"You PERVERT – this is no time to – aug! – get excited about seeing a sexy – rrrr – body such as mine that – rahh – thAT YOU CAN NEVER HAVE – GOT THAT BAKA!" She shouted while dominating the blouse and running back into the other room for her skirt. Shinji got dressed into his school uniform quickly.

"Ah…um…sorry." Was all he could offer.

"Oh, and you can forget breakfast, we're going to be late as is – So you can be thankful I don't have the time to KICK YOUR ASS right now!" berated Asuka as she ran back the other way down the hall.

"Wait why are you dressed for school? We have combat tests today Baka! Plus there's no school today anyway!" and ducked her head back out the door.

Shinji double-checked the time – he did set the alarm, but for the time to get up for school and not some Eva test that he hadn't been informed of. Not able to do much but finish getting ready he applied some deodorant before leaving grabbing his LCL washup duffle. Asuka was right behind him out the door and coughed a bit.

"Shinji – why do you wear that awful antiseptic stuff!" cough cough. "and don't you already have shower stuff at the locker rooms?" she questioned pointing out the bag.

"Yeah, but I have a few things running low and I don't like the stuff they have there…"

"Well at least your picky about somethings…" Asuka grumbled.

That be the first bit, and I'm already working on the second. So far I can see doing a third for sure soon, after that? depends onthe reveiws I get - So send some!
