On the First Day of Christmas…
…Captain Harlock gave to me:
a Partridge in a Pear Tree~
Wait, what?? What kind of a gift is that?! And how am I supposed to take it down from there???
Hold on! I think you’re taking the words “take it down” all wrong…
No, Baka Shinji! What are you doing?! NOOOOOOOOOO!!!

NOTE TO SELF: Never invite Gainax to a Christmas party ever again.

RIP Patridge
I’ll have to make the best of the situation:
Killing the partridge was all part of the plan for Instrumentality to begin with. You’re playing right into Harlock’s hands.
Gainax and Harlock, truly the end of the world has come.
The Partridge was an Angel named Michael and it wanted to create an impact.
And to do it showered with Shinji? Hmm, I don’t think I’m going to eat that partridge now.
What else could it do? It first tried being Ayanami’s pet but it almost died of starvation in that apartment of hers.
Hehe. Starving to death might be worth it if one is to be Ayanami’s pet..
Haha, I can’t imagine Happy Gainax Christmas being very cheerful anyway. Probably exciting though!
I’d wear a helmet to a Gainax Christmas party, and my own mecha if I had one.
At least now you have your “turkey” dinner!
Though it’s probably a bit burnt…
