But now she was fully cleared for active duty again and recent events had shown the importance of the material in the book. Without it she would not have been able to explain Pilot Ikari's unusual reaction to her unclothed body, when delivering her ID-card. Or his desire to see her smile after the battle with Ramiel.
It was obvious, that pilot Ikari found her sexually attractive. That was a good starting point.
The Third Children seemed to suffer from a dangerous lack of self-confidence, that had almost led him to leave NERV on more then one occasion. This could not be permitted.
Rei had initially planned to slowly work her way up. Establishing an emotional bond and starting a low level physical relationship with her fellow pilots; kissing and light petting at first.
But it appeared that at this point nothing less than full intercourse would suffice to bring pilot Ikari's self-confidence up to acceptable levels and give him a reason to stay at NERV.
She had hoped to wait for the arrival of the Second Children before putting her plan into action, but the situation now appeared to urgent for further delay.
This was unfortunate as Pilot Langley's files showed her to be a redhead and information overheard in the schoolyard seemed to indicate, that redheads were especially well suited for the task at hand.
Her manual had not been able to confirm any special relation between hair color and temperament, but it might have been in the sections that were regrettably damaged beyond her ability of reconstruction.
Special attention to hair color was, in fact, only given twice in the surviving parts of the text. Once in the illustrated section about proper styling of pubic hair and a second time in a discourse about the link between hair color and the likehood of receiving a sunburn. The book suggested to use a suitable amount of sunscreen, if members of the harem were to spend an extended amount of time outdoors with little or no clothing.
Rei had made a note of the latter for future reference and applied the lessons of the former directly by trimming her own sparse hair in what she hoped would be a aesthetically pleasing shape. She had to interpolate on the examples given in the book as it did not touch upon 14-year-old blue-haired albinoids specifically.
But all this was ultimately irrelevant for the decision she now faced:
