FUYUTSUKI:“Regardless of the cause,
it would be disastrous if an Angel
were to attack right now.”
UrsusArctos: Way to go tempting fate, professor! Wait a moment...where did Fuyutsuki get that candle from? I'd imagine Nerv keeping a stack of battery-powered lights for times like this, not candles!
Mr. Tines: I wonder if this reflects real world old-school earthquake preparedness
UrsusArctos: That's very plausible given how prone Japan is to earthquakes, but candles do pose a minor fire hazard and aren't particularly bright compared to flashlights (unless Nerv blew their budget again and could only afford candles).
