It's canon, but money says you don't even know why.  Also, Rei would
be less
related from a certain point of view.  The Lilith DNA would see to
that.
Lilims would be direct descendants of one another, but Rei would
actually be
further away than you think because of the fact that some of her DNA
comes
directly from the source.  As for Shinji and Rei not having children
together
... well ... they can't so the argument of this point is really moot
anyway,
now isn't it?  And, while I'm on the topic and practically inviting
flames,
I'd love to ask something of all the Eva authors out there who refuse
to write
a ShinjixRei-style fic.  Is it just because of their "relation" that
you
refuse to do this, or is there some deeper hatred going on here?  I
mean, I'd
really like to know.  And no, I don't care if you flame me.  <weg> 
Just go
right on ahead and try it.  Besides ... if Shinji x Rei is so bad ...
why is
it that the Shinji x Asuka fics never measure up to the level of the
Shinji x
Rei fics?  <chuckles>  Well, so much for trying to stir up a
controversy.

I know the feeling. In Garden of Eva I'm exploring the Shinji/Rei
relationship. Fortunately, I don't have the problem with Rei being a
clone of Shinji's mother in the little reality Shinji made in Ep26.
Plus, this is a different Rei than in the 'real' Eva universe. She's
very...emotional.

Of course, that doesn't guarentee that Asuka not going to get a shot at
Shinji herself. :)

Both pairings deserve to be explored in Fanfics. Personally, I feel that
both couples a have their plus and negative points (of course in the
real Eva universe the fact that Rei is a clone of Shinji's mom is a big
minus).
