Summary
“Just work with us and we can finish this.”
She didn’t move. She wasn’t accepting, Pentecost knew that, but she wasn’t denying either.
Was she trying to bargain?
Suddenly, things started making sense. Like her pilots, Gipsy was stubborn, and it seemed she had something she wanted if she was going to help in this mission. She was indeed bargaining.

AKA: Gipsy Danger is sentient and refuses to do anything without her pilots.

Summary
In general, people meet their soulmates when they’re teens or young adults, or over thirty in some cases; at least half of those people live a great distance from their fated ones, hence the feeling of cold, cold, cold that never really goes away. Of course, there are always lucky sods who are born with a slight warmth spread in their insides, who feel the comforting heat on the first day of kindergarten or school, or the first time they go to a playground. There are also some whose life is destined to be filled with thick sweaters and scarves; whose soulmates die before they have a chance to experience what it’s like to feel comfortable in winter climate.
Chuck’s nine when monsters start crawling out of the Pacific Ocean; a year later, his dad starts wearing long sleeves.
[soulmate au where the closer you are to your soulmate, the warmer you feel; the further you are, the colder. basically finding your soulmate is one big game of hot and cold.]

Summary
"You know, Mako, all those years I spent living in the past. I never really thought about the future," Raleigh says, honest, genuine, and of course he glances over at her, sparing a small smile. "Until now."
Mako's heart thumps. Raleigh huffs.
"I never did have very good timing."
And she's never been so torn on whether to hate or love someone like this until now.
or, I just could not stop thinking about that quote and started writing. So, the movie (focused around Operation Pitfall) but Mako realizes something about Becket

Summary
Steve Harrington is a Ranger Pilot. He is The Pilot, the left side of the Jaeger Ahoy Dingus, the only third-generation Jaeger with the most Kaiju kills under his belt. Steve has it all: a successful career, fame, fortune, a top-of-the-line Jaeger, and – of course – his soul mate in his Drift partner and Ahoy Dingus's right hemisphere pilot, Ranger Billy Hargrove.
But then the Category 4 Kaiju Mind Flayer attacks the Anchorage coast and rips Billy out of the cockpit, throwing him into the ocean below.
He and Steve were still Drifting when Billy drowned and died. And Steve — with the flight suit circuits burning his skin, with Billy's panicked mind screaming in his head, with Ahoy Dingus melting his brains because he should never be piloted only by a single Ranger –, Steve... Drift.
Alone. For eight excruciating minutes until he dragged himself to the nearest beach and collapsed there.
And the rest, as they say, is history.

Summary
(or: yancy is the ultimate wingman)
"I think you should tell him how you feel," Yancy says.
"Tell him how I feel?" Raleigh echoes. "Tell who?"
Yancy nods at the table a few behind theirs, where Herc and Chuck are arguing over whether it's polite to let the dog eat at the table.
"Herc?" Raleigh asks stupidly. "I don't feel anything for Herc."
Yancy rolls his eyes, saying nothing. God help his moron of a brother.

Summary
The cardinal rule of time travel is, to everyone's general understanding, don't mess with it.
Charlie Hansen has never been particularly good at being told no, so it's no great surprise when she wakes up in 2018 and immediately does exactly that.
--
"Until then, what can you tell me about the Kaiju War? Obviously, we don’t win in the next few years.”Charlie’s mouth twisted deeper and she laughed humorlessly. “We really fucking don’t, sir. Hey, is there any way I can talk to Newt and Gottlieb?”
“Why?”“Because one, they can fake the science to justify bombing the Breach, and two, Newt is the right kind of crazy to get me home. Gottlieb is anal enough about his numbers to make sure I get there in one piece.” Stacker and Herc blinked at the same time. She just stared back at them expectantly. “Well?”

Notes On A Star Wars AU by RoryKurago

Summary
This is the AU where Leia Organa and her brother pilot a Mark-1 against a kaiju off a coastline where the nearest population centre is a tiny fishing village called Jakku. She doesn’t find a boy in the rubble but one finds her later, after she takes command of the Jaeger Academy. She doesn’t want another protégé, but this one comes in with a sunshine smile and determination that if they stop the kaiju, they'll stop the poisoned rain that's killing his country.
This is the AU where Finn and Slip pilot Mark-3 GD-34, and when Slip's nerve fails he leaves bloody fingerprints across the front of a drivesuit helmet.
This is the AU where Leia finds another protégé in remains of Jakku years later--but this one is waiting. -

Summary
It's the single most nerve-wrecking mission of his entire career with the PPDC. It's only the deeply ingrained discipline that keeps Tendo from biting his fingernails while he watches Striker Eureka and Gipsy Danger attack the Breach.
