Could we know more about the PacificRim AU please ?
It sound amazing !!!
Tumblr media
Just so we're clear this is what you're walking into. When I tell you I literally had this entire thing outlined to write I'm nOT EVEN JOKING so incoming wall of text. (And this is me holding back, please know. Talking about this has me ITCHING to write it...)
LET'S GO
Maverick as the outstanding pilot who, back then, could not drift with anyone. He could hit every simulation but couldn't hold a single partner, was about to be dismissed. Goose was his saving grace, man could drift with a ROCK if he wanted. They got along like a house on fire.
Goose dies when they're facing the lvl 6, they're still connected, Maverick manages to finish the fight enough that the Kaiju goes back but doesn't die. His jaeger suit burns into his left side, where Goose used to be.
Unlike GooseMav, IceSlider are the ice-cold-no-mistakes duo and they can't stand the other pair's chaotic strategies and way of fighting. They kept each other on their toes.
IceMav drifted together twice before 2022. Once before Goose's death, testing a new Jaeger and:
Once right after Goose's death, to finish off the lvl 6 Kaiju. Until 2022, they're the only pair of pilots to reach 101% sync.
Mav however disappears right after the fight, never to be seen again, remains as a Jaeger pilot legend. 17 kills under his belt.
CUE 2022 NEXT GEN
Maverick "disappears" as in, he grabs Rooster and Carole and moves to the Midwest, well away from any coastal cities and they live a lowkey life as much as possible. Of course, he adopts Bradley properly when Carole passes.
There were no pulled papers because Maverick wasn't at the PPDC Academy but there WAS an ugly fight between him and Rooster when Rooster enlisted, things were strained between them for a long time but eventually they fixed it.
Hangman? The Rinko Kikuchi/Chuck Hansen mix. Ice's adopted kid who got rescued when a Kaiju leveled Houston. It was IceSlider's fight to win and Ice took the kid in, no family left alive. But 10 years later Ice got sick from all the, you know, radiation exposure of those old Jaegers and also the stress of being a high efficiency pilot and couldn't continue, so 16yo Jake took up piloting with Slider. And when Slider got too old and also sick, he's the first pilot in line to solo a Jaeger. He's KNOWN for being the best active Jaeger pilot there is and he makes sure everyone knows that, too.
His Jaeger is a 6th gen machine, no nuclear core, etc etc.
Ice hates it, tries to hold him back as much as possible which results in A LOT of infighting but Jake also respects his father and Marshall, despite his public attitude.
He does give the old pilots a lot of shit in his interviews.
He's cocky, he's brazen, he's mean and he loves his family SO MUCH, Ice and Slider are all he has. He wants to prove he's just as good as Ice but he also wants to kind of show he's "earning his keep".
Ice resents himself for not letting Jake know any other life than the Shatterdome/Jaeger/Kaiju fighting, there was no way his kid would become anything other than not only a military brat but also an insane Jaeger pilot. Hopes that when their fight is done, Jake gets to live a more normal life and all but does have his doubts.
(And we all look at Iceman who let his One Get Away and then spent the next 30 years running the Kaiju Hunting Show)
I have many thoughts about Iceman/Hangman in this AU.
ROOSTER ON THE OTHER HAND. He knew a different/better life! And had a pretty peaceful upbringing or as much as someone in an alien-invaded world can have. But he did grow up with Maverick haunted and looking up to the Jaeger pilot stories. He decides to become a pilot for both of his fathers and also to prove he can do good. A bit of a world-savior complex.
Of course he and Hangman do not get along as soon as they meet, by the time he gets to pilot a Jaeger, Hangman has already racked up a bunch of field kills.
He turns up to be one of the few pilots able to pilot solo, too, so he gets one of the few 6th gen Jaegers. Competition with Hangman only gets worse from there and it grows even more impossible when they're stationed in the same shatterdome.
(For a good while he doesn't know Hangman is Ice's kid NOR that Ice is the 'Tom' he grew up hearing Maverick talk about. It's a whole thing.)
Phoenix doesn't solo pilot but she has a problem similar to Maverick's. She's HIGHLY selective with her drifting partners and they usually don't last more than a couple runs because they're never good enough for her.
Coyote solo pilots but he's also one of the few able to drift with Hangman. They hit it off when Javy graduated the Academy and went on to field practice, Jake was training to solo pilot.
Bob is one of the top sim scorers but he's not exactly looking to pilot, he's better with the Jaeger engineering and weapons development, but he also likes seeing how they work up close.
Payback is a little older, along with Rooster, he had a few drifting partners, most of them quit as the Corps started losing the war and as the program began to get underfunded, so he quit too. He gets called back when the lvl 6 wipes out half of the new gen pilots, including his last partner.
He's put with Fanboy who's just the most excitable new pilot and no one wants to deal with the kid who's a bit of a Jaeger groupie. Reuben thinks it's cute. They hit it off immediately.
Maverick gets brought in to try and help these new gen kids but also he's one of the few that can pull off piloting a 2nd/3rd gen Jaeger which is what THEY will have to do because lvl6 and above Kaiju have EMPs that simply disable Jaegers of 5th gen and above that are all electronic and not nuclear. He also doesn't want to drift with anyone but ends up drifting both with Rooster for one fight and with Ice for another, despite not wanting anyone else ever again inside his head. (It turns out a healing experience.) Also of course, when Hangster does get to drift and fight, they beat the IceMav 101% sync because that's how we roll.
....ANYWAY I TOLD YOU I HAD MANY MANY THOUGHTS ON THIS AND I UHHHH I SIMPLY.... I love PacRim (as in, I have official merch from the movie release okay) and I love TGM so yes, look at this wholeass AU, I have SO MANY MORE thoughts on it.

I hate how people will look at popular indie artists who had one or two songs go viral on TikTok and start making fun of anybody who listens to them. "Oh you listen to Lemon Demon, Will Wood, Jack Stauber, Glass Animals, and Mother Mother? Tsk, don't you know that is stupid TikTok neurodivergent white transmasc preteen music? It's so mid and bad you should listen to real music–" you are a pit of misery

they should invent a new type of "staying in bed for 2-3 hours after you wake up repeatedly opening and closing apps on your phone" where it makes you feel awesome and energized and emotionally fulfilled

Sometimes I wish we would start calling out the performative radicalism on this site for the poser bullshit it is. "Remember, it's always morally correct to kill a cop!" "Don't forget to firebomb your local government office!" "Wow, it sure would be a shame if these instructions on how to make a molotov cocktail got spread around!"
Okay. But you're not killing cops or firebombing government offices. You are posting on a dying microblogging website to a carefully-curated echo chamber that has radicalized itself into thinking that taking the absolute most extreme position on any subject is praxis but that anyone discussing the most practical way to effect actual change is your sworn enemy. You do not have the street cred OR the activist cred to be talking about killing cops, babe.
