    Summary

    In an encounter with a Kaiju unlike any seen before, Jaeger pilot Daniel Cain is left dead for nearly ten minutes, until a miracle brings him back. But the ordeal has rendered him traumatized, disabled, grieving, and unable to ever enter the Drift again. Feeling a shell of his former self, he makes a name for himself in a PR campaign put on by the PPDC, until a request for something better finally gets fulfilled.

    In the failing L.A. Shatterdome, enigmatic Dr. Herbert West works on a secretive project with the goal of beating death—and reanimating a kaiju. When a man he’s only known through TV shows and interviews gets dumped into his lap, he braces for his projects to be derailed, only to realize that Dan could be the key to his ultimate success.

    New chapter posted every week, ideally.

    You do NOT need detailed knowledge of Pacific Rim to read this fic—I take heavy liberties with the lore and timeline. A glossary of some terms is also provided. Other terms and details are explained throughout.

    Summary

    “I told you I didn’t want to hurt you. Did you want to hurt me?” his tone was open, not a trace of accusation.

    Kabru swallowed the knee-jerk lie that formed in his throat. It burned on the way down.

    “A little,” he confessed, and it felt like falling.

    (Kabru is paranoid Laios views him as a monster, and has a very complicated way of confronting it.)

    Summary

    The day is saved. The demon is defeated, the kingdom is returned, and a new king is crowned. It’s the perfect ending to a tale of heroes and adventure… But Laios and his friends have never fit particularly well into storybook molds.

    Left with a hundred questions still to answer about the future, and amidst growing concerns about forces that would be all too happy to take that future away, they make their way as they always have: by holding fast to each other and figuring the rest out as they go.

    Summary

    Some days are better than others. Falin has always been good at moving forward.

    She buys new clothes. The old ones feel strange on her. They are too warm, and they are loose in a way that makes them feel more restrictive than comfortable.

    Falin leaves. She leaves, again and again.

    -

    Falin tries to figure out what life looks like after the end of a story she wasn't part of. Mostly a character study, with a little Falin/Marcille thrown in there for flavor.
