Pacific Rim G/t - Tumblr Posts

Just watched Pacific Rim and a bit of Pacific Rim: The Black and the g/t potential. I’m already working on a little something, but here are just some quick thoughts.

Obviously, the whole plot is just tiny humans piloting these giant mechs so that works perfectly. The sheer vastness of a bot that can pick up trucks and toss them around like it’s nothing is incredible! Some of the shots just gave me shivers.

Adding onto this is the idea I like best of the bots being aware with their own personalities and connections to their pilots. Just a giant machine harbouring weapons made to kill giant monsters willingly working with a pair of humans that it could wipe out so easily. But it won’t because it’s fond of the tiny pilots they protect. And the knowledge that they choose to work with humans would definitely be a humbling reveal if it wasn’t known from the start.

It’s just such a cute idea! Just protective bots and their human pilots.

Here’s the Pacific Rim g/t fic I mentioned a while back.
