- You both meet when Pentecost brings Raleigh back from Anchorage
- You're a PPDC ranger
- So, naturally, you're one of the first people Raleigh sees when he first arrives
- You just got back to the Hong Kong Shatterdome with your older brother
- You're both beyond exhausted, but when your eyes land on Raleigh
- Oh boy
- You turn to your dad to talk over the mission stats, doing your best to avoid eye contact with the handsome stranger
- "Herc! Chuck! Y/N!"
- S h i t
- You all turn at the same time to see Marshal Pentecost walking over towards the three of you
- With him are Mako Mori, one of your dearest friends
- And of course, Raleigh Becket, the man that miraculously managed to solo pilot his Jaeger back to shore after his brother was killed
- "Wait here." Your dad tells a very reluctant Chuck, who simply huffs in annoyance
- You, of course, being the loving sibling you are, toss him a childish smirk over your shoulder before putting your Hansenface on
- Mako approaches you first, a smile on her face as she bows
- You reciprocate the action with a slight nod and a smile
- Pentecost shakes you and your father's hand firmly and introduces you to Raleigh
- You simply shake his hand, staring straight into his eyes
- You're a Hansen, for chrissake, you're not gonna be fazed by gorgeous blue eyes and a ridiculously pretty face
- "You planning on letting go of my hand, Hansen?"
- You hadn't realized that you were still holding his hand
- You hastily drop it and apologize
- Your father shoots you a curious look but dismisses it
- Moving forward
- The next day, you're training with Chuck
- Raleigh pops up to scope out the 'competition', as your dear brother had deemed it
- So you kick it into high gear
- Chuck knows what you're trying to do, and apparently is very determined to make you look like a complete fool
- He uses his staff to swipe your feet out from under you and grins when you land hard on your back
- He realizes his mistake when you get up
- You're smaller than he is, but you're absolutely terrifying when you're angry
- Let's just say Chuck left the training room with more than a couple of bruises
- At lunch, Raleigh approaches your table
- "I saw you in the training room, you're good."
- "Thanks, Becket."
- "Call me Raleigh."
- Despite your brother's bullshit, you and Raleigh start flirting
- Alot
- You'll be walking to LOCCENT and this dumbass will jog to catch up with a dumb grin on his face
- "Hey, Y/N. Can I follow you where you're going right now?" "Oh, sure. I'm just going to-" "Because my parents always told me to follow my dreams." "Oh wow."
- His pick-up lines are literally the worst
- He prides himself on that fact
- And you keep falling for them
- Every. Single. Time
- "I think there's something wrong with my eyes." "That doesn't sound good-" "I can't take them off of you." "Chrissake, Raleigh!"
- He likes taking you out on small 'dates'
- I say 'dates' because there's literally nothing to do at the Shatterdome
- Sometimes you'll sit on the highest part of LOCCENT and watch the Jaeger engineers go about their day
- He loves the Gipsy Danger, just as much as you love Striker Eureka
- Your love for Jaegers and what you do really brings the two of you together
- So you eventually start dating [much to Chuck's chagrin]
- There's always so much going on at the Shatterdome, you two barely have time to see each other
- But when you do, it's kissing galore
- He's a really good kisser, but I mean, it's Raleigh
- What else did you expect?
- Sometimes you two really make the most out of your time together
- If you get my drift [I'm so sorry]
- Anyways
- After your father breaks his arm on a mission, you immediately volunteer to pilot Striker Eureka with your brother
- Obviously, Chuck says no
- It's a suicide mission, and Chuck loves you too much to have anything bad happen to you
- "Don't miss me too much, eh, little ankle biter?"
- Losing your brother was absolutelydevastating
- It hit you and your father hard
- Raleigh does his best to console you
- This ranges from holding your hand when you walk the halls to letting you into his room and holding you at 3 am as you cry over a nightmare
- He knows what it's like to lose a brother, so he does his best to keep you grounded
- He's your anchor, just as you are your father's
- Eventually, you and Raleigh get married!
- The breach is closed, and Kaijus are no longer a threat, so you happily retreat to Raleigh's hometown in Anchorage
