A Levi Ackerman x fem!reader in a Pacific Rim Au
Summary:
When humanity stood on the edge of extinction, they built monsters to fight monsters.
Three years ago, you survived a Kaiju attack that should have killed you. Your co-pilot didn't.
Three years later, the Jaeger program is dying. Pilots are scarce, the Kaiju are evolving, and the world is running out of time. When Erwin Smith, Marshal of the Pan Pacific Defense Corps, calls you back to the Shatterdome, the message is clear: humanity needs every weapon it has left.
You must return to the battlefield and step into a Jaeger once more.
Returning means stepping back into the cockpit of Striker Eureka, facing the memories you tried to bury, and trusting someone new with the most dangerous thing, your mind.
There's only one problem. Jaegers require two pilots.
You have to work with a co-pilot you cannot trust and absolutely do not want in your head, a pair of brilliant scientists, and a Marshal of the Pan Pacific Defense Corps.
The world expects you to be a hero, but as alien titans emerge from the Breach, every choice carries weight and every battle leaves a scar, and some ghosts refuse to stay buried.
In short: People lying about being "fine" while fighting giant aliens
