    Summary

    After Maelle's victory, Gustave is struggling to adjust. If it weren't so damn pathetic, it might even be funny: the broken engineer, unable to fix himself. But with Lumière in ruins, there is no time for self-pity. His people need him, and he won't let them down.

    Never again.

    Now if only Verso bloody Dessendre would stop accidentally falling asleep on his furniture…

    Or: Verso can't sleep unless Gustave is near. Somehow, it becomes Gustave's problem to solve — and the key to both their salvation. (Complete, updates twice a week)

    Summary

    Gustave Écrivain is a Head Mechanic of the Jaeger program, creator of the Painted series of Jaegers, and a former Jaeger pilot cadet.

    Verso Dessendre is one of the pilots of Painted Cypher, one of the fastest and most lethal Jaegers in the world, and currently without a co-pilot.

    Both of them have their past, their baggage, and a hundred reasons that they should not work together as Jaeger pilots. Yet the second they step in a sparring ring together, it is obvious from that very first exchange - they are meant to be.

    Can they overcome their respective pasts, and all of the obstacles in the present - to end up together in the one place that matters.

    The Drift.

    SPOILERS FOR THE GAME, LIKE SERIOUSLY

    Verso let Gustave die on those cliffs, but he couldn't bring himself leave him there.

    He should know that despite good intentions, his sentimentality has never ended well for him.

    This becomes even more evident to him as he watches the picto he contained Gustaves chroma in, dissolve into his skin.

    or

    Verso now has his own personal ghost- Gustave

    and Verso is the only one who can hear or see him

Slowly, Verso starts to see the man he left to die in a different light, as he also struggles with the guilt of knowing that he's slowly falling in love with him.
