Fortune favors the brave, but numbers do not lie

When Operation Pitfall failed everything went to hell. People were dying Kaiju were invading. Graduates turned in to Rangers J-Techs into warriors. Everyone forgot who they were Everyone became what they needed to be [Independent AU Pacific Rim OC Check about page before interaction]

I’ve found homes for most of the babies, actually. And…that crazy friend of Jane’s, the one who wears the douchebag shades? He said he’d take Ripley.

[kaijupocalypticarchive]

The mother? [ she has placed the kitten on her shoulder now ]

[entrailsandkaijudrifting]

[Ripley holds on with her little kitten claws and mews again.]

That’s the one. She’s special needs, but she likes him for some reason.

[kaijupocalypticarchive]

Straighten up, little one, and you won't fall. [ gently pushes the kitten up into a sit, Soyon it's a kitten not a soldier omg ] Well he seems like the type that attracts the less social.

[entrailsandkaijudrifting]

She likes laser pointers. [Newt is very pleased with this development.]

[kaijupocalypticarchive]

[ she is going to train this cat to be a killing ninja you realize this newton ] We shall see…

[He holds up Ripley Jr. The kitten mews and presses a paw against Soyon’s face.] See? She likes you.

[kaijupocalypticarchive]

[ that feels weird on her face. She can’t really…remember what a kitten feels like. She takes it from him and runs her fingers through the soft fur listening to it purr ] Hm…

[Returns her look of disbelief with his best puppy eyes.] They’re really cute. Did I mention that?

[kaijupocalypticarchive]

I can see the appeal to animal companions, yes…. [ but I have two already, look at you ]

[entrailsandkaijudrifting]

Working on it, I swear! It’s just, you know, not everyone likes cats or not everyone wants two cats or no one wants the cat who hisses if I look at her too long. [He scratches Ripley Jr. under the chin.] Your mom is very mean to me.

[kaijupocalypticarchive]

[ there’s this look of utter disbelief, they are going to be stuck with kittens. No one is going to take these kittens and they’re going to be stUCK WITH KITTENS 

Soyon may or may not like animals in general ]

“Do you think this is a game? We could die!”

[crashingtheshatterdome]

"Or," Crimson suggested, "We could kill the monster, make the Shatterdome a safe place again, and totally get back at it for slashing my friend." It seemed like a perfectly good idea; get the awesome girl with the sword to help him hunt down this monster thing that had hurt Gips. He would’ve enlisted Striker as well, but the Aussie ex-Jaeger was nowhere to be found… Oh well. Crimson was still pretty sure he could convince this girl.

[kaijupocalypticarchive]

He seemed pretty determined about this. She felt her jaw tighten. If they worked together a plan maybe it was worth it. Calculating the risk still weighed out higher than if she went in alone. "Fine. But we do this my way, and as I say. The last thing we need is two more injuries added to our roster..."

[Any Muse; HELLO! ] ┼

Send a ┼ for my muse’s reaction to walking in on your muse:

6. Struggling to breathe

"Woah! Hey, are you alright?" Tendo ran up to the woman standing on the side of the room, seemingly choking. "Oh my god, what- what’s wrong with you?"

[kaijupocalypticarchive]

Broken ribs had a tendency to feel like you were suffocating. Lucky for her the rib wasn’t puncturing a lung, but it did feel like it. She leaned heavily on the wall, taking large, gasping breaths but it just didn’t feel like her lungs were expanding. The pain was blinding. This is what people got when they meddled with black market. Soyon was just trying to help someone.

She flailed a hand at the approaching Tendo, “S-stop.” she winced, breathing still finding itself unable to catch up. “F-Fine. I-I’m f-fine.”

[pacific-resistance-blog]

"No you’re not fine, you need to get to medbay." Tendo persisted, moving to support her as he pulled her away from the wall. "Come on, you gotta get to a doctor."

[kaijupocalypticarchive]

She had seen worse. She had felt worse. But the fretting wasn't helping. She tried to wave Tendo off, but he tugged her and the sharp pain protested her resitance.

"I-" Soyon needed to find Newton. She couldn't get caught up in the system here. Too many questions would get asked. Too many that she couldn't answer. "P-Please just...t-take me to K-Science..."

[kaijupocalypticarchive]

…Are we allowed to keep pets?

[entrailsandkaijudrifting]

No one has stopped me yet.

[kaijupocalypticarchive]

[ raises a brow at his lack of regulation but she knows better that to push it ] Then I suppose you have a cat then, and the others?

[entrailsandkaijudrifting]

[kaijupocalypticarchive]

Soyon tried not to be too defensive about the drifters. She was quite protective.

"Perhaps I am a medium."

[panpacificdamagecontrol-blog]

She allowed herself to crack a grin, looking Soyon over. “Perhaps you are. So what brings you to this side of the ‘Dome anyway? —And from the rafters, too?”

[kaijupocalypticarchive]

"I like to expand my horizons..." More importantly spy on others whom she is unfamiliar with but that's no matter.

[ It’s prety obvious she doesn’t know how to handle an animal ]

…why do you still have kittens…?

[entrailsandkaijudrifting]

Because I haven’t been able to find homes for all of them. And I’m keeping Ripley Jr.

[kaijupocalypticarchive]

"Sort of…" She shifted her posture trying. To maybe attempt to look a little more friendly. "I work with Doctor Herman and Newton Geiszler."

[panpacificdamagecontrol-blog]

Radhika frowned, trying to remember a Soyon from K-Science. Then again, there were too many names in her head, and too many faces, and she gave up trying to place her.

"—Huh. Like, the both of them? Together? Without them trying to kill each other?"

[kaijupocalypticarchive]

Soyon tried not to be too defensive about the drifters. She was quite protective. "Perhaps I am a medium."

[kaijupocalypticarchive]

The name caught the survivor’s attention. Then her face sort of gets a sad look.

“Media relations…” she repeated quietly. She frowned suddenly, the attention brought to herself. “Soyon.” she replied, but didn’t say much else.

[panpacificdamagecontrol-blog]

Well, this was getting more bizarre by the moment.

"Yeah…Soyon, huh? Are you—new? I don’t think I’ve seen you around here before."

[kaijupocalypticarchive]

"Sort of..." She shifted her posture trying. To maybe attempt to look a little more friendly. "I work with Doctor Herman and Newton Geiszler."

She looks up at the rafters, then back at the woman in front of her. Yeah, that’s totally not weird at all.

"—Radhika Parekh, PPDC Media Relations. And yourself?"

[kaijupocalypticarchive]

The name caught the survivor's attention. Then her face sort of gets a sad look.

“Media relations...” she repeated quietly. She frowned suddenly, the attention brought to herself. “Soyon.” she replied, but didn't say much else.

[kaijupocalypticarchive]

….what is that?

[entrailsandkaijudrifting]

…a kitten? Uh, this is Ripley Jr. Ripley, this is Soyon.

"The rafters." Well at least she's honest. "Who are you?
