Summary
When you come to, it’s because the throbbing in your head is too much to bear. It’s all consuming, completely robbing you of your well-deserved sleep and you try to roll onto your back as you wake up.
Something is pinning you down, and you can’t breathe. Your chest can’t expand, and suddenly, you’re wide awake.
“Ship,” Price’s voice cuts over, tightly wound with stress, “do you copy?”
You can’t reply. It’s as if all the air has left your lungs and you can’t get it back anymore.
“The whole fuckin’ thing came down on ‘em,” Ghost grounds back.
Soap groans from beside you. You slowly start to breathe again, sucking in thin and dusty oxygen, but as you do, pain starts to bloom too. Concrete thuds somewhere in the distance, and more weight crushes onto you.
Oh.
You’re underneath the building.

Summary
You’ve been in love with your best friend for years, but you’ve been smart enough not to say anything about it. In a world where monsters the size of skyscrapers trample on every city within range, you know you’re too busy for something as trivial as love when you’re training to become the pilot of an equally massive man-made robot.
But when circumstances force you to step into the position as a Jaeger pilot far earlier than expected, you have to share a mind with Johnny, with everything from your memories to your emotions being shared through a mind link.
And that, you realise belatedly, means he’s going to find out. That you're in love with him.
Fuck.

Summary
“Where the fuck is Kyle?” you ask, voice raising.
“At the Capitol.” Price hums. “Probably. All we know is that we didn’t take him with us.”
You don’t understand. Kyle is his golden boy. Kyle is the one that the public loves, Kyle is the one who knows how to put on a fucking show. All you do is swear, have some sort of intimidation factor, and have the creativity to come up with half-decent ideas that you and Kyle manage to execute with efficacy, allowing the two of you to win the Games together. If they want a symbol, Kyle has already become the poster boy for ‘poor kid turned hero’. He’s the ultimate underdog, and everyone roots for an underdog.
So the question is, why you and not him?

Ghost looks straight into your eyes as he says, slowly, “You’re the resident medical professional.”
“Yeah,” you reply, somewhat confused at how carefully he enunciates his words. “What about it?”
“You get the last say when it comes to patient wellbeing,” he says.
You frown. This is getting nowhere. “Are you going to keep on stating the obvious or get on with it?”
“You need to pick,” he says, finally. He motions to the way you had just come out of, towards all the debris. “There are two patients in there, but you can only choose one to live.”
“What?”

The older man hangs up, tucking the phone away. He motions to the shed. “I want you to stand right there. Don’t go in, but make sure nothing comes out either.”
“I can’t fuckin’ detect anythin’,” Johnny points out helpfully.
“Yeah, I know, I’ll be just over there.” Price points to a tree casting shade on a small patch of weeds and grass. “I need to let Kate know about the situation.”
“That there’s a High Demon parading around?”
Price presses his lips together into a thin line. “I’d watch what I say, MacTavish.”
“Okay,” Johnny says slowly, because there is no protocol around the Seven High Demons, “so who’s Simon?”
Price smiles, but it’s not reassuring. “An expert,” he replies.
“On what?”
Price glances towards the shed. “On this type of situation.”

“I can take him,” Simon echoes.
Laswell raises an eyebrow. “I’m sure she tells you that you can. But last I checked, you were in hospital for eight months recuperating from the last time you tried to take on one of her brethren.”
“Excuse her,” you sniff, “what does she mean, tried to take on? I fuckin’ ate that bitch, that’s right. She’s in my stomach right now!”
“You don’t have a stomach,” Simon says, feeling inclined to point it out. Laswell seems to garner from context that he’s not talking to her, but talking to you.
“My demon equivalent, then,” you maintain.

In a world where soldiers are replaced with half-human half-cyborgs, the question of whether they’re human has always been in the air. For Subject 055-23213, colloquially known as “Simon”, it never really mattered to him. He just did his job, silently, obediently.

A whip cracks, somewhere further down the building, and screams follow.
