WHO Chris Halliwell (aggrandize) / Cole Turner (devilsinthedetails)
WHAT Pacific Rim AU. Chris is the neurotic, traumatized would-be Jaeger pilot and Cole used to be the neural handshake test dummy for newbies on account of having a rare mental disorder. Then Chris came along.
WHEN uh ider the dates in PacRim. Sometime. It happens sometime.
WHERE SHATTERDOOOOME
WHY Leo why did you leave your family, Leo why did you leave your oldest son to go crazy, LEO WHY DIDN'T YOU TAKE GUARDIANSHIP OF YOUR YOUNGEST
This was just a formality, really. Their neural handshake had already gone smooth as could be when they were found out to be a compatible pairing. Chris had to keep telling himself that, because the stories he'd heard of other recruits trying to make sense of Cole Turner's mind while it split apart around them only made him wonder more and more what kind of fluke of nature had caused his compatibility. Maybe it was because he was broken inside, too, but that was too depressing a thought and he shoved it away.
Suited up and entering the test room, Chris took a deep breath to steel himself. This time was for real, for keeps, minds introduced to each other and pressed until they opened up and shared what needed to be in order to clear the air. There wasn't any room for surprises in a Jaeger; the kaiju weren't going to give anyone a moment's rest, so they had to be ready.
He could do this. He would do this. There was no other choice.

Now that's what he wanted to hear. Chris's memories were ones Cole could handle and he grinned widely at the fact that they had succeeded. So much for everyone thinking that they couldn't make this work. He couldn't help but laugh like a madman about this. They were proving everyone wrong and it was wonderful.
"How are you doing over there, Chris? Handling my brain well enough?" He didn't need to hear the answer thanks to them being connected, but it'd be better if he vocalized at first. Cole did remember his training, as long as it's been since he had gone through it. Tapping a button on the interface, he turned on the radio to everyone watching. "We looking good over there, eggheads? Or are you worried we'll break down and start crying because we can't handle each other?"
