i just got the email that says my pacific rim dvd has shipped and then i read your fic and basically this comment is going to be me hugging you and rambling about how much i like you/r fic ok, are you ready for this

all the details!! i just?? i haven't read the novelisation yet, and i've only seen the movie once (that will so be rectified, and SOON) but i was curious, where did you get most of your info? there were so many points where i couldn't tell if you'd made them up or if they were written down somewhere, for which i applaud you~ half of the deal with scifi is just convincing readers to suspend their disbelief and accept what you tell them, and girl. GIRL. i believe you, tell me everything you want about this world and i will just accept it as fact, because it's just that good. you wove canon and fic together really well and that's all i ever want out of scifi/movie fic ;____;

it's the details that make this fic so great, i think. himchan doesn't like bullies; yongguk wants to save the children. the solid characterisation makes the crazy plot totally believable. i really liked the lines (that everyone else seems to have liked? lol) absolutely no time to fall in love and it's too late, it's too late.

the whole you're lucky to have me/i know exchange kind of hurt, like, in a good way.

I AM WRITING THIS BIT OF THE COMMENT AFTER ACTUALLY KNOWING YOU A LITTLE BIT jsyk (i'm awful about starting comments and going to another tab and forgetting about them sigh)

i love the way they so slowly like... blend together, you know? sharing a room and himchan thinking too loud for yongguk to sleep and being connected all the time is so great a;slkfjdlks ;___; and the little detail of yongguk knowing japanese after they drift, too! (idk why but i have this total thing for himchan + japanese, idk what that is, but him wanting to go to japan afterward totally got me, too! and yongguk + ramen otp, okay)

the beginning is so gritty and intense. the focus on nothing but their relationship -- and by extension, nothing but the fighting, because that is their relationship -- really brings home the fact that pacific rim is about survival and a friggin' war against giant monsters, lol. idk i just really like it! the imagery is perfect and i love how you describe himchan being all bruised up and sweaty and tired

the no time to fall in love line -- ok i like it because you don't see much of their relationship outside of working, because there really isn't one, because they don't have the time. it makes all of the emotions you do mention so much more intense and i am really having trouble putting this into words because THIS FIC MADE ME FEEL STUFF, OK

your writing gave me feelings ;_________________;

and i love that the last line is start. that is so perfect. ._____.

this does not accurately express how much i like this but ;____; just know that i like it a lot ok~~~

/hugs <3

waaah the details!! i got a lot of them from the pacrim wiki. :DD most things about the pilots' training schedule, shatterdomes, and basic jaeger/kaiju attack timeline were canon... some of the recruitment things and hana's project were my own bullshit. xD; ahh i'm so glad it worked for you!! ;U; it's been years since i wrote this genre (or any proper AU really), so kjhakwke~~~ THANK YOU MAN!!

the solid characterisation makes the crazy plot totally believable LET. ME. LOVE. YOUUU. ;A; no seriously i can't say how happy it makes me that you could buy into this. xD idk, pacrim is... even the movie required a huuuge suspension of disbelief, let alone a fanfic, so... /crawls

you don't see much of their relationship outside of working, because there really isn't one thiiiis~!! i didn't think about it explicitly, but you totally nailed my feels on this one. *__*;; I ALWAYS WONDER HOW BANGHIM WOULD BE IF NOT FOR B.A.P, YOU KNOW? like, how they always say they're the most unlikely friends and didn't get along to begin with?? but now they're inseparable......??? IT GIVES ME SO MANY FEELS. ;u; akjhakjwe lmao feels all around oops, but SERIOUSLY THANK YOUUU!!!

kekeke~ start ♥♥ n_____n
