( pacific rim ) mun is crying wtf am i even doing...

[needmorecoffee]

[ There's a soft clink of a coffee mug on a flat surface, followed by the soft swish of a swivel chair rolling into place. ]

Look. Sweetheart. The way I see it? If you're okay with testing this out, then I've got no complaints.

You're not gonna ask her what she's got planned?

[needmorecoffee]

Hey hey, Raleigh, my man.

[ chuckles and sips his coffee ]

Nah. I think I'll let the little lady stew on it a bit. Poor thing's all twitchy like a new recruit.

[ambidexter]

New recruits don't have to worry about fighting kaiju, though, do they. [ You can tell he's humored by the thought, though. ] This is some kind of reverse psychology you're doing, then?

rolls in here

[synchronised]

[ Mako gives him a look. ]

"Sweetheart."

[ Really. Is that any way to talk to the new mission control? ]

uwu

[needmorecoffee]

[ Why, hello there, Miz Mori. ]

It was either that or "darling," but I figure that one might be a tad bit too familiar for a first date.

[synchronised]

[ All in a days work for you. Isn't that right, Mr. Choi? ]

You say that as if there'll be a second.

[gipsy_danger]

That is a good attitude to have, Tendo Choi.

[needmorecoffee]

[ Well. This is interesting. ]

I uh, [ yeaaaah, bit of a double take here

holy shit uh... Gipsy? ] Am glad you approve... uh. Well. Wow.

Gipsy?

[gipsy_danger]

[ so much amusement. ]

Gipsy Danger. Yes. Hello, Tendo.

[unfettered]

Nice to hear someone around here isn't whining about having their rights stomped on or how they've got Big Important Things to do back home.

hiiiii u gorgeous person you

[needmorecoffee]

[ At this, his brows go up. ]

Glad to be a breath of fresh air.

Still, if they've got jobs to see to, they might have reason to feel inconvenienced. Just a thought, ma'am.

[kaijuphile]

Run while you still can, dude.

[needmorecoffee]

Now that's something I didn't think I'd hear from you, Doctor.

I thought you'd be first in line for this.

[suicidemission]

Bully for you.

[ chuck isn't happy he's here therefore no one else should be ]

[needmorecoffee]

Nice to see you're still that radiant ball of sunshine, Junior.

[ He was never one to take any of your shit, Chuck. So yeah, your discomfort is his amusement. ]

[heracleidae]

You'll be singing pretty until she rolls the big guns out.

[ then a smile ]

Mr. Choi. Was wonderin' when you'd make an appearance.

[needmorecoffee]

[ Have a grin. ]

Mr. Hansen, nice to see you too, [ and because he remembers that Herc is more or less in charge now, he adds, respectfully ] Sir.

Big guns? No big guns for me, no sir. I am happy enough to oversee the deployment of individuals. Sit with my mugs of coffee and trade relatively funny banter with pilots who are my peers.

[ A beat ] But wisecracking aside, doesn't seem so bad from where am currently sitting. Sir.

[oldmanstriker]

You're easily the most laid back about all this, Tendo.

[Herc's sort of jealous.]

[needmorecoffee]

After everything we've seen, I figure laid back is an A-okay way to go.

How's it going, Herc? Or should I be calling you 'Marshal' at this point?

[rebuild]

Seems like you're one of very, very few who don't pitch a fit around here, Mr. Choi.

[needmorecoffee]

[ Consider this lifted mug a salute, boss. ]

I'm a man of simple needs, Marshal.

[yancy]

Do you ever complain?

[needmorecoffee]

Do the kaiju ever stop stompin' like Godzilla?

[bravedude]

"No complaints."

Do you even hear yourself?

[needmorecoffee]

Hey Doc. [ He nods at his coffee, his screens... ]

Yup. All clear and all good up here.
