Summary
Takashi Shirogane is a veteran of the Kaiju War with a few too many nightmares to keep him company. Following four years of self-imposed isolation from the public eye, the once legendary Jaeger pilot feels distant and adrift. No matter how highly the others think of him, he is certain he has little more to offer the world.
Keith Kogane is a Garrison drop-out with a few too many marks on his criminal record. Four years skirting in and out of Hong Kong smuggling rings and two more kept to heel by an organization he desperately wants to leave have left him angry and jaded. He’s long given up hope of moving beyond a past that casts a dark shadow over him everywhere he goes.
But Keith and Shiro soon find themselves copilots of humanity's latest war machine — a Jaeger called Striker Obsidian. Bearing a terrible and potentially unethical secret, yet as the last real gambit to turn the tide of war, it carries a monumental weight upon its shoulders. But a team-up between a world-weary pilot and drop-out delinquent might be just what the Garrison needs to end the Kaiju threat for good — and just what Shiro and Keith need to finally make amends with their demons.

Summary
“Dave,” says Karkat neutrally, “why are they beating him up?”
And your mouth runs dry.
(Or: Wherein a human male watches rom-coms and his attempts to evade his emotional issues create an undesired cultural situation with a potential love interest.)
