Title: When I want to Sit and Talk with you (I go to Ocean Avenue)  by GhostCwtch
Fandom: Pacific Rim
Character/Pairing: Mako Mori&Raleight Becker
Word Count: 247
Summary: When Raleigh can't find Mako, he knows to head for the ocean.
Why I Rec This Fic: Its a small moment, but its full of love and respect, perfect for the characters and their relationship (its also named after a song i loved when i was a teen so there is that)

He doesn't really understand, and he doesn't push her to explain because he knows that she would have already, if she could.

Title: morning gray by ienablu
Fandom: Pacific Rim
Character/Pairing: Raleigh Becket/Mako Mori, Tendo Choi
Word Count: 635
Summary: Ghost Drifting,Multilingualism "Vladivostok mornings are cold and dreary."
Why I Rec This Fic: Gosth drifting! The same/shared memories taken diffrently because they are different people.

Mako thinks of Sensei – discipline, control, getting up in the morning when you don’t want to – and pushes herself to sitting.

Raleigh thinks of Sensei – gently coaxing her out of bed their first stay in Vladivostok when the generators were failing and it was too cold outside her bed – and tears gather in his eyes. Mako brushes her fingers over his forehead.

Title: thunder cloud formation by Jedi Buttercup (jedibuttercup)
Fandom: Pacific Rim
Character/Pairing: Cheung Wei, Hu Wei, Jin Wei
Word Count: 700
Summary: "None of them may see the end of this Year of the Dragon, if the Marshal is able to implement his newest plan. But it is their year, and this is who they are. What they do."
Why I Rec This Fic: Pacific Rim has so many characters who deserve all the fanworks.

Title: Sasha by sadlikeknives
Fandom: Pacific Rim
Character/Pairing: Aleksis Kaidanovsky/Sasha Kaidanovsky
Word Count: 824
Summary: Names - its really not that important anymore anyway, as long as they are eachothers.
Why I Rec This Fic: The chosen topic made me smile - because it the feel of character roots in the world-building – Pacific Rim is not the story about one “all american hero“ saving the world, so i love when the different backgrounds are explored.

When they meet she is Lieutenant Aleksandra Dmitrievna Tsvetaeva and he is Cadet Aleksandr Fedorovich Kaidanovsky, and she does not think it likely she will be partnered with him.

Title: It's Not What I Promised Myself by Astrodynamicist
Fandom: Pacific Rim
Character/Pairing: Hermann Gottlieb/Vanessa Gottlieb
Word Count: 892
Summary: Vanessa and Hermann under the stars, musing about the path not taken.
Why I Rec This Fic: I really love Vanessa, which is weird because Vanessa barely exists in canon, but i love how people create her, an antithesis to fridges and side-lined female characters, to sexist behaivor for shipping reasons.

“I never could’ve been an astronaut - even before the accident, my vision wasn’t good enough…. So I was going to be an astrophysicist.”
“But then the war broke out.”
“But then the war broke out.”

Title: i give a little to him, i give a little to her by HybridComplex
Fandom: Pacific Rim
Character/Pairing: Newton Geiszler/Hermann Gottlieb/Vanessa Gottlieb
Word Count: 324
Summary: Kaiju Shoes and laughter. And Newt going “oh, I just fell in love again“
Why I Rec This Fic: Love, gooey, and foggy and not a problem – thats how i like my polyshipping (i like my polyshipping a million different ways of cause but also this one)

Title: After the Dawn by windsweptfic
Fandom: Pacific Rim
Character/Pairing: Angela Hansen, Hercules Hansen, Stacker Pentecost, Mako Mori, Chuck Hansen
Word Count: 753
Summary: Angela Lives!AU, “Angela Hansen hadn't lost a damn thing.“
Why I Rec This Fic: I just need more poly-fluff in my life and i guess more people could, also unconventional families doing everyday stuff.

Title: Name, Rank, Serial Number by GhostCwtch
Fandom: Pacific Rim
Character/Pairing: Raleigh Becket
Word Count: 330
Warnings: Body Dysphoria, Past Suicidal Thoughts
Summary: “It's Yancy's dog tags that Raleigh reaches for when the walls of the Shatterdome are closing in and his skin doesn't feel like his own.“
Why I Rec This Fic: I love stories about the dirft and how it affects people. The emotions here are thight and beautiful told.

Title: many masks unworn by Visardist
Fandom: Pacific Rim
Character/Pairing: Mako Mori&Stacker Pentecost, Herc Hansen
Word Count: 637
Summary: AU - setting, Makos blood family doesn´t take her in but Stacker does.
Why I Rec This Fic: super interesting AU, Mako and Stacker in this haunting poetic formality that is also a deep personal privat intimacy.

“My family is small now, and many masks go unworn. There is a daughter mask here with no daughter to wear it.” He unwraps the linen carefully, holding it out for her inspection. “Will you do me the honour?”

Title: well nobody made this war of mine by DeadPrince
Fandom: Pacific Rim
Character/Pairing: Mako Mori, Chuck Hansen, Tendo Choi, Wei Tang Clan, Sasha Kaidanovsky, Aleksis Kaidanovsky, Raleigh Becket, Hermann Gottlieb, Stacker Pentecost
Word Count:
Warnings: internalized transphobia, misgendering and transphobia
Summary: "snapshots about life, and gender"
Why I Rec This Fic: There are many different ways to do gender, and i love fanwork exploring that (my fav part is Mako)

it was supposed to be a victory, these shoes
gleaming red, they looked oh so beautiful, and the little cute buckles that she had stared at for days, her face pressed on the glass,

Title: A Cry Answered by imperfectcircle
Fandom: Pacific Rim
Character/Pairing: Mako Mori, Stacker Pentecost
Word Count: 5479
Summary:  "Fuyumi can read between the lines of Mako’s file. The justification for having Mako on the base is paper thin -- strings have been pulled and favours have been bartered, and somewhere along the line someone decided Fuyumi was the perfect combination of talent and expendability to be brought into this mess. It’s only slightly closer to a compliment than an insult -- the balance tipped by the child at the centre of this, nine years old and heart-breakingly brave."
Why I Rec This Fic: Lovely emotional story. The way therapy and language is handled is specially well done.
