    Summary

    Gustave Écrivain is a Head Mechanic of the Jaeger program, creator of the Painted series of Jaegers, and a former Jaeger pilot cadet.

    Verso Dessendre is one of the pilots of Painted Cypher, one of the fastest and most lethal Jaegers in the world, and currently without a co-pilot.

    Both of them have their past, their baggage, and a hundred reasons that they should not work together as Jaeger pilots. Yet the second they step in a sparring ring together, it is obvious from that very first exchange - they are meant to be.

    Can they overcome their respective pasts, and all of the obstacles in the present - to end up together in the one place that matters.

    The Drift.

    Summary

    "Hope has always been a thing that burns. But maybe he can place just a little more trust into these mismatched hands that have determinedly carried him through and out of every hell he has sought to bury himself in."

    Gustave wants to make Verso feel good and not have to think about it. He succeeds, to an extent.

    Summary

    When Maelle brings Gustave back, there is a look in his eyes. Mutable and poised. Verso thinks he understands, but he underestimates it. And when he is lured into a darkened alleyway outside the central square, he expects anything but a gun to his head.

    —

    Verso discovers that Gustave was painted with some of Julie's memories, and he is forced to confront every decision he has ever made in the name of the Dessendre family.

    On the cusp of summer, an expedition begins.

    An epilogue to Maelle's ending.
