I’m Filipino Chinese The Struggle Is Real

Pacific Rim fandom headcount!

Raise your hand and reblog and/or like this post if your love Pacific Rim.

I know there are very few of us left, but I’m curious to know just how many… specially now with Tumbr @staff​‘s Purge going on.

*sigh* I really wish there was something we could do to cancel THIS apocalypse.

I am so happy rn omg

No one has done it to my knowledge, so take my quiz on which Pacific Rim Jaeger you’d pilot.

😨

Do y'all wonder if there was an Octonaut we didn't know about that got kicked off the crew or something

or died...

I just realized why i kin him hahaa

let's talk about captain barnacles again

my favorite character!! he has issues <33

specifically, he has self preservation issues. he's always getting frustrated with Kwazii, or just physically holding him back, calling him "reckless," etc. Always telling him to be careful; and what does Kwazii always say?

And he's right; he is always careful. Aside from a couple bumps on the head here and there, Kwazii almost never gets hurt, no matter how much danger he puts himself in.

Barnacles on the other hand:

threw himself into literal acid.

threw himself under a giant falling ice chunk.

threw himself on top of the cone snail, AFTER already getting stung.

stood infront of an out-of-control Gup-B.

grabbed an actively chomping shark by the face.

and has been stung by jellyfish three times; once in this image, once in The Manatees, and again in season 5.

and of course, we all know The Manatees Episode™.

I think one reason he's always worried about Kwazii not being careful, is because he's not careful himself, so he believes that Kwazii's going to get hurt one day. He doesn't want that.

(I'd like to note that in all of those situations, he was trying to protect someone else, and I love that—but also Kwazii is very protective of his friends and the creatures he meets too, which just makes Barnacles see himself in him even more. furthering his worry.)

She could punch me and I’d say thanks 🤪💅🏽

bestie got her medical degree when she was fourteen. girlboss moment

Alien then realizes "Wait...humans also feed family and friends. Jim ensures I don't skip meals. Am I...family?"

"Am I family?"

Jim looked across the table and smiled as he passed a few more rashers of bacon over to Chix.

"We've served together for over eight years. You're the godfather of my son."

Jim's toddler, Charlie, sat on the floor playing a simple game of trying to grab Chix's tail as its tip wriggled back and forth.

"You helped Akiko get to the med bay when she went into labour."

Akiko was in the kitchenette area of the quarters, pouring herself another cup of coffee, "I think you were more scared than I was," she laughed to herself.

Chix almost shuddered at the memory. Egg-laying was so much more civilised. There were fewer fluids involved.

If Jim noticed Chix's discomfort, he said nothing. "You've saved my life, at least half a dozen times, I gave you an open invitation to come over to breakfast every morning, last year we went a whole parsec off-course to get you back home in time to see your oldest hatchling get married."

Chix nodded, "screw the company and its schedules," he muttered under his breath. It had been Jim's mantra during the entire trip.

Jim shook his head, that same smile still on his face. "And you only ask now, NOW, after all that, if you're family?"

Akiko joined them at the table, giving her husband a little kiss on the cheek as she sat down, "Chix," she said with all seriousness, "you were family the day you came aboard."

Chix almost felt like crying. Though that might have been because Charlie had finally caught his tail. The little one had a strong grip.
