Disclaimer: I don't own Pacific Rim or any of its characters, wishful thinking aside.

Authors Note #1: This is my first Pacific Rim story, so I am pretty much testing the waters. I have not yet had the pleasure of reading/watching any other source material other than the movie itself. So, in respect to that, this story is based on the material we have been given during the movie and the movie alone.

Warnings: This story is meant to fit in post movie. *Contains: adult language, adult content, possible consent issues, sexual content, movie spoilers, smut and more!

Prologue

He would like to preface this whole clusterfuck by saying that this was so not his fault. It was an accident. Really.

Hermann had been wearing his every other Friday sweater on a Thursday, he hadn't slept in twenty-four hours and the whole thing had been weirding him out way too much to focus. He can multi-task – obviously, but asking him to do that after three cups of coffee, a possible sweater vest conspiracy, no sleep and an entire box of chocolate covered donuts is a bit of a stretch – even for him.

In fact, if you wanted to get picky, this was actually all Hermann's fault. Technically.

Okay, so maybe that's a bit of a stretch, but hey, rockstar, remember?

It wasn't like he knew this was going to happen. In his defence, this wasn't some grand conspiracy to get Hermann Gottlieb freaky and naked. He was a genius, not a frickin' fortune teller.

He didn't mean for things to go all pear-shaped any more than he'd meant for his lab partner to get a mouthful of bright purple goo and turn into a hybridized version of the Incredible Hulk and Pepe 'le Pew all mushed together into one, rather unstable, yet mind-numbingly hot package.

Not that he hadn't enjoyed it and all, but christ on a-

Okay, so, maybe he was getting a little bit ahead of himself here.


A/N #1: Thank you for reading. Please let me know what you think! Reviews and constructive critiquing are love! – I realize this is shorter than all get out – but it really is just a prologue of sorts. The next chapter should be up tomorrow.
