Far above the ground, on the shoulder of Jaeger "Ice, Ice Baby", or simply Baby, as Zhu-li endearingly referred to it, a slim figure in a blue teddy bear hoodie sat with a poetry book on her lap, head resting on Baby's neck while she scribbled some lines:

...Below the thunders of the upper deep,

Far far beneath in the abysmal sea,

His ancient, dreamless, uninvaded sleep,

The Kraken sleepeth, faintest sunlights flee...

Her thoughts today were rather morbid, she would admit. Then again, how else was she supposed to feel about being sent to fight monsters like the kaiju? After seeing thousands killed by them. Even the Atlesian army barely held off that last one!

"That's where we come in huh? ANGELs, a necessary evil, destroy evils greater than ourselves and all?" she patted Baby's cheek gently. To her the Jaegar wasn't just another tool or machine, but a living, breathing, comrade at arms. Or maybe she'd just grown attached to it after all those repeated drifts?

Distantly, she heard the alarm sound, and groaned. The thief scribbled a few final lines in her book, before storing it and sliding down Baby's hull on a rope for breifing.

...Then once by men and angels to be seen,

In roaring he shall rise and on the surface die.
