AU Worldbuilding Meme (#2)

It can be an intimidating process trying to come up with a way to AU your character from their canon into another universe, which is why the AU Worldbuilding Meme is here to help you! Post a comment here to:
  • Brainstorm with others about adapting events into the game universe!
  • Discuss possible impacts of a Pacific Rim setting on your character, and how in-game elements may affect them similarly to in-canon elements.
  • Look over the AU Handbook and coordinate and discuss the impact of various events on the world over the last seven years.
  • Help each other flesh out and build past relationships and history for purposes of this game.
Please be respectful within this space, and take the chance to get some excellent brainstorming done together! Please direct AU worldbuilding questions requesting mod response to either the AU Handbook or the P.A.Q./F.A.Q. Thank you!

These two would be best friends. >>; I think they might actually be separated at birth... they kinda even look alike.

At the very least, they'll know of each other, and they've most likely met several times (I'm sure they have like, academic conferences for nerdy people who have bizarre social habits and unhealthy obsessions with kaiju?). Tenpou is a cryptozoologist who's worked with the Chinese and Japanese branches of the PPDC before transferring to Chile, so they'd be colleagues!

Oh man, they kind of do. They probably make jokes about that in the K-Science office. Hanji encourages it.

That'd be awesome! She was up in Alaska, but she's probably met him on business trips or at least talked to him via e-mail or on a ocnference call or met him at a conference or something. Academic slap-fights, go.

But yes, totally colleagues and metaphorical brothers in arms. They can geek out about kaiju together!

Aww! That's really rather cute~ Once they start talking about kaiju, they won't stop until days have gone by and they run out of coffee and pass out... And they can terrorize the rest of the Shatterdome together!

At first people were relieved, because it meant neither of them were lecturing other people.

Then they realized they were going to lecture other people together.
