SO I GUESS I AM APPING A SECOND. assuming that is allowed?? I think it's allowed. I hope so.
anyway. Simon of Gurren Lagann fame. THE ROUGH BACKGROUND right now is he and Kamina were from a small mining town in canada, and after a kaiju attack squished their town killing their parents kamina forcefully dragged Simon to the academy in alaska insisting they were drift compatible obviously and they were going to kill all the kaiju together. A confused and distressed simon followed and blah blah stuff happens a couple years later they are indeed piloting a jaeger, probably based in Nagasaki.
After a year of piloting together Kamina dies in a particularly brutal attack, and after dealing with his grief in his own way, Simon takes up the encouragement to enter the academy in chile to seek out others he can be drift compatible with cuz he's not done fighting Kaiju
Simon will be about 20 (i'm moving around timelines in this AU cuz obviously simon wasn't piloting a jaeger at 13) a veteran pilot, somewhere in the middle of his arc to becoming the badass who can destroy the heavens with his drill, and of course had all of the fame that comes with being a ranger tho honestly he always was kind of obviously in kamina's shadow.
AND SO BASICALLY OBVIOUSLY TOUCH BASE ME IF YOU WANT TO HAVE KNOWN HIM either from his time in the alaskan academy (would've been around 2018) or his time as a pilot (2019) or if you were just fans of his and kaminas (jaeger name pending).
