Hermann taking the seat without a second thought and letting Newt push him in close to the table because Newt’s done this for years (◕‿◕✿)

Hermann reaching over in the middle of an insult to give Newt a bite of his dessert (。≖‿≖。✿)

Newt sucking the spoon into his mouth and maintaining eye contact while he licks it all over until Herman has to feign outrage and steal Newt’s spoon in return (。≖△≖。✿)

old married couples and their childish antics 。:゚(。ノω\。)゚・。

My sales job brain sometimes mixes with my fandom brain and then I think about Hermann and Newt buying a bed together.

Newt would want them to have the softest, bounciest spring mattress which would make Hermann feel every single movement he makes and annoy him to no end. Like, the guy can’t even give him some peace and quiet when he’s asleep!

While Hermann would insist sleeping on the hardest latex brick he can find because he believes it supports his spine better and it stores body heat to keep him warm at night. With a viscoelastic polyurethane topper cos actually the mattress alone is too hard after all but he’s not gonna admit it.

In the end, they’d get separate mattresses, but in the same bed.

Ezekiel’s Page – (Sam Winchester’s Journal – Entry #29)

Wherever I go, it’s nothing but fields of ruin and stretches of desolation. It’s even worse than what I expected, even if I had heard the stories through the angel grapevine what Sam Winchester went through the last few years. The Trials didn’t make things better of course, but I was hoping to find at least a preserved space. The more I’m wandering into Sam’s mind, the more I’m witnessing desert landscapes and rivers run dry, burnt forests and hills, all haunted by voices in the distance and shadows of people long gone.

I don’t know how long it will take to heal this man from the inside. I guess I’ll have to play God in some ways to revive the forests and plains, rebuild lost memories and dreams, and breathe new life into pieces of a soul shattered in places Sam himself must ignore. Needless to say it won’t be an easy task, particularly seeing how weak I am at the moment.

Angels who walked the Earth before the Fall told me once that even the most devastated human mind was a complex work of art from God. I see what they meant now, but unfortunately, I have no time to marvel on its beauty.

I’ve got work to do.

THIS. A MILLION TIMES, THIS.

ALSO THE ONE THING I WANT TO KNOW IS THAT I want to know why Hermann is your favourite.

OH GOD THE WORST AND BEST THING YOU COULD ASK ME.

My first reason for liking Hermann is kind of like what I observe most people’s reasons are for liking Newt — I identify really, really strongly with him, or I’d even go so far to say as he’s what I see myself as wanting to be because I see that possibility. I’m not good at math and I’m not left-brained, I’m nowhere near him intellectually, but I would still like to have an impact on the future, an impact on the world, with my cruddy health and body. And in the universe of Pacific Rim, he was living proof that that was possible.

You don’t see that in many movies. If someone in a sci-fi movie is disabled or has some sort of crippling medical problem, they usually have something else that ‘makes up’ for it (Professor Xavier, for example). But Hermann doesn’t need anything to ‘make up’ for it because he’s an amazing, talented, genius person even with his setbacks. His setbacks aren’t even really setbacks at all. 

Another reason I really like Hermann is because I think he and Newt both really breach the line between comic relief and serious characters. Like, at the beginning of the movie, you see Hermann as a character, he has unique speech patterns and distinctive characteristics, he almost seems like a parody of himself. But as the movie goes on and you get to the end you start to see that wow he’s not the comic relief, he and Newt are actually really fucking important to the story. I really dislike the ‘comic relief’ trope in filmmaking where you can only be one or the other, a heroic character that contributes to the plot, or the funny one. I love how Newt and Hermann, but Hermann especially to me, kick character tropes in the face. Hermann’s the rambling British scientist who talks a mile a minute and thinks he’s smarter than everyone…. but oh, right. He also comes up with the solution that’s ultimately used to save the world. You can be a total character and an important person. Wow. 

And I love the small details that Guillermo chose to put in the movie regarding Hermann, little things, so we don’t see his entire story but get enough that we can start putting the pieces together. The toy airplane in the drift, the eye test in the drift, the saluting, his big army parka, even little shit like the teacup on his side of the laboratory, he’s a secondary character but he’s a fully fleshed out person. In my opinion he’s a prime example of a perfect secondary character.
