[Chuck thought, once, that he and Mako would end up in the same Jaeger. Because they were pretty much the same age, and both perfectionists and both of their fathers were Mark I pilots and it just-- made sense. It should have been exactly like that except that it wasn't and Chuck's never asked for the full story. Only knows that it didn't work out according to plan and whatever. He doesn't need her when his dad's just as good of a replacement and his uncle's out of the piloting picture now and so the Hansens went into Striker and Mako went into... retrofitting old Jaegers.
A bloody waste of time if you ask him but he really doesn't spend that much time thinking about it because what Mako does with an old wrecked Jaeger is completely not relevant to what him being a pilot.
Until it is. The Marshal heads to Alaska to try and hunt down Raleigh Becket, the washed up has been who's only legacy is to have survived crashing a Jaeger when his brother didn't and that's just wrong on so many levels. Mako stays behind in Hong Kong and Chuck arrives with his dad and Striker right after Pentecost leaves. Bringing Gipsy Danger back to the scene is still a waste of time, if you ask him, but so long as Becket stays out of his way, he thinks he doesn't care.
(He does but no one has to know that)
Chuck ends up in the dinner line next to Mako, honestly he didn't plan it but since he's here, he does have a question for her.]
So how's it feel to know all your hard work might be for nothing?
