TL;DR encouraged but you can go all out, we won't be word counting here)!
Gaige the Mechromancer // Borderlands 2
It's hard to find Gaige gifs.no subject

Plus he has red hair. Most people with red hair are pretty awesome.
He changed her mind real fast about Pikachu's being too corporate and if she gets the chance she wants to see him try to wrestle Krieg. He looks like the kind of guy scrappy enough to try that even if he would lose horribly...because she's pretty sure Krieg is inhumanly strong even by this worlds standards.
But all the same, he's cute.

Gaige is a very amped up person, so anyone who can take all that energy and just...casually dismiss it without being rude is fascinating to her. It's like those kung fu movies where a dude just gracefully turns everyone's attacks around on them. Except in this case it turns all of Gaige's energy into affection for the mysterious red head!
While Gaige doesn't crush on girls a lot, she has a few types and "Smokey voiced, sultry and confident bombshell" is on the list. Even higher on that list is "Scientist" so Ivy qualifies in a number of areas to be someone Gaige wants to be when she grows up.
...except...you know with robots instead of plants.
Maybe she can learn to make some kind of plantbot.
If Ivy ever got around to telling Gaige about her efforts to better the world through eco-terrorism she would gain like five levels of respect in Gaige's book. After all she is little miss Anarchy and smash the system. You can't get much more badass in her book then using something beautiful and wild and free to take down corporate fat cats and greedy politicians.
TLDR: If Gaige had access to DC comics she would read every issue Ivy and Harley were in, and write angry letters to the company about why they weren't together yet, and write smutty fanfictions, and have echocasts of herself reviewing the latest books and movies starring her favorite fern fused femme.

OK so...I headcanon that as the Vault Hunter picked themselves up out of the snow and dragged their sorry asses to Claptrap's house Gaige was immediately impressed by the shirtless wonder and his ability to just shrug off how cold it was. Jokes were probably made about dangerously pointy nipples.
Over time Krieg, like the other vault hunters became Gaige's new family. She looks at Krieg like an older brother who has embraced anarchy so much that his brain is in literal anarchy. He is so friggin' bad ass that it's scary and it probably took her a few weeks (How long do we figure the game takes? Months?) before she was fairly sure he wouldn't one day snap and kill them all.
Arriving it such a peaceful (mostly) but interesting world full of monsters is one thing. Gaige can handle a world where shooting isn't the primary form of problem solving. She lived in society before she can live in it again.
But Pandora has changed her. Taught her what it really means to be hardcore. Krieg is a reminder of that. Krieg took the worst Pandora had to offer and screamed in it's face. And now here he is living among others and making it work.
Gaige adores her smelly, solid slab of beef in a gas mask older brudder figure. Tina can keep Brick, Gaige has Krieg and will do her best to keep up with him when he flies off the rails no matter the cost to her own sanity.

With his square jaw, sarcasm and military backround, she thinks of him kind of like a young Axton, her surrogate father figure among the vault hunters. She will quickly find out that Jean is no where near as badshit crazy as Axton is (Because to be a vault hunter you gotta have a certain level of don't give a fuck when it comes to mowing down hundreds of humans daily (Possibly in a matter of hours)
But he's nice and she enjoys knowing she can fluster him. If she ever actually started to consider him as a romantic interest she'd get totally awkward and weirded out because, how do I teenage girl?
But there's plenty of time for her to learn about the real man behind the good looks!
