    Summary

    Self control was a beautiful skill to master.

    Needed not from any sort of desire for a perceived stoicism but rather a matter of avoiding complete social suicide.

    What could be so detrimental as to require so much focus?

    Knockout didn’t like to make a habit of answering that question.

    In other words: Knockout has a fainting disorder and hides it by keeping a tight hold on his emotions, and Breakdown makes it hard to not be emotional.

    Summary

    When Thundertron and his Star Seekers converge with deadly force upon a battle between Autobots and Decepticons, Megatron and Optimus find themselves shipwrecked and separated on a far-flung and desolate planet. Half-dead and cut off from their respective forces, subject to the elements and wildlife of this strange and watery world, the only way to survive may be to don the alien shapes of its denizens.

    Reshaped and reborn in strange hybrids of metal and organic flesh, Megatron and Optimus strive to rejoin the battle, and take revenge on Thundertron. But their new forms present new challenges, isolation brings with it unwelcome memories, and as the days stretch on with no sign of rescue, meaning begins to slip away, and strange longing to take its place...

    Summary

    “You’re not made of metal. I— I don’t know the limits of what you’re made of. I don’t know how much is safe contact, and when it turns into— when you— when I—

    This is the part where Noah is supposed to get it. The part where he’s supposed to understand the depth of what Mirage has just told him, where he realizes the danger he’s in if Mirage so much as simply moves wrong at the wrong moment, the moment where he lets go and never comes near him again. He waits; waits for it all to click into place in that biological processor of his, waits for the moment he pulls his hands back to himself, waits for his face to morph into entirely justified fear.

    “I could break you, Noah, I could…”

    He’s not prepared for Noah’s expression to go soft.


    There's only one way for someone to learn how much strength to use when handling something, and that's through experience.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Fallout Transformers AU taken in a really cool direction. Elements of reincarnation, holoform shenanigans, Dadwave, in-depth but incredibly natural world building, and impressive attention to detail in characterization and tone. Follows TC, Jazz, Soundwave, and others searching for reignited sparks of loved ones on Earth. Issue is, sparkbond proved that, where once stood an unpredictable and ornery seeker now stands a human gun-for-hire with no memory of his former self.
