    Summary

    In fact, Brainstorm spends seven minutes locked into a state of sheer terror, his optics fixed on Perceptor’s stony, unmoving expression as Perceptor works over the dead console, speaking low and steady to Rodimus on the Lost Light until even the emergency short range comms give out. After that, it’s eleven minutes of wild fleeing in root mode over rough terrain in a howling blizzard that makes using anything other than their legs inadvisable. Brainstorm is pretty certain the electromagnetic interference is so intense he could fly nose first into rock and not know it until the second of impact.

    Perceptor's still going through some things after the sparkeater incident. The second sparkeater incident, which is a lot of sparkeater incidents to have in such a short period of time. Brainstorm is too. They're both working through it. A temporary stranding on a survey mission gone wrong gives them some time to work through it a little faster.

    Summary

    In the aftermath of the time travel incident, Perceptor made a resolution to get to know his lab partner better. He didn’t anticipate that he’d grow so fond of Brainstorm in the process. Blindsided by a rare and deadly illness, he realizes that he’s miscalculated the depths of his regard.

    Perceptor is determined to study and cure the disease with Brainstorm none the wiser. Unfortunately, feelings have never been his area of expertise.

    Summary

    “But don’t you know?” she asked. “Can’t you feel it? Did it get lost in that big heart of yours? One of your children is waiting for you.”

    Yoshi jerked as if electrocuted. She couldn’t mean to say what it sounded like she was saying.

    That tiny fourth turtle with the blue-patterned shell and bright gold eyes—the first one to smile and reach up to be held, the one that had fallen during their frantic escape and was left behind in the crush of the destroyed lab—the one the little shrine in Yoshi’s room belonged to, even though he didn’t have a proper photo, or a decent idea of what Blue would have looked like grown into personhood—the one that a corner of Yoshi’s heart belonged to, even now, even still—

    “He’s alive, my darling,” his mother told him. In the dream, she sounded so certain. The clan symbol on her obi seemed to glow, a warm, shining thing that cast all darkness and doubt aside. “Go and bring my grandbaby home, okay?”


    Or: Leonardo grew up in a Hidden City orphanage, but he had a home waiting for him all along.

    Summary

    “Who are you?” Leo asks stupidly.

    “Gio,” the probably imaginary turtle replies.

    Leo’s mouth runs off before he can stop it. “Just Gio? Like Cher?”

    God, he thinks. That was stupid, Leo. Not the time or place, Leo. You’re in the prison dimension. You’re dying here and you can’t even cut the jokes now? Raph was so right about you.

    But the imaginary turtle surprises him by smiling slightly, the corners of his mouth pulling just barely upwards in a way that somehow completely transforms him. Not the time or place for jokes or smiling at them but here they are. Like company.


    Or: a long-lost brother takes the long way home.
