    Summary

    Rodimus could not be happier for them. Really. Truly.
    He always feels so warm spending time with them, so full of affection, but as the evening creeps along and Minimus calls the end of the night the warmth starts dissipating from his frame, and as he exits Megatron and Minimus's hab and heads to his own, waving goodbye to Drift and Ratchet as they retreat to theirs, there is nothing left but the cold something that always makes its appearance in his spark and the feeling that it'll never quite be enough.

    Summary

    Prowl of Petrex has signed himself over to the Primacy as an indentured servant. His contract, however unreasonable, seems worth weathering after the fall of Praxus in exchange for the safety of his only remaining family. He knows he’s likely to spend the rest of his life beneath the boot of the Prime, will never grow his family, and will be a footnote in the history books. But when Prowl is presented with the rare opportunity to renegotiate his contract with the Primacy, he leaps at the chance. The price of freedom, however, may be steep…

    Meanwhile, Jazz keeps himself busy these days as part of the ragtag group of revolutionaries who have been drawn to a charismatic young archivist by the name of Orion Pax. He’s been working on the outskirts of the Cybertronian caste system his entire life, and has a lifetime of tricks from just about every trade. Being Orion Pax’s righthand mech is a hard enough job, but it only gets harder when the unrest comes to a head, changing all of their lives at once, and putting Jazz at the center of the very system he has fought against…

    And then, of course, that’s not even bringing up the illegal sparkling, Senator Proteus’s machinations, or Prowl’s TacNet acting strangely.

    Summary

    A sudden upheaval, an unexpected change, chaos and destruction and tragedy.

    From one perspective, at least.

    -

    When Sentinel Prime’s younger son, Rodimus Prime, is stolen from the palace by a great and powerful dragon, Sentinel makes the decision to elevate over a thousand citizens of Iacon into an order of knights and sends them on a quest: bring him his son, safe and unharmed, and the head of the beast whole stole him away in the first place. To whichever knight succeeds in this endeavor, Sentinel Prime promises a boon.

    Ratchet did not expect to be picked as one of these so-called ‘knights’. Nor did he expect that, when finally confronted with the dragon in question, that he would be reunited with someone he never thought he'd see again.

    Summary

    Hot Rod wonders if he's cursed by something he did in a previous life. Normal mechs don’t have to deal with the slag he gets put through—namely getting stranded on a Quintesson-occupied planet with no means of contacting home, encountering strange, mutilated Cybertronians seemingly built just to kill Quints, and being ordered to babysit said strange, mutilated Cybertronians.

    All of this is to say that everything currently wrong with Hot Rod’s life can be attributed to the stray that followed him home: one maybe-empurata victim calling himself “Thunderclash”.

    -

    Before the Kaiju came to Earth, Thunderclash used to dream of being an astronaut, and after the longest two decades of his life, his boyhood dream has somehow come to fruition.

    Sure, it’s been a bit more fraught than he’d imagined as a kid—what with him piloting a mecha instead of a rocket, helping giant robotic aliens fight off Kaiju, and dealing with a language barrier that has resulted in said aliens mistaking him for being one of them—but Thunderclash wouldn't give it up for the world.

    Besides, with Hot Rod guiding him through these unfamiliar stars, Thunderclash thinks that everything'll turn out fine.
