Rating: G
Setting: TF: Prime
Characters: Ratchet, Bulkhead, Arcee, the kids

Summary: The 'Bot's get a little lesson in some of the history of Halloween.
A/N: Wow ( Read more... )
I like the humor too, Miko waving around the goo, the bots disgusted reactions, the little education about Halloween, just woven into the entertaining story - great!
As well, I like the more sober moment, the realization that most of the bots don't even remember the times they were not at war, Ratchet being disturbed a little that he's the only one on Earth (with Optimus, possibly) to remember those times clearly - it leaves much room for the reader to fill in the gaps, which I really like (meaning: you didn't write too much or not enough).
And of course the ending joke is priceless - I think Ratchet is pretty much the scariest bot around... Okay, an angry Prowl would be even worse/better, but the producers are always so mean and leave him out T-T
Great writing! See, there was nothing to worry about,- just write and post away; your style is really good and polished. Want more!!! ^-^

Yeah, I would melt too ^-^ He's so underrepresented in TF lately, it makes me sad T-T
PS: Just signed up for the Nov challenge over on tf_rare_pairing ^-^ Guess which pairing? *pokes at icon*

TF:Animated Prowl *was* pretty cool. I never got much into that continuation since I didn't like Sari that much... I kept thinking of Sailor Moon while watching that show...
Good luck on the challenge, I'll have to head over to that community and see if I get any nibbles from the plot bunnehs.

Another really good one is about personality types - I totally found both Megatron and Starscream depicted there, and Loki (from recent Thor movie) too °-° It helps tons with characterization, esp. when it comes to OCs or understanding the motivation better.
The main reason for watching TFA was Prowl, to be honest, but I really didn't mind Sari. She was pretty okay for a human character in a TF cartoon.

Hmm I was thinking of doing the rare pairing with Drift and Prowl... They seem like they'd make an interesting pairing!

The book I was talking about is "Personality Types - Using the Enneagram for Self-Discovery" by Don Richard Riso & Russ Hudson. I wouldn't use that book to "discover" myself or to analyze my family/friends, but it is really great in the way it descripes over pages personality types. E. g.: "The Professional", "The Loyalist", "The Manic Compulsive" or "The Self-Possessed Guide".
I can rec you some good slashy books ^-^ For starters, there is "Melusine" by Sarah Monette (the protagonist has an interesting/intense bromance realtionship with his brother; it's fantasy, one of the main charas is gay). Next would be "Lost Souls" by Poppy Z. Brite (Vampires) and last "The God Eaters" by Jesse Hajicek (a mix of fantasy, western, mystery, sci-fi). I leave the research up to you - but I can rec more, if you want me to ^-^
Oh, and if you mean "stories" in the sense of fanfiction without a huge amount of smex, but excellent grammar, story telling and good charas - then just name fandom and pairing and I bet that I can come up with some really great ones ^-^
