Excuse me for a second while I flail. dkfjgaslkdu,dnfhlkjdsfkjad

Ok, I'm better. Kinda. Oh, I love it when authors combine Lovecraft and Transformers, especially when they do it in such an epic way.

So, I'm guessing that the Cybertronians have no idea what they are up against, even if they are a race that is millions of years old. You would almost think there would have been legends of some kind, kinda like how just about every human religion has a flood story. We don't remember it happening but it may have in the very distant past just because of the sheer number of myths.

Hmmm. Just by the fact that some of them are still alive makes me believe that they haven't actually ran into one of the gods. I imagine that once they were free the Outer Gods/Great Old Ones would not be holding back. I also really what to know what the hell they are up against. I am very excited to see where this goes.

Also, very nice with Grimlock and his version of 'I am the last...I will tell the audient void.' Does it make me a nerd that I recognized

Sorry it took me so long to reply.

Thankyou for such thoughtful feedback! I'm really glad you enjoyed this :D TF/mythos crossovers don't seem to be very popular at all, which is a shame as I think they go quite well together.

Re. Cybertronians not knowing what they're up against - Perceptor had an idea about it, but because this is just a cracky one-shot AU for the spook_me challenge, I decided to go with it being a surprise when the Old Ones return.

Does it make me a nerd that I recognized that? lol :P Nah. Or if it does, then it can only be a good thing :)

(Hopefully I can get this finished in Dececmber after NaNoWriMo. I haven't abandoned it, I just haven't had anywhere near as much time to write as usual :( )

Thankyou :D

I'm looking forward to getting it finished. I don't usually start posting before the entire first draft is done, but in this case the deadline rolled around and so did NaNoWriMo. *has a lot to learn about time management*

That's REALLY good. And Swindle thought he had problems in the Nexus?

He is a survivor though. And I love it how even in these dire circumstances he manages to think of profit :D

Thankyou! :D I'm glad you like it \o/

And yeah, he just couldn't let an opportunity like that go. ;)
