Title: The Wages of Compassion
Continuity: G1 AU, set between season 2 and TFTM
Rating: NC-17
Content advice: (NB: this is for the whole story, not just this chapter) spark bonding, robotic gore, implied combat violence, sexual themes, explicit consensual and non-consensual sticky and non-sticky sex, coercion, dark, some humour. Includes multiple side pairings.
Characters: Vortex, First Aid, Autobot and Decepticon ensemble, OC human ensemble.
Summary: Both combiner teams attempt to deal with the effects of the spark bond, and Vortex somehow finds the time to formulate a plan.
Notes: Thanks again to
spacehussy, without whose suggestions and encouragement, this wouldn't have been anywhere near as fun to write.
