Great chapter. Though...

Through ever inch of skin, ever taunt tendon, every soft and crushed muscle, ever brittle and fracture-riddled bone ... ever tubular length of vein, even those compressed crushed and burst, every circular plate of blood, to the adrenaline flooding ever organic millimeter of him.

... shouldn't it be 'every' instead of 'ever'?

Anyway, the story is really interesting. I like how you show the relationship between Sam and Bumblebee.

SDLIJF! Wow, I must have been having a major brain malfunction when writing that paragraph. I can't believe I REPEATEDLY made that mistake. Thanks so much for the heads up, sorry that you had to read it when it had those mistakes.

:D Yay! I'm glad you like so far!

No need to apologize, that stuff happens all the time.

I'm probably more tuned to 'seeing' these things because it was drilled into me to be very exact in writing, English being not my native language et al.

i wonder if bee has two personalties one a five yr old and other grown man. lol

[meicailya]

LOL! I should hope not XD That might be kinda creepy.

The way I see it, Bee is childish and playful with Sam (for reasons that I think should come to light much later), but then he remembers that Sam is like ... young liek whoa, so then he feels OLD.

Yay, another chapter! I have to second the approval of Bee and Sam's relationship. It seems like most fics kind of skip over the fact that they had been together for a matter of days, and part of that time Sam wasn't even aware that Bee was sentient. It's one of my pet peeves to have things move too quickly, so I love how you're taking it a little slower and having them actually get to know one another.

I liked the awkwardness at the beginning of the chapter and I laughed out loud at the google conversation as well as when Bee's joking nature came to light. :D

Looking forward to more!

I think part of the 'quick relationship' can be blamed on Sam quick affinity toward Bumblebee after fighting Barricade, and the whole "I'm not going to leave you!" thing during the battle. And yeah, that sort of stress does create what I refer to as 'battle bonds', but when there isn't any fighting? Awkward! I just hope I can continue to portray it the way I see it building, without losing any/too-many readers in the process.

Introducing people to the Internet always leads to lulz 8D

Hopefully, I can deliver! (and I mean, yes, I can deliver, but would it be worth getting it there in under thirty minutes and having to pay full because of it? [and by that, I mean quality. I never know when I'm being too obscure])
