Title:
Giants of the Earth, Chapter 9 Author: hopeofdawn
Rating: PG (may go up in future chapters)
Verse: Bayverse/movieverse
Characters/Pairing: this chapter--Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, Ratchet, Prowl, William Lennox, Sam Witwicky, Hogarth Hughes, Iron Giant, Jazz, Red Alert, Bluestreak, Sideswipe, Wheelie, Charlotte Mearing, Glenn Morshower, plus a few OCs
Warnings/Notes:Takes place after DOTM, with minor tweaks to movieverse events/characters (so there are minor spoilers for the third movie). Most of the characterizations will be taken more from G1--especially Optimus, who is *not* the 'kill 'em all, let Primus sort 'em out' character he is in the movies. Most of the onscreen 'deaths' of Decepticons and Autobots have also fallen victim to authorial override--see the fic for details. :) Many thanks also go to fractalserpent for being a wonderful enabler and editor!
“And here I thought we were done with this slag,” Ratchet grumbled to Jazz as they headed into Operations. The cavern was looking nominally better than it had a few months ago; Wheeljack and Que’s combined efforts had gotten more of the recovered equipment from the Ark up and running. Which meant less reliance on jury-rigged human tech, which was all to the good; if Jazz never saw another ‘blue screen of death’ again, he would die a very happy ‘bot. Cross-posted to
