^.^ Good end to an excellent fic. I love the possessive/protective attitude Bruticus has towards his components.

And another arc? Oooooooo!

Thankyou! :D I'm glad you like that bit (it's one of my favourite bits :D)

Yep, there'll be another arc. Longer, darker and with far more inappropriate humour :P

Thankyou! :D

Hmm, I was when I finished it, but that was a long time ago now! I'm itching to get my NaNoWriMo novel done now so I can set to on the next plot arc.

Hmmm, good ending!

I'm mentally chiding the Autobots in my head, going "this and this and this is how you bungled this up." But mostly along the lines of telling them, "be thankful that you were prevented from doing harm."

Bruticus is adorable.

Thankyou :D

lol! yes! The Autobots could do with an explanation, whereas Vortex just needs some sense knocking into him.

Yay Bruticus! So glad you like him :D

For a couple days now I've been torn thinking, "would it be super awkward to comment now that it's been more than a month since she posted it?" until about ten minutes ago when I realized it would be way worse if I managed to comment on every chapter but the last one. Srsly, who does that?? (I am sorry it took me so long, though. Ugh.)

Lemme say this real quick: when I read the first chapter, I had a really different idea of where this story was headed. Oddly enough I thought it was going to be about the Protectobots (to be fair, I didn't yet know of your love for Combaticons); idk, like, I sort of thought it would be about Blades recovering from the attack. Instead the focus goes to his rapist...and yet I found myself intensely worried for Vortex the entire time and genuinely feeling for him. HOW DID THAT HAPPEN :C Not to say First Aid didn't break my heart, but still. You are magic, and I love your Vortex.

Also, BRUTICUS. I want to give him a hug but he would squish me without compunction :C These lines, I love them:

They had ( ... )

Wheee, thankyou! (LJ is weird with its apparent pressure to comment right away, but I totally don't subscribe to that. Thankyou for commenting because it really made my morning :D And with an 11 hour workday ahead of me, that is very welcome!)

oh gods, this is about to get rambly and introspective, sorry about that!

I have a lot to learn about writing longer stories. I wrote the chapter with Blades after I'd written 6 chapters of the rest of it, because I wanted to explore a bit of what might have happened to make First Aid do what he did. And it was only after posting it that I realised it might be a little very misleading considering it's Chapter 1, but I reasoned that I'd started posting so I should continue, and I should just learn from it and carry on as planned (if it was original fiction, I'd have torn the whole thing apart and started again. No editor in their right mind would put up with my shenanigans ( ... )
