Summary
I said yes again to Primus.
I don’t know why, but I did, and somehow, this didn’t feel like my second time either.
Or my third.
But I can’t…
I don’t remember…

“I apologize - what?” Magnus said belatedly.

Bruh this has been added to my list of favorite stories of all time. I didn't even think this was a possible ship. I didn't think Megatron could have a positive ship. But here we are.
And this is just the right amount of mystery, suspense, horror, world-building, scifi, fantasy, and Roddy ADHDing his way through trouble I need.

Bookmark Notes:
Overall very good and effective horror story. I think the is the best of MrsAlot's work.
I'm ace af and there's a lot of smut in this but I could not put it down and am very sad that it stopped updating around when shit started getting really good. Lotsa warnings for dubcon though, since Ratchet's in an altered state of mind for the entire fic, but it makes the horror and suspense all the more effective.
TL;DR Ratchet is permanently high af, Megs is an asshole, the Decepticons are surprisingly soft, Optimus needs Therapy™

One of my favorite fics by Enchanted Quill. Very good mix of Optimus and Ratch suffering horrors together as they try to protect each other from across the spectrum.
The antagonists are also fun as HECK.

Two Sides to a Coin by Lets_try_some_writing, spreadward
Fandom Transformers - All Media Types, Transformers: Prime
13 Apr 2025
Summary
Orion Pax and Optimus Prime are two very different mechs with two very different sets of ideals and motivations, forced to cohabit the same frame. This series explores the many ramifications of this unwanted union between the two, not just for them, but for all of Cybertron.
We highly suggest reading this series in order, it may be difficult to understand certain aspects of the plot if parts are skipped.

This has unfortunately weaved its way to the top of my favorite stories of all time, next to the likes of Last Unicorn, Watership Down, Princess Bride, The Scientist Series(by TalkingSoup), and His Empire of Dirt(by Pearl and Pine).
I have an extremely unfair bias in favor Ratchet as a whole, and an even bigger bias in favor of TFP Ratchet. Fuckin' Jeffrey Combs amiright
