    Summary

    There exists mecha who were Forged from the All Spark with something more to them; abilities that modern science cannot explain. Outliers. They were ostracized and outcasted for the crime of being strange- not being the perfect cog for the great machine.

    And that idea has persisted 'til this day.

    Ratchet has one such ability- an ability that can change the tides of the war.

    But at what cost?

    ---

    When the Decepticons discover an outlier- who surely should've been on their side, what to do except make him theirs?

    Summary

    Ratchet thinks he remembers a little bit of what it was like to be young—what it was like to be pinned down, helpless, and poked and prodded until he stopped thinking, what it was like to be torn apart and put back together again. That was before the academy, he thinks, but he’s not sure because that bit feels immaterial, feels unreal, feels timeless.

     

    or, Ratchet remembers his youth, or maybe, he doesn’t.

    Summary

    There were a lot of days where Ratchet's body didn't feel his own.
    Late nights when his plating was so indescribably awful that he found himself just barely resisting the urge to tear it off and drown himself in boiling hot solvent; early mornings where the dusty blanket slipped off the cracked old mirror in the corner and he just wanted to shatter the mirror further, punch it until it split into shards too small to see himself in - and the pain of splintering glass worming itself into the hands that weren't even his was only a benefit.
    ~~~
    In which Ratchet's body doesn't feel his own, and Drift helps.

    Summary

    Basically, I re-wrote Ratchets reaction to Optimus and everyone else being alive and on earth and never telling him, cause, RUDE. Also massive angst. They aren’t officially in a relationship at this point, more like mutual pining that they are both terrified to admit. But mostly pain. Because Ratty and Opi got some issues to work out that aren’t really worked out. Also, ignore my bad spacing all of this is on a phone so bear with me. Also I accidentally forgot Undertone existed. Whoops.

    Summary

    It’s in the middle of the war, and things are getting worse. Ratchet plus a malfunctioning medical drone is not going to end well, and let’s say things get out of hand.

    In other words, Ratchet is missing a limb and a medical drone, while gaining a little friend he didn’t exactly ask for.

    (Set in the G1 timeline. All the ratty angst.)
