    Summary

    Most people like to believe they’d survive the apocalypse. The twins were certain they’d be the first to go, back when humans nearly annihilated Earth through war and disease. But the end of the world turned out to reward adaptability in the worst situations and utter stubborness.

    Against their own expectations, they survived. Then kept surviving, even when navigating being taken in by alien robots that call them 'sparklings'.

    They moved like the twin stars that made up the gemini constellation—gravity damning them to never be apart, rules never sticking and authority never landing in their orbit. The twins listened to no one but each other, operating on the same wavelength and ignoring everything else… except, apparently, other twins who seem wired the same way (to everyone's surprise).

    Summary

    Prowl’s doorwings flicked up. His Tac-Unit had clocked them miles back. Rumors spoke of Barbarians wandering the wastes, feral mecha lying in wait to raid unsuspecting travelers and make off with mecha to ravage as war prizes. But Prowl put no stock in baseless rumors. He was here to complete his mission and he'd do it well regardless of any Bandits' sad attempts at trying to get the jump on him.

    The Constructicons come across another supply transport ripe for the picking after Scavenger picks up a lovely scent, only to find that their target's more prepared compared to the usual easy Citymecha. That was fine. Scrapper always loved a challenge.

    Summary

    Tommy wakes up in a book he's read once before, now casted as an infant prince named Theseus-- that would have been fine if this infant isn't destined to die at the age of fifteen by the hands of his own royal brother.

    Tommy as Theseus will not have that.

    He'll be changing a few things in here. For one, he will not be called Theseus. That's such a gaudy name. Who the hell chose that-? Oh right.

    The brother who is going to execute him.

     

    ---

    OR The SBI Who Made Me A Princess AU we all needed.
    OR OR Tommy gets stuck inside a book and he has to use childish charm to change fate.

    Summary

    As one of the few denizens in the Undercity who qualifies for an adequate medic, life is never void of surprises.

    Occupational hazards aside, you manage to pull through as well as you can, wanting nothing more than some peace and quiet despite the current state of the city.

    However, when the King of the Underground himself pays you a visit to aid his troubled daughter, the notion of living a relatively quiet life in the Lanes comes to an abrupt halt.

    Summary

    After the doctor hurts Rio, a freshly-orphaned Viktor is taken in at The Last Drop. Years later, there's a riot on the bridge.

    In which child-Viktor refuses to abandon Silco; an act of devotion that changes the trajectory of Zaun's uprising. While Vander negotiates with Enforcers, Silco single-parents a revolution in the dark. Someone has to fund his son's endless charity work and vaccinate zaunish kids.

    There's siblings-of-divorce, waverider eggs, volatile crystals...and a Piltie wandering around the Lanes looking for blue gems and a ghost.

    Illustrated! +more art on tumblr, bsky, twitter, insta.
