Summary
It turns out that being wired into a giant war machine doesn’t play nice with human brains. The Earth Mechanical Defense Force, or EMDF, learned that the hard way when their pilots started going… neurotic, let’s say, after a few missions.
The obvious solution to that problem was to simply wire the pilot into their mecha permanently, that way their mind wasn’t being strained by the constant in and out. Unfortunately that strategy backfired and the pilots started going neurotic much, much faster, and this time they were giant and made of metal and much harder to put down.
So, the obvious next step would be to pull the plug on that idea and go back to the drawing board, right? No, that’s ridiculous, the next step was obviously to simply…
Make the mecha forget they’d ever been human in the first place.
Somewhere along the line someone should have pulled the plug, but they’d already invested so much into the project, and you know what they say about sunk cost fallacy.

Summary
Jazz should have waited. He should have retreated and called for back-up. He should have left Prowl alone to hide behind his rocks and lick his wounds.
But this was Prowl.
His Prowler.
He'd come back from the grave.
----
After an operation goes horribly wrong and Prowl is presumed killed in action, Jazz begins to slowly, reluctantly move on with his life.
On a routine recon mission, Jazz comes across the very mech he's spent ages trying to mourn. Yet, Prowl is different. He doesn't speak. He doesn't question. All he does is hiss and growl and stare, cautiously, as Jazz tries to bring the Prowl he knows and loves back to him.
AKA: A stranger comes home wearing your dead best friend's face.

Summary
Jazz and Prowl are Paranormal Investigators.
They have been looking for evidence of the paranormal for years. The two of them investigated everything from aliens to ghosts. To Jazz's disappointment, they had never captured any real evidence. When their friend Blaster sends them reports of large figures seen in the woods and cars without drivers, they think it's another hoax. After all, everything else they've investigated had ended up being fake in one way or another.
Unfortunately, what they find is very real, and it makes them question everything they thought they knew about themselves. As their strange encounters keep happening, they can't help but notice impossible changes in themselves.
