    Summary

    "Does your whole body run this hot?"

    "Yes."

    “Isn’t it uncomfortable?”

    "No." The extremes of agony were the first thing Mydei had gotten used to in the times of his earliest memories. The freezing waters of the Sea of Souls had not been kind – bitter and unrelenting towards the frail body of a child abandoned in their torrents, viciously demanding his endurance until numbness settled upon him like a makeshift haven. There were no shores for him to drift to, no blankets waiting there to swaddle him up with.

    He had to be his own hearth to drift towards, his own flame to chase.

    Rarely did Mydei ever take off his gauntlets, keeping them on even in the baths.

    It was a habit he had developed after settling in Okhema. Which meant no one had ever really seen his bare hands.

     

    Phainon gradually weans him out of it.

    Summary

    Knock Out quits his job and politely requests a new one. The great and powerful Decepticon Empire reciprocates his courtesy by saddling him with the job of serving as team medic to a group of mentally ill circus clowns; in particular, he's been immediately assigned to the task of giving a psych eval to every member of the crew. Knock Out isn't all that sure that his interview went well.

    "I've almost got it," comes the predicted response. "Jus' one more test. Last one, I swear."

    "You said that seven trials ago."

    "Funny how that works out," mutters Brainstorm.
