FIC Summary: [2007, AU] Sore throats, nightmares, and the differences between organics and Cybertronians - something is terribly wrong with Sam. To live is to evolve, and shape alone is not enough; think of it as a mutual learning experience. (Bot!Sam, PTSD, Mech/mech)

My heart just broke for Sam at the beginning. :( And this-->"Any military leader who thought suicide was the answer deserved to be questioned, frequently and often." I nodded my head and said "TRUFAX" and my dad, who was next to me, was like, "wut?" and I read it to him and he was all, "yeah. trufax." AND I'M SURE YOU WANTED TO KNOW THAT LA DEE DA DEE DA.
Poor, poor Miles. That's a rough thing to go through.
I loved so many things about this chapter, but I have to leave all of that behind so I can squeal about one thing.
JAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!!!~
LOVE OF MY LIFE! YOU LIVE! YAY!!!! 8D 8D 8D 8D
Okay. Done now.

POOR SAM (would you like spoilers about what happened with his parents? I TOTALLY HAVE SPOILERS! They really aren't plot-important. Wait -- are they really spoilers, then? HMM) I DID NEED TO KNOW THAT. DO YOU KNOW WHY I NEEDED TO KNOW THAT? BECAUSE I LOL'D HARD. (I loev trufax, lol)
Yeah. Miles gets more crap piled on him, though. :B (Lawl, I treat these characters like bendy straws. OH LOOK AT THAT, IT BENDS-BUT-DOES-NOT-BREAK)
JAZZ DOES LIVE. I don't know how happy you're going to be about that. I make even JAZZ angst. HAHAHAAHHA (It's an evil scheme. Is it working?)

PLZ TO B GIVN ME SPOILERS POST HASTE.
Trufax is pretty much the only word I say. It's kind of a problem.
The BEND-BUT-DOES-NOT-BREAK thing made me think of freshman biology, with the whole "elastic limit" thing and how bones bend before they break, and then this girl I know got her arm stuck behind a mirror and she had to wear a cast not because she broke the bone but because it bent.
um. thathasnothingtodowithanything.
BUT. I still love that Jazz lives! For some reason, I have the uncontrollable need to make my favorite characters suffer. Like, tremendously. Jazz!angst is one of the best. Which kind of makes me a bitch, I guess. XD (EVIL SCHEME IS A GO.)

OK, SO THE SPOILERS THAT AREN'T REALLY, ARE THIS: Judy actually worked for sector seven at one time, and PRACTICED FOOT IN MOUTH DISEASE. Sam just ASSUMED that he'd been disowned. That's why he won't let himself remember it, and therefore creating a lot of unnecessary angst, lolz.
I COULD SEE HOW THIS WOULD BE A PROBLEM. But, as a person with her own hangups over certain words, I can't really say anything, lolz.
... and now see this? This is everything I've eaten for the last three years. Yes, that did just all come out through some magical quantum science. Yes, I was just that sick. BLARGH.
True. If they don't suffer, we don't have anything to write about, though, lolz. Well, Jazz Angst is more like "Haha, life sucks, doesn't it? Funny, that." SO, on a guy that refuses to suffer, I don't know how much good angst is, lolz. (YAAAAAAAY)

EVERYONE'S LIFE SUCKS. It gets worse before it gets better. actually it never gets better. On the other hand, Sam isn't actually dead, everyone just thinks he is
IT COULDN'T HAVE BEEN THAT DEPRESSING! Hmph! Lifetime ... I'd watch that beating Ironhide, thing. He might be ticked off enough as it is ...

Clearly, I need to change one of my genre's to angst. URGH. THERE IS NO SUNSHINE IN THE WORLD!
Why must you give me hilarious mental images? I just got this mental image of a zombie going "MOOOAARRR" at the camera and then OM NOM NOM (and maybe OMNOMNOM on the camera guy later).

Ah, Jazz. He's the Autobots' everyman - how can I not be happy that he's back? And I'll admit it - I nearly fell out of my chair laughing at the "No, he did it!" scene. The fact that these characters can find some levity in a tense situation without bleeding angst all over my monitor (especially in lieu of the last intermission) is most refreshing. (As an aside, Jazz and 'angst' really don't seem to go together all that well. He's the anti-angst, in my mind.)
I know this seems almost superfluous, but rite moar plz. Accursed ( ... )

Wow, you have no idea how happy you made me when you said that you've read both series~ You're either the first person to do so or the first to ADMIT to it, lolz~ I do try very hard to imbue as much humanity into the characters as I can. (And of course, Poor Decepticon!Sam does have it pretty rough. He's pretty much always going to be various levels of crazy, no matter how coherent he is)
PRIME. He needs to paint his armor black, DESPERATELY.
Poor Jazz. The last thing he probably has coherent records on was following Bumblebee toward Mission city. (And, well ... you're right, it's not really angst, it's just Jazz acknowledging that everything SUCKS and is all, "but whatev'". Jazz knows that life sucks and that there isn't any real use in whining about it.)
Of course I'm writing moar, lolz. Conceptions is MAI BABAI. <3
Haha, I hate cliffhangers, so I didn't really mean to make it one. If you don't mind a small "spoiler" ---- I had to cut off there because Sam's not going to wake up for a few months.

Win! Great recovery there, Ratchet.
Can't wait to see what the dangling carrot is attached to with that cliffhanger.
And I gleefully admit to not only reading the other series of yours as well, but to marking it for re-reading. One of those 'I wanna cry but I'm laughing and this isn't funny at all' kind of things.
Methinks I'll actually get an account so all my commentary doesn't scream 'anonymous' anymore.

Haha, getting an account certainly does make tracking things a lot easier, but I understand the draw behind being anon. You'd get an alert for when people reply to the comments, at least. Alternatively, in the subject line you could write some sort of ID signifier. Whatever you wanna do :B
