A feline knight takes her lord on a clandestine mission to get his cursed growth checked out. I return from the depths of burnout with a new Alter. This story was meant to focus on Lucian a bit more but he really was just kind of here for it. Diego's just an OC but Lucian is officially part of the brain crew, so that's fun! If you enjoyed it and want to support me in continuing this endeavor, a tip to https://ko-fi.com/ancocalcen would be super fucking nice :3 And if you're interested in commissioning me, send me an ask on tumblr https://www.tumblr.com/blog/anco-writes I do no have any other means of income and every little bit is amazingly helpful as I haven't had anything come in for a good long while. AGAIN, JUST FOR EMPHASIS, THIS IS FOR THE PEOPLE WHO ARE LIKE "I liked that, but it would be weird to comment" IT'S NOT WEIRD IT WILL MAKE MY DAY! Or maybe it is weird if that's what you're into, I know I love being weird.

If you don't want to go to FA for whatever reason, since tumblr won't let me make long posts anymore for some stupid fucking reason, you can go here instead

Demesne: Dominion or Territory

(This is off my blind seeker AU)

Not many bots on Cybertron knew why little was know about the seekers. They knew they were secretive and they knew they were super fast and somewhat annoying, but they didn't know why little was still know...until the war.

Because seekers made up a majority of the decepticon forces the other cybertronians were forced to live in close quarters with the seekers. They learned a lot about the seekers in the first month of living with them. Some would say, more than they ever needed to know.

The first was that seekers had almost no sense of privacy. Everything was done together, from drinking energon, to washing to sleeping. Everything was a contact thing and everything was their business.

The second thing was that seekers had trines and the trine was the trine and if ANYONE threatened the trine the trine would slowly murder you or make you disappear where no one would ever find you.

The third was that seekers were VERY territorial. Even to each other. Each trine had their own territory and if anyone came into it uninvited they would be bodily thrown out. Because of the small quarters of the base, each trine took the room assigned to them and guarded it with their lives.

The decepticon learned that normally these territory's, usually called Demesnes, could be stolen by another trine but because it was army rule that everyone had to have their own room, the other trines wouldn't take the territory's.
