Summary:

When a sinister cosmic force threatens Earth, an ex-soldier, his mechanic best friend and a museum researcher team up with the Autobots and the Maximals to save humanity.

Prologue Summary:

him getting told this by a mysterious cloaked figure:

「ずっと空想の中で生きるつもりか？」 「少しは現実を見たらどうだ」 (“do you intend to keep living in a daydream?” “how about looking at reality a little”)

and he doesn’t take that well at ALL to say the least. i’m loving the theme here of animal dudes who are actually humans living through some degree of separation from that (clearly horribly traumatic) human life. though brattley’s is, as far as i can tell, entirely mental, while the ttc cast are a mix of mentally distanced to cope and also physically stuck in a computer, lol

rules: list the first line of your last 10 fics (posted or WIP) and see if there's a pattern. if you don't have 10 fics, then as many first lines as you do have!

8. (WIP) Little Horizon (Humanformers AU, with merfolk)
