#synthen

after having yet another melancholic episode of 'im not good enough for my partners' she turns to synthetic energon, hoping for improvements. greater strength, better focus and above all protection of those she cares about. what she didnt at all expect was becoming utterly obsessed with her human partner. the need to protect morphing into a need of constant monitoring, need to always be there, next to you at all times.

she is no longer cold and brooding like before. after injecting the synthetic energon –without ratchets knowledge or permission of course– she becomes very pushy and forward. aggressive almost. yanking you by your arm to face her when lecturing you about being more careful, just so she has an excuse to hold you. just to feel your skin against her hot plating.

her plating, it has become almost itchy. itchy for your touch, your skin, your hair. . . your lips. she will gladly take anything you give her just to satiate this burning.

Ratchet could only watch in mortified horror as his own energon poured from his optics. He could only look on in silence as his frame acted without him. What a fool he was to think he was stronger than this.

The arguments grew worse, his strength doubled. His love for his friends slowly dissolved.

And oh how it pained him to see such disappointment in Optimus' optics. To see the hurt in Rafael's young eyes. And oh how much their emotions mirrored his own. To watch his once blue life-blood turn that sickening green, and watch it corrupt his spark.

??? Whats wrong
