"A/N: I know, I know – I wanna kill him too. Hope Ratchet doesn’t have any wrenches handy…"
Very good to know. Cause I got to the end there and all I could do was stare and make incoherent noises that probably sounded like "ah", "erg", and "murgle".
I don't mean to sound harsh though, it's a good fic that can get me that emotionally invested.
I really am very fond of the way you write Ratchet. He's always tempermental, but it is unique that you allow his temper to be only a single aspect of his personality. I liked seeing his gentler side in this chapter.
Strange as it may seem, I also like how poorly he deals with 'Jack's issues through out. I'm sure somebody will say "But he's a doctor! He should know how to council someone whose been raped!". But really? For one, technically he's a mechanic, not a doctor. For two, if I'm reading this right, he and Wheeljack pretty much think the same way, very much a "there is problem? Fix it" mentality. Except in this instance they can, so they end up just bashing their heads together and although painful at times, it makes their little courtship very charming. (Yes I did just summarize your plot to you; it made me laugh so sue me.)
I have never been able to figure out which mech I Wheeljack to end up with, although I always seem to be cheering for the mech he isn’t presently with so that may be a good thing.
Ah well, don’t mind me. Happy writing, I do hope you finish you seeker series, I was very curious how that would end. ~DB3
