Hi yes hello, i just wanted to say i really enjoyed Rearview Mirrors. Really enjoying the flip on Prowl being the mystery, and us figuring out the mystery alongside him. The mystery of Snatcher and Zero, and what the absolute shit was done to him to render him this grey mass of trauma. The constant tangents he goes on inside his own head cause he is all ??? at all times? So fucking tasty.
Can't wait for next chapter, but especially to see the sheer rage induced screaming session Ratchet will need after getting a good look at all the shit that was done to the poor guy. Jazz too will get screamed at, but at this point its a formality, no amount of wrench throwing or shouting will keep this guy from getting hurt in name of saving others.
this is so sweet, thank you!! i'm reading this with the most swollen eyes and blurry vision ever, so i really hope this reply ends up looking okay lol
rearview mirrors is very very much my passion project at the moment, so i deeply appreciate all comments on it especially. it truly means a lot to me, especially seeing as how the whole defection story between either jazz or prowl isn't the most original plot. this isn't to bash on it at all, more me just trying to say that i'm forever grateful people give my own take on it a try. thank you!
as for the specifics: the tangents are some of my favorite things to write, but sometimes they also happen unintentionally LMAO i was very much that kid that was completely silent during hour long car rides, just staring out the window with 12 different things simultaneously going on in my head. i was my own entertainment, 100%.
...which is to say, i tend to be so caught up in my head it reflects in how much internal monologue i tend to write. it just fits with prowl! it's not just projection!! (lying)
and i like writing ratchet as a mix of his marvel comics and idw1 characterization (outwardly sweet and full of worries about being useless hidden underneath dedication and gruffness), but regardless, that fit has definitely been earned! he deserves to be upset!
this is so long orz i get very excited and start doing the most proverbial of back flips whenever i get rearview mirror comments. thank you again for all the kind words!!
