This site needs more starstruck party ambulance tbh

Made for dratchetparty's fourth day. The theme was 'bright desire'!

Edit: [Part 2]!

unappreciated: Ratchet’s holding Drift’s mouth shut with recently-spray-painted hands leaves marks on Drift’s face

MTMTE : issue 9 : Missed Moment

A beautiful joke in three parts:

The payoff:

[image: Panel from mtmte #9.  Several mechs around a table, talking. Drift has a red handprint on his face.]

The lead-up:

[image: Panel from mtmte #9.  Drift and Ratchet together.  Ratchet has clamped a hand over Drift's mouth to stop him from continuing to 'quote' him inaccurately. Drift: "-MMPH!" Ratchet: "Unreliable narrator alert!  Do not, I repeat do not listen to what he says!"]

The set-up:

[image: Panel from mtmte #9.  Ratchet walks into the room where Rewind and the others are waiting. Rewind, waving at him, "Ratchet, you made it!" Ratchet: "I hope this is important, Rewind.  I abandoned a life-saving operation to come here. That was a joke. Don't all laugh at once." Points at his hand. "I was actually spray-painting my hands."]

...well, as predictions go, that was pretty on the money.

(It almost looks as through Prowl is trying to be reassuring - not least because of the smile, which actually looks pretty good on Prowl's face.)

Cyclonus' summation strikes a chord with me, especially since I tend to gravitate towards characters who are flawed and who acknowledge their flaws.
