Drum roll please for last, but not least, one of my favorite Ratchet X Optimus longfics on A03 written by 'ros3bud009' !
Have you ever wondered what might have happened if Optimus, after reclaiming the Matrix of Leadership, DIDNT get his memories back ? Well this fic explores that through Ratchet's POV, alongside all the fluff and loving heartache in-between!
