    Summary

    Taking in the sight of him, his plating is… unfamiliarly unique. It has curves and ridges unlike any other mech he’s ever seen, and now that he isn’t curled in on himself, Tailgate can see that the impalement wound isn’t the only injury he has. On the side he'd turned away and hidden against the cliff, there’s deep scratches gouging through his abdominal plating, sluggishly bleeding thick energon. Said impalement is further down, the metal shoved up under and displacing a piece of leg plating uncomfortably, and—

    Tailgate cycles his optics.

    This mech doesn’t have legs.


    Tailgate is a shore maintenance worker, preventing cliffs from degrading into the Rust Sea. When his coworker abandons him mid-shift, he's ill-equipped to help a mech he finds washed up and injured on the shore, much less when he realizes this is a creature he didn't even know existed yesterday.

    Summary

    A malfunctioning space bridge causes Whirl, and his definitely-totally-arch-nemesis Cyclonus, to land on a planet outside of the charted universe. A planet far away from the war, whose inhabitants seem to be dead set on forcing the two of them to learn how to (ugh) live normal, healthy lives, where they talk about their feeeeelings and make friends with weird, organic little slime blobs. Ugh.

    Whirl would rather die, thanks.


    Or, in which Tailgate is a Slime Rancher, and gets a couple of emotionally stunted, war-hardened idiots dropped on his lawn.
