    Summary

    The Creature and his Creator hunt each other from Switzerland all the way to Russia, and across the frozen expanse of the Arctic. Many things come to pass between them, and yet none at all.

    Or, love was always there on the outside, looking in.

    hh. the author understood the assignment SO FUCKING WELL, are you guillermo del toro in disguise? the fuck???

    this is perfect. absolute perfection, and i'm going to consider it canon alongside the movie because it's just so in line with everything else. this characterization is PEAK bro. i could hear it all. i need to watch the movie again.

    victor and the creature's relationship is so much more than father and son to me, obviously. the fact that the creature here compares himself to satan, disgraced by his creator and only wanting his love, and victor as his cruel god – what the fuuuck. using paradise lost as a parallel to the creature and victor is ingenious and exactly what gdt intended by including it in the movie. AND PEOPLE BASH THIS MOVIE! WHAT OTHER FRANKENSTEIN MOVIE OUT THERE HAS DONE ANYTHING REMOTELY SIMILAR TO THIS?? WHO WILL EVER UNDERSTAND GOTHIC HORROR AND THE APPEAL OF MAKING MONSTERS ("monsters") SYMPATHETIC LIKE GUILLERMO DEL TORO?? AHHHHHHH

    um. anyway i really liked frankenstein 2025 and this probably won't be my last bookmark in the tag teehee 😊😊

    Summary

    Cloud had seen Sephiroth three times in his life.

    Once when he was young, about ten years old, when the general returned from his first campaign in Wutai. He could remember climbing up onto the roof of his family’s bungalow so that he could get the best possible view of the silver-haired hero, young and perfect as he marched through town in his military regalia.

    The second time Cloud saw Sephiroth was when his home went up in flames.

    The third and final time, he would slide a knife between his ribs, straight into his heart.

    it's done!! hooray!! and boo, because now i don't get to read it anymore 😭😭😭

    honestly, what a wild ride. it even made me leave a couple comments, which i've only recently gotten into the habit of doing. i enjoyed every bit of it!

    i'm happy that everything ended well, and that sephiroth and cloud get to live their little cottage life together 🥹 this fic really made me yearn for the royal/medieval au drama, so there's that

    ohhh i hate to see them suffer...... but ooh the writing >:)
    i'll be waiting for the next updates patiently! already predicting the separation and inevitable reunion when they realize they can't live without each other (and that's not a bad thing. cloud needs people)

    Summary

    It was Drift.

    His hands stopped where they were in the air, inches from cupping the mech’s face. He intended to tilt his head to the side, so he could get a better look at what looks like a busted audial, but now he almost feels like he can’t. Like this is all a fabrication, and the slightest touch would make it disappear.

    It can’t be Drift. It just can’t be.

    Drift was dead.

    my dumb ass: hm, miscarriage tag you say? heavy chapter? bah i can handle it

    I DID NOT HANDLE IT. I CRIED MAN I CRIED A LOT.

    "Ratchet wanted to know who his baby would have grown up to be." STAB ME IN THE FUCKIN HEART WHILE YOU'RE AT IT HUH?? THAT LINE HIT ME LIKE A CANNONBALL AND THE FOLLOWING LINES WERE JUST WORSE. ooougghhh just thinking about it again is making me tear up eueueueu sobbing sounds 😭😭😭

    my head literally aches from crying. that's how bad this got me. okay rare lore dump to the void of the internet: my mom's had two miscarriages, one before me and one after me, so like. this hurts, this is personal and it was WRITTEN personally i could FEEL and SYMPATHIZE with it AUGH

    this was really well written, everyone was characterized correctly, the smut didn't seem too randomly thrown in, I LOVE IT A LOT

    Summary

    “This is a truce between us. If we bond, neither of us can get out of this.”

    "So you're willing to force us into a bond neither of us would ever want, to risk literal insanity, just so you can get your precious peace?" Megatron says, voice filled with disbelief and disgust.

    "It doesn't matter what I want," Optimus replies, ignoring the freezing ice creeping closer to his spark.

    "And it doesn't matter what I want, either?" Megatron snarls at him.

    "This isn't about us!" Optimus says, louder than intended. He berates himself for losing his composure when Megatron's lips curl into a smirk. "I am willing to do anything to keep Cybertron safe."

    "Safe from me, you mean," Megatron says, gesturing towards the dark halls of the Nemesis outside of Optimus' prison cell.

    "Yes.”

    An arranged bond is a dangerous, loveless union in which one's death can have catastrophic consequences for the other. It's a trap with no way out.

    It's also Optimus' only chance to end the war, so he proposes a deal Megatron is unable to refuse.
