Hi, great stuff! I don't see this as a crack fic at all. Prime seems to be what I'd call a Spark Healer in your fic, helping heal PTSD in his Bots. Tell you what hough, I challenge you to write that chapter hinted at in the Optimus/Ironhide scene, and have Ironhide and another return the favour for the Prime, maybe Bee, or Prowl, or even Ratchet? I look forward to it! Hurry with the next chappy!

So intriguing, the idea of the Prime serving others in a 'fun' away. Its smutty but not in a bad-taste way. It gives far more weight to the idea of what the Prime is.

A potent chapter. Ratchet holds so much inside. At times he should be the one with the Prime-spark, with all the healing he does for others.

Ah yes, the Season of Killing Cliffjumper ...

This was quite lovely, and yet another way in which the facing could be therapeutic. I congratulate you for being able to think this through from so many positions, as it were.

This was very well-conceived, and excellently written. Spark-merge as totally therapeutic, a sort of Kundalini practice among the Autobots.

Of all the Autobots, I feel the greatest connection to Sides, for some reason, and this is exactly how the bad boy would approach a cleansing merge. Kinda like Charlie Sheen, without all the nastiness.

You know, I think this was the perfect cut-off point for this chapter. And I'm not sure about your other reviewers, but this does indeed flutter the shutters and crank the scooter, and in fact it does so better than some of the more overt works. Never underestimate the power of implication - it's stronger than dirt!

A glorious and noble failure. Yep!

Didn't flutter my my shutters, but I liked it all the better for that. All the encounters were very real emotionally, and all, like the 'bots Optimus faced, different. Quite nicely done.

This may have started out a crack fic but has morphed into a loving, serious fic. A Prime would care for his people in the most intimate ways and he shows only gentleness and care with Arcee. Your writing comes across as creative and easy to read without the tardy smut feel most fics have. Takes skill and makes the reader smile rather than smirk. Good job on this chapter especially.

love this

Interesting view. I didn't see what happened with Arcee's "sisters" in the movie, but it makes sense that they didn't escape unscathed. It also makes sense that Arcee would seek out some way of trying to keep herself centered.

Concrit time: "He presently felt find in himself, the hole in his chassis closed by Jolt's charge using Skywarp's parts."

Since Skywarp wasn't in the 2nd movie, I'm assuming you meant Jetfire?

Another great view on how cleansing merges can happen.

In a way, I think this one was kind of sad. Sideswipe seems to have some kind of feelings for Prime while at the same time knows they can never be reciprocated, as Prime sees such things as a duty and deprives himself of the notion he could have more if he wanted.

Nicely done, thank you.

Didn't review this chapter earlier, but since it's the one I keep remembering, I thought I'd better drop you a line to say I appreciated you making Sunny smooth the desk with his hands, to be precise and put those frustrated artistic tendencies to a useful task.
