10 parts Ongoing MatureIn that moment, with my clothes still damp and my hair still dripping, I realised that the trajectory of my entire life had been monumentally shifted. The course had changed direction, the tracks set for a new destination, my mundane worries now a long-distant past. It had changed the second I'd knocked on Raf's bedroom door. I'd picked it when I saw his robot-patterned curtain fluttering in the breeze.
The leader of the Autobots noticed the new human in his base. I felt the weight of him when his blue eyes pinned themselves on me. His presence stole me of breath, his aura both stifling and magnanimous. The dials of his eyes spun as he silently regarded me.
What I didn't realise was just how much my life would change still.
•••••
After simultaneously losing her job and stumbling her way into the midst of a secret intergalactic war, workaholic and chronic perfectionist Y/n Esquivel finds herself head-to-head with the version of a self she painfully wished she could be; Autobot leader Optimus Prime.
But Optimus Prime's perfectionism was a curse given rather than a boon granted. Beneath his perceived flawlessness is someone lost, grieving, and carrying the burden of millions of deaths on his shoulders.
As Y/n and Optimus grow closer, as secrets are unfurled and wishes unravelled, they begin to heal. Though their differences may be stark, they find that their similarities inside are plentiful.
But this is still war, and in war, everything sacred is eventually destroyed.
