Gronked

by bonehandledknife (ladywinter), Primarybufferpanel (ArwenLune)

Gronked: Accidentally going off-route while leading and becoming lost on a rock face in an area much more difficult than the climb being attempted.   "You shoulda felt honoured to be Treasured by the Immortan!" It was startling how quickly the younger Warboy, the one who'd been helpful and chatty and seemed so genuinely fond of Furiosa, changed when they made any sort of suggestion that Joe hadn't been so wonderful. "And what do you think that 'treasuring' means, huh?" Dag asked.

Rubatosis

by Alexmcxa

Rubatosis(n.) the unsettling awareness of your own heartbeatBeing a Werecat was far from easy. It made you moody, annoyed, protective, possibly possessive, and definitely overwhelmed by your sharper than human senses. Not to mention the stress of keeping yourself from transforming under duress. No, you didn’t shift on the full moon or anything. Lucky you. You shifted when feeling intense fear or adrenaline. Which was hard when all humans made you frustrated to a degree.Except the children. Oh the children. You knew they awakened the mama cat in you, bundling them up during nap time and purring as softly as you could through your currently human voice without actually revealing that you were doing it. Especially not to the daycare animatronic, who seemed very keen on watching you. At least the night one didn’t talk as much. You liked silence. Easy on your sensitive ears.

Some of the things you say sometimes...

by oooSilverWolfooo

Based off of episode 14:“Okay. I locked your dad in the janitor’s closet.”“Did anyone see you?”“Only the janitor. But he was weirdly cool about it.”“Yeah. Yeah, he lets me hide in there between classes. He’s very generous with his space.”(Mainly the part about Amy hiding in the janitor's closet between classes.)

[Podfic] Helping with Armor

by greedy_dancer

An audio performance of Castillon02's story (14 min with music, 12min without music.) Podficcer's summary: “Since it’s only us...do you want to, you know...polish some armor together?” Lambert stared. “What?” he asked. Griffins were known for their courtly manners and good hygiene, but polishing armor? “You know, do some personal polishing,” Coën said, weirdly intent. “Really make sure our swords are looking good.” Lambert bristled. “I know my shit needs a good scrubbing, but you don’t have to point it out as soon as I get here!” Or: Lambert is a defensive bastard with a very poor grasp of euphemism.

He decides he's going to fix this.

Transparency In War

Autobot scientist Baseline has finally run out of options. With her lab destroyed and hardly any combat training, she's reluctantly decided to offer her services to Team Prime, if only she can reach them. To do so, she must employ paranoid Minibot pilot Typhoon, whose reaction to her is less than savory...for good reason.
