that first night (we were standing at your door)
| leah williamson x reader | fluff | 1.7k | a/n: haven't written anything in a minute so lets see how this goes. this is set in the same universe at 'i promise that i'll love you'. and is technically just a small backstory. also idk how to feel about this one ngl. so, if this sucks we're just going to ignore it yeah? cool beans. anyways, happy reading! 🫶
~~~
The low hum of the car is the only audible sound in the silence that surrounds you and Leah. 
Combined with the starlit sky and the inevitable chilly London air you still haven’t gotten used to, the moment feels anything but stifling, a sense of calm sitting easily in the space between you two. 
The defender had taken you sightseeing around London earlier in the day, jokingly claiming to be the best tour guide in the country when she’d found out you hadn’t explored much of the city yet. 
You’d easily agreed to the outing, too caught up in the blue of Leah’s eyes to even fathom the idea of saying no. 
It’s how, a little less than three days later, you’d ended up getting picked up in the early hours of the morning by one way too cheery Leah and a promise of the best full English you were ever bound to have. 
Spending the rest of the day following the blonde around as she took you to a handful of the obvious, and then many of the lesser-known attractions around the city, her warm hand in yours as she excitedly pointed out things for you to take note of was a day well spent, if you were asked. 
Between learning Leah’s concerningly plain Nando’s order, swapping stories of your childhoods, and visiting nearly every major landmark in a forty mile radius, the day flew by in a breeze.
You don’t remember enjoying yourself this much in a while. 
With the way your stomach hurt as you laughed at the many stories the blonde shared about her childhood and of the shenanigans she’d gotten up to with teammates in the past, your supposed quick lunch spanned nearly an hour and a half. 
And somewhere between the shy smile Leah shot your way as you hid your face behind your hands one too many times at the terrible puns she made during your walks, and the charming toothy grin she’d give you before opening your doors and pulling out your chairs, you knew you were falling. 
Soon enough, before you knew it, much of the day had passed without either of you realizing, dawn slowly creeping into dusk as street lights began to cast a golden hue on your path, the cool English breeze creeping in as your lack of jackets became apparent.
So with Leah nervously inviting you out for dinner with her, reasoning that it would be criminal to spend the whole of the morning, afternoon, and much of the evening together only to send you home hungry, you’d agreed easily yet again, matching smiles on both your faces as she’d opened her car door for you, helping you settle in. 
It’s how you found yourself to where you were now- stomachs full, one of your playlists playing on mute in the car as the pair of you revelled in the quiet comfort of each other’s presence.
It may have been only your third official date, but you knew deep down that the blonde’s presence was one you wanted for a while, your hand itching to reach out and intertwine with hers as it sat rested on the gear shift. 
Feeling the car roll to a slow stop, you were quickly jolted out of your thoughts, your staring at Leah’s hands not going unnoticed by the blonde, her smiling amusedly at you before quickly shifting the gear into park, you only then taking note of your surroundings.
You’d finally made it back home after a whole day out with the blonde.
You didn’t know if that was a good thing or not. 
Turning your head to see Leah looking back at you, expression hidden in the lack of light, you swallowed hard as you felt your heart sink a little at what was next. 
You’d spent more than half the given hours in a day with the blonde, yet you didn’t want the night to end just yet. 
Apparently Leah thought so too, her quietly uttered words bringing a small grin to your face as you realized you were unknowingly on the same page. 
“I’ll walk you up?”
Nodding in response, you laughed as Leah wagged a finger in your direction and quickly threatened you to not open your door, instead hastily undoing her own belt and rushing around the car to grab it for you. 
Shaking your head as you let yourself be helped out of the car, you couldn’t help the way your lips curled at the proud look on the defender’s face. 
Intertwining your hands with Leah’s, you gently tugged her to follow you up your steps, the warmth emanating from her body mixed with the cool air causing goosebumps to rise on your arms.
“You do realize you didn’t have to open all the doors all day, right?”
Asking over your shoulder, you held back your laugh as you caught the sheepish smile on the other girl’s face. 
“Gotta treat you right, yeah?”
Hiding the red hue that began to coat your cheeks at the words, you began looking for your keys in your shoulder bag, fumbling as you tried to take them out gracefully. 
Doing your best not to shiver as you felt Leah come to a stop beside you, your shoulders nearly touching as she watched you, you wondered silently if you should just ask her to come in. 
You couldn’t, could you?
Surely it was too soon to invite her in to stay a while, but you didn’t want the night to end just yet. 
Pulling your keys out as you met Leah’s mirth filled eyes, face perfectly illuminated by your outdoor lights, you watched as the blonde studied your face intently, eyes dropping down to lips briefly before they shot back up to meet your own. 
“Do you- ”
“Can I- ”
The both of you bursting into quiet laughter, you shook your head as you gathered your bearings, a wide grin on your face this time, nerves nearly gone as you beckoned for Leah to speak. 
Eyes widening as she stepped a bit closer to you, you saw her hands hesitate for a second before they came to rest on either side of your torso.
Hiding your smile at the timid expression that appeared on the blonde’s face, you raised your eyebrows in silent jest, urging her to ask her question again. 
“Can I kiss you?”
Eyes widening briefly, you did your best not to seem too eager, nodding quickly in response as your own eyes flickered to Leah’s lips before fluttering shut, her perfume infiltrating your senses in the best way as pulled you close to her, a steadying grip on your waist. 
You could nearly feel the initial grin on Leah’s face, one that quickly was wiped away as she slotted her lips against yours, goosebumps rising on your body for different reasons this time as you were gently tugged closer. 
It was only when Leah pulled back briefly, not letting go of her hold on you and instead pressing your foreheads together, did you process what just happened, the corners of your mouth upturning in content. 
“Wow…”
Opening your eyes, you pulled back slightly to meet Leah’s gaze only to see a matching grin on her face. 
“Thanks.”
Rolling your eyes, the grin from earlier not having left your face, you shook your head in faux annoyance, your own hand coming to rest on the blonde’s forearm. 
“So humble, aren’t ya…”
Laughing at the furrowing eyebrows and appalled look that took over the other girl’s face, you twirled your keys in your hand, contemplating whether you should bite the bullet and invite her in. 
Apparently the Englishwoman had the same question as you, head tilting to the side as recalled your unfinished question from earlier. 
“What were you going to ask?”
Swallowing hard as you dangled your house keys in your hands, the clinking noise of them causing you to wince, you figured that at worst, all Leah could say was no, right?
Biting the bullet, you closed your eyes, trying to focus on the gentle but firm grip that she had on your waist, to revel in the comfort of the touch. 
“I was just- I just wanted to ask if you maybe wanted to come in? Have a tea or something?”
Taking a quick glance at the surprised look you received in response, you immediately began back pedalling, fearing you’d overstepped.
“You don’t have to! I just figured you’d maybe wanted a break from driving and navigating around?”
Your pitch rose at the end of your sentence, causing you to wince and just how nervous you sounded. 
Suddenly, the silence that was comforting in the confines of the car was not stifling in the open air, the length of time between your question and Leah’s response causing your heart rate to spike for reasons other than the kiss you both had just shared. 
After what felt like minutes (but was probably no longer than about twenty seconds), you felt your chest ease up as the English skipper gave you a quick smile in response, nodding her eagerly. 
“I’d love that.”
“Yeah?”
Getting a hum in response as Leah intertwined her hands with yours, comfort thrumming in your veins once again, you let out the breath you didn’t know you’d been holding, turning to face your door with a wide smile as you unlocked the door, tugging Leah to follow you as you stepped inside. 
“I’d love nothing more.”
Smiling to yourself in victory, your cheeks nearly hurting by now, you puffed your chest in pride, heart content with just how amazing your day had been.
And your perfect day that didn’t have to end just yet.
Leading the blonde through your house, you flicked on the lights as you told her to make herself home- a statement you didn’t know you both would take so literally, Leah practically moving in with you after you’d pass your one-year anniversary. 
And you wouldn’t realize it till years later, when you’d be sat at your kitchen island in your shared home together, figuring out wedding decorations as matching rings adorned your ring fingers, that this exact moment was technically the shared start of the rest of your lives.

I figure I should start posting my TF Nation stuff here as well.
[Image ID: A Transformers poster featuring Jazz. The poster is styled to look reminiscent of a horror movie poster, with lots of black ink and shadows. The whole thing is tinted with a blue hue. Jazz is walking down a dark corridor, gun in hand. His head is turned around as if he hears something in the distance, His stance is tense. Looming behind him, and appearing from the shadows is TFP Soundwave. Two of his tentacles unfurling over Jazz’s head. End ID]
(I also actually wrote this scene as a short fic snippet if anyone wants to read)

I'd like to give my Tyrest cosplay away for free :)
Hes just standing here and I would love to see him in action again somewhere. I was hoping for someone whos at TFNation but I would ship him to the US. You only need to pay shipping (30-60€) DM for details
You might need to replace some wing parts. I'll happily explain that part for you. But other than that hes complete. I will check everything over before I ship it out and happily do some small repairs

A neat thing about TFNation as a con is that they really do pay attention to what's going on in the fandom from month to month; there's no crystallized idea of what the convention has to be or who gets to be involved
Popular YouTubers will spring up contributing exclusive videos or doing live shows; fans with unique expertise host panels on their niche obsessions; expert cosplayers get to shape the competition; talented performers can throw whole-ass shows
There's always so much fresh and new and different stuff every year and that's a big part of how it can continue to bring in new people and cover so many corners of our diverse and amazing and weird and cool community
*Marge Simpson voice* I just think it's neat, is all

I fixed the temporary PFP to the new one! It's starscream! Everyone's favorite second-in-command!
The yellow pfp was the original color scheme but it doesn't match the tone of the comic AT ALL so I changed it. Also it doesn't look like starscream sooo that sealed the deal. I still think it looks kinda nifty though! tried to be creative with colors

Bro I’m not into the new boy groups but I thought like &team and 8turn were the same or something and they were under kq with xikers? And I thought like trendz and tnx were the same or something idk I’m not into any of the newly debuted boy groups. I think mcnd, t1419, kingdom and ghost9 were the last new ones I got into and Luminious too. Like and what’s an ntx? Also I’ve heard of jwiiver and tempest and saw both their debut mvs I’m not a fan. But I like Younite, mostly because eunsang and I think I might get more into epex because mu but I’m not sure, anyway lol I’m too old to keep up with like all these groups that keep debuting bro Idk I get confused there’s so many and sometimes I really look at them and think they’re the same as another unless I see a member with a distinct defining feature lol.
ALSO WHAT THE FUCK PEOPLE ARE WRITING &TEAM SMUT ARENT THEY LIKE 12 OR SOMETHING? I’m still traumatized every time I see an epipen or txt smut floating around I’m like 👀 what the fuck?

A thread of stuff I remember from Brian Ruckley's IDW2 retrospective panel from TFNation this weekend, in no particular order:
• Brian scoured the TFwiki for all the female TFs that he could use; he was very clear on presenting them as a normal part of TF society from the start, no weird 'explanations' needed
• He planned out the main story beats he wanted to hit in his head, but didn't make extensive notes or anything
• If it hadn't been truncated, the Exarchon plotline would have - pending Hasbro approval - dealt with the Quintessons and their region of space, cut off from the rest of the universe. They wouldn't have been involved with Cybertron's origins
• He praised the work of all the artists but in particular Anna Malkova, who he considered the best thing to come out of IDW2 and particularly impressive for moving from artwork to comic storytelling
• Flamewar was an obvious favourite, one of many characters without much existing fiction which allowed for more freedom
• One of the main themes of the series was trauma, embodied in characters like Cyclonus and his ghosts
• Geomotus and others showed that neurodivergence exists in Cybertronians; he wanted to show that there was a variety of ways in which characters could see the world
• The Technobots annual was condensed down from a full story arc which would have featured the Terrorcons; the Technos were chosen as Brian's favourite combiner team
• He didn't want loads of combiners running around too soon, hence the Enigma being thrown into the sea; it would have resurfaced eventually
• He considered one of his biggest weaknesses to be that he didn't make individual issues read as well on their own rather than 'in the trade'; he hoped that he had gotten better at it as the series went on
• Favourite TF character types included female transformers and teleporters; he wanted Skywarp to be a trickster-type figure
• As the series went on Starscream would have remained neither a true Decepticon nor in any way an Autobot, trusted by no one and yet charming/threatening/maneuvering them into keeping him around
• A continuing theme would be the gap between how Cybertronians see themselves and how other species view them; organic planets would consider these giant robots terrifying
• He doesn't consider himself good at big shock reveals and doesn't like bait-and-switches, so tried not to do either during the series
• Despite the long-form storytelling aspect of the book, his personal favourite issues were the one-shots that divided each story arc, like Wheeljack on the moon
• The senate attack that kicked off the war in earnest was originally meant to come earlier in the series
• He didn't originally know that the continuity was being rebooted when he was asked to pitch for a TF comic; there was a lot of back-and-forth at the start as Hasbro kept adding requests
• The series would have gotten to humans eventually, although Brian wanted the TFs to encounter them already in space rather than on Earth
• He enjoys writing comics more than novels, and would happily do only the former if given the chance
• He needed a science-related TF to be the initial murder victim; he sent a shortlist of names to be approved and they chose Brainstorm
• Hasbro did not want too many original characters created for the series; the ones he invented were all done so because they were integral to the narrative
• Once they were told about the license being lost, Brian made a conscious decision not to kill a bunch of characters off before the end; he thinks that it would be too cynical, and that deaths have to serve a contextual and narrative purpose to be meaningful. He also recognises that every character is someone's favourite, and now they can imagine the adventures they might have in the future
All in all, a really interesting and honest panel! Thanks to Brian and all the artists for my favourite TF continuity ever; RIP IDW2
