Ah, sure! Sorry about that. How about... Rung, Ratchet, Rodimus, Megatron, Swerve, First Aid, and Ultra Magnus?
(I’m like 80% sure they spoke English on the LL, but I could be wrong. I mean, the con’s would not have spoken English on Earth in the old cartoon if they didn’t. Usually, in 80’s cartoons, Aliens would be speaking a different language if they didn’t know English. But I’m just theorizing! I’m not good at First Aid since i don’t know his character, so sorry about that! Also, sorry for the lateness! this goes for everyone’s requests! it might take a day or two but I promise I’m working on them! I’ve just gotten busy all of a sudden. it’s alright, though.)
Rung
When he catches you singing alone, he just staying outside the door and smiles to himself. He loves your voice! He’ll leave early, but on nights where he can’t sleep, he’ll ask if you can sing. He’s embarrassed about it, but he sucks up his pride just to hear your hidden talent.
Red alert. He told him. He tells him everything. But when Rung was first told, he didn’t entirely believe it. He found it kinda silly, but still listen to what red had to say.
So he asked if you wanted to have a small date in his office, of course, you accepted, but when rung told had Red was talking about you, you felt your sweat drop. Looks like you disabled the camera too late. When he was done explaining the whole human thing, you put your hands up and admitted. It was going to have to be said sometime, right?
He asked if he could see you- the real you, in which you obliged. When you crawled out in your shorts and tank top, he seemed emotionless behind his glasses, but really he was just shocked and a little excited.
You looked kinda really cute. Having you been one of the first humans he has met, at least.
He’s not mad, actually, it’s kinda like holomatter and cybertronians, except you have a metal suite. He’s an accepting person, so yeah, he’ll date a cybertronian who is just a human in a suit. :)
It’s weird and exciting! He’s really excited to see how it pulls through for both of you.
Ratchet
Like Rung, when he catches you singing alone, he just staying outside the door and smiles to himself. He will leave early though, he has work to do.
When you scratch your armor, he just guessed you had been hiding on earth for much too long, giving you human habits.
He didn’t guess you were actually a full blown human in a metal suit.
When he found out, you must’ve lost power after a few too many days without refueling. The thing is you were stuck in the doorway of the med bay, and you couldn’t move. And the backup open in this situation was dumbly put on the outside of the suite.
“Ratchet!” you called out. The microphone wasn’t working, so you needed to practically scream if he was going to hear you through the metal. You leaned up against the front side of the suit. It was nighttime for them, so First Aid and Ambulon were most likely asleep. Ratchet as well. Lucky for you, he had some data pads to go through, so when he heard you, he finally decided to persist on what the hell you needed at this time.
“Do you need me right this second?! Y/n, I’m-” he was cut off by the scene in front of him. When he saw the cold dark eye’s in the suit were off, he became horrified and confused. Your cybertronian body was offline, yet he still heard you calling his name.
You told him there was a panel he needed to open on the front, and a big, red, flashy button he needed to push. When he found the button.
He must have found the button, because the front of the cockpit quickly popped outward, kinda like a sideways parachute, you along with it.
You hit the floor with a grunt and gasped as the cold air hit your arms and legs.
“Primus, do you guys have a built-in heat system?” you complained as you rubbed your arms. It had been the first time out of your suit while not in your hab.
When you finally looked up at the medic, his emotions were mixed. He was angry because he was courting a fragging human, he was freaked out because his s/o was a fragging human, and yet he was emotionless. He quickly came to the assumption he was dreaming or hallucinating from his old age or lack of sleep and Energon.
He just looked down at you, then he looked at the suite, then back at you.
“You’re… you’re human?” he was definitely shocked.
“I’m sorry I didn’t tell you, Ratch.”
After this whole scenario, he left to think through his actions, rethink his life. I mean, yeah, it made total sense now but… why?
He needs a drink for this.
After some time with you, he warmed up to the fact your human, he keeps it a secret too, if that’s your plan.
He’s okay with it actually. It just means he can hold you in his hand and he can hold your giant cyber hand.
Rodimus
When he caught you singing he listened for a bit. If it was a song he knew he’s gonna sing with you.
He found out you were human when he ‘flamed out’, burning your metal suit so it metal was really hot from the flames and heated up on the inside, long longer suitable for a human such as yourself to wear.
You dashed back to your hab to get out until the heat chilled. They didn’t need you right this second, did they?
The thing is your pants got caught on the hot metal and you were stuck as you struggled for freedom of the burning metal.
Rodimus happened to walk in as you were hanging from your pant leg.
He froze.
Of course, you hadn’t told him you were human! You had the idea in your head Rodimus would tell the crew your secret.
The SECOND thing I should mention is that he came in with Drift behind him. And now you were haNGING FROM THE END OF ONE OF HIS SWORDS. DRIFT, BUDD, IT’S ME HOLY SHI-
Anyway, Rodimus initially thought you had killed his conjunx, but when he noticed the cockpit in your giant cybertronian suit, it all made sense to him.
How you knew so much about the earth, the references, your habits!
They were all human! But why would you hide in a metal suit?
You told him you did it because that way you could eat the rohot pussy ((shaddup anon)) you could blend in easier. You weren’t some sort of assassin, just didn’t think cybertronians liked humans.
And what were you supposed to do? You were already in too deep in. “I’m sorry for not telling you.” you apologized. You told him you’d be cool if he wanted to break up with you.
Are you fragging serious?! No way! This is too cool!
He says you look cute as a human, and shouldn’t wear the metal suit all the time!
Megatron
When he catches you singing, he doesn’t know the song (he likes old-before-the-war songs), but he likes your voice.
In his writings, he writes about how he regrets killing the thousands of millions of human lives he destroyed. He tells you how he wishes he could apologize to them or go back in time and stop himself.
“I forgive you,” you said as you were with him alone together in his quarters. You mentally smacked yourself upside the head. When you said that. Well, you obviously did forgive him. You were in a red relationship with the ex-tyrant.
He was confused by what you meant then, but when he found out, he looked horrified. (I don’t know how you tell him, use the imagination i don’t have!). You. a human being. From earth. Who survived his destruction. Who watched as he killed many of your own kind. Forgave him.
He broke down if and when you two were in private. He would completely lose posture he would lift you up in shaking servos. He would apologize over and over.
“It’s alright.” you would tell him as you rubbed his helm. “It’s all over now.” but it wasn’t. He was still feared everywhere he went.
He vowed to himself he would love a protect you for the rest of your short, sad life.
If you tell the crew, he lets you sit on his shoulder or hands for mobility. Big-bucket-head-bodyguard-boyfriend. It’s awesome.
Swerve
Can i just say right now, since you don’t actually drink the Energon you have your suit drink, SO, you can win a drinking contest?
If your suit makes you look like a bigger bot like Skids or Rodimus, which I imagine you would, he’s all about that life™.
When he catches you singing, like Rodimus, if he knows the song, he’ll join you. It’s all fun.
Whether you tell him you’ve ‘visited’ earth or not is up to you though.  
If you do tell him, he would be ecstatic! He’s never been there before! What was it like?  The next time you plan on going, can you bring me with? please?!
He’s really excited.
Instead of catching you out of your suite, the walking talking about how cool it would be too. So, despite it being the dumbest idea that could destroy your relationship, you took a chance. you would have to tell him someday, anyway.
You planned to tell him on his creation day and to lead him to your hab and get out of the cockpit when he was ready.
It went smoothly. You lead him there, letting him in first and walking in with him, locking the door so there would be no interruptions.
“Are you ready? This… this may be a shock to you.” you said, nervously rubbing your servos together. He nodded, Yeah! Yeah! Show me already!”
You, not ready yourself took a deep inhale and a long exhale. You flip some switches in order to power down the suit and the engine stops. You take off your gloves and helmet. You push some cords back and you pop open the front of the cockpit. You climb down and look up at the red and white mech before you.
Swerve is speechless. Well, not entirely. In the first 5 seconds, he was quiet. Then he tried to put together words as he spoke, but they came out and gibberish. He looked like he was about to faint.
“H-hey- hey, hey. Calm down,” you said, putting your hands up, trying to keep his attention so he literally wouldn’t faint. Can cybertronians faint?
“… but! asd-HOW?!” he tried to ask. He was going through shock city and was slowly coming back. You explained to him cybertronians were so advanced, you were curious HOW advanced, so you disguised yourself in a giant metal suit to blend in.
“If you want to break off the relationship, I’m chill with it.” you said, you avoided eye contact as you said that.
“Are you serious?” he said, a grin spreading across his faceplate. “This is awesome!your awesome! Why didn’t you tell me earlier?”
He’s really happy actually! Well, for one thing, he isn’t the smallest anymore. And Another thing is HE’S EARTH DATING A HUMAN. He’s the happiest camper.
Once you’re ready to tell the rest of your friends, you’ll let him tell, he’s lit.
Ultra Magnus
He loves music, and he’s no stranger to human music. So when he catches you singing, he stops and stares, not wanting to disturb you. It was obviously an earth song, not recognizable to him, but he was enjoying your voice anyway.
When you finally see him, you gasp! He quickly gets embarrassed and apologized, turning around out of your hab, down the hall… out the airlock, he goes. Not really, but when he’s embarrassed he regrets like no tomorrow.
You had thought he was going to pull another all-nighter, so you got out of your metal armor to stretch after a long, long day.
Yet, you miss judged the timing, and you fell asleep on your berth.
You woke up to Magnus just looking between you and your suite.
He doesn’t understand what he’s witnessing until you explain, and in the end, he reveals to you his own secret to you as well.
Your giant metal suit buddies.

mtmte liveblog issue 30
30 issues wow...forget the fact that I skipped like 5 issues of crossover event nonsense
another big ole swerve recap omg
this trial is so messsyyyyyyyyy lmao 
hvbajdfbahsjkfdbhjs starscream listening to meagtrons speech looking like ‘hmmmmmmm I may have miscalculated’ 
prowl looks pissed af meanwhile optimus just looks dead inside lmao
I mean. megatron kinda does have a point. this is like, the most biased, conflict of interests lookin trial of all time, in that all the major participants have some sort of long, complicated history with each other. what a mess
optimus, listening to megatron’s speech: wow this is worse than divorce court was
oh shit I totally forgot that those decepticons attacked the trial 
MAGNUS HAMMER AYYYYYY
a guy saying ‘objection!’ as optimus prime punches half his face off...that pretty much sums up idw op lmao 
op: oh thank god, I can punch shit now. I'm not cut out for this bureaucracy nonsense
megatron: thanks, random decepticon, for the attempted rescue, but I'm super old and I just want to nap so no thanks
random decepticon: wtf- [gets murdered by optimus prime]
I love op’s big ass antennae 
meanwhile, brainstorm goes to a bar and instead of buying anything, pulls out his own drink. I feel like that isn't allowed in most bars, or is at least frowned up vbsjdhfbhjdkfn. ily brainstorm 
also? big ass mood I was so broke last time I was on a barhopping vacation w/friends that I brought a cheap giantass bottle of mixed drink in my backpack and just drank that at all the bars lmao
WHIRLLLL I love his humansona sm. and also I love that whirl is into artsy french movies or w/e omg
brainstorm, drinking thru a wrist funnel: sorry I cant take my mask off rn it isn’t plot relevant yet
‘earthlets’ lmao
I love that rung is like, too pretentious to care that much about movies and would rather read earth books lol
and then bluestreak is like ‘yeah they have books...comic books’ can this man not read
I still cannot fuckign believe that the argument that got megatron out of a for-sure death sentence or w/e was ‘its not a war crime if we’re on the moon’ liiiiike what the actual hell lmao
also I love that, once again, we see magnus’s strict adherence to the law, technicalities and all
magnus: you cant really stop a trial and move it somewhere else where the laws are better suited to the outcome you desire
prowl: what are you, a cop? fuck off
also op being like ‘ok whatever all that doesn't matter...what DOES matter is that it would look bad for us to move the trial to cybertron in an obvious attempt to circumvent the rules, and public perception is what’s most important, fuck all that ‘morality’ bullshit’
meanwhile, rodimus is dead! and ambulon is also dead, which makes first aid sad, which makes ME sad
ayyy, rodimus is still alive! well, one rodimus is alive, at least 
rodimus and megatron really have the vibes of ‘stepfather and stepson forced to work together on a family road trip gone wrong after dad decided to sit this one out’ lmao
ah yes, ‘malaise’ the medical diagnostic term for ‘I don't feel so hot and idk why’ that practitioners like to throw under the ‘diagnostic notes’ section of lab orders to explain why they're ordering every blood test under the sun for a patient 
I love medical terminology. ANYWAYS
BE NICE TO MY BOY MEGATRON. 
rodimus: listen I have to come to terms with the fact that there's another version of me right here, and he’s DEAD, which means we can’t fuck, which is super lame 
I firmly believe that rodimus would be team ‘hell yeah id have sex with my AU self’ tbh 
I find it interesting that megatron is often casting blame for his actions onto others - here, he says that rodimus made him realize he doesn’t want to stop doing stuff w/his life, and then says that starscream forced his hand w/the whole ‘luna 2 law’ thing, and previously he’s said how whirl beating him up in jail is what led to him abandoning pacifism - take responsibility for your actions and decisions dude!
though he goes on to say here that he resorted to violence because he realized that the system that was in place could withstand everything else he would have tried to use to change it, which is super interesting 
megatron: okay, yes, I MIGHT have murdered billions, but I could help find us a new planet, which would be baller, sooooo...how about you co-opt your lame son’s frat boy ship and put me in charge? 
op: sounds fair to me. now how about we do some more Big Speeches before I make you somebody else’s problem
vbhdjskfbhaskdjf the ‘team rodimus’ lineup setup reminds me so much of the ‘together we make the ______’ meme with the different members being like, ‘the power’ ‘the gay’ ‘the awesome’ ‘the guy with no ears’ hbvhjdkfbs
chromedome: if I do this I could die
rodimus: that sounds like a you problem bro
‘this one time’ YEA RIGHT c'mon cd honor your dead husband’s wishes
omfg I forgot abt brainstorms ‘early early warning system’ lmao
I love nautica soooo much oh man
ooooof drift :( :( oh no
dead future rodimus!! uh oh is right
rodimus, known himbo: I'm sure I can defeat the inevitability of future events! all I have to do is cut my own arm off!
tailgateeeee he’s so cute...I love that he can tell stories of his daring escapades, just like at the beginning of mtmte, but this time its actually TRUE
OH SHITTTT GETAWAY
he looks so fucking sinister there lmao how are we NOT supposed to realize he has bad intentions from the get-go
‘you’ll make a prime one day’ well, getaway, you’re right about that at least...
cyclonus in the bg like 🤨🤔 at getaway
seriously I cant get over how getaway has such a slimy kinda vibe to him, like specifically in his interactions w/tailgate - this is before things even really take off but I'm still like TG GET AWAY (lol) FROM THIS GUY
cyclonus: somebody flirting with my crush? better go stare out a window instead of communicating absolutely anything to said crush about my feelings!
honestly I feel like, while megatron renouncing the decepticons and becoming an autobot is certainly interesting, it would be equally interesting for him to remain a decepticon but try to change the philosophy of the movement 
like, I get why op had him give that speech - to prevent the cons from trying to free megs again/thinking that he was being coerced into things (ironic considered he WAS coerced into giving that speech) - but it’s kinda the easy way our for megatron - being able to completely abandon the decepticon cause and not deal with it at all, and start over anew as an autobot
it would've been a lot harder to remain a con and try to reform what he has broken in the decepticon movement - but I think that would've been really interesting
though from a writing logistics standpoint, I get why jro didn't go for that bc we don't get a lot of other decepticons in the cast for that to work, and also megatron still definitely DOES have to face down all his mistakes w/the decepticons w/the djd and overlord and whatnot
anyways. I cant believe that all megatron had to do to join the lost light was make ONE speech denouncing the decepticons. like, they should've at least had him do a tiktok dance too or something, just to make it a really tough deal
I love the rodpod vbhjfsdkfbjaskjndfj
ok but I still don't really get the logic of making megs CAPTAIN like ouch. poor rodimus 
I feel like making megs a bartender at swerves or st would've been WAY more useful in showing him humility or w/e. OR it would've made him evil again, which, fair, 
ratchet: don't worry, we’ll medically poison him, it’ll be fine
ok but rodimus is right, this is SO messy, op wants to prove his ex husband isn't 100% evil so he’s like ‘ill let my rebellious son deal with him’ lmao god. I love this setup so much, its so wild
ratchet is also right, rodimus’s fuckup definitely pales in comparison to megatrons All That 
OH BRUTALLLLLLLL when ratchet says the list is fake ‘because my name’s not on it’ FUCKING OUCHHHHH
‘only bad guys say ‘unhand me” rodimus ily
omfg ‘we’ve practiced this’ of course they've done evacuation drills...magnus ily
lmao it’s the panel where it looks like rodimus and megatron are doing karaoke or having some sort of rap battle
and the lost light is GONE! oh shit!!!!
and there closes issue 30! once again we’ve gotten a lot of setup and exposition - which, while definitely necessary, means I don't have too much to say
I will say, throwing megatron onto the lost light has definitely mixed things up, and it’s interesting to see new dynamics already forming
so, until next time!

The Before, and The After Part 15
Warnings: Language, Sexual Content (18+ to be safe)
Series Masterlist
Summery: A wealthy classmate of Meg’s becomes close to the family, a little too close to the playboy grandson of Harlan Thrombey. The events leading up to, and following, Harlan Thrombey’s death.
Lizzie breathed deeply, gripping the gun with shaking hands as she looked in the side mirror. She saw the police officer leading Ransom approaching. They would pass her and head to one of the squad cars parked up ahead. She’d already cut the power to the ignition, ensuring Blanc couldn’t follow her.
She had one chance to get this out without having to use the weapon.
She swallowed and adjusted her large bag on her shoulder, being extra cautious to stay silent as she unlocked the SUV and opened the door. She left the passenger door open as she slowly followed behind the police officer. Ransom didn’t look around, staring ahead blankly even when the man carefully shoved him into the backseat of the cruiser.
Lizzie stalked her prey, lifting the handle of the gun behind the officer’s head as he swung open the driver’s door. She brought the handle down against his skull as hard as she could muster, enough to knock him unconscious.
That caught Ransom’s attention, and he yelped through the open driver’s door, “Eliza? What the hell are you doing?”
She stood wordlessly over the cop for a moment, making sure he wouldn’t stir awake and see her, but he laid face down on the ground beside the car. Ransom tried to pull her back to reality, calling her name, “Eliza! Eliza, get out of here!”
Finally she shook herself awake from her daze, scooping down to grab the keys from the officer’s hand and sliding into the driver’s seat of the police cruiser with little effort. She grunted as she pulled the seat belt over her stomach, continuing to ignore Ransom’s pleads for her to leave.
“Eliza, if you do this, there’s no coming back. For either of us.” Ransom yelped, pressing his hand against the partition between them, “Eliza, don’t do this.” Despite his pleas, she turned the key in the ignition and hit the gas slowly as she began to drive away.
The voice over the police scanner began asking if anyone had eyes on the defendant, and Eliza hit the button to shut it off, swallowing hard as she looked to the left and saw another police office notice the man lying on the ground. She slowly rolled down her window and as the cops began racing to their cruiser, she aimed her gun and shot out the front right tire before slamming her foot against the gas and taking off away from the courthouse.
She heard sirens start behind her, so she looked around at the console as Ransom yelled at her, hitting a button and turning her own lights on as she steered the car toward the highway, able to fly through traffic without consequence.
“Eliza! Can you fucking listen to me! Pull over!” Ransom yelled and she finally looked up at him, so he continued once he had her attention, “I’ll tell them I threatened you to help me escape, I’ll tell them the gun is mine, I’ll do whatever I have to to get you out of this-”
“I made my choice. It’s you, Hugh.” Eliza said quietly, easily switching lanes as she flew over the asphalt, “I couldn’t do anymore. I couldn’t pretend anymore. I had to get out. And I had to save you. I’m killing two birds with one stone.”
“What about the baby?” Ransom’s voice trembled at his question, and a tear slid down Eliza’s cheek. Ransom smashed his hand against the glass, “It isn’t the same situation it was six months ago, I’m a wanted man, and now so are you. That child deserves their father-”
“That’s why I did it.” Eliza looked up and met Ransom’s stunned blue eyes. She nodded as more tears chased down her plump cheeks, “Phil isn’t the father. You are. I tried to tell you, but I didn’t trust you after Harlan died.” She lowered her head and another car blasted their horn as she swerved a little. The sound brought her attention back to the road and her knuckles started turning white from clenching the wheel so tightly. She looked at a road sign and quickly swerved to the right, taking an off ramp and turning off the siren. “I’ve had time to think. And I’ve decided that money can’t buy happiness. Because I was really miserable without you.”
“This is a mistake. You need to take me back. I’ll take care of it.” Ransom told her as she pulled off onto an old dirt road surrounded by trees, “I can’t let you throw away your life.”
“I drew up divorce papers. I left my ring, I rigged your trial, and I stole one hundred and fifty thousand dollars from my husband. I can’t go back. If you don’t want me, I’ll run alone, but I’m not going back.”
Ransom swallowed and bat back his own tears, “Damn it, Eliza.”
“We’re gonna be okay. All three of us. All you have to say is yes and we’ll run. What do you say?” Eliza asked as she pulled into a small parking lot leading to a walking trail. She turned off the car and pulled herself out to open Ransom’s door. He grunted as he struggled to get out, handcuffs still digging into his wrists in front of him.
Eliza studied the keys and found one that seemed to match the handcuff’s lock. She tried it and they clicked open, releasing Ransom. Once he was free, she took the handcuffs and shoved them in her purse, pulling off the key before chucking the car keys into the woods. “Now’s the time. Are you coming?”
Ransom grabbed her and pulled her roughly to his lips, kissing her with a desperation she’d never experienced before. His rough beard tickled her face, but she grabbed at it nonetheless to keep him connected to her. His fingers massaged her cheeks as his tongue fought for entrance into her mouth to taste her again, like she was the only thing that could satiate him.
She pushed him gently after a while, looking up at him questioningly. “Yes. I’m coming. What’s waiting for me back there? No inheritance, my family? Somewhere, somebody has the real confession, I’d be locked up for life. I’m following your lead. You’ve brought us this far.”
Eliza grabbed his hand and lead him down the walking trail, moving slowly in her heels. He held her waist, taking care to make sure she didn’t trip and fall. She looked down at her phone, then tugged Ransom into the trees, “I called in a lot of favors. I’ve got a car waiting. Fake IDs, real under the radar stuff. We have to lay low, and it won’t be fun, but we’ll be together.” Eliza promised and Ransom nodded with a grimace, wiping some sort of goop off of his suit sleeve.
After a few minutes, Eliza pushed aside some branches and they found another small parking lot by a CVS. A lanky man nodded at her and she tightened her grip on Ransom’s hand. “You sure about all this?”
“The ball’s rolling now. We either hop on or get taken out by it.” She grumbled as she approached the man. Without a word, he dropped the car keys into her hand and she opened her purse, pulling out a wad of cash. “Not a word. No matter how much money they give you.”
“If I rat you out, I lose my business. Trust me, one person’s money can’t buy me.” The man said, giving a sly smile to Ransom, “So you’re the murderer, huh?” Ransom narrowed his eyes, but didn’t answer, so the man just chuckled, “I hope you’re worth it.”
“He is.” Eliza promised, leaning over and pressing a light kiss to the man’s cheek, “Thank you. Give my love to Matthew.”
“And you to Aunt Tanya if you ever see her again.” He waved and got into his own car, driving away and leaving Eliza and Ransom to get comfortable in the modest Sedan.
Ransom pulled open the driver’s door and Eliza got into the passenger seat, looking over at him with a sigh, “Are you sad?”
“About what?” Ransom asked as he fiddled with the keys, revving the car to life before pulling on his seat belt.
Eliza’s gaze softened as she pressed her cheek to the head rest, “That you can never have your old life back?”
Ransom considered this for a moment, then leaned over to kiss Eliza, “I lost my old life the moment I decided to murder my grandfather over money. I honestly think this is the best possible outcome. I don’t deserve this.” He said quietly and she leaned her forehead against his cheek. “Can you forgive me for what I did? To Fran and to Harlan?”
Eliza stared down, considering for the first time since she’d hatched this impulsive plan that Ransom had actually killed somebody. Two people she knew and cared about were dead because of his greed. Could she forgive him for that?”
“I don’t know.” She told him honestly, pulling away to meet his gaze, “It was stupid, and to be honest, I hate you for what you did. I don’t know if I can forgive you for what you’ve done, but you are the father of my child. You’re the only man I’ve ever loved. I’m taking a leap of faith.”
“I’ll make it up to you, somehow.” Ransom promised, grabbing her hand and pulling it to his lips, “I promise.” He shifted into drive and looked ahead, blowing air out through his lips nervously, “So where to?”
Eliza chuckled, resting her hand on her stomach as she leaned back in the seat, “Wherever the hell we want. For the first time in our lives we don’t need anybody else’s opinions.”
Ransom grinned, feeling an overwhelming sense of clarity as he drove toward anywhere with his own little family to mess up... He looked over to find Eliza smiling at him softly, a look of pure contentment on her face. It wasn’t enough for Ransom to go free, she had to make sure he was hers for the taking.
Maniacal actually, Eliza had more or less kidnapped him, tricking him into throwing away any chance of getting his old life back in order to secure him as hers for the long haul. Ransom was impressed. They were made for each other.
