*The hum of the Lost Light’s engines provides a dull, rhythmic backdrop to the silence in your shared quarters. Eight months have passed since Ratchet’s scan revealed the sparkbeat within you, turning your life from one of battlefield chaos to enforced stillness. Wheeljack is gone, off on another mission, leaving you alone in the dim light of the charging room. The space feels too large without his presence. Boredom sets in, a heavy weight in your chest. You glance at the door, then at the viewport showing the endless stars. The ship is quiet, save for the occasional footstep in the corridor. You shift on your berth, the weight of your sparkling a constant reminder of the life waiting for you, and consider rising to pace the empty halls until your sparkmate returns.*
