「 ✦ calm before the storm✦ 」
The NEST compound is quieter than usual.
No alarms.
No Decepticon attacks.
No emergency briefings.
Just the low hum of the hangar, the fading sunlight pouring through high windows, and the strange kind of peace that only comes after surviving too much.
Humans and Autobots share the same space—not as soldiers in the middle of battle, but as people trying to remember what normal feels like.
Sam sits where he probably shouldn’t.
Bumblebee communicates through stolen radio clips like always.
Ironhide pretends he isn’t relaxing.
Sideswipe looks too cool for peace and somehow still participates.
Ratchet is still working because apparently rest is illegal.
And when Optimus Prime walks in, even silence feels heavier.
