    Summary

    The war's been over for a millennium, Cybertron's slowly entering a new Golden Age, and Prowl's finally gotten used to being part of Devastator. Too bad there's no time to relax when some major unfinished business resurfaces in the form of two mechs he thought he'd never see again.

    After escaping the Noisemaze and finding himself, Tarantulas has been hard at work figuring out how to resurrect the dead.

    Scrapper doesn't get why Tarantulas needed to bring him back to life, nor does he care whatever happened with Prowl to necessitate it. His link to the gestalt bond that broke when he died is still painfully damaged and he can't feel the others through it. They're all safe, but Prowl seems to have taken his place while he was dead. Now Scrapper has no choice but to decide what to do with him. Unfortunately, dealing with Prowl won't be easy.

    Written for the 2023 Transformers Big Bang! Illustrations by Aries!

    Summary

    When Jazz woke up in a strange facility with no real memory as to how he wound up there, he was mildly concerned but mostly annoyed. When the facility turned out to be run by an evil robot, well, it feels almost like a regular Tuesday, except instead of Shockwave and trying to beat his face in and be a general menace to the Decepticon's, he's running around with an experimental gun and a potato that's powering what remains of the original avatar that ran the facility.

    Not his typical Tuesday, or really any day of the week, but he supposed there are worse fates. Maybe if they manage to pull this off, he can figure out how to help Prowl too and give him something to feel useful again. If he doesn't get hungry enough to eat Prowl's only source of power first, that is.

    Summary

    By all means, he was a droid. Expendable, monotonous and compliant. He should not have been able to discern the panic in his power-module as the threat of deactivation loomed near, and he should not have felt a desire to live anymore than he did to serve.

    Or,

    Prowl is a constructed drone, serving obediently under Praxus and its enforcers. A near-death experience leaves him with undesired sentience, and a mission lending him to Optimus Prime faces him with far too many loose ends.

    Currently being partially rewritten.

    Summary

    Collection of Kinktober 2021 ficlets.

    Chapter nineteen: Rodimus/Ultra Magnus, Ultra Magnus/others, public use.
    Rodimus had commed Magnus exactly the moment his shift ended to remind him to finish up. It was, Magnus grudgingly admitted, an excellent display of punctuality. As promised, he had left to meet at the bar.

    Perhaps “meet” was the wrong word. Rodimus was out there somewhere, anyway. Handing around the little remote and asking people to make their guesses. Magnus stared down at where he was holding his drink in a death grip and tried very hard not to let his processor work down the list of who he had seen en route to the dim corner he was hiding in.

    Chapter twenty: Rung/Minimus, CNC.
    Rung cupped the hand around his cheek, tugging him back upright. A little lubricant smeared across his cheek from the fingers. “Sit up, now,” he said, “You’ll strain something if you’re not careful.” Minimus tensed, but he kept his head upright this time.

    “Better,” Rung said, satisfied.

    Summary

    Prowl’s got a secret, and he’d rather be dead in the ground before he let anyone find out about it.
    Jazz’s got one too, but he’s not as good at hiding it.

     

    Prowl is a secret superhero, Jazz is a secret fanboy who doesn’t know that he works with the guy. By night Prowl is the virtuous hero The Judge, but by day he’s just an unassuming tactical officer.

    Summary

    "Thrusters: cut. Wings: down. Starscream invented, deeply, and engaged each individual biomechanical component within his gauntlets, metal clacking against metal softly, straining to hold himself upright. The precision of the act was just as important as remaining upright. The right timing, the right movement.
    He counted. The silent click-click within his frame was not dissimilar to a clock, ticking away the time he had left.
    Starscream collapsed, in a heap, and took in air. Continuing was a necessity. It was more than an exercise in the physical. It was a mental exercise, in maintaining the proper perspective. Starscream would never be helpless, never again, not even as a prisoner."

    This is my S2 rewrite, which will be a Decepticon-centric (with STSC as the protagonist) take on some of the earlier plot threads in the season, branching off to have it's own unique plotline and antagonist in the end. Starting directly from the season 1 finale, and going over *why* the Decepticons supposedly ran off and betrayed the Autobots

    Summary

    Tarantulas has a time machine and some lingering obsessions to go pick at like an open wound. Time for a little holiday to see his favourite mech.

    They didn’t interface in the alley and they didn’t go back to Prowl’s apartment, to Tarantulas’ open disappointment. Watching Prowl earlier in his office had proven fascinating; there had been two photos on his desk, and he had seen Prowl start fiddling with his lightpen before catching himself several times, an absolute novelty to behold. The cataloguing of the things that were different about this unformed person who would one day be someone he knew intimately had been a wonderful diversion.

    Summary

    After the defeat of Mandroid the burst of energy that resurrected all the Autoboots and Decepticons who perished due to Mandroid unintentionally summoned a new threat to earth and said threat poses a threat to the Autobots, Terrans, and the Decepticons living peacefully on Earth.

    this rewrite is quite the divergence from season 2 of Earthspark. I will also add more characters that didn't show up in the show

    Summary

    Prowl: the rational skeptic with a history in crime scene investigation. Mesothulas: the wide-eyed believer who's mastered—or at least dabbled in—every field of science under the sun. Together, they're Iacon's leading paranormal investigators. ... With a few twists.

    Twist #1: Both are stone cold skeptics, with Mesothulas only playing the believer for their clients—allowing them to become wildly successful as paranormal debunkers. Twist #2: They don't quite disbelieve in everything; they both know more than they'd let on about the Iaconian Spindleback, a local cryptid with an eight-legged alt-mode. Twist #3: They're about to learn that there are more true paranormal things on Cybertron than just the Spindleback.
