Summary
Soundwave's banishment to the shadowzone has been bleak, uneventful and unending. He hasn't been able to contact Megatron or the Nemesis. He's low on fuel. If it weren't for the emotion-suppressing protocols he implemented before the war, he would be miserable.
And then one day a dimension-hopping Rodimus falls into the shadowzone and offers him a way out.
“You'll like the Lost Light,” said Rodimus. “Everyone gets a second chance, there. You wanna stay here forever?”

Bookmarker's Notes
'Soundwave got to his feet and loomed his appreciation at the stage.'
----
'No. He needed a plan that was achievable by the chronically tired and emotionally downtrodden.'Enemies to lovers that puts emphasis on the enemies part with great character interactions, worldbuilding and action/adventure. (Everyone hated Soundwave for his overflowing charisma, or maybe it was the murder attempts and disregard for others, who knows)

Summary
A Prime is never late, nor is he early. He arrives precisely when he means to… give or take that one small paracausal nudge.
Or, that time the Matrix got impatient and stole a truck...
It's only going to get more and more hazardous to binge all of this:
✔️ Optimus Prime being iconically wholesome
✔️ Cybertron being an exotic mechanical wonderland
✔️ Mystery, adventure, and intrigue
✔️ Not so much a slow burn as a long fuse

Summary
"There was something odd about Jasper, Nevada. In the sixties the groundwater had been tinged electric-blue and tasted of saltpeter, it was still said."
June Darby does not believe in aliens, or in haunted highways, or in government conspiracies, or in any other small-town folklore.
The new mechanics in town are uncanny, all the same.
Or, Breakdown is willfully oblivious to skinjob culture and Knock Out is all too eager to embrace it.

Bookmarker's Notes
'He’s getting better at this , said a voice of quiet conviction, and June swallowed it down.'
When the services are so good and the prices so cheap that the Devil himself could be behind the counter for all June is going to point it out.
