  Summary

  A story from before the Demon King's defeat, the many stories from the journey and even before the journey began.
  A demon with little to no mana, scorned and dismissed by his own kind. An elf that's full of hatred and longs for revenge against the Demon king. A dwarven warrior full of shame from running away. A priest that had no friends and relied on alcohol to drown his sorrows.
  A stroke of luck that'll set the world moving in a different direction.
  This is the story of how a demon taught himself to feel and how the most unlikely group of people went on a long, epic adventure and eventually saved the world.

  Summary

  Inspired by Keferon's 'Mecha pilot Jazz AU' and all the additional fanart and fics that popped up. These are short snippets of things that happened on Earth pre-canon and during canon events of the au, featuring a cast of different characters. For more info, check the au on tumblr.
  Basically a lot of content has appeared on this AU and I am loving every second of it! I couldn't help myself but write this short story here and a few more ideas in the future. I don't usually write Transformers but I want to put my idea into words. Some chapters and characters will be connected but it will mostly be different ideas bundled together without that much overarching plot or a consistent timeline. Almost every chapter could be read as a stand-alone.

  (I lied, to you and myself. There is some plot now in some chapters. I put way too much connection and references to not be connected. I still plan to write different ideas and alternative scenarios, but yeah, the plot bunnies are spreading.)

  Summary

  Inspired by @keferon's TF Monster Hunter AU on Tumblr!

  Brainstorm and Quarks were living happily in Iacon, working together at the research center, living together and being happy, but that happiness is shattered when Quark is diagnosed with an incurable spark disease. Brainstorm was not going to let his conjux just die like that, so after a long research on the subject and teaching himself medicine, he found the key to solving his problem.
  A mech called Perceptor had once researched spark disease and written a lot of ways to treat it, in fact, all modern treatments were invented based on Perceptor's notes, but there's the problem - Peceptor had died a LONG time ago without finding a cure and that was it. Brainstorm needed a miracle to save Quark when he got a crazy idea - what if he traveled back in time and saved Perceptor so he could complete his research?
  Well, he did it but now he's stuck in the past.

  Summary

  Inspired by Keferon's Apocalyptic Ponyo AU on Tumblr. You can see more context for this story there.

  Blaster had not expected the literal apocalypse come to his (figurative) doorstep, but here he was. In just one week he went from a temporarily suspended aquarium employee to a survivor surviving the flooded city full of dangers and mutant creatures that want to eat him. Now, he not only has to go back to the aquarium to see what could have happened to Jazz and Prowl during the tsunami, but also deal with the aftereffects of his decision.
  Would he be able to survive the apocalypse and the mutant sea creatures? Would he be able to find Jazz and Prowl? Would he be able to go back home?
