Safety Net by megatronfucks (metaphor_enjoyer)
Fandoms: The Transformers (IDW Generation One), Transformers - All Media Types
21 Sep 2025
Tags
Summary
Sometimes, when you've wanted something you can't have for a couple million years, having it in reach makes things harder. Sometimes you've been fighting the urge for so long you can't remember how not to to fight it. Sometimes it takes a little help from someone who has more practice giving you what you need.
(It's like if your best friend and your crush's best friend set you up on a date because you were too awkward to do it yourself, and then had to come provide moral support on the date. Except with BDSM.
I have provided a chart of the relationships, in case the situation sounds confusing or you want to see a really good chart. It contains a certain amount of spoilers for chapter three, but only in terms of detailing the relationship dynamics for the remainder of the fic.)

peace is a dead rat by megatronfucks (metaphor_enjoyer)
Fandoms: The Transformers (IDW Generation One)
25 May 2025
Tags
Summary
The war is over, the treaties are signed, the Galactic Council is pacified. Megatron sits on a balcony and broods. Optimus is completely fine actually, his new job is great, and anyway, it's Megatron who needs help. Soundwave refuses to help. Starscream and Bumblebee are co-consuls. Rumble and Frenzy are in prison. Ultra Magnus is doing his best. Above them all in Cybertron's slowly healing atmosphere, clouds form and break.
A story about fighting for peace, about giving up everything you have for love, and then having to live with it. About being a soldier when there’s no war left to fight.
Peace, in the end, did not involve the total subjugation of the galaxy to Megatron's iron will. He did not tear down the galactic council to lay its ruins at Optimus' feet as his act of profferance. He did not end all war or rid the world of falsehood. He did not establish a tyranny so complete that no one remained to call it tyranny.
Peace, in the end, did not involve him much at all.

hatesloveshates the things Megatron says while he does so. Megatron can't stop himself fragging Starscream's lights out, no matter how much hehatesloveshates the things Starscream says at the time.
Jealousy? Fury? Humiliation? Violence? The best aphrodisiacs in the galaxy. Not that either of them would admit to it. -
and yet no regret by megatronfucks (metaphor_enjoyer)
Fandoms: Transformers - All Media Types

Summary
An ill-conceived murder attempt. A beating. An argument. A snapshot of a moment which might seem like a hundred moments that have gone before it, once memory has its way.

How It Is With Seekers by megatronfucks (metaphor_enjoyer)
Fandoms: Transformers - All Media Types
10 Aug 2024
Tags
Summary
Megatron rather enjoys interfacing with Starscream, and he would gladly (albeit only to himself) sing the praises of any part of Starscream's interfacing technique and/or anatomy. With one dubious, spiky exception.
Starscream would tell you that's just how it is with seekers.

the caress and the claw by megatronfucks (metaphor_enjoyer)
Fandoms: Transformers - All Media Types, The Transformers (IDW Generation One)
23 Dec 2023
Tags
Summary
Optimus and Megatron are something new now. They can see the world as Primus saw it. They only want to share that gift. But people can be so slow to see the bigger picture, and even the absolute peace of Primus has its cost.

Best At Sex Award by megatronfucks (metaphor_enjoyer)
Fandoms: The Transformers (IDW Generation One)
13 Oct 2023
Tags
Summary
Optimus and Megatron have been bonded for a little while now, and they have spent most of that time fragging each other stupid. It's really good. Really, really good. Megatron makes sure of that. Even when Optimus wishes he'd just lay back for once and enjoy the ride.
This was meant to be a 5+1 fic but it’s nigh impossible to describe in the space of a title. There are four sex scenes, one trip to the hospital for non-sex-related reasons, and one hard conversation.

everything's made to be broken by megatronfucks (metaphor_enjoyer)
Fandoms: The Transformers (IDW Generation One)
23 Sep 2023
Tags
Summary
There are a lot of things Optimus has forgotten since he was found half-dead in the wasteland. Most of his life, for one. His friends. The war he's fighting. Whatever it is that gives him the strength to get up every day and keep fighting it. But the more of his life he starts to relearn, the more sure he is that there's something else missing. Why won't anyone tell him what it is?
Megatron. His friends had mentioned that name by now, or recorded it in the files they gave him, but it came to him then from older memories. The part of his brain that knew his enemy flickered back to life, casting everything into a fresh light.
He didn't need to hear the feed to know what Megatron was saying. He didn't need Megatron to say it at all. He could hear it in his own spark. Get out there and stop him.

Summary
Optimus has perfectly normal feelings about medical exams. Totally unremarkable. So what if it's been three million years since he had a complete examination? He doesn't have anything to hide, he's just busy. And no one likes having their interface array examined. No one.
I'm going to have kinks there aren't even words for, Optimus thought vaguely. He was going to spend the rest of existence longing for someone to frag him in reverse, working their way from the ends of his valve to the start, not stretching but pressing, sensors firing in ways that nothing else would ever replicate. It was hard to be worried about that when it felt so good.

Hard Love by megatronfucks (metaphor_enjoyer)
Fandoms: Transformers: Prime, Transformers - All Media Types
18 Mar 2023
Tags
Summary
"I was thinking how long it's been since we did a full denial scene." It would figure that Optimus finally managed to sound nonchalant at the exact moment he made Megatron's primary processor stall. "It occurred to me that you deserve something more... protracted."
It's approximately ten days of kink, smut, domesticity and bickering. What more can I say?

Summary
In this fic, Optimus wonders if bonding has done permanent damage to the pleasure centre of his brain. Megatron would probably say the same thing, because edging someone else isn't usually this hard.
But it is worth it.Series

A fic where Optimus finds out exactly what Megatron wants, and gives it to him.

Long after the events of all that is here, three enemies reflect on the past and what comes after it.

The Slope by megatronfucks (metaphor_enjoyer)
Fandoms: The Transformers (IDW Generation One)
07 Oct 2022
Tags
Summary
Pharma is on Messatine, feeling lonely and abandoned, when Tarn arrives in the dead of night with an offer he can't refuse. With Tarn's threats hanging over his head, Pharma tries to take matters into his own hands. Years later, the war is over and Ratchet is on Cybertron, trying to get their first new hospital up and running. Pharma agrees to be the head of surgery but Ratchet sees little of the mech he remembers. The new Pharma is paranoid, unpredictable, and definitely hiding something.
Or, in the words of my beta reader: Pharma deals with Tarn in the past and Ratchet deals with Pharma in the present.
This fic is only loosely connected to Lesser Evil and was written essentially as a stand-alone.
Gorgeous illustrations by smushles (ch1) and glasspunk (ch5).

Summary
T. Kingfisher / Ursula Vernon wrote a comic about the apocalypse (https://twitter.com/UrsulaV/status/1568685612168892423)
One of my friends commented on it asking "Where the rural survivors would be in this scenario?"
This is my attempt to answer that question. -
Theory/Practice by megatronfucks (metaphor_enjoyer)
Fandoms: The Transformers (IDW Generation One)
22 Aug 2022
Tags
Summary
Megatron and Ultra Magnus have been spending time together outside of work. They would like to broaden the range of activities they do together outside of work. But, as Rung would note, neither of them are particularly confident in navigating the vagaries of a non-professional relationship.
(This is not the most neurotypical thing I've ever written.)

Starscream and Megatron both know Starscream's apology is faked, but that doesn't stop them from going through the same routine.
