"If Optimus Prime has taught me anything at all, it is that there is a single thing in this universe more powerful than hatred, and that it is choosing not to act on it.”
In the fragile calm after the storm, three worlds begin to bleed into one.
Optimus Prime is free, but far from whole. Haunted by pain he cannot name and a bond he does not understand, he must learn to survive among former enemies aboard the Darksyde. As Megatron quietly unravels the walls he once built, both leaders begin to shape a future neither dared hope for.
Back on Cybertron, Sentinel Magnus tightens his grip. But resistance stirs beneath the veneer of control. Team Prime is scattered and hunted, but not defeated. Sari, small and stubborn, has followed her guardian into exile, carrying questions that no one knows to ask, and no one can yet answer. And somewhere beneath the metal skin of Iacon, a secret stirs, one that could shift the tide of war.
Trust must be earned. Power must be redefined. And from the ashes of rebellion, something new is being forged.

Summary
After the events of Transformers: Prime, Starscream is beaten to near-death by Predaking, leaving him completely blind. When a ground bridge suddenly opens in front of him, Starscream takes the chance at rescue and crawls through, only to find himself on the Nemesis with the remaining Autobots. Supplies are limited, and Starscream is forced to live without optics until a suitable replacement set is discovered or built from scratch. Alone, blind, without a leader to serve (or overthrow), or even a war to fight anymore, Starscream is left completely powerless for the first time, having no choice but to submit to the Autobots or take his chances on the ruins of Cybertron. Optimus Prime is dead, but the Autobots honor his spark by giving the seeker one final chance to change his ways, as they know he would have. Starscream, stripped of all of his power, is forced to face what is left, finding nothing but a husk of the mech he was before the war. Is it truly possible to change after losing so much? Or is he doomed to repeat his past mistakes?

Summary
Bumblebee has always been the spark of Team Prime: brave in battle, loyal to his friends, and a protector above all else. But when a Decepticon weapon shatters something deep inside him, Bee begins to fracture in ways no one can see. One moment he’s the soldier Optimus trained, the next he’s reckless, distant, or frighteningly cold.
When sabotage strikes the Autobots, all evidence points to Bumblebee. Branded a traitor and hunted by both friend and foe, Bee has no choice but to run. With only Rafael by his side, he must fight to hold himself together while the echoes of his spark threaten to tear him apart.
As the chase closes in and the fractures grow stronger, Bee faces the hardest battle of all: proving to the Autobots and to himself that he’s more than the sum of his broken pieces.

Summary
Starscream had been found with extensive damages to his frame in a pool of energon with a barely functioning spark. One of his wings had been ripped off and found several meters away and his throat had been torn open, exposing energon lines. The vocalizer had been badly damaged. The rest of his frame hadn't fared much better. His left optic and cockpit had been shattered and his right arm nearly torn from its socket. Not to mention the cuts all across his frame and his broken thrusters in his pedes. He had taken one hell of a beating.

Summary
In a war-torn Cybertron, neutral territory offers a fleeting escape—a place where masks, hoods, and voice modifiers blur faction lines, and desires are indulged without consequence. Convinced by Skywarp and Thundercracker to join in the revelry, Starscream surrenders to a night of anonymity. But when a sparkling forms within his chassis, the truth of his mysterious partner is revealed—and so is the sire. Megatron, discovering both the secret and the sparkling, claims them as his own, leaving Starscream trapped under his control. With his child’s life hanging in the balance, Starscream must navigate captivity, betrayal, and a future shrouded in uncertainty.

Summary
“Easy there,” a voice soothed as Sam gasped for breath. “Deep breaths in and out. You’re alright, sweet spark. You’re alright now.”
***
Earth barely managed to avoid its own annihilation thanks to the last second assistance of new alien visitors. Slowly, civilizations that had been nearly destroyed through nuclear warfare, famine, and disease are rebuilt with the Autobots' help.
But the Autobots' assistance isn't entirely altruistic. Earth has something they want. Because mixed with the millions of others are humans with spark signatures and the potential to become sparklings. And the Autobots who had believed they were doomed to a slow extinction, have no intention of letting their new little ones go.

Summary
An AU in which the Autobots rescue Orion Pax, discover he was not as shy as they thought he was and many secrets are dug back up. Mostly fluff, though there's some innuendo puns (and maybe smut), a little angst and some descriptions of blood / gore and Cybertronian inner workings.
Enjoy!

"A name that echoes through the ruins of Cybertron. A forgotten power, a fate sealed by war. Solatra, the last heir of the Royals, vanished without a trace. To the Autobots, a mystery; to the Decepticons, an obsession. But to her… an unsolved enigma. Lost in an unfamiliar world, with a face she does not recognize and an enemy who will never let her go, the past is about to catch up to her. And with it, a truth that could change everything."

Summary
A person named Starscream should've been created on the planet of Cybertron. And he was, as far as history was concerned. He was - twice. What an oddity...
He was supposed to live long, be a general, a coward, a survivor, a different person altogether. But he was dead before he even had the chance to live. The second one, he was never supposed to be Starscream. He was never supposed to have a name, to be created. Alas, Fate had different plans for them.
One to die and one to live, where it should've been the other way around.
((TFP but Starscream is young and loyal to Megatron and the cause.))
