Summary
"And sometimes, the hardest thing to do... the thing that only the strongest can manage... is to choose peace. To be strong enough to be gentle."
When everything he fought for crumbles, he must choose: obedience, or revolution.
Optimus Prime has always believed in the ideals of justice, honor, and peace, even to those who would gladly see him dead. When Cybertron's greatest enemy is cast down before him, broken and defeated, Optimus makes a choice only he would dare to make: to show compassion to the one who deserves it least.
It is a decision that will cost him everything.
To show mercy in a world ruled by fear is to be seen not as noble, but as dangerous. To see something worthy of kindness and dignity in the one he was taught to hate is an unforgivable crime. As the walls of blind obedience close in and the fires of rebellion stir, Optimus must face a truth long buried. Sometimes, it is not hatred that makes a rebel. Sometimes, it is hope.
And the most gentle of acts, is enough to change the fate of everything you hold dear.

Summary
Defeated and dragged back to the world he called home in chains, Megatron can do no more than endure. A rescue from Cybertron itself is almost impossible; he is forced to face the possibility that the Decepticon cause is lost, and that he will end his days as an Autobot experimental subject.
Optimus's hero's welcome is shortlived. Deemed too radical and ousted from the position of Magnus on a technicality, he struggles to keep those he cares about safe from the Council's manipulations and Sentinel Prime's ambition, a struggle that will cost him more than he believed possible.
General Strika contemplates a future without her leader, and finds it bleak. If the General of Destruction is to pull the Decepticon Cause's skidplate out of the scrappile, she's going to have to do a lot of thinking outside the box.
Ratchet learns the true uses to which his research has been put, and begins to wonder if the Decepticons had the right idea. When the extents to which Optimus has been forced come to light, Ratchet makes the decision that might save them all or damn him further.

Summary
Everyone knows that the Singer is a Seeker blessed by Primus to sing songs that predict the future and guide the present.
It is too bad no one can seem to unravel his meaning.
Or so Megatronus has been told. He is starting to suspect some willful ignorance on the behalf of his fellow Councillors.
"What was his name again?" he asks, his optics pinned to the fiery ones in front.The councillor next to him shrugs, hardly paying the song any mind. "Starscream."
Or, Megatronus finds himself entangled in the mess of corruption that is Cybertron, and finds an ally in a bitterly fierce Seeker who can only speak in song.

And so there Breakdown found himself, with an injured barbarian in his arms who turned those dazzling crimson optics towards him, and for a split second Breakdown felt as if it were his knees that were injured because boy did they feel weak.
Barbarian AU where the citymech unwittingly does the kidnapping.
