    Summary

    Megatron growls. "Say that again." He threatens lowly.

    "I don't believe you," Optimus repeats. Louder this time. "You're not too far gone, Megatron. You're not. You could've brought the entirety of the high guard with you. You could have trapped me. You could have hurt me."

    "I still can."

    "Then do it." Optimus says calmly. "Look me in my optics and tell me you don't care about me anymore. Tell me the way I feel for you doesn't mean jack shit to you. Tell me you don't feel the same. You want to hurt me? Do it then. Stomp out my spark under your pede and tell me to go."

    Megatron freezes, staring at Optimus. He doesn't know what to say. He was just told what to say. He can't- he-

    THE HAPPY ENDING I PROMISED!

    Summary

    Pax was smiling. In all of these- all of the pages and pages of D-16’s art- his smile, his bright blue optics, reigned over every piece. Staring, watching, smiling at Megatron. He raised a servo to cover his mouth, as the lights of his own red optics dimmed in agony. In grief.

    A long time ago, D-16 had figured that, when Orion Pax died, he'd die by D-16's side, and he'd die smiling at him.

    Now, Megatron knew such dreams had always been foolish.

    Summary

    Reaching up, D-16 knocks his knuckles across Orion’s helm. Gently, of course. The stupid bot was damaged enough.

    “Go to sleep, Pax.”

    “But you have to listen to this! There’s this whole section–”

    D-16 sighs. Goes to lean against a slab that wasn’t his own. His spark spins, painful. Daresay calls it something like fond.

    or; before Megatron learned to hate, he learned to love, and it hurt more than any hate ever could.

    Summary

    After the war, Megatron and a crew of sailors depart and explore the vast sea of Cybertron, seeking refuge from a war-torn society and a sense of peace.
    He finds a bit more than just salt water on the ocean...

    It's MerMay. AP tests are over. I'm bored as fuck. I like Megarod. That's it.

    “I know what it means,” Megatron snarled, annoyed. “I can’t be sparked, cogless bots can’t-“

    He cut himself off. Because he wasn’t cogless.

    Summary

    Optimus Prime, was having a bad day. Actually, to call it a bad day might just be an understatement. But it hadn't started well and had only gotten worse.

    After lashing out at Sentinel and fleeing custody, Optimus finds himself in the only place that could be worse for him, the hands of the Decepticons.

    Megatron sees a golden opportunity to get something valuable on his side, to drag the oh no noble and selfless Optimus Prime down to his side. And he's not going to let this opportunity slip away.
    ------
    I saw this animatic and I really, really wanted to read a fic about TFA Optimus being swayed to the Decepticon side. The very particular story I wanted didn't exist so I wrote it myself.

    Summary

    “Sorry,” the former Prime mutters, and Megatron’s thoughts promptly lag. He meets Megatron’s optics with all four of his before quickly turning away and wiping his unexpectedly pretty mouth. He fiddles with the string of his trap, catching it on one of the dentae like needles on his jaw hinges, and cuts it. “This wasn’t meant for you. I was trying to catch something to eat.”
    “… I don’t like eating mechanisms,” he feels the need to clarify when Megatron remains silent.

    Megatron comes across the Prime the Autobots mean to forget, and quickly finds out why.

    Summary

    So, he clicks it. The Orion Pax in him is still making horrible decisions, Optimus guesses, because when he hears a sleepy groan and a “who the frag is this” on the other line, he realizes he’s made a horrible mistake.

    Optimus Prime accidentally calls Megatron in the middle of the night, two and a half weeks after their fight. They end up talking a lot more than they'd expected.

    Summary

    Bruce realizes just a moment too late.

    Something is very wrong.

    Somewhere above him a machine hums to life, and then all of a sudden the room fills with a bright golden light. Bruce’s eyes adjust, and the full horror of what is happening hits him. The discs overhead aren’t filtering the light, they’re concentrating it, aiming it directly to where Clark is lying on the exam chair. Bruce’s stomach drops as Clark screams, writhing on the chair as the automatons pin him down.

    Like a bug being cooked under a magnifying glass.

    Summary

    His digits squeeze instead, tips digging into the crevices of his armor, and he spits, “Because I don’t have anything left to lose. You took it all.”

    “Is that so?” Sentinel frowns, before a brow of his optic’s raises and his voice turns soft, sweeter than brightest energon, “So you wouldn’t mind if I found your rustbucket friend and executed him instead?”

    Summary

    “You know, this is kind of poetic,” Prime breaks the silence. “Built for the mines, died underground, miserable throughout. You have to admit, it’d make a pretty tragic story.”

    You are a tragic story, Megatron doesn’t say.

    Summary

    There’s an age-old debate about whether a mech’s spark can corrode. Turn the from the light of Primus. Poison their thoughts- their actions against their fellow Cybertronians.

    D-16 had never believed it. Not until the day when his world had come crashing down around him in that cave.
    -----------
    “We could have built the future together, D.”

    He’s so tired, suddenly, frame aching from it all. And now there’s this- this new Prime standing here and it’s all wrong. Except, he can still see Orion Pax in there, with his righteous demeanor and those blue optics as familiar to him as his own. They’re full of sorrow, his mouth a twist of pain.

    And somehow that’s what makes him turn away, resetting his vocalizer. “It’s too late for that.”

    He’s hollow. He’s so full of this awful, septic anger and he has nowhere to put it.

    “No, it’s not-” Pax reaches out a servo, almost hesitant. He looks like he’s actually listening for once, and there’s a touch of desperation there. Hope. D-16 huffs a small, brittle laugh. Pax always could hope.

    Summary

    It's cold on the surface. Bit of a weird thought to have, honestly, considering everything else he could be thinking about and gawking at tonight, but it is cold. Maybe it's just that he's spent too much standing directly next to a furnace. Maybe that's just how the sky is.

    Bee isn't saying any of this out loud consciously, but his new pink friend—companion, Elita, shoots him a sideways glare that means he probably said it anyway.

    or: b-127 and elita one attempt to have an interesting conversation while both being emotionally constipated as fuck.

    Summary

    The poem speaks and cries with him in a way he cannot with anyone else- not anymore. The only mech he would have been that vulnerable with, he cast away himself by uttering five simple words. Words which his people would enforce as though they were spoken by Primus himself.

    Orion never wanted to be a God.

    And though Optimus will not, cannot complain, that doesn’t stop him from wanting to scream.

     

    Or, Post-Transformers One, Optimus turns to the works of a new poet to help process his grief
