Sixteen Tons (Of Energon Ore) by Trinary

Summary
Something a little different than usual: the opening lines of Sixteen Tons (but about Megatron) popped into my head and would not leave me in peace until I finished the song. Enjoy?
Some people say a spark blooms out of the ore
But I was made on the factory floor
For labor and smelter and pit and mine
Live and die by the assembly line -

The Way to a Mech's Spark (Is Through His Fuel Tank) by Trinary
Fandoms: Transformers - All Media Types, Transformers Generation One
02 May 2020
Tags
Summary
Starscream and Skyfire set off on their first Academy mission, and Starscream doesn’t consider the logistics of fuel until much, much too late. Skyfire isn’t keeping it in cubes—it’s in his auxiliary tanks, and there’s only one way to get it out. Starscream’s plating heats just thinking of it. He knows he can’t ask without embarrassing himself.
He can make the whole trip without refueling, right?

Summary
Wheeljack accidentally doses himself with homemade interfacing nanites. Fortunately, Starscream is on hand to keep his spark from burning out. When it turns out the nanites are so much more than charge enhancers, Starscream can’t help but take advantage… Which is exactly why Wheeljack came to him in the first place.

Summary
Post-Unicron, Thundercracker heads to New Cybertron to schmooze with the rich and famous. Movies need funding, after all. What he expects are boring parties and a lot of paperwork. What he finds is an impossible version of his dead trinemate, kept like a prize in a towers estate. They need to get off-planet as quickly as possible, but with the enforcers hot on their trail, the only one who can help is a certain Megatron-obsessed empuratee… And Damus of Tarn has his own plans.

Summary
Thundercracker pounds on Acid Storm’s door. Even when he strains to hear, there’s no response. “Acid Storm! Are you in there?”
Something clatters faintly inside, followed by a softer sound that might be a curse. Thundercracker thumps harder with the side of his fist and the door rattles in its frame, old bearings and older metal. Their ship was made relatively recently in the war’s history, which is to say it’s a rickety rustbucket held together with glue and hope, and should’ve been put out of its misery long ago.
“Hurry up, already,” Thundercracker says, loud enough to carry, “Slipstream’s gonna make us scrub the engine filters if we’re late for patrol.”
There’s another clatter. This time, the curse is louder. Acid Storm’s voice comes muffled through the door. “I’m putting my face on!”
“Frag it, not again!”

Summary
Skyfire’s been pining over his lab partner for too long. He could swear Starscream has a thing for him, too, but when they finally get together, it doesn’t go like he expects.
Skyfire’s always been told the cold constructed were missing something. He just didn’t think it was this.

'Til the Morning Comes Around by Trinary

Summary
When the Decepticon Justice Division discovers Air Commander Starscream half-wrecked and floating in space, Tarn has no choice but to take him in. He isn’t on the list; they can’t rip him apart as his traitorous frame deserves. That doesn’t stop Tarn from coveting Starscream for his collection. He is, after all, an extremely important artifact in the history of the Decepticon cause.
They’ll have to argue about poetry instead.

Summary
Cody speeds up, turns the corner, and blinks. There’s a girl hanging off Whirl. She looks about twelve, with a romper, green pigtails, and band-aids on her knees. Her legs kick in the air where she dangles from Whirl’s hand. She spots Cody and freezes. Her one eye is vibrant, unnatural yellow. There’s an autobot symbol on the romper, with the missing eye crossed out. She has big, clunky army boots, freckles, and two machine guns strapped to her back.
“Uh,” Cody says.
“You didn’t see nothin’,” the girl hisses.
Whirl says, “he won’t tell anyone. Will you, Cody?”
Cody has no idea what there is to tell, or who he’d tell it to. “No?”
“Good.” Whirl lowers her hand until the girl’s boots hit the ground. The girl dusts herself off and gives Cody a terrifying gap-toothed grin. Whirl offers her own tentative smile. “Have you met my dad?”

“TC,” Skywarp says, “I’m, like, ninety percent sure that humans don’t have interface cables.”
Thundercracker squawks and almost knocks him over trying to get the script out of his hands.
