    Summary

    Optimus has watched Starscream, decepticon air commander and loyal (ish) second to the ruthless Megatron, die, approximately twenty times.

    It's disturbing.

    He doesn't like Starscream. Nobody likes Starscream. But Optimus doesn't enjoy seeing anyone pass away; it's the thing that constantly makes him hesitate to continue the war. If he were fighting for a lesser cause, he would have surrendered to end it and, in the process, end the continuous loss of life the fight cost.

    -

    Or, the one where Optimus gets stuck in a time loop that resets every time Starscream dies. A mech who remembers every time he's failed to save someone, and a seeker who is not only doomed to die, but is utterly insufferable.

    What could possibly go wrong?

    Summary

    Starscream’s optics flick up, sharp and piercing, scanning the room for the first time.

    They land on Jazz.

    Jazz keeps his posture rigid, blank, obedient. He’s been under Optimus Prime’s gaze, under Prowl's, under far more respectable mechs than Starscream; he knows how to hold steady under scrutiny.

    Starscream’s stare is… Different.

    Calculating. Predatory. Uncomfortably sharp, like a dagger pressed under his chin.

    “You.” Starscream says, pointing with the mug. “New.”

    Jazz snaps a salute a half-klik faster than regulation.

    “Yes, sir. Adagio, sir.”

    “I didn’t ask.” Starscream sneers.

    -

    Jazz goes undercover in the decepticon ranks. He learns more about Starscream and Megatron than he'd intended.

    Summary

    Cybertron is starving. The war has hollowed it out, leaving only hunger and silence between the screams. Deep beneath the planet’s surface, something stirs with the promises of salvation—something that should never have been made, never have been touched.

    The lab was never supposed to exist, but then again neither was what crawled out of it.

     

    Anyways a Transformers zombie apocalypse au fic!!

    Summary

    There was no way home.
    He was trapped in a mimicry of the universe he'd known.
    Orion was gone.
    Everything was gone.
    ...He refused to allow this to defeat him. He was Lord Megatron, Supreme Commander of Cybertron and High Lord Protector. He would not be defeated by something as pathetic as loneliness...
    He also wasn't going to adopt the first prime he met. Because he has self-control.

    Summary

    Sunk Cost FallacyNoun

    An ingrained failsafe coding instance whereby a mech is reluctant to abandon a strategy or course of action because they have invested heavily in it - even when it becomes clear that abandonment would be more beneficial.
    ___

    Exhausted, depressed and shell-shocked, Skyfire finds himself struggling to adjust to the end of the war he had no choice but to take part in.

    Unfortunately, his fractured sparkbond doesn’t seem to be helping, especially when the culprit - and his two trinemates - reappear back into his life.
