    Summary

    Jazz and Prowl exchange a strange look, something that makes Megatron want to strangle them because he can’t decipher what it is. He pushes back the suspicion that they’ve caught onto his situation; it would be impossible for them to know. There is nothing different about Prime’s frame or processor from when Ratchet had scanned him during his forced berth rest. They cannot know about him.

    “If you need an extended leave, don’t refrain from requesting it,” Prowl says after a small pause. “That was quite a blow to the helm you took.”

    “A measly blow to the helm won’t deter me in the slightest,” Megatron snaps before he can think better. When he does think better, he reiterates to a wide-eyed Prowl, “that is, my helm is more than capable of taking a hit.”

    Jazz laughs at that. It sounds strained.

    “Sure,” he agrees, “yeah, sure. Hey, how many digits am I holding up?”

    or; waking up in your arch nemesis' body is definitely high up on the list of Things That Will Royally Fuck Shit Up, right alongside not knowing how it happened, how to get back, and also how said arch nemesis ran their faction full of idiots through four million years of war.

    Summary

    Jazz has a few problems. Problem one, the Autobots are being poisoned. Two, figuring out who’s behind it and stopping them is proving harder than anyone expected. Three, he’s found a fix for both of those but it depends on Soundwave, the most loyal Decepticon in the whole army, helping him.

    And if there isn’t a good reason for Soundwave to cooperate with him? Well, Jazz will just have to make one.

    “An easy course and following winds,” Jazz says to the two aliens first, because the possibility of imminent violence is no excuse to violate social niceties with these guys. And then just for Soundwave, he says in English, “You know these guys are planning to screw you over, right?”

    He steps lightly into the room, moving so casually you’d never know it puts him in point blank shooting distance of a sworn enemy.

    “Hold your fire for just a sec,” he continues, baiting the hook, “and I’ll prove it.”

    Summary

    “You don’t get it,” Rumble says. “I’m telling you, that’s not what it’s about. It’s like—the whole war—it’s not even just about fighting Autobots.”

    “Well then what’s it about?” Frenzy asks.

    Summary

    Doc would never have considered himself a relatively profound friend of Ren’s. They were friends, for certain, but in the same way Doc would consider himself a friend of Joe’s or a friend of Scar’s. They interact. They spend time together. They sometimes collaborate on builds.

    And, on occasion, Doc supposes that friendship extends to pulling the man from lava and attempting to salvage what bits of him have been destroyed and mangled from a near disastrous end of a season.

    But, really, he should know the man better. He should have some sense of who Ren is, of what he needs, what he does, yet the man sat before him… He’s not certain it’s Ren at all.

    And Doc doesn’t know enough to explain why…

    --

    Also known as: Ren has DID, Doc has no clue, and they're both stuck on a ship together for two months

    Summary

    The world is divided in two halves--the human half, and the monster half. The only thing keeping the two sides from clashing is a perilous mountain range, known to the humans as the Edge of the World. A small town called the Roost overlooks the wilds from the peaks; it's known for being cold, dangerous, and full of people who don't belong anywhere else.

    Doc is one of those people. He failed, once, and now he has placed himself into exile at the furthest reaches of the human world. The Roost is in need of a new doctor--their last was presumed eaten by werewolves. However, Doc's respite from society quickly turns sour as the werewolves strike again... and a horrible illness reappears out of his past, along with someone who was once a friend.

    Summary

    “Who are you- where am I..?” the king questioned him, painful coughs interrupting his words. “Answer me! You-.. you were one of the- the resistance members. I…” he trailed off into a fit of poorly concealed coughs, trying to compose himself before continuing, “I’m supposed to be dead.”

    -----

    OR: The name Martyn Littlewood was lost to memory hundreds of years ago, leaving only the husk of a man roaming the lands and doing the bidding of mysterious glitching voices. Miles away, King Ren of Hermitopia welcomes his assassination with open arms, only to find himself alive and well far away from home with a weirdly invincible blond dude in a cabin they grow to love.
    (Nothing bad will happen. They live their best lives...)

    Summary

    “... Alright!” Impulse’s voice echoes over itself in a multi-layered choir, bouncing off half-ragged walls and burrowing in amongst the sculk. “Well, she could definitely use a bit of an updo, but… yeah! Here it is!”

    At the center of Forgery's former lair, ravenous fingers have already punched their way into stone, scrawling up the vaulted walls in strange, fungal swoops—letters without language, glyphs without meaning. Hemmed in by something akin to thick, yellow limestone, the malignant mixture in the cistern below them undulates in time with every echo—and when Gem peers into it, locks her gaze with that yearning abyss, her skin begins to crawl.

    Impulse had called it the Catalyst. Gem calls it for what it really is:

    Hungry.
