Summary
Navigating personal relationships while attempting to rebuild a planet isn't for the weak.
Starscream, King of New Vos, has a very complicated relationship with Megatron, former Decepticon leader. There's no real need to continue addressing him as a superior, but old habits die hard — and Starscream is a bot of habit. Fortunately for him, Megatron isn't too keen to escape their cycle of poison, either.

Summary
“Me Grimlock crush enemies,” he rumbles, “but Starscream not worth effort.”
Starscream gawks. He doesn't know if he's more offended or relieved.
“Excuse me?”
“Pathetic. Small. Weak.” Grimlock shakes his helm dismissively, tail thudding against the dirt like a gavel. “Not challenge. Not fun.”
Starscream bristles, indignant despite the situation.
“‘Not fun’? I’ll have you know-”
“Quiet.” Grimlock growls, turning away. His tail knocks a tree over. He doesn't seem to notice. “Stay out of Grimlock’s way. Or next time, Starscream not be so lucky.”

Starscream crash lands on Dinobot Island. The only way he's going to survive long enough to get off the Primus-forsaken rock is to somehow convince an apex predator to protect him.

Summary
Stone floor, no windows, and no lock. The Decepticons' second-in-command sees the doctor. He hates her, and she hates him back.
Yet at times he's sure that being in the room, hurling insults at each other, is one of the few moments when the war and confinement don't seem like the end of everything for both of them.
Or several times when Starscream and Ratchet were the closest they had to someone who understood.

Summary
Suelo de piedra, sin ventanas ni cerradura. El segunda al mando de los Decepticons ve a la doctora. La odia, y ella lo odia a él.
Sin embargo, a veces está seguro de que estar en la habitación, lanzándose insultos, es uno de los pocos momentos en que la guerra y el confinamiento no parecen el fin de todo para ambos.
O varias veces en las que Starscream y Ratchet eran lo más cercano que tenían a alguien comprensivo.

Summary
A space bridge accident strands both Optimus Prime and Starscream on an unknown planet, filled with mechanical monsters. Once Starscream decides that immediately stabbing Optimus in the back is a bad idea, the two form an uneasy alliance. Just until they can get off this hostile world.
But cooperation breeds grudging appreciation (and even more grudging attraction). Each uncovered secret on this mystery world brings them closer to returning to endless war. Can they keep fighting as if nothing has changed? Or will they take the chance for something new?
Assuming the planet doesn’t deactivate them first.

Summary
A hundred years after the Decepticon victory at the end of the great civil war of Cybertron, Shockwave begins a new, rather indulgent scientific test.
The purpose of the Re-Forge experiment is to see if a spark taken from a purpose-built cold construct mech can be put into a new protoform and naturally form a new frame according to its innate coding, and to investigate how similar or different the resulting mech might be, physically and mentally, from its former incarnation.
The spark of the captured Autobot officer Prowl, previously stored in stasis, is an ideal candidate for this experiment, since much is already known about the mental characteristics he exhibited as a cold construct.
Reborn with the frame he was always meant to have, and with no memory or awareness of his past existence, the spark of Prowl begins a new incarnation of life as a Decepticon and chooses a name for himself, Venator.
Following an assasination, Venator is sent to track and capture the last Autobot known to still remain free, Jazz.

You can change how you look, but you can’t change who you are. by CrystalStarsAligned

Summary
Basically, during the One Shall Rise episodes, Starscream appears for some reason (probably to overthrow Megatron), and somehow ends up in Unicron’s core that Megatron and Optimus are in while it gets un-evilized by the Matrix. Now captured by the Autobots, he’s forced to work together with them to get their leader back. Starscream thinks things can’t get worse—that is, until his old memories and personality start resurfacing.

Summary
Starscream has been found in critical condition after a fight with Megatron. It will be a very long road to recovery.
How will he change under the Autobots care? How will the Autobots change with one of their worst enemies stuck in their medbay? How will the Deceptions manage without their Second in Command?
Change is inevitable. Whether positive or negative, only time will tell.

12/Sep/25 small update! I'm editing past chapters to fix my usage of "Raph" instead of Raf (sorry) and fix some terminology mistakes (fixing head to be helm and whatnot where I've made mistakes) Currently up to chapter 19
Also, I've cemented a head cannon (first mentioned in the end notes of chapter 23) that Starscream uses Cybertronian time measurements, so I've made some small edits here and there to keep things consistent! Time keys can be found on multiple chapters from before I started implementing this as a part of the story, but I've added one to chapter 3!
As this is my first fic, I have tried my best not to outright re-write things as I like seeing how far I've come :)

Summary
Starscream: Status: Responsive to positive stimuli.
Escalated praise = heightened obedience. Marked shift in tone and demeanor. Further experimentation recommended.
Physical contact [minimal] yields maximum results. Increase gradually. Observe.

Megatron finds that an unconventional hand gets better behavior out of his second-in-command. It's intriguing.
...And then he gets carried away.

Summary
During the Orion Pax event, Starscream did three things differently: He blew up the computer before running away; He almost got caught by Megatron which got his wing blasted; He didn't trust Autobots to not hold his injury against him but is still vengeful enough to provide free information about space bridge because fuck you Megatron.
Basically I messed with the timeline and put the Airachnid plot before the MECH plot. AND yes, It is another Starscream redemption arc because we need more of those.
Oh, btw, Shockwave is here, don’t ask why and how because MAD SCIENTIST HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Summary
After the war, Bumblebee had grown tired of expectations costantly forced on him, of duties that never ended, of being told who he was supposed to be.
At first, he hunted Decepticons with his team on Earth. But then the council stepped in, insisting he attend the Academy to "refine his skills", because apparently — he wasn't good enough in his job for them.
A year later, framed for a murder he didn’t commit, Bumblebee fled. Branded a fugitive, he vanished into the underground and became something else: an assassin, striking from the shadows to target the Council that betrayed him.
Eventually he got captured, the Council deemed him too dangerous for prison and sentenced him to the shadowzone.
But something went wrong.
Instead of exile, he woke up on the Nemesis—Megatron’s warship. Mid-war in the past.
Though it's just a nightmare, right?

Summary
He doesn't recall everything. They both had several rounds of high-grade. Knockout kept calling him ‘Commander’ in a way that squirmed under his casing. He complimented his finish. Starscream complimented his work. More high-grade. And then he vaguely remembers noting how the high-grade tasted better on Knockout's glossa-
Oh, Primus.

Of Flesh and Metal by BirdieBastard

Summary
“Then I must ask that you endure this, little one. I am aware that this request is selfish and there is no justification I can give for there is no argument in its favour, but please. Will you bear the weight of this burden for your kin? It is clear to me that they need you just as much as we need them.”
“It’s not a burden. Not if it’s you. Not if it’s this team. The children saw something in you worth standing by and I can see it too.” Burden felt too strong of a word. Too brutal for what was actually going to be taking place. He was a pillar of strength and comfort and heart, the glue that kept these wandering souls together. To call befriending him as something so vile felt intrinsically wrong and you weren’t going to stand for it.
If you were going to do this, you were going to do it right. No half-assing anything, fear and terror be damned. No matter what it was, you were willing to find a way to help end this conflict.

And so, Windblade had observed.

In which Skyfire and Starscream address the elephant in the room.
aka. A somewhat rewrite of "Fire in the Sky" and "The Ultimate Doom, Part 2", focusing on how I think Skyfire should've reacted to everything
