Summary
"Pray," they say, "Pray to these walls."
The sick violet light of a fusion cannon in his faceplates, tons and tons of rock above and below and all around, there really is nothing left, is there?
Starscream has struggled and fought and prayed and wished upon every star in the night sky, but here, in this wretched cavern, his only company is his thoughts, his lies, and truths that won't stay buried.
Oh, and the annoying Autobot currently threatening him.
Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to Rock Bottom, where there's nowhere left to go but down.
**[Chapter 1 now rewritten. Rewrite of other chapters in progress]**

After a mission he was told not to embark on goes wrong, Starscream is left to face devastating consequences. Meanwhile, the Autobots notice a lack of the Decepticon's SIC on the battlefield.

Summary
Split from his brothers at birth, Star has walked a lonesome path in his young life until one day he stumbles across a group of unique Cybertronians with the ability to fly. Fascinated by these people and their culture, Star urges his Tarn-raised Mentor, Cryak, to see if he can learn anymore about his ancestors. While Tarn and Vos are on the brink of war, Star begins to recieve horrible nightmares and visions which cannot be explained. One day, he is rescued from Tarn by the very Seeker Overlords he was taught to fear. Only after he's been brought into their world does Star begin to realise just who he really is and the bond he's missed out on. Growing up alongside noble warriors, Star chooses a name for himself and grows to confide in brothers and sisters alike. All seems well until the day he meets a Tarnbot by the name "Megatron". From there, Cybertron is slowly thrust into a war and as sides are chosen, Starscream begins to lose everything he's worked so hard to have; including his family.
Now overcome with hatred and destined for a life of revenge, Starscream is faced with no other choice but the one Megatron offers him; join the Decepticons or die.

Summary
Starscream looked himself over. Not majorly damaged, though the shot to his wing still ached. Just roughed up and dirty with this planets organic matter.
Primus, he needed a solvent bath and a buffer.“What are you fools staring at!” His wings hitched up as he looked between both faction leaders.

I Live Deliberately (I'm A Quitter) by Hoard_of_hyperfixations
Fandoms: Transformers - All Media Types

Summary
Prime moves swiftly, with purpose—lifting, shifting, tossing debris aside as though it weighs nothing. His steps are careful but unrelenting, the ground shaking just slightly under each one. The tremor of the rubble vibrates through Starscream and it feels like knives being jabbed into his wires.
Of course Optimus Prime would show up. Of course he'd come for one of his own.
He can't even delegate this to someone else. Optimus Prime is too noble, too compassionate, too honorable to not put his own life on the line for his underlings.
Megatron would laugh at the very notion.

Starscream is left to rust after a failed decepticon mission. Optimus Prime does not let him die.

Summary
Energon Level: 7.4%
It would be any time now.
Starscream, lying on the floor while leaning against the corner of the room, thought to himself as he watches his Energon levels slowly plummet, promising him an agonizingly slow death, that also seemed too soon to be true.Before, when he had just gotten banished, It had been years of scavenging, months of despairing, weeks of starving, and now...
Now he only had mere hours. Not that he could care. He stopped caring a week ago, maybe even a month ago. But he used to care. He did, just not anymore.
Starscream gives up and slowly reaches his demise... Until Megatron rips him off from the clutches of death. Starscream, of course, has a problem with that.

Patience Is The Key (But We Already Broke The Door) by cactuswitharaygun

Summary
Starscream might be sparked and on medical leave (or whatever they are calling it now that the war is over, he guesses) but he is definitely able to deal with a simple recognition mission on a useless little desert planet. Even if he has to tolerate the Protectobots coming along, at least those five are not on the list of most annoying Autobots. What's the worst that could happen?
When First Aid complained to Ratchet that he wanted more medical experience with no supervision, he did not mean “dealing with the first sparkling emergence in millions of vorns while stuck on an abandoned base in the middle of a magnetic storm”.
Also, Blades should have shut up five sentences ago.

Summary
Starscream somehow 'awakens' from a very strange state of unconsciousness that makes him feel self-conscious and nostalgic in ways he never stopped to think about before, but that's not what worries him.
He is worried that she sees him the way she is doing now, distrust, betrayal and frustration dancing a dangerous tango on her optics.
He didn't know what he had done, it had only been a week since he had talked to her, what could he have done in such a short time for her to look at him like all the other mechs who had had the misfortune of crossing paths with him?
Or maybe more time had passed than his processor led him to believe, but he couldn't remember anything at all, nothing after... After... After what?

“Like, you had so much going for you!” Starscream threw his hands in the air. “You’re smart. You’re hot. You’re one person away from Lana Del Rey! But noooo. You HAD to get knocked up in a Wendy’s parking lot or whatever.”
Soundwave didn’t even blink. “Wasn’t Wendy’s.”
“Oh my fuckin’ god.”
“McDonald’s?”
“Burger King.”
Starscream slapped both hands over his mouth in horror. “NO.”

Summary
Starscream’s final moments were supposed to be his end. Having given everything in his last stand against Unicron, he had made peace with his legacy as things stood. But after his death, something impossible happens. Trapped in the timeless void of Infraspace, Starscream’s fractured memories and self-realizations linger, until a strange force tears him from his fate and sends him to a Cybertron he never thought he’d see again. A Cybertron untouched by war. A Cybertron before Megatron's revolution, before the Decepticons, before everything.
In the face of this unexpected second chance, Starscream finds himself confronted not only by a past he never thought he'd experience again, but also by the mech who had defined his every move.
Megatron.
But this time, Megatron is nothing like the tyrant he once knew. This time, the world is truly his to rule. This time, maybe he IS destined to be the Chosen One, after all.

Summary
In the ashes of a forgotten Cybertronian facility, the Decepticons stumble upon a remnant of Cybertron’s most horrifying sins—a still-functioning factory that once stole CNA to mass-produce sparklings bred for slavery. Among the flickering stasis pods, one malformed, struggling sparkling catches Megatron’s attention—not as a future soldier, but as something achingly familiar. When told the sparkling won’t survive without a stronger spark, Megatron offers a fragment of his own, fully aware that this act will make him the sparkling’s sire.
What begins as a moment of weakness becomes something far more complicated. As the war rages on, Megatron is forced to confront not just his past, but his capacity for mercy. And for the first time, the Warlord of the Decepticons finds himself raising a son he never expected to have—far away from the battlefield, in the shadow of all that’s been lost.

Summary
⚠️Previously titled, “Echoes of a Spark”⚠️
In which Starscream gets into trouble (as per usual) and is turned into a sparkling as a result, with things only getting progressively worse from there.
OR:
When Starscream gets caught in the middle of a malfunctioning Ground Bridge and is turned into a sparkling, instead of Autobots or Decepticons finding him, MECH does, and things sure do happen!
(I’ve been thinking about this fic for a good while now, and I honestly didn’t really like how it was going so I’m just rewriting it entirely. Especially because I have a lot of new ideas for it and a better overall plan for how it’s going to go, so I hope you enjoy! Constructive Criticism is open and very welcome!!!)

Summary
During a patrol through the wreckage of Cybertron's forgotten outskirts, the Autobots discover an ancient, blind mech living quietly among the ruins. Though he lacks optics, he sees more clearly than any of them—perceiving auras, the true essence of sparks and intentions. The war-weary mech is content to keep his insights to himself, until one fateful encounter changes everything.
When the Decepticons attack, the blind bot is protected by his new Autobot allies—but among the enemies, he sees a beacon that shouldn't exist:Starscream. The Seeker offers a silent smile and a gesture for secrecy—and the old mech is shaken.
Because Starscream’s aura does not match his name, nor his reputation.
And now, the one who sees all must decide what to do with a truth no one would believe.
