Summary
The war is over, and the oath between Megatron and Optimus Prime as the leaders of Cybertron's revitalization is promised. Of course, fixing Cybertron was not going to be easy, not when the war still haunts the sparks of others. It isn't much easier either for Optimus when Megatron is so adamant about who he is: a protector, a guardian, and a sinner, but not a lover. It was just as easy to reject Optimus' love like it had been during the war.
Whatever kind of hope Optimus held in his spark navigating through this estranged relationship would dwindle in time, surely, especially since Optimus was obligated to join some sort of anonymous Pen-Pal program and met another bot writing to him, sparking a blossoming relationship that potentially could help Optimus re-define his life without Megatron in it.
But, that mech was none other than Megatron himself. The lie he believed in himself extended into this ideal version he'd conjured. Megatron believed that the best way to find his place in Optimus' spark was if he pretended to be someone he knew Optimus would rather want instead, because of course, why would Optimus ever want a mech who spent hating him longer than loving him?
