    Summary

    A leader misses a moment that matters—and doesn’t realize the cost until silence almost takes something irreplaceable.

    An injured scout learns, painfully, how deeply he’s learned to make himself small. Help arrives late, then louder than intended, and the attention meant to protect only sharpens old fears of being a burden.

    What follows isn’t instant healing, but a slow, deliberate unlearning: of minimizing pain, of confusing usefulness with worth, of thinking care must be earned. Words are finally spoken without excuses. Promises are tested in quiet moments, not emergencies.

    In the end, nothing is perfect—but something essential changes.
    A call is answered.
    Someone stays.
    And trust, once broken by silence, begins to grow in its place.

    Summary

    It turns out that being wired into giant war machines doesn’t play nice with human brains. The Earth Mechanical Defense Force, or EMDF, learned that the hard way when their pilots started going… neurotic, let’s say, after a few missions.

    The obvious solution to that problem was to simply wire the pilot into their mecha permanently, that way their mind wasn’t being strained by the constant in and out. Unfortunately that strategy backfired and the pilots started going neurotic much, much faster, and this time they were giant and made of metal and much harder to put down.

    So, the obvious next step would be to pull the plug on that idea and go back to the drawing board, right? No, that’s ridiculous, the next step was obviously to simply…

    Make the mecha forget they’d ever been human in the first place.

    Somewhere along the line someone should have pulled the plug, but they’d already invested so much into the project, and you know what they say about sunk cost fallacy.

    Summary

    A new interest check is sent out to the mines to see if any cogless bots want to adopt the new cogless sparklings from the well. Orion is super excited to get one, but finds out you have to be a high-ranked miner to get one. Well its a good thing he knows a high-ranked miner personally.

    AKA

    Sam reincarnates into a sparkling and gets raised by a Decepticon-turned-neutral. It goes as well as one would expect.

    Summary

    The Autobots failed, Megatron was able to gain possession of the Allspark and planned to use it's powers to Cyberform the entire earth. The Allspark however had other plans, reviving Jazz and a human ally of the Autobot's it sends the two back in time to Cybertron's golden age, right before war broke out. The two are tasked with stopping Cybertron from being destroyed by war, no pressure though!

    For our little human she got the short end of the stick- literally, for some reason she is stuck as a little Sparkling presumably until her and Jazz fix the future. Well, surely that won't cause any problems, right?

    inspired by "Optimus and Terrenus Prime" by Litheaner
    and "Behavioural Patterns of Birds (and Seekers)" by Nekomiko and Wandering_Leprechaun
    go give both a shot after this!
