    Summary

    Upon Sam stabbing Optimus with the Matrix of Leadership, Optimus is given the opportunity to go back before the Civil war that ravaged Cybertron, before he sent the Allspark off world and before Megatron was corrupted by the Fallen.
    Before his bond with his brother broke.

    Sam is unfortunately along for the ride. The Allspark is a smug semi-sentient artifact that fuck up his life again and again and now it has decided the Sam would do very well on Cybertron... as a Cybertronian... as a sparkling.

    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

    I was thinking of a F! Reader! Insert story, where it follows the same premise of the show, and you're Jun's older sister, who is an adult. You work in your family's restaurant during the week and at Mowtown Times during the weekend.

    But the main thing is... instead of Jun wielding the Metal Breath, it's you. The fate of an alien species is resting upon your shoulders. Can you handle the pressure?

    Summary

    Hard, metallic hands padded with something like thick rubber, bigger than your entire body, swooped on you and scooped you up like a wayward kitten. You gasped more than screamed, black spots peppering your vision as you fumbled for something to hold onto. The metal under your hands was warm and had an inexplicably shiny finish, like the giant robot had a thing for detailing. A thought so inane that the one that follows it is, oh. I’m in shock.
