Summary
Rodimus could not be happier for them. Really. Truly.
He always feels so warm spending time with them, so full of affection, but as the evening creeps along and Minimus calls the end of the night the warmth starts dissipating from his frame, and as he exits Megatron and Minimus's hab and heads to his own, waving goodbye to Drift and Ratchet as they retreat to theirs, there is nothing left but the cold something that always makes its appearance in his spark and the feeling that it'll never quite be enough. -

If he didn't have to deal with Spec Ops and their... interesting way of doing things, Prowl would have a lot less paperwork.
Bumblebee and Hound go on a Human Outreach trip. They're not very successful. It's probably Jazz's fault.Series

Summary
Hunter took a deep, shuddering breath. “I…” He sniffed, bringing up his arm to wipe his face. “I don’t know what to do. I thought it was okay, I thought I had got used to her not being here but… it’s all I can think about. She's all I can think about.
It is the anniversary of Flapjack's death. Hunter and Willow talk about grief, memory, and what you can do to try and keep living.

Summary
As the light began to dim, Link was shook from his stupor by a noise. The long-haired hero had dismounted from its pillar first and- it was moving and alive and right in front of him- was now crouching down, still wielding its sword as it glanced around in equal amounts of confusion, trepidation and threat. The tunic it was wearing was a light shade of blue, falling naturally as if it hadn’t been stone just mere seconds before.
Turns out the past hero statues in the Temple of Souls have... well, souls. And that the Hero Spirits within them return to life at night.

Summary
In Starscream’s honest (and very humble) opinion, this was one of the worst days of his life.
And that’s against some very steep competition, you know! Millennia upon millennia of having the worst luck known to Cybertron and beyond really lends itself to a never-ending stream of horrible events that all culminate into an ever-present world-weariness and severe paranoia, all channeled into one (unfortunately small) seeker.
Today in particular, though, seemed to deviate from his usual pattern of bad luck, in the form of an irate Autobot.

Another tfp Starscream redemption fic, what more could you want? I don't take myself too seriously, so neither should you.
This is my first fic ever, so formatting advice, critique, and funny insults are encouraged.
(Title from The Fall by half•alive, which is a song I believe describes Starscream and any potential redemption of his quite well)

Summary
Any self-respecting Towers mech should know how to court properly, and Mirage is nothing if not a proper Towers mech. Of course, the whole affair would probably have gone a lot easier if anyone had thought to inform Hound that he was being courted in the first place.

Summary
Before he became Wheeljack, R2071 knew who he was going to be. It was who he was sparked to be, after all: Assistant to Shockswitch, one of Iacon University's most prominent engineers. It was who Shockswitch had been training him to be from the moment he had come online, and it would make Shockswitch happy, if only R2 could learn to do anything right.
Then, before he became Wheeljack, R2071 met Ratchet.

Summary
Starscream revives the Combaticons using the Harbinger protoforms.
For freedom, no price would be too great—but what does freedom truly mean? Four million years have passed since the exodus. Cybertron died long ago, and the Decepticon Cause has dwindled to a mere shadow of its former glory. Hunted by enemies from every side, the Combaticons must carve their own path upon the alien world of Earth.
