    Summary

    Megatron froze as he felt Optimus’s servo inside his chassis tug at the energon line and a fresh gush of the fuel escaped him as it tore further. Their optics met and held. Megatron’s had widened in shock for a moment before narrowing again in calculation. Optimus’s optics were round in shock and fear as his life was held in Megatron’s servo just as the other’s was held in his.

    “Well,” Megatron’s voice was rougher than normal as this tableau continued, “we seem to be at an impasse, Autobot.”

    ~~~

    Trapped with each other on a strange planet, can Optimus and Megatron survive both what is thrown at them by this world and each other until help can arrive? Will they survive the revelations of their pasts and the truths behind what has driven them to this point?

    Summary

    Rodimus and his friends move into a student boarding house called Lost Light and start university. Decepticon activist Megatron has roughly the same idea. This causes no tension among his group whatsoever.

    Soon, they will experience how much university can kick one's aft, but that will be the least of their problems. The fact that nobody seems to be mentally stable only adds to the problems.

    Summary

    After saving Jazz from the collapsing tunnel, Orion Pax had promptly passed out. When he woke back up, though, something was different. Something about him had changed. Something had changed the way he looked at his best friend.

    And it broke D-16's spark to think about it.

    Optimus Prime woke up as Orion Pax again, and though he panicked at first, he realizes the opportunity at hand to fix where things went wrong. He wants to save D-16 from becoming Megatron and prevent the war that destroyed Cybertron. He would set things right this time, and he wouldn’t lose anyone else.

    If only he would stop seeing those red optics on his best friend’s face.
