Summary
A lazer raced toward Ember. Her eyes slammed shut. Heat blazed over her side.
Something was burning. It smelled terrible.
Ember opened her eyes.
Two cloth straps hung from her elbow, fluttering sadly in the wind. Ember's groceries were a black, gooey pile of ash on the ground that was already beginning to blow away.
Ember stared. She lifted her head. A field of alien robots stared back.
"Those," Ember said, "were my," Ember snarled, "FUCKING GROCERIES! I JUST BOUGHT THOSE EGGS, MOTHERFUCKER!"
- - -
"I have never seen or read of such capabilities in carbon-based lifeforms," stated Optimus Prime. There was a note of intrigue in his bassy tone. Ember didn't like it. "Do you know how you came to have this power of transformation?"
Ember casually stretched out her legs and crossed them at the ankle. "I'm just special," she said.
- - -
After Ember's home is attacked by alien robots, Ember decides to level the playing field and take revenge. For a human, the idea is laughable - except Ember isn't human. Nobody knows what Ember is, but that's alright: ripping robots to pieces doesn't require a valid ID. If only these other robots would leave Ember alone...

Summary
Lena never would've guessed alien cars. She didn't even think 'alien' when the door of the speed demon she tried to get an autograph from opened to reveal no driver at all. The only thought running through her mind when a taser popped out of the dash was, Even the cars are opps. Her skateboard clattered to the pavement as her body fell limp into the idling sports car. A melodious beep-beep, beep, beep-beep twittered from the watch around her limp wrist, falling silent after another light zap.
"Ohh, I'm so fragged," said the sports car. "Breakdown, how mad do you think Lord Crazy-eyes will be if I show up with a fleshie?"
---
They're gonna kill me, Lena thought. Knock Out stepped closer. Lena knew she had to do something.
"Hey, we can work something out!" she called, looking right at the steely leader with the ridiculous eyebrows. Her mind raced, filling in a mental corkboard with what little string she had. "You don't get around humans much, huh? And the government probably knows you're here, right? You don't have as much freedom as you'd like."
Megatron's expression did not change. Despite the cold, Lena was sweating.

Summary
The world ended, and Clawthorn slept through it.
Light-years away from Cybertron, on a small marble planet of lush green and rich blue, Clawthorn slept. Lounging against an old tree, still as stone, she could have been mistaken for the tree itself. Moss blanketed her metal frame. Dirt and time had dulled the shine of her body, and the scuffs and scrapes scattered across her armour told their own tales. She had slept for many years, and would have kept on sleeping, if not for the tiny animal trying to make her chassis its home.
She felt something wriggling underneath her plating and awoke with a cry, shooting to her feet. She yelled, "Guh, get out!" and shook herself, cringing at the sensation of teeny claws tickling her inner workings.
---
Separated from her guardians after evacuation, Clawthorn is lost on a remote planet with no way to contact them. Hundreds of years pass and Clawthorn has grown, her frame becoming larger and stronger than should be possible. Cybertronians did not grow, after all - not like organics. Not like her. Clawthorn blames her monoformer nature. There couldn't be anything more... could there?

Summary
Elytron came out of the Well wrong from the get-go: smaller than a mech's servo and a scraplet for an alt mode - not even a form for the functionists to fuck over because it didn't get any lower than that. Which Prime did they piss off in the Allspark to be cursed so badly?
Shoved in a scraplet trap with the other vermin, Elytron awakens eons later in an Autobot base on a faraway planet, nothing to do but survive.
Elytron shakes out their wings, cracks open a ventilation shaft, and does the one thing they excel at: hiding. And stealing. They were multitalented.
- - -
When the two-wheeler opened the door, Elytron's instinct was to freeze. When her optics bulged and a blade popped out of her forearm, Elytron's next instinct was to book it.
"Scraplet!" she screeched.
Elytron hid amongst the cubes. Arcee didn't dare shoot at their sole supply of energon. If backup arrived, Elytron was fried. How in Unicron's left lugnut did they get out of this?
Elytron crept around piles of junk. Heavy footsteps rattled their sensors. Backup had arrived, consisting of the medic and scout. Three bots for one little scraplet seemed overkill, but Elytron was probably biased.

Summary
There's a certain point where you can no longer ask someone what their name is. Thorin isn't sure exactly when that point is, but he knows that it's probably some time before the person in question saves your life. On the far side of the Misty Mountains, Thorin realizes that he never quite caught the first part of Mr. Baggins' name, and he finds that it's astonishingly harder to learn than he would have thought. Fili, Kili, and Dwalin are no help whatsoever.

Summary
“You assume I mean you harm…” he utters softly.
And just like that, the stern, rigid scowl is instantly wiped off your face.
The man in the truck sounds…
…sad.
Not offended. Nor angered by your thinly-veiled implication.
Just sad. Dispirited, even. As if it’s only just occurred to him that you might have perceived him as a threat.
