    Second verse same as the first. More of vortex and First Aid being fucking weirdos.

    Flawless texaid manifesto, round two. This one gets extra points for the excellent portrayal of the tried-and-true texaid consensual non-consent kink, without including any actual noncon.

    Summary

    Vortex woke with a sharp-toothed yawn, stretching out in his berth before he settled again, processor foggy.

    Oh, hey. First Aid was still here.

    Flawless texaid ship manifesto which perfectly encapsulates one (excellent) take on The Dynamic. Lots of great ideas about First Aid and Vortex's shared weird kinks.

    Summary

    Starscream loved planetary tournaments. They were large and loud and everybody who was anybody was there. You had to be. You couldn't skip, not even if you wanted to, not if you were trying to be relevant. Such a blessing that Starscream loved them so much.

    A fencing AU, because what else is fanfic for? Starscream is coaching at the new/old Metroplex club, the fencing community loves him, everything is fine. As long as he keeps focusing on that, maybe it'll even be true.

    I enthusiastically recommend the entire series. On its face, this looks like a silly AU where giant robots do fencing. And it is that! But it is also a deeply moving examination of dysfunctional relationships and differing responses to trauma and the way it dissects the megastar relationship gone wrong really blows me away.

    “My next semester’s project,” Starscream found himself saying slowly to Megatron and thus also the assembled crowd, “is a study. An in-depth piece of great insight and social awareness.”

    This fic is so smart and kind and the way it handles Starscream and Grimlock's respective issues really hit me in the feelings and stuck with me long after reading.

    The best soulmate AU (imo) is a subversion of a soulmate AU and this fic is both a great execution for that and an amazing ship manifesto for Starscream/Ultra Magnus, beloved tiny rarepair of my heart.
