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.

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.

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.

Summary
Starscream is dead. But don't worry! Everything is fine.
There will be lies. There will be opera. There will be failed seductions. There will be acute nervous breakdowns, philosophical jargon, daring rescues, and (perhaps) even some kind of redemption.

This fic is so good, it convinced me (notoriously skittish of betrayal by WIP) to trust fall on a WIP. I love it so much. It single-handedly sold me on Starscream/Ultra Magnus and I cannot resent it for stranding me in this tiny canoe of a ship because it is an AMAZING ship. Just a really fun AU all around!!!

Summary
Wheeljack accidentally doses himself with homemade interfacing nanites. Fortunately, Starscream is on hand to keep his spark from burning out. When it turns out the nanites are so much more than charge enhancers, Starscream can’t help but take advantage… Which is exactly why Wheeljack came to him in the first place.

The concept of porn about teaching newly onlined cold-constructed bots to interface is so good, and the way its used to explore things about Starscream's character and the Starscream/Bumblebee relationship is So Good.

Summary
“And what’s the price for a Decepticon leader’s help these days?" Optimus said. "Head of his captor on a pike?”
The Councillors started falling over each other hurriedly protesting, no, no, of course not, how could Optimus think, never—and Megatron laughed over them all and said, “It’s not your head I want to mount. I have demanded you as my consort.”
“Okay, well, that’s—unexpected,” Optimus said, blankly.

Summary
Prowl: the rational skeptic with a history in crime scene investigation. Mesothulas: the wide-eyed believer who's mastered—or at least dabbled in—every field of science under the sun. Together, they're Iacon's leading paranormal investigators. ... With a few twists.
Twist #1: Both are stone cold skeptics, with Mesothulas only playing the believer for their clients—allowing them to become wildly successful as paranormal debunkers. Twist #2: They don't quite disbelieve in everything; they both know more than they'd let on about the Iaconian Spindleback, a local cryptid with an eight-legged alt-mode. Twist #3: They're about to learn that there are more true paranormal things on Cybertron than just the Spindleback.

I love this fic. It smashes together so many things that I adore (paranormal investigation! casefic! taraprowl! body horror and related freaky shit!) and delivers them with excellent, nuanced characterization for both Prowl and Mesothulas and was just generally a really fun ride.

They meet for brunch once a week.
Pharma doesn't want this. Story of his life.
And yet without fail he joins Megatron on the observation deck, drops hard into the seat across from the most prolific killer of their time, and stares blankly into the black of interstellar space until Megatron pours him a cup of gritty oil and goes back pecking away at his datapad.

I have been chasing the high of this Pharma/Megatron "Pharma on the Lost Light (while Megatron is also on the Lost Light)" fic ever since I read it. Treating Pharma and Megatron as foils to explore what it looks like to make amends for the unbelievable harms a millions-of-years-old mechanical life form can commit is inspired.

They were called the “next step in jaeger technology:” fully autonomous jaegers that could grow and learn from their past experiences, able to adapt to any new challenge that the kaiju threw at them.
Specialist Sy Swipson had always had an interest in AI technology. So when he got the chance to work on one of the new jaegers, he couldn’t wait to get his hands on its systems. However, there seemed to be a bit more to the jaeger’s AI than first met the eye.

I am eternally weak to Pacific Rim AUs and the idea of making Sideswipe human while Sunstreaker is still (a form of) robot just works really well. The worldbuilding and the integration of the two canons for this fic is super good.

Yes, I got here looking for Kaon/Dominus Ambus fic. But what really blew me away about this story, and what stuck with me long after reading, is how well it works as a character study of Dom. It's a really fascinating look into How He Works and highly recommended for that in particular.

Summary
Thundercracker pounds on Acid Storm’s door. Even when he strains to hear, there’s no response. “Acid Storm! Are you in there?”
Something clatters faintly inside, followed by a softer sound that might be a curse. Thundercracker thumps harder with the side of his fist and the door rattles in its frame, old bearings and older metal. Their ship was made relatively recently in the war’s history, which is to say it’s a rickety rustbucket held together with glue and hope, and should’ve been put out of its misery long ago.
“Hurry up, already,” Thundercracker says, loud enough to carry, “Slipstream’s gonna make us scrub the engine filters if we’re late for patrol.”
There’s another clatter. This time, the curse is louder. Acid Storm’s voice comes muffled through the door. “I’m putting my face on!”
“Frag it, not again!”

Skyfire’s been pining over his lab partner for too long. He could swear Starscream has a thing for him, too, but when they finally get together, it doesn’t go like he expects.
Skyfire’s always been told the cold constructed were missing something. He just didn’t think it was this.

Excellent characterization, excellent take on the Skyfire/Starscream dynamic, and a really interesting exploration of ideas about robot sexual dysfunction (specifically, Starscream not having an array for sticky interfacing because Vos cheaped out on parts not necessary for a warrior).

This is a fantastic character study for Megatron AND for Rung, as well as a fascinating exploration of the question "What if Megatron remembered Rung after that one-off meeting?" The entire banners from the turrets series is amazing but this fic in particular does so much heavy lifting as a jumping-off point for other stories Nev and Dez wanted to tell and is my go-to banners rec for that reason.

Fantastic take on Cyclonus & Ultra Magnus' dynamic, fascinating concept for robot reproduction, and an amazing approach to characterizing Galvetron. On some level, I have never stopped thinking about Galvetron as female after reading this fic and it honestly made me like Galvetron sooooo much more.

This is THE Astolat MegOP fic. I love every Astolat MegOP fic but this is, perhaps, the one that emotionally decimates me the most. The collection of Megatron's poetry in particular is absolutely ruinous to my feelings.
