    Summary

    Clearly, whatever negotiating he had done, Star had gotten what he wanted. Megatron had probably patted him on the head and told him what a good little jet he was.

    "You're a mess," Skywarp said softly, pressing his helm against Starscream's. "You got fluids everywhere. You’re leaking."

    "Sorry," Starscream whispered. It was so faint Skywarp almost missed it. "Tired."

    ------

    Starscream is a regular guest in Megatron's berth. His trine, and every Decepticon, knows this. It's a power play, they tell themselves. He wants it.

    Every time Starscream comes back reeking of Megatron, Thundercracker and Skywarp are there to tend to him, increasingly convinced this isn't a risk worth taking.

    The day he doesn't make it back, though, is the day his trine realises they're in more danger than they could have possibly anticipated.

    Summary

    After years of careful manipulation, Megatron and Shockwave finally succeed in tearing apart Starscream’s most sacred bond: his Trine. Deceived by falsified evidence, Thundercracker and Skywarp abandon him, convinced he betrayed their sparkbound link. Starscream offers no defense, knowing their trust has already been poisoned beyond repair. As the aerial caste turns against him for an unforgivable betrayal he never committed, Starscream silently carries a truth he once longed to share with his Trine—but now chooses to bury forever.

    Summary

    Hashtag yearns to connect more with Starscream and she can't stand at how the world doesn't want to give him a second chance. She also wishes he wasn't so hostile towards the world.

    Her solution?

    To welcome Starscream into the Malto family as a new uncle and shower him with the love and support he needs, even if he doesn't think he needs it.

    Too bad for Hashtag, things aren't quite that simple.

    Summary

    In the skies of WWII Berlin, pilots have reported sightings of a ghostly aircraft, a phantom jet eerily similar to the game-changing Messerschmitt Me 262's being developed in secret by Nazi engineers. While the Luftwaffe fliers see this "Ghost" as an omen of good fortune, one disillusioned German mechanic discovers the mysterious plane hidden in his barn, somehow disappearing and reappearing at random, and quickly realizes that, for this machine, there's more than meets the eye.

    Summary

    There is a rumour in Zapolyarny Palace that amongst the Harbingers reside a ghost of a child.

    Some say it’s the spirit of the Harbinger’s victims, others say it’s a vengeful apparition of what led to the the Tsaritsa’s hardened soul.

    Whatever it is, the citizens of the Everwinter soil agree that if you see the spirit, knock on wood thrice, and cover your mirrors. Pray not for mercy, but for a swift death at the hands of the Harbingers.

    (Based on that one AU by f_ai_n on Instragram about Kaeya being found by Pierro.

    The Harbingers are still cuckoo bananas and there will be lots of incorrigible crimes, but inside the palace, they’re a found family bonded by murder, destruction, and the child their leader picked up. More of a family driven story. Obviously the lore’s gonna be all made up.)
