    Summary

    Embittered and defiant, Megatron’s campaign to crush the corrupt Senate isolates him from his friends and his morals, his noble Ascenticon uprising descending into Decepticon violence, control wrested under the erratic leadership of his lover and second-in-command Starscream, apparently insane with grief and endlessly ambitious. The Functionists propose an even greater threat, condemning their ally Sentinel whose elevated social status hangs in the balance with those he loves impeding his success, yet he must succeed, he cannot afford failure, for he would lose everything he has worked for. Inexperienced Autobots unite under the shy and gentle Orion Pax, expecting to be heroes, yet their intervention prolongs the conflict and costs lives, ruining others. After millions of years of war, Megatron’s insane plot is discovered and drives a reconfigured Optimus Prime in a desperate bid to save his people, yet the Thirteenth Prime reincarnate condemns Cybertron to a slow demise. Politics and faith are put to the test as soldiers and civilians love and lose and loathe each other, all-knowing old mechs in positions of power deciding the war-torn future of their surviving heirs in prophecy, the Prime a mere puppet of fate.

    Summary

    It was actually a quiet night, walking through the ground control room, Ratchet hunched over his research as he always was, ever present but never really there ("He just needs a few more vorns to get over it," Arcee had said, "Grief takes time, and our lifespans give us a lot of that.")

    Summary

    “So,” Jason says, “meningitis.”

    Tim covers his face with his hands. “Fuck me.”

    “Language, Master Tim.”

    Dick rubs Tim’s back soothingly, furrowing his eyebrows, “How is that even possible? Isn’t meningitis airborne?”

    “Exactly, Timothy doesn’t leave the house.”

    “I literally hate you.”

    Summary

    "What's up, Jaylad?"

    At the mention of his name Jason twists his head around, grin toothy and eyes crinkling at the corners. It reminds Bruce of a younger Dick.

    "Ol' man!" the boy greets cheerfully, fingers pointing at a specific patch of grass. Bruce crouches beside him. "How do ya say these things in English?"

     

    Or: Wayne Manor is a certified multilingual household, and Bruce is bullied for being a monolingual.

    Summary

    Bruce shrugged, before wincing, hand coming up to clap over the wound. Shit, that was a bad decision.

    “Wait a fucking minute,” Jason said slowly. “Are you hurt?”

    Bruce nodded. “Being hurt is usually the cause of blood, so I’d guess I am.”

    “Now is not the time for your godawful humor,” Jason grit out. “And you’re bleeding? Just from a hit on your armor?”

    “I was already injured there,” Bruce explained. “It opened up my stitches.”

    “Jesus Christ, Bruce.” Jason abruptly turned away from him and to the medical cabinet. “This is what you fucking get for interfering, you know that? Get your fucking shirt off so I can see the wound.”

    Summary

    One of the thugs trying to sneak up behind Robin stoops low, comes back up swinging at Robin's unprotected back with a fucking crowbar

    Metal clatters against the ground; the body follows it a second later.

    Jason lifts his finger from the trigger.

    Robin whirls, taking in the body dropped with a headshot. With a scowl, Jason kneecaps the idiots trying to take out Robin from behind again.

     

    [or: Jason, newly returned to Gotham as the Red Hood, keeps accidentally helping out the Bats. It's really frustrating.]

    Summary

    ‘You shot me!’ Jason gasped, stunned, ‘Holy shit, you actually shot me.’

    Tim’s eyes widened and he froze. They stared at each other for a second, dumbstruck and then-

    ‘Don’t tell Bruce.’

    Or: The family enjoy a normal movie night. Except Jason has a gunshot wound and Tim’s the only one who knows and oh- that’s because Tim’s the one who shot him and they really, really need to find a way to leave before anyone finds out.
