    Summary

    How do you hide an alien who can turn into a fighter jet? In plain sight, of course. How do you make sure his alien, also transforming, former friends don't get at him? By employing him with the only team around that can take the hit of protecting him. And you can't forget his dog.

    The Avengers get a new team member, though they don't immediately realise it. Thundercracker gets a new team, but it's going to take a serious adjustment period.

    An Avengers focused crossover AU for IDW Transformers Gen1 that started as a love letter to MCU Avengers 2012 and rapidly devolved into something closer to Earth's Mightiest Heroes in vibes and continuity. Pulls extra characters and plot points from Transformers G1 and Marvel 616. Arc 1 complete, Arc 2 in progress.

    Summary

    “Nice shot, man!” Jazz yells, Bebop’s speakers carrying his voice.

    The mech blinks at him and scowls. Which, wow, okay, it has a face. Mouth, eyes, a nose—the works. Well, one of the eyes isn’t lit up, but still. It can blink! Jazz couldn’t even get the clearance to have Bebop’s visor display emojis, and not for the lack of trying. Meanwhile, this guy gets a whole, expressive face and—holy shit, are those teeth?

    ———

    Inspired by the wonderful AU keferon's cooked up. Go check them out on tumblr.

    Summary

    You needed an escape. Life had taken a turn, and you were stuck. No way forward, no way back, everything crumpling around you like a house of paper.

    Then your Uncle Fowler offered you a job that came in answer to your prayers, because it offered shelter, food, and income. The only catch?

    You might just die trying to live.

    Because Ratchet needed a medical assistant, and the Autobots needed someone who it didn't matter if their mind got read by the ominous prisoner held so carefully confined in a secured cell.

    So, that's how you met Soundwave. Big scary bad guy all locked up and rusting away, but that's not how things stay between you.

    --

    Another wandering tale. Whimsical. Less structured and edited than my more serious novels. Yet another tale written for fun and emotional therapy. This tale has a lot more emotional angst and hurt, especially due to the nature of the imprisonment / captor circumstances.

    Summary

    In this Autobot-Decepticon war, you've lost count on how many times you've failed to save your friends; the many times you've died. Loop after loop, you slowly forget to fear death, to feel the hollowness of grief, to truly live, but not love. You never forget to love. Maybe that's what got you damned in the first place.

    As if to damn you further, the circumstances of your most recent death dragged the Decepticons' best soldier with you in this time loop.

    It doesn't matter what he does; you can always try again.

    (Or, Soundwave severely underestimated human willpower.)
