    Summary

    For a young sparkling, a creator eating the last of your favorite treat is an offense on par with the greatest crime. So, naturally, Red Alert dials the Enforcers to come arrest his daddy in response. The Enforcer they get turns out to be just what they both needed.

    Summary

    “I’m not sure I can trust you,” said Ultra Magnus, relishing the way Optimus’s faceplate flushed with humiliation. “You’ll have a guard for those two weeks, and you will stay here, in Fortress Maximus, to ensure you don’t try anything creative.” He stepped closer, hating the way Optimus held his ground. “By the way, Optimus—you will succeed in charming Megatron. He was entirely correct when he said the Decepticons have the Allspark. This treaty must succeed.” He leaned forward. “Or I will know exactly at whose stabilizers the blame lies.”

     

    Optimus finds himself betrothed to Megatron, and Megatron a surprisingly courteous suitor. But the Decepticons are afraid of something, a looming threat on the edge of known space...

    ...and Decepticon machinations may be the least of Optimus's worries.

    Summary

    Jazz and Prowl exchange a strange look, something that makes Megatron want to strangle them because he can’t decipher what it is. He pushes back the suspicion that they’ve caught onto his situation; it would be impossible for them to know. There is nothing different about Prime’s frame or processor from when Ratchet had scanned him during his forced berth rest. They cannot know about him.

    “If you need an extended leave, don’t refrain from requesting it,” Prowl says after a small pause. “That was quite a blow to the helm you took.”

    “A measly blow to the helm won’t deter me in the slightest,” Megatron snaps before he can think better. When he does think better, he reiterates to a wide-eyed Prowl, “that is, my helm is more than capable of taking a hit.”

    Jazz laughs at that. It sounds strained.

    “Sure,” he agrees, “yeah, sure. Hey, how many digits am I holding up?”

    or; waking up in your arch nemesis' body is definitely high up on the list of Things That Will Royally Fuck Shit Up, right alongside not knowing how it happened, how to get back, and also how said arch nemesis ran their faction full of idiots through four million years of war.
