Title: How Long

Series: Transformers, G1-based “Blue” AU

Rating: PG-13 I guess? (They're consenting adults and they're only talking about it. Warp is just... petulant. And as usual it's Starscream's fault.)

Notes: There are some people you should just be able to trust, right? So what do you do when you realise you shoulda perhaps been a little more... circumspect? (Whatever that means…)

Skywarp finds out that the relationship between his femme and his bro may not have been quite as exclusively platonic as he’d thought.

(Follows on from “Different Kinds of Heat”)

It had started out as a normal evening, so far as Thundercracker could remember... )

Title (chapter): Reading is a Dangerous Pastime
Series: Transformers, G1-based “Blue” AU
Rating: PG-13
Notes: Written for International Fanworks Day 2020, based on the OTW Prompt: "characters react to discovering fanworks they are in."

Skywarp finds out about fanfiction; it shouldn't have been a surprise to anyone that it ended up turning into a scrap. And Thundercracker wishes Darkwater had come to him about it first.

Now, Thundercracker knew FOR A FACT that Skywarp had clocked off and gone home some time just into the orn’s second quarter, because the teleport had pulled a double and wanted sympathy from everyone he bumped into. So why WAS he still just standing around – still partially in uniform into the bargain? )

Is it a bad sign that a couple of chapter of this is the only thing I've posted in almost a year? Hmm. ¬_¬

Title (chapter): Remember Me (09)
Series: Transformers, G1-based “Blue” AU
Rating: PG-13
Notes: In which Skywarp demonstrates that he doesn't often stay down for terribly long, and Pulsar goes to see her sister (who feels somewhat abandoned and unloved in hospital).

OK, so. I probably COULD have planned this a little better, Skywarp accepted, reeling backwards from another blow and feeling the wall impact his battered wings. )

Look at this! OMG. 😍

My awesome friend Exie (who is totally NOT a brick) wrote a ficlet that follows on from the one I just posted, with the exception that hers is infinitely more adorable.

Take the Initiative

Title: Take the Initiative
Series: Transformers, G1-based “Blue” AU
Rating: PG-13 I guess? Do TF cusswords count as swearing? *ponders*
Notes: Tired of watching Celerity allllways sighing at TC's office door, Skywarp takes the initiative to play matchmaker. It doesn’t go quite as planned, but it isn’t a total disaster, either.

Not sure precisely when this is set, other than "some time between Future Tense and Remember Me".

And additional NB: Lara is a BIG girl – not quite as big as Hardline, but close (taller than new-model Seekers, definitely), and built rather like a brick outhouse. She's... not sure how much she likes being THAT BIG.

“Grounders,” Skywarp snorted, deliberately baiting Thundercracker's deputy for a response. “Never can handle their high-octane fuels.” )

So I wasn't planning on uploading this but eh, it's productivity. I spotted this on tumblr this morning and I went "oops. I think this is me right now?"

In case it disappears, it says:
"real writing tip sometimes you write your best stuff when you don’t even try or don’t even think about ever publishing it or doing anything with it
you go: imma write this for me and next thing you know you’ve written 60K and you have an entire world and plot and you wonder why you didn’t indulge yeARS AGO
"
(Audrey Rose B.)

I'm still not really planning on doing anything with this, but it's still productivity, right? And we all know what they say about plans.

Some disjointed notes! Kitty-giraffe is lost, cold, and wet )

Maybe now she'll get out of my head?

Title (chapter): Remember Me (06)
Series: Transformers, G1-based “Blue” AU
Rating: PG-13
Notes: Muuuch later than I wanted, but it's better late than never, right?

In which Skywarp comes up with a plan to rescue the kids! It’s a terrible plan, but it’s better than no plan at all – right, Screamer? He probably ought to have run it past his bros before swinging straight into carrying it out, though.

Slipstream had already lost track of the number of times he’d been sent sprawling, when his captors finally hustled him into a cell and kicked his feet out from under him again. )

(I should have posted this a couple of days ago, when I actually finished it, but after uploading it to ff.net and AO3 I decided it could wait.)

Series: Transformers, G1-based “Blue” AU
Rating: PG-13
Notes:Caution: fluffy robits ahead. Skywarp has a question to ask Pulsar, and definitely needs a little privacy from his wingmates to do it.

(Silly, self-indulgent fluff. ^__^ Warp has always seemed inclined to remain the eternal bachelor, in my little AU, but this sprung into my brain while watching a movie* over Christmas, and I decided it needed writing.)

Like much of Cybertron, Iacon’s residents were starting to pick up the pieces, and beginning to rebuild. The spindly towers of inanimate cranes dotted the horizon, and a scattering of mismatched lights twinkled from the windows of the buildings below. Aurorae swirled along the planet’s field lines, fine curtains and columns draping down from above. The otherworldly lights shimmered against Pulsar's pale enamel, turning her into a strange green ghost out on the platform. )

A/N: Gosh, has it really been 2 years? I’m so sorry. (In my defence, I haven’t been concentrating on other projects, work has been busy and I pretty much haven’t written anything. Getting out of the drought is tricky!)

Chapter under cut for length. )

A/N: Sorry again for the delay, haha. I just thought I’d got my groove back… and my PC decided it wasn’t going to play by the rules. (To the extent that I had to buy a whole new damn PC before I could get on with writing. Argh.)

Chapter under cut for length. (teehee, ''length'') )

(Edit: argh, autocorrect. It's councillor.)

Santa Thrust?

The peanut gallery (well, one peanut in particular) says SMILE MORE, SANTA, you'll scare the kiddies!
Thrust says WHY SHOULD HE SMILE, how's he gonna look like a handsome, debonair gent for the ladies NOW?

I think he should just keep righteous vengeance in mind. A certain seeker might end up looking like Rudolph, after all, when he gets a damn good punch in the faceplates.

Edit: WHY DIDN'T I USE THIS FOR THE INSIDE OF MY CARD THIS YEAR, argh. I actually don't mind how it looks, for a change. XP
keaalu: (Default)
I don't really have an excuse for this. ^^ It's highly stupid and mostly cracky and fell out of my headspace when my alarm clock poked me out of some delicious REMs, one morning.
(In order to be sure I actually wake up, I have to have three alarm clocks and they all go off randomly at 5-7 minute intervals for about 30 minutes before I'm actually AWAKE. For the first few minutes of that I'm still bumbling around mostly in REM, so I end up getting some pretty vivid dreams. I just don't manage to always write them down - which is something I think I need to change, ha.)

And of course, I've dreamed about various Seekers (and their progeny) a number of times, lately. This is one such dream; the approx 1700 words of prime stupidity that floated to the surface of my brainpan this morning.

It's a bit of a spoiler, as it's set waaay into the future of the Blue AU, some time significantly AFTER the end of "Future Tense" (which I'm still working on, I promise! I just have some major plot surgery to do), when a certain are-they/aren't-they couple have FINALLY decided that yeah, they've yelled at each other for long enough, and they've enjoyed interacting/playing mad scientist enought to want to get back together. (Because we all know they will, eventually, even if it does take TC banging their heads together to knock a little bit of sense back in?)

The reason for the little sojourn to Earth is probably just so that el Screaming one can upset the delicate inner balance of the Ark, but didn't count on his own inner balance being the one affected. Thousands of years of relative peace do not negate the desire certain Twins have when it comes to pranking certain jets.

I accept no responsibility for the breaking of brains. Read at Own Risk.

Hello, Chicken )

(Edit: I knooow, it goes very OOC towards the end, haha. But hey, it was a dream, I can't help it if my subconscious does weird things.)

Rating: PG-13
Summary: And finally, here we are in Amarna. And what's that you say? STILL no desert hugs? Aw, darn. Maybe next time!
Notes: I think little Seemy is going to have made himself a bit of an enemy-for-life, here. :shifty eyes:

Thank you all again for your reviews. :) Sorry it's got slow between updates, again - but I promise not to drop the ball! ;)

Sorry Ex. Still no desert hugs! I ran out of room. Next one, I promise! ;)

Rating: PG-13
Summary: And we're off to Egypt!
Notes: Thank you again to my reviewers. :) Sorry I'm making you wait so long between these things, I seem to end up doing about nine things at once these days and keep going off-track. :hrms: I did have a smidge more for this chapter (and I wanted to give TC some more airtime) but I found a good place to stop it. Hopefully that means it won't take so long to get the next chapter up.

Anyway. Hope this chapter is a bit better, even if it is another "talker". :shifty eyes:

Rating: PG-13
Summary: The arrival of the Secret Weapon.
Notes: ...I has a cold and my brain hurts. I apologise for any typos. You'll all be relieved to hear I'm getting close to the end for this one. ;) If you watch my LiveJournal you'll probably already know I do have ideas for a third story, titled "Future Tense", but I'm planning on leaving that one until after "NaNoWriMo" - trying to keep two stories on the go led to my miserable failure last year. ;)

...one of these days, I'll write something I'm happy with. And I won't read other people's things and get too dispirited to finish. Bah. -_- Oh well. On we go.

Giftarts. *gleee* *squish*

Warped - arts!
(lineart for the above)

And (unrelated) I think certain people should leave these in discrete places around the home for Warp to look at:
Caring for Baby!
(Thank you Gonard for breaking my brain *headdesk* ;)
And "Clearing baby's nose" looks wrong BOTH ways. O_o I'm sure those air-puffer things usually say "Do not squirt into orifices.")

Now to get back to work on the latest chapter.

Edit: OMFG I DIDN'T EVER LINK TO JILL'S FIIIIC *slaps self*
"Old Wounds"
A companion piece to "Unaccompanied Minors".
Go read, go go goooo.
