Summary
“Their energon is on your servos. Their great leader, their chosen one,” Megatron snarls finally, mockingly, and he puts so much quiet vitriol into it that it makes his own spark twist as he strains against the axe pressed to his throat. His optics burn. “How does it feel, Prime, to be blessed by a god?”
“It is no blessing,” Optimus spits, a holy reckoning wreathed in light from above, and they both ignore how it sounds like half a sob. “I had no choice.”
Five times Megatron fights Optimus Prime, and one time he doesn’t.
(There is a very thin line between a martyr and a sacrifice. That line is free will.)
(Optimus Prime, it seems, does not have any.)

These Days I'm a Circuit Board, Intergrated Hardware You Can't Afford by PeregrinOfTheShire

Summary
There’s an age-old debate about whether a mech’s spark can corrode. Turn the from the light of Primus. Poison their thoughts- their actions against their fellow Cybertronians.
D-16 had never believed it. Not until the day when his world had come crashing down around him in that cave.
-----------
“We could have built the future together, D.”He’s so tired, suddenly, frame aching from it all. And now there’s this- this new Prime standing here and it’s all wrong. Except, he can still see Orion Pax in there, with his righteous demeanor and those blue optics as familiar to him as his own. They’re full of sorrow, his mouth a twist of pain.
And somehow that’s what makes him turn away, resetting his vocalizer. “It’s too late for that.”
He’s hollow. He’s so full of this awful, septic anger and he has nowhere to put it.
“No, it’s not-” Pax reaches out a servo, almost hesitant. He looks like he’s actually listening for once, and there’s a touch of desperation there. Hope. D-16 huffs a small, brittle laugh. Pax always could hope.

cries banished from my throat by infinitemuffin

Summary
The poem speaks and cries with him in a way he cannot with anyone else- not anymore. The only mech he would have been that vulnerable with, he cast away himself by uttering five simple words. Words which his people would enforce as though they were spoken by Primus himself.
Orion never wanted to be a God.
And though Optimus will not, cannot complain, that doesn’t stop him from wanting to scream.
Or, Post-Transformers One, Optimus turns to the works of a new poet to help process his grief

Summary
Reaching up, D-16 knocks his knuckles across Orion’s helm. Gently, of course. The stupid bot was damaged enough.
“Go to sleep, Pax.”
“But you have to listen to this! There’s this whole section–”
D-16 sighs. Goes to lean against a slab that wasn’t his own. His spark spins, painful. Daresay calls it something like fond.
or; before Megatron learned to hate, he learned to love, and it hurt more than any hate ever could.
