Summary
Peter is about to graduate college and become an officially licensed Pro Hero. Too bad he’s already burnt out. Years of operating as an illegal vigilante with a supposedly subpar Quirk will do that to you. But just as he’s about to quit altogether, he meets actual Pro Hero Deadpool, a reformed villain who works hard to make sure others don’t follow in his footsteps. The thing is? Wade’s just as jaded as he is, and he has completely given up on making things better.
As their relationship deepens, Peter realizes he is not quite ready to give up on being a Pro Hero, a resolve that is tested when a new Pro Hero agency comes to town and takes over. The so-called “Guard” is a group of four eight-foot men with eerily similar Quirks—and they have no intention of making nice with New York City’s friendly neighborhood Spider-Man.

Summary
An AU set roughly at the time of the season 1 finale.
Unicron is defeated, the world is saved, and Optimus Prime is gone. In his place, a mild mannered and rather snarky data clerk re-emerges and returns to his oldest friend, Megatron. In his absence, Optimus’s team must fight to survive and rescue their leader before he decodes the Iacon database for their enemies. Meanwhile, Megatron’s plan to ensure Orion’s loyalty backfires. Love is a double edged sword. Ratchet must hold the team together as it crumbles before his optics. Megatron struggles to maintain order over his troops as he himself weakens to Orion’s compassion. Orion begins to uncover who his friend really is, and what it means for the future of all Cybertronians.Series

The gladiator is holding onto the archivist, looking utterly distraught; said archivist has gone completely rigid, reciting in cheery monotone a pre-recorded message that loops over and over.
Fun take on the reclamation of "autobot". In line with IDW orion pax's speech to the senate but taken big step further.

Summary
Imagine a highly specialized frame, streamlined to the smallest component. Balanced down to the most insignificant bolt, manufactured only from the purest alloys. Now mass produce seventeen thousand of them each vorn to maintain undisputed aerial supremacy over Praxus, forcing the latter to halt its production of flight frames altogether, because they could simply not keep up with the competition.
These are the seekers, the elite guard patrolling Cybertron’s skies. Vos’ pride and joy.
And they are not allowed to be anything but perfect.
Those that fail to live up to perfection are disposable.
And disposable seekers have only one place to go: the Sky Ballet.Or: Cybertron's society is built on pain and suffering from the lowest bloodsport to the pinnacle of performing arts. It takes Optimus too long to realize that this is by design.

Bookmarker's Notes
One day, in the far future, he will ask someone who knows much more about how the relic works: “Did the Matrix do this to everyone? To cruel Zeta, to the ever-paranoid Sentinel; to all the anointed monsters that came before them?”
“No,” the mech will say, adjusting his glasses nervously. “There are some failsafes in it. It can only change the parts of you that you allow to be changed.”
“But I was dead,” he will say. “I had no way to say yes or no either way.”
“And that, dear Optimus, is exactly the problem.”
love the world building and characterization + good seeker lore esp for starscream
