    Summary

    Soundwave wasn’t ashamed to admit it. He had fallen in love with Shockwave before he had met him, before he knew his face or name.

    Young, overwhelmed by his own power, Soundwave drowned. The mindstream of the whole city poured into his head, an ocean emptied into a thimble. Foreign thoughts roared and shook him senseless. A gale of sound and sensations battered him. And Soundwave was a speck at the mercy of the waves. He struggled for a while pathetically until even that meager resistance was snuffed out, his mind swallowed by the torrent. He was gone. Slumped in an alley, legs covered in the energon he expelled upon them, optics dimly shining, Soundwave was just another piece of trash for people to step over. That was the fate Primus had given him.

    Oh, but in this tumbling chaos, Soundwave found god.

    Summary

    It is a well-known fact that in a Functionist world, very small bots with a recording item alt-mode are not very appreciated, especially if their root-mode is a Beastcon. Either they are kept as tools or pets for the bigger bots, or they can try surviving on scraps without getting caught and sold. Ravage, Rumble, Frenzy and Soundwave know this very well, but Soundwave's latest find could change everything for them...

    Summary

    Soundwave caught the ocean in his arms, stole a kiss from faded lips and tasted bitter seawater.

    Slender arms wrapped around him, drawing him against a body which flickered in his hands; lithe, sturdy. Born for the skies, built for the war.

    ------

    Home. An archaic word, fallen out of fashion over the millennia. Cybertronians are a nomadic species for whom the word home has little meaning.

    At the end of the day, Shockwave comes home.

    Summary

    Hot Rod thought he should probably leave.

    Soundwave clearly thought so too. “Get out.”

    He didn’t. “I liked your music,” he said instead. “The stuff that was playing—it sounded good.”

    Summary

    The Decepticons were always to be a paradox: unable to survive war without High Command, unable to survive peace with them.

    Soundwave has known this was inevitable.
