It’s that time again! Time to share your favourite Transformers fanfics!

A caveat - I only picked fics that are completed. While I have a lot of excellent fics in my subscriptions on AO3, I am only posting ones that are done, for that instant gratification rush. :)

Here are my recommendations from 2018.

My choice! Woohoo!

True Colors by @ladydragon76
After crashing on an alien planet, Bluestreak and Dragstrip need to work together to get back to Earth.

A/N: I got a little tired of fandom personifying Bluestreak as a woobie. He’s a sniper, an elite, the best the Autobot’s have. Stands to reason that he’d be a capable of pulling on his big bot panties, and getting himself through a crisis situation.
Today’s selection is an older story, but I love it. I had to include the author’s note in the summary because it helps explain why I love this fic so much: Bluestreak putting on his big bot panties. XD

It’s no secret that I love Bluestreak, but I love him more as a competent fighter, a solider, someone who knows what needs to be done and then goes out to do it. Yes, he’s friendly and chatty and all that, but he’s also a force to be reckoned with to be sure. This story has that all in spades.

The Long Walk Home by @doomspoon888
Megatron and Starscream are thought dead and left behind on a distant battlefield. With Starscream’s wings damaged and comm systems down, they’ve no choice but to make their way back on foot. From east to west coast.

Even with legs as long as theirs, it’s going to take a while.
(NSFW near the end.)

I love this fic. It’s a slow burn, which is totally my jam. It’s also a classic enemies-to-friends-to-lovers trope, combined with a dash of “trapped together” although they aren’t trapped so much as forced to depend on one another.

If MegaStar interests you in the least, do yourself a favour and check this story out.
