Long-Form Fics

Are you looking for a long-form fic to read but aren't sure what my projects are? Too many things in the #chapter fic tag? This post can help you.

If you're looking for progress updates and commentary, you can find those on Tumblr (list of fic tags). I mostly use DreamWidth as an archive at this time and am much more chatty on Tumblr.

ONGOING

• Course of Treatment (AO3) - Series: Course of Treatment
  
  An in-progress IDW1!MegaRatch novel exploring themes of bias, chronic & terminal illness, and exile. Canon divergent (in the course and end of the war), post-war AU, character death, graphic depictions of blood & gore.

  In which Ratchet is the only concession requested by the Decepticons in the peace treaty.

• An Unfamiliar Battlefield (AO3)  - Series: A Grand Punishment
  
  An in-progress IDW1!MegaRod fic that is a role reversal of Solar Flare. This fic explores themes of grief, second loves, and escaping one's cage. Extremely canon divergent (in terms of timelines and societal structures) and also divergent from some of the world-building in Solar Flare (in regards to supernatural elements and religious ritual).

  In which a seemingly unqualified suitor vies for the open Lord Protector position for the Prime of Destruction.
  
  Requested anonymously on Tumblr as AU of an AU.

FINISHED

• Solar Flare (AO3, DreamWidth) - Series: A Curse of Favor
  
  A 34-chapter novel exploring divine horror IDW1!MegaRod fic with one-sided RodiStar, pre-war AU. Major character death, graphic depictions of violence, blood & gore

  “To destroy a corrupt system, we must first destroy its gods, starting with this one.”

  In which Megatron makes a mistake by sparing Rodimus, the Prime of the Sun.

   

• Reforged (AO3, DreamWidth) - Series: Reforged
  
  A 113-chapter slow burn IDW1!MegaRod fic, mild canon divergence

  In which Rodimus is “mistaken” as the reincarnation of Solus Prime.

  A fanfic novel with themes of romance, xenoreligion, reincarnation, the role of fate, and religious political conspiracies, Reforged expands on the moon colony of Caminus, its dominant culture, and what myth means to a recalcitrant "former" Prime on "vacation" to forestall fate, a condemned war criminal living on borrowed time, and an obsessed investigator fixated on discovering a dangerous hidden agenda.

   

• The Unlucky Marriage of Drift & Ratchet (AO3, DreamWidth, Pillowfort)
  
  A 4-chapter fic, nominally a IDW1!Dratchet fic, but with heavy DriftRod and some platonic MegaRod, began life as a prompt

  In which a captain’s duty to officiate bonding ceremonies is a problem.

  Based on a Tumblr post.

   

• The Hollow Man (AO3, DreamWidth)
  
  A 10-chapter horror fic of post-LL25 in the second universe - focusing primarily on Minimus and the Magnus armor, but also with some focus on other members of the Lost Light command crew.

  In which the Magnus “armor” reawakens.

   

• An Unintentional Voyage (AO3, DreamWidth) - Series: An Unintentional Voyage
  
  A 21-chapter long-form slowish burn G1!MegaRatch fic, absolute lost-in-space nonsense
  

  In which an injured Megatron steals and promptly breaks an experimental Autobot shuttle and in which Ratchet has more adherence to ethical codes than is strictly necessary.

  Originally part of Rare TF Pair Event 2021 - May

  Prompts: Old-timers/Healing

  It’s since spawned into a long-form fic.

• Settlement (AO3, DreamWidth, Pillowfort) - Series: Settlement
  
  An 11-chapter comedy IDW1!ProwlScream fic, began life as a series of cracky drabbles

  In which, as part of a peace treaty, Prowl and Starscream are caught in a very, very unwanted arranged marriage.

  Inspired by a series of cracky drabbles I wrote for Tumblr.
