DISCLAIMERS: I don't own Transformers. They just came over from Hasbro to visit and be general pains-in-the-aft. All the humans in the story are mine, as are Slipstone, Smallfoot, Rally, Static, Steelshot and Sola. Rating is T.
AUTHOR'S NOTE: Writer's block is a horrible thing. So, to get the creative juices flowing, I decided to try my hand at the 1 sentence challenge that everyone was doing. Only I didn't have access to a table for that challenge. I did have the tables from the 100 situations on Live Journal. I picked a table and started writing. Been working on them on and off for over a year now and finally finished all 100.
These all take place in my Mechamorphosis AU. They are in the order I wrote them. Slash is implied in a few of them, nothing graphic, hopefully humorous. A few take place after some of my other fics or were inspired by someone else's work; those are noted after the applicable prompt.
Special thanks go out to Okami-chan for beta reading these for me and finding my typos and grammar errors and helping me when inspiration was sometimes lacking.
87 – Crybaby
Steelshot rolled his optics behind his visor as he removed a piece of shrapnel from a constantly whimpering Sola.
94 – Vomit
Sideswipe learned the hard way that Gwen wasn't kidding about the high speed turns being a REALLY, REALLY bad thing when mixed with morning sickness.
65 – Rivalry
Seeing them fight, you'd think they were bitter enemies but it was only sibling rivalry.
6 – Careen
Watching Ratchet yell at the newly sparked mechs as they careened around the corner, Aegis felt hope for the future.
68 – Skin
Gwen always marveled at the feel of their metal skin; smooth and hard like freshly painted metal, yet still warm and supple-seeming.
9 – Bath
Whenever someone had trouble locating Sunstreaker, Sideswipe always directed them to the wash racks.
3 – Dance
Watching Jazz 'bump and grind' to a song he played on his radio, even Brad had to admit he was a lot more graceful than his boxy 18ft primary mode implied.
37 – Lover
Sometimes Brad noticed Mirage and Hound acting peculiarly affectionate to each other and he did NOT want to know why.
20 – Stink
One of the things Mirage had a real hard time adjusting to with humans was their variety of scents.
4 – Sing
"Jazz dance?" Gwen grinned at her astonished husband. "You should hear him sing."
34 – Cranky
Most people just saw Ratchet as a cranky old mech; they missed the deeply compassionate spark beneath the gruff exterior.
48 – Drown
"DAWN!" Hound froze for a horrified nano as he watched one of his human friends fall into the icy river.
27 – Eliminate
"I have a special mission for you, Mirage. Eliminate Aegis and the others will fall." Starscream smirked down at the much smaller mech.
42 – Last Wish
"It's called a will, Sideswipe. It tells everyone my wishes should something fatal happen to me." Gwen explained to the horrified red viper.
84 – The Morning After
Gwen always wished the morning she woke up in a box in the Exile's tent was clearer, but those memories were forever lost to the concussion.
64 – Duty
Prowl and Andre understood each other; both had made it their duty to protect others.
36 – Still
Hound froze, not flexing a cable or spinning a gear, and watched with delighted awe as the deer and her fawn stepped softly into the clearing.
63 – Coercion
John had used underhanded methods to get Gwen to work with the Exiles, unnecessarily; she would have if he had just asked her.
62 – Blur
Sideswipe had only time to see a bright green blur before the paint grenade exploded in his face.
61 – Race
All the sports car Exiles loved to race, no matter their age or maturity.
93 – Ticket
"Amazingly, the worst offender isn't Sideswipe," said Andre as he presented Aegis with a stack of speeding tickets.
32 – Confess
"I'm sorry, Bluestreak. We had no choice." Sideswipe was sincere as he confessed his part in the demise of his new friend's guild.
33 – Forgive
Bluestreak swore he will never forgive Sideswipe or Sunstreaker.
57 – Repeat
Garth listened to Bluestreak chatter with rapt amazement and wondered how he didn't manage to repeat himself.
28 – Birth
All the mechs watched with amazement as their newest members powered up for the first time.
50 – Stomach
"Bluestreak, you glitch, you can't mix diesel and gasoline in your fuel tanks!" Ratchet yelled as he pumped out said fuel tanks.
83 – Haircut
When asked what she thought of Hound's holographic disguise, Lucy replied, "You need a haircut."
18 – Lonesome
Hound gazed forlornly at the empty berth, reflecting that it was too quiet with Mirage in the brig.
1 – Phobia (inspired by Starhorse's A Most Reluctant Noah)
Nobody really understood why and had to duck hurled tools when they questioned Ratchet about his fear of snakes.
40 – Wake (takes place after Previous Encounters – Love)
When Sideswipe woke from his first good stasis rest in a long while, he wondered why the bunk felt funny and the ceiling was pink.
79 – Guide
After another argument with John, Aegis was thankful that the other humans assigned to guide them were much easier to get along with.
89 – Defeat
As he fought Tyrant after Tyrant, with no rest or repairs, Sideswipe knew he'd be defeated; it was only a matter of time.
5 – Cruise
It had become a ritual, every Sunday night Sunstreaker would cruise down Portage Ave, to show off his sleek alt mode to the other cruisers.
88 – Admit (inspired by Tirya King's No More Mr. Nice Guy)
Prowl glared at the two Vipers, knowing full well that it was them that bungee corded him to his berth and that they would never admit it.
90 – Fickle
Concentration was a fickle thing when someone dangled a shiny object in front of Sola.
71 – Alcoholic
Andre worried for his friend when he found her, yet again, asleep in the lounge with a bottle of wine open on the side table.
56 – Beg
Long Haul smirked behind his mask, thinking while there wasn't much about his job he liked, listening to the "insects" beg for mercy was one thing he did.
53 – Power
Starscream planned on conquering and enslaving the Earth, then returning to Mecha Terra with the power to overthrow the ruling Tyrants and claim his rightful position.
75 – Bubble
"Slipstone, what did you do?!" Ratchet yelled at the blue Tiburon as the table before them bubbled and dissolved.
7 – Psychic
Sideswipe thinks Gwen is psychic because she can anticipate him; Gwen says he's just predictable.
76 – Weight
It always astounded the humans when Jazz transformed from his 3 ton, 18 foot primary mode to a stereo they could all easily lift.
24 – Aghast
"You actually expect me to drive thought THAT?!" Sunstreaker exclaimed when he got an opticful of the road full of snow.
49 – Alive
"Hang on Side, we'll get you to Ratchet ASAP!" Hound pleaded with the battered warrior.
66 – Match
Despite what Gwen thought, John tried to match up the Exiles with a human guide that had a compatible personality and could handle them.
2 – Addict
Brad's drug of choice was computer games, which he lived and breathed to the exclusion of all else.
19 – Belch
All Bluestreak could manage after a rather loud backfire, which sent everyone into giggles, was an embarrassed "Excuse me."
46 – Dream (takes place after Dream)
Sunstreaker was amazed to finally get an uninterrupted period of stasis rest; free from being interrupted by his brother's dreams.
43 – Angel
Skywarp mused as he gazed upon Starscream, morning light sparkling over his silver wings, that the closest thing that the germs had to describe his beauty was an 'angel', but much less wimpy and fluffy.
60 – War
John strode out, with total and utter dignity (amazing considering he was covered in silly string) and walked up to a smirking Sideswipe just to state "Of course you know, this means war."
54 – Drive
To Aegis, one of Prowl's most attractive qualities was his drive to achieve and be his very best at all times.
96 – Writer's Choice – Small
Sideswipe found it odd being carried around by Gwen after Smallfoot, in a fit of anger over a prank, shrunk him down to Andrea's size.
22 – Dropout
The young Tyrants scattered when Aegis dropped out of the clouds into their midst, seemingly from out of nowhere.
17 – Function
"State your designations and functions," Starscream demanded the newly built mechs.
11 – Coma
"Come on Side, stay with us! Don't let the Pit take you!" Ratchet worked frantically to revive the fallen warrior.
12 – Suicide
"Take on Aegis by myself? That's suicide!" Thundercracker protested.
55 – Sore
When Brad complained of having a sore back, Sunstreaker snorted and said. "Tell someone who cares, you wimp. I've fought matches to the death with only one arm and holes in me bigger than you."
8 – Insomniac
Perceptor gets so involved with his research, he forgets to recharge unless Ratchet yells at him.
10 – Homo
"I still don't get it," Bluestreak said after Gwen tried to explain to him again the difference between 2 and homogenized milk.
41 – Speech
"I'm starting to wonder if Sideswipe gets in so much trouble because he's bored or if he just likes hearing Prowl talk," Gwen commented to Ratchet.
97 – Writer's Choice – Call
"Gwen, where are you? What happened? Are you alright?" Andre asked trying to keep the frantic worry out of his voice.
74 – Pain
Mirage watched the human work on Sideswipe in their cage; she would pause at regular intervals, face contorting in agony, during which Sideswipe would stroke her back and whisper that everything would be all right.
59 – Mercy
Sideswipe grimaced and dragged himself upright, fighting the urge to offline and praying that Starscream would be entertained enough to show Gwen mercy.
39 – Run
"There's no where to run, organic slime!" Thrust cackled as he came around for another strafing pass.
80 – Track
"I'm sorry, Aegis. I can't find any trace of them. The tracks just end." Hound sorrowfully hung his head.
73 – Need
Prowl had to run a diagnostic on his sensors when he witnessed Sunstreaker answer Andrea's plaintive "I want my Mommy!" with a soft "Yeah kid, me too." as he picked her up to cradle against his chest plate.
95 – Bleeding
"Slag it, Slipstone! Clamp him off at the tank output and get me those replacement hoses stat!" Ratchet yelled.
85 – Sink
"What's everyone staring at? How are you slaggers getting taller… waitabreem… GET ME OUT OF HERE!" Bonecrusher's confused tone quickly gave way to panic.
26 – Nervous
Bluestreak was so nervous the first time he met his human partner, he was speechless.
29 – Medicated
"How am I feeling? WHEEE! Morphine is wonderful stuff," Gwen giggled at Hound and Sadie.
13 – Traitor
"A traitor? Yes, he is that, Aegis. But a traitor to whom?" Prowl calmly replied.
82 – Curse (credit to Epona Harper for the 'organic accent')
The human partners to the Exiles could swear fluently in Mecha Terran (with a certain 'organic accent') before they could speak it, courtesy of Ratchet and the Twins.
67 – First
"First, you wretches are going to clean up this mess, then you will report to Thundercracker for your punishment detail!" Starscream seethed at the young Tyrants.
78 – Dependant
"Sunstreaker, we have to maintain civil relations with the humans, our survival depends on it," Aegis patiently explained to the irate Viper.
70 – Band
"You mean to tell me, that the only thing standing between me and mastery of this primitive cesspool of a planet is a motley band of Mecha Terran refugees?" Starscream was incredulous.
86 – Cool
Very few things could make Jazz lose his cool; one of which would be hurting those he considered family or a friend.
58 – Rise
Starscream looked up at Aegis and hissed "I will rise again!" just before his spark flickered and went dark.
77 – Instrument
Bluestreak shook and whimpered in terror as he watched the cackling Tyrant Mixmaster ready another instrument for his interrogation.
45 – Blind
Hound cursed himself; how could he have been so blind?
23 – Quit
Thundercracker gazed in amusement at the red jet covered in silly string and commented. "You know, maybe you should quit while you are ahead."
92 – Speed
Rally lived to run and race; she could never move fast enough.
15 – Miracle
Bluestreak gazed in wonder at the new human infant that Gwen had brought home, unable to believe that Sideswipe had almost given his life to protect them.
44 – Elope
Jazz shook his head with an amused grin when an overcharged Ratchet suggested they run away and 'elope'.
14 – Loyal
Mirage paced, countenance troubled, as he weighed his loyalties and found himself lacking.
81 – Lacking
"My new invention is just lacking one thing… what's this? Oops… uh oh… Everyone, take cover!" Slipstone yelled.
25 – Station
Jazz didn't have a favorite radio station; he loved them all.
35 – Breakdown
Perceptor didn't know what was going to breakdown first, Slipstone's invention, Ratchet's patience or Gwen into giggles.
38 – Flame
"I find no logic in this odd human custom," Prowl whispered to Jazz as they watched their human friends place sticks of wax in a colorful slab of soft carbohydrates and set them on fire for the express purpose of singing and blowing out the flames.
99 - Writer's Choice – Companion
Sunstreaker glared at the pretty green femme that had him pinned to the wall and snarled. " For the last time Rally, I do NOT want to be your companion!"
98 – Writer's Choice – Fury
Prowl stood impassively, recalculating his strategy while the fury of the battle raged on around him.
16 – Divorce
Aegis feared that the rift between Mirage and Hound would be permanent even though Jazz and Ratchet assured him that they just needed time.
21 – Labor
As they mopped up the paint from the Command Center floor, Sunstreaker cursed Sideswipe for dragging him into the prank, Prowl for being a 'fragging slave driver' and himself for listening to his twin.
30 – Poor
"Does the poor little Exile got a scratch on his precious paint job?" Skywarp sneered at Sunstreaker.
31 – Rob
"You will not rob me of my victory!!" Starscream shrieked at Aegis.
47 – Journey
Bluestreak felt a rush of excitement as he followed Prowl and Mirage down the highway, towards what would be a new home and the end of their long journey.
69 – Overdose
"Smallfoot, exactly how much of my 'special brew' did Static dare you into consuming?" Ratchet shook his head at the young femme as he replaced her burned out capacitors.
91 – Haze
"Excuse me while I kiss the sky!" Jazz posed dramatically as he sang.
100 – Writer's Choice – Mischievous
Gwen handed Sideswipe a box of silly string, water balloons and other prank supplies. 'You didn't get this from me and let me know when you set him up."
72 – Spiteful
Mirage saw his opportunity when Sideswipe shrunk down to take Gwen shopping; it would serve him right to drag him along to this fragging planet.
52 – Force
"Use the Force, Hound, use the Force!" Sideswipe called as he watched Hound and Mirage spar.
51 – Raw
Sadie winced in sympathy as she watched Ratchet repair the raw, sparking wound on Bluestreak.
