Okay, I felt kinda doofy doing this, but it ended up being kinda fun. I wrote these bits for a meme on devArt; they're all established Ratchet/Twins because that's what the muse struck me with. --;
Ratings vary, but there are none higher than T. Some of them mention character death.

The rules for the meme are as follows:

Choose a subject and go -

Writing: Put your entire music collection on shuffle, hit play, and write. Write for as long as each song plays and move on to a different writing when the song switches(even if it's mid-sentence). Go for ten songs(or five). If nothing comes, it still counts. If you're listening to a comedian, you can skip it.

Drawing: Basically same as the writing, only you draw for the duration of the song instead of write.

Let me know which of these you would most like to see continued; all of them are gnawing at my heels, but I just don't have the time to devote to writing all of them. (Also, if you would like to adopt one, please feel free to do so. Just send me a link with the finished result.)

Disclaimer: As usual, I'm a poor broke college student who owns nothing.

Until the End – Breaking Benjamin

Sideswipe shrieked in fury and fear when he saw Sunstreaker plummet from his perch on Skywarp's back. He leaped after him, trying to use his jetpack to catch him, but he could see it was useless even as he made the jump. He watched in horror as his brother struck the ground, and screamed for Ratchet, who was already racing across the battlefield toward the fallen yellow warrior.

They both reached him at the same time, and the worried medic didn't spare a moment to swear at either of the twins before diving in to stop Sunstreaker's spark from guttering. Sideswipe knew that it was a useless endeavor; Sunny somehow managed to meet his gaze and shake his head minutely.

Sideswipe expelled the air from his cooling system in a long, shaky sigh, and sat down beside Ratchet to await the inevitable. He could feel through the bond that the medic was just as terrified as they were, that he knew what was happening even if he didn't want to acknowledge it.

Chicks Dig It – Chris Cagle

"Why the frag do you always do this to yourself?!" Ratchet snarled, slapping the side of Sideswipe's black helm.

Sideswipe shrugged and grinned. "Because it was fun. Besides, you like it when you've got me in your claws," he purred, and the medic growled in response.

"Banging out your dents is not what I would define as fun," he snapped, and Sideswipe's grin just grew. "So tell me again why you decided to go sledding from the top of the volcano—and give me a rational explanation this time

Magic Carpet Ride – Steppenwolf

"C'mon, it'll be fun, Ratch," Sideswipe wheedled, looking at his bondmate with a pleading expression.

Ratchet gave him a flat look, and then spared one for Sunstreaker, standing impassively behind his brother. "No. I'm not doing it," he said stubbornly.

"But how will you know whether you like it or not if you don't try it? We won't hurt you."

Second to None – Styles of Beyond ft. Mike Shenodah

"Any other takers?" Sunstreaker purred, turning in circles to pin each mech in the training room with his vicious stare. He bared dental plates when no one stepped up, looking feral with the battlelust coursing through his systems.

"I thought so," he concluded smugly after completing his circuit.

I Shall Believe – Sheryl Crow

"Come here, Sunny," Ratchet said soothingly, warily eyeing the warrior, who had his hackles up from the rather merciless teasing his comrades had subjected him to. The others hadn't yet figured out that Sunstreaker couldn't be needled about a new relationship the way that other mechs could.

"No," Sunstreaker said shortly, still glaring angrily at the room at large.

Ratchet sighed and went to him, knowing that it was futile to convince the yellow twin to do anything he didn't want to do when he was in a mood like this. In full view of the rest of the room, and not caring in the least what they thought, he wrapped his arms around his warrior lover. He was rewarded with the feel of Sunstreaker relaxing against him minutely.

"They're just teasing you," he said softly, and Sunstreaker nodded hesitantly. He laid his head on one white shoulder, and Ratchet felt some of his own tension leave him.

"I believe you," Sunny murmured

Fade to Black – Metallica

"Sides?" Ratchet asked softly, coming up to lay a red hand on the Lamborghini's shoulder. Sideswipe didn't move, didn't acknowledge him in any way, even through the bond they still shared.

The medic's hand tightened on his bondmate's shoulder involuntarily; he'd be damned if he would lose Sideswipe as well as Sunstreaker. At that thought, Sideswipe finally looked up at him sharply.

"Just let me die," he rasped harshly, and Ratchet flinched away before getting right in Sideswipe's face.

"No," he said coldly. "I will not lose both of you, fraggit!"

Sideswipe's expression crumpled, and he pitched forward into Ratchet's arms. "It hurts," he managed. "Primus, Ratchet, it hurts!"

"I know," the medic whispered, already broken spark shattering
