Transformers: All for One Flash Fictions

by SingingFlames

Flash Fan Fictions set in my All for One series. These ficlets mainly focus on the Command Trine (Starscream, Thundercracker, Skywarp), but other characters may pop up. No pairings. No OCs. Each ficlet is a stand alone story. I'll raise the rating if need be. UPDATED 3/12/19!

1. Roles

Series Note - I plan on doing several of these Flash Fan Fictions, and the Transformers ones that could conceivably fit into my All for One series I plan on collecting here (since they're too short to be a chapter in the main series). They'll probably be mostly humor, but I may throw in other genres as well. We'll see. :)

Title: Roles
Pairings: None
Rating: G
Warnings: None
Author's Note: This is a Flash Fan Fiction Friday entry, for the theme "household." Coming up with a 300 word Transformers story, incorporating the word "household" was a unique challenge. Word count: 296.

The distant sound of squabbling floated into the lab, growing steadily louder. Starscream grimaced. He recognized the voices. Of course those idiots couldn't possible leave him alone. They certainly weren't down here to pursue any scientific interests. One didn't have the desire, the other the mental capabilities.

The lab door snicked open.

"'Warp, just don't!"

"It's funny!"

Starcream glared at his trine mates. Thundercracker clutched at Skywarp's arm, attempting to pull him back. The Air Commander narrowed his optics. He joined the conversation, "No, it's not."

"Ah, c'mon, Screamer! You don't even know what we're talking about!"

"Don't call me that! And it involves you. It's not funny."

Thundercracker hid his smirk, releasing his trine brother. "You heard him. Let's go."

"Just listen! I've been thinking–"

"Never a good thing," Starscream said.

"Shuddup. Anyway, human families live together in a household, and they have standard roles in those groups. Well, we're like a family. We could fill out those roles." Skywarp grinned, glancing between his wing mates. Thundercracker covered his optics. "TC keeps us together, breaks up fights, so he could be the 'mother'–"

"I hate you sometimes," Thundercracker muttered.

"–and I'm the fun loving 'dad,' who likes to tell jokes and go out with 'the guys.' And … and, uh, why are you pointing that at me?"

Starscream considered Skywarp over the barrel of his null-ray. The weapon hummed to life. "Please continue. What am I?"

"Nothing. I hadn't gotten that far." Skywarp shrugged. "But TC was so upset, I thought it was funny."

"You shouldn't think. You don't do it well." The Air Commander lowered his weapon and turned away.

"But you sure make a perfect grumpy grandfather no one wants around."
