Basically, put iTunes or equivalent media player on random. Now write (or draw) for however long that song is on; no skipping songs. Do at least ten (10) of these, then post.
I decided to not follow the time limit somewhat... But again, this is a collab between InMoNochrome and me.
1. No song
Prowl slowly walked towards the gentle stream of water flowing out of his village, sensory panels wilted down in his unhappiness.
He knew that he had never wanted this kind of life, though he had been forced into it anyway; and constantly, he wondered why. Did Primus truly care so little about his second children as to let them suffer as Prowl did?
Because here he was—a tall, handsome mech of Praxian build—with very few memories of his life prior to being found by his relatively new family. No mech or femme in this little village knew where he had come from, much less what his name had been before his helm injury, or even why a Praxian had been found in Kaon, which was half a world away from Praxus. Vaguely, Prowl remembered stumbling, confused and limping, around the wilds of Cybertron until he had seen the structures of small buildings, which he had collapsed while heading toward. Fortunately for Prowl, he had been walking near a path leading to the town at that time.
2. Your Love Is My Drug by Ke$ha
Jazz grinned as he heard the song coming on (one of his favorites). It made him want to dance, even if he had nobody to dance with (like tonight).
"I just can't get you, off my mind!" He sang along with the song, grinning as he slid out of his chair to head onto the dance floor. His spark thrummed increasingly harder in his chest as he began to dance with the other Cybertronians that were on the floor.
Unnoticed by Jazz, however, was that he swiftly gained the attention of most of the establishment, and soon more than one mech came to dance with him.
3. Hero by Superchick
Prowl stared out at the remains of Praxus, knowing that he and the other Autobots were too late to save his people.
"No," he whispered brokenly, wishing that Primus would have let him have something good for once in his life.
This was all Sentinel Prime's fault; if that idiot mech hadn't been so Primus-damned stubborn and indecisive, then they could have gotten to Praxus so much sooner! They could have saved more lives!
He brought his hands up to his mouth as a broken keen came out of him. He swiftly shut himself up, however, to give the rescue troops orders to search for survivors. It was the least he could do.
4. Walls by Manic Drive
The Autobots watched in surprise as Prowl laughed once he stood upon the stage, carefully picking the microphone up in his hands before he started singing.
"'Cause there's somethin' goin' down," the mech sang, surprising them all even further with just how well he sang.
It was strange, but hindsight would reveal that, since Prowl was a Praxian, his ability to sing only made sense. All Praxians had some type of artistic ability, no matter their actual function. Apparently Prowl's artistic ability was to sing. Who knew?
What surprised them even further was when Jazz stepped onto the stage to sing with Prowl. Everyone else found how they held hands once together on the stage cute, though, even if it freaked them out.
5. Breaking the Habit by Linkin Park
Everyone watched as the Cybertronian pod unfolded from its inter-planetary form. Once it had finished its transformation, a tall, amber-opticked mech stood watching them.
"Why has my mate passed on?" the Cybertronian asked in perfect English, grief lacing his words.
Optimus knew he only needed to say who killed the mech's mate for the mech to go on a rampage, but he couldn't say anything for fear of putting the humans around them in danger.
"Why did he die?" The mech asked again, but slower because Optimus wasn't answering him. "Was his death truly necessary?"
"Prowl... I am truly sorry." Optimus said as a greeting, sorrow lacing his words as he took a step closer to the mech, knowing that the loss was felt by Prowl even more than the rest of them as he embraced the shaking Praxian, feeling the keens as the smaller body collapsed and shook in his arms.
6. We Are by Keke Palmer
Jazz smiled as he observed the organized chaos of the Ark, with a frazzled Prowl directing all of it. When the Praxian mech tossed a glare at Jazz, the Polyhexian merely gave a jaunty wave, with the Praxian's glare dissolving as a result. Jazz had already done his part: now, it was up to the rest of their little family.
They had taken it upon themselves to give the mechs of the Ark a stable point in the ever-changing world of Earth, becoming caretakers of sorts for the younger mechs and comforters to the older mechs. That had always been their job, and they were grateful to be able to get to do it once again.
7. Forbidden Friendship by John Powell
He looked down under the crystal table, nothing. He smiled softly as he heard the sound of small pedes running around behind him.
Turning he just missed the small being pass by, and quickly moved around to be on the other side of one of the bigger crystals in the room that he knew the little one was hiding behind.
A quiet startled sound was heard as the little one fell backward away from the bigger mech. Prowl caught him before he could hit the ground causing the small one to giggle and smile softly.
The sparkling looked up with blind optics to where Prowl's smiling face would be and smiled up at him. Prowl spun him around a bit in the air before falling back onto their sleeping arrangement, nuzzling the little one carefully.
8. Stand in the Rain by Superchick
Jazz listened to the melody playing on the wind, audios catching every strain as he followed it to its source. He ran, heedless of the droplets falling on his armor as he followed his spark long after the music had stopped.
He launched himself on top of a building to look around frantically. In the distance he saw a speck of white in the near-ruined landscape. He dropped off the building, knowing that he had to get to the figure before something was lost. His visor flared brightly as the Praxian turned to him, doorwings low.
9. Misery Business by Paramore
Jazz's lips curled into a snarl when he saw the 'Cons torturing Prowl. He would get his mate-to-be back at any cost. His EM field pulled tight to his spark, not letting anything get past the vents he was crawling in.
Killing those mechs for hurting his mate would be extremely satisfying. A smug little smile turned his lips into an even more terrifying expression. He could already imagine the energon coating his hands as he buried his clawed digits into one of their sparks.
A dagger-sharp digit tapped on the vents a few times, scraping across the metal.
10. Sleepy Head by The Pillows
He ducked the punch aiming for his face, and spun to catch the other's legs. His leg met air and he was re-facing the smaller mech again in a defensive stance. The smaller just grinned before quickly striking out again.
