Authors Note: Because everyone liked the first bunch of moments, here are a few more for you. Maybe I'll do a few Decepticon moments later.
Disclaimer: Don't own Transformers. Simple as that. Enjoy!
1.
Ironhide didn't care that the twins would tease him for the rest of his existence; he had been oddly touched when Annabelle had run towards him as fast as her short legs could go, an hour after she had arrived on base to visit her father, excitedly showing him the soft, stuffed toy version of himself, complete with forearm cannons, that she had gotten from her parents as a Christmas gift.
2.
Bumblebee didn't understand as he watched the humans continue their activity; was there some form of entertainment in throwing sharp ended darts at a mounted cork board?
3.
"What the frag to you mean you lost the Majors sparkling?!"
"I mean one moment she was there colouring and the next minute she wasn't!"
"Primus. Have you looked?"
"No, I thought I sit down and have a nice cube of energon. Of course I've slagging looked!"
Pause. "You're doomed."
Groan. "Yeah, I know."
4.
The first time Ratchet saw Monty Python and the Holy Grail he blew a circuit from the stupidity. The humans seemed to find it hilarious though.
5.
The first time Ironhide heard a thunderstorm, he assumed the Decepticons were attacking again and blew a small hole in the ceiling of the hanger they were currently residing in. It took awhile to convince the humans he was safe to go near.
6.
"What the slag is up with the humans?"
"I have no idea." Pause. "It looks as though they're getting ready to celebrate something."
"Celebrate what? Christmas just passed and Easter isn't till April. What the frag is there to celebrate?"
"It was just a suggestion, there's no need to get your tail pipe in a knot."
"Bite my aft, Jolt." Pause. "Whatever this is, its complete madness."
"Madness?-"
"Oh Primus, Jolt, shut it-"
"THIS IS SPARTA!"
Crash. Silence. "Nice, just nice. You just had to kick the hanger door down, didn't ya?"
7.
Sunstreaker laughed himself stupid when he found out that Bumblebee shared the same name with a tiny, fuzzy bug; the youngling was not amused.
8. Wheeljack learned never to madden a human femme when they were on their menstrual cycle; somehow they managed to be scary than Ratchet.
9. Skids stared down in shock; that was a human sparkling?! They were so tiny.
10. Life was good, Blur decided, when it was just him and a never ending road.
11. While he hurled though empty space towards the small, watery blue planet at Bumblebee's urgent request, Jazz excitedly read through page after page about 'Earth' on what the humans called the 'internet'. Somehow, he knew that he would enjoy being on this planet and could wait until they finally arrived.
12. Sometimes he was so tired of fighting his brother, that his spark ached for the longing to simply give up and pass the command of the Autobots onto someone else. But Optimus knew that this wasn't allowed, that no one else would take command. So he continued to enter combat and give orders.
What kept him going was the Autobots and humans. Watching Bumblebee tease Ironhide, Sunstreaker and Sideswipe play pranks, Sam and Mikaela embrace, Annabelle shriek with laughter as Lennox mercilessly tickled her, Ratchet swear at the top of his vocal-processor when someone become injured, the Arcee's attempted to play human sports…
Because they were worth fighting for.

Number 3, by the way, is Sideswipe and Sunstreaker. You can decided who lost Annabelle.
Jazz needed a moment, I decided. For some reason he was the hardest to write besides Optimus. (Sorry if I butchered their characters somewhat.)
Review, please!
