Just One Tonight
Because, for some reason, this popped into my head while trying to work some on my TFA project....
Seekers, like most other Cybertronians, had careers other than soldiers before the war kicked off and/or picked up. However, all seekers - Starscream included - shared a common career: pleasurebots. Starscream did attend the science academy, mostly because some of the intellectuals amongst their clientèle expressed a desire to have a 'companion' who understood what they were talking about at times.
The main thing to note is, in spite of this being legal prostitution in the eyes of humans, it wasn't seen as a stigma for a mech or femme to be a pleasurebot; in fact, it was seen as a valid career and nearly as prestigious as being a scholar, philosopher, architect, or another high profile career.
So, the humans are shocked when their Autobot friends fall into a discussion of just which now-Decepticon PB they miss spending time with the most.
Hell, I don't know. This has nada to do with the story I'm writing, why did it bite me tonight?!
