Flash Fiction Fills Take 60

[dracoqueen22]

a/n: Good afternoon! Here be all the flash fiction that aren't either a) part of a series or b) long enough to stand on their own. :) Enjoy! Oh, and these are self-edited. Beware the errant commas.

For nkfloofiepoof
Prompt: anything with the cassettes, author's choice went for Frenzy, Rumble, and threw in Bumblebee

And here I was worried that I'd taken Skyfire too off the mark. ^_^

Skyfire deserves more chances to be awesome. And he's just saying what a lot of people are thinking but are too restrained to act upon. This shit ends here, he says. I'm halfway tempted to poke him and see what else happens.

I shall endeavor to try. I keep longing to write "and then the war ended and this was what went down afterward" fic and just haven't come up with a suitable prompt yet. I think this serves as an excellent springboard. But feel free to snag it, too, if ya want. :D

Wow! Darker than I expected...but I've always been a big sucker for damaged, wounded characters - and watching Bruce fumble his way through trying to comfort Wally was touching. LOVED IT!

[dracoqueen22]

I am a sucker for damaged characters, too. ^_^ Glad you liked it! BatFlash is quickly climbing the ladder of my favorite things to write so I enjoyed doing it.

Bumblebee knows what he's doing and he's doing it on purpose. It amuses him. And he's waiting for Rumble to finally get up the courage to do something about it. :)

I think I was cackling alongside Frenzy the entire length of that flashfic. Bee is certainly devilish. Now all that needs to happen is for Rumble to make a move

[dracoqueen22]

That's what Bee is waiting on. For Rumble to finally make a move. :)

Yep! Skyfire is very done with their shit. He didn't want to wake up in a war and he's realized that it's not even a war anymore. It's just an endless battle of old grievances. The original goals are buried. So he's going to do what it takes. He also recognizes that Megatron is not the only problem, Optimus is too. You can't meet madness with rationality and expect there to be a conclusion.

Wheeljack has all kinds of stamina. And he loves being left desperate and needy. I have such great fun writing these and I don't know why I didn't attempt it sooner. ^_^ Yay for size kink!

To do a more serious review here, I'll say this: Skyfire's last words to Megatron were quite apt. Because really, he wasn't either. He joined one side based on a lie, and then jumped to the other only to find it didn't fit him either. He was a mech pulled out of his own time, and he didn't have the mindset the others did

Thank you! As I was debating with myself what I was going to do with this promt and this idea came to mind, I had to reason for myself why it wouldn't be OOC and then I realized, 1) Skyfire's not given much characterization as it is and 2) this war is not his. It never was. Why wouldn't he be tired of seeing the back-and-forth shuffle of it? And the rest just flowed. :)

I don't mind at all! Feel free to save it. ^_^

*grins*
G1 never really did. Gave some clues, but never really expanded on them. And then people just went the doormat route, which I didn't care for much. So I don't write him like that, and I like it when I see an author explore his character further. ^^

It flowed quite well. ^^

Thank you!
