Method of humanization : Well of Transformation

Main character : Starscream (no one else humanized)

Summary : It’s tough to go from the Air Commander of the Decepticon Army to a despised “fleshling”, especially when you’re the only one of that kind in that base. The other Seekers see him as a

How have you missed Demyrie? Odd Couple and Odd Moments, both TFA? I think she's done a number of other humanized fics, but those jump out at me.

I don't read humanized, but she was the first name that popped into my head and I'm surprised you haven't read her!

[mdperera]

Probably because I'm not a TFA fan. :) I watched one episode, "Rise of the Constructicons", because I thought I'd be seeing the Constructicons from G1. Then kookaburra1701 talked me into watching a bit of "S.U.V." as well, but it didn't really hold my interest. So I tend not to read fics set in that 'verse either.

Ah, no rest for the weary, huh? Okay, no more bitching and whining. Except from Dead End, who's still miffed his scene got cut from the story. Special thanks for the delicate explanation of the humanization method - hiding the spoiler behind pale aqua text. Very clever! Personally, I'm just happy anybody could make it past that first chapter. As said before, I'm glad you read and liked the story. I think I'm going to give Taipan's story a try, now, it sounds like it will be amusing.

[mdperera]

Glad you like the mention. :) Yes, give "Fleshling" a try - it has plenty of amusing moments, especially at the start where Starscream faces either danger or mockery on all sides from the other 'cons.

Ha ha, oh dear. Um, you might not know this, but Raksha is DEFINITELY not the person I would take info from. She's pretty notorious in fandom for being absolutely bugfuck nuts.

[mdperera]

Oh, I know. I've read quite a bit about her. Thing is, though, one of her fics first got me interested in Transformers - this was before I ever watched the cartoon - and so I can't entirely dismiss her.

Also, she loves the Stunticons. So when I saw that her site was active again, I emailed her to let her know that she'd helped make me a TF fan. She responded nicely and asked what I'd written, so I gave her a link to my work.

I'm guessing it didn't meet her standards, because I never heard from her again.

Seconded. To say her comments on Beast Wars were biased would be to pass up the perfect opportunity to say her comments on Beast Wars are foaming-at-the-mouth G1 zealotry.

What about Crackalackalicious by Lady Dragon2?
