Time Stand Still - Chapter 4

“Well done, my loyal servant Shockwave.” Shockwave allowed the slightest trickle of pleasure to pass through his frame at Megatron’s praise. It had been so long since he had communicated directly with his superior officer. And while he was a dutiful soldier who didn’t need to be rewarded for his work, he couldn’t deny that it felt good to have his loyalty acknowledged and praised. “All is proceeding as planned,” he assured Megatron. “Wasp will be silenced. And I have an agent working on decrypting the Decepticon database we recovered. Whatever information is on there will soon be ours to utilize.” Megatron lifted an optic ridge. “One of ours? I wasn’t aware that other double-agents survived the Council’s purge.” Shockwave’s antlers twitched at that. He kept his relationships with others to a minimum, but the Decepticon moles seeded throughout the Autobot ranks still shared bonds with each other. And it had still pained him to hear that Doubledealer, Counterpunch

Moons and Stars - Chapter 3

Mario had just finished counting the nails in the ceiling for the fifth time when the door to his cabin/cell thudded open. A stab of relief filled him -- not at the thought of rescue, but at the thought that something was happening to break the monotony of his captivity. While at first being the Broodals’ prisoner had wracked him with worry, after a few hours all he could think about was how bored he was and how his rear end had gone numb from sitting on a hard chair for so long. Wonder if this is how the Princess feels every time she gets kidnapped, he thought. “Hey, you giant rodents!” Cappy shouted, perking up the moment his captors walked in. “Yeah, come closer so I can give you a piece of -- what the flip?” Rango and Spewart didn’t so much as look at Mario or Cappy as they dragged in a hulking form and dumped it at Mario’s feet. They dusted their hands and strode out, stepping to the side to let Hariet enter the room. She didn’t spare the plumber or Bonneter a look either,

Time Stand Still - Chapter 3

Gizmo usually made it a habit to get to the tech center early -- if he was at his workstation first, that meant less opportunity for Terra-Byte to tamper with it. He thought the pranks would taper off after a few lunar cycles, but Terra-Byte apparently wasn’t tired of slathering glue to his keyboard or programming his screen to play clips from, ahem, work-inappropriate videos upon activation. And apparently Ramulus and Shortround were amused enough by his antics to not work too hard to stop him. Today his plans to get to work early had been foiled by a delayed train, so he fully expected to be greeted by Terra-Byte’s smug face and a mess at his workstation. Instead he found nobody present save a janitor mech humming a jaunty tune as he mopped up a swath of purple paint from underneath his console. “Uh… something happen?” he asked. The janitor, an aqua-and-white minibot with a mask and visor covering most of his face, looked up from the mess and waved, then bent down and continued

Moons and Stars - Chapter 2

It felt like an eternity later that the bag was finally yanked from Mario’s head. He blinked furiously against the light stabbing at his eyeballs, then squinted to get a good look at his captor. Whoever it was looked awfully fuzzy… though whether that was from all the fur or the fact that his eyes hadn’t quite focused yet, he wasn’t sure. “Gee whiskers, you’re an ugly one, aincha?” a deep, twangy voice noted. “Y’all have to shave every day to look that nekkid?” Mario blinked again, and the blurred image finally resolved itself into the tallest and lankiest of the Broodals, Rango. His long, drooping ears twitched slightly as he regarded his prisoner, and his eyes narrowed under the brim of his straw boater hat. “Hey, at least he isn’t mangy like you!” Cappy retorted from somewhere off to Mario’s right. Rango removed his hat and thwacked it against something metallic, making Cappy shriek and babble something that might have been a Bonneter curse. “Shut up, spooky.” He plopped

Time Stand Still - Chapter 2

Most days Gizmo used the back alley to get home -- it meant being able to slip into his apartment without risking the hazards of optic contact and social interaction. But the trash-collecting mechs were on strike again, and bags of empty oil cans, burnt-out fuses, and other junk had piled so high that they blocked off the staircase. The reek of stale oil nearly made him gag, and the thought of shoving his way through leaking bags and swatting away clouds of micro-flies made his fuel tanks curdle. With a deep sigh out of every vent in his body, Gizmo went to the front door and keyed in his access code. He disliked having to traipse through his landlords’ living area to get to his apartment. Not because they were unfriendly, but because it felt awkward walking through someone else’s space when you had no business being there. The entryway was quiet as he stepped into the ground-floor apartment -- no sign of either landlord, just a mat of stiff bristles for scraping the dirt off

Moons and Stars - Chapter 1

At first glance, New Donk City looked to be the polar opposite of the Mushroom Kingdom. While Peach’s kingdom was a land of vibrant colors, pastoral landscapes, and strange but adorable denizens and creatures, the Metro Kingdom was all shades of gray, hard angles, and a populace who varied very little in their appearance and clothing. And while the Mushroom Kingdom was a relatively serene place (when Bowser wasn’t attacking it, at least), the city was constantly alive with activity, horns blaring and people chattering at all hours, the buildings ablaze with neon once night fell and the street constantly bustling with crowds. New Donk City should have put Peach off… but to her surprise, she found she liked it. She wasn’t sure she would ever choose to live here, but despite being so different from her homeland the city thrilled rather than repulsed her. The people seemed content, even happy, and everywhere she looked there was a new wonder to marvel at -- a street performer, a

Time Stand Still - Chapter 1

The skies over Cybertron split asunder as if cloven with a flaming blade, a jagged stripe of molten plasma searing the heavens. From the rent in time and space surged a leviathan of alien make, a dizzying amalgamation of metal armor and organic flesh and bone and chitin. Vast wings arched from its sides, sheltering a host of miniature copies of itself like a cyberhawk guarding its chicks. A glowing violet insignia was splashed over the behemoth’s snout -- a crest showing a fist clenched around a bolt of lightning, surrounded by a halo of thorns. The Alternians had once again crossed realities to conquer the universe, and only a chosen band of heroes -- the Cityspeakers -- could stop them. “Frag, they’re relentless!” Gaia huffed, drawing her Garnet Axe from her shoulders and bracing herself for combat. “I thought we sent them back to the Pit with their tails smoking!” “Yeah, well, I guess they’re masochists who just had to come back for another round of punishment,” Hyperion

All was quiet in Bonneton. In a land of eternal twilight, one might assume it was impossible to judge when it was truly day or night. But the Bonneters required sleep just as much as any other being, albeit not as much as some creatures, and they instinctively knew their own daily cycles. So while a full moon cast golden light on the hat-shaped houses and towers below, the inhabitants had settled down for a few hours of rest. Tonight the Bonneters were more exhausted than normal… and one could still see evidence of the reason for their exhaustion scattered throughout the town. Streamers dangled from bridges and the tops of houses, wriggling in the breeze like colorful snakes, and tables still carrying plates and cups dotted the village green (though could it be called that when the grass grew black?). Flecks of multicolored confetti peppered the dark turf, and a massive banner declaring WELCOME HOME CAPPY AND TIARA still hung from Top Hat Tower. And smack in the center of the

Carry On Wayward Son - Epilogue

One year later… For over a century, Minneapolis and St. Paul had been dubbed “the Twin Cities.” But on the other side of the Great Lakes, the city of Detroit had acquired its own twin. Whether you could truly consider it a “twin city” was up for debate, seeing as Detroit’s sister city wasn’t even on the same continent… or indeed, on the same satellite. But the two cities had a close relationship nonetheless, and the new city owed its very existence to the aid and support of Detroit, so they shared a closer bond than one might expect. On the stark, barren surface of Luna, Earth’s moon, the sister city had sprouted rapidly over the course of a year, like a patch of mushrooms after a rain. Gleaming new buildings were being erected as fast as safely possible, some with the same blocky aesthetic of Detroit’s skyscrapers and warehouses but others with twisting, sweeping architecture unseen in any human city. And said city was being built on a far grander scale than an ordinary

Carry On Wayward Son - Chapter 19

The last time Optimus had faced members of the Autobot Council, he had been cuffed and paralyzed, treated like a prisoner of war. Now he faced them as if he were their equal, his wounds from the combat-by-champion patched, the Magnus Hammer at his side. And he wasn’t without allies this time either -- Megatron, Ratchet, Sentinel Prime, and Dominus Ambus remained by his side, flanking him like officers and gazing defiantly at the Council. Of course, the Council by and large didn’t consider Optimus an equal. If their expressions were anything to go by, they would have rather seen him cuffed and dragged off to prison all over again. And the fact that he had just defeated Ultra Magnus -- with the Magnus’ own hammer, no less -- did nothing to improve his standing in their optics. What had once been the field of combat now served as a makeshift meetingplace for Optimus’ allies and the six members of the Council who had made the journey to Earth. The Elite Guard had managed to produce

Hi! I wanted to ask...I want to try writing stories on Deviantart too! How do I do that?

Good news - you're now up to eight fics with pages on TV Tropes (not counting a few others with scattered tropes but no pages yet; I'm working on remedying some of those though):

* ''Fanfic/AChildShallLeadThemTransformers'' (''The Transformers'' - Generation 1)

* ''Fanfic/{{Domovoi}}'' (''Pacific Rim'')

* ''Fanfic/EyeOfTheStormKenyaStarflight'' (''Star Wars'')

* ''Fanfic/MagicAndSteel'' (''The Transformers'' -- Generation 1 / and ''Sleeping Beauty'')

* ''Fanfic/MeetingOfMinds'' (''The Transformers'' -- Generation 1 / and ''Animorphs'')

* ''Fanfic/RebornTrilogy'' (''Star Wars'')

* ''Fanfic/ThundercrackersGlory'' (''The Transformers'' -- Generation 1)

* ''Fanfic/TheUnexpectedRookie'' (''The Transformers'' -- Generation 1 / ''Cars'')

Until next time...

Thank you I'm kind of shocked "Meeting of Minds" warranted its own trope page, given that it's a silly one-shot written as a request for a reader. I guess it made an impression?

Apparently so - I'm not the one who made that page, but I guess the person who did so liked it enough. :)
