I have been a fan of Transformers since 1985 or so, but I had wandered away from the fandom for a while. A number of seemingly coincidental life events have drawn me back, and I'm currently involved in writing a huge, epic series about Starscream. I've always just adored him, was heartbroken over his death in the '86 movie, and hated the way things ended up for him in the third season of the cartoon. After fighting so hard to get his life back, I feel that he deserves to have a life; one in which happiness is a realistic possibility. Hence the epic nature of my series!
It is a slash series, positing the idea that Starscream and Skyfire were--and will be--more than "just" friends, so it may not be everyone's cup of energon. If you are curious, however, you can find the stories I've posted so far at my account at Archive of Our Own (linked below), and with any luck, some of them may also find their way on here.
I would love to connect with other fans, so feel free to send me an email any time. I'm also a good beta reader, and might be open to checking out your story, especially if Seekers are involved. Drop me a line, it never hurts to ask!

Built For It by GraySeeker
Rated: Adult •
Summary: Tracks gets a late-night visit from a reluctant Prime, which leads to confessions... and more. Tracks/Rodimus. Gets steamy, so proceed with caution... or not! ;-)
Essay: The Astrology of Starscream's Death and Resurrection in G1 by GraySeeker
Rated: G • Summary: As fans, we know that fictional characters impact our lives in countless, very real ways. But is it possible that the lives and deaths of certain characters have an impact that reaches beyond the subjective realm of our immediate lives and emotions and into what we generally think of as "real" life? The answer, at least in Starscream's case, would seem to be yes--and in fact, his G1 death and resurrection appear to have been written in the very stars themselves.
Fallen Fire by GraySeeker
Rated: G • Summary: Starscream might have shot him by accident this time, but that didn't change the fact that Skyfire wasn't moving.
Keepsake of my Starless Beloved by GraySeeker
Rated: G • Summary: The Great War of Cybertron might have ended, but Crypt Master Dirge still knows that the Decepticons' fallen leader must be properly mourned, and buried. If only he'd leave Scavenger out of it.
Plague Theory by GraySeeker
Rated: G • Summary: Rumble seems to be immune to the mysterious plague that is sweeping the ranks of the Decepticons. Starscream, scientist that he is, wants to know why.
Rust, Dust, Lightning! by GraySeeker
Rated: Adult • Summary: Starscream has flown to Mars - and Skyfire - because his spark won't let him do otherwise, but he can't pretend he's still the mech Skyfire fell in love with. War has corroded everything he once was or ever believed in, yet lightning can sometimes reveal what rust conceals. Could a Martian dust-storm be just what he needs to catch a glimpse, once more, of his true metal?
The Beckoning Silence by GraySeeker
Rated: G •Summary: A not-so-mysterious force keeps pulling on Starscream, compelling him back to the Arctic. How long can he resist - and, more to the point, how much does he really want to?
The Deathtouch by GraySeeker
Rated: G • Summary: I wrote this for the October Transformers Flash Challenge. The goal of the challenge is to write four pieces of exactly 500 words about a favorite character. I chose Dirge. Given my penchant for epics, it's probably not surprising that my four-part series has turned into seven parts. Special thanks to Dark Star of Chaos for having divined the perfect names for three of my OCs, namely Rattlewing, Patchjob and Prism.
The Osculation Paradox by GraySeeker
Rated: G • Summary: A young Starscream contemplates his paradoxical views on kissing, epecially where a certain scientist is concerned.
The Wrong Side of Tracks by GraySeeker
Rated: G •Summary: Tracks takes a flight down memory lane in search of an errant Prime, and finds his past (and Rodimus) full of surprises. Tracks/Rodimus, Arcee/Springer (mentioned).
Under His Wing by GraySeeker
Rated: Adult • Summary: It took Skyfire no time at all to realize that he wasn't cut out to be a Decepticon. But now, several months later, he's starting to wonder if he's any better suited for life as an Autobot. Perhaps that has something to do with the Decepticons' strange inability to hold him prisoner for very long, and with the elusive, delta-winged shadow that keeps tracking him from the edges of space.
Untouchable by GraySeeker
Rated: G •Summary:
Contrary to popular belief, Dirge has no fondness for death. It's simply his gift.
