sticking your thorn in if that’s what you need by golden_bugging

Summary
Hurting each other wasn’t anything novel to them, but he knew Optimus needed an incentive, an assurance that this was what he wanted, and even then Megatron had to rake at his patience, jab at his nerves until Optimus scorched out of him whatever guilt remained and shoved Megatron into the ground, pounding him with the feral crudeness of years of bottled-up frustrations. It was so good when he let himself go like that; oftentimes he didn’t require anything else to overload. Just seeing Optimus fall into instinct, repurposing all that strength into commanding every inch of Megatron’s frame could send his systems crashing into white-hot bliss. He needed more.

Summary
He prided himself on his self-control, forever chewing on metaphorical shards to see how much he could swallow and spitting them out right before they cut open his throat. But that often changed when it came to Prime. There was something that just made him want to let all hell break loose from the reins of his spark, to see it reflected in those electrifying cyan optics and dragged out in equal measure from his rival. Be it in battle, banter or, well, whatever semblance of berth their exchange had been, he would take and take and take, with all its gashes, anything- everything his enemy was and all that he painted himself not to be.
And oh, what Optimus could be.
~~~
Neither of them walked away from that prison cell unaffected, and going back to how things were seems to become more and more unlikely as another threat arises.

Summary
It seemed so far away and though time was said to heal, loss was what remained when everything else didn’t.

Summary
A zap of misaligned data split his helm and he groaned, optics flickering. “I could guess why I’m here, but it would only be true if you were on the outside of this cell. Unless you came here to mock me,” he shifted with a rattle of chains and looked at Megatron, “or put the final nail in my coffin.”
“I see that your logic matrix is starting to warm up,” he said, a sly edge to his lips. “Maybe you will reach more than one byte while we’re here. Then you might be able to compute your demise as it happens.”
“True to your flatteries as always,” Optimus sighed. “So be it.”
~~~
Optimus wakes up imprisoned and with… less dignified ways of escape. As luck would have it, Megatron is also there to witness it all and learn a hidden truth about his enemy. How the Decepticon will use that truth is not something Optimus could have prepared for. But he works it out – eventually.

Summary
“Come on, Dee,” a blue hand curled around D-16’s own, gently tugging it away from his face, “a few drinks and you’ll loosen that attitude. Think about it. We only get four days off once a cycle. We deserve this break. And, really, don’t you want to know what Engex feels like?” Orion was outright beaming with excitement, fans whirring to a higher but steady degree, as he fell deeper into his spirited speech.
~~~
An outing at a bar goes wrong when Orion falls into a difficult disposition. Dee knows that helping him would mean crossing a line between them, after which things won’t be the same.
