A short story with Skyfire and Starscream...

Lines

[G1] Sometimes you need a reminder that some lines should not be crossed… especially if your name is Starscream. Inspired by the fanart "Keeping up with Old Friends" by CHI.

Wow, this is one of those fics that cut you to the bone. Granted, Skyfire as a killer takes suspension of disbelief, but you did a good job towards making it work. Your choice to set it after "Countdown to Extinction" certainly helped with that - it would take something like trying to blow up the Earth and all its inhabitants to make Skyfire do such a thing (I think). Which, of course, is why the events of "Countdown to Extinction" will be one of the things I'll have to think hardest about when I'll get down to writing my Skyfire AU fic. (But I shouldn't babble about my fic projects while I'm replying to your fic, eh?)

Starscream has quite a lot of self-insight (for Starscream, I mean) in this fic, but eh - I guess after a shake-up like this...

Just to complicate things, there's two layers of self-insight--Starscream is recalling all this 20 years later, after he's died and returned. He's remembering what he thought then, but the interpretation is colored by the somewhat wiser personality that came back from the dead.
