Title: Trinket
Characters: Megatron, Skyfire, Starscream (mentioned only, but key to the story nonetheless)
Verse: G1
Wordcount: 2,300ish
Rating: PG
Contains: Angst, mainly. And maybe a few sacred cow burgers. Om nom nom. ^_^
Summary: Starscream is not the mech Skyfire remembers. Skyfire decides to get revenge on Megatron for changing his old friend into a ruthless, amoral war machine. But confronting Megatron always has a price -- and sometimes that price is learning the truth.
A/N: I've always been a little uncomfortable with Fire in the Sky. I don't dislike Skyfire, but I find Starscream's fondness for him strange, as Starscream is very rarely shown expressing fondness for anyone but himself (and possibly for Megatron, if you take their relationship to be mutually twistedly respectful amidst the hatred. Which I do.) I'm never sure quite how his friendship with Skyfire is supposed to coexist with the very different relationship he has with Megatron. This is an attempt to delve into that... though as a consequence it's pretty different from the usual fics about Starscream and Skyfire, in ways some people probably won't like.
