Story Title: In the Dust
Fandom: Transformers Generation One
Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/33723490
Summary: An Autobot team is sent to an abandoned Senate research station to retrieve information. The mission goes off without a hitch, but soon it starts to feel as if data wasn't the only thing they brought back with them…
Warnings: Trauma, PTSD
Characters: Sideswipe, Sunstreaker, Jazz, Trailbreaker, Mirage
Pairings: N/A
When I Started: This was started back in early 2020.
How I Lost My Shit: This was intended as a piece for a zine, though it didn't wind up in one. Instead, it got set aside for another zine piece (which springboarded off this one), and some challenges, and…
How I Finished My Shit: Honestly wasn't sure I would: it took a bit of work to get it up above the minimum limit. Then, when I did, I realized that roughly 1/3 of it wasn't working, so I had to edit it heavily and rewrite the ending into one that makes much more sense. I'd been worried I wouldn't be able to get it done but severe editing turned out to be what actually made it possible.
