Sideswipe wakes up and goes about his day, not realizing that in a few hours everything will change when he's killed in battle. And then he wakes up again, thinking it was all just a bad dream. Except he dies again. And wakes up again. And again and again and again...

After the events of Unicron, Starscream had come to terms with his own death, ready to spend the rest of eternity as part of Bumblebee’s mind as he serves as the Cybertronian representative of the Galactic Council. However, once Bumblebee starts to suffer from processor degradation as a result of his connection to Starscream, he undergoes a procedure to have Starscream removed from his head and placed into a newly forged protoform to be raised in an advanced growth chamber.
Now years later, Starscream awakens to a new Cybertron, one where the planet is undergoing a new age of peace and prosperity thanks to Windblade’s reign as ruler. However, this peace is threatened when a Cybertronian is murdered by an unknown individual with the intent to restart the Decepticon movement. Starscream, Windblade, Bumblebee, and others must work together if they wish to keep Cybertron from falling back into disarray, made even worse when news of Starscream’s “revival” becomes public.
And not to mention the feelings growing between Starscream and Windblade...

It’s a complete accident. Really. First Aid didn’t mean to invent wireless interfacing, he really didn’t. He didn’t even tell Ratchet he’d done it, because he really didn’t think it would work.
And Defensor and Superion definitely didn’t mean to be so loud when they tested it out that they attracted the attention of Bruticus.
And it wasn’t like anyone could have foreseen that the Combaticons wouldn’t attack, but would instead go back to the Decepticons and demand that Soundwave replicate the technology, stat, and make sure every Decepticon on Earth had access to it. Even less that Megatron would think it was a brilliant idea.
At least, when the rest of the Autobots finally find out what’s going on, they’re not slow to adapt.They’re certainly not slow to reconnect, so to say, especially with lovers from across faction lines- and maybe turn the tables a bit.
Or: the story about how First Aid made a massive technological breakthrough without meaning to, how Soundwave fooled the human satellites into thinking interfacing signals were foreign code, and how Jazz, master of the Autobot Kama Sutra, found the right signal to end the war.
