Corps à Corps
Fandom: Transformers
Rating: pg
(Physical violence, including jostling/brutal fencing during a youth fencing match; drinking; vague discussion of dysfunctional and abusive relationships; kissing; panic attacks; confused (and largely undiscussed) power dynamics; and lots of poor coping mechanisms and bad anger management. Kind of on the edge between pg and teen for me.)
Relationships/Characters: Starscream/Wheeljack, past Megatron/Starscream, Sideswipe, Prowl, Tarn, Stageflight (OC)
Wordcount: 11600ish
Summary:

"I don't think it's very respectful," said Sideswipe. "Treating Screamer like he's made of glass."

Wheeljack's coaching a youth Grand Prix, while Starscream is in a completely different venue coaching a senior event. Everyone talks to Wheeljack about Starscream anyway. Everyone.

(Part four of the Transformers Fencing AU.)

Read it on the AO3 or start the series with the first fic!

It was very weird and cathartic to write this fic as I drove home from fencing twice a week. One more in this series, I think, but gotta do the Yuletide thing first.
