There are fanfictions where Soundwave helps Megatron see a different perspective on the Decepticon cause. For example, when Megatron is about to make a hasty and perhaps unwise decision, Soundwave steps in with his logical analysis. This not only showcases their bond but also how they complement each other in leadership and strategy.
One popular 'Megatron x Soundwave' fanfic could be 'Alliance in the Shadows'. It delves into their complex relationship within the Cybertronian lore, showing how they support each other in their quests. Another might be 'The Bond Beyond Command' which focuses on the unspoken understanding between them that goes deeper than just their hierarchical positions. There's also 'Harmony of the Two' which portrays their relationship in a more emotional and character - driven way.
Power dynamics is another theme. Megatron is the powerful leader, and Soundwave is his faithful subordinate. Fanfictions may play with this dynamic, showing how they interact and influence each other. For instance, there could be stories where Soundwave's unwavering support affects Megatron's decisions in a crucial way. There are also stories that explore the idea of what would happen if this dynamic were to shift in some way.
Another common theme is power dynamics. Megatron is the leader, and Soundwave is his subordinate, but in some fanfictions, they have a more equal relationship in certain aspects, like when it comes to strategic planning. Their different abilities and how they use them in relation to each other also play into this theme.
A good one often has well - developed characters. It should stay true to the personalities of Soundwave and Megatron as we know them from the Transformers franchise. For example, Soundwave's loyalty and Megatron's leadership and ambition.
Perhaps there could be a story where an ancient Cybertronian threat resurfaces. Megatron and Soundwave must team up with some unlikely allies, like a group of Autobots who also realize the severity of the situation. Throughout the story, Megatron and Soundwave would have to navigate their relationship with these former enemies while also dealing with the new threat. Their different personalities and motives would add depth to the story as they try to protect Cybertron together.
Perhaps a fanfiction where Soundwave gets damaged in a fight and Megatron has to make a difficult decision about whether to risk everything to save him. It could explore their loyalty to each other. Or a plot where they are betrayed by one of their own and they have to work together to expose the traitor.
There could be a story where they face a common enemy that is a threat to their entire race. Soundwave and Megatron have to put aside their differences and work together in a new way. This could involve Soundwave using his technological skills to create new defenses, while Megatron uses his leadership and combat abilities to lead the fight. Their bond could be tested and strengthened during this time.
Well, some fanfictions might focus on their loyalty to each other within the Decepticon ranks. For example, in a story I read, Megatron relied on Soundwave's unwavering support during a difficult battle against the Autobots. Soundwave's ability to gather intelligence was crucial for Megatron's strategies, and this formed the basis of their deep bond in the fic. It showed how they complemented each other in the context of the war.
One great fanfiction could be about Soundwave's unwavering loyalty to Megatron. It might explore how Soundwave uses his unique abilities to support Megatron in battles. For example, his ability to intercept communications could give Megatron an edge in warfare against the Autobots. Another could focus on their relationship before the war, perhaps showing how they came to trust each other and form the foundation of the Decepticon leadership.
