A Royal Navy midshipman's dirk of the early 19th century, by Salter, Sword Cutler, 35 Strand, London (Bonhams).
But to return to my uniform. I had arrayed myself in it; my dirk was belted round my waist; a cocked-hat, of an enormous size, stuck on my head; and, being perfectly satisfied with my own appearance at the last survey which I had made in the glass, I first rang for the chambermaid, under pretence of telling her to make my room tidy, but, in reality, that she might admire and compliment me, which she very wisely did; and I was fool enough to give her half a crown and a kiss, for I felt myself quite a man.
— Frederick Marryat, The Naval Officer (Frank Mildmay)

TFA Sidearm - Live a Little
(Short story below the read me/keep reading.)
"You can live a little, you know. Like you used to."
That's what she said.
Sideswipe rolled his eyes as he watched Strongarm walk along the edge of the rooftop of the building from where he sat. It was just the two of them, thanking Primus for Cheetor taking the new students (Nightbeat, Siren and Hosehead) out on their last night patrol. Last thing he wants is distractions from three obnoxious teens and a officer that acts like a teen.
The two Autobots were out in one of Iacon's most beautiful twilight nights, where the stars shined at their brightest and the faintest peak of magenta could be seen. It was like this night came as a tangible whisper to the millions of lights in the sky.
It reminded Sideswipe of the times in his younger days, where he would try and pull the greatest stunt ever on special nights like this.
"Care to join me?"
He looked up to see Strongarm staring at him with a simple, yet inviting smile.
He just sighs. "Strongarm, I…I know things have been rocky since your return, and I don't think I'll have enough to say for-"
"Sideswipe, I know things have changed." She looked at him, not keeping her attention on where she's going anymore. "I changed, you changed. But is that really stopping us? We need to look forward to-"
Her foot didn't register its calculation when it came down slightly off-kilter on the edge and she felt her weight shift more to the right where, below her, a hard, metal pavement awaited.
But before anything could happen, a firm but gentle arm wrapped itself around her, a hand pressed firmly on her waist as she was pilled towards the mech that saved her.
Sideswipe felt his body go into overdrive. 30,000 stellar cycles on the force will do that. As soon as he saw Strongarm's body falter in one way, his instincts reacted and he pulled her away from the roof's edge, wrapping his arm protectively around her and brought her closer to his frame.
The two locked optics on each other for a long time, neither one making a move. Then Strongarm gave a small grin, one Sideswipe missed to the pits and back.
"Want to dance?"
He blinked. Dance? Is she fragging with me?! She could have died and yet here she was, acting like it never happened and going about it like normal.
Sideswipe looked at her, deadpanned. "You can't be serious."
She grinned more. "And what if I'm not?"
This femme, I swear… While he wouldn't say it, he missed how the two of them would be out at night, her chasing him in the darkest hours, just enjoying the sounds of their roaring engines.
He just pulled her closer, their bright optics illuminating their faces as he spoke sternly: "Let's see if you can keep up."
She smiles. "I plan to~"
(God, this felt like forever! I wanted to do a TFA Sidearm piece for a while. And I think TFA Strongarm might get a future ref sheet from me [and she might get a different look, not sure yet]. And this maybe just be an excuse to draw TFA Sideswipe as well, cause….well, Sideswipe is my favorite. The background was haphazardly put together.
Also, TFA Strongarm is a bit taller than TFA Sideswipe, thanks to some friends of mine on Discord for planting that idea in my head.
And the dialogue is something that I wanted to add. It may or may not be related to a fic I'm planning on making. We'll see.)

Second chapter of ,, Better than that" is already out!
-I wrote down on a piece of paper the number of that girl you were mumbling about yesterday.-Sunny said, as if no fight had happened between them- You really should give back that hair pin; it looks expensive. If I were her, I would like to get it back.
Sideswipe rolled his eyes and made a sour face. His mood was already ruined. When Sunstreaker turned his back at him Sides stuck his tongue out , Bob watched this scene unfold and, in a gesture of incredible devotion and defense barked at his owner's brother,
- Ah, yes, I forgot to say goodbye to you.- Said owner in his ignorance, misinterpreted the pet's behavior. Already dressed and ready to go, he approached the dog and stroked his head with affection.- Be a good puppy ok bobby-boy? That goes for you too, Sides. Don't get into any trouble while I'm gone.
When Sunny finally stepped through the door and the door closed behind him with a soft click, brunette looked at the dog, who was lying peacefully in his bed as if nothing had happened.
-You are a snitch, you know that? -The man accused the animal it ignored his words. Bob only liked and lisened to Sunstreaker and barely tolerated Sideswipe - but you can tell your owner that I'll call this nasty woman; maybe she'll get annoyed and humor me for a bit.
