Four Songs
Sep. 17th, 2009 10:04 pmTitle: Four Songs Samuel Witwicky Heard From Bumblebee... and One That He Didn't
Rating: PG-13 for a few curses, Cybertronian and human.
Disclaimer: Absolutely, positively not mine.
Warnings: Spoilers for RotF, but not the books or comics, most of which I haven't read and will cheerfully ignore. Slight AU from the very end of RotF. Possibly a song fic, but I blame Bumblebee for that. Oh, and Sam rambles a bit. Nothing new there.
Summary: Songs took on a whole new meaning for Sam after meeting Bumblebee. Four times it was intended for him – and one time it wasn't. Ca. 6200 words.
A/N: Several people have suggested a Sam and 'Bee set, but it took a while for the bunny to bite and get even a vague grasp on 'Bee's voice. But I finally managed... and I'll leave it to the reader to decide if I succeeded. Sometime, somewhere a while back – possibly on LJ – I saw someone comment in regards to songs that 'Riding With Private Malone' struck them as something Will might sing to Ironhide. I liked the idea and blatantly, uh, borrowed it, so if it was you/you know who it was, let me know so I can credit where credit is due. Also, I sort of cheated a bit – the song in the third part of this set isn't technically a song but spoken word, but I figured eh, it's on the radio, that makes it fair game.
Set in the same AU 'verse as the rest of the Four fics, but they're not really needed for background information and this can be read as a stand-alone just fine. The fifth section is an epilogue of sorts to the Sydney mission that showed up in Four Lives, Four Times, and Four Targets.
