A story could revolve around Ravage and Soundwave exploring a new planet. They discover strange new forms of energy or technology. Ravage is eager to investigate up close while Soundwave is more cautious. Their different approaches lead to some tense moments but also some great discoveries. As they interact with the new environment, they also learn more about each other and their own capabilities.
In fanfiction, Ravage can be seen as the 'eyes and ears' on the ground for Soundwave. His animal - like form gives him an advantage in certain terrains and situations. He's not just a weapon but also a source of information. Soundwave, with his iconic voice and vast knowledge of technology, is the brains behind many operations. Their characteristics work well together, as Ravage's physicality complements Soundwave's more cerebral nature.
Perhaps there's a situation where Cliffjumper is captured by the Decepticons, and Soundwave is assigned to guard him. Over time, they start to have conversations that make them see each other in a new light. Cliffjumper might learn about Soundwave's motives that are not entirely evil, and Soundwave might start to respect Cliffjumper's courage. This could lead to a change in their relationship and potentially even an alliance of sorts.
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.
One plot idea could be that Soundwave and Airachnid are on a mission together and they start to develop a grudging respect for each other's skills. As they face various challenges, this respect slowly turns into an unexpected friendship. Another could be that they are both after the same powerful artifact. At first they are rivals, but then they realize they can achieve more by teaming up. And finally, they might be caught in a situation where they have to protect each other from a common enemy, which makes them see each other in a new light.
Some fanfiction might focus on Ravage's origin story. How he was created, his early days in the Decepticon ranks. Writers could also explore Ravage's relationship with other Decepticon cassettes. For example, a story about a rivalry between Ravage and another cassette - like character. Or a story where Ravage is on a mission to retrieve a powerful artifact, and along the way, he meets various Transformers and has to make difficult choices.
One interesting story could be about Soundwave's secret missions. He might be sent on a mission to retrieve a powerful artifact. Along the way, he encounters unexpected allies and enemies, and has to use his unique abilities to outwit them all.
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.
A fanfiction could focus on a time when Megatron and Soundwave are separated. Maybe Megatron has been captured by the Autobots, and Soundwave is left to lead the Decepticons in his absence. Soundwave, who is not used to being in the spotlight, has to make difficult decisions. He has to figure out how to rescue Megatron without sacrificing too many of their troops. Meanwhile, Megatron is facing his own challenges in captivity, perhaps having to deal with Optimus Prime's attempts to make him see the error of his ways. This situation could create a lot of tension and drama in the fanfiction.
In some fanfictions, Female Soundwave could be involved in complex relationships within the Transformers universe. Maybe she has a special bond with other Autobots or Decepticons. She could be a double - agent, using her charm and intelligence to deceive the other side, which adds a lot of drama and intrigue to the story.
One idea could be that Soundwave is somehow infected by a symbiote, and it changes his abilities. Maybe he can now communicate in a different way or has enhanced stealth capabilities.
