Aircee

Aileron x Arcee is the femslash ship between Aileron and Arcee from the Transformers fandom.

Canon
Arcee is a violent warrior that even acted as an assassin in the past, but when she meets Aileron she has calmed down and tried her best to be an Autobot. At first, Arcee is not that close with Aileron, as she is dealing with the possible loss of someone close to her who is in a coma. She even lashes out at Aileron when she pays a visit to the medical bay, to try and comfort Arcee. Arcee tells her she's been alone for years, that she doesn't have any friends, because everyone thinks she's crazy. Aileron quietly replies that she doesn't think so.

When Sideswipe finally passes away, Aileron goes to Arcee on the deck of Metrotitan, to ask her if she's ok. Arcee opens her heart to Aileron and tells her that she thinks maybe Sideswipe felt better when he died than when he lived. Aileron lends her ear and listens to Arcee's feelings intently. She also offers her condolences and mentions that, according to the Way of Flame, all Sparks would be reincarnated. However, Arcee dismisses her beliefs since she thinks Sideswipe will live on her memories. When Aileron asks Arcee to not make fun of her beliefs, she apologizes and tells her that she didn't mean to, and just that she was wondering what it would be like if everyone she and Sideswipe had killed came back to life. Aileron respects her and asks her if she wants to be left alone. However, Arcee asks her to stay with her as the two of them look at the stars together and say a final farewell to Sideswipe.

As their relationship progresses, after a particular battle where Aileron saves Arcee's life, they find themselves quite in love with one another, and Arcee kisses Aileron as a way to say "thank you" to her. They would end up kissing passionately at least 3 times in the climax. On the night before Unicron's arrival, Aileron takes a moment to embrace Arcee, and in a later conversation with Optimus Prime, Arcee says that her new love means that she now has something to lose if Unicron won. So Arcee's new love for Aileron motivates her to help save the Universe. And when they do finally confront Unicron, Aileron rescues Arcee, alongside Bumblebee, from Unicron's collapsing mass, and the trio make a safe landing on Earth's Moon. There, the two lovers joyfully reunite.

Fanon
Aileron x Arcee is a very rare pair in the Transformers fandom. However, it's a very loved queer couple. And it's one of the most popular lesbian ships in the Transformers fandom, since the series doesn't have that many lesbian couples. Fans of the ship often referred to them as "badass lesbians." The ship currently has only 20+ works in AO3.
