My instant thought is Kiyoko_Michi's two fics: Tangled Destiny and Crossroads. Both are kind of role swap AUs for G1 in different contexts.
Tangled Destiny by Kiyoko_Michi
Fate is a fickle thing. Sometimes, all it takes is a little push, and everything changes. Skyfire didn't crash in the storm- Starscream did. The war continues on.
SkyStar | G1 | T | Complete | 140k+ | 31/31
Mainly Skyfire's point of view and very interesting take on how he would have handled the build up to the war and being in Starscream's role.
Crossroads by Kiyoko_Michi
After decavorns under the ice, Skyfire wakes up to a very different universe and struggles to survive in a war he doesn't understand. Alone. Meanwhile, in the Autobot ship, a certain Seeker is recovering from his own stasis... (An AU in which both Explorers crash in the storm and are discovered by different factions. Based on a prompt by officialbumblebee)
SkyStar | G1 | T | Complete | 85k+ | 87/87
This is literally one of my favorite G1 SkyStar fics and the first one I had ever read. The point of view switches between Starscream and Skyfire each chapter.
Baird Crevan's SkyStar/JetStar fics are also excellent.
Exchanging Fire by Baird Crevan (@bairdcrevan)
Starscream discovers that Jetfire is actually from a parallel universe that is a mirror opposite of his own. He decides to enlist help from the mirror dimension to take him down and bring his Skyfire home, only the shuttle is reluctant to leave. Starscream x Skyfire, former Starscream x SGJetfire, SGJetfire x SGStarscream.
SkyStar/JetStar, StarStar | WFC & SG | M | Complete | 54k+ | 20/20
This one is definitely a bit darker than the other two so far given it is WFC Trilogy AND Shattered Glass also has some Starscream/SG!Starscream if that isn't your cup of tea. Overall I really enjoyed it though.
All's Well That Ends Well by Baird Crevan (@bairdcrevan)
The war is coming to an end but Starscream is being an aft about it. He threatens to start the war up again, so Megatron arranges to have him conjunxed to an Autobot to undermine his power. Of course, falling (back) in love with the Autobot would be ridiculous. Right?
SkyStar | G1 | E | Complete | 21k+ | 15/15
I can't not mention the arranged marriage SkyStar. It is a requirement.
skystar on earth Series by fascinationex (@cardio-vore)
An Au where Starscream and Skyfire stay on Earth the entire time and have no idea about the war until it lands there.
SkyStar | G1 | G-E | Ongoing | 12k+ | 6 Works
An Attraction to Shiny Things (And Shuttles) by ambustested (@ambustested)
When Skywarp is framed for a murder he didn't commit, Starscream decides the only way to prove his trinemate's innocence is to go undercover looking for evidence to exonerate him- by working as a cat burglar for the biggest underground rare metal/gem ring in Cybertron. His next hit is his largest, Skyfire of Altihex, famed geologist who often donates his findings to museums all across Iacon and is rumored to have an extensive private collection.
SkyStar | T | Complete | 17k+ | 3/3
Great addition from an author I just enjoy in general. And it is a Big Bang and has fantastic art from @starsh0ck.

I wonder what if they talked about Starscream
Skyfire: He’s a talented scientist, and we were…
Jetfire: Hes evil! He manic hurt my brother!
Jetstorm: That’s true, hes insane brother.
Skyfire*💦
Skyfire would have no idea how to comfort these little jets🥹

"Oh, Skyfire. And here I thought you enjoyed my company."
I'm all for Starscream's ghost checking in to torment poor Skyfire periodically - sort of little breaks in between all the possessions and wreaking havoc across the galaxy.
Gotta pester your ex even after the divorce AND death, right?
