Hi Revel! My family is in Disney World to watch our sparkling march down Main Street with his high school school's band. It's also our 20th anniversary. Could you please do a scenario where Starscream, Soundwave, and Megatron (and reader) take the sparkling to Disney? Thanks in advance!

That’s so awesome that he gets to play at Disney and happy anniversary! I hope you guys have so much fun! If you get a chance, Cosmic Rewind is amazing and the Nine Dragons in Epcot has awesome duck boa buns as an appetizer! (Disney is my jam)

Vacation

Starscream x Reader, Soundwave x Reader, Megatron x Reader

• Fingers tightening on the twins’s hands to keep them from trying to dart into the parade route, you force yourself to relax. Because you’ve got their actual hands and Uncle Shockwave swore he had all the bugs worked out. Shockwave’s improved avatars less uncanny valley at least as they superimpose over their actual bodies, so people aren’t actively avoiding your family. Including your three mass displaced mates. Head turning to find Megs with your daughter on his shoulders screaming demands for a Mickey balloon even though you know she’s going to immediately let go of it and scream even louder. Your oldest son clinging to Soundwave’s hand, eyes wide at the crowd, but calm as long as his sire has him. And it’s normal in a way that almost hurts because you didn’t think you could actually have this. Breath catching as one of the twins points and bounces on his peds, you smile.

• Noisy and crowded with humans, he has to keep his wings tucked close to keep a human from brushing against one and realizing there’s something there they can’t see. But you’re happy, crouching to point out costumed humans to the twins. And he can put up with a lot if it means you’re happy. Including Shockwave just following your little group around since you’d given up and started telling the younglings he’s their uncle. Because this has to be the most messed up trine in existence.

• Laughing as his daughter kicks her little peds against him, momentarily distracted from her demands by a brightly colored float. And she rests her chin on top of his helm, entranced by the parade. Reaching up, Megatron cups his hand against her side when she leans back slightly, spotting a human child in a frilly little princess costume. Knows it’s coming even before she points, crying that she’s a princess and she wants it. “Of course, little spark.”

• Venting hearing Megatron promising their daughter everything she wants without hesitation, Soundwave understands the impulse. They all thought they would be it, that their race would die out and fade away. Still can’t believe the next generation is real. And he bends, lifting his son into his arms so the youngling can see better. Rumbling soothingly when his son leans his head against his chassis, watching the parade.

• Smiling when Starscream crouches, tugging you into him and brushing a kiss against your temple, you feel loved. Watching him snagging the twins to make them squeal and straightening with them, you feel oddly light watching your little family. And Shockwave catches your eye, just staring like he always does and you offer him a hesitant smile before leaning into Starscream while he balances the twins on his shoulders so they can see better.

One Last Wish

Another wavewave fanfic by the one and only PaxArsenal! This is just the headcanon I have for TFP, and I apologize for the inconsistent storytelling if it isn't up to canon Transformers lore. I digress, enjoy this fanfic!

Conjunx Ritus...

1. The Act of Intimacy

This depends heavily on the couple.  The couple performs an intimate act such as holding hands, possibly a sensual massage, or cleaning one another, the options are endless.

2. Act of Disclosure

This can be a story about anything, so long as it tells your partner what makes you–you.  For some it’s the story of their birth, for others, it might be how they became the leader of their faction by getting into a bar fight, for some it might be revealing just how guilty they feel for joining their faction in the first place.

3. Act of Profference

This is a gift. The ritual’s instigator gives the other a gift, usually catered to the potential Conjunx. 

4. Act of Devotion

The entire ceremony is an act of devotion for the one who started the ritual: it is the other's turn to perform an action that shows he too loves his potential Conjunx.

Once the 4 acts of kindness have been performed and accepted the pair are officially bonded as Conjunx Endura.

~~~

One Final Wish

The war was over. 

For the past million years, the Great War waged and never shuttered. In a time like this, it’s limited. Both Autobots and Decepticons saw it all; Megatron finally sacrificed his crown to Optimus Prime, who bowed with respect and pity for the Kaon gladiator. While both leaders recoiled their woes and sorrows at the losses, Shockwave could only turn to Soundwave. His sleek HUD stood cracked among fellow Decepticons, his frame barely breathing. Transformers need no concept of oxygen to respire, yet Soundwave struggled to get his engines running. It was the end. The Decepticons surrendered; they had surrendered. He was exhausted; everyone was exhausted. Still, Soundwave held high; his back straightened like a regal to an audience, his slender arms relaxed and helm in a proper position. In Shockwave’s eye, Soundwave always knew how to present himself. That’s what a former senator does best. 

Back at their home, the Autobots paraded all over Cybertron. Their smiles and laughs reciprocated towards the crowd as mechs and femmes cheered for their victory. Little by little, the planet rebuilt itself, and more Cybertronians returned to their home; buildings resurrected, and bots buried their dead. What was a celebration meant an embarrassment to the Decepticons. Each officer sat in their cells with Energon-charged cuffs. Inadequate Energon supplied, and occasionally, the guards failed to deliver sustenance. Only Optimus Prime was allowed as a visitor, sharing nostalgic moments with Megatron about days gone by. Starscream paced back and forth as he muttered words of self-encouragement and spite towards his leaders, much to a nervous wreck like himself. Megatron sat on the rusting berth with his red optics closed, Optimus talking about who knows what. However, Shockwave paid no attention to his former leader. Another mech in mind, his gun arm tapped his right wall. How unfortunate for his cell to be facing Megatron and Starscream. A quiet knock on the other wall told him Soundwave was still responsive. 

“Are you perhaps still on lord Megatron’s vow of silence?” Shockwave asked.

“... Negative: He isn’t our lord anymore,” Soundwave answered, his voice laced with a silver tongue, “So why call him that moniker.”  

Unknowingly, Shockwave grew facilitated by Soundwave’s authentic voice. Not the recordings of Optimus Prime’s interrogations, not Megatron's constant harangues and meeting audios, just his voice. Something Shockwave looked forward to for centuries. “Maybe I have gotten acquainted with it. With millions of cycles gone and past, it’s logical reasoning.” He finally articulated to his comrade. Soft lulls tickled Shockwave’s fins; Lazorbeak had awoken. 

“Is that minibot alright?” Shockwave questioned again, hoping to continue the conversation. He leaned on the enclosed walls, rusting and dull from improper hygiene and neglect. Space was tight, yet the scientist made do.

Soundwave replied bluntly, “He’s alright.” Silence caved into the pair. Lazorbeak’s inconsistent squeaks and wings clicking suited as tools to smother the pain-staking rings of tension and animosity. The minibot recoiled within Soundwave’s frame, his thin digits trying to calm it down. 

“You know you can stop that,” The ex-communications officer directly stated, “There’s no use in small talk. We are all going to be offline.”

Shockwave couldn’t come up with another word. He knew Soundwave was right. Instead, he slowly slid to the dusty ground and sighed, “... Is that so?” 

Within a few minutes, Soundwave knocked again, but this time, he commed Shockwave through his visor: At least I can be offlined with you.

~~~

Reconciliation wasn’t an option for the losers. All former Decepticon officers knelt before the renewed High Council. With tight cuffs around their servos and high security, nothing could go wrong. They made sure of that. The judge was an elderly Transformer with millennia ahead of him. He struck on the metal gavel once the mass settled down. As he cleared his voicebox, his olden optics scanned through the digital tablet, “By decree, former warlord Megatron shall stand conducted via public execution for his crimes against Cybertron. That goes for his associates, former senator Soundwave, ex-High Council scientist Shockwave, and Decepticon captain Starscream. Except for ex-Deception Medic Knockout, he will receive punishment by another method.” Every Cybertronian darted to Knockout, who nervously ducked under the podium seat.

Starscream twitched yet kept silent after Elite Guards repositioned their guns to his shaking helm. As if it wasn’t vibrating enough, it could have removed some bolts by now. Soundwave and Megatron said nothing. They knelt before the jury and accepted their fate. The judge continued, “For better or worse, all charges remain true. Our Autobot representative wishes to speak.”

Optimus Prime uncovered from the shadows and strode towards his podium. Each stride was bold and confident, something Shockwave had seen Megatron do. It was remarkable what chiefs could be and influence. Orion Pax to Optimus Prime, and Megatrous to Megatron. The Empurata con’s spark yanked and jerked; it felt familiar yet so ancient. By the Allspark, Primus did grant individuals as saints while traitors martyrs. 

Optimus’s voice boomed throughout the courtroom. “Mechs and Femmes, as we gather here to address the Decepticon problem, I want to make some adjustments. These are criminals, yes. But I wish to give them a last desire before they part.” Some bots booed and argued against his idea, yet he held on. “It’s only befitting since we aren’t like them.” His blue optics stared into Megatron as the ex-warlord shifted away disgusted.

Still, Megatron wished for a better system; Starscream’s request was immediately rejected. Soundwave stood muted amidst the proceeding. The purple bot didn’t ask for anything. Coincidentally, it gave Shockwave a chance to speak. 

“May I ask for one proposal?” Shockwave confidently asked. Prime let him continue. 

“I would like to perform a Conjunx Ritus.” The jury gasped. What did that Empurata freak say? A Conjunx Ritus? With who? Soundwave’s helm immediately whipped toward Shockwave as Starscream barely caught his laugh between his servo. Megatron darted bullets at him, red optics narrowing with a snarl, “What are you doing?” He hissed. The Prime’s mouth fell agape at the unusual request, and they could hear that cranky medic shout profanities against Primus's vain. Shockwave didn’t look at him, and his audibles fell into deaf tones, instead finding his gaze on Optimus Prime. “Please, Prime, it’s one final wish.” 

Gesturing to Soundwave, he knelt on one knee before Soundwave as he held up his cuffed arms. “Soundwave… With our sparks still alight…Would you be my Conjunx Endura…?”

Soundwave sat there, emotionless and conflicted–dumbfounded. His still cracked HUD mask reflected onto Shockwave’s crimson one. With one shaky outstretched limb, he held onto Shockwave’s, never letting go of those same sharp servos that once carried him during a stressful night on the Nemesis. Those same servos that caressed his crown when they interfaced. The same ones that he loved so much, belonging to that societal outcast hailed from Kalis. As unstable as his voice, Soundwave’s helm titled down as a gleam flashed away from his blurry visor screen. 

“Proposal: Accepted.”

“Let our damnation be our union.”

~~~

Soundwave and Shockwave requested to be executed first. They wanted Megatron and Starscream to observe their coalition for the final time. The Conjunx Ritus traditions remain the same; four acts of kindness shall be performed and accepted before the pair are officially bonded mates. Such acts include the act of intimacy, disclosure, profference, and devotion. 

If the violet mech could frown, he would’ve frowned the deepest, even more profound than Megatron’s awful organic-piranha scowl. The thought of being intimate in a public space felt unnecessary–illogical in his own words. Nonetheless, the ceremony must persist in the optics of the populace. 

Soundwave sneakily unlocked his compartment as purple tentacles laced Shockwave’s gun arm like ribbons. 

Oh. Intimacy completed.

In the second part of the ritual, the act of disclosure, Soundwave told Shockwave of his journey to become a senator (both were senators at some vorns ago), his obstacles and achievements, his wins and losses, and his eventual downfall. Once it was Shockwave’s turn, he immediately tapped his digits impatiently. 

Shockwave laid his fins low, “The story… of my Empurata…” 

“Are you ashamed?” Soundwave whispered. 

He chuckled, “No, if not, I wouldn’t have met you.”

The third part of the ceremony is an act of Profference. A predacon optic laid within Shockwave’s palm. Soundwave titled his helm amusingly. “As much as I dedicated my time to Project Predacon, I’d have wished to dedicate mine to you.” How fitting it was. Shockwave panicked last minute on that gift. There was absolutely nothing on this wasteland to behold a mech so close to regality or godhood, by Shockwave’s logic. Still, Soundwave accepted and caressed it gently between his fingers. Shockwave’s fins fluttered satisfied.

Fourth and last was the act of Devotion. Shockwave grew curious on this part. What did Soundwave have in mind for his contribution? Applying logic wouldn’t wither the mystery of surprises. The audience held their breath as Soundwave stood in silence. At last, the bot retrieved something that even his partner would dilate and dim his optic on. 

“Lazorbeak…” Shockwave gasped, feathery claw reaching for the minibot to find it limp and unresponsive, devoid of a spark. 

“We… talked about it,” Soundwave slowly explained. “He would rather stay loyal than live without my protection and company.” He paused. “You always had a nick for exotic inventions and experiments. May we see that… another time. Lazorbeak wants to see.”

The Empurata had no words. “Do you perhaps believe in the afterlife or some kind of reincarnation those organics revere?”

“Negative: I suppose so. No logic in Cybertron would decode that unless we try to see it.”

Shockwave chuckled, a mere light in his red optic when his future sparkmate used his infamous line, “Then let’s see to that… that one last experimentation.”

The bronze bells hammered in the background. No spectator to cheer, no energon to toast high in the air, no ‘congratulations’ or ‘well done’. Just a clearing over the destruction of their planet to unify their eternal coalition. What seemed to be seconds or minutes before the officiant cleared his throat.

“I pronounce you to you today as Sparkmates…” 

Once the Conjunx Ritus was over, Soundwave rested his crown on Shockwave’s optic as he sighed. His comrade… No, Conjunx Endura held his helm to look at him with the exact gaze he had given all those years ago. The other returned the gesture and stared lovely into his one optic, his servos hovering on Shockwave’s spark chamber. The spark hammered and didn’t stop. He couldn’t feel it, yet he understood he would’ve called it love.

“I love you, Shockwave.”

“I love you too, my Soundwave.”

“... Affirmative: See you on the other side.” 

The Elite Guards released their ammunition as Soundwave and Shockwave’s frames fell onto the ground, lifeless as energon poured out of their wounds. Together, their sparks diminished at the same time. On the outskirts of the city, they laid their bodies side by side as Cybertron’s dust buried them. Although their carcasses may fade away, their consciousness and spark are still ablaze by their one final wish.

[pauk-di]

Hello! Since I first saw your art for this AU my mind has been making up these headcanons (or rather, behold, a ramble and delusions):

- Regarding that drawing of older(?) D-16 at the party surrounded by "beautiful mechs", given what we know of Optimus, I don't think that he would frequent the parties, and even try and avoid going to them whenever he can (if they want to show "the champions" I'm sure his manager would love to parade him there); it wouldn't be strange for him to use that free time to visit Ratchet or spend time with his son. I imagine that D-16 at first wouldn't be all to happy to attend those but, I imagine that after a while his ego would be quite pleased to see so many beautiful and "shinny" mecha throwing themselves at him. (The encouragement from other gladiators to take lovers would be very in character) ((I'm sorry, I just, saw that post and my mind went 👀!!!!!))

- I'm sorry if you already said something about this, but I have an idea for our fav Soundwave; one involves D-16 trying to befriend the weird-and very intimidating- looking new guy, his reasoning is that no one that cares so much for their cassettes can be a truly cruel person. Soundwave, meanwhile, is baffled over this timid miner that is somehow still alive, and over the gladiator from Iacon, that is stern but always has a kind smile. (I headcanon so hard that Ravage will find the perfect lap to nap in Steelton)

- Speaking of Steelton, one of the reasons he is so distrustful of D-16 -and literally everybody else- is because he may be young, but he's not stupid; he has seen mechs try and get cozy with his Carrier, play the "oh but I love you/I trust you!" card just to try and manipulate him into their puppet/pet. High caste or low caste, all mecha are the same in his mind; greedy to own whatever light that sparks into existence. Steelton sees what his Carrier endures, and understands it, but that doesn't mean that if he could, he would try and give the both of them freedom to just exist.

- I don't know why, but I think that Optimus would be friends with the quiet conjux of the shinny medic that tends to the gladiators (yes I am projecting the "Optimus would go "fuckin finally, someone quiet and seemingly normal" over Breakdown" dream). Also, it's nice seeing Steelton showing interest in something other than training, even if it's paint qualities and styles with the obnoxious medic (and if he can point out a thing or two about the paintings he remembers from Iacon, well, all the better to see his sparkling smile)

Erm, I am sorry about the quality of this ramble (English is not my first language, I'm sorry if anything is confusing or badly written), but I had to get them out of my head. I hope you liked them! I do have the question of what is/has been Ratchet doing meanwhile, and if Optimus managed to get Drift to him before being thrown to the Gladiatorial Pits.

Have a nice day/night!!

Oh my gosh, I love it so much! You guys don't know how happy I am to hear about your opinions/thoughts about the AU! I can read it for hours!

Now let's go:

- You're right, Optimus avoids going to parties as much as possible! Both because he doesn't like the attention and because he hates seeing Megatron surrounded by other mechs. Optimus considers himself too old for Megs. Megatron really hated the attention thrown at him at first, but ego tends to get to your head especially when you're young, he grew to like and crave attention.

-I loved your idea and thanks for sharing it! Ravage will definitely sleep on Steelton's lap haha.

- Steelton only trusts his carrier. One of the reasons why Steelton doesn't trust/like D-16 so much is his uncanny physical resemblance to his sire. The boy sees his carrier suffer and cannot afford to trust anyone. But maybe, in time he will learn to trust.

- This was just cute and I loved it.

- Regarding your question, Ratchet is still working at his clinic in Iacon, but yes, in my AU Ratchet and Drift are a couple. However, it wasn't Optimus who helped Drift.

Thank you so much for sharing this! I loved answering everything

Warp n Cracker

[The part on TC's wrist guard is an amplifier for his thunderclap ability instead of having the sonic boom.]

Expanding a little bit of lore on my Sonus Prime AU:

It's a fan continuity where

Soundwave is a Prime!

basically Cybertron: The Musical/Idol AU,

Most mechs are accompanied by a motif/instrument, theme and a musical genre!

The Seekers are, surprise, suprise, based on girl groups/boy bands, military parades with flypasts and focus more on dance choreography.

For the Elite Trine, their individual genres are:

Starscream: Pop

Skywarp: Punk rock

Thundercracker: Electropop

[cozzzynook]

Drift and Ratchet coming back to the lost light surprised to find Rodimus holding a sparkling he'd recently had. Soundwave is next to him worried because he'd just been released from the hospital earlier that day and needed time to recover.

“Welcome back,” Rodimus smiled very, very exhausted.

The two had just come back to the lost light from their honeymoon and called to what was now Rodimus’s new room more hidden than his last.

They were completely surprised and shocked that Rodimus had gotten a new room and when they smelled more than one scent inside while standing at the door they were completely taken aback.

Drift’s digit print allowed him to enter inside and the scent of happiness and unbearable pain made the two rush towards the berth room where they practically busted the door open with their frames only to stop and see Soundwave fretting over Rodimus who was sitting up looking entirely too uncomfortable and in pain to be wearing the otherworldly smile that he did.

They took in the sight of wires attached to his spark, the IV just beneath his pouches and in his wrist port and the very huge painful looking tank that had yet to go down all but parading itself beneath the nesting blanket. As a tiny sparkling suckled the exposed pouch that Soundwave’s servo covered from their optics along with the tiny and extremely fresh sparkling that weakly pawed at it.

The new spark was but a carbon metallico copy of Soundwave, frame type and color included and the exhausted expression on Rodimus faceplates looked a nano vent away from giving in. But stubbornness and a need to see his bitty kept him awake.

“I’m so glad you guys are back. Come ere,” he struggled to speak. His optics dim, frame weak in a way Soundwave shifted to hold his weight entirely up allowing the two to see his pouches as he whispered in Rodimus’s audial.

That unnaturally deep and powerful vox snapped the two out of their stupor and Ratchet immediately went to work on Rodimus and the new spark with Soundwave careful optics watching. The mech had no accusations towards Ratchet but it was deep sire and conjunx coding keeping him from looking away as he relayed all the info to Ratchet through data sharing comms.

“Kid, you have one pit of a welcome home present for us, thats for sure,” Ratchet couldn’t help but smile. His optics were misty but he’ll argue it’s due to old age instead of what it really is. While Drift just out right cries as he carefully hugs his amica and primus sparkling.

“Roddy! You should’ve told us! We would’ve come back immediately!”

“That’s why I didn’t,” Rodimus was barely able to rely what those words and it was Soundwave’s careful movements along with Drif softly taking the now sleeping bundle and Ratchet helping Soundwave lower Rodimus to the berth. That Rodimus lost his battle to recharge.

“He’s fine. I want to stay to monitor his and the sparklings spark and vitals. Even if he gave emergence this morning, due to his health and the nature of his spark it’ll take longer than a normal post emergence period to heal.”

Ratchet kept his scanner on both Rodimus and the new spark as Rodimus slept with his servo intwined with Soundwave’s who kept a tentacle wrapped loosely on his bitty that Drift cried over.

“Ratty! A sparkling! Roddy had a whole sparkling! We have a sparkling Ratty!!”

Soundwave knew the moment he and his conjunx were sparked the swords mech and medic would have claim on their bitty as well. Just as Rodimus had claim on the two’s adult bitties such as First aid, Red Alert and Medwing.

Being conjunxed to Rodimus meant he had claim of their adult sparklings as well but he never commented or did anything beyond a curt hello and remained beside Rodimus.

So Soundwave expected the two to fawn over and proclaim parentage over their new spark and he was grateful in a way since the medic and swordsmech would do anything for their sparklings and now the new spark his conjunx brought into the galaxy mere hours ago.

It gave him time to take care of his conjunx who now thankfully lay asleep getting the rest he’s more than deserving of.

If Soundwave had his way, his bright spark would be letting him take care of their bitty while he laid in berth or rested until their little gigabyte could walk and he was rounding Rodimus out with the next little soundling.

“You did amazing, sweet spark,” he whispered in his souls audial, low enough only for him to hear and deep enough to make both their frame shift as their sparks begged to merge.

“I love you, i love you, i love you,” his spark sung through touch as he curled against Rodimus whose frame always responded in kind.

Drift and Ratchet were long familiar with the display having gone through the process with their own three bitties that Drift carried so long ago. It doesn’t phase them to experience the intimate display of affection Soundwave gifts Rodimus who more than deserves it.

They’re too busy enraptured in their own intimate moment as they welcome the very first new spark Rodimus has ever emerged into their family.

“They’re beautiful,” Drift keeps crying and Ratchet is reminded of all the times they held their sparklings who weren’t nearly as quiet as this one.

“Welcome home kid,” Ratchet can’t help but shed a few tears as he enjoys the warm welcome of life both old and new.

What a beautiful gift to come home to indeed.

"RECIPROCATION"

@optelate ft. GUMI

TRACK 4 OF SOUNDWAVE PARADE

ARTIST COMMENTS:

"never feel like you have to reciprocate if you're not really feeling it, or that youre invalid if you do. a short song about my ace experience :D"

OUT JUNE 30th

[redsea8me]

It’s literally Mermay and here I am nearly FORGETTING my mermaid Soundchet centric AU…

Alright, for starters, Ratchet in this AU is the only one (besides the pre-existing human characters) that didn’t get mermaided bc I had other plans for her

fun fact, the first piece I have here is actually Ratchet and SW firsts meeting and what happened is essentially Ratchet, somewhere in medschool went on a boat trip w/ friends (Jasper in this AU is a beachside town bc I said so) and she FALLS OFF and is dramatically saved by Soundwave and taken back to shore (missing one of her shoes but that’s okay) and after a few more chance meetings that turn into purposeful meetings they fall in love ooo and get secret married (this is all before the war starts btw)

okay, so the war a lot of the premise stays pretty much the same except everyone is mermaids now, and the Decepticons reside much deeper in the ocean while the Autobots reside in a flooded military base (you should look up photos of flooded nuclear bases those things are awesome) bc yahoo Agent Fowler is still w/ us but this time his issue is mermaids instead of aliens

The human kids met the Autobots definitely bc Miko toook them to check out the old abandoned base and then it totally wasn’t abandoned anymore

June and Ratchet (Rosamonde in this AU ig) are old friends and coworkers, w/ Ratchet totally being her sort of mentor earlier on when June started nursing, but as close as they are June is still a bit unnerved by her totally normal husband, Soundwave (he’s not a fish I promise)

Soundwave, sometime in the beginning of the war very much found the stress of dying and knowing Ratchet could never possibly known what would’ve happened to him totally a bummer so he broke into what the Hall of Records and stole one of the relics (aka the magic human necklace) and has been parading around as human for like, 9 years

Soundwave has also definitely figured out that kids are in cahoots w/ the Autobots (he has told Ratchet this fact) and he’s sort of keeping an eye on them

God… I promise I will draw more for this 🙏

[thelemonsgod]

Things in Cyberverse that I can’t not just get over

For those who have not seen cyberverse, plz do, it’s great 10/10 recommends :3

Am going not going to a specific order other then what is on the top of my mind to least on my mind

Wheeljack and HIS GOSH DARN BLACK HOLE GUN

This thought was the start of this whole post. Ever since I saw the scene of Bumblebee shooting the gun and Hot Rod near going In SAYING “Meet you on the other side!!” Crazy. Like first off why does Wheeljack have that laying around with his other guns??? Why not have it in a secure place? Second off why did he invent that. Am CONVINCED HE invented it because in like the next episode we see Shockwave’s lab and he has created things Wheeljack have ,except the black hole gun. Shockwave, if he had a black hole gun, would have found a use for that thing. And if Wheeljack took it from Shockwave then I think Shockwave would have mentioned it. But he doesn’t. And he knew what that gun did! He yelled “No!” When Bee took it and fired.

Dude, if I was Hot Rod and experienced nearly getting suck into a black hole omg. I would just never shut up about it. And he never mentions it ,like, ever after that! It’s crazy, he was fully convinced he was going to die and AGHH!!….. I think if I wrote more I would be repeating myself but I need y’all to know that I think Wheeljack is just a bit more insane then Shockwave just because of that darn black hole gun.

Team Hot Rod (Hot Rod, Bumblebee, and Cheetor)

This trio is so cute :( I quite loved the episode where they just surf. But imagine how Bumblebee felt that he came down with the All-Spark with his two best friends and came out alone. He couldn’t find Hot Rod so he persuaded him dead, he witnessed Cheetor die in front of him, like bro must have went back up deflated. I just imagine him running into Windblades arm and just holding her and Windblade comforting him as they slowly walk away ToT. Also I think it’s cruel that they never mention Cheetor ever again. Blurr shows up again after being dead for over 70 billions years or something but Cheetor who was kinda a main character in season 2 and omg the dead seekers they never get talked about- umm anyway I think it would be totally awesome if they showed Hot Rod looking for Cheetor in the sea of people since he did see him in a parade and being absolutely destroyed after finding out he’s dead.

Shadow striker, just her in general

Her having to reteach herself on how to hold weapons and do basic things with her body after getting new limbs after an explosion that should have killed her is like a sad yet inspiring story. Like her not giving up on herself, sure she could no longer use the weapons she used to use but her determination on getting revenge and winning the war made her even stronger then how she was before. I love how at the end of it all she’s able to feel comfortable in her self and no longer glitches.

Also wish they show a bit more of her frenemies thing she had with Prowl was shown more because it just like wild that someone she sort cared about is now dead because of her. I also think that when Megatron Shadow feel sadness over killing Prowl made him think she isn’t a true con so that’s why in season 3 she became that part of the cons that was left out of his plans. Also Soundwave and Shadow striker friendship is just great. FGAHH She took Lazerbeak when he died :((( they were such a killer duo and honestly the highlight of season 2.

The parades

The parade in one of the two special episodes (season 4? Idk seen ppl say season 4 but I think it’s more of a special ep) must have been hard for Hot Rod. He absolutely HATED the parade as it was there to fit him there, unlike the others. The scientist coded the parade to keep everyone in there (except perceptor, he’s too perceptive for that) it was created to entertain them. As seen when Clobber went in after getting out, she enjoyed the parade. Whirl keep getting crushed.. Deadend, he didn’t quite enjoy it all but he was still entertained. Don’t know what Soundwave was doing, probably on the roofs with Shadow striker making fun of everyone else.

But Hot Rod he wasn’t even a thought in peoples minds. When he said Optimus said Hot Rod and Hot Rod was happy he remembered him imply that Hot Rod show that not only did the code completely forgot about him but also imply that the minds of those were alter to not worry about anything other then the parade. Clobber couldn’t even remember how the Quintessences came about. And Hot Rod had to experience the loop like more then 100 times!! Being aware of the loop is like torture.

And so imagine after all the horrors everyone decides to finally get along and throw a celebration for it! … A parade. I know for a FACT that Hot Rod did not agree to have the peace treaty be a parade. When I first saw they were throwing a parade I thought “Omg The loop has begun, is Hot Rod going to go through all that again?! ToT” but it wasn’t which was cool. But I just imagine Hot Rod transforming every once in a while to ensure he isn’t in a loop. It’s crazy they could have done a party in one area or maybe have many people showcase memories or something expect a parade ToT.

The transformers in Cyberverse gotta be the oldest transformers

They crashed on earth when dinosaurs were walking. They were in stasis for at most 65 million years because that’s how long ago dinosaurs were alive for. But that’s not all they have been at war wayyy longer like it had to been a long time for the whole planet destroyed and it’s just wild to be! OPTIMUS AND MEGATRON ARE PROBABLY OLDER THEN EARTH IT SELF!! Like everyone (except Cheetor) has gotta be billions properly TRILLION years old. They’re old. I saw a post about it here and was so happy someone else noticed it.

My brain is now relaxed

I wanted to get out some thoughts I had so created this post :3 If you have anything that you saw in the show pleaseeee express your thoughts. I would like to see if others have thought of things I have not and I think it’s cool we have different brains. I might do a post about headcannos when I get around to it ^-^ Soo I leave y’all with this image here!

Guess who I created first T-T

[talesfromlissom]

hello everything is fine? If requests are still open, I would like to know if you can do the reaction of the Decepticons (Megatron, Tarn, Overlord and Soundwave) with a Cybertronian s/o who is a cannibal and uses a fucinheira? Is she a powerful and insane warrior? If you don't want to write, ignore it, thank you.

A/N: I don’t normally do IDW requests (haven't read it all, and I also assumed that's the universe you wanted), however I recognize these characters enough that I did the request anyways because my inbox has been the sahara desert for the past couple of months Anyways I loved this request, so thank you. And yes, everything is good. 

MEGATRON

 » He puts a leash on you, sorry. 

 » Your relationship is absolutely terrifying, a lord and his loyal guard dog that eats people

 » When he first discovered your cannabalistic tendencies, he was shocked at first. He mainly just cops it up as a habit not yet broken from your upbringing. He had to do various unsavory things to survive being a low caste member, so why were you any different? 

 » relationship wise your dynamic is pretty much what is said above. You parades you around like a trophy, and sometimes even feeds you the severed limbs/organs of his prisoners. You don't mind as long as your fed apparently.

 » A long time ago, (for shits and giggles) he had said that he would use you as an execution method. Mainly for individuals that betrayed him and Megatron didn’t feel like hunting them down himself. When he saw how enthusiastic you were he made it a thing. 

 » Nothing pleases him more than letting you out of the muzzle to go ‘hunt’ and seeing you bring back a limb, organ, or seeing your intake covered in energon. It does something to him. 

 » May or may not have a predator/prey kink now 

TARN 

 » Probably the one to give you the muzzle in the first place.  

 »  You’re definitely a member of DJD by the way, I’d imagine he’d name you after the capital of his home city.

 » You and him met when he was going after yet another Decepticon traitor. He had expected to find yet another snivling coward, or a fighter. 

 » What he found was a half eaten corpse with you hovering over it. You looked wild, disheveled, but there was a sense of intelligence in your optics despite how much bloodshed you caused. 

 » And you caused alot. 

 » (Similar to Megatron) If on the rare occasion that the DJD’s current target gets away he send you on the hunt. He always orders you to bring them back alive, but he never says if they have to come back with all their limbs in tact. 

 » He prefers to kill them himself, and alternates between letting Tesarus grind them into bits or letting you eat them alive. 

 » He once had Tesarus grind a deserter into paste, and then Tarn served it to you as some fucked up smoothie. 

 » He still laughs about it to this day btw 

OVERLORD 

  » Was most likely frightened of you at first. You were strong, probably insane because you flat out ate people without a care in the world. However, that wasn’t what frightened him. 

 » You were smart. Every kill you made was calculated and precise. It was always people that the others wouldn’t notice missing. You memorized their schedule, the type of energon they had, the amount of exercise they got. 

 » Your prey was carefully, hand selected. You had certain types of people that you went after to consume, and people you avoided like the plague. 

  » At first he didn’t notice that various prisoners were going missing. He didn’t care, they couldn’t escape even if they tried. He didn’t really mind if the other Decepticons had dragged some loud mouthed Autobot out of their cells to give them a piece of their mind to be honest. 

 » And then he found a half eaten Autobot hanging from the ceiling, and that scared the hell out of him. He knew about your tendencies to devour your fellow Cybertronian, he just never thought he’d witness the aftermath. 

 » Afterwards you two come with a sort of unspoken agreement. You’re clearly settling for half cooked chow and he isn’t sure how long you’ll be satisfied with that. 

 » He keeps a close eye on you, and has a ‘list’ of your ‘most liked’ traits in a prey. Their energon type, the functionality of their frame, that sort of thing. If they happened to win enough fights, instead of Overlord giving his usual, ‘kill me or kill yourself’ dilemma, he rearranges it to ‘kill you or kill yourself’. 

 » You look completely unassuming to most, and you use that your advantage. 

 » Overlord loves seeing the look on people’s face when you don’t go for the kill, but instead open your mouth. The moment they see what’s inside they start screaming. 

 » He’ll never get tired of those noises.

Knockout x Reader

sorry its all brainrot, i dont even write often. my notes app wouldnt even let me write all of it.

warnings: none

(I had originally planned for this to be to have some teasing on k.o's part but my adhd ass as lost track and no longer want to finish it.)

•Megatron was not happy Knock Out went out on an excursion on earth again.

This time he went to a car show ending up quite literally displaying himself as humans paraded around him. an ego boost definitely.

•A human girl took an interest in him, she was one of the models for the show. She ran her fingers along his hood while posing for pictures as needed. Knockout definitely welcomed the attention. Perhaps not the fleshing having contact with him, but the fact that everyone's eyes were focused on him and the cameras flashing everywhere. This is how the Aston Martin should be presented.

•As the day turns to night, the show slows down. The human is gone, and the attendees have dispersed. He took this moment to zip it and make a beeline out, navigating around the other cars and calling for a ground bridge.

•Unbeknownst to him, the human was close by, making her way to her car in the parking lot. You noticed the exact same red car that was not long in the show, but now somehow outside. Was it a private dealer that was just showing off their car for the day? Curiously you made your way over to it.

•A wave of air gushed out, followed by a white light that swirled into a blue green, surrounded by the white light. A portal looking white hole right infront of the red Aston Martin.

•You see the car revving up and starting to drive through it. Without thinking, you've started chasing after it. Not sure if the driver knows what the hell is going on, hell, not sure if you know what you're doing with it. It was just too wild.

•As the swirl closes, landing on the other side, you took a look around to see where in the hell you've landed. Its dark, everything seems to be metal, the place is huge. Something you've never seen before. You grip onto the metal wall stabilizing yourself as you feel a wave of nausea through yourself.

•Knock Out has already transformed and is making his way down the hallway, hoping neither Soundwave or Megatron has caught wind of his little excursion. Something nags him in the back of his processor. He most definitely enjoyed the attention that was given to him earlier today, but a lingering feeling he has about a certain human running their fingers across his hood. He brings his servo up to his chassis, chasing after that feeling again.

• Where the fuck?? are you? And what the fuck did you just get yourself into? Hell, where's the car you were following? Everything is so confusing. you look back to see nothing but hallway, look forward, same thing. A string of bad decisions, you tell yourself. Deciding to just make your way down wherever and quietly explore your surroundings.

• Nope. Megatron definitely knows. And he's not happy. "Knock Out." he calls out as the doors to the medbay opens up. Knock Out inside tinkering with a buffer, still riding off the high.

• "Lord Megatron!" He exclaims. "How may I be of service?" He turns around and quickly tucks the buffer behind him, looking a little guilty.

• "Where have you been this cycle? I do not recall giving you permission to leave." Megatron states, moving in closer into the medbay, towards Knockout. "Have you been out street racing again?"

• "N-no my liege!" He stammers as he takes a step back, placing the buffer on the berth. "I- I was on patrol! Just scouting out energon deposit!" He lies through his grited denta. Megatron definitely would not be happy knowing he was out parading himself in the presence of *humans*.

• "Oh? Is that so?" Megatron takes a step towards the console thats to the left of Knock Out. "Then tell me why Soundwave has gotten several reports of a red Aston Martin that looks *oddly* familiar in a car show?" He presses a button on the console, bringing up the human version of the internet, The social media sprawled with photos of Knock Out in his alt form. Some with a human posing next to him.

• This place is endless. You finally see some semblance of a gigantic metal door. It's odd you haven't ran into another else so far, and it was too eerily silent. But not for long. You hear some sort of chatter behind the said door, so picking up the pace, you jog over to it.

• "You weren't out racing. Decided to pick up *modeling* now?" A snarky comment dripping with sarcasm comes out from the other side of the door. You press your hand towards the door, fully intending to put your ear next to eavesdrop on the conversation. Hell! this was the first sound you've heard since being on this weird metal enclosure!

• The door slides open on contact. and you find yourself falling face first towards the ground. A small "woah" comes out of you as you flail your arms infront of you trying to brace for impact before smacking onto the metal ground.

• That was enough to catch the attention of whoever was inside talking. You take a look up, still in your knees and hands. "What... the fuck." you exclaim. Two giant metal robots. One extremely large, looking like a silver shark, and gives off a powerful eerie feeling. The red eyes glowing onto you. The slightly smaller one next to him, Red in colour, oddly familiar colour pattern actually, you thought. It also has glowing red eyes thats pinned onto you. But it's aura is more timid. Still scary, but not as much as the shark looking one.

SPOILERS FOR CYBERVERSE ‼️

i was watching Cyberverse, season 3 and what the fuck is going on... its so chaotic. sometimes, i start an episode and i feel like i missed a whole ass movie series in between cause they started with the parade loop thing and i was like, "what the fuck? what did i miss?"

lowkey got me staring at the TV screen like this 💔🥀‼️ (found on Pinterest idk the artist)

also THEY NERFED SKY-BYTE AND JETFIRE SO MUCH ITS NOT EVEN FUNNY. like one season ago we're told that their fighting wiped off whole ass civilizations and shit and now THIS. like they were two forces of nature and now they being put in place by missiles and shit 💔💔💔

ACTING LIKE THEY DIDNT BREAK THE WHOLE ASS GROUND AND ENDANGERED AN ANCIENT MONUMENT, BROKE THE GROUND SO DEEP LAVA WAS COMING OUT. WHOLE ASS SEISMIC ERUPTION. ANS THEY SURVIVED A BLACK HOLE??? HELLLOOOO?????

also the fact that Megatron CHOSE the Roman Colessum for a one on one between Jetfire and Sky-Byte means he probably knew it was used for human gladiatorial combat. im headcanoning Cyberverse Megs to have done his research on human gladitorial combat and possibly even the MMA. he probably has his favorite wrestler or something idk

+ why is everyone so calm about Wheeljack making drugs? like crazy inventor and everything, i know but is there really no lines they're gonna put for the guy?

i need a post-war series where Swindle becomes a mafia boss druglord by buying out Wheeljack's condensed energon and Wheeljack doesn't even know that he's being Walter White'ed. he's Heisenberg.

they killed off all the seekers but how tf did Megsy manage to pull a few for that fight they had on Cybertron? did he pull them out of his aft!?

AND CYBERVERSE STARSCREAM NEEDS TK BE STUDIED IN A LAB WTF STROKE OF LUCK ASS BULLSHIT IS HAPPENING TO HIM. HES GETTINF ASSPULL AFTER ASSPULL LIKE WHAT.

i NEED him GONE. i need Cyberverse Starscream GOOOOONNNNNEEEEEEE.

this is how I'm gonna look like when that flyboy is sent to the ALLSPARK WHERE HE SHOULD STAY CAUSE HE'S CLINICALLY INSANE.

but then I realize that Megatron gave him such a brutal beat down that he actually went insane and when I think about it, the more I realize why the Decepticons are so scared to step out of line CAUSE CYBERVERSE MEGATRON DOES NOT PLAY AROUND. HOLY FUCK. that beat down was a MASSACRE. transformers version of Jogo vs. Sukuna in Shibuuya because that shit was NOT A FIGJT.

but even then, ngl Cyberverse Megatron is kinda stupid. just saying. I still don't get who tf and why tf they were livestreaming. THE DISRESPECT ON STARSCREAM'S SUPPOSED DEATH ON HIS FUNERAL WAS INSANE-

also Perceptor, he's too OP. he's blind and he's still getting shit done. he's the real MVP.

i love how many characters they show though like i love all of them and i dont think i can bare to see them die. im on S3, EP8.

so far my favorites are:

Soundwave

Clobber

Skybyte

Grimlock

Wheeljack

Slipstream

Deadend

Preceptor

Whirl

also i saw a Kup cameo and started losing it cause I love that old mech.

+ WHAT THE FUCK DID THEY DO TO DRIFT NOOOOO DEADLOCK WHYYY

I LOVE HOW THEY INCORPERATE THE IDW DESIGNS HEEHEE ITS SO MMGNFMRJEJDJDJSJWNSJDJDJ

in conclusion, despite how confuddling it is, 9/10 show

[spiderscribe]

Character ask meme - gimme hot rod (cyberverse) and rodimus (mtmte) pwease💖💖💖

anything for you 💖💖💖

(putting these under a read more bc it got kind of long fjldkjslf)

hot rod (cyberverse)

one aspect about them i love

everything I love that he's so quick to get mad and fight anyone who pisses him off, and yet he never holds a grudge. Clobber captured and handed him over to Megatron before, Dead End fought with him twice, Soundwave literally tried to kill him—but he still befriended all of them and accepted them as part of his team without question. Maybe it's part due to the apocalypse situation, and maybe it's part of his "It's the right thing to do as an Autobot" line of thinking, but I think a part of it is also his genuine desire to want to see them alive and safe too, regardless of the fact that they've been enemies for millions of years. 

one aspect i wish more people understood about them

This bad boy can fit so much responsibility AND irresponsibility in him <3 To me, it seems like Hot Rod's instincts usually have him leaning towards doing what he wants rather than what he genuinely thinks is right, but there are times (especially when he's forced into a leadership role) that he sits down and thinks things through more. And the latter isn't always the "better" side of him—I think a lot about the time he became too fixated on trying to free Optimus from the parade bc he thought that had to be the best next step, and almost got himself killed that way. It's a fascinating contradiction, and characterizing him as only "responsible" or "irresponsible" without enough of the other takes away a lot of his appeal imo. 

one (or more) headcanon(s) i have about this character

Hot Rod doesn't have a tragic backstory; before the war, he lived a fairly easy, carefree life and didn't have a ton of things to worry about. (There's nothing wrong with headcanoning Hot Rod to have a past on par with mtmte Rodimus and Nyon, but I personally find it more challenging and interesting to write him a nuanced character arc in canon and post-canon without needing to rely on a whumpy past to make him a compelling character, if that makes sense?)

one character i love seeing them interact with

Clobber!!! Their friendship was so good. They're so funny together. I love that they came to trust each other so quickly in s3, to the point that Clobber switched sides. I would've loved to watch an episode where Clobber made that decision with Hot Rod's encouragement and support. I would've watched an entire spinoff show centred on the two of them and the silly antics they get up.

one character i wish they would interact with/interact with more

I loooove his and Dead End's mutually antagonistic relationship after Dead End woke up from the parade. If we got more of them talking (read: bickering) throughout that arc, I think the two of them could've had some amazing banter. But it's fine, since every time I write these two interacting in fics, they end up having the kind of stupid dialogue I imagine they would've had lmao

one (or more) headcanon(s) i have that involve them and one other character

Hot Rod has a human holoform because while the Ark was stuck on Earth, he had Wheeljack make one for him and Bee so the two of them could sneak out and try to blend in with the humans (emphasis on the word "tried.") This ends up coming in useful later when an Autobot mission involving infiltrating as humans comes up, and Hot Rod and Bee are like "!!! our time has come :D"

rodimus (mtmte)

one aspect about them i love

also everything I love that he's kind of awful LOL he can deliberately rude and cruel, and yes he's trying to be better about that but something something progress isn't linear. And I love that about him!! I love that he's growing. But I think even later versions of Rodimus still have those moments of insensitivity ^^ and I love that too, bc it wouldn't feel like Rodimus if he didn't occasionally make you want to bury your face in your hands and scream "RODIMUS PLEASE SHUT UP"

one aspect i wish more people understood about them

This is kinda similar to what I wrote for Hot Rod for this question :'D but Rodimus is both arrogant AND chock full of insecurities. There's sooo many things he's not confident in, both about himself and his (often complicated) relationships with other ppl, but at the same time he also genuinely thinks he's pretty great and self-assured lol. You can't write him as only one of these two, or a critical part of his personality is missing!! 

one (or more) headcanon(s) i have about this character

Rodimus will happily watch pretty much anything at Swerve's movie nights, but when ppl ask him what his favourite movies are, he'll lie and list a bunch of action movies bc he thinks that makes him sound cooler (it doesn't. he never realizes this.) No one can ever learn his actual favourite movies include a few romcoms, shonen anime films, and the 1989 adaptation of Henry V.

one character i love seeing them interact with

Niks I know you're going to be so shocked by this answer but I adore all his interactions with Ultra Magnus. Somehow, he and Rodimus are always simultaneously on the exact same wavelength and having two different conversations at the same time. It's amazing. And by amazing, I mean ridiculous and hilarious what is wrong with them

one character i wish they would interact with/interact with more

Hmmmm there's so many good options for this, but I'm going to throw a dart at the board and say...Brainstorm! I get why he and Rodimus shouldn't interact more (it's for the health and safety of the entire crew) but man it would've been so funny to see the two of them having one-on-one discussions where Brainstorm tries to convince Rodimus to let him do whatever he wants by telling him about all the cool things his potential inventions can do, and Rodimus brushes right by the extremely high risk for destruction and feeds Brainstorm's terrible ideas with his own "oh, but wouldn't it be even better if you also make it do THIS" opinions

one (or more) headcanon(s) i have that involve them and one other character

Rodimus was the one who got Tailgate his hoverboard, but he made Tailgate promise not to tell anyone it was him. At first, it was because he had this scene in his head that he'd dramatically reveal he gifted the hoverboard to Tailgate out of the goodness of his spark and everyone would praise his kindness and generosity. Now, it's because he doesn't want anyone to murder him for being the one to give it to Tailgate. 

[theoceanoasis]

Rodimus having a fire outlier he barely uses because they’re seen as bad and a curse by autobots. But when decepticons see it they know its a gift and maybe Deadlock or Soundwave help him through the trauma he received for having such a gift?

Also either one or both seeing him being able to light himself on fire & that he is fire proof

They were in the training room working together to take down Quentessons. They had recently passed their highest score and things were intense. The two of them were back to back fighting off twelve Quentessons each.

It was difficult and he found himself getting tired from all of the training. Which caused his glitch to get worse. One moment he was training and the next he was back in the parade.

He heard a crash and what sounded like.

"Watch out!"

He was tipped to the side which released him from the loop. Looking around confused. He could see Hot Rod above him and injured.

"Come on!"

Hot Rod helped him stand.

"I think it's best if we end training."

He wanted to argue. However he was distracted by Quentessons attacking. Still out of it from the loop. He found himself having a hard time. Hot Rod who'd been trying to turn it off. Looked at him in panic.

"It's not working!"

The Quentessons kept coming and they were overwhelmed. They were taking more hits then actually fighting and he felt his glitch start up again.

"Hot Rod!"

The Autobot looked at him only to get slammed into the ground. He ran towards him and also hit the ground. Where he was attacked by multiple Quentessons. He didn't know how much more of this they could take.

Black spots entered his vision and when he looked at Hot Rod, he could see him panicking. He was being held down and beaten. Struggling against his captors. He suddenly released fire from his body.

The Quentessons nearest to him were burned to a crisp. While others melted from the heat he gave off. It was enough to finally stop the training exercise. Hot Rod collapsed, his sudden fire power gone.

He stared at him in shock. Because he didn't know Hot Rod was an outlier. He never knew the Autobots had outliers. He always assumed they joined the Decepticons at the beginning of the war. Because of the injustice they faced on Cybertron.

"Hot Rod?"

The Autobots head snapped over so quickly he winced. Watching as his optics widened in fear. Hot Rod dragged himself backwards, pressing himself into a corner. He brought his legs up like a shield, shaking his head and mumbling to himself.

"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to. I'm so sorry. I'm not a monster I swear. Please don't turn me in. They'll hurt me. Please. I'm so sorry. I'll never do it again."

He stared at him in shock. Watching as he broke down. Sobbing and scratching at himself in a panic. Completely oblivious to his presence.

"Hot Rod?"

The Autobot stared up at him with tears streaming down his face.

"Please don't hurt me!"

He begged and he took a careful step forward. Only to freeze when the Autobot panicked more.

"What's wrong?"

"You can't tell the others I'm a filthy outlier. Please Soundwave. I'm begging you. I'll do anything just please don't tell them."

"I'm not going to tell."

"Promise?"

"Yes of course. I don't understand though. Why don't you want me to tell them?"

"Because I'm dangerous. A monster. Outliers are a curse, who can only hurt others and I promise I'm good. I'll be good for you. Just please don't tell."

Hot Rod cried rocking back and forth, hugging himself.

"What happened to the outliers who joined the Autobots?"

He felt his spark spin rapidly. He tried not to think of his own outlier ability, as he looked at Hot Rod. Who was usually so brave and confident. Now reduced to a sobbing mess, quivering on the floor in fear. He could only imagine what the Autobots have done to people like them.

"Outliers are monsters who have to be controlled. Too dangerous to be with others. There are these chips that control outliers. They shock you when you're bad. Outliers can only be weapons and that's exactly what their turned into. Experimented and sent to die on the battlefield."

He looked at him in horror. Suddenly too many things he once shrugged off adding up. Times when Autobots acted strangely, almost like they wanted to die. Their optics haunted, from what he assumed was war. As they were sent to be slaughtered. Having no chance of survival. Wounds all over their bodies. He thought were from previous battles.

He shuddered and took another step forward. Hot Rod pressed himself further against the wall. Staring at him with wide eyes and hyperventilating.

He crouched down so he was at eye level, trying to be reassuring.

"It's okay Hot Rod, I'm not going to hurt you. Decepticons believe outliers are special. That we've been given our gifts for a reason."

"Really?"

Hot Rod stared at him in shock and he nodded.

"Do you want to know a secret?"

"What?"

"I'm an outlier?"

Hot Rod immediately shook his head looking panicked.

"You're lying. It's a trick. I've heard that trick before and I won't fall for it. I won't let you experiment on me. I'm good. I promise. Please don't hurt me. I'm good. I'm good. I'm good. Not a monster. Please. I'm sorry. Don't hurt me."

"Hot Rod no, it's true."

He reached for him and then thought better of it. Seeing the way it made Hot Rod panic more. He gently brushed Hot Rods mind. Using his outlier ability to soothe him. He watched as Hot Rod relaxed slightly.

"What?"

"I'm a telepath."

Hot Rod closed his optics and shuddered swaying slightly.

"Can I see yours again?"

Hot Rod frowned. Opening his optics he glanced at the door and then back at him. He seemed to be debating it for a moment. Before finally he lit himself on fire. He watched the flames dance across his frame. Hot Rod completely unharmed, as he played with the flames in his hands.

"Beautiful."

Hot Rod looked at him with wide optics taking in a sudden influx of air.

"Really?"

He tentatively asked, looking at him with hope. He carefully moved closer and Hot Rod put out his flames. Allowing him to touch him.

"Yes. You and your outlier ability are beautiful. You are something special Hot Rod a gift and you shouldn't have to hide it."

He watched Hot Rod bite his lip trying to hide a smile and then he lundged at him, wrapping his arms around him in a hug. He pulled him closer rubbing his shaking spoiler in comfort.

"You are so beautiful."

He held Hot Rod as he sobbed in his arms. Letting out years of tears and pain, as he was forced to hide his gifts and feel ashamed.

If you liked this one here's something similar.

[mychlapci]

Been into Starwave lately and had an idea

Compared to sound systems, seekers have an elaborate song and dance when they find a mate. Gifting-giving, dominance shows, flight dances, eventually their mating will be sealed with interface and a sparkling.

Soundwave is constantly being corralled into their “nest” every time they have a lick of time together not knowing that Starscream is trying fuck a baby into him. It gets to a point where starscream thinks a private corner is a great place to fill Soundwave. As soon as there’s a break between the fighting, Soundwave is just constantly stuck on Star’s knot, he should be annoyed but his Cassette Carrier instincts are preening at the transfluid.

Turns out they’re both overachievers because Soundwave is now sparked with a trine, he’s a bit grumbly since they’re bigger than a cassette, but Starscream is parading Soundwave around bragging about his perfect mate and their sparkling trine.

mhmmm dick wielding menace Starscream, constantly trying to breed Soundwave any moment he gets. Soundwave is half convinced this is a scheme, half convinced that he’s lost his mind, because he actually is considering taking Starscream up on his offer. Meanwhile Starscream’s breeding drive is getting more and more intense and he really wants to seal the courting. He wants to seal it now.

Starscream getting pushy one day and he ends up wrangling Soundwave into a corner and he rubs his spike against Soundwave’s panels until he opens them up, fucking him from behind while Soundwave struggles to hold himself against the wall. When he feels Starscream’s knot swell up, he finally understands what all of this was about. mhmmm someone coming around and seeing Soundwave with his head pressed up against the wall and a Starscream latched to his back, rocking his hips into him shallowly while gloating about how great his seed will be for Soundwave’s forge. 

Soundwave having to compromise because Starscream is needy and will yap into his audials for hours on end until he gives in and lets him fuck him, working with a knot stuck in his valve. After he starts growing fat with a little winged trine, Starscream finally lets up, but now he’s annoying in a whole new way, constantly pointing to Soundwave’s belly and talking about how he did that, and no one else.
