[dazzletron9000]

wanted to draw more little wildbreak... the cutie patootie

I feel like from his demeanor in rid he'd be very mild mannered as a child, timid and a bit shy, generally quite 'easy' to look after

still plenty curious though, I keep ending up drawing him with a lost look on his face

[utsuhashi]

yes he has a big mate

[onioned]

Happy family 🥺 (what could have been)

I love these stupid robots so much. Always thinking about them, I need to draw more Nova

Plus a bonus doodle, Optimus is sooooo annoying about Megatron carrying

[chamm0y]

Imagine Microwave (Or Shockwave/Soundwave) blowing raspberries on his baby sister Radiowave 😭

i guess she doesnt like loud noises, microwave thought she was looking at him funny... she cant even form facial gestures yet 😭 cmon man she was just born

btw her name is jammer now ദ്ദി(˵ •̀ ᴗ - ˵ ) ✧

✨MY TAKE ON TFA SPARKLINGS/PROTOFORMS✨

All you only need are three components; a protoform, a spark, creators’ CNA!

-|The spark can either be formed from a spark bound or from the AllSpark itself

-|An adult protoform will be essentially the best option

-|Creators’ CNA is required as well for the sparkling, and the process is quite simple

-|| I wished they could have explored Sari’s origins honestly but this shall be my head cannon that Meg’s CNA was already in the protoform and when Prof Sumdac touched it both of their infused DNA/CNA made Sari ||-

Adult Frame Protoform can turn to a small frame/sparkling once there is a spark. (Whether it’s from the AllSpark or Spark bound)

Now, because Vector Sigma isn’t within this process to create or bring life to a sparkling but an adult frame instead, the creators of the sparkling will then engage in contact by touching the molten spark protoform to mix their CNA together to create their offspring. The molten protoform with the combination of both creators’ CNA, will form a pod-like structure.

Once the pod hatches/casing opens, you have yourself a sparkling!✨

The case will open whenever the protoform structure, coding is installed fully. Every sparkling will take its own time to develop within the pod. When it is their time to emerge, the pod will blink its lights profusely

STAGE I Sparkling/Protoform/Baby

They’ll be small ofc and their hard metal plating would develop over time when the sparkling comes of age

They will need their creators’ radiation/EMF to familiarize themselves with their parents and feed on it. They can also fuel on energon from their creators fuel channels off of their digits…like a leech

STAGE II Kid/Toddler Frame

STAGE III

Meet Silver Lining<33 Teen/Adult Frame

And yes, I made this opmeg/megop fan kid and he’s got siblings >:)

So glad to get this outta my system explain my pov on this topic and I love seeing all the unique ideas/head cannons others come up with in this fandom

I’d probs make a fic on this…maybe…but if you gots questions I’d be happy to answer <3333

[berracids]

Megaton picking up his hybrid sparkling by the scruff as he has mixed emotions about this wet hamster looking jellybean and either it is actually ugly or has some appeal he doesn’t see, he isn’t sure if he is smitten or disgusted maybe both. Most likely both

“It doesn’t look that intimidating, but I suppose we can work on that as I teach them to follow my legacy”

He loves his sparkling, he truly does,…just give him a while to adjust to the feeling of the very soft and malleable metal of it’s frame in his clawed servos

Toddler Terrans (1/?) - Malto Terrans

Terrans as a species are born from stone eggs created inside of Emberstone pools. They "hatch" in sizes reaching from a human toddler to a young child. Terrans who are born together are biological siblings.

The "toddler phase" is short. It's even shorter for this new generation due to the post-war era they are born into, to increase their odds in survival.

Childhood friends.

Op's chonkiest babys was Soundwave. And that's saying something Because he had Grimlock and Snarl before he had Soundwave

Also a little stupid thing under the cut

Hi^_^

Hey! I got idea

I'd like you to draw D-16 as a baby. How cute would it be?

^_^🖤🩶💛

Here comes the baby~♡

I drew him sleeping in the basket💖 think that's how I imagine him from The Lost Prime AU

I HAVE SO MANY thoughts on sparklings/carrying/transformers reproduction. I feel like a lot of fics end up doing a 1:1 with human pregnancies as a reference and while ITS OK it could be more fun. So some thoughts:

It's always the stronger creator that carries. This is due to the drain on carrier resources as well as sparkling size (a minibot won't be having a shuttle). Receiving partner has no influence on who gets sparked. Spark merges create sparkling, not just interface. This is SOMETIMES also determined by size, but not necessarily! Sparklings are generally the same size when they're born, CNA will later determine how large they get

Gestation time depends on available resources! Growth will slow down if there's a lack of materials to build with. Because of longevity, carrying periods are long in general.

Spark merges are more important than transfluid 🫡 (transfluid feels too fuck or die to me, it's still useful to fuel growth but a carrier can provide it on their own, growth will just slow down). A spark merge is how the sparkling gets most of its power during the creation process! Until completely built, it struggles to maintain its own spark.

Forges don't change in size (this one I'm always back and forth on, but I'm sticking to this for the following reasons). Carriers are made to function normally while carrying, as this helps to protect the sparkling! Carriers are rarely obviously carrying. Sparklings are small (depending on creators)

When born sparklings are soft! Their plating hardens after a few cycles. They also partially transform for ease of emergence

Sparklings start as just a spark! Kindled from a spark merge. It will attach to the stronger creator spark and while it strengthens, its protoform will begin to grow in the carriers forge. The spark splits after the protoform is built enough to support its spark! It still regains a direct line to the carriers spark which continues to supply auxiliary power as it grows. The sparkling cant move/think until attached to its body. Generally that's when its EM field starts projecting

I also think sparklings have no assigned gender AT ALL. all transformers are already intersex basically, and gender is a preference so 🫡 sparklings normally have neutral pronouns until they're able to decide their presentation

This is just my ramblings LOLLL

Just some doodles I made inspired by a Camp counsellor AU by @sailorhoneyy on the Jazz Prowl discord I'm in.

ITS DA BABYYY ROLLER!! aka mini Silver Lining ✨

That's right kiddo was causing mischief even in the 'womb'

+ I've been watching G1 and read the Spotlight comics and yes I'm namin him after this lil guy

And I came up with some more aspects for Sparklings/Roller

Annddd I've been meaning to get this one outta my system but the size diff in TFA will never not amaze me 😭😭 So I managed some rough sketchies on both creators+sparkling

Servo + Pod

Servo + Sparkling it's so funny shifting him around the images he's such a lil goober (ಥ _ ಥ)

I honestly didn't expect him to be practically the size of OP's palm but I'm all in for it <333

And the height diff sheet! It wasn't what I was going for with OP and Megs but it's somethin??

Still debating on who should be carrier and sire, I love all concepts and ideas ppl come up with so I'm still thinking... but lemme know whatchu think am I cookin or am I cookin (✿◡‿◡)
