#tfp bulkead

[factual-fantasy]

My many ailments have been kicking my tailpipe these past 2-3 days ngl 💀 but it doesn't matter how sore my throat is or how badly my ear aches, It cannot stop me from drawing people hugging 💪

I also took this opportunity to mess around with their tire placements and experiment with Wheeljacks decals. I plan to redesign them after having watched the whole show so this was a good little warmup! :))

[withered-tears]

Extremely dumb transformers headcanon:

Cybertronians with car/car-similar alt modes have cupholders, but they dont know what they are.

Its basically like an appendix/wisdom teeth situation of "why the heck our bodies still have these" except its been so long they LEGITIMATELY have no clue what possible purpose they have.

Then one day Bulkhead gotta drive Fowler super early in the morning for a mission, and Fowler by reflex puts his shitty coffee cup in Bulkhead's cupholder.

And Bulkhead straight up goes like that cat with a flower hat meme, THE PROPHECY IS TRUE kinda freezes in place goes all oh my fucking primus it all makes sense now

Fowler is starting to think he accidentally got into a regular ass truck cuz Bulkhead been frozen in the parking lot for like five minutes

[tinydefector]

Hey man just wanted to let you know that I LOVE the idea you made up for the rust section in this post (https://www.tumblr.com/tinydefector/755501675977097216/every-single-day-i-think-about-your-post-about) is there any chance you could expand on the idea more? I’m just so curious about it

Ps just did my 3 month ask box clear out. Only got a few ask left in there now. Read rules before submitting.

Oh I definitely can. There is actually quite a few different things humans consume or use cosmetically that the bots would have a lot of questions over.

Here's a list of a few human made things that Cybertronians seem to very much enjoy for cosmetic, medical or as luxurious products.

1. Coconut oil

They happen to really enjoy it for their upholstery. Especially when they weren't able to get their hands on proper car products. (Cough cough TFP bots) I can definitely see Jack using it because he's a broke teenager and just adds a nice essential oil in with it and he's got himself a large jar of leather conditioner. It's only after Miko and Ralph see him using it on his shoes at one point they are like o0o. And begin stealing it to do bulkheads and bumblebee's seats.

Another one that would work similar is the same mix I actually use for horse saddles, which is rendered down. Beef or Lambs fat with Kerosene, so it doesn't go off. It's an amazing leather conditioner, and I tend to make a lot of it and store it in old powerade powder jars. Would recommend adding scented oil into it tho.

And I can totally see Malto's doing this. After Dot has one of her cows or sheep butchered, she renders down the fat to use for all sorts of different things, hand creams, soap, and leather conditioner. I can very much see her standing there with her hands on her hips, telling her bot kids it's time to do their leather, very similar to telling her kids it's hair day.

2. Corn starch

corn starch is a cleaning genius that is effective for many different purposes. Clean your car windows with a mixture of 120g cornstarch and 1L water and then dry with newspaper. Corn starch can deodorise smells too when sprinkled and left to work its magic for about half an hour, I have used this so much after getting water in my car to get ride of the wet car smell. Bots love it almost like a facial mask and floor cleaner.

Corn starch is also good for removing excess car polish and wax. The last thing you need after giving your car a good polish is residue that will attract dirt more than it did before. This is definitely one of Knockouts' favourite things after he learns about it. And with a buff it can also help remove swirl marks on black cars.

3. Toothpaste

toothpaste can be applied to make our headlights shine brighter. When headlights start to get foggy, or get the yellow stain to them, it helps remove all the excess dirt and grime with warm soapy water and a cloth, then apply any cheap toothpaste and rub.

Don't get it on your cars paintwork!!, Apply tape or plastic around it or toy can make your paint bubble, chip or fade off.

4. Most Soda/Soft drink, Energy drinks and a few other drinks.

It's no secret humans have a large collection of flavoured drinks that many of us love. And it happens that many of them are actually very good at removing rust. Nearly every type of soda and Energy drink can be used for this purpose but so can Black tea.

Brew a Strong Cup of Black Tea: Soak a tea bag or loose tea leaves in water to create a brew, than soak what you want in it for a while then scrub it with some steal wool. So many of these things honestly scare the bots. How can a fleshy human body withstand drinking a rust removing agent.

"Jack, can I borrow some money?" Miko asked while hanging upside down on the couch as she watched him work. "No Miko I'm low on funds as it is, just brought some stuff" he calls back to her as he works over the small burner stove.

She lets out a groan before rolling off the couch to walk over to watch him. "What are you doing?, science experiment, cooking, drugs?" She shot off a collection of questions. "No I'm making some leather conditioner. Mom got given a whole lot of old bees wax and I'm using it with coconut oil and some scented oil" he hums back, not paying to much attention to her.

"Oh like that stuff you uses for your shoes and your mom uses in her car." Ralph asked peaking up from his computer. "Yea, I running low and well they had coconut oil on special so I'm making alot of it so I can store it" Jack calls back giving Ralph a smile.

"Oh that's so cool, wait do you think the bots would use it, oh. Do you think they have anyway of getting thinks like seat polish or stuff like that?" She asked before her mouth hangs open at the thought, she hadn't ever seen any of the bots do maintenance like that. Yes they had decontamination sprays and small work from Ratchet when things weren't working but they had never seen the bots really take care of themselves.

"Jack, do you think [Name] would be able to get some things for us, I have an idea, we have never seen the bots every actually look after themselves, we could do them a little spar day" she exclaims excitedly.

"Miko, maybe the bots haven't because they don't need it," Jack hisses under his breath. Before sighing. "OK, yes, they do, Arcee want admit it, but I do leave her a jar of the mix." He mumbles.

Miko punches the air in excitement. "Oh this is awesome just you wait!" She runs out of the small room to the rails as her eyes search for the person she was looking for. "[Name!] Your a mechanic Right?" She yells to get their attention.

They look up from their own car they had been doing maintenance on. "Ah I would say that but I know some stuff why?" They call back.

"Got an idea for when the bots get back but need your help." She smiles at them while skipping down the stairs.

The drive back out of Jasper towards the base is one filled with loud music and chatter from the young girl as she looks through the different items in the bags. "Wait what's all the energy drinks for?" She asked while looking up at them. "Well I remember hearing Ratchet complain able getting low on his rust removing agent and these bad boys work just as well, plus I drink them" they explain.

"OK... and the other stuff?" She questions. "It's all stuff I use normally for car maintenance, that way I don't have to spend a fortune on expensive stuff. You wanna get the bots a bit of a spa day, these are the things you need" they hum as they egt closer to base.

By the time they make it back inside the bots are chatting about and mingling with each other again, only looking over to see who had driven in. "Autobot may I please have your Attention" they call out. All of them pause their conversation as they turn to look and wait.

"Yes what can we do for you?" Optimus asked a slight rumble echoing from him. They hold up the bags of stuff. "I know you guys are undercover and technically don't exist, and I doubt Fowler gets you stuff for maintenance, so I've got some stuff to help out," they explain.

"SPA DAY!!!" Miko shouts, it catches Jack and Ralph's attention as they look over the guard rails. It earns looks form the collection of bots.

"Turst me" they hum while grabbing out a can of energy drink and cracking it. They take a large mouth fuel. "You guys haven't had a chance to really relax and have something outside of medical from Ratchet and I know you guys are now carting us around and your interior isnt as clean as you want it. So I have supplies." They state while pulling out the different things and explaining what they do.

When they get to the last two bags filled with cheap soda and energy drinks, a wicked smile crosses their face. "And these are for Ratchet and myself." They hum. "And why is that?" Arcee tilts her head slightly while her optics narrow, trying to figure out their purpose.

"They are for me because they have caffeine and Taurine in them and it keeps me awake and working for when Ratchet needs an extra hand for welding your wounds. They are for Ratchet becuase they are great rust removing agent" the moment they finish that sentence all the bots go quiet. Jack and Miko are trying not to laugh and Ralph just looks on in awe.

"Spit it out right now!" Ratchet nearly shouts as he moves to scoop them up, panic written across his face as the other autobots move out of his way. "Are you draft! Why woudl you drink Rust remover!" He nearly shouts panic over taking him.

"Easy Ratch! I ain't dying!" They shout, laughing over the panic in all their optics. "Ratchet, will they be OK?" Optimus asked, worried. Arcee shoots a glare at the kids who are now laughing so hard over the situation. Bulkhead is pacing back and forth. "This isn't good, what do we tell Fowler if they off-line!"

"Do you have any idea what that will do to your internal organs" Ratchet hisses and he begins fussing over them. "Uh yea, removes the rust" they state, trying their hardest not to laugh. They got to make the joke and they couldn't be prouder of themself.

"You don't have Fragging rust your an Organic!" He nearly snarls. "Ratchet fuck, settle down, it hasn't killed me yet and I've been drinking it longer than I've known you guys exist. Alot of our drinks can remove rust it's just something they do" they try to settle him down.

"No, absolutely no, you will not be drinking this in my presence ever. Do I make myself clear!" It has nearly the whole base stiff from how worked up he is. "Guess this would be a bad time to tell you about how everything we consume has the potential to kill us?"

Concept art sketches of TFP Bumblebee,Arcee,Ratchet and Bulkhead

*probable* tfp quotes

Miko - *stomps to the couch and throws herself into it*

Bulkead - Everything alright?

Miko - Shit day.

Bulkhead - Oh, uhh... wanna go for a drive?

Miko - All good. I just need to listen to some nice, soothing music to cool off.

*she puts on headphones, the muffled sound of Bodies by Drowning Pool making its way to the audial receptors of every bot present*

Smokescreen (to Bulkhead) - And we're sure she's not a serial killer?

Bulkead - ..................yes.

[crystalconjunx]

Oh my days, okay okay, why I haven't been following you and reading your works all this time is BEYOND me, but.... Could I request TFP Bulkhead interfacing with his longtime femme significant other for the first time? She's the type that is plenty confident in bed, and just loves feeling her partner's frame and ravishing him with kisses.

Probably because I just started this blog like a week or so ago lol. This is my first attempt at a writing blog like this so I'm still getting the hang of things. I appreciate all the love so far 💗

Bulkhead/Reader

"You alright there, Bulk?" You ask the fidgeting mech. You're straddling his chassis, resting on his abdominal plating and idly tracing the edges of the headlights on his chest with your servos.

"Y-yeah, I'm fine. Just a little nervous." He admitted. "Are you sure you wanna do this with me, Y/N? I know I'm not the smartest or most handsome mech around."

"Of course I do, Bulk." You comfort the mech with a soft pat to his broad chest. "You are handsome and smart, but you're also strong, and sweet, and kind." 

"Now I know you're crazy." He laughed, the big motion rocking through his frame as he moved underneath you.

"Come on, Bulkhead. Let me touch you? I've wanted to make you feel good for ages." 

"Y-yeah, I'm all yours, Y/n." He said. "But… what should I do with my hands?" He asked shyly.

"Why don't you just keep them above your head for now?" You ask, "And let me take care of you?" 

"Are you sure? I can, uh, do things for you— oh, Primus," he muttered, covering his optics with his fists as you ran your hands down the wide plating of his frame. 

He was a handsome mech. The thick armor underneath you was covered in scratches and scars from old battles. You traced a deep line on his chest with one servo and followed it into a gap of armor. 

His engine purred happily at the attention, a subtle vibration emanating from his frame that encouraged more. 

You slid up to his helm and laid against him, leaning down to kiss him while your caressed the sensitive edge of his helm with your thumb. It was a slow kiss, and he was still a little unsure, but his field was happy and full of excitement. 

Suddenly you felt his large servos move to hold your waist. His grip is strong and warm as he tentatively palms at your sides and slides them down to your hips 

"Sorry, Y/n," he said sheepishly. "Gettin' kind of hard to keep my hands to myself."

"Then don't," you smile. 

He smiles back, but his engine stutters and his optics flare as you tilt your head to press kisses to the sensitive cables of his neck and shoulder, gently letting your denta pass just under his audial before you pushed further down his body. 

You let the tips of your fingers and the soft protoform of your lips follow down the lines of his powerful frame. He was easily strong enough to lift you with one hand if he wanted to. 

But he didn't. He trusted you, was vulnerable and spread out underneath you and his engine warbled in delight as your pelvic plating brushed against his. He made no move to adjust you or himself. He was nervous but he let you take him as you wished. 

You finally dropped your hand to his pelvic plating, still sealed tight. His whole frame jolted when you cupped it, field flaring with sudden desire. He practically shot off the berth when you slid between his legs and pressed a wet kiss to the edge.

"You okay, Bulk?" You ask. 

"Are you sure you wanna do this with me, Y/n? I know we've been together for a long time, but I don't want you to do anything you don't want to."

"Oh, Bulky, I want to. I love you, ya big lug. Now just open up for me and let me show you how much." You say. His optics waver for a moment before he relents, transforming the panel away and letting his spike pressurize in front of you.

His spike is huge and handsome; a dark green head with a silver shaft to match the rest of his frame.

"You've been hiding this from me all this time?" You tease, letting your fingers trace the yellow biolights and soft mesh of the protoform surrounding the spike.

"It... never seemed like the right time," he said, straining not to move his hips into your touch.

"Well there's no time like the present." You tease, wrapping your hand around the shaft and giving it a shallow pump. It's too thick for your fingers to wrap around. "Frag. This is my spike now, Bulkhead."

He lets out a tortured groan and falls back onto the berth. It's going to be a long night for you both.

P.s. sorry if you wanted this from Bulk's pov. I had trouble figuring out which way to write so I went with reader. Hope you don't mind, but if you do, feel free to make another req sometime? I can always try again.

[hd-screamer-pics-and-gifs]

I scanned and translated the comic where Airachnid and Bulkead have to work together to escape a cave.

Comic is from the TFP magazine by Titan Comics.

Translated from German into English by me.

TFP Pokemon Teams: Team Prime

This was the hardest Transformers/Pokemon teams I've ever made! I never thought I'd be able to finish this, but I did, and I am pretty pleased with the final result.

Not much to say about these teams except three things:

I gave Optimus an Unown to symbolize his past as an archivist. And that Unown is the letter O for Optimus and Orion. Also, he has Cobalion to serve as a symbol of his leadership and title as a Prime.

I gave Bumblbee Keldeo because I thought it suited the young scout that would become a warrior and leader of his own team in the future.

I thought about giving Bulkead Terrakion and Arcee Virizion, but decided against it since I didn't really feel like they should have those pokemon.

Hope you like these teams and if have any thoughts, feel free to share!

The humans swap places

Hey there!

Humm already did Sari in TFP.

So here's Miko, Raf, Jack and June in TFA

All very shocked by these versions on the bots they know and June takes one look at these younger versions of the bots and MOM MODE ACTIVTES. She is team Mom and working with Ratchet to make sure these kids don't get themselves killed.

She finds out about Optimus self-esteem issues and all the stuff that happened with the others and Sentinel/ultra Magnus are on her list!

Jack and Optimus are going through whole leadership arc together and both building each other up and get on really well.

Raf is getting on really well with the other bots...and has managed to hack into the elite guards files. Longarm/Shockwave is trying to figure out who this hacker is...he's really impressed.

Miko...Miko gets on really well with team prim and this Bulkead but...but she also is a huge fan of the Decepticons, Soundwave especially but also Blitzwing and even Lugnut. Megatron keeps having to kick her out of their base.

Rarthet: Miko stop following around Decepticons

Miko:OH COME ON LOOK *Pointing at Soundwave* HE HAS A GUITAR I CAN JAM WITH HIM!!

Ratchet:Miko

Miko:Ugh come on it��s not like this Megatron ripped anyone’s voice box out or anything

Ratchet:…say what now?

...after hearing about the Magnus she might be trying to kind of convince them to change sides....or at least to take over the autobots.

Also…when the kids see where the Megatron/Optimus thing is going, they coughMIKOcough decide they are going to matchmake.

June and Ratchet are just despairing in the corner.

Sorry if this doesn't make sense very tired.

[weenwrites]

Hello! Can i pls have scenarios of tfp ratchet bulkead and you decide the rest, so what will they react to their s/o having fear of hights I forgot the phobia name :'v (its fine if you don't want to do this request :D)

Unfortunately I can’t think of much for this apart from how neither bot would put you someplace high up. I’m sorry but this doesn’t give me much to work with.

[needs-to-stop-looking-at-valves]

Can you do something where Optimus has to take care of a sparkling that is terrified of him. The reason can be up to you.

I gotchu anon (you didn't specify which op tho, so imma go with tfp)

“I can’t believe you just. Found him there.”

“Whatever Megatron was doing with him, it seemed to be a pretty big deal. It was a hell of a time getting him out.”

Bulkhead and Arcee looked over the small pod. They had just interrupted a decepticon mission, and for whatever reason, they carried a sparkling in a stasis pod. The team had brought it with them to base, and Ratchet was currently trying to unlock it. Miko was with them, and looked over at Bulkhead in curiosity.

“It’s...a small decepticon?”

“It’s a sparkling, Miko. Haven’t seen one in ages, honestly.”

“And a sparkling is...what, exactly?”

Ratchet mumbled as he failed another coding attempt. He wanted this thing out alive, and as such, meant he had to deal with the code panel. Tough combo, so far.

“It’s a young Cybertronian, usually with the CNA of two or more mechs.”

“So...like a baby? YOU GUYS CAN HAVE BABIES?!”

Ratchet swore loudly due to her outburst, nearly dropping the pod.

“Technically yes, we can. But it was considered a very old, very unrpoductive means of reproduction. It takes too much strain and energy, and takes too long to care for. Not to mention so much energon to raise. Once we started cold forging, getting sparked was a thing of the p-”

That was when the pod hissed, suddenly opening. Bulkhead, Arcee, and Ratchet leaned over in curiosity. That was when a helm popped out from the mist, and a yellow visor peered through. The little sparkling was very small, seeming to only have recently grown its optics, and nothing more past some nubby hands and legs. Ratchet was careful as he scooped them up, gently running a thumb over their frail, soft form. He seemed aghast.

“My...I haven’t held one of these in ages. You are a young one, aren’t you?”

The optics studied his features, before lightly cooing, almost in content. Ratchet nearly had a spark attack as Bulkhead suddenly yanked it from him, receiving an almost scream of delight from the newform.

“Aw! He’s kinda cute! Only ever seen these guys in pictures! He’s SO soft!”

Ratchet nodded, trying to help Bulkhead hold him correctly.

“Well yes, he’s too young to even have armor yet. He’ll grow, give it time. Hold his helm right, we don’t need him getting a spinal issue!”

Arcee knelt down to the pod, lightly brushing away some dirt.

“There’s writing on the side of this. It’s smudged. “L_AD_R O_E. Weird. Anyone got any ideas?”

“I got one. Arcee, hold him!”

“I don’t do the sparkling thing, Bulkead. I already got a kid, and that's Jack.”

Miko snorted.

“He didn’t just get friendzoned. Dude got momzoned.”

No one had time to ask that as Optimus walked in.

“You got the pod opened. Were your theories correct?”

“Indeed, Optimus. It was a sparkling. No more than a cycle old, at the latest. Rather affectionate however, even rather sociable.”

Miko kept playing peek a boo with him, seeming to reduce him to a giggly mess every time. Bulkhead chuckled, gesturing for Optimus to hold him. Optimus obliged, taking him into his servos. The sparkling blinked up at him, before suddenly tossing his helm back, and SCREAMING. It was a loud, painful noise that could only be ceased when he was snatched away by Ratchet. Optimus looked hurt, lost even. that was when Arcee stated the obvious.

“That kid is scared of you, Optimus.”

Optimus knew he was intimidating, but scary he was not. Optimus did not understand quite why, but for some reason or another, he assumed he merely reminded the sparkling of someone. 

Someone else big, and someone else scary.

[robotsandromance-blog]

Could I request some headcanons about the TFP 'bots with a cybertronian SO that is decently taller than them. Like, OP would just barely reach their chest plate (whatever that's actually called) and everyone else is just smol. ((I really just want some size difference fluff <3))

Optimus~ While he has gotten used to being the taller Bot around base, he can still remember life as Orion Pax when he often was shorter than others. You love teasing him while using your height against him sometimes and while he is a Prime, he still smiles (behind closed doors).Surprisingly enough, or not depending on you, you’ve saved his aft in combat before. Ironically picking him up and moving the both of you out of fire. He doesn’t dislike it but still worries about you risking yourself like that. When it’s just you and Prime, he lets himself relax and peppers you with smooches and affection. You have been known to just pick him up and hold him close.

Ultra Magnus~ Is not used to it. At all. He doesn’t mind it’s just odd for him to be looking up to anyone besides Optimus. Sometimes when you walk behind him, you’ll reach out and play with his shoulders, moving his arms back and forth. This is one of the only times you’ll hear and see him act undignified. He always yelps and spins to face you while subconsciously twitching his arms. PDA is a no no as sad as that is, but when it’s the two of you he honestly doesn’t mind you being the big person of the relationship and just enveloping him in hugs and kisses.

Bulkhead~ Loves this. He’s always been the heavy metal, the big bot, and well the Wrecker who’s great at breaking things. Now here you come, big ol’ bot and what luck! You two love each other. He doesn’t mind PDA at ALL. A lot of times he’ll sneak up (you always hear him coming but the poor dear trys so you act for him) behind you and wrap his arms around your waist. You return the favor by picking him up around his middle and gently swaying while you hug him. Smooches. Smooches all the time, everywhere. For pity’s sake, you punched the snot out of Breakdown and Bulkead kissed you for it!

Wheeljack~ Isn’t to excited when you first meet. Great. Another big, bossy bot. Aaaaannnd then he fell head over heels for you. He’s only the worst at PDA, second only to Bumblebee. But man! He loves it when you randomly attack him with hugs and or kisses. He’s small enough for you to carry around for a short while on your shoulders and he loves it despite how he may act when questioned. Turns out his finials blush and you do everything in your power to make them do it. Secret? Pick him up and smooch the top of his head and cheeks.

Arcee~ She really is not a fan of PDA. At all. But she understands that you can be quite affectionate at times so she’ll begrudgingly allow it (while inwardly screaming at how cute you are). A lot of times the two of you will disapear to some forgotten corner of the base and tell each other stories from your lives back on Cybertron. You’ll sit with your back against the wall and your legs crossed in front of you while Arcee will sit between them with your large arms completely wrapped around her. You two are a FORCE to be reckoned with on the battlefield. You were pretty good at lobbing back on Cybertron and you convinced her to give it a try with you if she trusted you. She did. She loved it. You threw her at so many cons and she was having a blast! Scared the slag out of Knockout when he heard distant screaming before getting knocked the frik out.  

Bumblebee~ Is the worst at PDA. Can’t exactly give you smooches but does he ever make up for it with nuzzles and head bonks! You guys will always be touching or hugging in some way while having time off. You love the cute blue hue that tints right under his optics when you cover his helm with smooches. He’s small enough for you to comfortably scoop up in one arm and hold him against you while you tell him battle stories (some may or may not be a wee bit stretched)

Ratchet~ Will not do PDA. Nope, nuh-uh. Your sweet moments are reserved for when no one’s around. You can’t help but wonder if that just makes them sweeter for the two of you. He’s got quite a bit of kibble but not enough to make it strange if you pick him up. Deny it as he may (and does, seriously Ratchet who are you kidding?) he loves being able to actually feel safe and protected in your arms. The two of you share sweet kisses and often times Ratchet will just relax in your arms and just lean his forehead against your lower chasis. These are short moments but treasured ones because neither of you have responsibilities.

I HAVE A MIGHTY N E E D FOR SMOL/TOL FLUFF!!! BLESS YOU YOU BEAUTIFUL ANON

[letsdiscussrobots-blog]

Hi! Anon from earlier asking about angst requests, thank you for answering so promptly! I was thinking about the hypothetical situation I proposed aaaand I wound up liking it better than what I originally had in mind. So, could we get the TFP autobots reactions to getting their human s/o back after the decepticons have held them captive for while? Assuming the decepticons haven't bothered to take proper care of the s/o? (lack of water, etc) (P.S. I adore your blog it's my favorite ever!!)

Aw thanks darling! I’ll do the main 5 so it doesn’t get too long.

Optimus Prime

He’d lead the rescue mission to get you. He’s never been so enraged in his life when he finds you in a cage- a cage, like some sort of animal- shaking and crying out to him. Careful not to harm you in the process, he rips the bars off the cage and reaches for you.

Very nearly cries when you cling to his servo. Megatron will be dealt with later-  oh, he will be dealt with. But right now you are first priority, and Optimus calls for an immediate groundbridge.

He wants to hold you during your medical examination, and Ratchet doesn’t have the spark to tell him no. 

He’s drowning in guilt as Ratchet reads off your chart “malnutrition, dehydration…” the list goes on. Optimus smooths a digit over your head and curls you closer.

For the entire time your bedridden he sits next to you. He just can’t tell you how sorry he is for letting you get hurt. 

The morning after you’re brought back you wake to Optimus kissing your head. He gently tells you to go back to sleep. As you doze back off you see him leave through the groundbridge and hear his vow to kill Megatron.

Ratchet

Usually he doesn’t go on missions, but nothing could make him stay behind on this one. The ‘Cons are sure he’s back on synth-en as slices through enemies and demands to know where you are. Nearly removes Starscream’s head for his smart mouth.

Your chains are nothing to him. He’s able to get them off without hurting you with his surgical instruments. He’s ever-so-gentle as he checks you over.

Isn’t even trying to hide his anger as he reads your vitals. He’s cursing the cons with every breath until he realizes your distress. Then he apologizes and quiets himself.

His bedside manner is a lot better after that. He lovingly encourages you to eat and drink slowly, praising you and petting your head as you take slow sips of water. He tells you how much he loves you and that he missed you.

He’s extra crabby to everyone else,though. He constantly scolds people when they’re too loud and shoos them away from the medbay. 

He sleeps in the medbay while you’re bedridden in case there are complications or you have a nightmare. 

Bumblebee

Is extremely quiet and hyper-focused on the rescue mission until he finds you. Then he frantically asks you if you’re okay and cuddles you close.

He feels like absolute slag. First Raf got sick and then you got captured; why can’t he protect the people he loves?! He switches between anger and depression.

He’s going to kill Megatron- he is. After Tyger Pax and Raf and you, does anyone else have more of a right to the warlord’s life?

Is extra affectionate with you. He nuzzles you and constantly tells you how much he loves you. When you’re feeling up to it he cuddles you while you watch your favorite cartoons.

He gets jumpy and protective of you. When you cough he immediately calls Ratchet in a panic. Bulkead will be too loud and he’ll angrily buzz at him to hush.

Arcee

The Cons put you in Arachnid’s “care” to specifically piss Arcee off. She wasn’t allowed to kill you, but you weren’t in the best shape when Arcee found you.

Arcee returns to the base with you and a few long, spindly appendages she “collected”

At first she switches between being possessive and distant. Ratchet tells you it’s because she’s so scared of losing another partner. She’ll come around.

She does come around after awhile and ends up mothering you. Did you drink plenty of water? Take you medicine? Do you need another blanket?

She kisses you goodnight and holds your hand while you sleep.

Bulkhead

Even scares his team on the rescue mission. He’s going full-blown Wrecker style, and he’s frighteningly emotionless as he tears Cons apart.

He finally returns to his old self when you’re in his servos. He holds you protectively and orders Ratchet to open the groundbridge and prep the medbay.

He freaks out over every injury you have, even if it’s just a bruise. Begs Ratchet to be extra careful with you and gets sent out of the medbay until your examination is over.

The IV you have to have unnerves him. It reminds him how fragile and small you are. It keeps you trapped in the medbay. It’s keeping you alive right now because those slagging ‘Cons didn’t give you water.

He gets you get-well soon balloons and ice cream and even a big fluffy teddy bear to cuddle when he’s away. 

At night he gives you kisses and tells you stories (happy ones of before the war) as you fall asleep. He camps out in the medbay so he can be close to you.

My many ailments have been kicking my tailpipe these past 2-3 days ngl 💀 but it doesn't matter how sore my throat is or how badly my ear aches, It cannot stop me from drawing people hugging 💪

I also took this opportunity to mess around with their tire placements and experiment with Wheeljacks decals. I plan to redesign them after having watched the whole show so this was a good little warmup! :))

Dang, i can imagine something like that

Extremely dumb transformers headcanon:

Cybertronians with car/car-similar alt modes have cupholders, but they dont know what they are.

Its basically like an appendix/wisdom teeth situation of "why the heck our bodies still have these" except its been so long they LEGITIMATELY have no clue what possible purpose they have.

Then one day Bulkhead gotta drive Fowler super early in the morning for a mission, and Fowler by reflex puts his shitty coffee cup in Bulkhead's cupholder.

And Bulkhead straight up goes like that cat with a flower hat meme, THE PROPHECY IS TRUE kinda freezes in place goes all oh my fucking primus it all makes sense now

Fowler is starting to think he accidentally got into a regular ass truck cuz Bulkhead been frozen in the parking lot for like five minutes
