More domestic au headcanons: MegOp fluff edition

Of the two, I like to think they balance each other out in a lot of senses, and I think this is what makes them clash while simultaneously making them work; Optimus is the gentle voice of reason behind Megatron's brash personality. I headcanon that they are extremely different in their day to day domestic life than out on the field and this is how

I genuinely think Megatron's primary love languages are gift giving and quality time while Optimus is more acts-of-service and words of affirmation

to expand on this and state my reasoning; I imagine that throughout Megatron’s life, he has barely been making ends meet, and to him, it’s comforting to be able to have the freedom to spend time with and spoil his partner with nice things every now and again since that wasn’t an option before

Optimus, meanwhile, has a lot on his plate; being a prime isn’t easy and he is always concerned that he has failed at maintaining his responsibilities. To be a Prime requires one to be an unwavering force, to be some level of “perfect.” Thus, I think that he loves both being praised, and he loves to praise to let other people feel good. 

If hypothetically they had to cook their own food, of the two, I think that Optimus would cook more and it would taste decent because he knows various recipes by heart, being a former archivist and knowing a lot about a lot of things.

out of pocket hc on my part; Megatron weirdly has somewhat chaotic housewife vibes to me and I feel like in a domestic au he would be really good at baking

Megatron will never ever admit that he is better at baking than cooking, though. Never ever. He would die before he let anyone know that he, Lord Megatron, a hardened energon miner, a former gladiatorial champion with hands that have destroyed many, many bots, is really good at making delicious confections with cute molding chocolate designs on them and that it is sometimes therapeutic (especially if he’s making something that needs to be kneaded; he just beats the shit out of it) and alongside poetry writing becomes something of an outlet.

I am conflicted about the baking headcanon because I feel like it could work in a few different ways but I also feel it doesn't work??? Idk it's like 3 AM and I'm very tired

The baking headcanon was totally not inspired by some really cute fan art of Megs and Poptimus in cute pink aprons

I imagine that treats were very very rare, especially because of his life in Tarn, and I imagine that (if cooking were a regular thing that needed to be done) many ingredients weren't that affordable or in as much supply so when he finally learned how to do it and he was in a stable environment (financially, emotionally, not imprisoned etc) he kept it as a hobby for himself. I feel like he wouldn't eat them himself (I can’t help thinking he doesn’t like sweets too much unless it’s tasted through Optimus’ lips lmao)

Megatron’s version of flirting/pseudo dates(pining edition); love poems (that he never sends and Optimus finds one day), longingly watching Optimus with the slightest gleam of admiration in his eyes as he’s working on something, covertly learning about Optimus’ interests (simply because he’s curious, he reasons with himself) so he can get to watch his eyes light up, arena training (I feel like he either goes easy on Optimus, or he goes extra hard).

lowkey develops an obsession but nothing too severe

Optimus’ version of flirting/pseudo dates (pining edition): it does not exist at first. the boy knows how others flirt but he does not, at first, because his oblivious ass doesn’t recognize Megatron’s crush and Megatron’s too stubborn to admit his crush. However, as time wares on, he tries to flirt, too. As an archivist, Optimus learns Megatron’s favorite subjects/poets/things to read and learn about and always has suggestions/recommendations on hand for him. I imagine the arenas are also a favored pseudo date bc he trusts Megatron in this au. Idk I feel like there's a lot of corruption kink/bad boy vibes in this ship but that's for another post. It becomes much harder as a Prime to pine/flirt/go on dates-but-not-official-dates, but he’s doing his best okay—As a prime, his flirting is more or less the same, but I feel as though he starts to get creative, even if becoming a prime has made him a tad bit more reserved and private in his affections.

Megatron’s version of flirting while they’re actually dating/sparkbonded?? (Note: I don’t know if flirting is the right word! Just cute things they do I guess?) It’s subtle but I imagine it’s not so subtle that Optimus does not notice. Some of the actions include but are not limited to: Doing the princess hand kiss every now and again. subtle looks as if Optimus is the entire universe before him, only to look away before his sparkmate can notice. (Rare) Hugs that last a little longer than usual. 

On that note; I feel like Megatron's hugs go one of two ways depending; bone-crushingly tight and somewhat uncomfortable, or very gentle and delicate, like he might break Optimus. This is especially true if the domestic au is one in which the war happened BUT the characters experienced different fates.

Optimus’ version of flirting/The cute things Optimus does while dating/sparkbonded include but are not limited to; gently kissing/tracing old scars (reserved for intimate, private moments), reciting lines of old love poems Megatron wrote (always gets him flustered), interlacing their fingers when they hold hands.   

Of the two, Optimus is better at damage control in comforting his partner. Megatron does his best but sometimes he may be a bit too harsh without meaning to be. I imagine they’re both closed off about how they feel, so their methods of comforting each other would be different than, say, if Optimus were comforting Bumblebee. 

self indulgent scenario; 

It’s been a long night. Prime’s work has kept him away from home for ages. Every now and again, filling his field is a profound slew of feelings, feelings Optimus is more than familiar with. His spark aches with longing. He vents softly as he stares at the screen before him, the words no longer making sense, like gibberish, as if it isn’t even cybertronian before. He can almost feel the old guilt of crimes long past and long forgiven, the dull ache of a life consistently patterned with mistake after bloody, violent mistake. Above all, his fuel tank squeezes tightly, so tight he can feel it in his chasis, so tight he almost can’t vent for the briefest of moments. A frown tugs his dermas behind his battle-mask. He sends a feeling of inquiery through the bond. He does not receive anything back. He opens his private comms. 

“Megatron,” he quietly greets, voice reverberating off the walls of the empty room. “You’re still awake?” 

He receives only a soft grunt in response. 

“Are you alright?” he asks, aware that he may very well not receive an answer. He is correct. The anxiety that had filled his field, that had prompted his tanks to tighten, dissipates just slightly. 

‘Optimus?’ Megatron’s voice is raspy. Like he had just slipped out of recharge. Optimus can hear the strain of his voice, quiet, crackling just slightly. ‘I...I must have fallen asleep.’

"Was it a nightmare?” he asks quietly, boldly, knowing it was better to simply ask as opposed to beating around the bush, casting a wayward glance over the city through the window, at the pretty lights, the weight of responsibility resting harshly on him once again. “I’m sorry, my love. I have received a last minute assignment that I must complete. I will be done soon.” 

The feelings in the field dissipate, slightly, though it quickly became clear why— He could already feel the metaphorical walls rising through the bond. 

‘Hurry up.’ comes Megatron’s groggy, brash order, something Optimus had gotten quite used to in the many vorns they had been together, and the comms click off. He can still feel a twinge of desperation. As if entrapped by phantom pain, Optimus can feel his mesh tingle, and he is almost overwhelmed by the desire, the instinct to abandon his post and rush home to his lover. But he knows he cannot do so, yet. 

Through the bond, after several kliks of silence, several kliks of non-movement, several kliks of never-ending paperwork and feeling the ebb and flow of feelings Megatron tries to hide behind the wall, Optimus sends the sensation of touch. On the other end, Megatron can feel the sensation of a digit ghosting over an old scar about his arm, from the arena days. He covers his eyes, fighting the urge to scope out his hidden stash of engex. 

Their shared field is filled with concern. Optimus turns off the screen. 

“My love,” Optimus begins into his end of the comm. “Light of my life.” He can feel the hesitation on the other end, and the field is filled with a sense of familiarity. Megatron can’t help but recall all of the old days, when he had regularly called his beloved the light of his life. “Your past does not define you. You are not your mistakes.” 

‘Darling,’ Megatron’s voice is a tad more understandable by then. Optimus knows he would never admit it, but he can hear the pain in his voice. The field is filled with the ghostlike sensation of digits intertwining with Megatron’s, servos wrapped around one another. ‘I ran into Starscream and Skyfire today.' Optimus must pause upon hearing that, his spark flickering just slightly. 'He looked at me with so much hatred.' It is a simple statement. Optimus can feel the field fillbonce again with dread. 'I have committed many wrong-doings, Prime.'

"I know, Old Friend." Optimus does not deny or defend. "It never gets easier."

'Yet you forgave me.'

"I did."

'How could you possibly forgive someone whose hands have caused so much destruction?’ Megatron asks, quietly, uncharacteristically. It is so unexpected that Optimus must reel for a moment, in a freefall of thought, knowing that his unmovable force of a sparkmate must feel truly tortured, if he is showing vulnerability such as this.

“The same hands that have caused destruction have also paved the way to rebuilding,” Optimus answers, stepping away from the computer, and collecting what few things he would need for his return home. “Your hands are hands of death and rebirth—and they have learned to love.” Through the bond, he sends old, vague memories. The soft, quiet moments, mostly. He can hear his lover exvent quietly. “You have made the attempt to rebuild from your mistakes. You need not suffer from them alone, anymore.” 

The other end is quiet, but the comlink has not been disconnected. Through the bond he can feel the hypothetical walls collapse some, behind them a mix of feelings.

“The time has come to rebuild, Megatron," It is a simple statement. He can feel the slightest twinge of hope. "Allow me to rebuild with you."

There is the slightest sigh on the other end.

'Thank you, Little Prime.' Prime is sure he can imagine the slightest smile cross the gunmetal grey faceplates. 'Come home soon.'

The comms click off. Optimus sends through the bond the sensation of a soft kiss to the knuckle. They would be okay, he means to say through the sensation. He would make sure of it. He receives the sensation back.

They fall asleep again, peacefully this time, when Prime returns.

TFP Optimus Prime, Bumbleee, and Shockwave with a human S/O who just casually mentions they've been to the Backrooms? Like they would always/sometimes mentions their past dangerous 'adventures' through countless Levels of the Backrooms, and would refuse to elaborate further (for fun, of course. The human would tell stories regardless) and the human is so deadpan/casual about it.

...Like imagine during a sppedway chase with the decepticons or the baddies, and the human would be like:

"Y'know, I've been chased like this before. In Level RUN For Your Life!. Different thing is that instead of Decepticons and cars, I gotta run through a straight hallway for 10 kilometers on foot whilst being chased by a horde of Smilers, Hounds, Skinstealers, Partygoers. Good times."

"the WHAT–"

I'm not sure if this counts as a crossover or no, so I'm sorry if it is—

A/N: Yipee ki-yay I like writing about the backrooms, so thank you!

[ Please do not repost, plagiarize, or use my writing for AI! Translating my work with proper credit is acceptable, but please ask first! ]

Optimus

It's needless to say that's concerned about your past experiences in this alternate dimension. He's not quite sure what to make of your attitude towards the backrooms, so he doesn't ask you much about it, but he does offer to lend an ear to let you open up about your experiences.

Bumblebee

He already thought that the shadowzone sounded bad enough, but to think that there's a whole 'nother dimension or world that you can fall into without the need of two groundbridges! He doesn't understand how you can be so jovial about an experience that nearly killed you, but he's amazed that you were able to survive there for who knows how long with all these things that want to kill you.

Since you seem pretty ok with talking about it, he'll ask you more about what it was like, how you got there, how you left, et cetera.. And if he ever learns that anyone can get stuck in the backrooms, he starts to get a little worried. What if you disappear there again? What if he disappears there? Ever since then he's started veering away from any "weirdly lit areas" or uncomfortable places in general, and it'll take him a while to let it go.

Shockwave

He's not as disconcerted as you might expect. As he studied spacebridge technology and all the niche and esoteric sciences one would need to comprehend in order to engineer a space bridge, he became no stranger to the concept of alternate planes of existence, and these experiences of yours only corroborate his hypothesis. However, according to your experiences it sounds like the backrooms are of little use or value to him as of now.

Such an unstable environment could be a trove of endless potential and knowledge, yet without a reliable method of guaranteed transportation between the two worlds, it's more of a liability than an advantage over the autobots.

Hi, is it okay to request in Transformers Earthspark?

so since we have a twin sister for TFA Elita-1, is it okay to have a twin sister for TFE Elita-1?

Buddy as the TFE Elita's twin sis.

TFE Elita's twin sis has the different/opposite of Elita, like Buddy's meek/shy, pacifist (yet has passive-aggressiveness), nurse, and/or mom friend. Or similar to Disney Belle from Beauty and the Beast.

"Buddy" is not their original name, used to be named "A-2 or E-2".

With Optimus (Orion Pax), Megatron(us or D-16), and Elita (Ariel) from their Pre-war times. You can put romance if you like

You can add this idea/s if you like:

takes place on pre-war Cybertron

TFE Elita's twin becomes techno-organic (like TFA Elita's (twin) ), or something else that is somehow related to Quintus Prime (something like, Quintus left his homeworld, using his Emberstone to seed life across the galaxy. Let's say there's an unknown/undiscovered planet related to Quintus Prime, and somehow Elita's twin landed/crashed/stranded on this planet), or not

then something happens to Elita's twin, became a missing/'dead' bot, she lost contact with her sis and friends and/or Cybertron. Later, she's found by the Decepticons, and she joins the cons, still has the same personality, also she didn't know there's a Bots Vs. Cons war happen before her missing

become a missing con, again, during the (nearly end) war on Earth, and only Megatron knows about it (ex. He and Elita's twin had a secret meet and he somehow found a stasis pod and hid her (in Witwicky near the Terran cave), or other ideas of your own)

And I'm stopping here for now since this long request, i'm putting the part two of this, and I'm so sorry if it's too much/been making too many requests

Thank you so much and also stay safe and healthy!

This... this is good.

A chance on writing Elita Ones's twin sister in a different way?

Count me in!

Friendly reminder this has nothing to do with TFA twin sister

Hope you enjoy!

Elita One's twin sister pre war backstory

SFW, Platonic, Familial, Mention of injury, Angst, Cybertronain reader

TFE

Buddy and Elita were the best of sisters.

But they weren’t always known as Buddy or Elita One.

Before the war, Elita One was known as Ariel.

Buddy’s original name was E-2.

Ariel was the more outgoing twin who always tried to get her twin to go outside of her comfort zone and to make more friends.

E-2 on the other hand was much quieter than Ariel, still held a strong presence with her.

Ariel was the one who introduced her to Orion Pax and D-16.

“E, this is Orion and D-16. Guys this is my twin E-2.”--Ariel

Orion waves at E-2 with a warm smile on his face.

E-2, who was partially hiding behind Ariel, waves back shyly.

Ariel gently pushes her forward at D-16.

D-16 smiles at E-2.

E-2 smiles back.

“Hi.”—E-2

“Hello.”—D-16

Ariel swings both of her arms around them all.

“I think this is the start of a beautiful friendship.”--Airel

E-2 gives them all a shy smile.

The four of them were a nearly inseparable group.

Orion and E-2 got along well, looking after Airel and D-16.

The two often had data pads they exchanged every other cycle and little chat about what they were about.

They were also the second voice of reason for Ariel and D-16 when they thought of activities or thoughts.

Ariel and D-16 looking at the tall drop off towers.

“I wonder what would happen if we went up there…”--Airel

“And what if we jumped off?”—D-16

“Exactly!”--Ariel

“Or!”--Orion

“And just hear us out, we DON’T jump off of the building, hmm?”—E-2

“We’ll be fine E.”--Ariel

“Ariel, just because I’m close to becoming an actual nurse doesn’t give you and 16 a free pass into a hospital.”—E-2

“Of course not, we have you and Orion for that.”—D-16

“D-16, you and I know that Orion is terrible at patch work jobs. Seriously just ask Ratchet.”—E-2

“Hey! I’m not that bad.”--Orion

“You fainted when you saw D-16’s injured servo. You’re not ready for any patch work.”—E-2

D-16 and E-2 got along like a house on fire.

Both wanting a better change for Cybertron, they found many things they could agree on.

Often D-16 would come to E-2 for help on his upcoming speeches and practice in front of her.

E-2, Ariel and Orion often went to D-16, now named Megatron, speeches about change on Cybertron.

The group could agree that changes needed to be made, but Buddy thought that maybe a more peaceful approach would be in the best interest of the bots.

This would soon cause a rift between the groups as Ariel backed Megatron’s bit forceful approach while Orion tried to play mediator.

It was around this time another one of E-2’s closest friends had offered her a chance to go on an expeditionary trip.

It was just to look at some planets then return to Cybertron.

Out of pure spite, E-2 agreed to go.

Anyways, he needed a medic with him in case something bad happened and E-2 had just finished with her tests and licenses.

“I’m sorry, you’re what?!”--Ariel

“Ariel calm down, I’m just going on a quick trip and I’ll be back in a couple of weeks. Two months the most.”—E-2

“Why can’t he just go by himself? Doesn’t he have a lab partner?”--Ariel

“His lab partner had something going on at the last minute and couldn’t go. Anyways he needs a medic in case something goes wrong.”—E-2

Ariel had a frustrated look on her face and crossed her arms.

Orion looked at E-2.

“When will you be leaving? The docking ports are notorious for taking long time to—”--Orion

“I’m leaving tomorrow.”—E-2

“…”--Everyone

“YOU’RE WHAT?!”—Ariel and Megatron

E-2 flinches at the loud noise.

“How can you leave at a time like this?! We need as many bots on our side as possible! Not galivanting through space like its some sort of vacation!”--Megatron

Buddy feels her servos tighten as her anger rises.

“This is not some sort of vacation Megatron. I’m being a good friend—”—E-2

“If you were a good friend then you would stay here!”--Megatron

E-2 takes a step forward, surprising all three bots.

“And if I don’t?”—E-2

Megatron angrily takes a step forward almost menacingly.

“Do you want to find out E-2?”--Megatron

E-2 clenches her servos and walks away.

“And where are you going coward!”—Megatron

E-2 turns on her pedes fast and angry.

“I’m going before I say anything that I might regret!”—E--2

E-2 storms off into the night.

Orion looks at his friends.

“Ariel?”--Orion

Ariel looks a bit conflicted.

“…She should be supporting the movement Orion.”--Ariel

Orion looks appalled before starting to walk in E-2’s direction.

“Orion? Where are you going?”--Ariel

“To check on your twin sister.”--Orion

E-2 was honestly still surprised to see them all at the gates for the launch.

Buddy said her goodbyes in hugs.

Orion hugged her tightly and wished her the best.

Ariel gave a halfhearted hug.

Buddy tried to hug Megatron, but he moved away.

Hurt, Buddy waved goodbye instead.

Megatron just huffed despite Ariel slightly jabbing his side.

Buddy grabbed her kits and began walking to the front of the door to wait for her friend.

Her friend came rushing in, giving her a hug, and thanking her for wanting to join.

“You’re a life saver E! Star had something wrong with his tanks and—”

“Is that him?”—E-2

E-2 sees a seeker lingering around the drop off point not too far from where her friends and family were.

“Yeah, that’s him. He wanted to see how the launch went.”

E-2 smiles at the seeker and waves at him.

The seeker looks a bit shocked but waves back.

“Are you ready to go?”

He stretches his servo for E-2 to grab.

She does looking up at her friend.

“Lead the way Skyfire.”—E-2

They made their way into the security area before reaching their pods and shooting into the starry sky.

None of them knew it was going to be the last time they were going to see each other.

The two came across the planet Skyfire had been raving about.

It was a smaller planet splashed green and blue.

It looked like a peaceful world.

Skyfire wanted a closer look at the planet.

E-2 was a bit hesitant, but she followed her friend downward.

Neither were expecting the harsh jet streams to be so strong.

E-2 felt everything about this being a bad omen and tried to radio in Skyfire to start getting out of the area.

Skyfire reported that his pods navigation systems weren’t responding.

E-2 tried to fly closer to Skyfire’s pod in attempts to attach a cord to get him out when her pod suddenly went dark and dropped.

E-2 screamed in terror as she plummeted to the planet below.

Skyfire managed to get out of his pod and managed to get to E-2’s pod opening it and dragging her out.

He tried to fly with her out of the Jetstream and back into space, but the winds proved too cold and strong.

Next thing E-2 realized was that she was falling again while the stream carried a screaming Skyfire far away.

She tumbled onto the cold ground below and rolled into a hole in the ground.

With all her tumbling, she accidentally caused a cave in.

E-2 hit her helm against a boulder before landing in a pool of cold water.

Her helm was bleeding profusely as she tried to stand up.

Trying to get up, she noticed a strange rock in the center of the cave and a small organic creature on her armor.

She didn’t notice the rock glowing until it was too late.

Her entire frame felt like it was on fire, screaming in pain.

When it was over, she fell backwards into the cool water, slowly closing her optics from the pain.

The last thing she thought about was Ariel, Orion and Megatron.

They were probably thinking she was going to come back home any day now.

She wanted to say sorry to them…

Sorry that she wasn’t coming back home…

…

Back on Cybertron the life signals on the pods had turned dark.

The station had called Orion, Areil, Starscream and Megatron to tell them about the freak accident.

Most likely faulty wiring on the pods.

Either way, none of the passengers survived.

Everyone was in shock.

Ariel then started to sob horribly.

Orion immediately came to her aid hugging her tightly trying to keep his own tears at bay.

Megatron just stood there in shock.

Starscream demanded to know whose fault this was.

He nearly clawed at the poor bot across the table if Megatron hadn’t grabbed him back.

He held Starscream noticing the shakiness of both of their frames.

There was nothing they could do now.

One of the biggest regrets Megatron had in his entire life was not hugging Buddy that day or trying harder to make her stay.

Elita regretted not being able to stop her twin from leaving and not saying love you one last time.

Orion regretted not going with her.

Maybe he could have done something to help with the faulty wiring or something.

They weren’t going to see her again, not until it was their time to go to the Allspark.

Until then… till all are one.

su·per·no·va

/ˈso͞opərˌnōvə/

noun

ASTRONOMY

a star that suddenly increases greatly in brightness because of a catastrophic explosion that ejects most of its mass.

It's the pain that hits him. Searing and all consuming that blooms over his frame. The it is gone just as quickly as it came. The feathered ends of the bond pulling away from his spark.

Optimus is sent reeling from the suddenness of it. An icy worry fill its empty place. This wasn't just the blocking of pain to keep the other from getting distracted. No.

No.

"Optimus! Y/n's been hit!" The Prime's frame moves before he even tells it to. There is a hollow ringing in his audio receptors. His mind here but not as he is running across the battlefield.

His men part and flood back into place behind him as he moves. The world nothing more than a blur around him in his desperatin to get to you.

"My spark. My spark please." Optimus calls out to you through the bond. Pushing back every bit of fear and worry just so he could hear you. He needs to hear you.

He needs you.

There is a frame on the metal earth. Energon spilled below it. Medics bow over the fallen frame. Calling and speaking to one another only the way another medic could.

It is Ironhide who lays a sprawling servo on his chassis. The old mech gently pushing back.

"Prime. Its." He could not finish. Didn't dare speak the words. He said nothing but gave Optimus a look that would haunt the Prime until the day he returned to the well. A look that did not suit the old war hardened mech.

Optimus was able to do little else but stare for the briefest of klicks. Unable to come to terms with what was about to be a devastating truth.

To lose ones sparkmate.

To lose the only other that knew your frame. Your mind. Your very soul and drive for life.

It meant a total loss of oneself when the other half passed. For when they were gone they took a piece of the livings ones spark with them. You are never truly whole after. And there will never be another who could fill its place.

Optimus stepped forward. Pushing away Ironhide's arm. He could see Chromia from the corner of his optic. The blue femme was shaking. Frame covered in energon not her own.

"Optimus. I. I'm sorry." Optimus turned towards her. "I tried but he,. He.he."

"That is all I could as for, my friend." Optimus was at your side now. The medics having moved away. Fluttering about your fallen frame and the Prime like a flock of startled cyber-birds.

"My spark." Optimus's voice was hollow. He fell to his knees beside you. Servo hovering over the wound on your chassis. Light from you spark was leaking through the jagged metal.

A cracked spark chamber. Fixable in any other circumstance. But to see another's light. Their very life. It.

"I am going to lose you My Spark." His voice strained. Broke. "I am going to lose you." Optimus drew you into his arms. One rested beneath your shoulders. His servo cradling your helm. Holding it close to his own bleeding spark.

"I am sorry." Optimus could barely hear you. Your normally tenor voice, nearly a sing song at time when you spoke, was gone. The life of it pulled away just as you were doing now.

"I didn't see them." Your servo followed a shaking arc to the one cradling your helm. "I didn't see them." You repeated. Curling your digits around Optimus's.

"There is no need. Do not apologize.I" For the first time in a long long while. Optimus was at a loss for words.

For what words could one speak as the one they loved laid dying in their arms?

There is none. And that is the grief of it all.

"I need you My Spark. I need you." The tears fell and around them the others moved. Turning their backs to give the Prime time to grieve. To keep them both safe as the war raged around them.

"I know my love. I know." You sputtere and energon fell past your lips. The light of your spark grew brighter.

Optimus sobbed. Grieved. Cried out to all those who would listen.

"You can not leave. I will not allow it." Optimus brushed away the energon at your lips. His chin trembling as he took in your flickering Optics. "I am Prime! You can't. You can't." Optimus rocked.

You took his servo. Pressed a kiss to his knuckles. Then cradled it above your chassis. Above your dying spark.

"Oh Optimus. You are Prime. But you are no god. No even you can pull back the strings of fate."Optimus's helm fell over your chassis. Desperate to feel the warmth of your spark one last time. He cried and rocked with you in his arms. Broken voice pleading for you to stay just a bit longer.

"My love let me rest. Return my frame to Cybertron." You pressed your helm to him. "But know that I will always be with you. My spark will always be with yours." Optimus turned his helm. Pressed his lips to the crown of your helm

"Optimus I will be with you in this life and the next. My soul will follow yours no matter where this life finds you." There was a surge of energy as your spark grew closer to failure. The volatile ball of energy searching for a way out. "And I will be waiting upon your return to the well. Promise me though. That you will life a long life. A happy one. And make memories for me."

There was the final surge of energy. Your optics over bright and your chassis glowed a brilliant hue. Blinding the Prime in your death.

You frame slackened. Helm spilling away from the Primes chassis. Wit it the final break in his spark. The total and complete loss. Torn smoothly and harshly away.

"I promise."

He felt nothingness without you there.

Optimus cried out. Yelling until his vocalizer broke and gave way to silence. Even then he grieved. Heml buried into you. Frame shaking and trembling as the bond dissipated. He cursed the name of Primus then Unicron.

Then spat on the name of Megatron for good measure.

Tenderly. Gently. Optimus lifted your frame for the last time. He laid your rapidly greying frame on a stretcher the medics supplied. Then turned towards Chromia.

"Who." It was curt. Hollow. Devoid of any feeling.

"Optimus." She spoke.

"Who, Chromia." The energon you spilled had not yet dried on his servos.

"Prime. We cannot, in any sensible-" Optimus cut Ironhide off.

"I do not care Ironhide. They took my sparkmate from me. And I will kill them all. "

"it shouldn't be so hard to believe it was some sort of ruse," he says as he stares into the reflective surface. a mirror, the earthlings call it — it just looks like a big sheet of glass, to him.

"well, of course it isn't easy. it is not as if we were always cruel with each other before everything," he continues as he peels away old paint, "but it would hurt far less if i believed what everyone else keeps telling me, even if they do not know what they are saying."

"it is most unfortunate that our paths must keep crossing like this."

"i cannot get enough of your optics no matter our circumstances."

sorry i got carried away i am horrid at requesting things..Decided id just thrust this into ur inbox Lawl. but also a combo of your and my posts has moved me from my slumber. sorry again

I'M SORRY IF I TAKE THIS AND RUN WITH IT IN A DIRECTION YOU DIDN'T MEANNN I'm just ITCHING to write thisss!!! Also, don't apologize!!! YOU'RE JUST EVIL FOR ASKING ANON!! Now I can't stalk your page and read what you have written qwq (if you post.)

--------------

Optimus stared at Megatron through what should have been one-way window. Yet knowing full well Megatron could see him.

The Prime was at first surprised to learn that Megatron had been captured by MECH. Embarrassingly enough, he had already thought up of countless arguments and counterarguments on why it would be a good idea for him to rush in to save — prevent MECH from dismantling Megatron and using him to create weapons or other devices that could be of equal danger, if not more so to the Autobots.

Things are a blur now to Optimus as he stands alone before his enemy. Ratchet, the only other bot to join him, standing outside to guard and warn Optimus for any ambush or trap.

"Optimus," Megatron purrs. "Rushing to save me after getting my distress signal? Please," His small movements somehow emphasized the red splotches on the ground. Dead humans. "You really shouldn't have."

"Megatron." Optimus glares. "Why are you still here? You could have blasted these walls and escaped long before I arrived. Is this a trap?" He decides to cut to the chace.

Megatron, for once. Remained eerily silent. Staring at Optimus's optics with a serious, pondering look. "Well, something seems different about you, Prime. Can't quite put my digit on it.."

"Don't change the topic, Megatron! Answer me." The Prime stepped closer to the glass. Wondering if he should just break it to get to Megatron.

"Ah, yes. I recall now.. I think it has something to do with these late night outings of yours?" Megatron grinned widely once he saw Optimus very visibly still.

"How much do you know."

"Enough." Megatron purred, walking to the flimsy excuse of a glass wall that is keeping him from Optimus.

"What are you planning?" Optimus asked again, clenching his weapon. His fighting spirit still strong. It doesn't matter what Megatron knows. Just what Optimus will do.

Megatron grinned wider, and before he could say anything, a bright explosion made Optimus unable to see for a few seconds.

Chaos ensued.

Anonymous asked:

I know you said you wanted to write some angst so what about reader being Steve's BFF and he dies in the upside down saving her just basically switch eddies ending with Steve's and eddie feels so guilty and bad bc he's never seen reader act this way before so he tries to be there for her the way steve was only problem is he's got feelings for her but he's scared to tell her bc he feels like it's bad timing so he practically does everything steve did for her plus more and they slowly transition from friends to more than friends without even having a talk or realizing it yet you can end it how you like just a lot of angst and some hurt/comfort

Angst

" Steven Harrington, what do you think your doing. Get your ass up here" you hissed, fear in you eyes as your best friend stared up at you. His eyes looked over to Eddie who begged him to come back up the rope. It was you, Steve and Eddie leaving Robin, Nancy and Dustin to kill Vecna.

Steve swallowed the lump in his throat as he looked out in the open of the Upside down and looked back up at you. Your eyes plead for him. " Harrington"

" I'm so sorry bug, but I'm buying us some time" he cuts the rope between Hawkins and Upside Down. " Take care of her" he says to Eddie before he's out of sight.

" Steve!" you shouted. Looking up at Eddie in panic, " We need to go, he can't go alone. He can't do this" your hands shook feeling the tears. You weren't ready to lose your best friend. Not today. Not ever.

Eddie scramble to his feet as he gripped his head thinking. You gripped on his battle jacket and shook him, " Munson. I don't care how we get through the gate but he can't go alone..I can't leave him.."

Eddie's heart sinks hearing your pleading as he looks around as you two worked together to get through the gate. He was determined to get to Steve.

Your hands grip on the swing set as you moved your feet back and forth. The only sound you heard was the crunch of sleeves as someone walked up to you. Your eyes locked with a pair of brown hair and the softest, shiniest hair you had ever seen on a boy.

" Hi" he greets you. In his hands he held a Transformer closely to his chest. " Hi" you sent him a small smile eying his Transformer. He waves in the air.

" This is Optimus Prime" he holds out the transformers arms as a sort of way to you. You can't help but giggle and cover your mouth with your hand. The boy smiled as you as he sat on the swing near you.

" What's your name?" you asked him. He held the Transformer back to his chest. " Steve" you awed at his name finding it really easy to say and you liked it.

" My name is Y/N"

" Do you want a push?" he asks, holding his transformer in his hand by the arm while he stood behind you. " I would like that" you said swinging your feet in the air. Steve gently pushes you but it's not much of movement. He stops for a moment as he frowns.

" Hold him" he hands you his Transformer into your hands as he places his hands on your back and pushes you with all his might.

That was the very first time you met Steve Harrington.

You drop down after getting over the gate with Eddie by your side. In your hand you had your weapon while Eddie had his as the both of you ran to find Steve.

Steve kept fixing his hair in the mirror, frowning each time he ran his fingers through his hair. You sat on his bed with your back to the wall watching him.

" How much spraying are you going to use with that, Harrington?" In his hand he had the Farrah Fawcett spray. He kept running his fingers through his hair adding more pumps than you had counted.

He was being ridiculous. He whined as he stood back straight and sighed.

" I'm never going to get it right" he turns to face you as he waved his hand around his face. " Does it look good or did I over did it?"

You eye the mess on his head as some strands stick up and it doesn't look like it was working for him. You tried not to chuckle at him and the way he was pouting.

" Do you need help?" His shoulder slumps as he nods, hanging his head. " Let's rewash your hair because who knows how sticky your hair is by now. You weren't suppose to use that many pumps"

He threw his hands up as he let you drag him to the bathroom where you washed his hair in the sink. His hair had outgrown and was the softest it has ever been in his life.

The both of you were starting high school soon. Steve had to get his hair right for his image if he wanted to be popular.

" You are suppose to use the shampoo and conditioner, and when your hair's damp — it's not wet, okay? When it's damp, you do four puffs of the Farrah Fawcett spray. Okay?" After you washed his hair, he stood up with a towel on his shoulder as he ruffled his hair with the towel.

Steve got an idea as he shook his head side to side as little drops of water from his hair got all over you.

" Steve!" you squealed. He laughed as he stopped and glanced down you.

" Thank you for doing this, I don't know what I would do without you"

" I'm always going to be here for you, Stevie"

This was the very first time you called him Stevie and it brought nothing but joy in his heart.

Your body stiffs as you spotted a body on the ground a little further ahead. Eddie races to catch up with you as he halts in his step.

" Why did you stop?" he asked. He turns his head to your line in vision and his face goes place as he spots the body laying on the ground. Your breath hitches as you raced towards it.

Gasping and dropping onto your knees seeing Steve gasping for his own breath. He turns his head as he spots you in the corner of his eye.

You take a hold of his head as you support it in your lap. Tears ran down your cheeks.

" Steve..." you say his name, your voice cracking. His hand slowly comes up asking in silence for yours. You grab onto his, holding it and he brings it to his chest slowly. You feel the blood wetting your fingers.

The demo bats around him had fallen to the ground and he doesn't look too good. The look on your face tells Steve that it wasn't good at all.

" That bad?" he asks through his mouth spilling blood onto his chin. " Stevie" you whimpered. " We need to get you to the hospital" his other hand comes up to your face, smearing blood on your cheeks as he moves the hair away from your face. He winces at how much he's trying to stay alive.

" No" he shakes his head, his own eyes getting glossy as he stares up at you.

" Thank you for being the best friend a guy could ask for" the hand that is on your cheek brushes your chin with his fingers. " You were always taking care of me"

More tears ran down your face, " don't cry.." he says. " I had the best years of my life, having you as my best friend. That's all I needed and wanted" he says.

His eyes look over to Eddie, " Take care of her, man" Eddie's crying and shaking as he nods making a promise. Steve turns his eyes to you and takes the moment to admire how pretty you are.

" Best-" Steve doesn't get to finish his sentence as the light leaves his eyes as he stares straight ahead. You sniff as you call out to him, letting his hands go as you grip on his shirt and shake him.

" Steve!" you shouted, shaking him. " Steve Harrington!" you shake him again, more tears spilling as you yell out to him. " Steve fucking Harrington!" you shout putting your head on his chest not hearing a heart beat. " Come back to me! I need you!" you beg as you shake him.

But he's gone.

" No!" you shout looking up at the red sky in anger feeling your heart in two. Two hands place on your shoulder causing you to shoot a glare at Eddie.

" We have to go sweets" he says. You shake your head, glaring at him.

" I'm not leaving him here" you say motioning to Steve. " We have to go Y/N" he says, wrapping his arms around you and lifts you up off the ground. You scream and thrash your legs around begging to be left with Steve.

Eddie's own heart breaks as he pulls you towards the gate. Robin, Dustin and Nancy run your way seeing Eddie pulling you.

" What happened? Where is Harrington?" Robin asks as she looks around. She sees blood on your hands and they all began to worry. Eddie sat you on the ground as you angrily wipe your tears away.

" Steve sacrificed himself to save us" Eddie says. All heads turned to you as you stood away from them, sobbing with your shoulders shaking and hair fanning over your face that they don't see how much this hurts.

Robin is in disbelief as tears fill her eyes. Dustin grips his head and shakes, not believing it.

" Is it true Y/N?" Nancy asks. You sniffed, " Yes. He's gone and I couldn't save him.

Steve arms wraps around you as he leads you into Hawkins High School, making fast friends with Tommy H and Carol as the four of you walk through the doors. Heads turn as the four of you walk through the halls. Sooner than later, you all are the talk of the school and everyone wants to be friends with you.

One particular girl catches Steve eyes as stands with her books in her hands by the locker. She shyly looks at him with a small smile on her face and he smirks at her, throwing a wink.

" Seriously?" you ask him, rolling your eyes. " The nerd?" Steve turns his head as he playfully pushes you into Tommy. " Shut it, you" he says with a soft smile on his face. " She's cute" he says, shrugging. Steve ended up telling you he has a crush on her and was going make her his.

When they became a couple, Nancy was hesitate about how close you and Steve were.

" She's my best friend, she's a big part of my life" Steve says as he turns to look at you, an arm wrap around your shoulder, " you don't like well, tough" he says to Nancy.

This was the first time you felt special from Steve.

Steve would always drive you to school, home and any other place your heart desired. Steve would always plan movie night with you and you got the snacks. Steve would always be the number on who call you if anything happened and you'd call him when you could not sleep.

It's been a couple of weeks and you took the time to walk into his room.

Sitting on his bed letting your tears run down your cheeks and gasping for air feeling your heart clenching at the sight of his room, his scent, everything in it and it brought many memories to you. They all left him there as he laid there, alone. He didn't deserve to die the way he did and you couldn't do anything about it.

Hands covers your face as you sobbed.

" I'm so sorry Stevie.." you mumbled.

The phone rang besides your bed as you turned down the music you were listening to and picked up the phone.

" Hello?" you asked. The other person on the other line sniffled. " Stevie?" you asked. He would only call you like this when he needed you, he always called.

" She doesn't love me" he says. " I'm so stupid" Steve says.

" I'll be right over Steve, hold on" you hang up the phone. You shut off the music and grabbed your keys as you headed out the door to Steve's. He didn't live far from you as you ran all the way there.

He gave you an extra keys to his house. His parents knew you always came over unannounced sometimes too.

" Stevie?" you asked. " Here" he responded through his tears. You headed to his room and opened the door seeing him sitting on his bed, hunched over with his head hanging.

" Oh, Stevie" you dropped to the ground in front of him and wrapped your arms around you. Your fingers combed through his hair, trying to calm him down. He buried his head into your shoulder and soaking up your shirt with his tears. Life was unfair to him but he had you to hold onto.

" She didn't deserve you. She doesn't know what she's missing out on" Steve pulls his head away from your shoulder as he looks at you. He brown eyes are puffy red with a small pout on his face.

" I thought she would love me back. Am I not good enough?" He asks.

" You're more than good enough, Stevie" you reached and wiped his tears with your hands, collecting the new ones that are spilling. " You're sweet, thoughtful, funny and one of kind."

" Do you mean that?" he asks, shifting on the bed as he sat up straight. You nodded.

" every word" his arms wrap around your waist when you got up and rest his head on your stomach. Your fingers run through his hair as you stayed with him like that.

Time like these, Steve was lucky to have you as his best friend.

He was gone. He wasn't going to have his dream of having six nuggets and a family lichee dreamed. He was never going to be able to hug you, listen to your jokes, have movie night with you, tease you, laugh or send a smile at you. He wasn't going to drive you to school and home. You were never going to see him again and it torn you apart.

Just like that, he was taken away from you. Your best friend. The one person you trusted and most cared about.

The transformer sits on top of his dresser as a reminder that you were his first friend, his best friend and the person he shared everything with. He stood there, broken arm and a little rusty as it stand at you.

You made your way to his dresser and took it in your hands.

" why couldn't it be me? Why did you have to do that?" you mumbled asking into the unknown. You threw the Transformer against his wall in anger as new tears streamed down your cheeks. You fell to your knees in front of his dresser.

" Please come back to me, Stevie" you whispered into the air as if someone was listening to you. But no one was there. You were met by silence.

The yellow long sleeve peeks out from one of the drawers that was opened and you grab it in your hands feeling the softness of it. You bring it up to your nose and sniff it as it holds his scent.

You were never going to be able to see him in the yellow long sleeve shirt that you bought for him one day seeing it at the mall. It fit perfectly on him.

You sat there not knowing for god knows how long. But you didn't even paid attention to the door opening and closing as your name was called through the Steve Harrington's home. Footsteps came closer to the door and the door opened revealing Eddie on the other side.

His heart cracks into two seeing the sight of you holding onto Steve long sleeve. He kneels down on the floor as he places a hand on your shoulder.

" Sweetheart?" he calls out to you. He had hoped he could grab your attention with his touch. But you shrugged it off like it burned you.

" Sweets?" He tried again as he touched you but this time you shot up in a sitting position and glared at him through your dry tears.

" Don't touch me" you shook your head. Eddie frowns as he sits there not knowing what to do. Honestly he has never seen you like this before and it scared him how you were slipping away.

" You haven't spoken to anyone in days. We all miss you, I miss you. You can't keep doing this to yourself" Eddie says.

You scoffed, " Steve died or did you forget? My best friend died in my arms and I couldn't do anything to save him? He was your friend too, Eddie"

Eddie nodded.

" Let me take you home, sweets" he says reaching his hand out to take the long sleeve out of your arms but you clutched it to your chest.

" If you think for a second, I will give you this than your highly mistaken Munson" he nods as he hold out his hand for you to take. You eyed the ring clad hand and look up at him. His brown doe eyes are filled with sadness. For you.

He is mourning Steve in his own way but he promised Steve to look out for you. He had been pushing his own feelings deep down for you, too afraid to tell you the truth. You were beyond beautiful and Steve saw right through him.

" If you date her, promise me to never hurt her. She always looking out for everyone else, besides herself. She needs someone like you look after her" Steve would say. He kept reminding Eddie how much you needed someone to care for you.

Your parents haven't done much of being in your life. It felt like it was you and Steve until you met the kids and the rest of the gang. You felt like you belonged.

" I love her, Harrington" Steve chuckles.

" I know, Munson. My best friend deserves the world"

You truly did, you looked after the kids like a mother would. They called you the mother of the group. You had helped Robin get together with Vicky, the love of her life. You had helped Eddie with his deal sometimes. You had kicked Jason Carver's ass every time he picked on Eddie. You had tutored the kids in the classes they needed helping. You covered Steve shift in Family Video when he had a date. You had helped him move on from Nancy, but he still was hung up on her.

You looked out for everyone but yourself. You were last.

Eddie pulls you up from the ground as you clutch Steve's long yellow sweatshirt in your hands as he leads out of the house.

" I miss him" you say, closing your eyes for a moment.

" Who knew, Stevie after we both graduated that the basketball team would win a championship game" you teased. Steve rolled his eyes with a smile on his face.

" Very funny, bug" he playfully pushes your shoulder as he grabs a stack of films to put back on the shelves. " Heard you got a hot date tonight, Stevie?"

" He has been talking about her non stop, my ears a ringing from it" Robin says from behind the counter. Steve throws her a glare.

" Yeah? You really like her?" Steve shrugs. " She's nice" Robin snorted.

" Nice like nice nice or nice like you just want to get laid kinda nice?" Steve glares at you as he playfully hits you on the shoulder with the film in his hands.

" Could you not" he says, shaking his head. " Oh you know you love me, Harrington."

" Sadly I do" he says as he puts another film on the shelf and moving to the next one. " Excuse you?" you shoved him into the shelf. He groans as he rubs his shoulder.

" You know I love you bug, you're my best friend"

" And what am I, chopped liver?" Robin asks.

" We love you too, Robin" both you and Steve say together.

" I miss him too, sweets" Eddie buckles you in the passenger side of his van as he moves your hair behind your ear. He watches for a moment the way you look down at the sweat shirt like it was going to vanish. He runs to the other side after shutting your door and starts the van as he drive off.

He keeps looking you from time to time as he's driving down the road to your house. He has been to your house a couple of times for suppoingly study session, smoking together, watching a movie and when you cooked for everyone. He had not had hot meal in so long.

He parks the van in front of your car.

" Sweets" he calls out to you. You turn your head as you look at him.

" You're home" He motions to the house. You look at it knowing you were going to be alone and you didn't want to be alone.

" Can you stay with me?"

" Of course, sweets" he shuts off the van and makes his way over to the other side, bowing as he opens the door and holding out his hand. " M'lady" you can't help it but let the edges of your mouth lit up and grab his hand.

You don't let go off his hand and his heart flutters at your touch as you lead him into your house. The house is silent.

" Are your parents not home?" you shake your head, " Some trip somewhere" you shrugged heading to your room as you sit at your table looking down at the paper in front of it.

" Give it back!" you wined as you reached on your toes to grab your homework for English class from Steve. He waved it over his head with a smirk. He had read over your shoulder about your poem that you have written.

" Just admit it Y/N" you shook your head putting your hands on your hips as you glared at him. " No" you say jumping in the air to get the paper but he moved it to the other side.

" You can do better than that"

" Harrington, give me my homework" he laughs as he shakes his head." Not until you admit your secret crush" he wiggles his eyebrows.

" I like Eddie. Are you happy now?" you say throwing your hands in the air. He hands you your homework, satisfied with your answer.

" Very much" you swatted his chest with a small glare, " Jerk!" he gaped at you as he tackled you on the bed. Your homework forgotten as he raises his hands to tickle you.

Eddie takes off his jacket and vest as walks into your bathroom looking through various bottles to throw you a bath. While you hear him in the bathroom, your eyes drop on the piece of paper that was your homework and grab it shoving it into the little drawer you had.

No one but Steve knew that you liked Eddie. It was your secret he kept.

Eddie walks back out to your room.

" Come on, sweets" he holds both his hands out for you to take. Your eyebrow knit together but you take his hands and let him lead you into the bathroom. Your eyes drop onto the bath he had draw filled with bubbles.

It was the nicest thing that anyone had done for you since Steve.

" For me?" you asked. " You didn't need too" he waves his hand like it's nothing and kneels down getting some make up wipes and turns to you.

" No offense sweetheart but you look like a raccoon" he giggles as he points to your eyes in the mirror that is behind him. You shove him in the chest playfully and look into the mirror and indeed you had your make up running down your cheek.

He started to wipe away the make up that ran down your cheeks mixed with your dried tear stains, his tongue poked out as he focused on getting your make up off.

" Since when do you know what a make up wipe is?" you teased. He sticks his tongue out to you as he finishes it. He throws the used make up wipes into the small trash you had in your bathroom. You watch as he takes the hair tie from his wrist and holds your hair, tying it up into a messy bun.

He inspects his work like it's art he has done.

" Thank you" he closes his eyes as he turns around giving you the sign to undress and he wasn't going to peak as much as he wants to. But he respects you as he waits for your signal to let him know. His ears pick up hearing the water as you sit down in the bath.

The bubbles covering you.

" Eddie" you call out to him. He removes his hands from his eyes.

You looked so cute sitting there with your hair up in a bun. He has taken notices of Steve's sweat shirt on top of the sink. It's there for you as a way to have Steve with you still. Eddie doesn't press about it as he kneels down next to the bath.

His hand reach out for the loofa as he wets it in the bath and gently runs it over your bare back. Your arms wrap around your legs with your head down. Your eyes locked with his.

" Thank you" you say. It was a thank you for taking care of you when no one else took the time to check on you and do this for you. Steve used to give you baths too, he would wash your hair too when you felt like the world wasn't right or your mind was too much.

He continued to run the loofah on your back and down your arms. He didn't need to say anything else. He was going to keep his promise to Steve.

Eddie starts to hum as he washes you in the places he could, letting you soak in the water and taking the time to think about how Eddie was taking care of you. The water runs cold and Eddie help you get out with one hand covering his eyes that he wasn't going to see anything.

He puts the bottles he used away while you got dressed in your room with your arms still clutching onto Steve's sweetheart. Eddie walks back into your bedroom seeing you in a pair of shorts and the yellow sweatshirt is on you now.

He doesn't get jealous of the sight of the sweatshirt understanding this was your way of having Steve with you still. You patted the space next to you on the bed, Eddie crawls in with one hand under his head and the other opening for you to settle next to him.

You put your head on his chest, hearing his heart beat and feel his arm wrap around you as his fingers run up and down your arm in comfort.

Eddie didn't need to say anything else knowing you needed time and little actions like this. The same actions that Steve did for you, Eddie was going to do as a reminder that Steve never really left. He was still there.

You nuzzle your nose into his chest hearing his heart rate speed up, glancing down at the sweat shirt and looking up at Eddie who was already looking at you.

Your eyes let him know you were thankful to have him and he returned with his own answer in his eyes, that he was going to be there for you no mater what even if he had to cancel Hellfire to take care of you.

You were important to him.

" Promise me you'll find someone to be happy with. I can't stand you shutting yourself down like this. You deserve someone to hold your hand, to hold the door open for you, to take you on date etc. I see the way you look at the dates I have, the way others at parties look and I know deep down you want to be loved" Steve says.

He was right. You did.

" Who would go for someone like me? Someone like this?" you motioned to yourself. Steve shook his head, as he scoffed.

" I don't wanna hear you talk about my best friend like that. You hear me?" you nodded, giggling.

" You'll find someone Y/N, you're special and any guy would be lucky to have you as his. Trust me" Steve says. " Now help me with this mess" he motions to the spilled hot chocolate on the floor.

" This wasn't me" you giggled, pointing to it. Steve gives you a look with the rag in his hands and his hands on his hips. " Scours honor" you say crossing your heart. " It was Dustin" you pointed to the curly hair boy as he walk into the room.

" Hey what?" He says, stopping in his tracks. Steve shakes his head, " Fine. Out then" he says pointing to the living room. " Hey! I was-" Steve points to the living room again, scolding you.

You pout as you hang your head and just before you leave Steve tell you he loves you with a smile on his face.

" I love you too, even when your a pain in my ass " he rolls his eyes and that was the last time Steve told you he loved you and the following day you were gearing up to end it all with the Upside down to have you lose your best friend.

" Goodnight Eddie" you mumbled, staring into the darkness.

" Goodnight sweets" Eddie says as he places a kiss on top of your head. You swallowed the lump in your throat, " I miss you Stevie" you whisper into the air. Eddie hears you as he squeezes you.

A breeze of air kisses your cheeks feeling as if Steve has heard you making you shiver as you cuddled closer to Eddie. You turned to the other side to look out the window as a tear fall down your cheek.

How were you going to do this without your best friend?

[lord-squiggletits]

This might be bc of my personal reading of exRDI/OP bc I'm pretty sure the authorial intent was to just write Optimus as having some fall from grace/borderline tyrannical edge but like

I really kinda wish the story had been written as more of a political intrigue, almost GOT-esque thing (sorry for the cliche) where like, instead of Optimus being written as the narrative's scapegoat to be condemned both by the characters in universe and the meta narrative, he was just written as...morally gray? With more of a focus on "this is a shitty situation where no decision is good" rather than having Optimus just be some sort of white guilt stand-in of how oh, he's a Prime so that means the most important part of his legacy is how Cybertronians are awful and he's no better than the other ones etc.

Like Barber doesn't write Optimus as EVIL or in a way where he's unilaterally condemned as a person who did more harm than good, it's just imo the vibes of the story is more of a dark political/war story where no person is clean and there's no solution to the war that doesn't involve moral compromise. Instead Optimus is forced to make these moral compromises but then everyone else in the story loses their absolute shit and immediately starts calling him a tyrant or a fascist or something.

Like idk, it was partially an issue of the set-up. Because for one, it was really hard to take it seriously when the humans went "omg he's annexing Earth the Autobots were literally the colonizers all along!" (I think the dialogue was written almost exactly like that too sjdjsidn, so bad dialogue was also another issue) yet were perfectly fine working with the Decepticons led by 1. Soundwave who personally helped execute the attempted invasion of Earth and 2. Galvatron who constantly talks about wanting to kill these puny organics. I feel like I would've been able to take humanity's fears of being colonized again more seriously if like, they hadn't literally teamed up with The Colonizer Faction just bc Soundwave promised they were good guys again. So really it's just execution + plot holes + bad dialogue.

And another thing about the annexing of Earth specifically that I wish got talked about more (mostly by the fandom more than in universe) is that like. Basically the reason Optimus did that was because the neo-Decepticons were planning to invade Earth again, but since he's not actually a formal political leader any more he has no power to actually force a war to stop them/request military back up. But also, Starscream didn't give a shit about Earth and neither did the Council of Worlds, so appealing to the government for help defending humanity wouldn't work either. So Optimus annexing Earth was an absolute clusterfuck yes, but in a way it was also kind of a shrewd political move to force Cybertron to dedicate a spot in the government for humans and thus grant humans a say on Cybertronian politics.

What I mean is that in a story/with an author like that of GOT, where the setting is grimmer and every character is morally ambiguous, I feel like Optimus would've had way more room to be an interesting and compelling character. Bc then instead of the story immediately screaming "ALL HAIL OPTIMUS DID YOU KNOW OP ANNEXING EARTH TO THE COUNCIL IS BASICALLY THE SAME AS MEGATRON ATTEMPTING TO GENOCIDE EARTH," Optimus could have been played around with more as a political figure making the shitty decisions in an effort to stop another genocide. Instead of just unilaterally condemning Optimus and immediately comparing him to fucking Megatron of all people, there could've been more focus on the politics of it with maybe some sort of theme of how "being a leader in war is an inherently unethical position where every decision you make will lead to death/conflict/hate."

Like idk I just think it would've been more interesting if the narrative spent less time going "zomg Optimus is totally a tyrant now" and instead went all in on exploring the political conflicts and how far politicians (Optimus now being one, since he's declaring wars and forcefully acting as an ambassador that no one asked for) can go on manipulation and forcing people's hands for the sake of an ultimately good cause. I mean, Windblade was doing shit like covering up for Chromia who killed people in a bombing, making backdoor deals with Starscream, and conspiring with Optimus to bypass Starscream/overthrow him as Cybertron's ruler somehow. The difference of course is that Windblade and exRID were written by two different authors with genre/thematic differences, but as a reader it is really disappointing to see two different political narratives where "a hero turned politician turning to morally gray/unethical methods to outmaneuver a deadly opponent" is treated as clever and heroic for one character, but tyrannical and worthy of ostracization of another character.

Like for God's sake this narrative where Optimus gets lambasted at every turn sometimes by people who work with/are literal tyrants/terrorists themselves is so fucking exhausting. I'd rather read a story that focused more on the idea of, well what Optimus did was unethical but on a political level it was actually advantageous in several ways. Then you could write a story that really dives into a view of like, idk... Does power inherently corrupt or is it just situations like war that allow leaders to seize power and become tyrannical? Are politics an inherently dirty field where the only way to beat your competition (and secure a decent future for the nation) is to become underhanded and manipulative yourself? Is it okay to bypass or work against rightfully elected officials when those officials are turning a blind eye to things like war and invasions and historic racism?

ExRID did somewhat touch on these themes to be fair, but I feel like in Optimus' case they were either poorly executed or just thrown away in favor of having every other character talk shit about him and how he's the worst person ever. Bc like goddammit, I do think Optimus' polarizing and sometimes bad decisions as a character DO make him skirt on the edge of tyranny and shouldn't be downplayed, but on the other hand, I feel like no one (fandom or in-universe) ever tangles with the OTHER side of the story, which is just... Would it have been unethical for Optimus to NOT have done anything? Cybertronians literally put a colony on Earth, injected Earth with alien technology and sleeper agents, used Earth as an incubating ground for dangerous elements like Ore-13, invaded Earth and killed 1 billion people-- after all the shit Cybertron did to Earth, is it not fair (even morally obligated) for Cybertronians to clean up their shit and help Earth defend itself against a crisis that Cybertronians caused? And if Cybertron's government/the individuals within are racist enough that they don't care about Earth, don't see it as their problem, and don't even see human life as meaningful since they don't live that wrong anyways... is it not, in a way, a good thing for Optimus to have overstepped his authority and forced diplomatic relationships between the two planets? So that humans had an actual political channel to go "fuck you, we're in your Council so you'd better ally with us" and so that Cybertron would be forced to go "welp can't write off these humans as Not Our Problem, guess we have to help them." Doesn't forcing Earth to be part of the Council in a way legitimize Optimus' fight to help Earth, since without a formal political office he's just a rogue general fighting an unauthorized war, but with the government involved, defending Earth now becomes a politically sanctioned act?

Like idk. I guess exRID and OP did get into some of this stuff, but as a whole it felt like the story underutilized its political elements and got bogged down in shit like pointless crossovers, and constantly pausing the narrative to have Side Character #2847 talk about how Optimus is a fascist, and having Optimus go on white guilt-esque monologues about how maybe all Cybertronians should die and are unworthy/unable to ever have a peaceful society because their society colonized other planets.

Just so much wasted potential honestly. ExRID/OP as written felt like it was going way too hard into "omg Cybertronians bad and Optimus is actually a tyrant" instead of just writing a complex story and letting readers come to their own conclusions. And also lambasting Optimus for doing things that other characters did (or characters who did even worse things), but letting those characters exist in peace while Optimus has to just be some allegory for colonialism that has to be torn down at every turn because that's Deep and Intellectual.

I just like the kinds of stories about politics that play around with the ethics of it all, like, "this politician is a shitty person but their policies actually prevented some sort of disaster from happening" or "this person did something illegal and defied the law but they did it because no one else was doing anything" or even "everyone hates this person for forcing them into a political deal they didn't want to be involved in, but the fact that they were all forced to become allies actually allowed them to cooperate and save themselves in a way they wouldn't have been able to alone" (which is pretty much literally how the annexing of Earth ended up going).

Like man I don't want to sit here being lectured/having my favorite character be lectured about how much tyranny is bad. I want my favorite character to do shitty things and then go "whoa that was shitty...but also kind of smart...but also caused a lot of problems...but also solved some other problems that could've turned awful if he hadn't forcefully resolved them."

#squiggposting #idw op love #it's less like i want OP to be framed as sympathetic or good and more like.... #'yeah what he did was fucked up but it was also in many ways a good option' #like i wish we'd gotten a more politically interesting story where the goods and bads were explored #instead of it being almost unilaterally the characters all gasping and screaming any time OP #does something morally gray. even tho the entire universe is morally gray and he' #isnt even close to the worst person or political leader in it #like idk what it really comes down to is that a lot of the story felt more like #it was trying to make OP some embodiment of colonialism and how everything bad is on his shoulders #regardless of his personal actions just bc he' #s prime. it feels like it was some weird white guilt allegory pasted onto robots #instead of just writing a cool story about politics and moral grayness and how far one can go #before morally gray means turn into morally gray ends #i feel like under a different writer the story couldve been way more interesting #and it couldve even kept OP's whole tyranny arc thing but just been more well written #treating him as a character who MAY HAVE HAD POINTS ABOUT SOME THINGS #AND MIGHTVE BEEN THE ONLY PERSON WHO GAVE A DAMN ABOUT HUMANITY #AND CLEANING UP THE MISTAKES CYBERTRON CREATED THAT HARMED HUMANS TO THIS DAY #but nah instead of just letting OP's moral grayness stand on its own for reader to judge #he had to literally write in characters going 'zomg the Bots were the colonizers all along' #'[OP's leadership] is LITERALLY FASCISM' (actual dialogue btw) #ppl going surprisepika when OP decides to just kill the genocidal asshole from the golden age #like goddamn could you let OP breathe and be allowed to be morally gray #w/o having the whole story exist to make him some white guilt colonialism allegory that all the other characters scream at

[lets-try-some-writing]

[anon-e-miss]

It is a bit odd that almost all of the most lovable IDW characters are the ones that aren't as smart, and that they're specifically portrayed as the better option in most of the comics.

I think about the Swerve vs. Perceptor thing alot. Both of them are considered annoying for talking too much, but when you get to the MTMTE comics and Swerve's character arc you get to see that he's fun and lovable and a little bit of a mess- he's someone to relate to and see as a classic "Good" character with tangible growth and an entire storyline where he gets friends and people who care about him even though he's "annoying".

On the other hand, Perceptor is consistently punished for being excited by scientific pursuits. He's told to dumb it down for the masses, to stop talking so much about the things he enjoys, to keep it simple and short all the time while he's part of the Wreckers during the war. When we get to MTMTE, he's more withdrawn and silent, and he doesn't get much of a character arc that is easily seen. He regains his excitement a small bit while interacting with Brainstorm- who is yet another unethical scientist in the IDW line of villainous scientists- and slowly comes around to being a bit more outspoken like he used to be... in the background. He's forgotten for the most part, and only brought up when something scientific happens that needs to be explained by someone other than Brainstorm, but he isn't really loveable to the readers and his returning verbosity isn't given any sort of recognition as healing or growth on his part. Most of his interactions are just playing off of Brainstorm's, and he's barely got anything to himself during the entire MTMTE and Lost Light series.

Between the two chatterboxes, while both are good guys, one is actively portrayed as a good character- and it isn't the smart one.

(To be clear, I love Swerve and Perceptor both, I like the subtlety of Perceptor's growth in MTMTE even if I wish he got more time to show it and a bit more recognition in the comics for it, I just wish he wasn't seen as annoying during his time with the Wreckers because of him getting excited over science stuff. It's sad to shut down something that makes someone so happy, and it happened consistently throughout the times we got Perceptor content in IDW- let the guy ramble about electrons or something, just once is all I'm asking! Let him be a cute nerd damnit!)

Overall, there was a very heavy pro idiot bend to the IDW comic's writing and it honestly makes it unreadable for me.

I didn't like Rodimus from 86 because he didn't feel like a good replacement for Dadimus but I didn't actually hate hate him until IDW. I'm sorry, they'd all have been fucking dead in two mega-cycles at best with that characterization of Rodimus in charge. Basically every death is because of him and others being dumbass but it's the smart ones that get blamed.

Hated during Optimus into an abusive asshole.

Hated the victim blaming. Hated the toxic, co-dependent shit that was romanticized. Hated the celebration of abusive personalities.

The writing in general is just... bad. In my opinion and I'm not saying mine is brilliant or anything but for fucks sake. IDW is a trainwreck.

Anyone wonder why I get my villainous Autobots from IDW? Here's a hint, because it's a smorgasbord of horrible personalities and behaviours some fans go fucking wild for.

Oh my..I didn’t even realize it has been a month since I have spoken! I did not think it had been that long, maybe 15 days or so, but not a month! I apologize so much, I had thought it had been much shorter of a time and I had planned to speak in maybe a week from then, but life got in the way.

But anyways, I have just been mingling around, relaxing or working. I will reveal that I am not an adult yet, but work still takes up a lot of my time. Along with trying, for my first time, AU August Writing Challenge so that’s taken up my time as well. I hope you don’t mind.

At the moment I just finished work and are going to see my auntie at a camping site. I will admit that I am very eh about that as I have just finished work and want to relax and sleep, but my mom had convinced me haha. I don’t think going to a camping site will be good as I am in shorts (short shorts to be exact) and this time of year there is a lot of miskitos out so I am sure I am going to get bit, unfortunately.

Other than that, my summer has been pretty relaxed and quiet, not really doing anything but having no motivation to get up and move. These days I mostly read, write, listen to music and work. I am also going on a vacation tomorrow, so that is exciting!

The Zine that you and I are in has been going good as well, my art piece is finished but I’m deciding not to hand it in until later incase I want to change something or want to touch up on it a bit. I noticed you handed yours in though, and I love it a lot! The butterfly glowing on Optimus’s finger is such a nice touch, and the colours!! The colours are so well picked out and go well together, and I love the shading, and the background as well, it’s really unique! ^^

Other than me, I love your recent art pieces! The Lambo-verse art was funny, I giggled when I saw it. Sunstreaker looks very confused while Sideswipe looks intrigued! Of course, I love your little persona (?) wearing a detective hat haha! It was a nice touch. As well as the show down art! Oh my did I love reading that, Sunstreaker, against Mirage? That’ll be fun to read/watch about. I love your Mirage design as well, I don’t think I’ve said that. I love his looks and how elegant he looks in your style, especially when he looks at Sunstreaker and says ‘and notoriously cocky.’ It just makes my heart jump because as much as I love Sunstreaker, your Mirage has a special place in there as well.

The rest of your art I unfortunately don’t know much about in terms of their fandoms and all that, but I really love the Multiverse Vistas content piece! The gold with darker colours just makes it..pop out more and become the centre of the piece while not being overwhelming, and the glowing of the eyes drags you to them as if in a trance, even if they are not real. You make them seem so real it’s unbelievable! Actually, as it’s you, it is believable, all your art pieces are wonderful and seem real in their own little ways.

The Sunstreaker with the gum was also a great piece that I enjoyed. Sunstreaker really is a beauty and beautiful, even when he is grumpy haha, I still love him a lot.

I would say more but it is currently 2:44AM and I’m going on a vacation tomorrow! I won’t have much data unfortunately, but I am only gone for a week so that is fine. Sorry for not messaging for a bit, I did not intend for it to take that long and I hope my next message will be in a shorter time, but we shall see. It was great messaging you, Shi-Shi, I can’t wait to speak to you again. Have a great day/night!

Hello there Meister~ (I'm reasonably certain it's you anyway) It has been a while hasn't it? No worries on the time though, real life is a thing, so I'm happy to hear from you whenever you have the time.

Minus your work, it sounds like you're having a fun, relaxing summer~ I've never heard of Au August, but the concept would be a fun challenge to work on. I'm pretty sure that this is too late, but I advise going with fresh basil to a campsite. Rubbing fresh basil on your skin is a natural and nice-smelling way to keep mosquitos off you. I have baby skin that panics at anything I try to put on it, so I like using the basil leaves instead of a chemical repellant. Downside is you'll smell faintly of Italian food.

So far as the Zine goes, I won't lie I kind of wanted to keep mine back too for the same reasons. BUT. I was afraid I'd forget to post it since life has been kind of demanding and tiring. It shames me to admit I was late on another zine's final submission.

I'm very happy to hear that you liked my Optimus though, I really hope that Mr. Cullen likes it too when he gets the zine....

Mirage vs Sunny makes me so excited! I had the idea randomly one day and went !gasp! How had I not thought of it before?

I designed Mirage to be "old/moonlight glamour" vs Sunstreaker's "new/sunshine glamour" so I'm happy that that came across to you. Mirage is a special bean to me as well. I enjoy Sunstreaker, but I think it's good to take him down a notch or two once in a while and Mirage is perfect for that job. (It's alright though, I make sure he gets pictures like the bubblegum one to keep him satisfied)

I had a lot of fun working on the Multiverse Vistas piece. It took longer than usual to do, with all the layers I used on the character, but it was an interesting challenge. I didn't win anything for it (unless I placed in the popularity category which is doubtful at this point) but I'm flattered that you found Nanook to be compelling.

I always look forward to asks from my lovely anons, but take your time and don't worry about me. Like I've said before, I'll be here when you have time/want to talk. I hope you have a good vacation and a good day/night.

[overlordraax]

Hey, I was thinking about the Galvadad AU again, and now I’m really curious, because we all know those little sparklings/heirs of the twins are gonna grow up into adults one day.

So will Roddy follow a similar path as canon, and maybe end up taking up some adventuring? Get all that energy out, and learn how to properly take care of himself when he can’t lean back on Galvadad and Cyclon-mom. Maybe even get himself a ‘rival’ of some sort? That he definitely won’t fall in love with by accident- ex. Thunderclash.

Like he goes around, adventures, gets captured/fights his rival now and then, takes care of himself on his tiny dingy (yet very beloved) little ship from daddy dearest, etc.

And if he did, gee golly how would Galv and Cyc react? Because I can imagine Galv is either;

Proud his son has a ‘rival’

“Who dares think they are worthy enough to have a chance at rivaling with my sparkling’s hand?”

“Yasss tell me all about himmmm” (gossiping like those high school girls in movies)

And Cyc is just *Hades voice* “he’s a GUY.” every time Rod tries to explain about this whole ‘rivalry’ thing.

And also, if Rod were to ever accidentally end up sparked or bring said ‘rival’ home, or something, I’m curious how Cyc and Galv would react. Alternatively, if they found Rod cut off from said rival because someone else in the faction thought they were doing him a favor to try taking them out of the picture, but he ends up feeling superbly guilty and doesn’t want it to happen again. He’s not that evil.

Also been thinking Angels & Demons AU - Galv finds this tiny young angel and is like ‘is for me? 🥺👉👈’ Cyc is unphased. This is normal. Megs just puts his face in his hands, knowing all too well - this is his stupid ass himbo twin. Of course he’s gonna try to adopt the cute thing.

It’s a fun AU to think about, honestly, especially with how many possibilities there are, and the story/world you’ve made. And btw, would you mind if I made works for the AU since it inspires me to write sometimes?? Sorry if I bother at all, and hope you have a good day/night! :).

Hey! Thanks for the ask again! Lovely to see you get so excited by this au. Okay so...

At some point Roddy is definitely going to become a leader in part of Galv's forces. Probably a general or commander under him and Cyclonus. Though, of course, I can see him doing a lot of adventuring. This is something Galvatron has done with him since he was a kid; nature walks and exploring. He wants his son to have a sense of adventure! And learning some survival skills is always useful.

As for the rival thing... So a thing that was originally planned for this au was my short fic When Will I Get A Nemesis, where Galvatron sees having a rival as being a sort of romantic deal (he is convinced Megatron is flirting with Optimus). Honestly the only reason that story is not officially canon to the Galvadad au is cos once I wrote it I thought it would be better as something that would more likely to lead to Galvarod, and that certainly wasn't going to happen here. That story would work better with an adult Autobot Roddy.

But still, I like the idea that Galvatron sees having a rival/nemesis where you spend your every day thinking about your next encounter with them will be, as something classically romantic. So if Roddy did ever get one he'd be like "Oh my gosh I'm so proud! My little boy is growing up!" Suddenly he wants to meet Roddy's nemesis, invite them for a pot roast, maybe kidnap them to go "You better treat my boy with the respect he deserves". He'd be embarrassingly encouraging.

And honestly if I did introduce someone to play that role it probably would be Thunderclash. I can't think of who'd be better for that.

Also Galvs and Cyc would definitely have taught Roddy about safe sex so there's no way he'd get sparked by accident. If he ever does get a kid it'd be entirely deliberate (though honestly I think the Roddy of this au would be more likely to try and adopt another lost foundling like himself).

-

(I might answer the angel thing in a different ask just so this doesn't get too long)

-

But honestly if you want to have a go writing something based on this au, please do! I'd honestly love that so much. It's amazing to think my work has inspired some stuff. All I ever ask is that a credit is made to me and/or the original story. But please! I would love to see that!

First Contact

Alright, my first Tumblr writing! This is a Transformers AU fic incorporating elements from the lovely @skoff-the-artist who has given me permission to use ideas for the Cybertronians from her AU. I love what she's done and her art is so good, go give it a look! I'm also tossing in some ideas of my own, hope you like them! Characters: Orion Payne/Optimus Prime: The kind, heroic, and brilliant leader of the Autobots. Attempts to maintain a human civilian life to understand humans better. Bonded to a semi truck.

Celeste Asteria/Starlight: OC of mine. Human, but somehow gained the ability to project and manipulate energy. Projects a low-level energy field that can be detected by Cybertronians. Compassionate and sweet, but also determined.

Here we go!

Orion sighed, going over the data he'd received from Bumblebee's last scouting report. A strange energy field had been detected, coming from a human woman. She'd been oblivious to Bumblebee following her, thank the stars; he wasn't sure how she would have reacted to being followed by a cyborg who spoke in beeps. The energy of the woman had been similar to that found in some stars... it was strange to him.

Celeste opened the door to Sweetcourse Café, taking in the scent of baked goods. She loved this little place: it was off the main road of Icosa City, hidden away. She smiled at the clerk, Tyler, who nodded at her in greeting, his green eyes shining with familiarity.

"Hey, Cel," Tyler said as Celeste came up to the counter, brushing a strand of her long golden hair out of her face. "The usual? Hot chocolate with whipped cream and chocolate syrup?"

"You know me so well," Celeste replied with a smile, her azure eyes shining as well. She looked through the pastel-colored café, spotting a few people sitting at the booths, more at the tables, and one man with blue hair in a red shirt and black leggings sitting alone at a table in the back, poring over something on a laptop. "Who's that?" Celeste asked, gesturing to the man.

Tyler glanced in Orion's direction. "Dunno. He didn't order anything, but he's not bothering anyone, so I let him be. Not my place to judge anyway."

"He seems stressed about something."

"Yeah. What, you wanna say hi?" Tyler asked with a playful smirk. Celeste rolled her eyes, then flipped her hair.

"I mean... I guess he won't mind." Celeste eyed Orion. "Call me when my order's ready?"

"You betcha."

Celeste made her way over, tapping her knuckles on the light blue table Orion had been sitting at. He looked up, spotting the human woman in a blue shirt and black leggings, a blue messenger bag slung over her shoulder.

"Hey," she said, her tone warm and welcoming. "I noticed you seemed stressed about something; want to talk about it?"

"What?" Orion glanced from his laptop to Celeste. "Oh. Yeah. I suppose so."

"Mind if I sit, then?" Celeste inquired. Orion gave her a quick nod, and so Celeste slid into the chair across from him. "So, is it work that's got your pretty face all scrunched up?"

"I'm sorry?" Orion raised an eyebrow, to which Celeste smiled and laughed, then set a fair-skinned hand on the table.

"You have a pretty face." Celeste gestured with her other hand. "Interesting eyes, too. What's with the black sclera?"

Oh, scrap.

"I, uh- it's-" Orion stammered, trying desperately to think of an explanation. Humans weren't entirely aware of the Cybertronians yet, and he wanted to keep it that way. "Eye contacts?"

"That sounded more like a question than an actual answer." Celeste leaned back in the chair, setting her hands behind her head. "What?" she asked when she noticed Orion's quizzical expression. "Something on my face?"

"No, it's-" Orion stopped himself, trying once again to look for a sensible answer. This human was emitting the exact same energy readings that Bumblebee had sent in. She had to be the same woman. "Nothing."

"Alright." Celeste smiled again. "I'm Celeste, by the way. Celeste Asteria." She moved her hands from behind her head and leaned forward, extending her left hand to shake. Orion took it. They both noticed the other had a strong grip.

"Orion Payne."

"A pleasure, Orion."

"Do you always introduce yourself to strangers by sidling up and flirting?" Orion inquired, to which Celeste laughed again.

"Not usually. You're a special case," she teased, a playful smirk gracing her lips.

"Cel! Your hot choco's ready!" Tyler called across the café.

"Be right there, Ty!" Celeste called back, getting up from her seat. "Until next time, Orion." She sashayed over to the counter, leaving a very intrigued Cybertronian behind.

[weenwrites]

Hi! I just came across your fics and I'm interested in requesting one :)

Can I request a knight cybertronian!reader x TFP smokescreen who went to the same training with the elite guard (platonic)? the reader is a bit sassy but also cheerful, like imagine after the cybertron war they finally met eachother again on earth and Smokescreen were surprised that the reader were alive this whole time.

sorry if this is a bit confusing, it's my first time requesting something :))

✎A/N: I didn't think it was confusing in the slightest, it seemed pretty clear to me! 

[ Please do not repost, plagiarize, or use my writing for AI! Translating my work with proper credit is acceptable, but please ask first! ]

At this point in the war, the Elite Guard's once rigorous and nigh-torturous curriculum had been picked apart and stuck back together to teach recruits the bare basics of how to run around and fire a gun. That is to say that all the soldiers produced from said training were barely near the skill and prowess of a true Elite Guard due to the rushed training, and the decorum of a proper Elite Guard Ceremony had been thrown to the wind. While that is far from ideal, the autobots had grown desperate as more and more experienced soldiers joined the scrap heap.

All of the recruits in the platoon had some vague impression of the others, but most of—if not all of them—had been lured in by autobot propoganda to see the war and fighting for it as something glorious, with Optimus Prime as the face of the cause. Or perhaps they were required by law to draft. But that aside, Smokescreen wasn't the only bot there who had dreams of becoming a legend through throwing punches, shooting guns, and showing the cons who's boss.

It was practically impossible for you two not to know one another as you had to train together, spar together, and share barracks until the end of your training, so you were definitely friends. After training, while Smokescreen was assigned to security duty at the Iacon Hall of Records, you were "lucky enough" to be deployed on field.

He was beyond jealous, and if the two of you had kept any correspondence after your academy days, you could tell that he was pretty upset about it through the way he wrote "Congrats! Good on you for getting deployed!" Even though he wasn't saying that directly to your face, you could practically hear the way his teeth would grind against one another as he'd try to give a "sincere" smile (and you'd be a little worried his face would crumple up into a metal ball because of how hard he'd be clenching his jaw).

But anyway, for some time, the two of you may or may not have kept correspondence, but regardless it would start to dwindle as the planet became more and more uninhabitable by the day. At some point, neither of you had heard anything of or from each other, and never again would you hear from one another as Smokescreen would be captured by Decepticons and escape in a long-distance escape pod, and as you would continue the war effort and join team prime on Earth.

Your first-hand experience of the war jaded you, yet no matter what horrors you witnessed, you could still find it in yourself to smile and joke around, though you were now more experienced, and knew that the war wasn't as the propaganda made it out to be. Of course during your time on earth, Smokescreen hits the ground and the team investigates with you among them.

And once he revealed himself amidst the battle, you were able to recognize his brash, reckless style, and he'd recognize your sassy quips and voice anywhere. Given your previous history, you were able to corroborate his claims about his elite guard training, and where he was deployed afterward, but even then Optimus hadn't truly trusted him until he mentioned Halogen and Alpha Trion.

When he gets back to base and starts raving on about getting in on the action and beating up cons, a part of you feels some nostalgia for your academy days as you trained together, while the other feels some sort of disgust at how the war was "advertised" to the recruits. Speaking of the base, you get to take the honor of showing him around, and while you do, the two of you catch up.

Smokescreen's still as enthusiastic and eager as you remember, he truly hasn't changed a bit. But he notices the way you seem a little more... Reserved. You're still the you he remembers of course—one of the first things he's heard from you was your teasing about how he's a "quick thinker"—but even then, you're quieter and more exhausted than you used to be. For a moment he's a little worried the two of you wouldn't be able to connect with how much has changed, but soon these worries subside as the two of you start to chat again.

In no time, you're able to sympathize with the team's annoyance with Smokescreen's recklessness, but you can also understand where he's coming from and why he thinks this way. Rather than reprimanding him—well, you still do that too—you try to offer helpful advice and nudge him in a direction that'll better benefit the team, and he listens. Seeing as the two of you are friends, he tries to take your advice to heart, and you're one of the only people he'd really listen to (aside from Optimus) without needing to have someone yell it at him.

Some about me stuff ig since my bio is kinda messy.

-Emily

-she/her

-Protestant Christian

-22

-fan artist

-fanfic writer

-sometimes I make memes and story/character analyses

-mostly active on Instagram and Tumblr

-I hate incest and pedophilia; proshippers pls leave me alone

-ANTI V/IVZIEPOP IM SO SERIOUS I DO NOT SUPPORT HER AT ALL

-I hate rey//lo and kylo ren with a burning passion.

-Tokyo Mew Mew, Transformers, TMNT, and My Little Pony are my main fandoms. I’m currently obsessed with TMNT.

-I sometimes make suggestive jokes but I would rather not discuss n/sfw subjects in depth pls.

-My rambles are tagged with ‘pumpkin stuff’ and my art is simply tagged ‘my art’

Some extra fandom stuff so y'all can decide whether you wanna follow me or not:

Tokyo Mew Mew

-Pie and Retasu are my OTP.

-I think Pie and Tart are underrated and misunderstood as characters. Pie's not emotionless and Tart's not just a bratty kid.

-Masaya is my boy, and I will fight his haters.

-Kishigo is a horrible ship. I like Quiche, but he's horrible to Ichigo during the series. At best, I could see them as friends, but nothing more.

Transformers

-TFA is my favorite continuity. Optimus, Blackarachnia, and Sentinel are my favorite characters.

-Sentinel may be a jerk, but he's not irredeemable. Season 3 was literally setting up him and Optimus becoming friends again.

-Optimus and Blackarachnia were my first OTP, and I still love them. The drama is so enticing.

TMNT

-LOTUS BLOSSOM IS MY GIRLLLL

-Every continuity is good. Y'all are just mean.

-1987 is my favorite continuity.

-I think the writing in 2012 kinda sucks, but it was my first and is still one of my favorites.

-2003 has rlly good writing and I can’t recommend it enough.

-Rise is good too, I just don’t have a personal bias for it, sorry.

-I’M SO EXCITED FOR THE MUTANT MAYHEM SHOW!!

-I like the bay movies, 2007, the first 90s movie, and the Batman vs TMNT movie.

-I'm more of a casual fan of the IDW comics, but I still like them. I really wanna read the Mirage, Image, and Archie comics, but I haven't started yet.

-My main ships are leolotus, 2012 apritello, 2003 jhannatello, 1987 and 2012 ramona, and 1987 kalangelo.

-I don't like leo//rai.

-Lotus Blossom and Karai are not the same person. Periodt.

-I can address their flaws, but I am a 2012 April and apritello apologist.

-The day Lotus Blossom appears in a new continuity is the day I know pure joy. And she better be paired with Leo pls pls pls.

-Did I mention I’m a Lotus Blossom stan and have original versions of her for nearly every continuity lol

[ohcrapmyfishwhy]

so i have only seen that one transformers movie with shia labeouf. where do i start for the Good stuff. i am fascinated by starscream.

cracking *every* single bone in my body anon this is gonna be long I'm so sorry

Ok so there's a FANTASTIC post here about where to start if you're not sure where to. In my humble opinion, this post on Reddit is also super helpful- because, unfortunately, transformers comes with 800 continuities like Marvel- and ofc that's gonna happen to a 30-year-old franchise, so it's confusing. but in THAT CASE, if you're confused, youtuber Chris McFeely has an entire series called Transformers: The Basics which has short, easily digestible videos on certain continuities, characters, and plot devices while remaining fairly spoiler free- obviously, there are gonna be spoilers, but for the most part they're pretty spoiler free and help establish certain lore things if you're confused! Though hopefully you won't need it too much based on what I'm giving you here, cause I know getting into a series and instantly having to do homework just sucks

Whats fun about the TF cartoons is that for the most part, each one is in their own continuity, so any prior knowledge isn't really required because they do end up telling you how the rules of the world works. For fun awesome Starscream content in particular for COMICS, he plays a HUGE role in the IDW comics- IDW 1 in particular has some choice screamer moments, those comics start with More Than Meets The Eye #1 and Lost Light #1.

If you don't want to give all your time and energy to a comic, there's also cartoons! Transformers Animated is a 2007 cartoon made by the ben 10 and teen titans crew, it moves like ass but its writing is undeniably solid. Starscream is voiced by tom kenny and he's an absolute DELIGHT i love him. Transformers Prime is the grim, edgy reboot made in 2010- and I haven't seen this one yet so I can't fully recommend it, but this is the one that the fandom has latched onto the most from what I've seen. Transformers (1984) is fantastic if you're looking to giggle and are into the weird memes, like 80% of the starscream being a weirdo compilation videos are from this.

Luckily most- if not all- the cartoons have their own comic tie ins if you're still starved for content for that particular run!

If you Can stomach early 90's television CGI, cause I know that's a giant turn off for some, I recommend Beast Wars with my whole damn chest- it's my favorite, the writing is just hands down fantastic, its smaller cast means you get some serious development, and its a great place to start and understand the context behind the new Rise of the Beasts movie!

A really GREAT CGI series that just came out that also lacks the starscream content is Transformers Earthspark!! Its definitely got a kids show vibe to it (mostly in how lessons are handled and conveyed to the audience) but its got a lot of fun, more family-oriented moments for older audiences to enjoy, and really interesting lore implications for older tf fans as well (Like genuinely how they're handling Megatron and Optimus is so fascinating to me I could go on a tangent about how good they are as foils here) the fight scenes are incredible, the representation is so good, and I think Robby and Mo are the least annoying TF kid characters, I would die for them. Downside, it's only streaming on paramount plus rn.

also literally all these series are available to stream for free on tubi (except earthspark)

HOPEFULLY this was helpful, I'm very new to the fandom myself so I'm still learning a lot, but I hope you like the silly robot show- I haven't had this much fun with a piece of media for awhile :)
