#Trailcutter is drunk

HII! I just wanted to say I love your writing so much, it always leaves me with good feelings for the rest of the day lol!
I saw that you’re taking requests and was wondering if you’d be willing to write something for Trailcutter? I don’t see much with him and I’d love to see your take on writing him 💕 sfw or nsfw doesn’t matter.
hi dear, thank you so much for the lovely compliment. what a lovely thing to say <3 and thank you for giving me the opportunity to write about trailcutter, he is indeed underrated, let's change that as i'm starting to grow fond of him !
sober. trailcutter / gn!reader. (nsfw !). (mdni !). drabble.
When Bluestreak asked him how sobriety was going, Trailcutter didn't hesitate — it's good. The blue mech didn't seem convinced, but Trailcutter didn't know what else to say. It is going well. Too well, maybe. Because he's leaning against one of the chairs in Swerve's, and halfway into happy hour, Trailcutter still hasn't ordered anything.
He didn't even want it, despite the sea of mechs drinking and laughing around him. It was the evening after a successful recon mission down in one of the organic planets. The whole crew's here, even Megatron. And despite the co-captain's efforts in smacking the alcoholic out of him, the newfound inability to get drunk didn't come with the sudden want to stop drinking. And the first few months were horrible, but Primus, if they weren't worth it. 
You were across the room, making conversation with Nautica and Velocity. All smiles as you nursed your glass of wine. He thinks you look beautiful: cheeks partially flushed as you look up from your lashes. It's funny to notice all the pretty little details he's been missing out on when he's flat-faced drunk and drooling all over the tables. You were kind, patient — persistent, even, considering that you were the first individual to actually sit him down for an intervention. And after a while, he doesn't need to cope anymore. He just wants to remember. To take in the way the lights hit your skin and bounce off the walls, how the music's making him tap his servos to the beat. 
So he tells Bluestreak it's the little things. When he called Trailcutter out for lying, the newly appointed director of security gave his friend a shrug, thinking back on the kisses you'd give him after every session in Rung's office. Of how wet and warm your mouth was pressed against his, loving, praising. And not even Nightmare Fuel can replicate the high you give him — soft hands and plush thighs, sprawled atop him as he lifts you by the waist to pull you down his spike. You'd buck into him, sinking inch by inch, whispering into his audials. 
You've been so good lately. You'd whine, fingers trying to push past his valve. So strong, so brave...so handsome. 
And with that — he'd come apart.
Rung had told him to find healthier alternatives to managing his self-confidence and doubts. Let's just say with you riding him for cycles on end, he doesn't worry about being a one-trick pony anymore. 
So yeah, Trailcutter's telling the next mech the same, honest answer: sobriety is going well. You gave him a wink from the end of the room, already walking to him, hips swaying with invitation. Yeah, it's definitely good.

"Hello, Starshine! Hosin approached at the bar, struggling to reach up into a seat from below. He extended up on his tail and finally made it with a huff and a grin. He slung his chin into his hand and turned to face you. "What is your name, darling? I have seen you around in passing, but we have not yet been acquainted!" He extended a sweet hand. "I am Emperor-" Hosin paused, glancing to the side. "Ah, I mean Hosin! My name is Hosin. It is a right fine pleasure to meet you!"
Was he…Drunk?
I mean of course he was drunk, it was Happy Hour at Swerves, and he was already on his fifth shot of Engel when the strange little creature had appeared. Ohhhh this had to be somesort of strange hallucination, wasn’t it? The mech’s visor seemed to scrunch down in thought, trying to kneels himself down a little more to see Hosin better.
Tumblr media
“You’re real small, Sorry, didn’t see ya there.”
Trailcutter slurred, leaning to rest his chin on the bar’s counter, dimmed visor looking the rubbery creature over.
“I’m….Trailcutter, yeah, that’s my name. Are you real? You look shiny, don’ look like nothin’ I’ve ever seen b’fore…”
Was it safe to talk to your drunken hallucinations? Whatever, he’d done far worse, talking to himself at a bar seemed to be way less weird than some of the other things he’d done while overcharged.

hello!! may i request trailcutter trying to court a snooty bot reader and they just give him a run for his money? thank you in advance <33
*TaDa*
SFW, Gender neutral s/o
Trailcutter had been trying for two months. And for what? Just to ask the Lost Light’s newest member out on a date. Any sensible mech would have given up long ago, but he was so damn smitten and every time he was ran circles around, it only made him want them more. And not in a materialistic, quick frag sort of way. No, he wanted to know everything about them, every single thing that they guarded so diligently. He wanted to continue the banter they often used to rebuke him, but affectionately instead. They had yet to court anyone else onboard, and anyone who tried was brusquely dismissed. Trailcutter was the only one who got the lengthy runaround. 
Even now, as he sauntered up to them at one of Rodimus’ “We Accomplished Something” parties. They were leaning against the bar, sipping a cocktail. Trying to be nonchalant, Trailcutter slipped onto the stool next to them and ordered a drink without acknowledging them. Only once he had drunk half of his mixer did he swivel, honestly surprised that they stuck around so long. It was almost like they were waiting for him to make his move. 
“How’s it going?” he started. 
They remained stone faced, looking out onto the dancefloor. “Will you ever try straightforwardness?” 
Trailcutter fought to mimic their blank expression. “That’s boring.”
“Oh, yeah, and ‘how’s it going’ is so lively.”
He hid a grin behind his glass. “You didn’t let me get to the interesting part. I was gonna ask if you wanted to see a trick.” His magna-wheels twitched up hopefully.
They glanced at him, noticed his tires, and smiled. It wasn’t the first time they’d found him amusing, but it still made him feel happy, like he’d fulfilled his purpose. 
“I’ve seen your forcefield,” they said.
Trailcutter downed the rest of his drink and shot them an overcompensating grin. “You really think that’s my only trick?” If anything it was more of a burgeoning drain on resources but with them he could pretend that that particular “trick” didn’t bother him. 
“No,” they said, “but I’m almost certain it is your best.”
He shrugged. “Won’t know if you don’t let me show you.”
“Very well.” They paused, sipping delicately at their drink then setting the glass on the bar. “Let’s see your dancing, then.”
Trailcutter feigned calm but his spark raced and his nerves tensed at the thought of being so close to them. They took the lead with ease though and he quickly remembered how awful a dancer he was. He kept tripping over his own pedes, too distracted by their servos on his hips.
Finally, he admitted, “This isn’t one of my tricks.”
They smirked. “I know. I wanted to see you when you weren’t being cocky to disguise your low self esteem.”
Trailcutter winced. “Wow,” he grumbled, “low blow.”
“Oh.” They frowned deeply. “Apologies. Communication isn’t one of my skills.” Their hold on his waist tightened slightly, dragging him closer. “I like dancing with you, is what I meant. In a roundabout way.”
He couldn’t for the life of him understand why as he stepped on their toes again and almost lost his balance.
“But don’t get used to it,” they added hastily. Trailcutter wouldn’t, but he would hope.

(Blubrownrpblog) Gala gasps not knowing trailcutter was in the costume himself. “UNICORN!” She managed to say a loud rather excited.
His painful gasp-moan sounded close to what a very drunk unicorn would neigh like, he would think later, but right now the small human girls vocie was dancing through his audios like something mean and evil and like- he couldnt think of something, thinking was hard.
"àla." he muttered softly, still covered from head to pede in his costume, voice slurred and even deeper than normal. He was the most plushy and soft Trailycorn, and he didnt want to move from the soft spot of floor he had found. "G`a" was his next try. He would get there sometime.

imagine insultin a mech that went too far, like they intruded on your personal space too much and didnt take a tellin, ur in swerves and have had enough u came to have a good time and u just start yellin"go floss ur spike with barbed wire!!" "i hope ur valve gets rust!!!!"
Trailcutter accidentally kicks your stool for the third time without apologizing.
You tap his arm and the second he turns his head you climb up his arm, grab him by the nose, and stare deeply in his optics as you say, “Bump my seat one more fucking time and I’ll sear off your spike with a blowtorch, melt it down, forge it into a blade, and then use it to fuck your throat.”
Calmly, you let go of his nose and take your seat.
No one else bumps your stool that night.

Hey, Whirl! You're here too. ...You remember me, or...
Whirl optic stares blankly at Trailcutter, like he's seen a ghost.
Perhaps, because he is technically seeing one- but those biolights sure as frag look alive! Was he drunk- is he hallucinating him?
The talkative mech that usually never shuts up just stares, and stares for another moment, until his plating flares, and in a split second, there's a heavy bowl flying right at Trailcutter's face.
"I saw you fraggin' die!"

More Than Meets the Eye #29 - The One Where Everyone Gets Super Shiny
Our issue opens up with Swerve laying down the Story So Far in the Exposition Dimension.
Tumblr media
Fantastic, you funky little man.
If Swerve looks like he’s been tossed through the car wash a few dozen times, it’s because this is where our new colorist comes in! Everyone, please say hello to Joana Lafuente- known for her love of gradients and attention to light sources, this actually isn’t the first time we’ve run into her. Lafuente worked on colors for several issues of The Transformers (2009), Last Stand of the Wreckers #3, and a few issues of MTMTE Season 1. However, she was matching the styles of her co-colorists on a majority of these, so we haven’t seen her style properly until now.
Getting into the story proper, Cyclonus is busying himself with staring out the window at a PNG of space, as he is wont to do, when he hears the tell-tale sound of tires squealing down the hall towards his room. Oh, goodness, whoever could that be?
Tumblr media
Nearly forgot about him, didn’t you? Yeah, it’s a little difficult to follow up on things like a character’s recovery from a horrific disease when you’ve got comic event contract obligations to deal with.
After getting tackled by Tailgate, who reminds us all about the time he stuck his dirty little fingers into a dude’s brain meat, Cyclonus takes the little nerd on a walk through the ship.
Tumblr media
You’re not going to convince me to reread “Dark Cybertron”. I don’t care how much of a marshmallow you are, it’s not happening.
They’re passed by Megatron and a bunch of crew members carrying that coffin we saw at the end of last issue down the corridor, Tailgate has a moment, and we get a taste of Cyclonus’ distaste for the Autobots as a whole. Tailgate is mildly offended by this, as he gropes his chest in distain, showing off his shiny new Autobot badge- a gift for not dying a terrible, gruesome death.
Good job, Tailgate. Proud of you.
They’re also passed by an absolutely blitzed Jackpot and Mainframe, the former singing Tailgate’s Tyrest-stopping praises as the latter carts him over to the Medibay to deal with the almost alcohol poisoning he’s got going on. Cyclonus remarks that Tailgate was missed, though Tailgate can’t help but wonder if that’s really true.
Tumblr media
Y’all like slowburn romance, right? Because these two dumbasses have been roommates for two years, and we’ve just gotten to the point where physical contact can happen without one of them needing to be dying.
Anyway, it’s been a good day for Tailgate so far. Let’s hope it stays that way for the little dude.
Tumblr media
...And that’s a series wrap on Tailgate! Let’s give him a hand, folks!
Hopping back in time to Megatron’s trial, things get underway, as Optimus Prime takes a nap in the judge’s bench as Gripper- whose name you don’t need to remember, as he’s not actually important- tells everyone about how brutal the Decepticon Justice Division is, even to Autobots. Which isn’t really supposed to be their deal, given their, y’know, name, but I suppose nobody’s perfect.
Up in the stands, in an… opera box, I guess? Rodimus is watching the proceedings, when Atomizer walks in. Which I guess you can just do in a Cybertronian court case. Sure.
Atomizer, in case you forgot, is the dude who has a bow and arrow, and used to be an interior designer.
Say, didn’t Whirl has a bow and arrow in the last issue when he attacked Megatron? Mighty curious, that.
Rodimus and Atomizer briefly reflect on the DJD, recalling the horror that was Vos- not that Vos, the other one. Rodimus would really just rather this all be over with so the Lost Light can get back to finding the Knights of Cybertron, and it’s at this point that Atomizer breaks out a thing he really ought not have- the count for the vote on whether or not Rodimus should stay on as captain. Rodimus doesn’t want to look at it, because it was supposed to be anonymous for a reason, and tells Atomizer to destroy the list entirely.
Tumblr media
Hm, that’s not a terribly determined face there, Rodimus.
Back in the present, specifically in Swerve’s, Groove is threatening to break Streetwise’s arm, as we get the downlow on just what exactly our Legislator buddy’s deal is. Turn’s out, Swerve got one of the things reprogrammed, so that he follows not the Autobot Code, but something else entirely.
Tumblr media
Hey, Swerve?
I don’t expect you to know this, because I don’t think you were present when they revealed this information to the readers, but… your new bouncer is made of people. He’s a dude made of other dudes, namely the Circle of Light. There’s a chance that you reprogrammed a sentient being, my good bitch.
Anyway, Swerve’s in a fucking mood because his shoulder hurts, someone’s stealing his shit, and Megatron has joined the narrative. Over at a nearby table, Skids, Nautica, and Riptide take a gander at the tabloids. Trailcutter, who is positively smashed, to the point where he’s just leaking booze out of his face like it’s his job, isn’t terribly interested in that, however.
Tumblr media
What an astute observation, Riptide. And people say you’re stupid!
Trailcutter wants to drink some more, because it’s very likely he’s got a problem, but the mention of “Megatron’s super fuel” makes him feel like it’s time to stop hounding Swerve and start performing crimes.
Back during the trial, we get to Starscream’s testimony. He’s wearing his crown. He’s acting like a self-righteous asshole, as he defends Megatron.
Well, “defend” in the technical, legal sense, I suppose.
But really it’s more about him insulting Megatron’s intelligence, strength, and courage, in front of a LOT of people, while also trying to make himself look better in the war crime department. Megatron doesn’t appreciate this very much, if his murder-face is anything to go by.
Tumblr media
Megatron lets Ultra Magnus (his defender, if you’ll recall) know that he wants a private word, and court goes into a brief recess.
Back in the present, Nightbeat’s busy looking at a pin-up of Rung’s alt-mode, when someone knocks on his door. That someone is Chromedome, who’s trying to solve the mystery of The Missing Declaration of Love. Not that he says that specifically out loud.
Tumblr media
You two were married, why- okay. No point in yelling at this digital copy of a comic book.
Anyway.
So, the whole screaming thing only happened the one time, and everything was back to normal on subsequent plays of Rewind’s message. Nightbeat seems to be leaning towards the depressive isolating getting to Chromedome, which Chromedome responds to by telling him to get the fuck out. Alas, someone’s blocking the door!
Tumblr media
YO WHAT THE FUCK-
Back with Trailcutter’s subplot, our drunken friend is in the middle of breaking into the Medibay. Our trio of cool-colored pals watch him from back at the bar, by way of a laptop that looks like it was built the same year I was born.
As Trailcutter attempts to commit a crime, Megatron, Ultra Magnus, and Ratchet pass by, trying to figure out how to handle the whole coffin situation. Trailcutter’s about to punch the locks off a door, and Nautica decides that this is where she’s going to draw the line today, leaving the gaggle of fools to their shenanigans. Then Tailgate glomps Skids, throwing the computer to the ground and breaking it, as Trailcutter finds the door to the Medibay magically open.
If you don’t know what glomping is, there’s a 60% chance that you’re not old enough to vote in the US.
Trailcutter sneaks into the Medibay, we get a reminder that Ambulon is super dead, and Trailcutter commits theft from a food bank. What a guy.
This is the point where security shows up, armed with a great deal of guns, one of which is Megatron himself. Trailcutter, instead of feeling super powerful, actually feels positively awful after consuming Megatron’s rations of “super fuel”. Because he, as an Autobot, doesn’t want to be within 50 yards of Megatron, Trailcutter breaks out the forcefields the moment the guy approaches him. And oh, what a doozy this one is.
Trailcutter’s gotten himself a fancy new trick- this forcefield he’s broken out lasts for a solid half-hour, and he can’t turn it off. I’m sure that won’t bite him in the ass at any point in the near future, no-siree!
Back in the past, Rattrap is commending Starscream on playing the field and getting the public slightly more on his side, but Starscream’s too busy patting himself on the back to really pay attention. He knew damn well that Megatron wouldn’t like what he had to say on the stand, and now things are finally looking up for ol’ Screamer.
Over with Optimus Prime, Slamdance is showing off how the general public is really into this whole “folks being held accountable for their actions” thing.
In the present, Chromedome and Nightbeat seem to have remembered they have alt-modes and are driving down the hall back to Nightbeat’s room- wonder what the speed limit for the Lost Light is?- and discuss just what the hell happened. The current theory is that the Rewind they saw was a Data Ghost- a collection of information so dense, it had a not-quite-physical presence that wasn’t 100% removed when he died.
Which is a little fucked up, but let’s see where this goes.
Nightbeat undoes the 40,000 locks on his door while Chromedome bleeds guilt all over the shag carpet over the fact that he hasn’t been looking for Dominus Ambus like he said he would.
C’mon James, gimme that Chromedominus endgame.
Nightbeat finally opens the door to find a small problem.
Tumblr media
Hm. That’s… not normal.
Over in the Medibay, Trailcutter’s bubble has burst, allowing Megatron to slap him in the back of the head. This head-slapping induces his FIM chip permanently, making it so that he can never get drunk again.
Weird party trick, Megatron. Kinda shitty, really.
Megatron then gives Trailcutter the job of director of security, because he needs direction in his life. Trailcutter just sort of takes what he’s given, because I suppose you can’t really argue with a guy who can literally slap you sober, and also threatens to destroy you if you fuck up even once. Nice, Megs. Nice.
Tumblr media
MEGATRON THAT’S BEEN SITTING LIKE THAT FOR OVER HALF AN HOUR YOU FUCKING WET NOODLE
So, since there’s mystery juice all over the floor and no one’s died, Megatron assumes that the coffin ought to be fine to crack open.
Please note that Megatron is not a medical professional, and his views are now peer reviewed by medical professionals. Megatron is in no way endorsed by the WHO.
Anyway, Rodimus is in there.
Tumblr media
Pretty fucked up.
Back in the past, recess is over, and Ultra Magnus comes bearing bad news- Megatron wants to change his plea to “innocent.” This gets about the reaction one would expect from just about anyone.
Well, except Rodimus, who’s too busy reading that list that he wanted destroyed. He’s very sad about it.
Tumblr media
I know, what a bummer!

mtmte liveblog issue 29
and continuing on!
the cover w/megatron and tailgate....tg so tiny...ooough
omg I forgot abt swerves long ass recap lol
the fact that they lowkey lampshade the fact that as mtmte was really hitting its stride, ending s1 fantastically, they got sucked into the whole dark cybertron thing...Ls
TG AND CYCLONUS HHHHH
tg as a lil car...and cyclonus smiling when he hears him coming...HHHH
also I love that cyclonus kept the great sword that he like, found amongst the belongings of all the dead circle of light members lmao 
or maybe the dude it belonged to didn't die, but he was too intimidated to ask cyclonus for his sword back. understandable 
tgs reaction to megatron...omg. I love him
I love ‘star sabered’ as a way of saying ‘drunk’ lmao
OUGHBHGGBHGJIHHIUHGHH and then when tailgate is like ‘ok, but HAVE I been missed?’ and cyclonus smiles and says ‘very much’ IM GONNA FUCKING DIE. this is only the BEGINNING of the tender gay pain for these two, how am I gonna survive this
the fact that tailgate’s criteria for ‘best day ever’ includes ‘people knowing who I am’ and ���people being nice to me’...my boy 😭😭 
ah, trial time. I'm not really one for court/procedural stuff, and the gay space robots edition of judge judy is about as much as I can handle 
OOOOOF the list. the liiiiiiist
AUGHHHHH rodimus....rodimus....please make good decisions my boy
TEN!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love him
the little swerve icon on the ‘no guns no swords no briefcases’ sign omg
the panel of megatron like, smirking and reclining while ultra magnus yells at him is wild...I always forget that those two like, actively didn't get along at the beginning, mostly bc we only see that for a few issues, but still, it’s pretty ironic considering how things end up w/them later
lost light insider...I SO wish we could've gotten that one-shot issue about the guy who writes it, that's ridiculously up my alley 
skids saying ‘I don't think you’re fit to drive’ to trailcutter is like, bending my brain, bc like...is it a DUI if a transformer drives around in alt mode while drunk...you're not driving a car, you're driving YOURSELF, but still...bruh
oh god starscream is here hvbakjhfbjksdbfj he’s such a bitch I love him
starscream putting on his theater kid crown, ready to make the fuck-up-the-plot-of-a-series-I'm-not-even-in speech of a lifetime
magnus and optimus: ok enough drama you gay idiot get to the point
that panel of starscream raising his hands up like ‘ok ok sheesh lol’ is so fucking funny
ok oh man, that is an epic speech. like, ooof. ‘he deserves pity.’ WOW
I feel like it also does such a good job showing how much bad blood is between starscream and megatron, and goes to show how megatron fucked Absolutely Everything up, including his dynamic w/his subordinates 
anyways, I cant believe starscream roasted megatron so hard that megatron ended up become a main cast member in mtmte bc of spite lmao
meanwhile nightbeat is contemplating the Mystery Stick™
nightbeat yet again pulling his bbc sherlock bs on somebody, this time...chromedome, certified grieving widow. never change nightbeat hvbhjakdsfbsakjdf
AUHGHHHHHH DATA GHOST REWIND IM HHHHHHHHHH
HIM 😭😭😭
I'M SO FUCKING SAD
REWINDDDDDDDDD
meanwhile, trailcutter is wearing a gopro to pull some sick illegal pranks for his youtube channel
there was probably a content creator power vacuum in the lost light youtuber community after rewind died and now everyone is scrambling to be the next big vlogger/editor
megatron: we should play this by the book
magnus: I have no choice but to simp
nautica is that Straightedge Square who gets caught up in sketchy shit and just dips vbhsjdkbfdjaskdf. the cops get called on a party and she's already gone, she drove you there but she left w/the car, whoops. I love her
oh I adore the panel with all the stuff labelled. tho ‘ambulons stuff (untouched)’ is making me really sad
ah, the premiere of the panic bubble, which will indeed be showing up again later
meanwhile starscream is doing lowkey anime poses and waxing poetic about how hard he dunked on megatron in front of everyone. I get the feeling he’s been waiting a long time for that one
oiguhahgudaf I forgot about chromedomes weird looking alt mode. cooked turkey lookinnnnn
don't knock ‘the power of love,’ nightbeat. You'll See™
the fact the cd is still looking for dominus even tho rewind is dead and also they haven't like, had any leads in millions of years...oof it hurts
gotta be honest, my first readthru I didn't understand the (really cool looking) panel of the lost light from the outside w/half of nightbeats hab suite missing, bc I just was like ‘oh its a visual framing technique for Cool Comic Panel’ lmao
ok I need the backstory of megatron being able to karate-chop people into permanent sobriety
megatron hiring trailcutter but in the most threatening way possible
oh, good, the coffin’s bleeding!
OHHH and the reveal that RODIMUS IS IN THE COFFIN and OH HEY we STILL haven't seen rodimus in the flash forwards have we??? hmmm
optimus: ok back to judge prime: luna 2 trials, magnus you got anything to add?
magnus: ಠ_ಠ(•_•)
and then we have megatron being the pettiest mfer in the known universe and changing his plea bc starscream pwned him ONCE 
hhhh and rodimus looking at the list...It Fuckin Hurts. my boy please make a good decision
thinkin abt how if optimus was like, supportive and understanding when rodimus tried to open up to him about his struggles w/leadership, all this might've gone differently...AUGH
anyways, cool issue! we’re doing lots of setup for the new status quo for s2, and there’s a mystery afoot! 
I don’t have much to say here tbh lol, this is a good issue and all but I don’t really have anything to add, soooo til next time!

  — fluff ,, sfw ,, crack
  — yep ! see ya next year ! :D i mean ,, it will be next year when this is posted 💀 but i am writing it on dec.30 rn 🫣 ughh teebs 😞😞 i just got the part where he dies im so heartbroken ,, my mans ,, 😭😭😭 he didnt deserve alla that ,, smh ,, but tysm for requesting 😏 tbh i might not actually be online for this to be posted ,, bc this is in my queue along with many other things to be posted later 🫣 so theres a little update for not having links updated in the second masterlist 🕺
trailcutter ::
• he’d be quite flustered ,, not sure what to say not only because he was most likely super drunk but also surprised you were flirting with him
• any time you compliment him for something ,, his fans will kick on immediately ,, and whenever you’re not around some mechs might coo at him and make smoochy noises ,, mainly whirl
• he may try to return the compliments ,, though he’ll end up tripping over his words and end up more flustered if you say something about it
• primus help this man ,, hes just ,, stuck dealing with these flirty lines and little compliments whenever you decide to just drop them outta nowhere ,, swerve swears that one day he’ll combust if he has to see this sappy romance continue on for any longer !
swerve ::
• he might brush it off as a joke ,, or a dare if anything ,, because why of all people would you flirt with him ? swerve ? the annoyingly loud mech who doesnt shut up ?
• of course you’d have to reassure him that it isnt a dare ,, or just you trying to get something out of him ,, but that you generally like him
• he’ll malfunction right then and there and then ratchet will have to deal with another bot ,, poor ratchet 😞
• he may try to return any compliment with a horrible pick up line ,, but end up think you’re laughing at him and not the worst pick up line ever to be heard in the universe
megatron ::
• megs would be ,, confused but also flustered ,, because have you not seen him ? dont you know of the things he’s done ? hes megatron ! a feared bot throughout many parts of the universe ,, known to kill humans
• and yet here you are ,, sitting beside him as you read his poetry that you somehow persuaded him to show you with your little secret magic hypnosis ,, and now youre calling him cute
• he’d scoff ,, say that he wasnt cute in his mind ,, but not mutter a single word out loud
• he wouldnt know what to do ,, and instead just sit there in silence and listen to your attempts to flirt with the mech
rodimus ::
• he’d return it immediately ,, but with horrible compliments and pick up lines
• one time he said “ nice shoelace “ after you said he looked stunning with the new paint job after his recent mishap on another planet ,, and he keeps thinking back on it to this day ,, wondering why he said shoelace ,, like he even knows what a shoelace is 🙄
• ultra magnus would be so done with you two ,, because roddy would decide to start flirting with you during the meeting and despite you not returning any remarks or even acknowledging you even heard him ,, the mech continues
• even after megs passive aggressively told him to “ stop with the nonsense “ he only continued ,, only 10x worse this time

Hello! This is for the fic request thing! (Thank you for doing these!) 1) Trailcutter 2/3)He's probably sulking as always, possible setting can be that he is followed back to his habsuite and his partner just really wants to put him into a better mood! Probably also something about how he's more than just his special abilities, since that seems to be a sore spot of his. 4) Super cuddly/fluffy stuff for this one, aaaaaa. Probably somewhat goofy too becasue let's face it, he's probably drunk
“You are the most handsome, most amazing mech I know,” You purr, leaning up against Trailbreaker’s side. The sink he’s making in the berth padding makes it easy enough to just slip right in next to him. 
“Oh, stooop,” He says, a servo waving you off, “You’re lyin’.”
“I’m not!” You put on the most convincing smile you can and press your cheek to the side of his chest, nestling yourself under his arm. “You’re super strong, and funny, and sweet,” You punctuate each with a kiss to the side of his chest, then one to his front as you swing a leg over him and move to lay somewhat on top of him. 
“Come on,” He says, voice low and wavering. You can tell that he’s looking away from you as his face flushes even more than the high grade was already making him. 
“Nope, I’m not gonna stop,” Your hand settles on a piece of plating by his neck, “Not until you love you like I do. You think you’re only good for your power, but I don’t think so. I don’t love you for your power, I love you because you make me smile and you make me happy,” You lean up and kiss his cheek, “I just want to make you happy, too.”
“You already make me happy,” He says, finally turning his gaze to you.
“How would you feel if I started saying that you only liked me for my looks? What would you do if I was sad about that?”
“I’d tell you that- that’s not true...”
“Exactly. You’re so much more than some special power, and even if you don’t see that now, I’m gonna keep bugging you until you do.” You make yourself comfortable on top of him, “You’re not getting rid of me.”
His servo rests lightly on your back, a soothing weight and warmth that you’ve become familiar with. The light from his visor- which was nervous and bright just a second ago- softens, casting a gentle glow over your body.
“I’d never want to.”

Trailcutter: I think it’s time I get my life in order.
Swerve, narrating: But he did not get his life in order. In fact, he got drunk last night and fought a raccoon.

Day 21; Time Travel
So, I ended up feeling really sick yesterday after posting the Road Trip story. Had only finished this one a little bit at that point. I just finished the rest today. I will be working on today's prompt too, but it WILL be short since I want it to just be cute and fluffy. This one, it's going to hurt your feels. This is also how I see how Rodimus would have reacted to the event talked about. This part contains some spoilers for those who have not read the comics, BUT seeing as how this takes place right at the end of the time travel arc in canon, it fits the prompt.
After the party at Swerve's, Rodimus was trying to keep the party going. Thing is, the minibot told him that the bar was now closed and that he should go recharge like everyone else. After a few more attempts he was on his way with a small case of engex and was heading to the observation deck. That's when he ran into Keela, his human girlfriend. 
"Roddy, where are you going with that?" she asked, pointing to the engex. "Was gonna keep the party going at the observation deck. We beat time after all." She gave him a stern look. Yes, they had made sure Megatron had lived and had captured Brainstorm, but she knew him well enough to know he only got really drunk when something was upsetting him. "Rodimus, I know something's wrong. Are you going to tell me or am I going to have to prod you for an answer?"
She had briefly seen how he tore up his office after the Overlord incident, she had seen him drown his sorrows about Drift being sent away, how he was when waiting for the votes to come back in, when he told her what Optimus said to him in the Deadverse, and when Megatron was made co-captain of his ship. She knew he was going to be self destructive in some way and she was not going to let him.
Once the two got to his habsuite, Rodimus sat down on his berth. Keela crawled up next to him and took his servo as best she could in her small hands. "I tried to save him." was all he said at first before he continued. "The first place we went to, Trailcutter was there. At that time he was known as Trailbreaker. I didn't give him any details that would expose us as being from the future, but I tried to get him to avoid his death." Keela squeezed his servo, both in comfort and as a sign to go on. She knew that right now he needed someone to really listen to him. Not many others would actually sit and listen to him. He didn't feel comfortable going to Rung and the only other individual who would was sent away. 
He took a deep invent before he continued. "Chromedome had set up some kind of memory eraser thing in his hand so he wouldn't have to inject the others, but I told him to not shake Trailcutter's hand. But as we were about to leave, he came up and shook Chromedome's hand before we could do anything. I tried to save him but I failed. I know I said not to do anything to change the past, but Trailcutter…" He trailed off, the pain obvious on his face and in his vocalizer.
"I was not the greatest to him, didn't treat him all too well. He wanted to earn Rodimus Stars, but I was such a jerk to him about it. What I said to him was wrong and uncalled for a lot. He did deserve to get them, but something in me, jealousy or something else, made me downplay his efforts." He hung his head. "I wanted to make things right."
Keela squeezed his servo until he got the hint to mass displace to a more suitable size to her. She threw her arms around him and held his helmet close to her chest, near her heart. "I know you felt bad about what happened to Trailcutter, we couldn't properly mourn him because we had to deal with Brainstorm. But, I know that he would feel touched that you did care about him as much as anyone else on this ship." She just held him as he leaked optical fluid, basically crying, as she rubbed his back with one hand and held his helm close to her chest.
Neither one of them knew who fell asleep first or when they did, but Rodimus appreciated coming to in a soft embrace that made him feel safe.

Is there anyone you have a crush on at the moment?
"You are not pulling your punches, are you?" Trailcutter grumbles, oneshotting his big mug of highgrade, already gesturing for another.
"Yeah, I have. To have a crush, it not only means to feel love for someone. It also means to think someone is special, to admire them for it." He exchanges his empty mug for a new, full, one.
"So yes. I do. But its a secret, and im not drunk enough to tell those. Cheers."
