Okay, TFP univererse but Unicron adores humans? Like, the moment he sees these feral little organics scattered around his frame he's like "What is this... adorable little creature? I guess I'm a father now." Extra points if he still poses as an eldritch abomination to Cybertronians . I'm a sucker for a character who is this ruthless and vile creature to everyone but secretly acts like a total softie towards his children😭 If you can, I would like to see reaction from both humans and Cybertronians at this development.

I love a good old bad guy (sort of) redemption arc. A dad gotta love his kiddos even if he is the destroyer of everything.

Abrupt Parenthood

When Unicron awoke and felt the presence of Cybertronians he was about ready to flip out in rage. He was so blinded by their presence initially that when Primus's disgusting Vessel appeared before him and told him of the entities living upon his surface, he did not believe it at first. However Primes were very rarely known to lie, and the one before him felt sickeningly familiar to the one he fought so long ago, and so he briefly paused to consider the given information.

As he felt around his frame he was flabbergasted to discover that the Prime was right, he was totally covered in all sorts of fleshy organic creatures. He paused for nearly ten minutes as he just took it all in, the flora, the fauna, the whole ecosystem that had flourished upon him. And most importantly, he took the time to look at the sentient little life forms that had spawned from him, the tiny and oh so fragile humans. He should have felt disgusted, but as he observed the millions of humans on his frame he found himself feeling oddly protective. And so when the Prime pleaded with him to remain in at least partial slumber, Unicron complied stating that he would need time to consider the situation.

His avatars went back into dormancy and he stopped his awakening, instead opting to watch the small entities living on his surface in awe. They were so short lived, even over the course of the few weeks he spent just watching he saw hundreds of thousands of them be born and die all within mere days of each other. Not only that but they were weak beyond words, at least physically, especially since their only armor was hardly anything of note when compared to Primus's creations. The little humans died daily due to any and all possible causes, some to accidents, some to their own stupidity, some to violence, and even more to pure bad luck. But they also showed immeasurable drive and ingenuity, every single one of them living their lives to the fullest and striving for greatness even when so small in the grand scheme of things.

They were weak, they were short lived, and they were oh so foolish in the sight of elder races. But they were the most wonderful little lifeforms Unicron had ever seen. Before he even realized it, he had grown attached to the beings that were born of him and rapidly accepted the mantle of fatherhood. He did not stop his children from doing as they wished, he did not stop their deaths or interfere in their actions. He may have been the great destroyer, but when it came to his offspring, he was much like Primus. He understood that his children needed to be left to their own devices for the most part if they were to learn. And while he did occasionally use a small avatar or highjack an animal to stop things like suicides and the like, he otherwise left the humans alone.

However his general passiveness in response to his new offspring did not stop him from harassing Primus's creations. While unable to transform or access much of his power due to the humans possibly being harmed, he could still make life difficult for the Cybertronians on his surface.

He cared little for the factions of his brother's creations, but he did tend to be more lenient with the Autobots for a host of reasons. First and foremost because they went to great lengths to protect his offspring and keep them from harms way. Secondly because the Prime, despite being Primus's horrid vessel, loved the humans he had taken on almost as much as Unicron himself. Unicron hated the Prime, but he was loath to loose such a powerful protector for his little ones. So long as Optimus lived, there was a good chance that he would continue to guard Unicron's offspring with his very spark, something the destroyer would not object to considering his situation. And of course his third reason for being kinder to them was simply because they weren't outright attempting to abuse his powers and semi-dormancy at every opportunity. There was a sense of caution that was kept, the Autobots never daring to touch his blood or interact with him at all save for the Prime's occasional attempts to speak with him and ensure he had no plans to awaken fully any time soon.

Usually Unicron's harassment ended up being small things like inconveniencing the Autobots by making it rain more often in certain areas or causing them to be unable to find energon for a while. Although he took care to ensure they didn't starve, he needed them alive for the time being after all. He purposefully liked to bother Optimus by sending ominous signs, leaving the Prime on edge for weeks and usually never doing anything with it. He also made sure that the tree humans under their care were always kept safe, even going out of his way to awaken an avatar when required to keep them from harm. While not usually his way of going about things, he only wanted his children to die naturally, not because of his brother's children's petty war. He was half tempted to try and give the human children gifts or something of the like to protect them, but upon noticing their fear and the general toxicity of his blood, he put that plan aside and served as a protector only when required.

The Decepticons however received no such leniency. While normally Unicron would be pleased with Cybertronians handing themselves over to him in exchange for power, this instance was different. Megatron wanted to rule Cybertron, and Unicron could care less. But the warlord had expressed a desire to cyberform earth as well, destroying all life upon its surface, and that could not stand. Earth and its inhabitants belonged to him, no one was allowed to touch his children, especially not a wayward brat of Primus. So he made life as miserable for the Decepticons as possible without outright murdering them. He would prefer if the Cybertronians wiped each other out, so why get rid of either faction? So long as they obliterated themselves he wouldn't have to worry about retribution from his brother or possible threats from them in the future.

Usually he tended to just screw over the Nemesis's flight patterns with terrible storm and other elemental hazards. He also found it incredibly entertaining to make life harder for the Vehicons in the mines. He sometimes made a few terrorcons with old corpses just to watch the Decepticon troops scream. Screwing with Megatron through strange visions and odd dreams was also funny, especially when the warlord couldn't figure out why he was dreaming of frolicking with the Autobots and doing the tango with Ratchet. It was just so much fun for Unicron to mess with Shockwave too, often subtly altering experiments of his to watch the scientist silently fume. He usually didn't do anything actually harmful unless the Decepticons harmed his humans, in which case he would gladly throw terrorcons at them or shoot their ship with lightening and the like as a warning.

The humans are his children. No one screws with them unless they want a very pissed of god of destruction doing everything in his power to ruin their life.

Octokuber, day 5 - Sixth Sentai

These things are getting harder to color ( o _o)

Love me a character who forces himself into the team by sheer willpower and enthusiasm. I feel like Genta's a comparatively rare example of a sixth who is there because he really just wants to be there. He's just here to sell sushi and make a difference! You can't say no to that!

Okay hear me out..... The kids reversed them selfs to become sparklings again but this time it's permanent no looking back so now Optimus goes crazy because he's sparklings are back and this time no one can take them away or turn them back into their human or they become sari from transformers animated half human but mostly Cybertron but still very over protective Optimus prime

Well since I already did some writing for the tfp kids turned into sparkling au with a similar premise, how about some fluff between Dadmus and his kiddos? Maybe a little protectiveness thrown in there as well?

How in the Pits do you Raise a Sparkling?

Optimus has had some experience handling sparklings before, and honestly when compared to Bumblebee's rambunctious sparkling years, Rafael, Miko, and Jack aren't all that bad individually. However when they are put together, the sheer chaos that stems from them is exhausting to deal with.

Family Drama

Rafael is a very demanding sparkling to handle, but not necessarily due to his behavior. In fact, when compared to other sparklings of his age range, especially Bumblebee when he was small, Rafael is an angel. The issue simply lays with the fact that he is not only a sparkling, but practically a newforged one. This means that he requires more attention in every aspect of his life, everything from the quality and quantity of energon given to him to the amount of recharge he gets.

If the Autobots weren't at war, this would be perfectly acceptable and easy to handle for a veteran Caretaker like Optimus. But the Decepticon threat looming around the corner, M.E.C.H waiting for every opportunity to capture a Cybertronian, the human government being on very precarious terms with the Autobots after the relic incident, and having to deal with two other sparklings makes it rather difficult to get Rafael and the others the care they need. As such, Optimus and the team have made a few compromises to make everything work.

In order to keep the Caretaker-Sparkling bond strong, Optimus carries Rafael around everywhere and at all times except for during battle. When he does have to leave, Rafael's is generally left with Bumblebee who takes his job very seriously. The scout keeps Rafael strapped to him nearly every moment Optimus is gone, terrified that if he loses sight of Rafael for even a moment, the sparkling will wander off or be stolen. Bumblebee is so high strung when Rafael is left with him that he physically cannot so much a devote a second of his time to anything other than the sparkling. When Rafael must be let out to play he stays no further than three feet away from him, keeping his optics trailed on the sparkling throughout the tense hour of playtime. He even snaps at others, not allowing them near due to him becoming hyper protective of Rafael and the other sparklings after the whole relic thing and only growing worse when Optimus is out.

When Optimus does actually recharge of his own free will, he forces himself to get up every two hours on the dot to give Rafael his fuel. It is incredibly tiring work as the process of purifying energon for a young minicon is tedious and time consuming. Optimus needs to wake thirty minutes before Rafael's fueling time just to get everything into the purifier. Then he needs to wake Rafael and help the sparkling consume the purified energon before going through his entire recharge routine all over again to get him back into his cradle. He rocks his newforged sparkling, singing him tails of Cybertron during its golden years no matter how tired he is until the little one falls back into recharge. The Prime is more often than not, left completely exhausted and only kept up and moving because of the Matrix. Ratchet does his best to help, sometimes turning off Optimus's alarms and taking over fueling duties in his stead. The medic is dead on his pedes afterward but he contents himself with the knowledge that Optimus actually got some rest for once.

Getting Rafael properly cleaned is also an issue, but one Optimus has handled with great skill. Sparklings as young as Rafael require extensive cleaning to keep their systems and frames fit for further growth without fear of long term damage. Rafael being a minicon means that he has rather specific cleaning requirements, with all of his small transformation seams needing to be carefully tended to instead of his growth plates since he will not become much bigger. It is tiring work. Rafael needs to be put into an oil bath nearly every day and all his transformation seams and small gears need to be carefully scrubbed and cared for. Rafael loves his baths and always shrieks happily when he needs to be cleaned, he especially loves the rubber ducks June gave him. However due to his size, it can be difficult for Optimus to get to some of his seams and clean them properly. As such Arcee stepped up and has since assisted Optimus in getting his sparkling cleaned up when it is time. She always acts like it is a chore, but in reality she loves helping to clean Rafael.

Then there is the matter of Rafael's education. He is far too young to begin learning anything complex, but he does need to be given a great deal of attention in order to learn basic things like language. Optimus constantly talks in the different dialects of Cybertronian as he carries Rafael around to facilitate this learning. He usually narrates his life and asks Rafael questions which the sparkling happily babbles to. However as he is generally exhausted from everything going on and can't exactly keep Rafael with him at all times, old archive videos have become Optimus's salvation. When he needs a break he turns on some old clips from Cybertron and has Bumblebee sit with Rafael as he watches documentaries. Rafael managed to pick up all sorts of things from watching videos and often times startles the team with random words he learned.

While rather high maintenance, with the help of the team, Rafael is a pleasant sparkling to care for. Miko on the other hand...

It really isn't Miko's fault, but Optimus can barely handle her and sometimes questions weather or not he is a suitable Caretaker for her. He even sometimes spirals into wondering if it would be better for her to go live among other flight frames. He really can't stop the thoughts from popping up. She is a flight frame with many specific needs and Optimus struggles to meet her requirements as he is definably a grounder. He loves her, but he often times feels his sanity start to slip as he deals with the terror that is Miko.

The amount of attention she needs rivals Rafael, but the issue doesn't lay in that, the whole team are completely willing and able to give her any affection she may need. No, the problem is that she, as a flight frame, is determined to bond through Vosian means. She desperately wants to fly with Optimus and have him assist her in cleaning her wings. She wants to build a nest with her Caretaker and feel the breeze flowing through the sensory systems in her wings. And most stressfully to Optimus, she has a great desire to run, jump, fight, bite, and discover just how the flock hierarchy works and where she sits in it.

Optimus tries, he really does try to help her grow up as a proper flight frame. But while he may have wings due to his upgrade from the Forge of Solus Prime, his coding does not work the same way as Miko's and he never feels all that comfortable in the sky. Still, he takes her flying when energon and the situation allow. He doesn't have a cockpit to put Miko in, so he does his best with a makeshift carrier, much to the sparkling's joy when they soar through the air. He managed to haggle a Vosian wing cleaning kit off Starscream in exchange for some energon, and after reading the instructions thoroughly, tries his best to do it right. There have been a few accidents where he unintentionally rubbed a seam a little too hard or was a little too harsh with his scrubbing, leading Miko to cry, much to the Prime's distress.

As for her nesting instincts, Optimus has gone through great lengths to get everything right when it came to attempting to construct one for her. He stole things from the rest of the team and put them in the nest made of soft alloys and threw in a few blankets for good measure. It looks like a mess, but thankfully she loves it and the nest helps soothe her into recharge, but if she doesn't feel Optimus near her during recharge, she throws a fit. This leads to some conflict when Optimus needs to get up to give Rafael his fuel. Her coding also makes her rather possessive, meaning she didn't take all that kindly to her siblings during the first few weeks. There were several instances where Optimus had to pass Rafael off to another bot and ask Jack to go play while he calmed Miko down and assured her that he wasn't abandoning her while letting her know that she needs to be nice.

Then there is the issue of energy. Thankfully for the whole base, Miko does not require any specific kind of energon to function. However she does need quite a lot of it so sustain her increadible energetic nature. The team have had to almost triple their efforts when it comes to getting energon in order to keep the three additional bots fueled. It is downright exhausting and more often than not, Optimus simply does not have the energy to play with Miko the way she wants him to. And so to not end up snapping at her or doing something equally harmful, Optimus tends to leave Miko with the wreckers when she gets too excitable.

Wheeljack and Bulkhead adore Miko, although they do lament the fact that she wasn't forged a grounder like them. As they are also rather high energy bots, they will gladly spend hours playing with her, and when left unsupervised, toss her off a ledge for the other to catch. Bulkhead objected to the game at first but quickly started loving it after he heard Miko's cries of joy. They managed to get away with playing the game for weeks before a very tried, recharge deprived, and slightly delirious Prime dived and snatched Miko out of the air completely traumatized by what he had seen. Since then Wheeljack and Bulkhead have not had Miko in their care unless supervised, instead leaving Miko with Smokescreen under the watch of Ultra Magnus.

As for Jack, he is by far the easiest to handle, and Optimus can't help but feel like the worst bot alive due to how much he focuses on his other sparklings. Miko and Rafael require extraordinary amounts of attention, and Jack, bless his spark, ends up not receiving nearly as much attention as they do but still remains a lovely sparkling. Being a warframe means that Jack is docile when around family, more like a big lovably puppy more than anything else. But when left with strangers or when exposed to danger, he immediately goes into a fight or flight state of mind.

His nature leaves him just as protective of his family as Optimus and highly sensitive to the changes in emotions around him. As such Jack can tell that Optimus is struggling to take care of him and his siblings and he does what he can to be helpful. He watches his siblings when others cannot, he plants kisses on Optimus's helm when he passes out, he doesn't throw fits, he asks for things politely, and he even does his best to try and calm Rafael when he cries. He knows Optimus can't spend as much time with him and he accepts this, instead leaning on others when Optimus is unavailable. Arcee is something of a secondary Caretaker to him. He only remembers small parts of his human existence, enough to know that Arcee if family as well. And that is all he needs to go to her when he has issues.

Arcee will hug him and give him love when Optimus can't. She will hold him in her arms and teach him small things like songs and tell him stories to keep him distracted. Arcee will also help him clean his plating when his Sire cannot and will prepare him flavored energon when possible. Ratchet also does what he can, usually teaching Jack about his trade and introducing him to the basics of Cybertronian medicine when there are not other issues. The medic is also usually the one to tuck him into his berth when Optimus is passed out cold on the floor after a hard day of dealing with everything. Jack doesn't mind this and loves the lovely songs Ratchet sings to him, but not before he kisses his Sire on the cheek and tells him goodnight.

When Optimus does manage to steal the time to spend with the eldest of his three human-turned-Cybertronian sparklings, Jack treasures every moment. Even simple things are more than enough to make Jack's day, much to the sorrow of Optimus who hates himself a little more each time Jack comments on how long its been. Often Optimus uses his time to educate Jack in all that he learned as an Archivist, teaching him to read and write in ancient Cybertronian before helping him go through the old files he managed to preserve. He will use the memories within the Matrix to tell Jack the most intricate tails from Cybertron's long forgotten and bygone ages. And to Jack's excitement when it occurs, on occasion Optimus will take him and teach him basic combat and then mural making to cool down afterward. It is their way of bonding and Jack loves every second, the sound of his Sire's soothing voice retelling old stories and guiding his actions being one of the things he adores most.

On even rarer occasions, Optimus will take Jack out of base and teach him lessons that he himself learned from his time out in the wilds. He shows Jack the forests and teaches him about the cycle of life and why it should be both respected and treasured. He shows Jack the oceans and lets him see just how vast it all is before watching the stars with him, making the sparkling see just how small they both are when compared to the grand scheme of things. And most interestingly to Jack, Optimus will take him to watch human settlements from afar and use them as an example of hope and growth, teaching Jack to respect all forms of life, no matter their shape. Some of the lessons fly over Jack's helm, but he tries to understand his Sire's wisdom as best as he is able. He wants to be as much like Optimus as he can be, even if he doesn't understand everything that is taught to him.

After they spent precious time together, Optimus is always sure to tuck Jack into his berth personally and sing him into recharge, usually leaving a small gift for his sparkling to admire until they can spend quality time together again. While it can be difficult for Optimus to care for his sparklings, the experience being exhausting at best and down right insanity inducing at worst. He still loves them nonetheless and wouldn't give them up for the world. The team agree with him, having three sparklings has made life a lot harder, but it has also brought them joy that has long since been absent.

Love and Protectiveness

After everything Optimus, his team, and his sparklings went through to remain together, they all have some lingering trauma. It took months for Optimus and his team to heal the wounds caused by his sparklings being forcibly taken and returned to human form. It took even longer for Optimus to even begin associating with Fowler and June in any capacity outside of work related issues. The pain was deep, but eventually everything settled for the most part.

Still... there are some lingering side effects from all that occurred.

Rafael cries whenever he is left alone, the suppressed memories of his human life affecting him subconsciously. He may not have access to the memories, but he remembers the soul crushing loneliness and his sparkling mind cannot handle it, causing him to cry out. Optimus is always there to soothe him, opening his chest plates so that Rafael can be bathed in the light of both his spark and the Matrix. This calms the newforged sparkling and allows him to relax, comforted in the familiar warmth of his Sire's core.

Miko occasionally goes through something similar, her suppressed memories of dysphoria and anguish causing her to break down in tears when she is away from Optimus for too long. Her Sire is always there to pluck her up and run a digit along the base of her spine between her wings, reminding her that all is well and that he is there. If this doesn't work, then he will call over the team and together they will hum for her, surrounding her with lovely song and swaddling her in their caring fields. It usually does the trick and calms the little flight framed sparkling down, often sending her into recharge from emotional exhaustion.

As for Jack, he has access to minor parts of his memory due to his physical age, and unfortunately, most of those memories aren't pleasant. He remembers feeling vulnerable, lost, and terrified all the time, like prey backed into a corner. He vividly recalls the face of his human mother twisted in anger, for what reason? He does not know. But all the same, sometimes the memories overcome him and certain things trigger him, sending him into a furious rage in a desperate attempt to protect himself. In one such instance, June can into base looking to see Jack and at the time she was in a less than stellar mood. Her face reminded Jack of her anger from the memories and he flew into a rage, screaming, kicking, flailing, and attempting to attack her when she came into view.

Jack grabbed his siblings and hid them behind him, his plating flared and his fangs on full display as he gazed up in undeniable rage. He hissed like a creaking machine before breaking out into a terrifying shriek when June tried to get close. Optimus immediate stepped in and carefully redirected Jack's attention onto him, making it clear that he was the defender, not Jack. After he made his place clear, he picked up Jack and his other two sparklings and held them close to him, calming all of them down with the thrum of his spark and comforting words.

As for the team? Ratchet never wanted to return the sparkling to human form in the first place and has since developed an even greater hatred toward the human government. After making amends with Optimus, he has taken up a place as his most adamite defender on all matters regarding the sparklings. He does everything in his power to keep the humans off and keep Fowler from harassing the Prime. He even keeps the relic that caused the whole situation under lock and key, only accessible to himself and Optimus as a precaution. He can become a little too aggressive at times when it comes to the humans and their interference, but none stop him as he speaks for all of them.

The wreckers and Arcee sit in a similar boat. None of them are all that fond of the human government after all that went down and prefer to keep their distance. Instead they spent their time feverishly keeping their optics on the sparklings, all of them terrified to a degree that they will be taken away again. Sparklings are a blessing, and so not only do they fear them being taken, but also of what might befall their Prime if they were to be stolen from him a second time. They prefer not to consider the possibility.

Ultra Magnus and Optimus are still on neutral terms after everything as the commander was the one who forced the team to go along with the process of returning the sparklings to human form. He only wanted to keep the team safe, and Optimus knows and understands this. Still their relationship is not fully repaired and Ultra Magnus is usually met with flared plating or a sharp gaze when he treads too near the sparklings. He is allowed to interact with the sparklings but Ultra Magus knows he has not been fully forgiven. And so mostly out of guilt, he does most of the energon hunting and guards the relic room, fearful that the humans might use the relics against them.

Bumblebee and Smokescreen quickly got wrapped up into big sibling roles and have not had a moment's peace since. They love their siblings and are grateful to be able to bond with Optimus while they go about assisting him. But the stress of all that happened has left them both highly paranoid and nervous. They have both had panic attacks several times after losing sight of a sparkling, leading Optimus or another of the team to have to calm them. It has gotten better with time, leading them to become less strict in their watch over the sparklings and more fun. Still the scars linger...

At the end of the day, the team may sit together in one big mess of blankets and watch a film, content with each other's presence and wanting to simply enjoy the moment. They are family, and even if some wounds still hurt, they will never abandon one another.

[classychassiss]

Maybe this is a hot take but I’m always a bit disappointed when people read the part about Orion Pax lamenting about Six Lasers and not being allowed inside as only a 'haha' moment and use this to paint him as privileged and out of touch, and completely gloss over the fact that he’s openly talking about an arbitrary form of segregation he is beholden to.

Like this is a genuine plea: I would really like to encourage you all to approach the Aligned Continuity - the novels, the games, TFP and Covenant - all as parts of one big story and read about them, at least a basic summary, all in some capacity. Transformers Prime is only one part of a bigger story and its the one that deviated the most and I think if you engage with all the material with an open mind and DON'T import any ideas from IDW or other continuities, what you will get is a story that is distinct and tragic and rooted in Cybertronians being a colonized people and how they deal with the repercussions afterwards.

And listen, colonization, imperialism and slavery are in the fabric of Science Fiction: most stories you engage with in Sci-Fi, especially older ones, have elements of this and its not always progressive. I think its become so codified that people will gloss over it and not think about what that means. But I really want to encourage you to read the Aligned Continuity through a non-Americanized lens, and really think about whats going on. Because this isn't new to Transformers, but we rarely ever see them on other end, and I personally believe that their societal issues being rooted in Quintesson ideas is important. I think that their world slowly losing energon and stagnating and on the precipice of self-destruction is important.

And I want you to think about this, and this language, and the actions they take as a previously non-ultra violent race into who they become during their war, and think about which characters choose to perpetuate that same colonial violence. And I also want you to acknowledge that no one in Aligned is SO privileged that they were somehow untouched by any form of violence, there is NO ONE in this universe who doesn't, at the very base of their character, understand that something is wrong and that their collective choice to not face that trauma head on is a big part of that. That the layers of shedding those held ideas is a difficult and ugly process.

And I want you to think of the parable of the War of the Primes and how Alpha Trion laments that in the end, the notion that any Prime is somehow 'eviler' because of some arbitrary belief that some of them were 'closer in spark' to Unicron was, in fact, wrong, and that truthfully ALL the Primes had been traumatized by Unicron but they allowed themselves to become divided and didn't communicate their growing anxiety and apathy and rage and it resulted in all of them participating in some form towards their tragic downfall. And I want you to think about Cybertron and the Quintessons and the war they have later on

What's bumblebee and cliffjumper like in the sg universe?

Well by logic they would hate each other but this time unironically, Bee is very shy while Cliffjumper hates taking responsibility in his work and taking care of his little brother. If this goes on they’re definitely gonna kill each other in the future.

#sparkling siblings au #tfa bumblebee #tfa cliffjumper #many of these sg characters are just plain evil #it hurts to see these guys unironically hate their kids and the decepticons are so scared for these babies #Primus bless them

Now me and Shockblurr have opinions about each other but I have a very specific shockblurr dynamic in my head that I find fascinating again and again

And it is Blurr 100% taking the lead in a relationship between them, pre-series during the series or post s3

I don't know why

#maccadam #transformers #shockblurr #tfa shockwave #tfa blurr #i was watching a YouTube video last week that said shockwave (in their opinion) was the most evil decepticon in all of Transformers #well at least idw Shockwave #but #yeah i can see that #and i understand why shockblurr would realistically be... not a very healthy relationship #i just think blurr deserves some mutually agreed upon vengeance for Shockwave cubing him #and a riding crop of his own #I should get off of Tumblr now
