@justawannabearchaeologist

I wish I could ask from this blog but thanks for the answer! Ngl I wasn’t expecting a whole ass paragraph lmao

I love writing fluff but oh my god the angst and conflict is what I’m good at writing. It’s less often with the canon characters and more with ocs because I can have things exactly how I want it, but with the crossovers I always include at least two canon characters. The only thing is that the fic storylines deviate so much from the original plot of the show towards the end that it gives me a lot more freedom than I normally would have (and one crossover takes place like a decade after rid2015 but that’s not relevant atm) if I was just writing a crossover between the canon universes.

2 oc rants utc

Okay so there’s Sunpoint, Decepticon Seeker turned Autobot post exodus. His story changes up the second half of season three, but honestly starts in season one by keeping Skyquake alive, and Dreadwing by proxy. Knock Out and Breakdown join during season one too because I think having them on the Autobots would be super interesting. Soundwave also joins, but that’s during season three after some things happen that aren’t canon to the tfp series.

I kinda just throw Sunpoint, Knock Out, Wheeljack, and Soundwave into the tfa universe because A) I love continuity crossovers and B) it’s the most mixed up group I’ve put together. There’s gonna be conflict with them and the tfa cast, AND between just the four of them. Smokescreen does get involved a few days before the beginning of season two, since I don’t plan on having them there for too long.

Three of them were Decepticons for the longest time. Wheeljack is still iffy about all of them, even more so with Soundwave.

Sunpoint and Soundwave are fliers, something unheard of in the tfa universe aside from the jettwins. Any Decepticon who defected to the Autobots reformatted to a ground frame (like Drift).

Soundwave is still a Decepticon in tfa.

Knock Out and Sunpoint don’t have known tfa counterparts.

Sunpoint is very VERY anti-caste and anti-corruption, he would absolutely despise the Elite Guard and what they do. He’d honestly be more on board with the tfa Decepticons than the Autobots.

They’re all taller than the tfa crew, only the Decepticons are taller than them, which led to a lot of misunderstandings in the beginning, especially with Soundwave’s colors, Knock Out’s optics, and his and Sunpoint’s sharp fingers. The only one who wouldn’t immediately be mistaken for a Decepticon would be Wheeljack.

I can do a lot with just Sunpoint there, sure, it would be fun to figure out how he would interact with the tfa cast on his own, but throwing others into the mix is a lot more interesting. Not gonna touch much on Wheeljack since you pretty much have him covered lol.

Soundwave is nothing like his tfa counterpart, you already hit on that, but the thought of animated Team Prime seeing him in action fighting WITH them. On one hand, they’d be impressed, but on the other, they’re horrified at the thought of ever having to fight him at any point before he defected.

Knock Out is a medic who does things unconventionally. He makes Ratchet question how the Decepticons had him as a medic (both tfa and aligned).

Sunpoint is a fighter, sure, but he’s jumpy as hell whenever someone comes remotely close to his wings. On top of that, he’s honestly terrified at the thought of going against Megatron, even if this one is less tyrannical than his.

None of them really bat an eye at Starscream’s treachery or Megatron coming back again and again, they’re used to it at this point.

What they are surprised by is the fact that the war is over, there are hardly any Decepticons on Earth, and Team Prime, a space bridge repair crew, has the damn AllSpark at the bottom of Lake Erie.

Also Decepticons flying in root mode. That’s a thing, apparently, and it takes them a little to adjust to that fact, and even longer for them to have to stop clarifying that, no, neither Sunpoint nor Soundwave can fly in root mode.

Things are more of the same, it’s just easier for Team Prime to do things because A) they have another medic now, B) they have fliers, and C) they have a Wrecker, a former gladiator, and a search and rescue worker/Seeker.

Things get slightly more complicated when Smokescreen comes into play. He’s a member of a nonexistent Elite Guard, but when the tfa crew sees the emblem, they assume that the Elite Guard is still active in the tfp universe. He has to explain that, as far as he knows, he’s the only member of the Elite Guard that’s still alive.

When the Elite Guard comes to Earth, Sunpoint immediately hates it. For one, they clocked him as a Decepticon and immediately tried to attack him, Soundwave, and Knock Out, and he already didn’t like his own Sentinel. Tfa Sentinel just took ignorance and pride to a whole other level.

Both Sunpoint and Knock Out were already tense around tfp Ultra Magnus, but they don’t trust tfa Ultra Magnus whatsoever, and rightfully so. Literally none of them except Wheeljack and Smokescreen are trusted by the Elite Guard members (with the exception being Jazz) because they had to explain that, yes, they used to be Decepticons at some point.

This is where it mostly ends, they only stay for one or two more episodes. This one isn’t actually canon to the storyline of the original fic, it’s just a little offshoot I thought would be fun to write. I didn’t put nearly as much thought into this one compared to the next.

The REAL fun comes with Longarm.

—

This story is entirely self indulgent because I wanted the Decepticons to have a human, so if this seems cliché or Mary Sue-like then I’m sorry lol.

The main Decepticons break off from the faction during the first episodes of season 3, creating their own called the Ascenticons (yes I recycled IDW stuff), and are replaced with Swindle (BD and yes, he dies), Flatline (KO), Blitzwing (SS), and Soundblaster (SW). They run with less of a hierarchy - Starscream is in charge of mining operations, Breakdown is in charge of the troops, Knock Out is still CMO, and Soundwave is still the communications and security officer. They function more like a family unit than anything.

Longarm - or Natsuo, I’ll alternate throughout - is a mess and my god he doesn’t take things well at all. On top of taking on the leadership responsibilities of people like Ultra Magnus or Dreadwing at the age of 19 as the Ascenticon’s strategist (because Natsuo doesn’t have the sense to stay out of an alien war), he also has to deal with the fact that an impulse decision on his part ended with him becoming techno-organic. While he does figure out some ways to deal with everything, he has a tendency to get absorbed in anything else as a distraction, and in this case, it’s parallel dimensions, alternate timelines, and possible multi-dimensional travel.

The universe jump is technically purposeful: Longarm built a machine specifically to try and do that. He just didn’t expect it to go off while he, Breakdown, and Knock Out were working on it, and he didn’t know how to undo it either. Good news: no plot intervention in the tfp universe for me to figure out with time differences, this is set 10-15 years after rid2015.

Breakdown and Natsuo are confused as to why they’re on Earth again. Their first thought is that they made a teleporter instead, which, while it did work, wasn’t what they wanted. After the find Knock Out, they realize that they can’t contact anyone they had the information for on Earth, not the humans, and not the Rescue Bots. Knock Out goes into the city and tells them exactly what’s happening, which is where everything starts.

Longarm of course makes the tfa crew panic because they all know who Longarm Prime is in terms of Autobot ranks. Bumblebee and Bulkhead immediately accuse him of being an imposter and “a horrible one at that.” He has to explain what happened and shows them the device before asking them for help with it.

The Bots are obviously on edge, with him sharing a name with a Prime and all.

They do at least trust that he’s not immediately going to hurt them; after all, Longarm Prime wouldn’t ever do that.

Breakdown and Knock Out are fine, Team Prime has a moderate level of trust in them.

None of them are really trusted fully, but they place their full trust in the tfa Team Prime.

Ratchet is iffy about Longarm, because he never answers simple questions directly. Bumblebee once asked how old he was and Longarm’s response was “Old enough.” He has a roundabout way of giving his answers, either keeping them vague or circumventing the question altogether. Even though he doesn’t completely trust Longarm, Ratchet still acknowledges that, yes, he’s smart, both in terms of science and strategy.

Seeing Nanosec was… disturbing for Natsuo. It just reminded him how short human lives were compared to his own current one.

One thing is that Longarm always resonated more with villains in fiction, and it translated over into alternate universes. He’s entirely aware that, yes, the Decepticons are messed up, but he always feels like he has to at least try and know them instead of taking a biased statement for fact.

This leads to a lot of mistrust between him and the team, especially when he starts to find Blitzwing similar to him (in terms of having OSDD and Blitzwing resembling a system). As much as Longarm’s glad to find someone with a disorder similar to his own, he understands that, yeah, he’s still the enemy.

He does stop the others from calling Blitzwing a freak, though.

He tends to keep to himself when he’s not actively involved in a conversation, keeping himself separated from the others.

Optimus sympathizes with Longarm a lot because he can tell that he’s young, even with all the ambiguous answers when asked anything remotely personal. He ends up seeing him as just another team member, but they tend to butt heads at times because of how stubborn Longarm can be. They both try and take responsibility for everyone.

Whenever Natsuo’s around Bumblebee or Bulkhead, he’s either talking just as much as Bumblebee or he’s just silently listening to them or watching what they do. He does occasionally snap at Bumblebee for being too loud, but he always says that he doesn’t mind the talking, just the volume. Bumblebee eventually tries to be quieter whenever he notices. Bulkhead just appreciates Longarm’s company since they both have an interest in art.

He and Prowl don’t talk to each other much. Longarm can never figure out a way to break the silence without making it awkward, so most of their interactions are limited to a few words, and everything else is just sitting near each other in silence. They do eventually get to the point where they don’t exactly need to talk because it’s easy enough for Prowl to pick up on smaller habits of the other and nonverbal communication is something Longarm has a lot of experience with. Outside of that, they hardly know anything about each other.

Now with Breakdown, he sees a smaller, younger version of Bulkhead, someone who he never liked being around, and has to remember that this isn’t the Bulkhead he knows. That fact becomes glaringly obvious after one fight, and he realized that this Bulkhead was only similar in name, appearance, and technically function, too.

Tfa Bumblebee gets on his nerves a lot. He doesn’t stop talking or take social cues, which is something Breakdown is used to, but he’s not normally around someone who seemingly never runs out of things to say. Even Starscream had his quiet moments, but no, not Bumblebee. He generally tries to avoid starting a conversation with him.

He doesn’t mind being around Prowl, but it doesn’t do him any favors because Prowl could be right there and he wouldn’t know. It’s made him wary and slowly brings back his paranoia, although it’s not extreme. The moment Prowl is aware of this, he tries to be mindful about where he stands near Breakdown, taking special care to avoid standing in his blind spots.

With Optimus, he’s more or less indifferent. Breakdown will absolutely go against orders if he thinks it’s right, but as long as it works, he’s down to just follow orders.

Breakdown more or less steers clear of Ratchet. He doesn’t want a wrench flying towards him, even if this Ratchet doesn’t have a seemingly infinite supply of said tool

Knock Out is a whole other case. He never passes up the opportunity to annoy Optimus or Ratchet, and will go out of his way to do so if he thinks he can get away with it. Despite that, he does acknowledge that Optimus is technically superior, even though he never followed the Autobot chain of command. He’ll follow orders, but he’ll challenge every single one he deems ridiculous and refuses to do anything that could mess up his paint.

Bumblebee is the one he gets along with the most. They’re both suckers for human media, and Knock Out loves having someone to race, even if they have to resort to sneaking out just to do that. He does wind up being involved in more than a few illegal street races, but Bumblebee never snitches.

While he’s not the biggest fan of Bulkhead’s innate ability to make a mess or break things, Knock Out does take an interest in his paintings. It’s not that he likes it, but he finds it interesting that tfp Bulkhead is a warrior who doesn’t (in his opinion) think of anything except fighting while tfa Bulkhead is more interested in just doing what he enjoys.

He doesn’t have much to do with Prowl. They mesh like oil and water, so they don’t interact very often. Knock Out is flashy, while Prowl tries to be subtle. They don’t get along very well, but they get along well enough that if they were fighting alone with only each other then they would be fine.

Knock Out doesn’t mesh as well with the Autobots in this story because he’s not one of them. In Sunpoint’s story, he’s a member of tfp Team Prime since late season one. In this story, he’s in a separate faction, and he’s in the enemy faction for two seasons.

This isn’t even going into the mess that is them being involved in the actual plot. They all learn about the Elite Guard, and they hate it. Natsuo tries to stay out of the way but the three of them inevitably get dragged into things.

When Longarm hears about Blackarachnia, he backslides with his coping mechanisms because of how much she reminds him of what he went through (albeit in the reverse order - Cybertronian to techno-organic).

Ratchet is the only one on the tfa team to notice it. He doesn’t tell the others, because he gets what it’s like to not want to bring up events, but he does talk to Knock Out and Breakdown about it.

It was a big surprise for Team Prime when they came back to base and all three of them were sleeping on the couch with their holoforms.

Knock Out is more fascinated than anything, because Longarm is the only techno-organic he knows.

Breakdown and Longarm come with Bulkhead and Prowl to Dinobot Island, and they hang behind slightly and make jokes about “Decepticon Island,” which both confuses the other two and scares them because the few they’ve had to deal with are enough for them, and an island full of Decepticons sounds like a nightmare.

Breakdown immediately recognized the original Dinobot’s names, he knew the Wreckers during the war and was well aware of them.

Longarm only has experience with rid2015 Grimlock, so the tfa Dinobots definitely surprised him. (”What do you mean he’s not green?”)

He eventually learns how to communicate with the Dinobots and sometimes comes over to the island just to hang out with them.

Longarm also meets Meltdown for he first time, another victim of stupid decisions leading to unwanted results. He doesn’t like him, though, because he’s already seen what Meltdown did.

When Prowl starts training Sari, Natsuo takes it upon himself to teach her proper self defense she can actually use against humans if she ever needs it. (Again, he has an inability to stay out of things.)

During the fight with Megatron, Knock Out stays out of the way as much as he can. He’s dealt with a Dark Energon-addled Megatron and doesn’t want to deal with one who’s after the AllSpark instead of Optimus’ life. He ends up having to repair everyone when Ratchet can’t because they don’t have Sari’s key.

Longarm and Breakdown are holding their own against Blitzwing and Lugnut. Breakdown and Lugnut’s fight is more brute forcing it, while Longarm and Blitzwing are relying more on strategy.

Natsuo is holding out against Blitzwing because he’s not as strong, but he’s durable and has a more stable system than Blitzwing, which he uses to his advantage. He feels bad about forcing switches, but he knows from his experience in the tfp universe that he can’t fight Blitzwing head on.

When they Elite Guard finally comes to Earth, Longarm is pissed. They took decades to even get here when the Decepticons managed to find them first, and the only reason for that even happening was detecting the AllSpark energy. The Elite Guark KNEW that Team Prime had the AllSpark and could’ve easily detected the energy signature and gotten to Earth first.

Sentinel makes a huge fuss about ‘Decepticon scum’ and ‘organic contamination’ but ultimately can’t go against Ultra Magnus’ orders to let them in, as they’re technically a part of Team Prime. It doesn’t make him any less passive-aggressive. The only thing stopping him from outright declaring them as criminals to be arrested is the fact that Ultra Magnus wants them to get back to their own world, which means they need help.

Ultra Magnus is... both intrigued and annoyed. On one hand, there’s another Longarm who’s apparently capable of inter-dimensional travel, but on the other, it’s clear to him that all three of them were Decepticons before, even if tfa Team Prime never took an issue with it. He doesn’t think for even a second that the Longarm he knows could be a Decepticon, and thinks it’s just one of those things that’s different in the tfp universe.

He does contact Wheeljack about possibly fixing the device Longarm built.

Jazz is more fascinated than anything. He hadn’t ever thought about the possibility of there being an alternate reality before, but now he’s wondering if there’s an alternate version of him. Natsuo doesn’t know tfp/rid2015 Jazz personally, but he tells tfa Jazz that, yeah, there is.

When Sentinel demands proof of any Decepticon presence on Earth other than the Ascenticons, Knock Out decides to speak up and mention that Longarm records every single fight he’s involved in for future reference. Sentinel tries to make him shut up, but Ultra Magnus stops him and asks to see said recordings.

Longarm is extremely selective about what he shows, because as much as he understands that the Decepticons are a threat, he doesn’t want to reveal everything to the Elite Guard, because if they figure out that they can manipulate Blitzwing, they’ll figure out they can do something similar to him if they ever find out about his disorder.

They’re all too happy when the Elite Guard finally leaves Earth, especially with Sentinel gone.

You had Wheeljack talk to Ratchet about Wreck-Gar, I’m having Knock Out talk to him.

Knock Out completely understands how Ratchet is feeling with Wreck-Gar having disappeared. He hasn’t exactly dealt with that specific kind of grief before, but he’s dealt with the guilt that came with what happened to Natsuo.

Around this time, Longarm finally fixes the device, but waits a few days just to make sure nothing will go wrong. They stick around just long enough for a certain blue racer who can beat Knock Out to show up before returning to their own worlds.

When they come back, they clear everything up with their Optimus, and Natsuo returns to Earth for the time being to get help on Griffin Rock, since they have the technology to teleport and time travel there. It takes about two to three years, but Longarm finally comes back to the tfa universe, this time on purpose with Wildbreak and Blurr (because I’m a sucker for the Rescue Bots series).

When he comes back, it’s well after season three, even after (the unfortunately cancelled) season four. After Sari discovers she’s techno-organic, after Shockwave revealed his true colors, after the cube incident, after Ultra Magnus was attacked and almost killed, and after Megatron was finally defeated.

The trust he built with the Autobots on Earth is completely shattered because of Shockwave. The moment he steps into the base, they’re hostile towards him.

Bumblebee accuses him of being a traitor who lied about leaving the Decepticons, and everyone is defensive around him. When they find out he brought Blurr with him, they try to separate them, which leaves Wildbreak standing off to the side deciding what to do because he doesn’t want to get involved, but those are his friends.

Longarm starts arguing with the others, telling Blurr to take Wildbreak and get out because they don’t have to hear this. Bumblebee insists that they stay because they need to know what kind of bot their friend is. It takes a while, but finally Bumblebee snaps at him to stop playing dumb and that they all know he’s Shockwave, and that he hates that he was tricked by Longarm twice.

Natsuo just stared at him with a mix of disbelief and anger. He didn’t think he would ever be accused of being a Decepticon again after the events of rid2015, and the only reason for that was some individual misunderstandings. The fact that they were accusing him of being Shockwave specifically only rubbed salt in the wound.

Sari and Bulkhead came back at that moment, and Longarm turned to them to ask what was going on with everyone. Bumblebee called him Shockwave again, and he spun back around, spitting curses and a very angry explanation that he DESPISES Shockwave for what he did to him, that he wasn’t planning on almost throwing away his whole life just to end a war that he knows he had no business being involved in when he was barely an adult.

The rest of the team just stood there before Sari finally spoke up, asking what he meant by ‘barely an adult’, because Knock Out had told her that almost all life comes from the Well of AllSparks, which was inactive at the time, and that Cybertronians in their world mature quickly.

Longarm just looks her up and down before kneeling in front of her.

“I’m like you.”

Sari immediately asked how he found out and he clarified that, no, he didn’t mean he found out, he meant that he became techno-organic, like Blackarachnia. That he hadn’t thought Shockwave would make a weapon that could destroy the armor he was using, and he hadn’t expected the cybermatter to keep him alive by repairing the armor and fusing him to it in the process when he tried to reach his Bumblebee.

Optimus stepped forward and asks for clarification, and Blurr butts in to explain that Natsuo was a human before, but he’s been living as a Cybertronian for over a decade.

Longarm stops him and says that he’ll tell them himself, and reintroduces himself, telling them that Natsuo is his real name.

Team Prime is reluctant to listen, but do so anyways. Blurr and Wildbreak are hearing the full story for the very first time. Bringing up what happened aboard the Nemesis wasn’t something Natsuo liked to do, so no one around him asked about it very much.

After he finished, Bumblebee apologized for accusing him right off the bat without bothering to ask him anything, but Longarm brushes it off because it was justified in his eyes.

Bumblebee takes the chance to ask how old Longarm is again. They were all surprised when he answered with 36. Sari works out that he was almost 20 when the battle on the Nemesis happened.

It takes some time to rebuild the trust between all of them. It’s been two years since he, Breakdown, and Knock Out left, and the Autobots who knew about him all thought that he was a traitor. It’s not an opinion that can be changed overnight.

After a weeks, Longarm finally asks about Prowl. He was expecting an answer along the lines of “He’s back on Cybertron”, not to hear that he was gone. He didn’t bring it up again after that.

Blurr and Wildbreak are still adjusting to being in an alternate world. While Blurr is used to not keeping up the ‘robots in disguise’ façade because that was dropped in Griffin Rock ages ago, Wildbreak still tries to keep out of sight of humans. It’s funny to see this almost 20 foot alien notice a human is watching him and transform before speeding away, which drives Fanzone insane, he had to deal with Knock Out racing before and he suspects (correctly) that Wildbreak is going to start racing, too.

Blurr gravitates more towards Bumblebee when compared with the other members of Team Prime, mainly because they have similar tendencies. At some point, Bumblebee makes an off-handed remark mentioning tfa Blurr, and tfrb Blurr begins asking about his counterpart.

He doesn’t have to ask for long because a few (one former) members of the Elite Guard come to Earth, Blurr included.

Jazz, Sentinel, the jettwins, and Blurr show up, and Sentinel immediately accuses Longarm of being a traitor, commanding the jettwins to arrest him before the others intervene and explain that Shockwave is a separate Cybertronian. Jazz fully accepts it, the jettwins are mostly indifferent since they never knew him personally, and Sentinel is reluctant to stand down, but does anyways. They don’t mention he’s techno-organic, Sentinel’s on edge as it is.

Natsuo takes the chance to introduce Blurr and Wildbreak, and tfa Blurr immediately begins talking, asking about tfrb Blurr and how they differ.

No one catches the entire rant, and are surprised when Longarm answers each question or defers to his Blurr for an answer, only asking tfa Blurr for a few clarifications. He leaves the others to interact after answering, not wanting to deal with Sentinel again.

He disappears for a few days, and none of the tfa bots can find him. The only thing they ever get is a quick response that he’s okay before he goes radio silent, and Wildbreak and Blurr explain that it’s a normal ocurrence. They don’t find out anything else until a report comes in about a blue and red motorcycle with an unknown driver participating in races alongside a light blue racecar with white decals and a dark blue sports car with orange accents.

Tfa Blurr shows up at one of the races, and afterwards tracks down Longarm to ask him about how the device worked, but the conversation inevitably turns to Shockwave.

Natsuo asked what exactly happened, and Blurr gives an abridged version of the whole cube incident. The only response he gets is “Shockwave hurting others is a universal constant, I guess.”

It’s Blurr’s turn to ask for clarification.

Natsuo explains that Shockwave knew that he would be the easiest to take out if he could break through the armor, and that if he did, the Ascenticons would have to rely solely on Starscream for strategizing. Starscream was good at leading, but he panicked if his plans fell apart, and in battle, that was often. He told him how Shockwave had engineered a weapon to break through his armor, and that Blitzwing had shot him with it while he was fighting some vehicons. How the only reason he was still alive was jumping into the cybermatter in an attempt to reach Bumblebee.

It takes a while for them to get to the point of friends, but they bond over their mutual trauma received from Shockwave.

The Elite Guard leaves pretty soon after that, but Longarm gives Jazz the blueprints for the jump device, saying that was part of the reason he made the trip again. He also said he didn’t trust Sentinel enough to give it to him.

Sari and Bumblebee decide to show Blurr and Wildbreak around the city while Longarm is left to his own devices. Blurr is ecstatic to be able to visit a big city without having to pretend to just be a car, and Wildbreak is... less enthused, but still interested.

Wildbreak admits that he’s been in a few races, and Bumblebee insists on racing both him and Blurr to see who’s the fastest. Sari has to remind him that he can’t just race anywhere, but she’ll find a place for them if she can. Blurr is boasting that he’ll win, and Wildbreak says he’ll get back at Blurr for beating him while he was with the Stunticons.

Optimus and Blurr get along better than the others thought they would, and definitely better than Blurr thought. He assumed that Optimus would be just as strict as Heatwave, but they ended up bonding over the feeling of not belonging with the others that they both had.

Wildbreak gravitated towards Bulkhead since he was one of the calmer ones on the team. It wasn’t that he hated the energy the others had, he just preferred to be around someone quieter after dealing with Drag Strip for so long. Bulkhead liked having someone to bounce ideas off of, but he missed talking to Natsuo about art since talking about different styles was fun.

They both steered clear of Ratchet, but that’s mainly because they tended to annoy him a lot if they were together.

While Longarm was on his own, he ran into Blitzwing. A few Decepticons had decided to stay on Earth after they defeated Megatron, and he happened to be one of them, along with Slipstream, Cyclonus, Starscream, and the Predacons.

Blitzwing was on edge at first, but Longarm explained that he didn’t care about factions so long as everything was peaceful. If the Decepticons left well enough alone, he couldn’t care less.

It did confuse Blitzwing when he introduced himself as Longarm, so he just told Blitzwing to call him Natsuo.

They never had the chance to talk before, but Blitzwing quickly caught onto the fact that Natsuo was never surprised or disgusted when his faces switched. He asked about it, so Natsuo explained that he had something similar, a disorder formed from trauma that ended up with separate alters, although he can’t tell his own apart most of the time.

He also explained that he was techno-organic, which wasn’t something he had wanted, the same way Blitzwing didn’t want to have multiple faces.

Blitzwing was entirely unaware that dissociative disorders existed, so it was a bit of a comfort to know that it wasn’t only him, even if it was a human disorder.

Natsuo doesn’t stay long after that and leaves, telling Blitzwing to ignore anyone who says he’s a freak or creep.

He eventually manages to find Blackarachnia, who was staying on Dinobot Island with her Predacons, and asks to talk to her.

She didn’t want anything to do with him initially, but the moment he mentions her being techno-organic, she snaps at him to leave. He insists on staying, telling her he just wanted to ask about her experience.

Blackarachnia isn’t very happy with him and gives him a very short version of what happened.

Natsuo just nods and says he understands why she wouldn’t want to tell him, admitting that he wouldn’t normally talk about it, either. He told her the only reason he came to find her is because of their situations.

When she realizes that he was techno-organic, she asks how it happened, and he told her about Shockwave’s weapon. She was thrown off by the fact that he was human, not Cybertronian, but acknowledged that he seemed well-adjusted around others. It was easier for him to hide the fact that he was techno-organic, after all. They don’t say much else to each other.

When he comes back, Sari asks if they’re going to leave again. He tells her that he already took care of what he came back for, so they’re leaving soon, since Blurr is still a Rescue Bot and can’t be gone for too long.

Bulkhead overhears and asks if he’ll come back, and Longarm replies that he might, but they can always ask Jazz about the device and tells them that he gave him the blueprints to be passed along to Wheeljack.

Wildbreak and Blurr are disappointed to leave, but they promise to try and come back whenever they have the time to do so.

I’m gonna end this here because I could probably go on for ages if I don’t. There’s a lot of things I didn’t add just because of the length lmao. TLDR: Putting former Decepticons and a mentally ill techno-organic in a different universe comes with chaos.

Heyo! Could you write cuddling hcs for tfp, tfa and RID bumblebee? Reader is a gn plus size human btw. If it’s too many then just tfp and RID then pls ^-^ thank you!!

Bumblebee Cuddling Headcanons (sfw)

Heyooo thank you for requesting!! Haven't written hcs in a while so it's been a nice refresher!

Reader is implied to be plus sized, gender neutral and human

TFP

- The sweetest, with the gentleness of a saint.

- He will constantly beep for permission before even laying a servo on you, knowing how important it is to not push you into doing anything you dislike.

- Despite his exuberant personality, he's very timid regarding physical touch. You'll need to take the lead to give him some encouragement.

- "It's okay, Bee, c'mere."

- If you accept and take the lead, there will be no shortage of soft touches. Bee just loves how soft you feel pressed against him.

- Lay on him. Please. You're not heavy to him at all. Lay on his chest or cradle in his neck, wherever you feel most safe, as long as he can touch you.

- Will give you gentle head nudges and nuzzles in place of kisses.

RID15

- He's also considered rather sweet but exudes more passion and romance in his movements.

- If you're resting alone, Bee will gently approach you and lay a servo on your back or side.

- Especially if you're relaxing outdoors, it's even more enticing if it's under the Milky Way.

- "Hey, mind if I join you?"

- He will protectively curl around you, pulling you close to him with your hips.

- Bee loves to play with your hair/massage your head, amazed at how relaxed you get when he does.

- But what he loves even more is teasing and squeezing your squishy parts gently, finding it one of the more endearing parts about you physically.

- Gentle kisses wherever he can reach. Your back, head, tummy, hands, lips; he will appreciate and worship you like the celestial being you are.

TFA

- Expect spontaneous, affectionate cuddle sessions with this version of Bee.

- On the couch? In your comfy bed? Wherever you are, he will search for you and jump into your soft arms (metaphorically, of course, to minimise bruising).

- The one to most likely seek you out for his comfort. Either from a long day or to find refuge from the rest of Team Prime for teasing him.

- Whatever it is, he'll always come to you.

- Wants to lay on your lap and nuzzle into your soft tummy more often than not but is not opposed to the opposite.

- "Can I stay here for a little while? I promise it won't be for long..." Please don't fall for it; he always lies.

- Intense, playfully romantic staring competitions/try not to kiss each other challenges. Bee always loses, though; he just can't resist how cute you look when your face gets red, trying not to laugh.

TFP Ultra Magnus and Wheeljack reaction to seeing Tfa autobots (Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, Ratchet, Bulkhead, Prowl, Sentinel Prime, Ultra Magnus, Jazz, The Twins)

Hi thanks for the Ask! ( Doing this on mobile so please forgive any grammer/spelling mistakes, I can never type properly on mobile)

TFP Ultra Magnus: Magnus automatically wants to bash Tfa Ultra Magnus's head in due to he's treatment of the Tfa Autobots. He is horrified that this version of himself is like that. Tfa Optimus reminds him of himself sometimes Ultra Magnus wants to lend a servo but doesn't know if he should. He finds Tfa Bumblebee to be in need of a little more discipline but he doesn't want to overstep any boundaries. Ultra Magnus respects Tfa Ratchet for what he's gone through. He was quite surprised to find that Tfa Bulkhead isn't a wrecker and he seems to be more responsible. Tfa Prowl seems to be a quiet mech that enjoys earth's nature. Sentinel's attitude bothers Ultra Magnus a lot. He hasn't met the twins or jazz but he would like to get to know them.

TFP Wheeljack: Wheeljack doesn't know any of them very well since he doesn't spend that much time on earth but from what he's heard everyone is planning on beating the scrap out of Tfa Ultra Magnus and he's willing to provide weapons for it. Somehow he recognizes the feral mech hidden in Tfa prime and is determined to catch Optimus going feral on video. Wheeljack lightly teases Tfa bulkhead but quickly realizes (realises? I don't know how to spell it, I spell it both ways) how different Tfa Bulkhead and Tfp Bulkhead are when Tfa Bulkhead doesn't react the way he expected. Wheeljack also plans to Botnap Sentinel in order to get him away from Ultra Magnus (He thinks maybe spending some real time away from the Magnus will help with the attitude problem.) He hasn't heard enough about the others to form proper opinions on them.

New Bot on the Block

The arrival of a new Autobot on Earth was always an exciting event. The arrival of a new Autobot from another dimension went well past the realms of excitement. As soon as they were told, it was enough to make the kids’ eyes bulge out of their heads and their mouths hang open in disbelief. And for the whole ride to base, it was all they could talk about to their Autobot guardians.

Only Bumblebee and Arcee came to pick them up, Bulkhead being sentenced to doing more exercises to help his recovery. That meant Miko had no choice but to ride with Raf and Bumblebee.

Miko asked questions a mile a minute, a wide grin on her face as she could hardly sit still in the passenger seat. Jack, albeit more tame, couldn’t resist asking Arcee what she knew and Raf was the same. How much patience could a person really have when knowing they were getting a visitor from a different universe?

The answer was next to none.

With the base in view, the two bots only increased their speed per request. Once inside, the kids were let loose.

It did not take them long to find Blurr, who was watching Optimus decode things from afar. He was not at all prepared for the children that had been unleashed upon him, mainly Miko. Thankfully, he could adapt.

“What’s your dimension like? Can you get any taller, or are all bots back at your home the same height as you? What do you transform into? How many fights have you been in? Oh, how many ‘Cons have you scrapped?”

He was slightly intimidated by her enthusiasm, but he could answer all her questions just fine. Explaining his whole universe wouldn’t take long for him to do, but he doubted a child could keep up in one go. His height was normal, thank you very much. Enough on that topic. His alt-mode was essentially just a race car, yet he could tell she was hoping for something more destructive. Fights, there’d been a few, though he wouldn’t get into them since that would require going into the explanation he said he would not tell. Still, he wasn’t sure that she had processed any of what he said due to his speed.

“I assume by ‘scrapping ‘Cons’ you are referring to the amount I’ve put offline?” He thought back to his first encounter with the Autobots. They had killed the Decepticons that had been after him like it was second nature.

“Duh!”

He crossed his arms. “Well then, I don’t find it necessary to disclose that information.”

“Lame,” she huffed.

The truth was that Blurr had never killed. Every fight he’d ever gotten involved with as part of the Elites Guard had ended up with the other person in stasis cuffs. He had his saw, technically a weapon, but he had never used it lethally. He… didn’t know if he could bring himself to do it, if it ever came down to that choice. It was another stark contrast between him and his new companions. They were all battle-hardened and wouldn’t hesitate to strike the killing blow. They fought through a war. They were still fighting through a war. How would they treat him if they knew he’d only been forged after his own?

Probably like one of these human children, and that was ridiculous. He was part of the Elite Guard, Cybertron’s best military! He was no protoform.

“So… what’s your race car mode look like?” Jack asked. He figured it was what Raf wanted to know, given his fondness of racing.

Blurr found it was better to show instead of tell in this case. He flashed a smile before transforming, revving up his engine. He was positive he heard Ratchet grumble something about there “never being a moment’s peace” but he didn’t pay much mind to it.

“Whoa.” Raf could only stare in amazement. “I don’t think I’ve ever seen any kind of car like this!”

“Universal differences, perhaps!”

“How fast can you go?”

Speed was always something he had taken pride in. “Fast enough to never have been beaten in a single race, wheels or no wheels. There were multiple times back in my universe where my Bumblebee tried to beat me and as much as he tried to, he couldn’t keep up even when I wasn’t going at my full speed-”

Smokescreen cut in at that point. “Why not another race? You, Bee, and me. It’d be fun!”

It did sound like a little fun, he had to admit. Though, the last time he’d been in a race had been completely against his will… taking time to actually think about it did not produce positive feelings. Ratchet beat him to an answer, something he was secretly grateful for.

“Absolutely not!” he snapped. “Need I remind you that we are robots in disguise? We can’t afford to attract unwanted attention because of you three parading around!”

“I’m pretty sure the rookie tossed that rule out the window the second he chose a race car as his vehicle mode,” Bulkhead said icily, looking pointedly at Smokescreen. Blurr was sensing some tension and he was not going to ask about it. Not right now, at least.

Smokescreen immediately threw the blame onto Bumblebee. “Hey, he chose a sports car first.”

“Hey, don’t drag me into this!” Bumblebee threw his hands up, optics wide.

“C’mon,” Miko piped up. “Just one race, it’d be fun! It doesn’t even have to be in Jasper, it could be somewhere really far away where no one else is around.”

Blurr’s alloy crawled at the idea and he hated himself for it. Racing wasn’t scary, he was being silly.

“I am inclined to agree with Ratchet,” Optimus spoke and Blurr jumped, not even realizing the Prime had taken a break from his decoding. “I fear it is possible that without the cloaking of our base, Blurr’s signal could be vulnerable to Decepticons since we first found him under attack from Decepticon soldiers. Until that problem is fixed, he should remain here.”

It made sense. Tagging along with them anywhere could put them in danger and he couldn’t even imagine what he would do if anything were to happen to them. It wouldn’t just be the guilt, it would also be that they were his best bet on getting home.

For the time being, any notion of Blurr racing was crossed out. That was good since it would give him time to work out his newfound aversion to racing.

But in the meantime, he was more or less tasked with entertaining the kids. Arcee was on patrol, Ratchet was keeping to himself, Optimus was busying himself with his work, and Bulkhead, Smokescreen, and Bumblebee had somehow slipped past him. That left them unaccounted for.

He didn’t mind, it was just that he didn’t quite know how to deal with Earth children. He had to slow himself down so they could at least begin to understand what he was saying. Maybe one day they could work their way up to his normal speech habits.

Despite his limited understanding, he seemed to be doing an okay job so far. Miko had climbed up onto his pede, standing inside one wheel and commenting how she felt like a hamster on a wheel. He, of course, had no idea what a hamster was. That turned into Raf taking out his laptop and searching up pictures of the surprisingly small creature.

“I have to admit that I really did expect something bigger if it runs on a wheel and looking at it now, I don’t see how it could even make a wheel budge!”

Jack let out a slight chuckle. “Hamster wheels aren’t like car wheels. They’re a lot smaller. Here,” He paused for a moment to take the laptop and find a suitable picture. “See?” Looking at the picture, now he got it. Though the picture froze it, he could tell the fuzzy little animal was running in place inside a plastic wheel. There were other variations, some wheels made out of metal wires.

Miko grunted from where she stood, trying to replicate the picture. “Give me a hand here, I’ve almost got it!”

“I really doubt that’ll work seeing as I’m opting to keep it in place and even if I wasn’t, I don’t think you possess enough strength to accomplish that on me.” He gave her a gentle nudge out of the wheel, making sure she landed safely. He was sure the others wouldn’t appreciate him accidentally harming a human on his first day here.

“Well, maybe if I had some help.” She cast a glance over at Raf and Jack.

“I’m not so sure about that,” Jack said and carefully handed the laptop back to Raf.

“I remain doubtful that the three of you could.” Blurr spun his wheels quickly, the rest of his body keeping still before he brought it to an abrupt stop. “Don’t take it the wrong way but I can’t even begin to imagine that it’d be all too enjoyable for me to watch or in general for you to attempt.” Slow down. He had to talk slowly for the kids, he reminded himself. Even if he found it… annoying.

They hadn’t actually been listening to him though, more fixated on his wheels.

“How’d you do that without transforming?” Miko asked.

Could the Autobots here just… not do that? That was funny. Well, not necessarily funny, but he found it interesting. “Every Cybertronian in my universe is perfectly capable of doing it, unless of course they don’t possess any wheels and are instead a flier, but that’s besides my point and isn’t all that important! I assume Cybertronians here have transformation cogs as well since it’s necessary for transforming. Do I have that right?”

Raf was the first to respond, giving him a nod. “I guess in your universe, Autobots and Decepticons are just made differently than here. Maybe that has to do with mobility,” he suggested.

Okay, Blurr was starting to like this kid. Would it be wrong to pick favorites? “That’s certainly possible! Ratchet can already confirm that my energon isn’t like his or anyone else he’s encountered in this universe and he’s told me he wants to conduct more research later on so then we should be able to have an answer.”

“Maybe you can tell me about it!”

Miko’s expression could only be described as bewildered. “Hold up, are you telling me you get every word of that?” she asked Raf. Blurr tried not to frown since he thought he had been doing a good job of talking slower.

He smiled and adjusted his glasses. “Well, when you live in a house like mine, you tend to pick up on all kinds of ways people talk. Seriously, my family’s huge. If you wanna survive, then you’ve gotta learn.”

Oh, Blurr was definitely leaning towards a favorite child already.

Hours of more questions, chatter, and even a tour of the base, passed by until the kids were sent home. They had curfews and if they stayed out a minute too late, it would mean trouble. Apparently Jack’s mom knew about the secret of the Autobots, but the rest of their families were in the dark.

For robots in disguise, there seemed to be a handful of humans who knew about their existence. Secrecy had been no problem for the ragtag group of Autobots back in Detroit. They were all free to flaunt themselves with no consequences of being seen. Except Blurr of course, due to his mission (which he was doing an excellent job of remaining hidden until somebot messed it up).

“Blurr.”

The intelligence officer craned his neck up to Optimus. He was going to have to get used to that. “Yes?”

“Since you will be staying with us, you will need your own space.” He began walking and Blurr took it as a cue to follow. The pair walked down the hall, passing by all the collected relics. The kids had given him some insight on them. Then they made a turn, which Blurr remembered to be the rooms of everyone else, along with some more empty ones. “While you were speaking with the children, a room was prepared for you.”

Standing outside a previously unoccupied room was Bumblebee, Bulkhead and Smokescreen. He didn’t say it, but he was surprised that Bulkhead had actually worked together with Smokescreen on something.

“It was pretty much ready before we started,” Smokescreen said.

Bumblebee nodded. “Just a little dusty. And we didn’t know what you like, so it’s still a little empty. Sorry.”

“Since you can’t leave the base yet, we’ll get you whatever you want,” Bulkhead added.

Blurr took a step inside, his optics sweeping over the room so he could take in all the details. The berth was large, but when the time came for him to lay down to recharge, it’d be comically large. There was a desk with some storage departments that had more room than he would probably end up needing. A chair came with that desk, though he wasn’t sure he’d ever actually sit down in it. His mind worked better when he was moving around.

None of it was perfect. Nothing about this day had been perfect.

But surprisingly, he realized that he liked it. With some changes of his own, he could make this work.

“Thank you,” he said and snapped his attention back to the others. “I’m grateful and wish I could express that better, but at the moment I’m very exhausted.”

A few more words were exchanged before the four Autobots bade him goodnight and let him be. Once the door closed, he was left in complete silence. And once he turned off the light, he was left in silence and darkness. He hadn’t realized how much he needed a moment of peace until just now.

He just climbed onto the berth (his estimations of it becoming comically large, proving to be correct) and closed his optics.

Things had been mostly normal when he intercepted that signal between Megatron and his spy. His plan had taken a few dents once his cover was blown, but things had seemed to be going uphill once he joined up with the Optimus Prime and his Autobots. And then everything unraveled again when he got sent through that spacebridge and stranded in another universe, immediately welcomed by hostile Decepticons. And now he was with Autobots like the ones he’d become slightly familiar with back in Detroit, yet completely different.

He wasn’t sure if being dead would be worse. He couldn’t be bothered to think about it.

So, he let himself drift off into stasis.

—

“We’re gonna have to tell that loud human about all this, right?” Smokescreen asked.

“Fowler?”

“Yeah, him.”

That was a given. “Yes,” Optimus said. “Though, I believe that can wait until tomorrow when everyone is better rested.”

Bulkhead snorted. “That’ll be fun.”

Suffice to say, Fowler was going to be in for a long headache.

Hello again so how about old Predacon buddy accidentally gets teleported to the transformers animated universe how would the Autobots react (you can include the elite guard if you want) predacon buddy Will most likely just want to adopt all of optimus's team now I'm just imagining Predacon buddy Just having a cuddle pile with the transformers animated Autobots and that is absolutely adorable =]

Buddy is too old for this... time to travel again!

Hope you enjoy!

Bot Buddy the Old Predacon meeting Team Prime

SFW, Platonic, Cybertronain reader

TFP/TFA

Buddy is really starting to get tired of being launched from mystic portals.

They were going to start carrying the Apex armor to soften their landing if they needed to.

Buddy landed near some docks in the middle of the day.

This place terrified Buddy.

Everything was way too small here!

Buddy quickly looked around the area, still everything was way smaller than what they would have liked it to be.

Buddy looking around.

“Hmm… this is usually the part where I meet some human or bot—”--Buddy

“Wow!”

“There it is.”--Buddy

Buddy looks down to see a tiny human girl.

“You’re really big!”

“That I am little one.”--Buddy

Buddy tucks in their wings and tail more to avoid touching or potentially knocking over something.

The human girl looks at Buddy a bit intensely.

“Are you an Autobot or Decepticon?”

“An Autobot, specifically a Predacon.”--Buddy

“What’s a Predacon?”

“Not important right now. What is you name?”--Buddy

“I’m Sari.”--Sari

“Sari? Now that’s a name I haven’t heard before. I’m Buddy.”--Buddy

Sari raising her eyebrow.

“Buddy?”--Sari

Buddy venting a bit.

“I know, I know the name doesn’t fit with how I look. But I have been told it matches my personality well.”--Buddy

Sari moves closer to Buddy, while they just freeze.

“I’m not going to hurt you.”--Sari

“I know, it’s just that I don’t want to accidentally hurt you. I’m not exactly known for being very careful with many fragile things.”--Buddy

Sari pats Buddy’s claws.

“You would get along with my friend Bulkhead.”--Sari

Buddy perks up.

“Bulkhead? Oh, this is great!”--Buddy

“You know Bulkhead?”--Sari

“I know his alternative. He is a good friend of mine.”--Buddy

“Alternative?”--Sari

“I’m from another dimension. Don’t ask me how, truthfully, I don’t know either.”--Buddy

“That’s so cool!”--Sari

“Buddy bowing their helm to Sari’s level.

“Could you help me find Bulkhead? He might be able to help me get home.”--Buddy

Sari is already climbing on Buddy’s helm.

Buddy slowly lifts their helm.

“Keep walking straight, the Plant will show up soon on the left.”--Sari

Buddy begins walking down the docks heading through some of the back streets.

“I’m sure Bulkhead can help! He is a spacebridge technician.”--Sari

“I’m sorry he’s a what?”--Buddy

They arrived to a seemingly abandoned power Plant after a couple of minutes and stops on the way.

Buddy wasn’t sure they could get used to humans minding their own business.

Sure, there were the ones that stared at them and others making comments here and there.

But there was no mass hysteria or riots.

The only yelling Buddy had was when they nearly stepped on a trash bin that was placed too close to the road.

Sari told Buddy to wait outside while she brought out the Team. Not like Buddy could enter either way.

Everything was still a bit too small for their liking anyways.

Buddy nearly fainted on the spot when they saw how small the Autobots were.

“Sari, can you repeat what you just said? What do you mean ‘another dimension dragon bot needs Bulkhead’s help’?”--Prowl

“Yeah, Buddy needs help getting back home.”--Sari

Bumblebee skating backwards to the door.

“Please! I bet this dragon—”--Bumblebee

Bumblebee hits a solid wall.

He pats the back feeling a solid wall of metal.

A shadow looms over him as he slowly looks up.

He looks up to see a giant metal dragon’s face.

Bumblebee quickly runs back to his team who is just equally terrified at this giant.

Sari calmly walks over to Buddy.

“Buddy, this is the team.! Guys this is Buddy!”--Sari

“Sari… I think you failed to tell us how GIANORMOUS the dragon was!”--Bumblebee

“Why is everyone here so small!”--Buddy

“We aren’t small! Your just huge!”--Bulkhead

Buddy quickly shakes their helm.

“My apologies. Its…it’s been a tough day. Being in a whole new reality again.”--Buddy

“What do you mean again?”--Ratchet

“This happens a lot more than you think. But right now, I’m just trying to figure out a way home.”--Buddy

Optimus taking a step forward holding his servo out.

“We’ll help you in any way we can.”--Optimus

Buddy raises a digit and lightly shakes the Primes servo.

“Thank you Prime.”--Buddy

It took some getting used to with Buddy being around.

For one, Buddy couldn’t fit in the plant entirely.

Buddy did find out that if they stayed low to the ground, they could at least get most of their frame in without getting stuck in the doors.

Buddy became very protective of the team the longer they stayed.

Especially seeing the stark size difference between them and the Decepticons.

Buddy was sure they scared Starscream into the afterlife after sneezing.

Optimus found himself looking for Buddy sometimes when things were starting to get to him.

He didn’t want to admit them, but he felt comfortable enough around Buddy to talk.

Ratchet and Buddy did have their old bot talks from time to time.

Ratchet is convinced he is older than Buddy, for a short time.

Bumblebee and Sari constantly give Buddy mini spark attacks when they decide to do some sort of shenanigans.

The puppy eyes worked… for a bit.

Buddy and Bulkhead sometimes make art together.

Buddy is quick to shut down anyone’s mean comments about Bulkhead’s art.

Prowl and Buddy sometimes go out for walks in the park. Buddy took him flying one time.

One time.

Sari was close to using her key on him from the fright he had when he nearly fell off, which was his fault for trying to stand up while Buddy was still ascending at such a fast pace.

Ratchet had the car batteries ready in case Buddy was going to have a spark attack.

Optimus walking into the main room to see Buddy sleeping with their wings acting like a blanket.

“Prime!”--Prowl

Optimus looks around but sees no one.

“In here!”--Bulkhead

Optimus quietly goes by Buddy and lifts their wing the best he could.

All of his team is trapped by Buddy’s heavy limbs.

“What took you so long. Help a mech out!”--Bumblebee

“All right, all right just let me—Woah!”--Optimus

Buddy reaches out quickly and traps the small Prime in their grasp.

He struggles a bit but Buddy only slightly tightens their grip.

“Don’t even try, they’ll just tighten their grip.”—Ratchet

“How long have you guys been in here?”--Optimus

“In total… about an hour.”--Sari

“They nap for about three hours. Get comfy.”--Ratchet

Buddy was ready to throw servo with Sentinel after the rude comments he said to Prime.

Buddy standing straighter with wings opened and lightly draped over team prime.

“I highly recommend you stop this rude behavior Sentinel.”--Buddy

“That Sentinel Prime to you freak.”--Sentinel

Jazz and the Jettwins moving towards Buddy’s side.

“Sentinel I don’t think—”--Jazz

“Shut it Jazz! This is between me and the freak!”--Sentinel

Buddy readjusts their wings so they now also cover Jazz and the Jettwins.

“You have five seconds to apologize before I hunt you down.”--Buddy

“You can’t do that I’m a Prime.”--Sentinel

“5.”--Buddy

“You will respect your superior!”--Sentinel

“4. Not my world, not my Prime. 3”--Buddy

“Sentinel… I think you should run—”--Optimus

Sentinel already barricading himself in his office.

“That was fun! Never seen Sentinel run that fast.”--Jazz

“Let me know when he’s acting out again. I’ll set him straight, even show off some of my moves from back in the pits.”--Buddy

“Excuse me the what?!”--Ratchet

A week later a portal had shown up at the Plant’s entrance.

Buddy knew it was their time to go.

After some tight hugs and teary good-byes Buddy walked into the portal.

The base was quiet today.

Maybe everyone was out on patrol again.

“I’m back!”--Buddy

Miko looking from her spot on the couch.

“It happened again?”--Miko

Buddy settling down next to her.

“Yep.”--Buddy

“We should get a tracker on you the next time you leave.”--Miko

“Ehh, I’ll think about it kiddo.”--Buddy
