Okay okay this has been sitting in my brain for longer time and here's what it is😭
So i just got into reading the (lost light?) Transformers MTMTE and i can't with how the Cybertronians are so cold towards each other and everything is so awkward between them sometimes since yeah again, they have been through very long war and they just don't even walk around the concept of what parenting is (as far as i know) 😭
Just imagine their reaction towards older humans caring for their younger humans. My nieces came over for the weekend and ofc they're small so they have to be hand-fed, washed and helped with almost everything and what makes my heart melt is the way they always ask their mom: "Mommy can Nana feed us please?" It's just- AAAAA-
So just imagine Cybertronians like Brainstorm or Tailgate seeing baby humans being fed by their parents for the first time. Like they would be super confused-
Tailgate: "Why don't they consume their..erm..'food' by themeselves?"
Reader feeding their niece: "They're too small and young Tailgate they need to be hand-fed."
Tailgate: "..."
Tailgate: "But you do it by yourself."
Reader: "Cause i'm not 2 years old?" *chuckles*
Tailagte: "..oh.."
Tailgate: "And that means they have to be hand-fed? How long until they will be able to eat by themeselves? Were you ever hand-fed too??"
Reader's thoughts with the most tired look in their eyes: "Here we go again."
I love imagining how it would be and feel to teach Cybertronians real gentleness. Also they would be so confused aaaaah it's so adorable😭❤️

Ok so it is implied in my mind that any human on the lost light would be zippin around on roller skates. And when on roller skates you can theoretically hold onto the back of a vehicle to ZOOM ( = skitching = skate + hitching.) So THE QUESTION IS silly little headcanons for a human reader skitching w Rodimus / Tailgate / Swerve my beloved / anyone w a vehicular alt mode? Idk I just thought that would be fun :3
new uh, format I think. hopefully, this works. anyways this was really fun and they're a little short bc I struggled writing something different for each one, but I'm very happy with it
[ human!reader
post includes: Rodimus, Tailgate, and Swerve]
MTMTE Rodimus
oh you're gonna have to hang on real tight
when you said zoom, that's exactly what this guy is gonna do
tries to get you to do tricks as you're skitching, did not go well the first time (he skid to a stop you crashed face-first into him)
after that he was a lot more careful and gave you a heads up
He still tries to get you to do tricks though, you both impress the rest of the crew quite often
It quickly became this favorite thing to do after the first time, constantly coming up to you and transforming with a "need a ride?" and happily agreeing when you're the one to ask him.
Probably gets a little jealous when you ask someone that isn't him
Expect a lot of close calls but he would never get you hurt on purpose, Ultra Magnus begs you to wear some kind of protective gear
MTMTE Tailgate
Originally hesitant when you asked him, are you sure you want to go with him? What if you get hurt, he'll never forgive himself??
After plenty of reassurance though, he agreed and found it quite fun
Laughing and giggling as you two travel along the halls together, very cute 10/10
Cue Cyclonus watching you two with intrigue, zooming away with wide smiles on your faces, he too tries to hide a small smile at the scene
something tells me he drives in little circles to be silly
If you get hurt somehow he starts panicking and accidentally transforms back to pick you up and ask if you're okay. The only problem is that he forgets you were still attached and you go shooting up into the air
very normal and civilized skitching buddy but will zoom through the LL if you ask him to
MTMTE Swerve
He desperately wishes you could deliver drinks with him around his bar while skitching, how cool would it be if you two just drove around and handed bots their drinks one after the other?
So excited though, also has a lot of fun as you join him and cruise with him around the ship
He for sure convinces you to be silly around the ship, messing with Magnus or other bots and just as quickly leaving the room unnoticed
I think he also accidentally transforms while you're still holding onto him. You're like, screaming as you hold onto him for dear life and he keeps turning around in circles trying to find you (you swinging around and begging for him to stop moving)
Despite all the silly shenanigans, he still obviously goes out of his way to make sure you're safe and comfortable.
Probably tells you about the latest drama or stories as you're cruising around to keep you entertained, also because Swerve tells you everything

      MTMTE x gn reader
    『 rodimus ,, minimus ,, swerve ,, rewind ,, chromedome ,, trailcutter ,, brainstorm ,, first aid ,, whirl ,, tailgate ,, skids ,, gender neutral reader 』
  -> coparenting on widgetable
  — fluff ,, sfw ,, crack
  — since ive started coparenting on widgetable i decided to do hcs of mtmte characters n coparenting on there :3
    - rodimus
| • roddy saw it on tiktok when he was supposed to be working ,, and instead of finishing it his work he spammed you about it until you replied
| • who names it -> roddy
| • he names the kid chicken nugget because it seemed funny
| • roddy would have his status set as 'saving the world'
| • he'd be a good parent the first few days ,, but after about a week or two he forgets so you have to spam him care reminders
| • he probably buys the premium
| • roddy also probably spams your notes when you have chicken nugget over ,, and begs you to return him
| • he would draw little hearts on your guys' doodle widget when hes bored
    - magnus / minimus
| • you had the app and somehow convinced minimus to download it and coown a pet with you
| • you hatched a cat ,, and minimus let you name it ,, which was probably a bad decision
| • because you named him dr . bigglesworth
| • he regrets it to this day
| • mins usually has biggles most the time ,, and never forgets to feed or bathe him
| • hes respectful with his notes and gives him to you when you ask
| • though if he sees you're neglecting dr bigglesworth ,, he'll send you one care reminder
| • he has his status set to 'hardworking'
| • mins wont write little messages on your note widget unless you do it first ,, same with doodling
| • though sometimes when he gets super stressed from work he may doodle dr . bigglesworth on your doodle widget
    - swerve
| • he found the app and was super excited to coparent with you
| • he wanted to name the egg ,, and so he did
| • and thats how jerry got his name ,, and jerry was a penguin
| • he would also always remember to take care of jerry ,, maybe even spoil him a little too much
| • whenever swerve was bored at his bar ,, he would talk to jerry and feed him
| • swerve would constantly send a miss you note whenever you had jerry ,, it was honestly crazy
| • he would have his status as 'hold a hand' always
| • swerve probably would argue with you over notes on how you're neglecting jerry ,, when you literally just got him back smh
| • though all in all ,, swerve takes his coparenting to the extreme ,, he takes it serious and as a way to prepare for any future outcomes
    - rewind
| • he found the app and asked if you wanted to coparent ,, which you didnt mind ,, rewind was already coparenting another pet with chromedome
| • for some reason ,, rewind always has his status set to 'toilet' and when you asked him why ,, all he said was that it was funny to look at
| • anyways ,, you hatch a frog !! and rewind named it dinkle without talking to you first about it
| • so now you have dinkle ,, who rewind sometimes forgets about ,, which makes you spam him care reminders until he takes care of him
| • he always argues with you over your notes ,, telling you that youre caring for him wrong
| • and when rewind's bored ,, he draws pps on the doodle widget and sends you questionable notes on the note widget
| • all in all ,, hes a 4/10 parent to coparent with
    - chromedome
| • he found out you were coparenting with rewind and asked if you wanted to do so with him !
| • he let you name the egg ,, which you named 'moonie' ,, chromedome found it a little strange but cute

| • honestly hes a better parent than rewind is ,, always sharing moonie with you ,, giving you moonie when you ask
| • he spoils moonie with space rocket baths all the time
| • chromedome does love to draw you both on the doodle widget as best as he can ,, which is stick figures of you two
| • he sends you good morning and good night notes on the note widget
| • and his status is usually set to 'send a heart'
| • 11/10 parent to coparent with
    - trailcutter
| • he only did it because you wanted to ,, even though deep down he wanted to be the one to ask
| • he hatches the egg and lets you name it 'big mac'
| • teebs questions why but never gets an answer ,, and so big mac hatched to be a panda
| • he also falls in love with the pet ,, always taking care of big mac
| • though he usually sends you big mac when he knows hes about to start drinking so he doesnt end up neglecting him
| • when hes drunk off of engex ,, he usually draws you crying faces and broken hearts on your doodle widget
| • and thats pretty much your sign to send big mac back to him
| • teebs grows pretty attached to big mac ,, and always feels sad when he sends him to you :( always asking that you feed and bathe him
| • teebs usually has his status set to 'kiss' but when he gets drunk he changes it to 'lonely' or 'miss you'
| • hes a 8/10 parent
    - brainstorm
| • youre the one to introduce it to him and hes over the moon about it ,, he loves the concept and is super excited about coparenting with you
| • you let him name the hatched egg ,, which happens to be a duck
| • brainstorm calls him 'featherington' for sheer silliness ,, but really he just loves featherington
| • he spends money for the premium version so he can spoil his little duckie
| • he always fights you on the notes too ,, telling you to take extra care of featherington whilst hes working and if you dont hes gonna unleash the tickle monster
| • and you dont really have the time for the tickle monster ,, so you do your best to care for featherington
| • brainstorm usually has his status set as 'need you' ,, the little animated kitty cat that only premium lets you have
| • he sends you good night notes on the note widget ,, and sometimes reminders of things you need to do that day
| • when hes done with work and bored ,, he draws featherington on the doodle widget
    - first aid
| • he probably found it whilst he was taking a break from working ,, and saw it as an ad and wanted to do it with you
| • he insists on naming the pet springy ,, totally not in relevance to springer ,, he doesnt know what youre talking about
| • you hatched a cat though ! first aid tries his hardest to take care of springy but he usually ends up neglecting him or using all his items and waits for the cool downs
| • he has his status set as 'kiss you' or 'working'
| • he'll doodle little stars in his free time though ,, which is rarely
| • first aid is another who puts little reminders on your notes widget in case you have something to do that day
| • he also spams you care reminders and gets worried when you dont take care of springy and demands him back
    - whirl
| • youre the one to introduce him to the app and he at first doesnt agree to coparent but then he starts to overthink it and agrees in the end

Rodimus, Drift, Tailgate, Skids with a sleepy S/O!
Tumblr media
Containing; Rodimus, Drift, Tailgate, and skids!
___ is gender neutral and can be looked at as either human or Cybertronian
Warning; slight cursing.
Tumblr media
Rodimus;
He honestly doesn't mind if your mostly sleepy. He kinda enjoys just sleeping around you at times as well. He honestly empathizes and sometimes wish to be as sleepy as you. (He wouldn't really. He is too energetic)
He does encourage you to have decent sleep schedule though! He wishes the best for you and doesn't want you to constantly be drained. He needs another goofball like him to hang around yk?
The biggest benefit he has is his amazing sleep that he gets. Since your mostly sleepy all the time, you would definitely get the most comfortable bed on the whole galaxy.
At times he will just lay down with you and just rant about things that have been bothering him that day. (Ultra Magnus) He also Enjoys hearing about your day as well!
Drift;
He honestly understands where you come from. He honestly wants to sleep all the time as well but knows better. He can't even begin to imagine how awful you feel when waking up in the morning.
Drift recommends that you wake up around the same ish time as him so you two can do whatever when Drift is done doing his dutys after the day. But he doesn't necessarily force you either.
I feel like he would enjoy just meditateing with you on him in some way. He would encourage you to meditate as well at night if you have hard time sleeping at night after waking up in the evening.
Tailgate;
Would 100 percent be down with it. I feel like he gets overwhelmed a lot so just going towards your room and just laying there helps him calm down for a while. He enjoys whenever you comfort him until both of you go to sleep or the other.
His only complaint is how much you really don't come out your dark room much. Sure he likes staying in there, but when it comes to outside, he needs someone to help him come out his little turtle shell.
Whenever you do come out of your room though, it's a miracle. He always has a arm or hand on you, clung onto you like a koala. He loves whenever you talk to him outside because he can finally socialize with other people since he feels most comfortable around you.
Skids;
He fucking hates it. Omg does he hate it. This hyper man baby is bouncing off the walls at any moment. He honestly questions how he asked you out since you seem to sleep all the time or just a lot.
Definitely touch starved so expect for him to be glued to you at all times whenever he isn't roaming the Lost light. So he is 50/50 when it comes to how sleepy you are.
Drags you through the Lost Light making you meet his new friends that he has met. He does love your effort to make him happy through and appreciates it even if he doesn't actually say it.

if its ok, id like to request something for Rewind, Tailgate, Swerve, and Rung please: Their reactions to being lifted up in a big bear hug by their affectionate cybertronian friend? thank you!
Of course, I hope I got their characters write and this is to your liking!! I'm also gonna be so fucking for real with y'all, I don't know any of theses characters personalities. Anyways, Enjoy :)
Pairings: Rewind x Reader, Tailgate x Reader, Swerve x Reader, Rung x Reader
Warnings: None,
Rewind 
You hadn’t seen Rewind in quite some time. With both you being busy, either you off on some mission, or Rewind being too busy either looking for his friend or working in the archive. You finally had some downtime, so you thought why not spend it with him. You went looking for him, well you didn’t really have to go looking for him, you knew where he was. The Archive, it was the only spot you could find him, if he was alone, so off you went. The clanking of your plating and the sound of your footsteps rang in your audials. The long hallway to the archive was empty, besides the lights, the strangely cold breeze and you. You still walked the hallway, servos grabbing at your arms in an attempt to ground yourself. The archive door is getting closer and closer. You stepped into the archive, it smelt like dust, space dust, there's dust in space, since when? You laughed to yourself, your processor wondering like nothing as you walked through the entrance of the room. Your optics scanning the room, no one, no one in sight. 
“Rewind?” 
You called out, no response. You walked further into the archive. Looking down aisles, no one, not even a shadow. 
“Rewind?” 
You called again, but this time, there was a response. 
“(Y/N)? Over here.” 
You followed the voice to a corner of the archive. Rewind stood with a red dot on his helm, waving at you. You smiled brightly when you saw him, running towards him and instantly picking him up in a big bear hug. A tight tight bear hug, lifting the bot up off the ground, his own arms wrapped around you in an instant to stabilize himself. 
“Ohh, How i’ve missed youuu!” 
You spun in a circle before shaking him back and forth. 
“It’s not like you couldn't come see me!” 
You noticed he sounded outta breathing, so you put him down. Servos resting on his shoulder plating, his own servos resting on the joints connecting your arms and servos. He laughed, before saying something about missing you as well. He now has an archived version of your bear hug, that he’ll cherish for the rest of eternity. 
Tailgate 
You spent a good bit of your time with Tailgate, He was one of your closest friends. You had been sent out to do some random work. So it had been a long time since you last saw him, and it was weighting on you. You missed your friend dearly, so when you got the transmission from a note about you coming back to the ship, you were far too excited. 
“Welcome back!” 
There was a group of bots waiting for your group's arrival. Everyone broke off into their groups, but stood still, waiting, watching. Optics scanning the group of bots, looking for a small blue and white bot, but you had given up, closing your optics and sighing as you picked up your little bag. 
“Hey, (Y/N)!” 
You opened your optics. The small blue and white bot was standing in front of you. You smiled, dropping your bag and running to pick up the bot in a tight hug. 
“Tailgatee! I thought you weren’t going to be here.”
“How could I not! You’ve been gone for a vorn.” 
You shook the bot in your arms, his little legs dangling out from underneath him, he laughed, a nice healthy laugh. 
“You’re always like this when you come back.” 
“Because I’ve missed youuu! 
“Well you're back now!” 
He said, you placed him back down and let go of him. Picking up your bag and starting to walk. 
“Soo, whatcha been up too?” 
You wanted to hear all about his stories and adventures while you were gone a year is a long time to be away from your friends. So smiled down at him and he started to speak, talking about his time with a new friend he made and some other things. He spoke about being down, and a few other sad things, so maybe your bear hug was what he needed, something to drag him back to being happy. 
Swerve 
Swerve’s bar, your favorite spot to be after extremely long and tiring missions. You’d either come with friends or by yourself, but going by yourself is probably the best. Simply because you enjoyed your time with the bartender, Swerve himself. He was nice and also the only friend who you talked to when not on a mission, his simple no ask questions or let you talk about whatever you had on your mind. So when you blinked and looked up at the bright red neon sign that read “Swerve’s” you didn’t hesitate to enter. There were only a few other bots inside, and you passed one of them who was leaving. 
“Hey, Welcome! Take a seat, what can I get you?” 
Swerve has his back towards you, doing some, you took a seat at the bar, servos gripping the edge of it. 
“Give me whatever you feel like.” 
“(Y/N)!” 
Swerve turns out to the sound of your voice, a bright smile on his face and a glint in his visor. You smiled back.
“Hey, friend!” 
You said, he moved back to the bar, leaning into it with his servos planted firmly on the counter. 
“Haven see you in a long time!” 
You cut him off, pushing up from your grip on the bar and lunging yourself towards him, wrapping your arms around him. You pulled him into the tightest hug you could manage, you gave tight squeezes every now and then. HIs own servos come up to your arms, as he laughs. 
“Primus, I missed this palace.” 
You said finally letting go of the bot, Swerve went to make you the drink he always does when you show up. 
“Glad to hear it! Well nothing changed, just the same ol Swerve’s.” 
You smiled, picking your glass up and taking a sip. You engaged in your usual conversation with Swerve. He seemed happier now that you were here, maybe your hug was what he needed. 
Rung 
Rung was always off doing primus knows what, lost in his way of thinking and out in space. So when you heard he may be back on the ship, you wanted to go find him. You couldn't leave what you were doing, helping Ratchet with some gadget he was working on, your servo holding two parts away from each while he had his servos deep in the gadget putting things together. He could feel you getting antsy. You kept shifting your weight from foot to foot, the sound of your plating clanking together as you moved. 
“Why are you so restless today?”
You didn’t answer, just released a deep sigh. Pulling the pieces that were in your servos fuller apart, giving Ratchet more room, and then you zoned out. Time must have passed fast, because before you knew it, Ratchet had finished what he was doing, and was talking about being done for the day, he was now sitting at his desk. 
“(Y/N), how about you go do whatever is making you restless, and next time try not to be so antsy.” 
You couldn’t see his face, but with all your years helping Ratchet, he was rolling his eyes. You simply smiled, wiping your hands, and taking off your equipment. 
“Yeah, Yeah, Same time tomorrow?” 
You wanted to know, you still cared about whatever Ratchet was doing with this gadget, even though you had other things on your processor. 
“Yes, same time tomorrow.” 
“Great! I’ll see you tomorrow Ratchet.”
You didn’t give him the to respond, opening the door to the room you were in and bolting down the hallway. You didn’t know where he could be, so you’d start simple, where the ship was docked. You made your way there, a few bots saying ‘Hello’ and you simply nod and smile. You followed the signs that pointed down hallways and into doors, until you finally made it to the loading dock. 
“(Y/N)!” 
You turned to see one of the loading dock bots. 
“Hey!” 
“What are you doing here?” 
You looked around one more time before your optics landed the bot
“I’m looking for Rung, Have you seen him?” 
“Oh yeah, He said something about getting back to work right away, maybe you can find him in his office!” 
The bot said, a smile underneath his visor. You simply nodded before saying some goodbyes and running off to find Rung. 
You were three steps away from the office, the door opened and you could hear the sound of tapping from what you assume is a data pad. You peaked into the room, optics scanning from left to right to right to left. You could see Rung facing away from the door, the data pad in his servos and looking down at it.  You creeped in behind him, your arms slowly moving out as you got closer, until you were within grabbing distance. You quickly wrapped your arms around him and brought him towards your chassis, shaking and lifting the small bot up. His feet were not on the ground anymore, he left out a yelp. 
“Rungggg!!!!!” 
You left out, You had him in a tight bear hug, a tight bear hug. 
“(Y/N)! Woah!” 
You finally stopped shaking him and placed him down, but you didn’t let go of him, you placed your chin on top of his helm and smiled. 
“I’m glad you're back! It was so boring without you.” 
You felt him chuckle, he placed the data pad in his servos down and placed a servo on your arms. 
“Well, I’ll be here for a while so you won’t be bored anymore.” 
You laughed, a smile on your face, you were just glad he was back.

Swerve, Tailgate, and G1 Arcee x Scene GN Human reader
Learning about Halloween
(Seperate)
[A/n: okay i'll admit it. This is completely self-indulgent Lmao!]
Warnings: none
Context for Tailgate and Swerve's parts: The Lost Light stops by Earth for supplies and to get you a life time supply of food, clothes, and other stuffs you'll need.
I LOVE THEM SO MUCH AAAAAAAAAAAA-
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
🕷Swerve🦴
You both were on a drive in a neighborhood which was near where the Lost Light was, nothing was really happening so you were both enjoying the fall scenery. You both drove towards a nearby mall in comfortable silence until Swerve spotted some Halloween decorations outside the walls.
"Sweetspark? What are those unsettling lawn ornaments for?"
"Oh, those are just Halloween decorations."
"Whats that?"
"Well... Halloween started off as a tradition during harvest season where people would carve pumpkins to scare off demons, but later on it somehow evolved into dressing up and getting free candy during the night cycles.. Its also a way to celebrate fear."
"....THATS SO COOL!! Are you gonna dress up? Can I dress up with you? How scary is it? What are you gonna dress up as? Whats your favorite candy? How scary is it?"
You chuckled as your conjunx rambled on with all of his questions and opinions, happily listening to and answering everything he had to say or ask.
After you both arrived at the mall, He activated his holo-form, and you two went inside. Ypu both visited all of your favorite stores and gathered clothes, snacks, and other things to keep you entertained.
Near the end of it, you both stopped by your favorite place to get food. It was then when Swerve said something that made your heart melt.
"I'm so glad to have you as my conjunx, ya know that? You're so different and learning about you just blows my mind. I love ya, Sweetspark."
"I love you too Swerve.. i think thats the sweetest think anyone has ever said to me, not gonna lie."
After you finished eating, the two of you rode back to the Lost Light. Swerve put you in some pajamas and set you down on the little nest of blankets and pillows on his bar. He sat down, resting his arms on the bar and just stared at you as you did your own thing.
".....Swerve, you alright, bud? You're staring at me."
"I'm alright, I just like watchin ya. I love ya, sweetspark."
"Lova ya too, big boy."
You give him a kiss before you lay down and stare at the skylight and watch the stars with Swerve.
Tumblr media
👻Tailgate🎃
You stepped into the passenger side of Tailgate's tiny alt mode with your Invader Zim backpack and started putting on your rubber spike ball earrings. Despite how small he is, Tailgate's alt mode is surprisingly comfortable.
"Where are we going, honey? We got your clothes yesterday."
"Oh its nothing much. I just wanna introduce you to a tradition of ours." You reply as you make a few touch-ups on your eyeliner and hair, making sure its out of your face with a Gir hair clip.
"...What do you mean 'its nothing much', that sounds fun!!"
"Aight lets go then!"
You give him directions to a nearby pumpkin patch and park nearby. You put on the baby sling as Tailgate activated his holo-form. You pick him up and put him in.
"Hey Tail? If you're over 6 million years old, why'd ya chose a baby as your holo-form?"
"I didn't.. i think it was completely randomized."
"...that explains the bad outfits the others have."
You walked around with Tailgate on your chest as you looked at all the booths containing treats, face painters, and other stores. Tailgate's gaze was all over the place, taking in his surroundings as people looked back at him with cute agression. He then spoke up when you sat down in the middle of an entire area of pumpkins.
"So whats the tradition?"
"Well, every harvest season we pick out a pumpkin, hollow it out, carve a scary face into it, then light a candle in it at night."
"Thats kinda weird.. but fun!"
"Yeah! It stared like 200 years ago when people did this to 'scare off demons' and stuff like that. But now we just do it for fun."
"Nice... hey can humans eat... 'pumpkins'?"
"Yep! In fact, theres lots of pumpkin flavored things, some of them are just flat out gross though." You chuckled to yourself.
Tailgate picked out the largest one he could find and you picked out a nice, medium, round one, along with a few mini pumpkins.
After that, you and Tailgate got your faces painted and you ate some lunch as he sat on the picnic table. You two also went on a hayride around the corn maze, it was at this time you decided to tell him more about harvest season activities.
"Pumpkin carving isn't the only thing we get to do this month either."
"Mind elaborating?"
"All of this builds up the the very last night of the month. The holliday we call, Halloween. Ya basically dress up and go for a walk where you get free candy. It can be scary though."
"Are you gonna dress up?"
"Yeah! And i have a halloween costume for you too if ya wanna join."
Tailgate's expression lit up at those words.
"Really?! What is it? Is it a turbofox? A pumpkin?"
"A worm on a string!"
Tailgate's visage went from excited to confused.
"Whats that?"
You show him a picture on your phone and he starts giggling and flapping his arms.
Your time at the pumpkin patch ends when you start yawning and Tailgate insists on going back to the ship so you can rest. You place Tailgate's holo-form back into the car and put the pumpkins in the back. You tell him the rest of the basics about halloween, like the history, why we need to keep black cats inside, other interpretations of it, etcetera.
Tailgate then carries you and the pumpkins into your shared room on the Lost Light. You grab the tools and newspapers, and the two of you start carving while disney halloween classics play on the tv.
Tailgate's costume (except blue) credit goes to Ashleigh McGuire on tiktok

🕸Arcee🦇
Its Halloween, and Arcee finally got a Holo-form. You figured inviting her over for the holiday would be a great way to celebrate, not to mention so you can give her the stuffed plushie you made for her. You put on your Gir costume while waiting for her to show up. You put on the costume's hoodie as you hear the doorbell ring. You grab the candy bowl just in case its kids at the door.
You open the door and see a lady with short white curly hair, pillowy red lips, and striking blue eyes. Shes wearing a pink sweater, red grandma glasses, and the cutest pink skirt you've ever seen.
"Hello, wait- Arcee is that you?"
"Hello, dear, how are you?"
Her voice is as sweet and melodic as you remember. You set aside the candy bowl and hug her with excitement as you kiss her on the cheeks.
"Arcee!!! Oh odds i missed you, you look amazing!"
"Aww, you flatter me, sweetspark."
Just then you notice a group of kiddos in costumes, you grab the candy bowl as they all say the well known line almost everyone says on Halloween night. You hand out two pieces of candy for each kiddo as you compliment their costumes, and with a 'thank you', they move on.
Arcee seemed a bit confused at this.
"What was that?"
"Its part of a tradition that's happening tonight, I'll explain when you come inside, its awfully cold out here."
You two sit down on the couch and hand Arcee her gift. She thanks you then scoots closer to you so she can hear better.... and because she wants snuggles.
"So, what just happened is a little tradition called Trick or Treat-ing. Basically kids dress up as monsters or whatever else and walk around at night gathering candy."
"Oh! Thats fun, mind if i ask why though?"
"Its a long story. It started out like 200 years ago when people started carving pumpkins and dressing up to scare demons and other evil creatures off. It soon enough evolved into this. In my opinion though, Halloween isn't just about candy and costumes, i like to think its a way to celebrate our fear."
"....wow.. thats really interesting, and fun! Can we do that?"
"Yep! I actually have a few costumes for you to pick from if you'd like."
"Yes please!"
She jumped off the couch and started peppering your face with kisses before you lead her to your room and bring out the costumes.
You leave her be so she can get changed, you pass the time by getting the rest of your makeup and costume on. You finish just as Arcee trots out of your room wearing an adorable Sandworm costume.
"How do I look, Sweetspark?"
"Amazing..."
You approach her and take her hands in yours, they're soft.
"You're so beautiful, you know that?"
"I can say the same for you as well, my spark."
She kisses you before you grab some glowsticks and other essential things you'll need.
"What's the glowy things for?"
"So we don't get hit by a car, and so we can spot eachother."
You explained as you put a pink glow bracelet on her arm, and a green one on yours. You put the candy bowl on the front porch with a note telling the kiddos to only take two. And with that, you head out with Arcee.
You two trick or treat for a while until you decided you have enough candy (yall got a lot btw). You stop by your house and drop off the candy before wandering off into the night for more things to do.
You go into a haunted house then join in on a Halloween party, since Arcee can't technically eat human food, you packed her some Energon which she enjoyed while the two of you vibed at the party.
Two hours later, you arrive home with an empty candy bowl on the front porch, but more treats you've gained from the party, along with two worms on a string matching you and Arcee. One green one, and one pink.
You lock the front door behind you before Arcee all of a sudden picks you up and carries you to your bedroom. She gently sets you down on the bed and snuggles up beside you.
"Its been a fun night, hasn't it?"
She nods in agreement as you yawn.
"Maybe we should recharge?"
"Definitely."
You wrap your arms around her as she does the same to you.
"Goodnight, Arcee, I love you."
"I love you too, Darling."
The two of you drift into unconsciousness rather quickly due to how eventful tonight was. Even if one or both of you have a nightmare from that haunted house, you have eachother.

requests are back open 😩😩 since i sent mine in when i didnt know they were closed 🙏💔 hcs of rodimus, drift, and tailgate w/ gn human who shows them just dance 👀 just some silly fluffy stuff <3
Ayyy thanks for sending it in again!! I'm super stoked to do this omg
You didn’t specify a game, so I went with the 3rd as that’s,,, the only one I know
Rodimus, Drift, and Tailgate being showed Just Dance
Under the cut :)
Rodimus
This dude can not boogie but boogie he will
He is the killer of many Wii remotes and the creator of many holes in walls (he refuses to wear the wrist strap)
He’s super into the fast paced and bouncy songs, unfortunately he’s only actually good at like three
He demands rematches each and every time, it might become annoying if the face he made while focusing on staying on beat to Party Rock Anthem wasn’t so endearing
Absolutely finds a way to turn Just Dance into date night (”loser has to give the winner a kiss” and then he loses on purpose only to demand a rematch)
Somehow manages to set up the console somewhere that has an even bigger screen than the one in your habsuite, insisting that the screen is too small and that’s the reason he keeps losing
Despite not being very good at the game, he genuinely enjoys spending time with you like this. You seem so carefree playing a game from your home, and he’s just,,, happy he gets to do this with you
Drift
Drift has absolutely played it before during his time on Earth and probably already knows most of the songs
He’s insanely flexible and can get away with doing pretty much any of the dance moves
Like Rodimus, he prefers the faster songs, but he’s not adverse to rock or something similar! He’s also a big fan of some of the older songs in the game
More than once you’ve caught him humming one of the songs from the game
Fun aside, he likes that it’s technically a form of exercise. He’s able to spend time with you and get some cardio in (do robots do cardio?????), and if you’re not somebody who enjoys physical activity a whole lot then he considers it a double win when he gets you to play
It’s all fun and games until it’s your third time playing ‘Boogie Wonderland’ and he’s landing perfect after perfect even though you’ve been playing for the past hour and a half
Tailgate
Old guy who has absolutely no clue what’s going on but is just happy to be included
Asks so many questions about the different songs and artists and has a comment or two for each one
His arm movements leave a lot to be desired, but he’s surprisingly light on his feet! He’s got good balance and he uses it to his advantage
May or may not play on his own to practice so he can get better and maybe finally win a game
Loses his mind at ‘crazy little thing called love’, he adores it
Honestly he’s just a big fan of the love songs and the ones that have something to celebrate. And the duets!! He loves doing duets; he’s missed out on so much so having something he can do with you is special to him

Tailgate Movie Night
Tumblr media
Johnny 'Soap' MacTavish x Fem Reader
Synopsis: You and Soap take advantage of a warm summer's night to hit the drive-in. Yet halfway through the film, your attention gets pulled to a more tranquil scene before you.
Warnings: None. Fluffs galore.
Tumblr media
You couldn’t have asked for a better night if you begged for it. The warm summer air cooled with a gentle breeze that came in the moment the sun descended below the distant horizon. A crystal clear night. The dark, black expanse of the sky blanketed in countless stars, so many you were unable to discern the distinct formation of your favorite constellations within them.
And popcorn. So. much. Popcorn.
As you made your way through the vast jungle of parked cars, you let your mind wander and take in the sights and sounds around you.
The endless parade of movie goers lining up at the concession stand.
A series of high-pitched screams of children scurrying around the grass laden parking lot.
And the delicious aroma of salted butter filling your sinuses as you made your way back to your parking spot. Needing both hands to cradle the massive paper bag of popcorn your lover always insisted on during movie nights.
And you obliged, as always. Movie theater popcorn was, after all, his guilty pleasure. And you were certainly not going to deny Soap MacTavish of his most prized culinary obsession.
Tumblr media
As you continued to meander through the last line of parked cars, your eyes finally caught sight of Soap’s other most prized obsession; his 4Runner.
Your lips involuntarily curled into a smile as you watched him make the last-minute touches to the back of the compartment. Transforming a typical cargo hold into a full-blown comforting sanctuary.
Built in air mattress. Pillows set up against the backseat and sides of the trunk. And a plethora of blankest set out at your disposal. In other words, perfect.
“Lookin’ good, Johnny,” you called out with a grin permanently etched onto your lips.
“Aye. Jus’ need one more thing,” Soap replied, reaching over the backseat to grab the cooler and a six pack of Irn Bru.
“You splurgin’ tonight. Aren’t ya, love?”
“I earned it, lass. Got the botched crest to prove it,” he answered with a head tilt and a smirk.
The chunk of hair missing from his distinctive mohawk more visible in the dim light and the peach fuzz of new hair growth just beginning to cover the scar left by the grazed bullet.
“It’s an interesting look, Soap. Got a bit of a, I don’t know, Stegosaurus vibe to it.”
“Shut it, lass.”
“Why don’t you just shave it?”
Soap fell silent. Immediately shooting you a playfully repulsed glare and grabbing at the immense bag of popcorn from your hands.
“Away n’ biel yer heid.”
“Yeah. Fuck you too, babe.” You smiled brightly back at him, climbing into the back to take your place snuggled up next to him.
Tumblr media
Not even thirty minutes into the movie, you reached over into the giant bag of popcorn nestled between you and found it to be nearly completely empty. Cupping a few straggling upopped kernels into your hand, you glanced over and took in the blissful sight before you.
Soap MacTavish. Your Johnny. Fast asleep against the pillow next to you.
In normal circumstances, you would jab into his side and rile him up to keep him awake. But now, with how peaceful he looked, you wouldn’t dare stir him from his whimsical slumber.
Instead, you turned your attention from the film on the oversized outdoor screen to the tranquil scene of calmness beside you. Lightly tracing your fingers along the top of his scalp as you laid on your side, ever so slowly running your fingers through the remnants of his mohawk as he breathed steadily within the grip of deep sleep.
Soap always had trouble sleeping at night. Whether it be from the nightmarish memories of his previous deployments, or new found fears he had only just begun to conjure up within his mind, sleep always seemed to perpetually dance around taunt him, no matter how hard he tried to give in.
But here, in the back of his 4Runner and amongst a crowd of movie goers and intricate white noise, he could find peace. And you’d be damned if you did anything to take that away from him.
You felt a slight tinge of embarrassment at how easily you fell in love with watching him sleep. And guilty, a sense that somehow you were almost stealing these precious moments of rest from him. Taking advantage of his unconscious vulnerability for your own selfish need to witness and cache these serene moments for yourself.
And you did.
Tumblr media
As the dim light of the drive-in danced across his dreamlike expression, you shifted all focus and attention from the film to bask in the tranquility that was him.
Laying your head on his chest to lose yourself in the rhythmic cadence of his heart. A gentle smile curling into your lips as you felt the groggy movement of his arm behind you, pulling you in closer with a sleepy groan.
The world slowly began to melt away as you both enjoyed the closeness of one another. Low, rumbling vibrations of the films soundtrack rolling through the hull of the vehicle, eliciting a muffled giggle as your mind recalled a more robust vibration Soap preferred in the back of his 4Runner.
"What's s'funny, hen?" Soap managed through a drowsy whisper. Tilting his chin down to tenderly kiss the top of your forehead.
"Nothin'. Just enjoying the moment, love."
"Mhmm. Yer a terrible liar, lass."
Your smile widened, looking up to meet the cerulean fire of his eyes draped behind heavy lids. His signature mischievous grin telling all you needed to know about his full intentions for the night.
And you were more than happy to put on a show for him. Appreciating his decision to park in the back as you both created your own soundtrack for the night.
4Runner Wingman Masterlist

Human Buddy having hiccups and Tailgate hearing it for the first time
SFW, platonic, Human reader
MTMTE
It honestly surprised Buddy that they didn’t get hiccups for the longest time while on board the Lost Light. Almost assumed they would be gone since they were up in space so often. But it turns out it just had been a long time since Buddy had to chug something down fast in a long time.
They were dared by Whirl, of course, to drink 2 of their water bottles as fast as they could.
“C’mon Fleshy! You can do it faster! Chug! Chug! Chug!”--Whirl
Tailgate wanted to watch while he waited for Cyclonus to come back with their drinks. When Buddy finishes Whirl pretends to be mad and goes to look for another water bottle for them to chug.
Then it happens.
The hiccups.
Oh, Buddy forgot how much of a pain in the posterior they were.
Tailgate thinks they just squeaked. Buddy is trying to explain that that’s not what is happening but keeps getting interrupted by their hiccups.
hiccup!
“Oh wow! What was that! That sounded so cute! Do all humans make that noise?!”--Tailgate
Tailgate thinks it’s plain cute until he is seeing how frustrated Buddy is getting and how fast some of the squeaks are getting.
His mind immediately goes to the worst. What if Buddy was warning him that they were in trouble and all he was doing was laughing?!
“Hold on Buddy! I’ll save you! To the medbay!”--Tailgate
Is on the verge of a panic attack when he scoops Buddy up in his arms and sprints towards the medbay. Cyclonus to nearly drops the drinks and run under Whirls legs as he is getting a create of water bottles and juices to the table.
“Tailgate?”--Cyclonus
“Where is Panic Button and Fleshy going?”--Whirl
Buddy is trying to calm Tailgate down, but it is getting a little hard to breathe when you are heading somewhere fast on a fast hoverboard. Tailgate now hears wheezing and starts panicking more.
Nearly tears the hinges off the medbay asking someone to fix Buddy.
“Help! Buddy’s dying!”--Tailgate
Ratchet turns to a rather frazzled looking Buddy and asks what happened. Buddy who is woozy from the entire trip only manages to hiccup before going limp in Tailgates servos. Tailgates little spark can’t take it and faints on the spot.
Ratchet has to quickly get Buddy out of Tailgates servos before any damage is done. Cyclonus and Whirl turn up and are just wondering what is happening.
“Hey Docbot, any idea what’s going on with Tailgate and Buddy?” -- Whirl
“A lot of things on top of misunderstandings.”--Ratchet
“Are they both okay?”--Cyclonus
“Yes, they both are perfectly fine.”--Ratchet
“… Hey fleshy, what is chug again?”--Whirl
Ratchet just wants a break.
It’s going to be a pain to explain when both wake up.

MTMTE headcanons
Some of the headcanons I have for when I write stuff for the characters. So enjoy the silly little things I think about while writing these guys
Warnings: some have nsfw content in them
Words count: 3K
The Scientist 
- Perceptor and Brainstorm regularly have intense debates over various sci-fi shows and movies while working. 
- Rewind is secretly a formidable DJ and often Swerve has him doing music playlist for the bar. 
- Brainstorm insists on demonstrating his latest inventions at weekly crew meetings. Most of his devices are useless or end up causing minor disasters, to the annoyance of Ultra Magnus, it has resulted in multiple new rules being made . 
- Rewind is making a documentary about life on the Lost Light. Nobody realised until he released the "behind the scenes" cut that has Magnus and Megatron both drivking energon, “I hate this crew so much” Magnus huffs, “would you rather starscream?”.
- Rewind has amassed a huge secret stash of rare historical films, songs, and books that he pirates from other planets if its stuff he himself hasn't recorded. He'll only share them if you trade rare datafiles with him. 
- Brainstorm's experiments have caused more than one shipwide malfunction or strange phenomenon. Which resulted in having to contain the humans on board after realising it affected their skin in a way that the scent made The bots extremely horny. 
Cyclonus and Tailgate 
- Cyclonus is generally stoic but has a secret sweet tooth. He can often be found sneaking snacks when he thinks no one is looking. 
- Cyclonus has accumulated a giant collection of tiny earth souvenirs for tailgate but will never admit where they come from. 
- Cyclonus indulges Tailgate's interests just to spend time with him, 
-Cyclonus has taken to meditating in the engine room with drift to get away from the daily chaos. UnfortunatelyWhirl joins them every time to "help him find his inner peace" which mostly involves strange noises and objects flying by.
-Tailgate has become convinced the Lost Light is haunted after a prank goes wrong. Now he drags Cyclonus along on nightly "ghost hunts" which mostly consist of jumping at shadows. 
- Tailgate gets very excited about trying new types of energon goodies and treats he finds on other planets. Cyclonus has to gently remind him to pace himself so he doesn't get a tank ache. 
- Thanks to his small size, Tailgate can easily squeeze into small spaces to repair things or retrieve lost items. Unfortunately he sometimes gets stuck and needs help wiggling back out which has led to some rather spicy times for himself and Cyclonus. Occasionally Whirl. 
- Tailgate is an awful shot with firearms but tries to practise constantly. The other bots have to avoid being in the line of fire during his "target practice sessions."
- Tailgate tries so hard to act tough that he sometimes comes across more adorable than intimidating. The other bots try not to laugh...most of the time.
- Tailgate has become obsessed with human paranormal investigation shows. He tries to convince everyone to do a seance in the lower cargo decks and engine room, he forgot the sparkeater was down there. 
- Tailgate loves watching old earth movies with the human crew. Rewind is always happy to supply new films from his extensive archives or record them from the humans Movie, Usb and harddrive stashes. 
Ratchet & Drift
-Drift and Ratchet have started a betting pool on how long it will take for Rodimus and Magnus to get in a screaming match this time. Ratchet always wins, Drift enjoys it. 
-Drift is somehow the richest bot on the Lost Light from his days as Deadlock, he doesn't use his shanix on himself and only spends it on people he cares for. 
- Drift meditates regularly and has tried to introduce the crew to Earth wellness practices like yoga, much to their bafflement. He enjoys practising with the human members of the ship.
- Drift meditates for hours in the cargo bay and tries to spread his philosophy of peace. It doesn't always work on this crew of hassling madmen but he does try.
- Drift meditates frequently to find his inner calm. It's one of the only things that allows him to tolerate Rodimus' antics for so long without having a breakdown over the speedster endangering himself.
-asides from Rung *cough Primus cough* Drift is one the oldest member of the crew who wasn't statused, but no one can tell due to how well he looks after himself now, but Ratchet knows how bad he used to look. 
- Ratchet has a comm channel blocked nearly every night to "discuss medical matters” it's his line to bitch talk with Rung. 
- Ratchet has a secret ship called the "USS Nail-Him-To-The-Berth", which is a small shuttle solely used to stealthily transport Drift to remote planets for romantic getaways. Drift jokingly added captain's stripes to his arms without telling him, drift was in fact the one who brought him said ship as a job gift.
- Ratchet having a secret collection of badly written medical holodramas he'll never admit to enjoying. Claims it's just for "research." But many nights you can find him, Drift and Rodimus curled up together watching them.
 
- Ratchet grumbles about why he signed up to be a doctor for a ship full of unruly idiots but deep down he cares about them all. Even Whirl...sometimes.
- Ratchet has banned Brainstorm from the medical bay after one too many experiment explosions. Now he has to do checkups in the hallway.
Megaton 
- Whenever he's frustrated, Megatron mutters to himself in ancient Cybetronian. Unfortunately, a lot of the curses and insults have been lost to time so they just sound silly now to some of the younger bots, it nearly makes Rung freeze up hearing the old text.
-Megatron has stowed away in one of the escape pods when things get too much. He leaves a note saying he needed a break, and he tries to make himself as small as he can inside the pod. 
- Megatron has started joining Swerve at the bar after shift and they've developed a genuine friendship, though Megatron still pretends he finds Swerve annoying. 
- Megatron has developed a secret hobby of arranging tiny furniture and scenes inside empty energon cubes. He claims it helps him relax. Eventually some of the humans ask him to help with arranging their own furniture 
- Megatron has a secret hobby where he writes romance novels under a pen name. He's actually quite the romantic,  quite a few bots have read his work but he rather keep it under a pen name these days after the works he used to publish. 
- Megatron has taken to leaving sticky notes reminding Rodimus of the task he has to do. It doesn't always work but it has gotten Rodimus to remember a few things. 
- Megatron writes "broadly, deeply philosophical" in his captain's log, then spends an hour ranting about the merits of proper temporal coordinates and in the end both he and Ultra Magnus tend to both have rants over how bad Rodimus’ spelling is. 
-megatron always gets roped into babysitting whatever wild creatures Whirl and Rodimus find/rescue that week. On many occasions the humans have been left in his care against his pleads. 
- Megatron has started a small garden on one of the observation decks and finds the meticulous care of plants to be a calming hobby, it had become the food score for many of the humans on board and they are rather grateful to him for the hobby. 
- During movie nights, Megatron always ends up with either (Rodimus or insert) falling asleep on his lap. 
Skids
- Skids is clueless about his own strength and accidentally breaks things all the time like datapads or fuel cubes. He apologises profusely each time.
- skids gets way too invested in holodramas and movies, and yells at characters' bad decisions. The others gently tease him for it.
- skids tried exotic new fuel mixes in the hab suite's energon dispenser that usually end up glitching it. Swerve has to come and fix it. 
- His favourite Earth movie is The Fast and the Furious because he loves seeing high-speed races, but he can never remember the characters' names. 
- He once tried to make cybertronian energon goodies for humans and ended up nearly giving one of them food poisoning, Ratchet had to inform him humans can't consume energon.
- Skids volunteers to test out new gadgets from Brainstorm but often ends up as an unwilling test subject when things go wrong. He's developed a strange immunity to most sedatives at this point.
 
- Skids loves catching up on gossip and can always be counted on to have the latest gossip. He just may not always get all the details right…
Ultra Magnus/ Minimus Ambus 
- Magnus takes Rodimus' jokes and antics way too seriously and has trouble understanding sarcasm or joking around sometimes.
- He has an extensive collection of data pads cataloguing Cybertronian laws and regulations. He reads them for fun in his spare time. 
- Magnus gets distracted while trying to scold Rodimus because he's also trying to find the words to express how disappointed he is. 
- Whenever the Lost Light encounters something unknown, Magnus volunteers to write the official first contact report in excruciating detail, complete with footnotes and bibliography, most times he also needs the input from others to help with making decent impressions. 
- Despite his stern demeanour, Magnus has been known to crack a dad joke or two when he thinks no one is listening, it starts happening more often when Megatron and he are working together. 
- In a desperate attempt to loosen up, Magnus once joined Tailgate and Cyclonus for a night of drinking. He got absolutely overcharged and started doing karaoke. It is now part of Rewind's collection of Rare footage. 
- Deep down, he's a softy for romantic holodramas. 
- Somehow Minimus Ambus accumulates a massive collection of tiny human souvenirs like shot glasses and snow globes that he treasures. He meticulously dusts each one weekly. 
- In recharging moments, Ultra Magnus mutters equations and legal codes. His docking clamp also twitches in alignment with Enforcer protocols it's another rare thing that only (Megatron/ Human insert) know about. 
- Ultra Magnus has memorised and could recite the entire Great Charter of the Functionalists as it was something he did study mainly for knowledge. 
- Ultra Magnus has hidden photos of Rodimus doing ridiculous dances and lip sync battles with humans when he thinks no one is watching Proud Dad™️. 
Rung
- Rungs office is soundproof but sometimes Megatron or Rodimus can still hear him having meltdowns after appointments with certain patients. 
- Rung has a very rare high grade collection, some of the cubes are older than bots on the ship. 
- Old war stories give Rung flashbacks, and most times he has to walk away so he doesn't try and correct people on events he was present for. 
- Deep down Rung is a bit of a gearhead and loves helping Brainstorm in the lab, but don't tell anyone - it's his little secret joy.
-To help decompress after long therapy sessions, Rung knits tiny sweaters for all the human's onboard the Lost Light. Even made oen for Miminus, as other botss find out they start asking for small requested pieces from him. 
- The other bots have a gambling pool going on about how long it will take Rung to get fed up with Rodimus' antics and throw something at him. So far no one has won. 
- Rung had an impossible time getting anyone to show up for their therapy sessions until Megatron joined, now he seems to have a Very steady flow of patients, many with Ptsd. 
- Rung has redecorated his room with alien silk cushions and incense burning meditations pods. Crew members often visit just to relax and vent about ship problems.
-Rung never truly stopped being primus. It's just after so many millions of years, he's tired and he'd rather if people could just forget. His biggest fear is that one day he might turn out just like Unicron. 
Whirl
-Whirl is always stealing Rodimus' energon drinks and mixing them with high grade. Rodimus gets plastered and wakes up in weird places without remembering how he got there. 
- Whirl loves to sneak up on Tailgate and startle him for laughs. Cyclonus threatens Whirl with dismemberment if he doesn't knock it off. 
- Whirl starts an underground gambling pool for betting on who will be the next couple to get together. Nautica and Velocity are currently the frontrunners followed closely by (insert and Bot of choice).
- He snuck into Megatron's quarters on the Lost Light and messed with all his decor, moving furniture around and putting self-portraits of himself on the walls. To this day no one knows if Megatron has noticed and why nothing was said if he had.
- Whirl hacked the shipwide intercom to play love songs on repeat for a week straight. He claimed it was for "motivational purposes" but many bots suspected he was just bored.
- No one can prove it was him, but after one of Tailgate's game nights someone released glitter bombs all over the ship that took days to fully clean up. Suspicion fell on Whirl, it was in fact Tailgate who had gotten Whirl to make it for him. 
-Whirl accidentally joining every single one of Tailgate's hobby clubs and getting waaay to into each one, to the little bot's surprise. No one knows how to tell him he's in the sewing circle by mistake. 
- Whirl hits on everything that moves, despite constant rejections. He took getting thrown in the brig by security as a good sign once. 
- Whirl talks a big game and seems chaotic, but he is actually the most mature when it comes to looking after children. When one of the humans on board had a baby he became rather protective of them and their child. It also transfers over with sparklings (if/when) they are on the ship, he and Megatron are dubbed the babysitters. 
Swerve
- Constantly redecorating the bar to try out new lighting/theme ideas. One day it's a tiki bar, next it's a speakeasy. 
- Always bugging the other bots to join in games and activities at the bar. Usually ends up being the only one participating in crafts or dance contests. 
- Clumsy and easily startled. Accidentally breaks something in the bar at least once a week through spills or failed dance moves. 
- he Makes crazy custom drinks with wild synthetic engex concoctions. Often leads to strange/funny reactions in customers. 
- Endless list of nicknames for all the other crews. Brainstorm is "Sciencebot", Rodimus is "Hotshot", etc. Loves giving codenames. 
- Secretly a shipper and enjoys gossiping about who he thinks is into who. Always trying to play matchmaker between crewmates with whirl. 
- His favourite game to play at the bar is "Who Would You Rather?" and he always chooses the wildest, most inappropriate options to get a rise out of people, he loves hassling the humans over their strange biology. 
- Swerve is secretly hoping Megatron will one day ask him to be his personal assistant. He has the whole job role planned out because Megatron would make the best security guard. Swerve's bar fights would become such a problem that Megatron would consider said roll. 
- Swerve is convinced he's going to open the best bar/restaurant in the galaxy someday. He experiments with new fuel and engex recipes in the ship's improvised kitchen to the dismay of Ultra Magnus. 
- Swerve's bar gets rowdier each week as new engex flavours are tested. Merchandise bets and wild stories are the norm. 
- Swerve refuses to let Megatron stay in his bar without paying his tab in full first. But over time he starts handing off drinks to the old war lord.
Rodimus 
- Rodimus is constantly coming up with ridiculous dares to try and get Magnus to lighten up. So far he's had one of his human companions shot whipped cream at the enforcer before they bolted". 
- Rodimus is banned from the ship's engines after the sparkeater incident, mainly for his own safety. 
- Rodimus gets distracted easily during conversations and often trails off its Megatron who's the one who realises it and gets him a large figure toy so he can keep occupied while in meetings. 
- He doodles elaborate designs for new finish styles and ship paint jobs during important briefings and lectures, much to Ultra Magnus' chagrin. Megatron tells Magnus to ignore it because it's one of the only ways Rodimus seems to take in what is being said to him. 
- His habsuite is constantly a mess of strewn tools, parts, paint and upgrades. Drift tries to tidy it and just gives up. 
- Has started using ridiculous Earth slang he doesn't fully understand like "groovy" and "far out" just to get laughs. Drives Ultra Magnus nuts, the humans find it rather amusing watching him use it in the wrong terms. 
- Secretly loves 80s hair metal music but would never admit it. But he loves listening to it in his habsuite while working on things, he loves human music alot. 
- He tries desperately to be the cool, laid back leader but is constantly stressed and awkward. Inside he's a nervous wreck, worried that no matter what he does he's living in Optimus' shadow as a prime. 
- Rodimus stays up late watching Earth romcom movies and serial melodramas to get leadership tips, but mostly just ends up confused, he loves cuddling with (insert) as they explain the plot for him to make it slightly easier for him to understand. 
- He compulsively taps his pedes when anxious and doesn't realise he's doing it. Megatron is the one who normally send him away knowing that the more tapping the less Rodimus is listening when he's in this state. 
- His favourite Earth beverage is monster energy drinks, which the humans find rather amusing. (Energy Fluid au, he takes one mouthful and nearly spits it back out. “WHY ARE YOU ALL DRINKING TRANSFLUID!?!?” it leads to a lot of discoveries with *human insert*) He hassles them a lot with the promise of their favourite drink, no this dirty pervert instead just fills cups with transfluid and tells them that he has his own secret stash of monsters. As it gets around alot more bots start to get rather interested in how the humans had a drink that was pretty much the flavour of their transfluid.

Mtmte headcanons for Rodimus, Drift, Tailgate(+ Cyclonus maybe?), Brainstorm with a gn reader? Like there’s going to be a party or ball or something. And they’re doing reader’s make up, hyping them up, among other things.
Feel free to add more bots or get rid of some of them, I know how hard writing can be sometimes soo :)
yayyy such a fun prompt. also...back to writing thank you for your patience anon. I had to exclude Brainstorm because I couldn't come up with anything for him, but he'd be so enthusiastic about helping you get ready for a ball :'(
[human!reader post includes: MTMTE rodimus, drift, and tailgate+cyclonus
None of these are going to be super super canon so bear with me. The Lost Light had made a stop at an organic-safe planet to pick up some supplies for you and explore around a little. However, everyone had to use their holo-forms as the planet was not very welcoming to cybertronians. You just so happen to read a poster of an upcoming party tonight and ask your robabe to help you get ready
MTMTE RODIMUS
Once you tell him about the event, he agrees to help you get ready and even asks if he could join you. I would be lying if I said he thought twice about it, he didn't.
The party is some kind of carnival taking place in the area you landed in, judging by the poster announcing it, it would be quite flashy and colorful. You go for some quick shopping at the local stores and Rodimus hands you anything you'll look good in (you get handed every article of clothing he likes, nothing matches btw)
you wanna try out outfits? He'll support every single one but gives his honest opinion when you ask for it, helping you decide on the final outfit
He helps you do your makeup and although you're the one doing most of the work, he's trying his best. So gentle while applying any makeup, he does not want to stab your eye or scratch you. Tends to get a little impatient but the results were so worth it, if you decide to go with colors that match his paint job he'll have a literal twinkle in his eye and a stupid grin on his face.
"How's that?" He backs away to stand beside you and admire his work. "Primus, you look really stunning."
HE IS YOUR BIGGEST FAN!!
Hyping you up the whole time. on his hands and knees. "Y/N your makeup looks amazing, that color looks so good on you, you're gonna kill it out there" He 100% suggests to roll down a red carpet for your entrance btw
MTMTE DRIFT
youre going to a ball and once you explain what that is, drift is thrilled to help you out
idk man..i feel like he'd be good at providing advice on what looks good together and what you should wear
he WANTS to help you do your hair, makeup, etc. he asked before you could finish your sentence
Another one that would adore any type of matching color scheme,. If there's some type of theme for the ball/party he's gonna help you and somehow nail that theme, like, perfectly
Smooths out your clothes, gently adjusts your hair, then gives you a little kiss because wow you're glowing (is that the right word?)
Definitely the type to take you there with linked arms
MTMTE TAILGATE+CYCLONUS
Tailgate wants to go, Cyclonus is automatically going btw. Tailgate wants matching outfits
Tailgate helps you with your hair, Cyclonus with your makeup, and they both help out with your outfit and any accessories.
Tailgate is absolutely gushing over you once you're ready, literally leaping up In the air and twirling!!
Cyclonus using that poetic rizz to call you beautiful, pretty, handsome, a wondrous depiction of existence at its zenith-
yeah you go with matching outfits. At the ball you manage to dance with the both of them, cyc more graceful and tailgate a little clumsy but you all got the hang of it. You all have fun
some extra bit, i think the idea of a ball/party would intrigue the two of them. Cyclonus would greatly admire the elegant part of it while Tailgate would absolutely come up with a bunch of themes and parties they could have on the lost light. Its def an excuse to help you get ready again btw, Cyc is totally discreetly in on it

      MINIBOTS(+minimus) x gn reader
    『 tailgate ,, swerve ,, rewind ,, minimus ambus ,, gender neutral reader 』
  -> part one
  — fluff ,, sfw ,, crack ,, many kisses :3
  — part one of this little series :3 rung will be in the next part ! feel free to reblog or give any comments / feedback ! <3 i enjoy reading them and seeing my work spread !
          pedes clanged against the metal floor of the lost light interior . a certain green bot making his way through the labyrinth of the ship with a datapad in his servo . maybe he didnt triple check it enough ,, but something about the report he got from rodimus just irked him . maybe he was too stressed ,, too frustrated with something . and so he left to head for a certain someone .
          he knows it would be rude to imprude your sleep ,, as its quiet essential to humans . yet he couldnt feign the empty feeling in his spark from missing you . it was all that occupied his processor through the day ,, even if he did see you as magnus . it wasn't enough though ,, realizing how needy he sounded ,, but you did say it was alright to pop in any time he wanted to no matter what . so maybe it was somewhat acceptable .
          he stopped in front of your door ,, punching in the simple code and slipping in the dimly lit room when the door slid open . the first thing he could hear was hushed giggles coming from a corner of your room . it didnt take him long to find the source ,, walking over and seeing the minibots of the lost light all huddled around you with blankets wrapped horribly around them . in tailgate's lap you laid ,, hands on either side of swerve's cheeks as you pressed kisses to his facial plates . minimus shouldve known you wouldnt be sleeping by now . it was foolish of him to think so ,, when he knew deep down these three would keep you up all night with no shame or remorse .
          " i want more too !" tailgate whined ,, visor dimming as you return your attention to swerve's derma . " in a moment tailgate ,, you already had some and swerve hasnt yet ." you replied ,, giving the minibot one last smooch and turning back to tailgate . " youre so needy tonight ,, whats up with that ? did something happen today ?" you frowned ,, moving to place a hand on the side of his face . " you could say that . i mean ,, whirl did land me in medbay earlier ." he pouted ,, yet his visor brightened with you kissed his faceplate .
          rewind and swerve sat on either side of tailgate ,, blankets in their laps and wrapped around their shoulders as best as you could get them to be . it always surprised you how these mechs slept . it reminded you of prison in a way ,, sleeping on a slab with nothing for comfort . not even a single pillow . it was honestly no wonder most these bots were rude and cranky . you would be too if you had to sleep that way ,, thankfully you didn't though .
          green armor caught your eye ,, stopping you midway of pressing a kiss to tailgate's cheek and looking up . minimus stood there ,, arms crossed and a data pad in one servo . " what is the meaning of this ?" he asked ,, squinting his optics at the minibots huddled around you . " um ,, nothing ?" swerve gulped . rewind shrugged before tailgate replied ,," getting kisses . do you want to join in ?" minimus faltered a second . whilst it sounded nice ,, they were disturbing your internal clock and messing with your sleep schedule .
          " no . youre all disturbing (y/n) . shoo off and let them sleep ." he grumbled ,, keeping his stance . swerve's awkward smile dropped to a pout ,, all three minibots looking at you . with a sigh ,, you crawled off tailgate's lap and towards minimus . " its alright mins ,, theyre not doing any harm ." you hands wrapped around his digit ,, smile sweetly beaming up at him . " why dont you join us ? and then we can all go to sleep ?" you offered ,, waiting patiently for him to give in . he always does anyways ,, because this isnt the first time it happened .
          the bot sighed ,, arms dropping to his side as he slowly started to nod . " alright ,, alright ." he gave in ,, reaching down a bit to pick you up and hold you in his arms . " only for a bit ,, and then youre going straight to bed ." he huffed as he walked over to the rest of the minibots ,, settling down beside rewind and turning his head to the side bashfully when you kiss his derma .

A Vessel, A Stranger, An Experiment
A/N: This took half a week to write, and is significantly longer. Also, the reader character's canon name is Ailith, but I use Y/N since this is the reader character. She behaves like a stray cat. I mostly consulted tvtropes because the wikis aren't exactly helpful with getting a nail on the bots' personalities. Also, the translator is an idea I took from @tripleglitchwriting's Ignition fics,
This is a partial rewrite of An Unfamiliar Place.
Part 2 can be read here!
Word Count: 3K
Reader character is written with gender-neutral pronouns. POV changes and timeskips are designated with three stars.
Warnings: SFW, mentions of blood and injuries, communication problems, G/T (giant/tiny), mentions of unethical experiments
You knew about your injuries before going on the little ship you called home. It’ll be fine, you remember assuring your most recent client after you got your payment, I know how to mend myself.
Clearly, based on the spike that impaled your torso, you were indeed not. Your client didn’t need to know, you had the money to pay someone to fix you up if you can’t do it yourself. Perks of being a bodyguard for hire; the money makes up for any injuries sustained. At least the cloak hid that from the client; you knew they’d prevent you from leaving the planet if they saw.
You removed your mask and cloak, peeling your gloves off your hands as well as removing your grappling hook, and limped toward the mirror. Shit, you thought to yourself, the injuries are more severe than what you assumed. The spike in your torso was the one you knew about, but there were also bullet holes in your left calf. You checked your sleeves, mostly just small scratches and scrapes. Nothing you couldn’t fix.
Grabbing the medical kit, you went to work. Cleaning the wounds of blood and possible grime, then applying the bandages and wraps. The spike would have to be removed by someone more professional, you need to navigate to the nearest space clinic. Plopping onto the chair, you set the ship to go to the nearest clinic. However, as a precaution, you turned on the emergency signal in case a larger ship with someone more skilled in medicine could help. Hopefully the trip will be quick, and smooth-sailing.
Oh, how much of a fool you were. Oh-so foolish of you. You thought this was going to be anything but a disaster? You fool, you absolute buffoon.
There was a massive ship, you knew it was for something gigantic. How and why did you end up in this situation?! You weren’t sure what to do, so you kept the ship where it was. The ship you were facing was ten miles wide at least, and you might be its target.
Something grabbed the ship. It pulled you closer and closer to the gigantic vessel, until you knew you were inside it. Launching yourself off the chair as fast as you could, you hurriedly fastened your magnetic grappling hook on your right arm and grabbed the smallest weapons you had. No time to grab anything else, you needed to run as soon as you could. You held the handle of one of your smaller blades between your teeth.
Clearly, what was holding you was massive, footsteps jostling both you and your vessel, but eventually the ship you were in was put down somewhere. Once everything went silent, you cautiously opened the front hatch.
The vessel you were in was truly massive. Whatever crew is inside this thing must be members of species ten times larger than you at least. No time to dawdle, though. You needed a place to hide, and with haste.
Using your grappling hook, you descended down to the floor. It gave out midway, however, and you unceremoniously fell. Waves of intense pain overwhelmed you, fortunately the knife in your mouth prevented you from shouting out in pain. You’d check what happened later, though. You needed to find a hiding spot some distance away from your ship.
Holding onto your bloodied side, you scurried to a wall and started searching. Fortunately for you, there were some boxes that were open on its side after a few minutes of sprinting. You used your grappling hook to get to them, and entered one of the boxes. Now all you needed to do was wait. See if the crew is friendly, or if they’re going to kill you. Or if you end up dying from blood loss, which is the most likely option.
✩✩✩
It was Ultra Magnus out of anyone who noticed the object at first, and the blood trails coming outside of it. It’s an organic, and an injured one at that, he thought. Using his comm link, he informed all upon the Lost Light of the injured “intruder.” As they were minibots, Tailgate and Rewind were delegated the responsibility of investigating the interior of said object; see what it was for and if anything about what was inside could be discovered. Fortress Maximus chose himself not to look for the organic, for his size made it difficult for him to detect the source of the blood trails. That, and he didn’t want to squash them, so he checked all the cameras in the ship. Ratchet and First Aid were to prepare a berth, as the blood implied potentially life-threatening injuries. Brainstorm and Perceptor were to prepare some restraints and trapping items, in case said organic was being difficult. Now, to figure out who to find the organic…
Much to his dismay, however, Rodimus declared to find the organic himself. “I’m the captain of this ship,” he argued, “I’m going to search for them!”
Magnus pinched his enstril, a deep sigh coming from his intake. Rodimus has always been stubborn, refusing to heed anyone’s advice and acting without plans. Which, given the potential gravity of this current situation, could be disastrous. “I’d suggest not running off by yourself, Captain. At least bring one other Autobot, two pairs of optics are better than one.”
He could feel Rodimus roll his optics.
“I’ll go with the Captain.” Drift sighed. “I know you don’t trust me, but I’ll do the best that I can.”
Magnus grumbled, “Fine. You go with the Captain. I’ll remain by the object the organic came out of. Based on the size, they shouldn’t be too far off. Follow the red trail, and once you get them, bring them to the medbay.”
✩✩✩
POV: Tailgate and Rewind
When Tailgate and Rewind entered the ship, it was relatively empty, yet had signs of life. The blood on the floor made Tailgate panic a bit, but he carried on with reassurance from Rewind.
There were a few items of note, mostly the mask and cloak on the floor. The mask was birdlike in appearance; midnight blue in color with signs of wear. Mostly scratches. The cloak was a similar shade of blue, and rather bulky. There was a cut on the back of it, with blood around where the cut was.
Tailgate turned on his communicator. “Oh, this is bad.”
“What is it, Tailgate?” Magnus questioned.
“There’s an item on the floor, there’s a deep cut on it and… and I think the organic’s injuries might be way more severe than we think!”
“Ten four. I’ll inform Ratchet and First Aid of this.”
Rewind noticed a container, opening it up to see several weapons. Most of said weapons were blades. “We’re not dealing with just any organic,” he muttered, “this is one that knows how to fight. They could be armed as well.”
Rewind opened his comm link to Rodimus.
Tailgate investigated thoroughly, there could be a bomb on the ship. Every container he opened lacked bombs, however. Replacement parts, some stuff written in an unfamiliar language, and… diagrams?
Tailgate looked at the diagrams more closely. Based on the shape, the form was of a human. There were peculiar additions on the chassis, left bitarlueus, and right side of the midsection. Likely something Perceptor and Brainstorm could figure out.
“I found what looks like a recording device! It seems rather old, but I think it might work.” Rewind’s words broke Tailgate out of his trance, “We should activate our translator modules so we can figure out what it’s saying. Once everyone’s translators are online, I’ll play the recording.”
Once everyone confirmed that their translators were online, Rewind pressed the play button on the device. The words that came out were steel cold.
“If you’re listening to this, you’re on my ship. You’re a sneaky one, ain’t cha? I’ve been given many names; The Masked Merc, The Bodyguard Who Shot That One Guy’s Eye Out, and many other names. You’ll be getting my real identity from my cold, dead corpse. If you’re expectin’ me to cooperate with you if I’m alive, you better be polite about that. I’m willing to throw hands if you try to force anything out of me. I might be a mercenary, but I’m not one to throw hands just for the sake of it.”
The recorded message on the old device ended. The two bots looked at each other, and back at the device.
“Wait, there’s another button next to it.” Rewind pressed the button, and another recording played. The voice this time was much softer, and younger. Likely their first recording.
“Hello. I am Y/N. I’m not sure what I really am in this world, this is my first time experiencing many things. Heh, the consequences of living your first decade of life in a lab, I guess. I doubt I can find my ‘real family’ at this rate, if they even miss me at all. I’m a bodyguard for hire. Rarely need to use my weapons, guess some people find me too scary. Goodbye for now. If you see me, you see me. If you don’t, you don’t.”
Silence.
“So the organic’s a bodyguard. Y/N, huh? Must be a pacifist, from the sounds of it.” Tailgate pondered.
“Or is powerful enough that most don’t even try to challenge them since it means swift deactivation.” Perceptor rebutted through the comm link.
“WE FOUND ‘EM!”
✩✩✩
POV: Rodimus, Drift, and Reader
Once the two reached Ultra Magnus, Tailgate, and Rewind, Drift began checking the blood. “There’s a splatter on the floor here,” he mentioned, “must’ve had a nasty fall before they started finding somewhere to hide.”
Rodimus winced trying to imagine the pain. Why couldn’t the organic stay put until they got help? Weren’t they the one sending out the emergency signal?
“Let’s go find that organic!” Rodimus started walking while looking down at the blood trails, Drift swiftly following.
The two walked slowly, optics scanning for where the blood led towards and listening to their comm links. They heard Tailgate and Rewind’s notes about the organic’s possible injuries, the weapons, and the recordings.
Rodimus noticed a slightly open crate, where the blood trail ended. A squeak from inside was all he needed to justify putting a servos on the crate’s side, and opening it up.
“WE FOUND ‘EM!”
Well, you got caught. Took what you believe is half an hour, but better than dying. You weren’t going to hop onto them instantly though, they might try to kill you. More likely than not, they might not be super cautious. Especially the orange one, they seem like they’ll accidentally manhandle you and make your injuries significantly worse.
Wait, how can you understand them? Are they using a common tongue? You have some handle on certain languages from your years as a mercenary, but you weren’t sure how they knew any of the languages you knew. Nobody mentioned giant sentient robots when talking to you. Actually, they probably did it in whispers since most people are scared of you. Dammit.
The white one tilted their head, “You’re clutching your midsection with your servo. Are you hurt there?”
Well, shit.
You slowly removed your hand from where you were covering your injury. The spike got pushed when you fell, and is currently jutting out from your stomach. Fortunately, or unfortunately, it didn’t end up on the side of the subspace pocket the scientists installed on you, so you can hide that for a little while longer. Your hand, however, was covered in blood.
The orange one held out their hand, or what they called a servo. You did not trust him to handle you gently, and walked further into the crate. They grumbled, something about you being difficult.
“Let me, Rodimus.” The white one held his servo out, “I think they don’t trust you with holding them.”
You approached the servo with caution, touching a digit with your not-super-bloody hand. When they didn’t try to grab you, you slowly crawled onto their open palm. Another squeak of pain came from your lips when your injured leg touched the hand, though.
The servo slowly brought you close to their body, and the one you assume is Rodimus put a servo on the side of their helmet. “Drift’s holding the organic, I’ll go with him to the medbay and have Ratchet look at ‘em.”
“Percy and I will be there too,” another, more younger-sounding voice said, “I think I found something of note.”
Fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck. What did they find? The medical kit that’s pretty low on supply right now, your sewing kit, or…
They found the files you took with you when you escaped, didn’t they? All those diagrams and logs about your conditions and states, and how your body responded to the implementations. You should’ve kept that in the subspaces, in hindsight.
“Don’t worry,” the one holding you, Drift, comforted, “Ratchet’s a bit grumpy, but he’s one of the best doctors here.”
He’s gonna struggle with the spike since it’s so tiny compared to them. Unless he has some sort of assistant closer to your size, you’re probably gonna be the one to remove it for the doctor.
They started walking, Drift making sure that you were safe, and that you wouldn’t be jostled too much.
You heard a door open, and heard another approach.
“This is the injured organic? The berth is ready, First Aid and I will take care of them.” you assume that was Ratchet.
Drift walked closer to a large metal slab, gently lowering you onto it. A pair of smaller servos held you, lowering you so that you laid supine.
“What’s the thing they’re holding in between their dentas?” the voice from who you infer as being First Aid asked. You removed the switchblade from your mouth without saying a word. With a flick of the wrist, the blade went out, but you then put it back in its original position.
A red servo took the knife away. You wouldn’t need it right now anyway, but they better give it back once they’re done fixing you.
“We should take care of what’s poking out of them first. It’s incredibly tiny though, I doubt my servos can even grab onto it without slipping.” Ratchet prodded around the injury, making you wince.
You sighed, grabbing onto the spike. A growly voice came from your mouth, “I can remove it for you.”
First Aid grabbed onto your bloody hand, “You’re injured! We should be the ones removing it!”
“And you’re literally twice my size,” you rebutted, “I’ve had worse done to me. This is nothing.” You weren’t bluffing either. Those researchers have done worse things to you with their twisted experiments.
Ratched sighed, “They’re probably right. I know it hurts your spark to have a patient removing something that you can, but it seems that they have… experience with removing things from themselves. Clean the wound and stitch it up once they remove the object.”
First Aid looked into your eyes. Despite the plate on their face and visor preventing you from reading his expression, you knew from his tone of voice and body language that he was worried. He reminded you of yourself, in a way. That hyper-empathy that frequently decides to say hello when you least expect it.
“Ready?”
You nodded, slowly pulling the spike out. First Aid held your hand during this, not caring about the blood staining his servos. Comes with the job, you suppose. Once it was removed, a cloth was put over the gaping, bloody hole.
It took a decent amount of time before all injuries were cleaned and stitched up. They also made you digest some kind of liquid that Ratchet claimed to help speed up the healing process. Throughout, you were as obedient as a dog.
During the time the procedure was happening, Drift left. In his place, two other robots were there. First Aid was lifting your upper body so you could sit.
“The patient was rather pleasant, didn’t try fighting me or anything.” Ratchet reported to the red and blue one.
“Eh,” you shrugged, “You spend half your life as a lab rat, you get used to followin’ orders and getting weird things injected into your body.”
Everyone went silent and stared. Some looked confused, others horrified. First Aid stopped.
“Y’all’re lookin at me funny.”
The white and blue bot, who was likely the one who went into your ship, said those six words you remember hearing years ago, “What did they do to you?!”
Not this again.
“Based on those documents,” the red and blue one spoke in a matter-of-fact tone, “many things. I translated all of them. It appears that the patient,” he gestured to you, “was used in experiments to see if subspace entrances could be added to organic bodies for purposes of smuggling items. Clearly, they were successful.”
Welp, cat’s out the bag.
“Do these documents have any information other than that?” First Aid asked, “Where they’re from? Their name? If they have a family?”
You scoffed, “I was taken when I was a baby, as far as I’m concerned I’m an orphan. And I’m confident it’s too late to try and find my biological relatives, if they’re even alive.”
The white and blue bot covered where their mouth would be, “But do you know what planet you’re from? We can start there.”
“The documents say they’re from Earth, and therefore a human. From that recording Tailgate and Rewind found, their name is Y/N.” The taller bot said.
“Thank you, Perceptor. I’ll look over the documents once we clean and sanitize the berth.” Ratchet nodded.
You were exhausted from the chaos of today. Closing your eyes, you quickly fell asleep.
✩✩✩
Ratchet carried the sleeping human to the scanner, looking at the screen as it was scanning.
“There appears to be multiple points of trauma, both new and old. Along with those, signs of experimentation are shown especially on the upper chassis, left bitarlueus, and midsection. The peculiar crescent scar below their tank shall be noted for later questioning.” He noted on his datapad. “For now, it’s best that they rest.”
After the scans finished, he brought the human to a berth meant for the minibots, and sat on a chair nearby to monitor them.

When siblings fight
Masterlist
Rodimus
Sunset is Rodimus' only kid, thank Primus.
More times than not, some bots think that they are spark brothers (Sunset looks a lot like Rodimus when he was Hot Rod) before they realize that Sunset is a Terraformer and say something about it (occasionally they just say "ah, it's one of those" and Rodimus takes it as an insult even if it wasn't)
He is also usually way more calm and just tries to go on with his life, ignoring what others say about him.
Rodimus is another story.
"Dad, let's just go-"
"Ah no, I have a few things to say, hey, you frag face!"
"Dad!"
Is usually Sunset who stops Rodimus, in the worse case escenario he will call Ultra Magnus (who is an enforcer), he won't call Megatron because it could get terrible worse (Rodimus, sometimes, gets the old bot on his side, no one knows HOW) and get from a little commentary to bloody hell.
If someone says something about you, then both are on fire (literally) and ready to start a physical fight.
Optimus
Codexia is an only child and she is an angel, she never gets in any fights, in fact, she tries to stop them with tender words and then hearing both parts involved to give a solution.
No one knows how she puts everything in order, but she does, something that she really needs when she takes the title of Prime even when there is no war.
"How did you get them to an agreement?"
"Natural talent?"
If someone says something about you, Codexia tries to be hard, but fails miserably because she cringes everytime someone says a bad word.
Optimus is the one that appears menacingly behind both you in a protective manner, no one can even utter a sound, because that's Optimus fragging Prime.
When she was only Codexia she tried to be as natural and neutral as she could, when she was called Eminence that was even harder since the Autobots badge was put on her, keeps trying to go on with her responsibilities without relaying on Optimus.
Prowl
Chainbreaker is an only child, but he isn't a saint, well, not entirely.
Your kid haven't done nothing wrong in your eyes, he is very disciplined and prefers to talk above starting a fight, even when it doesn't involve him, such a nice kid, that's how every adult bot see him.
In the other hand, Prowl is more than sure that CB has started way too many fights and even made some mild ones worse, but he never has complete evidence of it.
Prowl doesn't know if he must feel worried by this behavior or be pleased (maybe proud) about Chainbreaker's ability to keep a clean track.
"Well played, kid"
"I don't know of what you're talking about, father"
CB really doesn't know, he does try to help calm the riot but he only gets it worse.
Truth is that he has Prowl's resting bitch face, something that he and some Praxians have to live with (Smokescreen tends to pat the young bot's shoulder armor in support and understanding).
Whirl
Whirl knows that Tik Tok is a sentient group of scraplets that can murder a cybertronian by eating it from inside out in mere seconds.
Does that make him stop the fights between his two girls? Absolutely no, he is in reality placing bets.
"That was my energon cube!"
"You don't even have a necessity for it, just drink water or whatever!"
"But that was my sweet flavored energon cube!"
They get physical more times than not.
Cyclonus is the one that stops the fight, or you, or he helps you because Tik Tok and Whirl Jr. can get so mad to one another that more than once you were way to close to being stomped on.
Tailgate is crying in a corner saying that he couldn't live with himself if something ever happened to any of them, almost bawling when they are cat fighting in the floor, he is going to buy more energon snacks, so stop this madness!
Whirl called you all boring, but he is the first one to stop any fight if it really does get out of control.
Blurr
When some parents have two hormone drive teenagers with a short temperament and around the same age, it's normal an even healthy to let them fight and get to a mutual understanding by themselves.
That's a liberty that Blurr and you can't have.
Not when your first child is wild and way too ready to throw a punch or your youngest that can boil someone alive if he really is on the edge.
"Pressurized hot tea pot valve"
"Dry hay hair pussy"
"Cry baby virgin"
"Poor excuse of a mammal"
"You call my tits little one more time and I'm cutting your wires while you recharge!"
Blurr has tried to stop them more than once, but Ripley and Typhoon know that he doesn't exactly mean it when he takes an authority aura, they know that he is way too soft when it comes to them.
When Blurr's long time friends come to the bar and see that kind of display they would laugh while saying how it melts their spark that Ripley acts just like her mentor when he was young, Blurr can only damn his younger self internally.
You need to be there to stop any fight from going too far (your husband simping for you in the corner, quietly).
Blurr has lost way too many loved photos in every one of his kids fighting moments, you tell him that those are still saved in data, he says it's not the same.
Bumblebee
Rosalinde was already a young adult when Blood Horn was forged so they never had a real collision with one another.
It's difficult to be angry with the little femme when she is just so little, and the bright pink of her armor is way too eye catching, making BH quite (a lot) more adorable.
And a lot more easy as a target.
Yet again, Rosalinde has grown worried about Bumblebee, her adoptive father, for as long as she can remember.
And Blood Horn is even worse than Bee when getting in trouble.
"What were you thinking?! That femme was thrice your size!"
"It's fine, she felt my punch in her face plate!"
"But then she stomped all over you! You are covered in dents and your own energon..."
Rosalinde ends up crying more times than not for her little sister.
Bumblebee tries to tell her not to worry, he is going to see what he can do and also talk to BH, but he can only do so much with you already in tears, everyone using your baby as a ragdoll and she going around like it was normal!
Bee can only believe that there is something wrong with the pink color, some kind of bad vibes or something, Arcee likes BH color and tells her so everytime they cross paths.
Jazz
Having three kids is a wild road, one that Jazz takes while singing "Life is a hallway"
He let's them vent anything they want to say because he believes in the growth by experiences.
Pauline is quite the smart cookie, getting away with many discussions as the winner, he is also the oldest, Amber Dust is your little boy, even when he is as tall as a house, so he tends to go for you in hopes of get your help.
Mariah, since she is the family's bebe, tends to be a little shit.
"Why do you have my music in your room?"
"I just found it there, okay bro?"
"Don't lie, Mariah! You don't even need it!"
"Please stop fighting or I'll tell creator about it!"
"Don't get in this, Amber!"
Amber Dust tends to be ignored even when he tries to keep peace, typical middle child crisis.
They never go to far with their words, so Jazz watches and hears from a distance, content smile on his face plate when the three get to a mutual understanding.
And intervening if things go too wild to his or your liking, it never happens, really, but is better be safe than sorry.
