Does anyone else think that Megatron would be a decent sire pre-war and post-war, but not during the war?
I mean, pre-war Megatron was a miner in some continuities; he wanted freedom from the oppressive system he was born in. He wanted himself and everyone else that was in a similar position to have the right to be whatever they wanted to be.
Having a sparkling could’ve fueled this desire further, as Megatron wouldn’t want the his offspring to suffer same fate.
Mid war Megatron would be different, I think. He was all caught up in wanting power and control that he made a lot of messed up decisions. Maybe in the process he accidentally drove his sparkling away, so the relationship between sire and sparkling became strained. He would care, probably, but he is so battle hardened that his sparkling doubts that he even cares about them.
If he really cared, he would’ve stopped this war. After all, his sparkling can die at any moment, in battle, or maybe in front of him. He did get his freedom, right?
Post-war (mtmte specifically) Megatron would be that veteran dad that would be filled with guilt. Come on, he fucked up hard; there is no way that he wouldn’t be even a tiny bit guilty. That bot would definitely be trying to fix the relationship, and he would be protective as heck, too. Not enough to be suffocating, but enough to know when he’s following or watching from a distance.
He’s desperately trying to mend what he carelessly tossed. Even though it’s true that he can’t apologize to every individual he hurt, he hopes that he can make up to his child, even if said child doesn’t forgive him.
(This is probably OOC, but I had to get this thought off my mind. Blame my friend for claiming that Megatron would be a girl dad after I introduced him.)
(Also I didn’t proofread this, sorry if I give you dyslexia.)
