Hi, I'm Drega! 25 years old, pronouns are She/Her There's a little bit of everything here, some art, some writing, but mostly just stuff I like lol. This is a combo main/self ship blog so there's stuff related to my f/os as well as just random crap. Enjoy the craziness!!
I think with a human partner, Rodimus gets grabby. He just wants you physically close to him. He's dragging you into all sorts of stunts that a human probably shouldn't be a part of, and someone (you) is going to have to talk a little sense into him about it. He's constantly talking you up, you two are obviously the power couple of the Lost Light
C-Cuddles
He unsurprisingly runs hot, which he thanks Primus for now cause in the cold void of space he's become your personal space heater. In quieter moments he'll wrap you up in a blanket to cushion his hard plating and he'll hold you against his chest while you soak up the heat.
Bonus!: Complimenting their alt-mode and transformation is seen as hardcore flirting back on Cybertron, personal hc, but I thought it was fun to include:)Â
Note: Please lmk if the âread moreâ doesnât work as Iâve has some problems with it on mobile lately! I feel like I mightâve written too much for this one. Also, OOC for a few of them but oh well:) Iâm just here for fun lol
CW/TW: MDNI, SFW but suggestive especially Rodimus, gender neutral human reader, some established relationships and some not! (Yet;), I clarified which were newly established and which werenât by the character names!Â
The echoing sound of the bases massive garage doors opening has you curiously walking down the halls to the main warehouse, where Prime had just pulled in after going on a supply run with Arcee and Bumblebee. You stay mostly out of the way, the other mechs at base helping to unload his trailer while you head to the front of Ops truck mode to catch up after the long day, eager to hear his gruff but soothing voice.Â
You two share small talk about your days, heâs telling funny stories from the supply run and you complain about the paper work youâd had to complete, needing to go through annoying phone calls to complete it. His presence soothes any ache from work away too quickly though, it has you noting how your crush on the leader seems to have become much more difficult to sweep under the rug and keep hidden, even earning knowing looks and nudges from some of the other bots.Â
Within no time the team is done unloading everything, and you make way for Ops to transform, eager to finally catch a glimpse as he doesnât let you come on patrols or missions with him for safety reasons, so you hadnât seen it before.Â
Perched atop one of the raised warehouse walkways after scurrying up one of the long ramps, youâll be about chassis level with him now.Â
He detaches his trailer after backing it into the normal spot- red and blue metal plates begin to shift and move across his body, interconnecting with other pieces of metal, his tires rotate then flip sideways and his exhaust pipes move further towards his back as he stands to full height, taking a few steps towards the walkway youâre perched on to face you, (well, mostly.) He looks so leader-like. Confident and caring nature seeping off him in an aura.Â
And here you are, too stunned to speak, shocked at how intricate and intriguing his transformation was and you canât seem to stop gawking from your position, now eyeing his chassis before staring up at him, mouth slightly agape.Â
He lets out a little confused grunt, expression the equivalent of furrowing his eyebrows, âAre you alright?â He sounds concerned, youâve been staring for a solid minute now and youâre very warm when he reaches to place a large servo on your back. âDo you need me to take you somewhere private?â You shake your head to break your trance, heart rate a bit higher than it should be, and you realize he probably thinks heâs scared you or something. âOh, no no! Iâm fine, just a little shocked is all-â His servo is checking your temperature now, âYour transformation is just fascinating, I havenât seen it before.â His lips part a bit, and he vents inwards almost imperceptibly, a little shocked at your words. Itâs been a while since heâs received a compliment like that, let alone someone flirting with him, even more so that someone being you, the human heâd taken interest in romantically but had yet to do anything about.Â
He lightly shakes his helm, optics shutting off for a klik while he gives you a small chuckle, low and rough. He pets his servo down from your head to your back lovingly. âThank you, I appreciate that. And Iâm glad youâre alright.âÂ
You notice Jazz- who was very well aware of your feelings for Ops- out of the corner of your eye, and before you can even respond to Optimus, Jazz is cupping his servos around his mouth yelling from the other side of the warehouse, âThatâs some hardcore flirting where weâre from!â And you see Ratchet shove his head forward so he walks away, cackling his aft off down the hall.Â
You stiffen in his servo, painfully aware that Optimus can feel how warm youâre getting again and see how flustered you are, âIâm sorry, I didnât mean- I mean I do mean it, I just-â He finds your stammering cute as it is unnecessary, happy to have received any praise from you at all but still planning to give Jazz a lecture for putting you on the spot.Â
âItâs alright, no need to worry.â Does he know his voice is that soothing? Is he doing it on purpose? The way he smiles so gently down at you has you thinking he does.Â
âIf youâd like, I can take you for a drive? There are many scenic spots around the base. Apologies for having not offered sooner.â He wanted to confess to you at a good time, somewhere romantic and private but it seems he wonât get that chance as you steel yourself to the utmost, finding a confidence in Jazzâ words that you previously hadnât known, âItâs okay, you mean like a date?â You look so genuine and hopeful- but he can feel your little hands shaking slightly, clearly still flustered- he takes a few kliks just to commit that look in your eyes to his memory banks.Â
As if his smile could soften any further, he bends down to place a slow, chaste kiss to your cheek, patting your head and enjoying the way you nearly squeak in response. You can hear that delightful gruff chuckle again through his breath, âIâd like that.â
Jazz - newly establishedÂ
Youâre checking your appearance one last time in the mirror, moving around the house swiftly to prepare for your first proper date tonight with Jazz.Â
See, you two had gone on many late night drives together, stayed up and marathoned movies, even cooked dinner for one another- it was fun to have him taste test so many human foods and see his reactions- but you had yet to go on a proper first date. Tonight, however, that was going to change! You couldnât be more excited, and also nervous.Â
Your anxieties were quickly cut short by the sound of loud cheesy late 70s music playing from your garage, startling you into nearly dropping your phone- youâd given Jazz a key a long while ago even before making yourselves official, as heâd be over at your house practically everyday anyways- so you knew it was him. Rolling your eyes with a snort at âit feels like the first time~â coming from his radio, knowing damn well he had the biggest smirk on his face waiting for you.Â
Entering the garage which had been occupied more by him than you at this point, youâre presented with a variety of your favorite candy alongside what is probably the largest bouquet of flowers youâd ever seen resting atop a rickety old workbench- you had never bothered to replace it. Next to it, Jazz was parked, singing along with the music so loud you can hear the smile in his voice. Heâs flashing his lights and wiggling his tires in a funny little dance that has you laughing loud enough he can hear your sweet voice over the radio.Â
He turns down the volume down as he backs up a bit, shifting out of his alt-mode and back to the form youâve grown so familiar with. Youâve seen his vehicle mode before but never his transformation sequence, always managing to miss it by a hair.Â
But now your curiosity is more than sated- seeing the metal plating retract and shift across his frame, his chassis coming up and his door wings moving to their rightful position behind him. You can all too clearly see his mesh flex underneath the rotating metal on his thighs and his servos pushing himself off the ground before he kneels down to reach out to you.Â
You didnât think you could be so flustered by such a sight but here you are, kind of wanting to cancel the date and skip to the aftermath. And he definitely notices your reaction. Heâs Jazz after all, heâd be nothing if not observant.Â
âWell donât you look lovely, care to join me tonight?â Heâs not even trying to hide how smug he is, engine revving when you come close enough he can feel the fabric of your outfit brush against his arm. Itâs so soft, he recognizes it as one of your favorite outfits and he thinks you look almost too enticing.Â
Meanwhile youâre desperately trying to cover up how loud your heart is beating right now, clearing your throat before you speak, âYou donât look too bad yourself, I have yet to see your transformation. Itâs so smooth..â Your voice is trailing off, but from Jazzâ perspective, you sound so genuine he canât stop his engine from revving again, a little euphoric from your comment, even knowing youâre unaware that youâre coming on to him hard right now according to his culture.Â
He lets out a signature chuckle, servo coming around to cup your back protectively, âYa know doll, thatâs considered flirting where I come from,â heâs got that teasing lit to his voice even though you can tell heâs being honest, his vents ticked up a notch now.Â
âAh, well-â pressing your noticeably warm cheek against his chassis to avoid his optics and wrapping your arms around him as best you can, heâs stroking up and down your spine tantalizingly, âitâs a good thing we have a date planned then, right?âÂ
Mirage - not established but is afterÂ
Feeling squeaky clean and freshly buffed, Mirage makes his way into the base with a grin so wide it barely fits his face. He looks not unlike a pleased cat after they knock something down, a little cocky.Â
âYou sure seem chipper,â your comment is only met with bright optics, happy to hear from his little crush. He poses dramatically when he nears you, pointing his thumbs at his chassis before giving you finger guns, âWhy wouldnât I? Ya boy just got a nice detail and new rims, Iâm feeling fantastic!â You canât help but think heâs so cute when heâs happy like this, his confidence and cheerful nature both infectious.Â
âOh yeah? Show me!â Heâs never shown you his transformation to his alt-mode before, having always done it out of sight so as to remain incognito.Â
He offers you a sweet laugh, âYeah? Wanna piece of the Mirage? Best and fastest speedster around?â He steps back a few paces from you, incredibly swift with how he switches to his Porsche alt, legs swooping around him almost like heâs breakdancing. You can see how his wheels join together in the middle, new rims on perfect display, his chassis shifts in a way youâve never seen before and invisible seams appear in his metal plating. His biolights are brighter than before- what with how youâre gawking at him- and he decides to show off a bit, heâs favorite thing to do when youâre around, youâve learned.Â
âOh, ya like that? Thatâs not all-â he cuts himself off by spinning into a different alt, a Ferrari this time, that new buffing he just got doing him favors you were unaware could exist on a car. But you canât look for long before heâs switching to other sports cars, some youâve never even heard of and heâs spouting off names and models like an auctioneer.Â
He ceases his impromptu fashion show with another steady transformation and little hop onto his pedes, thoroughly enjoying your expressions, amazed at all youâd seen. âHa, impressed? Why thank you~â heâs so proud of himself, but internally heâs flustered to the max, hopes you canât hear his fans when you scurry a bit closer to him, reaching a small hand to his arm when he kneels down to your level.Â
âThat was awesome!! Your transformation looks so cool! I love the rims and your finish looks great!â Heâs choking back a stutter, trying to seem as suave as possible while you praise him so earnestly, has no clue if you know what youâre saying to him right now but by Primus does he not want to correct you if you donât.Â
He feels too guilty to let you offer him so many compliments without informing you that youâre hitting on him, âHeh, you realize youâre flirting with me, right? Compliments to alt modes and transformations are like, flirting 101 back on Cybertron.â He really hopes youâre not uncomfortable, wants you so desperately to continue itâs not even funny.Â
âOh- I did not,â and his spark sinks a little at your tone, excitement dropping from it only momentarily, he honestly thinks youâre going to reject him and he hasnât even confessed yet, âbut I donât mind, I mean it.â Youâre smiling? His optics shoot wide, his lips parted and you catch a hint of his glossa peaking from behind them, had he been biting it?Â
âYou- wait seriously??â He sounds happy and confused all at the same time, shaking his helm as if he heard you incorrectly, âYou actually donât mind that you just flirted with me? Hang on, I did say that, right? Like out loud, not just thought it? I donât know if I explained myself-â and you cut him off by laughing- that sweet giggle heâs come to dream of in his recharge- wanting to stop his stammering.Â
âI donât mind Mirage, and yes Iâm serious. I like you anyway, so whatâs the harm?â He swears his spark just stopped. You look so content with what youâd just said, like it wasnât hard for you at all, like youâd known for so long. Had you? Oh- If this is returning to the All-spark heâs happy to go, being praised by you is nothing short of divine and finding out you like him back? He can offline happy now.Â
He takes a moment to run a quick system check just to make sure he isnât in one of those dreams from earlier, still shocked heâs not. âNo fraggin way- when weâre you gonna tell me? Did you- Ya know what, scrap that, Iâm taking you on a date. Hop in,â and heâs eagerly shifting back to his alt-mode while you laugh, the melodious sound continuing while you two speed off to who knows where.Â
Ironhide - not established but is afterÂ
The wind carries sounds of clanking metal straight to you as you watch from your little makeshift perch, Ironhide and Cliffjumper were sparing out in the field below, though not too far from you, far enough they could freely move and shoot without risking you getting hurt.Â
Youâd been watching for an hour now, having been checked up on a few times by Ops and the others just to ensure youâre good. You enjoy watching Ironhide spar, itâs a nice way to pass the time actually. Youâd grown to have a big crush on the grumpy mech, even though you didnât get to see him as often as either of you wouldâve liked given his schedule.Â
Unbeknownst to you, Ironhide had an equally large crush on you. Cursing himself for acting like a damn youngin trying to impress you without even meaning to. Youâre just so funny and sweet, but why would you want an ole mech like him? Heâd subconsciously resigned to not confessing unless you came to him first, thinking youâd probably be more interested in some of the less busy, less cranky bots. Though he tends to be much less cranky when youâre around, your voice and presence offering him much appreciated respite.
He and Cliff finish up around the time you shake yourself out of your daydreaming, and you watch as Cliff speeds off after Ironhide pats him on the shoulder. He glances up to your perch, and you offer him a small wave. You realize youâve never actually seen him transform after watching Cliff head off, and after tossing a few things off their makeshift sparing arena, he starts shifting to make his way towards you.Â
Watching in fascination as his chassis moves, his servos land on the ground and you can see the mesh underneath his metal which has your mind reeling, heâs quick in his short drive over to you- only a few hundred feet but figured driving was faster- before heâs shifting back and youâre thankful you get to watch his sequence up close this time.Â
Heâs more than a little surprised when you start complimenting his transformation and sparing with such excitement, praising him in ways he hasnât heard in a long time. He has to force the surprised expression on his face to return to a grumpy pout to hide how heâs actually feeling. Realizing you probably donât know what youâre saying to him right now.Â
âHm, shouldnât go around saying that stuff or youâll be askin for trouble,â heâs honestly worried youâd given many of the others the wrong idea if youâd complimented them like that, and heâs a little grouchy at the thought. âTo us, thatâs flirting.âÂ
Youâre a bit surprised at the information heâs provided you, but see this as an opportunity to feel out whether or not heâs interested in you, I mean he seemed a little flattered by your words so, might as well try?Â
âHa, sorry, I didnât know. But I still mean it, you look good! If it helps, I only say this stuff to you.â You emphasize the last word and now heâs unable to hide how heâs feeling, embarrassed and flustered but still the grumpy pout youâve come to know and love resting atop his face. Though thereâs a hint of a smirk under there too.Â
He clicks his glossa and shakes his helm in realization, youâd felt the same way the whole time and he hadnât noticed. Mentally notes he needs to get his optics checked next time he goes to Ratchets.Â
Standing above you only slightly in your little perch, âIf ya told me sooner, I wouldâve taken you on a date like a gentlemech should,â heâs smiling now, not bothering to keep up any facades around you, offering you a servo, âCare to let an ole mech make good on that, love?âÂ
Rodimus - newly establishedÂ
Heâs pouting, that much you can tell, even from your spot on the side of the racetracks. Rodimus had just pulled off the main track and into a pit area alongside Drift and Blurr. They had been racing for a while, placing bets against each other and low and behold, the fastest himself, Blurr beat everyone by a long shot.Â
Roddy had managed to pull ahead of Drift and get second, not even considering beating Blurr, but he was still a bit peeved he hadnât managed to beat his personal best time yet again. Had he just been on a different level that day? Was his matrix doing something? He didnât know, but he did know it was annoying.Â
He exchanges a few words with the others before pulling over to the side where you were, eager and needing to hear praise from his beloved little human partner after such a race.Â
Youâd only been together a short while, and work had been super busy, so you hadnât really caught his transformation sequence before, at least not up close. Youâd caught the tail end of it earlier when he was on the track, but missed the real show.Â
Bright red and orange begin peeling off to different areas of his frame as he moves to stand, arms and legs appearing and pushing himself upwards almost like a push-up, you can see his red biolights revealing themselves once again on his abdomen area. He stands tall next to the guardrails decorating the edge of the seating area, reaching to lay his arms crossed atop it in front of you.Â
âHowâd ya like the show, hmm? Enjoy seeing your future conjunx race?â Heâs almost playing coy with the way he wants your praise right now- always seeking it out like a moth to a lamp- little more than just bummed at not beating his record in front of you.
âI loved it, you looked so good! You guys were so fast I can hardly keep up,â your genuine laughter spreads warmth through him and you can feel the way his em field brushes affectionately against you. Warm, familiar and protective, slightly tingly like static.Â
âAww, youâre so sweet, thank ya love.â Heâs happy to hear it but wants more, feeling all too greedy for you all the time. Realizing what he wants, you offer him honest praise, compliments youâd been waiting to give him since you caught the end of his shifting earlier. âYou know Roddy,â heâs looking at you expectantly now, âI never get the chance to see your transformation,â youâre fawning internally over the smoothness, âand I donât get to see your alt-mode often either. Itâs a shame, youâre so pretty.âÂ
Heâs practically beaming, fans kicking on and the smile on his face grows ten times larger, showing his denta when he laughs. He leans forward to brush his helm on your forehead, âYou know if we werenât already together Iâd think you were trying to get in my panels right now,â heâs just being a tease but you figure it would be fun to give him a taste of his own medicine, maybe distract him a bit sensing heâs a little down and in need of that right now, he always has been easy for you to fluster.Â
âWho says Iâm not, huh? I mean, have you even seen yourself? Itâs a wonder there arenât more people throwing themselves at you, Captain.â And the title slips off your tongue way too deliciously, his biolights are pulsing and he drops his helm to your shoulder when you place a small hand on his cheek. âHah, realize what youâre sayin right? I mean if you wanted a ride that badly all you had to do was ask~â oh he thinks heâs funny, âYeah? Right now? Youâll take me for a spin around the track then?â Heâs perking up at your words, having just been poking fun at you before, now heâs excited for where this is going. âYou really want that? Iâd be happy to!â He looks so eager, happy to have you slotted nice and safe in his front seat while he shows you how fast he can go.
At your nod he takes you into his servos and pulls you against his chassis, nuzzling his faceplate against the top of your head before heâs shifting around you, setting you down gently in his drivers seat and clicking your buckle into place.Â
You instinctively place your hands on his gearshift and wheel and it has his engine stalling for a moment as he backs onto the track again, youâre flooding him with compliments about how cool that transition was, how excited you are, and heâs eating it up, em field brushing up against you even more now that youâre in his chassis.Â
Seeing the way you light up as he takes off, your smile so bright it could put a spark to shame, maybe heâs not so upset he didnât beat his record after all.Â
First Aid - establishedÂ
The sudden ringing of your phone startles you, interrupting your current work flow on what was frankly, incredibly boring paperwork. You heave a sigh, annoyed it will take you a few minutes to get back into your groove, but youâre still quick to pick up the call when you see itâs your partner calling.Â
First Aid had been out getting some supplies for the med-bay a few hours prior, leaving you very bored in the base. While some of the other Protectobots were home, theyâd been pretty busy with patrols today, so you chose to help out by plowing through some of their paperwork for them. Needless to say, your boredom was alleviated by your partners call, happy to hear his soft voice again.Â
âHi honey, headed back?â Eager to hear about his impending arrival, you donât even give him time to greet you in return before asking about it. You hear his amused hum from the other end of the call, âHm, hi pretty, Iâm on the way now. Could I trouble you to help me bring a few things into the med-bay when I get there? If youâre not busy, that is,â and heâs always been considerate.Â
âYeah, course! I donât mind at all, Iâll open the warehouse door outside the bay, âkay?â While youâre happy to see him and help out, youâre also just glad you wonât be doing mind numbing paperwork anymore. Evidently he was only a few kliks away when he called.Â
âThatâs perfect, cause Iâm already here,â he laughs lightly at your little choked noise of surprise, immediately rushing up to go open the door, abandoning your phone at your desk.Â
Low and behold heâs patiently waiting when you rush to smack the button, and you watch as he backs in towards you and opens his rear doors. Itâs not often he transforms these days- only really doing so when necessary or to stretch a bit- which is good honestly. The less ambulance rides the world needs, the better.Â
âCould you grab those boxes on the right? I donât want to jostle them around too much shifting back,â already nodding, moving to step inside and bring the hefty boxes out to the counters nearby, you can hear liquid sloshing around inside the bottles the box contains.Â
It doesnât take you long, only a few things needing to be moved, and you two make small talk about the past few hours. The nice humans he spoke to today at the hospital, your finishing of some paperwork for the guys. Heâs happy to hear your voice after working all day, finding it hard to remain focused while missing you.Â
âOkay, I can get the rest, thank you love,â he doesnât want to push you, hearing how busy youâd been, you deserve a rest.Â
He slides forward a few feet, closing his rear doors before the metal exterior of the ambulance starts to move, decals splitting apart and sliding to lock into place elsewhere, glimpses of mesh and biolights visible beneath his plating as he transforms carefully, grabbing the leftover boxes from within before they can fall. He makes it look so easy, having done it so many times.Â
You donât realize youâre silently staring until he finishes setting the last of the supplies down onto the counter next to you, only barely stifling a chuckle, he brushes a gentle servo against your cheek.Â
âI appreciate the gesture, but youâre staring hun.â You shake your head a bit to break your daze, instinctively placing a hand on the servo resting against your cheek. âRight- sorry,â you laugh a little at the moment, the two of you both finding your ogling humorous, âyour transformation looks different whenever youâve got something in your box, itâs fun to watch.âÂ
His mask clicks out of place and you glance up at the sound- squishing your cheek further into his servo- to find his softened expression aimed down at you.Â
âThank you, seems Iâm not the only one whoâs been missing someone today?â his naturally soft spoken voice only amplifies the teasing lit heâs got now, liking the way you roll your eyes at his words. âI always miss you, I was only staring because your sequence looked different, itâs charming-â your breathy laughter not doing him any favors right now, youâve known for too long what complimenting an alt-mode does to a bot. âBesides, itâs not my fault youâre so cute.â Youâre giving him a playful smile, placing a slow kiss to his servo, knowing his hands are particularly sensitive.Â
That feels way too good after a long day, and heâs glad heâs got so much self control or heâd ask you not to stop, right in the middle of the med bay.Â
âHeh, you think so? How about we finish putting these supplies away and then head back to the habsuite? Iâm sure we could both use a break after working all day,â and he knows exactly what that not at all innocent smile on his face does as he moves to go back to work, leaving you to turn shades of red that match his paint job behind him.Â
Vortex - not established but is afterÂ
You had successfully made your way to the roof of the base, a big yellow helipad greeting you when you finally managed to force open the heavy door leading outside. Vortex liked to hang out up here, presumably to get some fresh air along with some peace and quiet. It was often noisy in the Combaticons base, cacophonous sounds of rowdy mechs ringing through every hall, random brawls taking place over lost bets.Â
The breeze felt lovely, the small hairs that framed your face lightly shifting. It makes sense that the helicopter of the group liked heights and the wind. It helped that the view was lovely.Â
The copter in question turns only his head, glancing over his shoulder at you from his spot at the edge of the rooftop. It wasnât very tall, but he wasnât letting you get too close without a servo prepared to catch you if necessary. Heâs not entirely convinced your kind canât be blown away with how small you are.Â
âFound me I see, do ya need somethin?â Heâd sound uninterested, annoyed even, if you werenât already familiar with his speech patterns. Youâd spent enough time with him to know when he was really unhappy, and learned he seemed to particularly like you.Â
âJust wondering where my favorite mech had flown off to, is all.â You plop yourself down next to him, happily observing both the view and the way his rotor blades on his back shift when he moves back to his original position- leaning back on his servos with his legs kicked over the edge. Swindle had once mentioned that you could always tell how bots with wings and rotors were feeling based on how the body parts moved, but you werenât sure how much you could believe from him at the time. Getting to know Tex just solidified that the con was in fact honest, though.
He seemed pretty content at the moment, even letting his optics shut off when the breeze picked up a bit, faceplate removed and angled up towards the sky, âYour favorite, huh? Iâll make sure the others hear about that,â heâs trying to sound teasing and tough but he canât help how his spark thrums at your words, internally cursing himself for being so wrapped around your finger and not even being your partner. Yet, he hopes.Â
Youâre only mostly listening, curiosity peaked at the memory of Swins words, reaching to gingerly lay a hand on his rotor, lightly brushing your fingers against the smooth metal. Immediately he stiffens, servo catching your wrist so fast you donât even see him move before youâre looking up at wide optics. Noting the facial expression heâs making, youâve never seen it before.Â
âHuh? Is that embarrassment I see?â heâs quick to shush you with bared denta and a low growl, âShut it,â letting go of your wrist before turning his head away, back to the sky, âYou could get cut, be more careful.â Heâd almost sound stern if it werenât for his vents kicking on and the way his rotors were slightly idling-Â
Great! Heâs not gonna be able to get that sensation out of his processor now, and heâs mentally thanking you as sarcastically as possible- though heâs very much hoping youâll do it again at some point, maybe a bit more private. He does consider himself pretty adventurous though, so then again, maybe not.Â
He allows you to continue though, post warning, trailing a single finger along the center of one of his rotors. You donât miss the way his plating resembles that of a bird with the way it almost ruffles up at your touch.Â
âYou know, Iâve never actually seen you in your alt-mode.â Youâve been curious for a while, but his mode of transport doesnât exactly allow you to see it very often, let alone join him for a flight. Though heâd never ever let something happen to you, he might still tease you about what he does to those unlucky autobots.Â
âOh? Curiosity killed the cat, doll.â Heâs smirking down at you, a little cocky given your interest in his alt appearance. But youâre used to his antics, you know how to give back what he gives you, âAnd satisfaction brought it back.â You say confidently, itâs the perfect conditions for a flight today after all.Â
âThatâs how it is huh,â He seems to be humored by that, pushing off his servos and hoping swiftly to his pedes, making sure to bend down and push you away from the edge with a single servo. Smirking when you tumble back a bit. âFine, Iâll bite. Wanna fly me that bad? Iâll show you heights youâve never seen,â and heâs sauntering over to the center of the helipad, turning back to you when you follow several meters behind him, staying outside the circle.Â
Youâre already a little flustered at his offer to make you see new heights and the implications of that, but itâs increasing rapidly watching his transformation sequence. Metal glides across metal, itâs almost too fast for you to catch the details. The way his biolights become obscured and covered by plating, folding in on himself yet moving in a manner that retains his large size, his rotors spinning into place as he comes off the ground by a few feet before landing expertly. The wind from his rotors whips across your face but it isnât as harsh as youâd expected. You suspect he did that on purpose.Â
âThere, happy? Or are you just gonna stare?â You know heâs just teasing you but youâre all too enticed by the way he just moved- which has you questioning many things- and red in the face.Â
Moving towards him when he slides open his door, heâs keenly aware you are completely oblivious to how much youâre flirting with him when you offer him compliments and praise with every step. He clicks his glossa, feeling your barely perceptible weight as you step into the cockpit and plop yourself into one of his pilot seats excitedly, âBack home, that level of flirting wouldâve just earned you a date, or a drink at least.âÂ
You take a moment to process his words before realizing what he means, feeling a bit too warm for comfort all of the sudden. âI- I didnât know!â Your incredulous stammering just makes him laugh, a bit maniacal in nature as was typical for him, but you start laughing along too after a few seconds, still a bit embarrassed. âI donât regret it, though.â and your voice is almost a whisper, but he can hear you loud and clear.Â
He takes a minute to process the situation himself, mentally freaking out for a moment before swapping back to his more suave self, âSounds like Iâm taking you for a flight then.â Heâll ask you on a more official first date when you two get back, but for now, he wants to hear you spill more of that sweet praise just for him.Â
Hound - not established but is after
Hound is a big sweetspark- youâd come to know that like the back of your hand- always worrying for you and wanting to ensure you get home safely from the base. Or anywhere really. If you tell him about your plans to go out with friends, heâs gently reminding you to give him a call or shoot him a text to let him know youâre home safe. He doesnât mean to come off as possessive in some way, heâs painfully aware that you two are just friends, and he hopes thatâs only for now, he really does just want to make sure youâre alright.Â
The weather forecast had shown heavy rain all morning when youâd been picked up from your house by Cliffjumper, who had oh-so-lovingly pointed out that you were only calling him because you were too shy to ask Hound. Smacking his dashboard only causing him to retaliate pettily, âHa!- Wanna be like that? Fine, you can have Hound take you home then.â Youâre giving him the most ridiculous look now, and he finds it hilarious. âI mean you could always walk too, whatâs a little rain gonna do-â and you smack him a second time. Itâs not enough to hurt, and you two had been besties for so long now he knew how you were gonna respond to his teasing before heâd even said anything.Â
Work went by smoothly at the base, though the team had kept the weather channel opened basically all day on the TV in the common area. Hound had been checking it periodically, and it wasnât letting up, pouring even more than that morning. Worried about you making it home safe, knowing you lived pretty far out from base. Maybe he should tell Cliff to take you home- knows you two are very close- but when he makes way to do exactly that, the red bot only laughs and throws a hand up, âNope, you can take âem. Iâm sure they wonât mind. And I know you wonât either,â heâs sauntering off after shooting Hound a wink, knowing the green mechs feelings for you already.Â
Cliff was honestly just sick of being a part of you twos song and dance these past few months, and was using every excuse he could to get you two to finally confess.Â
Hound exvents heavily, worried he might come off a bit weird asking to take you home when youâd always gone with Cliffjumper. But it appears that little slag wonât be helping him out- and he makes the mental note not to do him any favors this week- so he heads out to find you.Â
Youâre curled up in a blanket on the couch with some of the others, weatherman yammering away on the TV as you guys wait out the storm. Bumblebee is upside down with his pedes over the back of the couch next to you, and Ratchet is standing with his arms crossed behind the two of you. Jazz had already tried to alleviate everyoneâs impatience with some music which was nice.Â
âSevere thunderstorms set to continue throughout the night until tomorrow morning, watch out night drivers!â And youâre internally cursing at Cliff for his dramatic display this morning. Know heâs petty as fuck too, he will not be taking you home. Heâd probably let you sleep in his berth though, rather youâd just punch in the code that only heâs supposed to know to his hab and sneak in to spend the night since he barely ever rests. Youâre not too keen on not being able to brush your teeth or shower though, so you might just have to grovel an apology at him.Â
Youâre brought out of your âsmacking Cliffjumper a third timeâ trance by a gentle tap on your shoulder, careful not to snag at your blanket. You glance upwards behind you, meeting Hounds gaze, Ratchet now missing, immediately growing a bit nervous.Â
Heâs so friendly and sweet, he always makes sure you get home safe, calls you âdollâ and âsweetsparkâ and âdarlinâ. He asks you questions about life as a human, enjoying your company. You think your crush is starting to inhibit your ability to work at the base at this point.Â
âRainin pretty hard, asked Cliff if heâd take ya home but heâs not havin it tonight.â He sounds exasperated at your friend, and you hope to everything Cliff didnât mention this morning to Hound. âOh, yeah he already let me know this morning he wouldnât be taking me home,â you hope you donât come off as dismissive, âI was thinking of staying here but I donât really have my things so-â your voice trails off, you hadnât thought of a solution yet so you werenât exactly sure how to finish your statement.Â
âHow âbout I take ya home then? Donât worry, youâll be safe, promise.â And heâs making your heart rate pick up with the way heâs smiling softly down at you. You quickly nod before thinking, âThat sounds nice, thank you so much, are you sure it isnât too much trouble?â Youâve managed to wiggle your blankets edge free out from under Bumblebee, who whines, standing to round the couch.Â
âNo trouble at all darlin,â you throw the blanket over Bee and he happily chirps at you, waving you goodbye, âReady to head out?â He walks you to the garage door at your nod, backing up after pressing the button, which was nearly smashed from so much use.Â
The green mech begins to transformer behind you, catching his knees meeting the concrete floor as they shift into his undercarriage, wheels roll into their place and his doors all shut in time with his final movements. Youâd even caught a sneak peak of his mesh and biolights beneath his plating. âTheyâre so prettyâ but your thoughts are interrupted when he pops open the drivers side door, already turning on the heat so you wouldnât catch a cold in the rain.Â
âLetâs get ya home doll, need to stop anywhere on the way?â You slot so perfectly into his front seat, small gentle hands on his wheel nearly has his engine stalling, âNope, but thereâs no rush,â you mull it over in your head to ask him about his transformation. What does it feel like? What do those lights underneath mean? Whatâre they for?
 âBy the way, when you transform, what does it feel like? Iâve never asked,â heâs definitely going to stall if he doesnât get going now. The seat behind you feels a little warmer than before.Â
âItâs like a human stretchin, thatâs what Ratchet said anyway. If ya donât do it for a while, ya start gettin stiff in the joints.â Heâs pulled out onto the long dark road leading to the base.Â
âAh, I see,â silence fills for a few minutes while he drives, the rain dripping down the windows, not really thinking much of your next comments, âI liked your lights, theyâre really pretty.â His engine revs unintentionally, and he brakes for a half second causing you to abruptly jolt forward.
âHound? Sorry, did I say something offensive?â Immediately aware that you donât actually know if itâs taboo to say that sort of thing. I mean they are often hidden, youâd only seen them a few times, usually after youâd given him a hug or talked about traveling with him someday. He clears his throat, already  back to driving like before, but you can definitely feel how warm his steering wheel is now.Â
âNo no, itâs not offensive sweetspark. Quite the opposite actually,â he chuckles awkwardly, hoping to ease your discomfort but painfully aware of how flustered he is now. Knows you have no idea that complimenting biolights is usually only something you do with a partner or someone you wanna interface with.Â
âFor us bots, saying somethin so sweet about our lights âs usually a way of showin youâre interested in someone. Itâs flirtin,â you could honestly let the world swallow you whole right now. Ten minutes into the drive and youâd basically just laid your feelings on the table without even knowing it, how long until youâd get home?? Can you survive the next few minutes?
âIâm so sorry,â you cover your face in embarrassment, sliding a hand down and sighing loudly, but you laugh despite the thickness in the air.Â
âI donât mind, comin from you itâs appreciated,â he debates changing the subject for your sake, deciding heâll feel it out based on how you respond.Â
âComing from me?â You let the question hang in the air, and silence lingers between you two for a moment before he vents out a sigh of his own,Â
âGuess itâs time to come clean, huh?â He mentally prepares for a rejection that wonât come, âI like ya a lot doll. Such a sweetspark, I adore your company.. No pressure of course, I understand if youâre not interested, and Iâll still make sure ya get home safe like always, no matter what.âÂ
Youâre scrambling, choking for a response out of yourself, he really thinks youâre not interested?? âWait- I didnât say I wasnât!-â he waits for you to finish when you wave your hands in front of you as if to stop him, âI like you too, a lot, actually.âÂ
He takes a few kliks to process your confession, smiling to himself. âYa do, huh?â And you nod so cute at him, pulling into your driveway around this time, stopping out front.Â
âIn that case, how bout I pick ya up tomorrow mornin, and we can go somewhere nice after work, sound alright?â You smile so wide at his words, offering him a melodious laugh, âThat sounds perfect.â
Still thinking about smacking Cliff a third time though.Â
Note: Thinking of doing a part two with: Arcee, Hotspots, Blurr, Dratchet, Nautica, Bumblebee, maybe Windblade and Swerve. Donât know yet tho! Lol, lmk if thatâs something youâd wanna read:)Â
Always wonder how the bots/cons react to their favorite humans giving them a little kiss? Hehe pun. X3
Just them with their human on their shoulder and the next thing they know⊠their human gives a little peck on their cheek⊠and them not knowing what that is or why their human did that would baffle them to no ends.
And then they read their humanâs EM fields.. both flooding with love but also a bit of teasing thrown in there. As their human snuggles close.
And they would be super gushy in the inside while trying to stay professional while during their missions or meetings with other bots and such⊠dunno⊠something cute and fluff and such to think bout!
UwU
My mind has been plagued by Roddy all week so he's getting all the loving today.
It varies of course. Some will get grouchy and grumble, some will explode on the spot cause wowee that was out of nowhere! Others will be like ewwww, cooties jokingly ofc and the few is melting like goo.
With Rodimus though, I feel like it's a mixture of 'oh my primus what do i do? how do i handle this? do i try to be smooth? do i kiss them back?' and just wanting to melt into a puddle. This big flaming red hot mess of a mech has severe insecurity issues. It's no joke that he does have self-worth problems, PTSD plus depression smacked on top of that.
How does one live up to expectations when he feels like he should be punished? There's no surprise that this mech does feel deeply out of everybody around him. He cares and he loves but sometimes, when he hurts somebody/messes up/lost some of his crew. It messed with him so bad that he just shuts down and destroys stuff. In a way, he's kind of like a people pleaser sorta. He's lonely and he feels lonely. Roddy is a very complex character of course. Really didn't like how he was being used as a comedy scapegoat in LL/MTME though I digress.
Either way, he feels like he's not worthy of your love. You did have a sit down with him to remind him that love is not something you can measure nor earn. It is a birthright for all beings. That your kisses are not something you do out of pity. You do it because you love him for him. Man, this is kind of getting angsty, lemme fix that. MY B. THIS WAS SUPPOSED TO BE CUTE.
All in all, just feeling so much love pour out of you makes him feel like he's transcending past all planes and realms. It seeps into his plating, into his mesh and wires before settling deep into him. Rodimus appreciates you all the same and even reciprocates it. You're just so darn cute and patient with him. Here! have all the kisses!
Iâm sure this is a very common take, but I havenât had any motivation to write fandom stuff lately, so I wanted to get this little bit down while I had the inspiration
â
Being the human partner of a Cybertronian, any Cybertronian really, and turning this huge, hulking, intimidating bot into a giant mechanical cat with some gentle touches, some kisses, and sweet words. Standing on your botâs shoulder, gently stroking a hand over their cheekplate, and listening to that earthshaking rumble of their engine as they purr. Your bot gently nudging you with their cheek or nose when you stop, silently insisting the continued touch and affectionate words. Your bot mass displacing and crawling into your bed, arranging pillows on your lap before laying their head down and promptly falling into a well deserved recharge. (Letâs pretend that they wouldnât shatter the bed frame just by putting a little weight on it, lmao-) Your bot trying to teach you chirolinguistics, not realizing that you donât have the same kinds of sensors in your palm as they do, leaving you incredibly confused. Your bot relishing in the tiny flickers of unabashed emotion they get from your very weak organic EM field. Singing softly to your bot, only for them to croon one of their favorite Cybertronian tunes right back, and the both of you giggling over just how vastly different your music is from each otherâs. Your bot trying to teach you the Cybertronian language, and you trying to teach them about human art/literature/philosophy/etc. You and your bot being soft and cute and fluffy. Send tweet đââïžđš

I hope you donât mind me tagging you, but youâre the one who motivated me to get back into writing!!! This lil drabble certainly isnât my best work, but itâs the most Iâve done in awhile, haha @revelboo
I can see Rodimus and his Conjunx being pretty obsessed with each other, especially early on in the relationship. That one post where you said he'd want to see his spouse again after only a few hours just kinda reminded me of that scene with Gomez and Morticia Addams of all things
"How long has it been since we last waltzed?"
"Oh, Gomez... Hours~."
Roddy and Conjunx probably knowingly annoy the hell outta everyone with how lovey-dovey they are lol
đȘ (<- shanix for my thots)
looks around, slowly takes the shanix and hands you the goods.
They're SICKENING. So stinking cute together it gives everybody a rash on their ass. I love characters that are similar in a way like Rodimus. A sunshine to others yet a raincloud to themselves.
Imagine his surprise that he gets a bombardment of a gift from the universe in the form of a conjunx. Of course, no relationship is easy as it takes some time to truly get the hang of the other. After some hiccups here and there, he's the literal equivalent to Gomez in a way, of course, he'll never top the true king of romance but he sure does seem on par in a way.
"Oh, sorry guys, my conjunx was calling for me. I'll be back later."
He never came back later. He was happily snoozing and smooching his conjunx, thank you very much. It does irritate some people but they can't deny the fact of how happy their captain is. Just don't neglect your duties, please.
Oh? You're getting all dolled up for him? He's placing kisses against your hand, arm up to your neck before repeatedly kissing your cheek then devouring your lips. It might get a little steamy and you might've been late to your date but hey! who says you can't reschedule?
Hot take btw, he's def a smooth, sweet talker in bed. Of course, he learned how to get better at it but he's a fuckin menace of a mech when he became a pro. Had you squealing and feeling high on cloud nine.
Robert who straightens up and chokes back a moan when you, by complete accident, brush your fingers up his neck. You were trying to get out of the way of a Sonar-related wrestling match in the break room and your grip slipped off the back of his chair.
Because of the commotion, only you heard it.
And he knows you heard it, with that wide eyed stare you cast down on him. He's shifting his eyes from you to the wall looking like he wishes he could die. "Rob--"
"No," he says, quickly, quietly. Please don't draw attention to this, he begs with his eyes.
Okay, you think. But you squint playfully at him. You're telling me later.
"I did not know that would. Feel so." He clears his throat. "It was, uh."
You're both alone, now. He can say it, nobody's around. But he can't. You've never seen him blush before. He leans on the barrier that borders SDN's roof, propped on his elbows. It's dark by now, everyone's left. Maybe the security camera is the problem? Did it even record sound?
"Can you do it again?"
"I don't really know what I did," you admit, watching him shrink a little.
But you reach over anyway, and he tenses. Touch a single fingernail to the base of his neck, and drag it up towards his hairline. A gasp leaves the man. His skin draws tight around goosebumps. He visibly shudders. And then his head drops between his arms, nearly going boneless with a groan.
"Fuck," he slurs. "It's -- I know this sounds. It's not a sexy thing it's just." He stops. Like he isn't sure it's not anymore. Robert shifts a little, almost oddly. Squirming in his skin. The most sinful moan slipping out when you do it again. He damn near crumples into a pile. You giggle.
"That much tension?"
"Ionno, isso relaxing..." He sounds like he's drooling.
That's how you wound up in his apartment.
You are certain this will end with both of you naked, but for now, he's whining and unable to keep his eyes open. You're sitting on his ass, lightly running your nails up and down his back, along his sides, his neck. Into his hair. Across his arms. He looks like he's about to sink into the floor clean through his mattress.
"Haaahgod," he mumbles with intense effort. "Thfuck did you do to me?"
You want to ask him when the last time he's been touched at all was. But the evidence is clear. "Want me to get your legs?"
Definitely not so you can ogle his ass.
"Hoooh man I never. Thoughta that. Plss."
That marked the first, but not even close to the last time you took off Robert's pants.
How they react to you being disrespected by Cybertronians.

First Aid
⊠ââ This sweet medibot has seen some things as of late, and he's got three hundred and thirty-two logs of pure inspiration on how to show someone a world of hurt.
⊠ââ Unfortunately, he has to stick to imagining beating the slag out of whoever insulted you. If he did act on his impulses, he'd also be the one fixing them, and that sounded unappealing.
⊠ââ But he will fire back at them verbally and show you that you're worth defending with his words. How someone can look down on you, such a talented human who fits right in with the team, is beyond him.
⊠ââ When that bot next enters the medibay for treatment, he is ready for his less...ethical payback. Oh, did that hurt? It's only a pinch; no need to be dramatic about it (he totally made it hurt).
⊠ââ May or may not have sneakily switched their F.I.M. chip so next time they go for a drink, they don't feel the effects of it. Petty, but at least they'll waste one night and a few shanix on nothing. It's an easy fix, anyhow.
"You didn't!"
You were giggling beside his keyboard, laughing as he slipped his mischievous deed to you.
"That sounds like a gross instance of medical malpractice, Aid." Despite the teasing tone, you were still grinning wide.
He leaned his helm in closer, optics looking around in a mock attempt to ensure the area was clear before he whispered.
"Keep it between us. I'll flip his chip back when he returns."
It was worth it, seeing you smile after you'd been so down about the bot's comment.
Rodimus
⊠ââ Critique him for being captain all you want; he can laugh it off or rage about it alone where no one can know it affected him in the first place. But insult you?
⊠ââ Immediately at Magnus levels of upset. Yeah, calling you any variety of names or doubting you should be punishable by several cycles in the brig. Of course he can't, no matter how much he wants to.
⊠ââ But he is the king of smack talking. He is on them about every little insecurity they do or should have. What's that? Want to speak up about his favourite little human? Could have sworn he heard the same mech that nearly pissed himself last mission saying something about you.
⊠ââ They earn themselves a spot at the top of his shit list. Left out of more fun missions, forced into the nasty ones, whatever makes him feel better. He won't tell you, but he'll make sure you find out all the funny details that paint them in a bad light.
⊠ââ Is he going too far? In his humble opinion, it isn't far enough. But this will just have to do. Whatever sets the precedent on how to treat his human right, then so be it.
"âaint is all scratched, and it's going to take hours to buff! I hate these stupid missions." The seething bot walking past you and Rodimus barely spared you a glance.
Their paint was scratched clean off with several deeper lacerations. They seemed to be returning with a group of other bots who'd gone to the planet below to handle a skirmish.
At least this time they hadn't said anything rude about you.
"Can't believe they were that damaged from such a simple mission. Should have sent someone who knows what they're doing, huh? Bet you could have done a better job." Rodmus grinned, tilting his head towards where you sat on his shoulder.
"You're just saying that to flatter me." Your hands came up to playfully smack the part of his helm getting too close for comfort.
"Is it working?"
Shockwave
⊠ââ Insults were not unusual. Any human amongst the Decepticons could brush them off. Nicknames that painted you in a dehumanizing light weren't much of a threat, anyhow. You'd learned to accept them.
⊠ââ Shockwave never seemed troubled by them, either. Not that you expected him to. You were capable of handling yourself; he'd picked you as his lab assistant for a reason.
⊠ââ It is one comment from Knockout that stirs a reaction out of the scientist, though you'd tuned it out. It was hard to ignore the aftermath of Shockwave practically slamming what he was holding down.
⊠ââ Not the kind to outright attack, but his ability to intimidate is next only to Megatron himself. No one wants to be on the bitter end of his malice.
⊠ââ And malice it is indeed. For what little Shockwave expresses of himself, he is clear and concise when it comes to your importance to his research. By extension, importance to him.
"You would be of far better use to me if you knew when to withhold your unnecessary comments, doctor." The scientist had turned towards Knockout, taking one heavy step in his direction.
You watched in awe.
"Right, yes, of course. I just thought a Cybertronian might be of more help." Knockout's hands were waving in front of him, trying to defuse the situation.
"You have not only thought wrong but also insulted my choice-making. My assistant is most valuable to our cause and has the highest projected success rate."
Knockout stood frozen.
"You are dismissed, Knockout."
Soundwave
⊠ââ Fortunately for you, your acceptance by Soundwave meant very little was said about your human qualities. The Vehicons weren't troubled by your presence, and Megatron had better things to do than complain about the organic who'd done more for him than Starscream.
⊠ââ But that was exactly the issue. You'd earned more respect as a fleshling than Starscream did as the second in command. Anytime he saw you on your own, he'd manage to slip a hurtful comment to you.
⊠ââ It'd be stupid to bring it up to Soundwave. The third in command was busy. But Soundwave captures all, and the first time he catches one of those comments? Well, he would hate to break command, so instead he's going to make the SIC's life a living hell.
⊠ââ Recommending Megatron send him for missions Soundwave knows the mech would hate. Sending portals in just a bit too late, so the mech gets a few more hits from the bots. Being far less lenient to Starscream's demands of him.
⊠ââ And if Soundwave is anything, he is persistent. He will not let up until Starscream is begging for him to stop. Lord knows Screamer takes forever to get over his own ego, too, so it lasts a damn long time.
"Apologize to the human!? Have you lost your damned mind?" Starscream was seething, sharp nail pointing at you as if he wanted to skewer you.
Soundwave nodded his helm once, replaying the audio recording of his insult to you.
When the TIC refused to back down, Starscream grumbled before crouching closer to you.
"Human... I am sorry you felt bad about what I saidâ" He scrambled away when Soundwave's tendril shot toward him in threat, a squeal escaping him.
"I'm sorry, okay! I'm sorry!"
Vortex
⊠ââ If it's one of the guys making a comment about you that he doesn't like? They're breaking out into a semi-serious fistfight that has no clear victor.
⊠ââ The Combaticons do respect you more than they would any human, hence the kinder beating. Usually it's Brawl making the comments. Vortex has no idea Brawl apologizes to you in private and is only doing it for the fight.
⊠ââ If it is literally anyone else, some no-name con or, god forbid, a bot? Fucking hell. They are in for a world of pain. Vortex needs an excuse to fight, and this just gave him one.
⊠ââ You have to watch. He is doing this for you, so sit back and enjoy. Whatever bot just insulted you is getting sliced, thrown, and beaten till they're on the brink of death.
⊠ââ Would go further, but he kind of wants them to live in fear of you. Yes. Spread the word that any comments about his lovely little human will result in great bodily harm. It gets his engines revving and his rotor blades perked up.
"Did you see that? Cracked his visor right into his optics! Medics 'll be picking little fragments out of there for hours." Vortex was carrying you in energon-stained servos.
He was in surprisingly good shape considering the size of the bot he just took down. You were certain he took some of those hits on purpose, for the thrill of the pain.
"Thank you, 'Tex."
"Huh?" His lips finally stopped moving, gleaming red visor tilting down to get a good look at you.
"For defending me. Thank you."
"Well, someone's gotta."
Author's Note ââ Oh my lovely bots and cons, how I cherish them... TF requests are open!
Lately I've been unable to stop thinking about Cybertronians being comforted by us.
-
Your metal friend is upset. Their giant frame looms over you even as they sit balled up next to you, yet they've never looked smaller. There's something oddly human about how they sniffle into their knees. It tugs on your heart strings in a familiar way, much like how you'd feel around another human if they were crying.
You've seen other Cybertronians comfort one another after battles; but they either speak in their mother tongue or they don't speak at all, which probably means they're communicating through their EM fields or comming each other. Still, you're determined to help.
Shuffling closer, you embrace around a section of your friend's giant forearm and lean your head against the cool metal. Just like you would with a fellow human (minus the metal). Their plating shudders lightly in response and you nuzzle closer, shutting your eyes as you try to give the best hug you can right now.
Unbeknownst to you - as you have no control over it - your EM field hugs them alongside you. A powerful, vibrant wave of understanding despite not being able to communicate in half the ways Cybertronians can. Who knew so much care and compassion could be loaded into such a small, fleeting creature?
It almost makes your buddy want to cry more, out of relief this time. You might not be able to understand them completely, but you're here and you love them so deeply. It's hard for them to convince themselves they don't deserve it when your care is so intense.
Hi, I have been reading what you write and it's not fair you write Hades characters so excellently, if you don't mind, could you write a Zagreus x reader with a male or neutral gender reader? It's fine if you don't I just want you to know how BEAUTIFULLY you write him
Aww, thank you sm!!! ^^ for whatever reason Zag is the easiest Hades character for me to write lol? Anyway, here you go, hope you like it!
Zag's behavior won't really change much regardless of your gender. Tbh, i don't even think he goes for gendered pet names? I think he's more of a babe & honey kinda guy. I think the only thing that would change is an occasional greeting of "hey there, handsome" vs "hey there, beautiful"
Speaking of beautiful, Zag thinks you're absolutely gorgeous. Like, he cannot keep his eyes off you. He's prone to staring at you fondly and absolutely love-struck, completely oblivious to anything else. Once he was watching you so intently that he ran into a pillar and gave himself a bloody nose. Fuck, he was so embarrassed. It didn't help that Persephone saw him do it and immediately ran over to fuss over him. He had to go hide in his room for like three days after that. Achilles still teases him about it lmao
His love language is gift-giving and acts of service! So he's bringing you lots and lots of stuff all the time :D gems and nectar and ambrosia and he'll even try to make it to Persephone's garden so he can bring you some flowers! (He never makes it that far alas đ) he's also constantly commissioning stuff to make your life easier/better. He gets sad if you ask him to stop. He just wants to pamper you :( and he's got all these gems anyway, look at them, they're just gathering dust, c'mon you're doing him a favor really (just let him buy you things or you'll hurt poor Zag's feelings </3)
You can make him blush so so so easily. Compliment him or give him a gift and he's internally squealing and kicking his feet. He'll try to deflect the compliments back on you, but keep going! Call him handsome or clever or brave and he has to immediately find some excuse to leave because he's so flustered. "I... erm... I have to... I just remembered that Cerberus needs to walk! I mean, I have to walk him! Okaygoodtalkbye!" He's never walked Cerberus in his life đ€Šââïž
Insists on a kiss for good luck every time he goes out on an attempt. And what are you gonna do? Say no?? To his cute li'l face???
Maybe Robertson x reader, reader sees her Robert all tired and looking like hell (bro looks like a small stretch can cause every bone to crack very concerningly) reader decides to give him a whole self-care weekend like masks and massages that heâs just on cloud nine, weekends over that SDN just notices he looks alive and smells like cucumber that they are lowkey asking for readers help.
Yessss this was so adorable!! I hope you like it! â€ïž

The soda on the table is dripping in condensation, and the popcorn beside it makes the whole apartment smell like a movie theatre. Your eyes fight to stay open, and youâve been yawning too much. Your limbs ache from all the superhero-ing you had to do, from teaching kids first aid, to beating up a kaiju downtown, the whole week just piled on you, from one call to the next, you feel like your batteries are drained.
To add salt to your wound, you absolutely miss Robert.
Yawning for the umpteenth time, the crappy reality TV you put on doesnât even help you stay awake anymore. Youâd crawl in bed but you want to wait for Robert to get home when you feel like you havenât seen him in ages. The only times that the two of you have crossed paths this week can be counted in one hand. Whenever youâd kiss him goodbye while heâs still half asleep, and when heâd greet you with a kiss when youâre already deep into slumber. Your schedules havenât matched up as well as before with the amount of work the two of you had to do. If youâre not at home, he is, but when youâre home, heâs out there burning the midnight oil with the Z-team. Forget meeting up for lunch at work either when your breaks donât match with his.
But now that itâs the weekend, youâre both free to see each other, hopefully more of each other.
Your hearing picks up the sound of keys outside and you immediately perk up with a smile. As if you were jolted with lightning, youâre vaulting over the couch and towards him in the speed that even Chase would be proud of.
The second the door opens, Robert is met with your smiling face, like a golden retriever, whoâs excited to see him home.
âHi.â Tilting his head, Robert smiles softly at you, feeling that youâre practically vibrating from the longing, waiting for his go signal. âCâmere.â He opens his arms and youâre immediately right on him like velcro. âMissed me?â
âDo you even have to ask?â You say whilst peppering his face with kisses. âI feel like I havenât seen you in ages.â
âFuck,â his facade falls as he drops his bag and keys onto the floor, arms patting the back of your leg as he tells you to hop and wrap yourself around him. You do as youâre asked without a second thought as he kicks the front door closed. He canât ignore the fact that he heard his knees creak when he carried you, but if you did hear it, you didnât say a word. But you did hear it though. âI missed you.â
Your back meets with the wall, his hand tucked in between your head and the hard wall, acting like a cushion to shield you. âI missed you tooâ wait, whereâs beef?â
Robert clings to your warmth and the cucumber scent of your soap as he inhales deeply atop your neck. âWith Chase.â Voice muffled, he tilts your head up with a nudge of his nose on your throat as you comply happily and give him space. âI figuredâŠâ his lips peck you sweetly, teeth grazing your skin, tongue brushing along your pulse point. âThat we need alone time.â
âAnd youâre absolutely right.â Sighing with longing, your fingers dig into his hair as you push him impossibly close against you. Pulling his hair back to kiss him, you meet with his glossy eyes, cheeks flushed, mouth agape as he heaves and waits for your next move. And yet, you find his tired eyes and blanched face worrisome. âHave you eaten anything yet?â
âDoes half a granola bar and three cups of coffee count?â He jokes, but you donât find the humour in it when he tries to lean into your lips only for you to tug at him back. Robert would let out a satisfied hum if not for the worried look in your eyes. âSweetheart, Iâm fine, itâs just been a busy day. Fuck, I just need you, pleaseââ
âWhat you need is food.â Unwrapping your legs around him, you stand and peck his cheek with a promise. While he looks utterly disappointed, like you dangled a candy bar to his face only to yank it back. âAnd sleep.â Brows furrowed, you wince at the heavy dark bags under his eyes. âAnd moisturizer. Lots of it.â
âAm I that crusty?â He chortles, hands still on your hips, thumbs pushing aside the waistband cheekily, waiting for you to change your mind.
âNo,â you shake your head with a gentle smile. Taking his wrists away and pecking his knuckles. âJust a bit, come on, Iâll warm your food.â
âIâm really fineââ
âItâs lasagna.â
He doesnât even contemplate or protest some more as he gratefully follows after you in the kitchen.
â
His stomach is so full of pasta and cheese that he could barely stand up from his seat. You went somewhere else while he was unbuttoning his pants to give him some breathing room. Robert signs in content, a hand wrapped around a glass of wine, that he doesnât even know he had in the apartment, as his nails click against the glass rhythmically.
Robert hears the faucet squeak, and the sound of running water, as he tilts his head to take a peek inside the bathroom. He swears that you already took a bath judging from your still damp hair and the scent of the cucumber and citrus soap on your skin when he got home.
You feel his eyes on your back whilst you pour bubble bath inside the tub. âThisâll only take a minute, babe.â
âTake all the time you need.â Ogling you unabashedly, Robert smiles as you twist your hand back to flip him the bird playfully as if you have eyes on the back of your head. âThose shorts look good on you.â
âTheyâre your boxers.â Your voice bounces off the tiles, grabbing a clean fluffy robe from the cabinets, the same one that is all pink and girly that Chase gifted to Robert as a gag gift for his birthday. It even has his name bedazzled on the back like heâs some Victoriaâs secret model.
Robert usually loves seeing you use it, especially when it has his name right on your back. But he canât lie when he occasionally uses it to feel how soft it is after a shower.
âEverything looks good on you, sweetheart.â He watches you with a fond smile, eyes glimmering with want as you saunter out of the bathroom with the bathrobe in tow.
âYouâre not getting lucky tonight until youâre properly taken care of.â Opening the robe and showing him how fluffy it is, you smile over it, wiggling your brows. âTake your clothes off. After this Iâm putting a face mask on you and lathering you up in my finest lotion.â
âCan I suggest one thing though?â
âOf course.â
âHow about a massage too?â He asks innocently, but you just know from the glint in his eyes and the slight smirk on his lips that itâs not so innocent.
âIf you donât fall asleep before then, sure.â You lean against the doorframe casually, acting nonchalant from his proposition and hugging the towel. Youâre not the best at massages, but youâll try your best, or at least for a minute or so before he pulls you on his lap instead. Or fall asleep the moment you squeeze his aching muscles.
Heâs already stripping his clothes off with excitement. Starting from unbuttoning his work shirt that has become associated with your boyfriend. The colour does suit him though, but youâd rather see him wear something else that doesnât smell like day old coffee.
You donât notice him walking closer and closer to you whilst youâre utterly fixated to his bare torso.
âCalm down, Robert, this is for relaxingââ youâre suddenly lifted off the ground, finding that Robert has you over his shoulder, smacking your behind as he takes you to the bathroom. For someone who has only eaten a granola bar and inhaled three cups of caffeine today, heâs stronger than he looks. Maybe this is what people say when it comes to adrenaline, this is his lifting the car moment. âRobert!â
âWhat? If Iâm going to relax then so will you.â He says casually, entering the steaming bathroom as he kicks the door shut with his foot.
Your squeals echo around the tiled walls, as Robertâs amused laughter mingles with the sound of splashing water and the towel landing right over his face.
The bathroom is quickly flooded with bubbles and sweet scented soap, and you find yourself back in the bath once again with him joining you.
â
The hair dryer blows hot air right at his silky tresses, now free from oil and whatever Golem accidentally spilled on him during his lunch break. Robert sits in between your legs, back pressed against your front, and eyes closed as the hot air flutters his lashes. He looks utterly blissed out, smelling like a bed and body works. Heâs absolutely content in your arms as you gently rake the comb through his hair.
He has a face mask on, âitâs aloe vera,â you said, he doesnât care whatever it is but itâs doing wonders to him. Itâs like having a slice of frozen ham slapped right on your face minus the smell but with twice the cooling effect.
Robert feels fucking amazing.
His palms cup around your knees, thumbs drawing small gentle circles all over your well moisturized skin. The two of you smell incredibly good, enough to eat, and heâd kiss every bit of your skin if he wasnât so sleepy.
Robert could sleep right there and then, he would, if not for the loud whirr of the hair dryer and the hot air blowing right at his head.
âYou okay?â You whisper to the shell of his ear, gooseflesh immediately rises on his arms as he hums a reply. The hair dryer shuts off, and he could feel sleep take him. âI guess youâre too tired for massages.â
His eyes suddenly open at the speed of light. âNo, Iâm not.â
âReally?â Your hands knead at his arms tenderly, like youâre massaging herbs and spices onto a slab of beef. You truly have no idea what youâre doing, but it seems that Robert loves it. âLet me take care of you this time, okay?â
He would be on his knees begging for it if he wasnât already in bed. Eyes gazing up at you sweetly, Robertâs brows furrow, lips pouting slightly as he lets out a sound from the back of his throat that is akin to a whine. âPlease.â
âAnything for my Robert.â With a smile, fingers grasping at his chin, you lean down to press a saccharine kiss on his forehead, one of many for tonight.
â
âSo I said to him, go suck a fatâ what the fuck is that?â Sonar looks perturbed, eyes wide and staring at something, or someone that just walked through the door.
Malevola follows his line of sight, gasping at the sight, almost stumbling over herself. âWhat happened to you?â She asks, almost disturbed by the sight.
Chase hears the commotion from the bullpen, he peeks over the breakroom doorway and sees Robert walk in normally. âWhat the fuck are you two gawking at?â He asks, walking closer to the pair as he holds onto his cup of coffee.
âThat!â Mal takes his head and turns him to face Robert.
âHoly shitâŠâ he utters, spluttering out his coffee all over Sonarâs suit, earning an intense bat screech from the man bat that is quickly ignored by the others, who are completely perplexed at the sight in front of them. âAlright, who died?â
Robert makes a face, nose scrunched as he places his things on his table. âNo one? Why do you all look at me like I just killed someone right in front of you?â
âYeah, you killed Robert Robertson.â Chase sidles beside him, leaning against his table with suspicion in his eyes. âWhy do you look like that?â
âLike what?â The dispatcher asks, lashes fluttering on the apples of his pinkish cheeks, looking healthy and glowing.
His lips shine with raspberry chapstick, and the dark circles underneath his eyes are almost non-existent, as if he made a deal with the devil to get rid of it and make him look ten years younger. The best part is the soft smile that is seemingly permanently etched on his face that remains even when he almost got a face full of Waterboyâs water splashed on him when he first walked inside the building.
âYou look like how a skin walker would wear Robertâs skin.â Sonar says, leaning close to his face to examine him further. When he tries to poke him with his claw, Robert pushes him away with a grimace.
Robert rolls his eyes, he does feel rejuvenated, almost reborn from your pampering. Throughout the whole weekend, you took your pledge to heart, you did not let him lift a finger, and the two of you spent the whole weekend in bed together. Eating meals on it, catching up on your shows whilst cuddling underneath the covers while the blackout curtains are completely covering the light outside. Not to mention the âstrenuous exercisesâ that you two did together. It was absolute bliss, and Robert almost did not go to work today to extend the peace.
âYou look good, buddy.â Malevola is the first to compliment him with a friendly clasp on his shoulder.
âSmells good too.â Sonar adds, taking a whiff of him. âLooking too good. Which way is the fountain of youth? Chase could use it.â He teases before chuckling at his own joke.
Chase punches him right in the gut, making him curl around himself with a sharp inhale through his nose. The others act like this is a normal occurrence in the office.
âSeriously though, what products did you use? I could use a good under eye mask.â Mal pulls down at her under eye for emphasis. âWhatâs your secret?â
Robert shrugs with a knowing smile. âGet the best girlfriend in the whole damn world.â The chorus of groans echo around the office that has him smiling in satisfaction.
