Works:

Growing Pains:

Description: Nightingale was just a young seeker when Soundwave took him in, and it wasn't long after the war had started when he was also taken under the literal and metaphorical wings of Starscream. All seemed well, but a cybertonian war isn’t really the best place to grow up—being torn away from his friends, slowly losing the little bits of family he has left, never really knowing who he can trust, and to top it all off, dying in an incident with an experimental portal that left him with powers unlike anyone on Cybertron had ever seen.

🌸Some old sketches I did of Nightingale meeting the HTN crew way back when we where first discussing the idea for this fic, thought I’d share (pls excuse the quality and any spelling mistakes xD)

Nightingale is mentally like 5 or 6, so he’s really just a giant metal baby the trio have adopted as their little brother here and I love them.🌸

Ng: You’re surprisingly good at this for a squishy…

Danny: Thanks, I learned from Star.

Ng: Me too!

-

Ng: (Very much enjoying being the tallest)

Tucker: Woah! He’s huge!

Danny: Heheh

Tucker: I wonder what they look like on the inside…

Danny: TUCKER!

Tucker: Never mind never mind… sorry

-

Sam: (Insert rant about carbon emissions left by jets)

Ng: She knows I run on energon, right? … Right?

Tucker: Settle in kid, this is a long one.

Danny: *Sigh*

-

Ng: Soundwave! Can I-

Sw: No.

Ng: Aw…

Danny: Hey Soundwave 👋

-

Ps- Yes. Ng’s collecting them like Pokemon ✨

Hello hi I love your DPxTF crossovers and I’m here to inquire if you know of any other aus for me to consume 👀👀👀👀

I do indeed! @thegatorsgoose and @thegatorsgoose just started working on our new series, 'Forged In Death,' which is a Cybertronian Danny AU inspired by Haunting the Nemesis and will have a lot of tie-ins later on!

It will also be coming with a lot of art, and there are even some animations already being worked on XD

More updates will be coming out in the summer, and after I finish Haunting the Nemesis, when we have more time to write, but it will be a big series that I am very excited to work on!!

We have the first chapter up of 'Growing Pains', which is the first work of the series already, and that comes with two artworks and a full Podfic!

I honestly think this series will be just as big as Haunting the Nemesis by the time we are done with it! So go check it out if you get the chance! <3

Summary:

Nightingale was just a young seeker when Soundwave took him in, and it wasn't long after the war had started when he was also taken under the literal and metaphorical wings of Starscream. All seemed well, but a cybertonian war isn’t really the best place to grow up— being torn away from his friends, slowly losing the little bits of family he has left, never really knowing who he can trust, and to top it all off, dying in an incident with an experimental portal that left him with powers unlike anyone on Cybertron had ever seen. Why does this kind of stuff always happen to him?

And it comes with a podfic which you can watch/listen to here:
