I can’t stop loving you

The scar that Megatron left, something that not even the matrix could heal, something that belonged only to them, was a thought that Optimus cherished dearly. Like a part of him will always belong to his champion.

Not like he’ll ever tell him that.

Let’s face it, they’re both obsessed with each other.

It's commonly accepted in this fandom that humans have extremely fragile bodies in comparison to Eridians, but I think that's actually an oversimplification.

Because while Eridians are incredibly strong and tough on the outside, on the inside they are actually quite fragile:

They have no immune system, so anything that makes it past their enclosed carapace and internal heating will pretty much kill them

They have no natural defenses to radiation of any kind

In general they have very little organic matter so anything that targets their cells directly is quickly lethal

They are partially cold-blooded and live at a very narrow temperature range (about 20 degrees C)

They rely almost entirely on one, highly developed sense and are helpless if deafened (can't even remember the layout of a room)

They are completely helpless while asleep and can't control when that happens

They will forcibly become dormant after eating AND when badly hurt enough (their equivalent of going into shock)

They require more energy to function than humans do, and have very little organic matter to burn in the case of starvation

In contrast, humans:

Have an aggressive immune system and internal mechanisms for dealing with cell damage

Have adrenaline which allows them to temporarily ignore injuries and perform abnormal feats of strength

Are persistence hunters built for economy of movement and capable of extreme levels of endurance

Exist in a very wide range of habitats and on a diverse diet

Are very hardy in general, able to survive massive injuries, lack of sleep, prolonged starvation, and intense environmental conditions if given proper care

The quintessential example of this dichotomy between strength and endurance is the Going Fishing incident in the book: Rocky is able to survive and move in G forces that are killing Grace and to physically wrestle off the chair crushing him, but he collapses from his injuries almost immediately after. Despite being injured himself Grace then carries his 400lb friend up a ladder, is badly burned returning him to his atmosphere, and then proceeds to get some basic medical care, hype himself up on pain meds and keep working (albeit rather badly, lol) while Rocky forcibly sleeps.

The TL:DR is that Eridians are harder to damage, but easier to kill. They're like an rpg character with high armor and low health. I think Rocky would consider Grace to be very delicate at first, only to be blown away by how deceptively tough his friend can be.

Stupid little headcanon of mine

Optimus is a European Semi truck, while Motormaster is an American one. All of you are probably like "...what?"

1. Compared to each other, American Semi's are built for long long road trips and carry tons of weight with torque(which can also be the reason Motormaster can bash concrete like nothing while OP can't) rather than speed. Resulting them in being bigger then their European counterpart

2. European semis are, for some reason, seen as more friendly than American ones. OP is all about being good and being seen as approachable, then there's Motors, the definition of mean.

3. I just think it'd be funny and Motormaster gets a new insult for Optimus; Flatface

Presenting to you: yet another strattland comic!! Aroallo grace and alloace stratt my most beloved of creatures!!!

I imagine once stratt gets comfortable enough to soften up around someone, she’s prone to crushes and desires for nonsexual intimacy (sex is fine, just kind of a chore) since it so rarely happens, and grace is an avid enjoyer of sex, but that’s really it. He doesn’t really assign any feelings to sex, so romantic relationships are largely uninteresting to him. She’s a stone top and HE is her pillow princess okay. I know this to be true.

I need a bot in stasis on earth to just like…die. I don’t mean this maliciously or anything, but I think going into stasis surrounded by organics should come with consequences, like how you’ll see abandoned buildings get reclaimed by plants or even have termites eat through actively lived in homes.

I need the Autobots or Decepticons to track down someone, who went into stasis on earth for the war, only to find fungi mycorrhiza clogging their Energon lines having consumed every drop. I need lichens, mosses, and ferns sprouting from their frame, slowly absorbing the micronutrients that leech off of them as bacteria and protists excrete acid to dissolve them microscopically. I need small detritivores like snails, isopods, and insects eating those plants and bacteria. I need a nest of mice hidden under their armour. I need a clutch of mysterious eggs safely nestled away in a burrow under their arm. I need the earth to completely and entirely reclaim them.

And the worst part, the worst part is that I need them to see that this was inevitable. I need them to see that they can clean them up, remove all the plants and debris, provide them with fresh Energon, and see how their very processor has been rusted and corroded

Everything but their spark is dead and consumed, and even that is barely holding on by a thread. They’re functionally a living corpse. At what point do you just let the wildlife take the rest of them? At what point do you wonder if their spark will even return to the allspark?

I need them to see that this will happen in every habitat across earth. Maybe not as fast. A rainforest is hungrier than a desert: but they’ll both eat you.

I need them to see that: even with Unicron locked away, asleep for millennia more, he will still consume them if they stay.

Everytime they see an organic from here on out, I need them to shiver

After the War AU

Megatron’s pov with dealing with Optimus’ self-sacrificing tendencies

I guess part 2 of this >> post

This happens sometime during the rebuilding of Cybertron. Things are still a bit unstable since both factions still don’t fully trust each other but are cooperating after Unicron’s defeat. Most of the high command in each factions had taken a role in some semblance of government to manage everything.

Enter finding Optimus in Unicron’s corpse.

Many were willing to follow Optimus when he returned but it was clear that his condition wasn’t very…stable to take on much work. But, he knew he had to take on the role as prime to stabilize any tension.

Which also meant that he had to work with Megatron, who he has appointed Lord High Protector. This ensures an equal standing on both leaders and a public statement that says “the war is over”

The only few times they ever get to speak is during meetings and even outside of work Megatron can clearly tell that Optimus is deliberately avoiding him.

Sneaking Out

~𖥔☾𖤓☽𖥔~

The party was beaming with energy and garishly decorated walls, asserting the status of their hosts. His optics could barely register the amount of decor hanging on every furniture.

The crowd buzzed with conversation, as high grade began to loosen everyone’s decorum. Optimus barely had any as everyone seemed determined to have a word with him about anything they can think of.

An envoy from a newer alliance has dedicated most of the evening... pursuing him in hopes of strengthening their diplomatic relations. This is certainly becoming more exhausting by the second.

Optimus immediately looked around for a reprieve, his optics landing on the red curtains covering the veranda.

Once he reached it, he scanned the courtyard, vying for any guards that might hinder his escape. He’ll definitely be reprimanded for this by his council tomorrow, but Optimus can only deal with so much mingling in a night.

Just as he was turning to leave, the Prime felt a presence, a servo hooked around his arm, pulling him into the shadows of the venue. He looked around to get a better view of his captor, and sighed in relief as familiar red optics welcomed him.

“There you are! Do you mind keeping me company?” Optimus casted a glance at the crowded building and back to the mech. “Better yet,” leaning closer with bubbling mischief, “aid me in my escape”.

Megatron stood there with a look that could only be described as fond exasperation.

Optimus was preparing to take back his offer when the faint glow of red optics caught his attention once more. "You're in luck, my Prime," he grumbled, a barely audible sound over the bustling scene, "I had the exact same thought".

Optimus let out a sharp vent of relief, tension visibly leaving his frame. "Then I suggest we move quickly. If the council catches wind of my disappearance, I'd be subjected to several more hours of diplomatic endeavours." His optics were downcast as another thought crossed his mind. "And if a certain mech catches me... I might be forced to consider marital alliances."

That caught Megatron's attention. His optics flared as he scanned the room for this supposed suitor. He caught himself just as quickly, suppressing the sudden bout of protectiveness in his spark. He had no right over Optimus, yet the mere thought of someone else claiming him still left a bitter taste on his glossa.

Collecting his composure, he turned back to Optimus with a smirk to mask his inner turmoil.

Megatron's engine revved with a low, amused thrum. "Ah, so the mighty Optimus prime can be daunted. It just takes a persistent suitor rather than a Decepticon warlord".

He stepped back and with a playful bow, gestured towards the trail leading to the main gates. "After you, then," his voice in a tone like a secret shared, "I'll happily be your accomplice, Prime. Consider it a rescue."

The teasing tone successfully brushed away any lingering tension between the two. Optimus, completely oblivious to the other's dilemma, only let out a soft chuckle.

"And so my fate shall rest with you, my Lord."

Megatron didn't answer right away. Instead, he extended a servo into the empty space between them. Optimus only paused for a second before placing his own into Megatron's open palm.

With a lingering gaze, the former Decepticon leader tightened his grip around the Prime's.

The two mechs hurriedly slipped into the shadows of the courtyard, leaving the drowning lights and sounds of chatter far behind them.

Even if it's just for a night.
