Windblade is the Mother Hen in the Dratchblade throuple, she’s a doted mother figure to Roxie whom she never had. Windblade had grown attached to her conjunx’s Kindred since they joined the Decepticons and tended to fuss over her after Roxie’s near-death experience being infected with Dark Energon and had a Greatsword plunged into her spark.
Windblade bears the burden of being the last surviving Cityspeaker, she understood Roxie’s difficulties with her hearing impairment making her feeling isolated amongst the crew for being the only deaf cybertronian. It was disheartened for Windblade to see her shying away but she made sure to ensure Roxie’s wellbeing and stability. Roxie was socially anxious and skittish around strangers or big crowds and she made sure to stick close to her adoptive family who were close to her Sire.
Windblade’s maternal protocols activated after the two bonded for couple of months on the ship, she never thought she would have a family of her own after her fellow cityspeakers were disposed by Emperor Tyrest. She does not like the thought of leaving Roxie alone on the ship before a critical mission, she mentioned in passing to Elita about taking her along for scout missions as a family outling than being cooped up (even though said scout mission turned into critical mission).
Windblade loved playing with Roxie’s hair and learnt how to braid them, thanks to Deadlock, and she helped dyed her synethic hair to a dark red colour (mainly because of The List made by the Autobot Justice Division). She enjoyed indulging in late night talks with Roxie.
anyways, this was needed because I was feeling down from my minor vent today.
