I love your works and your interpretation of Hot Rod/Rodimus! I was wondering if you have any Roddy-centered fic recs, preferably not romance-focused?

thank you!! I try my best <3

ohhh hohohho you have come to the right place anon. PREPARE FOR FIC RECS

First stop: my AO3 bookmarks -> click

Adventure focus / endgame romance:

Prime Time - G1 time travel, endgame Arcee/Springer/Hot Rod

Sleep Well, Little Star - adorable Hot Rod G1 backstory, no ships

Half Of What You Think Of Me - Roddy gets yeeted into Shattered Glass, has a bad time, you can pinpoint the exact moment Deadlock's eyes widen and he goes 'whoagh'

Ghosts of Cybertron - G1 adventure fic

Kingdom Hearts: Cybertron G1 crossover ft. Roddy & Galvatron (no ships but I remain hopeful for rodgalv)

Meet in the Middle - IDW driftrod, long slowburn

Cassett(icon) - Cassetticon Roddy (no ships)

how quickly the night turns to dawn - messy feral hotlock (complimentary)

The Echo Garden - you are probably familiar with this one if you are on my blog but if not or you are due for a reread here you go :) long slowburn tfp Soundwave/mtmte Rodimus.

more romance/ship focused but i'm still rec-ing them and you can't stop me:

Price of Peace - rodistar

Amanesis - megarod ft. empurata megatron

Coffee as a Metaphor for Other Things - humanformers megarod

Ride Me Down Easy - IF YOU ONLY READ ONE THING FROM THIS LIST READ THIS ONE. TRUST.

The Legacy of Nyon - The One Rodiclash Fic I Like Because It Actually Takes Roddy Seriously

submerse - gorgeous merformers rodgalv

Countervail - Galvatron goes to shout at Primus to give Roddy back damn it

Fics with just enough Roddy as a side character to keep me on the hook:

The Crown of Cybertron (BABY RODDY)

Ninth (he shows up i promise)

Hold Them Tight (jazzprowl)

Starpath (jazzprowl, mecha pilot Jazz AU, Roddy is also there)

Welcome! Everything is fine. (The Good Place crossover ft. a delightful Starscream)

and there is no Roddy in this one BUT if you are in the transformers fandom, period, you should probably read it if you haven't already: Mistakes on Mistakes Until- (look out for the one (1) Nyon mention like 40 chapters in RODDY CONFIRMED REAL)

Drift: Hmmm Rodimus: Hmmm? Drift: Hmm. Hm. Rodimus: Hmmm Drift and Rodimus: (nodding at each other) Ultra Magnus: Do they understand each other? Ratchet: They share the same brain cell. Of course they understand each other.
