Okay I know Thunderhoof's alt mode is just a normal tractor and not a skid steer but the concept was too good to pass up on it was RIGHT THERE

Thunderhoof gets a redemption arc for Uprooted. By that I mean Steeljaw crashes out so hard after Sharpclaw’s death, the whole Pandora terrocon dark energon zombies mess that’s happening, and honestly moral stuff after so long since backstory wise I’m taking the fact he even had the knowledge to know what parts were needed for a space bridge of him wanting to be an engineer but due to how things were back then he fell deep into criminal stuff to be a mob boss

So when learning that basically they were meant to get true trials before the ship and bridge disaster happened, and actually realizing it was a for real deal, it puts a lot of his own crimes into perspective and what he’s doing now into perspective cause like, once with a clear mind, knowing that he wasn’t going to be executed if he went back to Cybertron, he could get an actual job and work with bridges for real without disrespect for being a ferrocon, and sure he’d still do some time in the slammer and heavy parole for the current stuff but compared to being frozen for years or killed if captured, …it’s better deal

Plus after awhile he realized that like the majority of the Bee team are fucking teenagers, he did not realize that most of the team which honestly isn’t even really a team more just collection of three adults with various levels of competence trying to keep these kids alive and mostly untraumatized. Like when you’re fighting someone, and you’ve been frozen for years so a lot of your identification systems like an energy field to detect age is wonky as hell. So it isn’t until you actually like straight up talk to the kid and realize that this asshole can’t even drink yet and should honestly in fucking school

So yeah Thunderhoof redemption cause like, he gets shot by the empathy gun after his leader’s crash out and realizing maybe I shouldn’t beat up kids and help them out with the demon zombies that are also running around

For a show that has 3 times as much villains as it does heroes you’d think I’d make one of these for them awhile ago the problem is I don’t care about any of them nearly as much as I do the main cast (if you couldn’t tell by my other posts)

The Cabin In A Field

➵Author: HI!! I hope you enjoy!! I liked writing this, even if my brain kinda fuzzed out towards the end!

➵Character(s): Thunderhoof

➵Type: fluff

➵Relationship: platonic. Thunderhoof got a crush

➵Reader Type: she/her, human

➵Summary: Thunderhoof passes (Y/N) everyday on his patrols, never stopping to talk to her. He finally gets the courage and tries to keep his cool

~✿✿✿~

Everyday Thunderhoof passes by the quaint little cabin, out in the open field, with the human femme at the same time each day. She’s always sitting there on the porch swing outside. The human always waves at him as he passes the cabin, zero fear evident on her face. He never returns the wave, just huffs and continues on his way, deciding the patrol was far more important. He doesn’t want Steeljaw on his aft about this.

Today was seemingly no different. As he nears the cabin he sees her there, swinging absentmindedly on the porch swing. She seemed bored as she was swinging, but upon spotting the giant mech, she visibly brightened and waves to Thunderhoof. However, instead of just continuing on with his patrol as usual, he stops and stares at the human.

The mech grumbles to himself for a moment before deciding he has nothing to lose and heads over to where the human sits. Her eyes widen in surprise for a moment before she waves, with much more excitement this time. Thunderhoof rolls his optics but crouches in front of the human.

“Wow!” the human gasps, staring at Thunderhoof in awe. “You’re much bigger up close!” She stands up from the porch swing, holding her hand out to touch the giant but stops when his optics narrow at her.

“Ayo, show a little respect here, squishy.” Thunderhoof almost feels bad with the way she drops her arm and pouts. He makes a motion towards himself, “I’m Thunderhoof, see? I ain’t somebody y’should be messin’ with, y’hear?”

“Well, Thunderhoof, I’m (Y/N)!” She holds her hand up once more, this time for a handshake. “I’m real excited to finally meet you! It’s not everyday you get to meet a giant robot!”

Thunderhoof considers, before pushing her hand down with a digit. She’s soft, he thinks. But he pushes that thought aside with a huff, “Cybertronian.”

“Pardon?” (Y/N) gives a polite smile, albeit looking a bit confused.

“Cybertronian. ‘S what I am.” He averts his gaze, trying to keep his cool and tough demeanor. “I ain’t a ‘giant robot’, I’m Cybertronian.”

“Oh! Okay. Okay, got it!” She moves forward and gives the giant mech a pat on his knee. “Thank you for informing me. I’d rather not offend you!” Thunderhoof turns a glare at her but it falters at her smile and her soft touch on him. He can practically feel his spark trying to beat its way out of its chamber. How dare a human make him feel this way. 

(Y/N) keeps her hand on his knee, but her head tilts at the obvious battle going on inside the mech’s processor. “Thunderhoof?” she speaks so softly, worried. “Did I say something wrong?”

Thunderhoof grumbles and gives a halfhearted glare to the human. “Y’better take yer hand off me, squishy, before I squish you. It’s what you humans are good for, afterall.” The mech huffs

(Y/N) takes her hand off Thunderhoof, raising both in defense. “Alright, alright! Boundaries, I get it.” She smiles softly at him, “I just wanted to make sure you were okay!”

The large mech stares at her, processor racing, before he stands up and crosses his arms. “Why aren’t’cha scared, human? I could easily squish you under pede.” He growls at her, trying to appear threatening. 

She shrugs, “There’s not much excitement out here. Besides, if you wanted to squish me, I’m sure you would’ve done it already!” She grins up at him, hands on her hips now.

Thunderhoof scoffs, trying to find a comeback, before simply grumbling as he can’t find one. He drops to sitting, causing (Y/N) to wobble from the rumble of him landing on the ground. Once she stabilizes, she has a cheshire grin, “I’m right, huh? You don’t have the heart to squish me!”

He glares at her, his faceplates flushing a light blue. “You better keep yer trap shut before I change my mind.” She shrugs, moving back to sit on the porch swing once more.

She seems more than content to sit in silence with Thunderhoof, using her foot to make the porch swing rock. Thunderhoof watches her as she picks up the book that was sitting next to her to read. His glare softens just a bit, faceplates still flushed.

Perhaps he can sit here for a while longer. Steeljaw can wait.
