This scene is inspired by "The Little Mermaid " Originally published in 1837 by Danish author Hans Christian Andersen
I’m basing this moment on the one where Ariel makes a deal with Ursula. I think it’ll be a similar situation here with Blurr, when he exchanges his voice for mods and a chance to be added to the racing competition.
But anyway, there’s a small story for this. And don’t get used to it! XD This might be the only time you’ll ever read something like this from me
Within the dark cavern laboratory thrummed with the low, constant hum of hidden machinery. Bioluminescent crystals cast faint, sickly violet light across jagged walls and scattered data terminals. Blurr hung suspended high above the cold rocky floor, his frame thoroughly entangled in Shockwave’s extendable treaded appendages.
The segmented, flexible treads had coiled and woven themselves tightly around his arms, legs, and torso, lifting him with effortless mechanical precision. He couldn’t see the face -only the single glowing red orb somewhere in the upper shadows and the two enormous claws that dominated his entire field of vision.
One claw was wrapped firmly around his waist, the broad, sharp digits completely engulfing his midsection and holding him in place like he weighed nothing. The other claw hovered near his faceplate, it's movements slow and deliberate as it gestured.
Shockwave’s voice emerged from the darkness- calm, flat, echoing slightly off the cavern walls.
“So… you wish to become a racer.”
Blurr’s voice came out small and timid, strained by the treads constricting his frame.
“Y-yes…”
“Then a payment is required.”
Blurr’s optics widened. He tried to shift in the grip, but the treads only tightened in warning.
“B-but I don’t have any credits, or—”
“I am not interested in credits,” Shockwave interrupted smoothly. The hovering claw extended a digit and pointed directly at Blurr’s throat, the tip stopping just short where his voice box should be.
“That rapid, overclocked little audio emitter of yours that you dub a vocalizer will suffice..."
Blurr’s gaze locked onto the claw. He could feel the digit’s tip in the air near his neck. His spark pulsed harder than it should have against his chest plates.
He gulped.
Shockwave continued without pause, the claw around his waist giving a possessive squeeze.
“In exchange, I will grant you the frame modifications required to compete at the highest levels. Optimized pedes. Enhanced speed systems beyond anything a courier could achieve.
As I am… proficient with such networks, I can also ensure your designation is added to the official racer registry. No questions. No scrutiny. You will have your chance at the big leagues.”
The digit remained pointed at him for a long moment.
“However,” Shockwave went on, tone never shifting from calm logic, “there is one condition if you wish to retain this new form and status permanently. You must secure a spark-mate from among those who inhabit the race field. Not merely any bond... a true sparkmerge born of genuine affection. Should you fail to achieve this by the conclusion of the racing season… your frame, your spark, and everything I have granted you will belong to me.”
The words hung in the air between them. The only sounds were the quiet whir of the treads and the distant drip of energon.
Blurr trembled in the grip. His mouth opened, then closed. He looked at the claw near his face, then down at the one wrapped so completely around his waist. Desperation warred with fear across his faceplates.
“…I agree,” he whispered.
The claw near his throat retracted slightly. Shockwave’s voice remained perfectly even.
“Very well. An acceptable agreement has been established. Now then...”
The treaded coils around Blurr’s frame shifted with a soft mechanical rasp, preparing to lower him toward the waiting lab equipment below. The single optic in the darkness flared brighter for a brief moment.
Spoiler alert: Blurr still falls in love with Longarm, who works in the racing fields (as either a manager or a custodian— I haven’t decided yet). Either way, they fall in love… but by the end, Blurr still belongs to Shockwave. :)
Warning: Does get a bit suggestive towards the end.
The club music was loud and obnoxious. Not Shockwaves cup of energon really but when push came to shove, hed do just about anything for his beloved mate. The age difference between them was especially highlighted in tonight's activities. Blurr had begged and pleaded for Shockwave to come out with him and some friends to the clubs. An impromptu date night, hed said, so Shockwave could join in and socialize for once.
"You're always working too much, hours upon hours sitting at that desk isnt good for you!" Blurr had whined.
Reluctantly, Shockwave had agreed and tagged along...only to end up being at the same position anyways. Sitting at a desk, well in this case table, and instead of work he was drinking.
He had a nice view of the dance floor, which he refused to join, stating that he wasn't a dancer and would just save a table for the group for when they got tired and wanted to rest.
In truth, despite the harsh lights and loud music, Shockwave had discovered there was one thing he absolutely enjoyed about this.
And that was watching his younger, half drunk mate killing out on the dance floor.
Shockwave had no idea his lover could dance so well and free. It was quite different to seeing him at work only.
Serious, diligent, hard working...all of gone out window after a couple of drinks and good music blasting on the dance floor.
The way Blurr was dressed for this outting had Shockwaves spike slowly pressurizing behind his panel.
A hot pink mini skirt with a matching crop top that had a little heart window on the chest area.
Fish net stockings and matching arm gloves. Beaded glow in the dark bracelets with some glow in the dark body paint courtesy of Rodimus who was in a similar outfit but in neon green. Both wearing different dangling belts and accessories.
The speedsters swayed together to the beat along with a few others.
A sudden song came on,a bit different than the others. Sounded a bit retro but Rodimus seemed to recognize it instantly.
"Ohhh Blurr! Remember this one?! Ya think ya still got it after all this time?" He teased
Blurr began to swing to the beat of the song catching Shockwaves attention.
"Do YOU still got it Roddy? Because I never lost it" he teased
The 2 bots start swinging their hips together, the other bots giving them space on the dance floor.
As the song continues to play the 2 friends dance sensually to the beat as the part they were waiting for comes on
"First you gotta just work to the beat!"
Said and done, the 2 swayed easily to the beat of the song.
"Then, you gotta put your hands on your knees."
Roddy snapped down placing his hands on his knees, while Blurr slowly slide his hands down his body till they reached his knees, making sure to look back at Shockwave.
Both keeping the beat of the song.
Shockwave paused his drinking to stare at what was going on, glass raised half way to his mouth.
"Then, you gotta make your feet be flat"
Blurr and Roddy planted their feet flat onto the floor grinning excited
"Then, you gotta put a arch in your back!"
Both friends proceed to throw it back like no tomorrow.
Blurr made sure to keep eye contact with Shockwave as shook that ass to the beat.
Shockwave crushed the glass in his claws as he stared unapologetically.
His mate was showing off for him as he sways and shakes on the dance floor.
A worker came over to clean up the mess.
"Are you going to want a new drink sir?" They asked
Shockwave got up and handed them 100 shanx
"No thank you, keep the change" he said as he moved over to the dance floor.
Blurr swayed and laughed, turning towards his lover as he feels Shockwaves arm wrapping around him.
"Well my love, what do you think? Do I still got it?"
Shockwave pulled him close and off the dance floor.
"Oh most definitely you do, I haven't seen those moves before."
Blurr chuckles a bit
"Ill be glad to show you some more, in private~" he says sliding a finger on his mates chest
Shockwave tossed his mate carefully over his shoulder.
"Great, then I believe its a good time to end the date here." He says going towards the door.
Blurr laughs and calls out to Roddy
"Have fun, see ya tomorrow. Dates night being relocated to home" he says
Roddy laughs and nods
"Have fun~"
Blurr could feel Shockwaves claws rubbing over his legs and ass gently
