First of all i'm so goddamn happy to see twins i love them so much. Second, Do you have any headcanons about Blitz's siblings? Or Bees?
I have a couple headcanons about Blitzwing’s younger brother (born a few years before Bronzewing died) as well as some concept art of him! not fully sold on His design or name just yet but I’m working on him!
But the story of Blitzwing and Deadstick (still debating on the name, but its aviation jargon for landing without power) is a very very sad one. And it’s something that will linger with Blitzwing until the day he dies.
As for Deadstick himself, he wasn’t much of a fighter, he was actually pretty scrawny/sickly as a sparkling because he didn't gestate correctly. Tripwire was on her bullshit being a petulant child and due to her petty irresponsible actions, Deadstick suffered from Nanite deficiency in his earliest years of life. The lower ratio of his sire’s nanites caused several malfunctions with him, one being his optics were off-color.
Deadstick was definitely not a fighter, he was far too timid and wasn’t very strong. But he was a very bright bot! He seemed to be more clever than even his own sire and has managed to outsmart her several times.
He was a very sweet sparkling but suffered from mild separation anxiety, this was exacerbated when his carrier died and his sire left. Paranoia and panic would shake the poor young thing if he was ever separated from his brother.
Blitzwing grew very annoyed with his brother being so clingy, not that the bitlet could help it he was very young when he and Blitzy were orphaned, but Blitzwing was processing his own grief (in the worse way) and acted very much like a bully towards his brother. It's one of Blitzy’s biggest regrets.
If you want to know the full story of Deadstick, feel free to ask!
