Thinking about random things for the otp
Rodimus teaches Thunderclash earth dances, expecting him to look funny. Which he does but Thunderclash also picks it up really fast (because of course he does) and Rodimus is impressed and annoyed and also definitely not turned on, no sir.
Thunderclash, once he knows Rodimus isn’t going to throw energon in his face when he flirts with him, dials it up to fucking 11. Sure, he sometimes isn’t the smoothest bot on their side of the universe, but he makes up for it by being so incredibly sweet and sincere when he does it.
Rodimus love languages are Words of Affirmation closely followed by Physical Contact. But Thunderclash’s are Quality Time and Acts of Service. This is where they tend to have little hiccups because they both have such different ways they try to say ‘I love you’ that they both don’t read the same way. It takes them a little while to realize that when Rodimus is being physically affectionate, he is telling Thunderclash how he feels in one of the most emotional ways he believes he can which is why they frag a lot. And when Thunderclash tries to take burdens off of Rodimus, he’s not trying to make him look bad, he’s doing a favor for the bot he loves the most in the whole universe.
Luckily they both realize how to show love for each other in ways they understand eventually. Rodimus knows that spending time with Thunderclash is important so they plan nights around it and Thunders always makes sure to tell Rodimus how much he loves him every day and how he believes in him. They aren’t always perfect at communicating to one another but the effort they make makes up for it. Because they both believe that their love is worth it.
Space, Time Travel, and other Love Affairs
I had to make a freaking timeline for my fics that fall under the TIF series. I have a lot of plans.
So they are also sort of in the order I want to complete them in from top to bottom. The ficlets might get done in random tho. So sorry if you were looking forward to Only if For a Night, but there are things in the Simpatico fic kind of affect things in that one so it needs to be done first.
🌟💁♀️💎 for Taking it further ^^
💎- What was your favorite part?
Oh man, there are too many to choose from. I like writing dialogue with Drift and Roddy because they’re such good friends and they can speak so candidly to one another about things.
Writing all the sleepy cuddles with Rodimus and Thunders was another favorite... So I would say that the chapter “Good Things” is my all time favorite 😊
💁- Did readers influence change any part of this story?
Not really, no. I wrote whole chapters ahead at times so the comments really didn’t have time to catch up with the story. Although, I do remember that an anon gave me the idea to have Rodimus spike Thunders at some point and I truly felt that the story was missing that so I did end up putting that in. Shoutout to that anon, you appealed to the smut part of me lmao. But plot-wise, I pulled everything out of my ass.
⭐- What’s a scene/paragraph you’re proud of?
I’m actually, and I hope no one hates me for this lol, quite proud of the two chapters: the storm, and the hurricane. I felt like I did a good job setting up the angst explosion and writing angst is like a guilty pleasure of mine. And the comments I received on those two chapters gave me years of life back lmao
Little rodiclash drabble under the cut, takes place after Taking it Further 😉
Thunderclash awoke to the soft presses of lips to his face and helm.
“Mnh?” He tried to verbalize a question but it was lost to his sleepy processor as he tried to open his optics, “Rodimu-mnph!”
Those gentle lips sealed over his own and his attempt to open his optics was thwarted by the desire to lose himself entirely in the kiss. He blindly reached up to hold his partner’s warm chassis that was leaned over him. Finally they parted and Thunderclash was able to look up into stunningly bright blue optics that regarded him with excitement.
“You’re up early” Thunderclash said, but as he checked his chronometer he rescinded his statement, “Or rather really, really late. Is something the matter?” He asked but Rodimus’ optics glimmered with mischief.
“No, I just know something you don’t for once.” Rodimus said quietly, “Can you guess what it is?”
Thunderclash thought for a moment but recharge was still affecting his thought process and he felt a little dumb at the moment. He didn’t want to disappoint his little love however, so he put a finger up to his mouth as he thought. A moment of horror crossed his mind as he thought he may have forgotten something important.
“I didn’t forget the day of your forging, did I?” Thunderclash asked, optics wide.
“Nope!” Rodimus laughed, “Don’t worry you still have a month before that!”
“Oh,” Thunderclash chewed the inside of his cheek, “We celebrated our anniversary not that long ago... I give up, what is it?”
“Oh ‘Clash,” Rodimus relaxed until he was laying his top half fully on Thunderclash’s chest, “Today, about 5 minutes ago and two years, was the day you joined the crew of the Lost Light.”
Thunderclash felt surprised, “I didn’t think you would remember something like that, especially considering...”
“Considering how much I thought I hated your guts? Yeah well it kept me counting the days until I could possibly get rid of you.” Rodimus chuckled airily, “But I’ll tell you, I stopped counting right after I shared my heat with you... I only recently thought about it so I worked out the math-- well I had Perceptor work out the math-- and when I realized it was so close I decided I would surprise you, since it’s now one of the events I’ll always treasure.” Rodimus beamed, his beautiful face plastered with a giant grin that Thunderclash couldn’t help but mirror.
“That’s very sweet of you Rodimus, thank you.” He put a hand up to cup the speedster’s cheek.
“You’re not mad that I woke you up are you? I know it’s kind of late.” Rodimus chuckled apologetically.
“I would never be angry about being woken up like that, nor for being woken up by you for any reason.” Thunderclash stroked his helm flare with his thumb, “You’re the only reason I wake up at all.”
Rodimus let out a soft puff of air, “You should probably find a few more reasons, just in case something happens to me. You know how I get.”
“I’d never let anything bad happen to you.” Thunderclash smiled, pushing up from the berth to capture Rodimus’ mouth in another quick kiss, pulling away only slightly to say, “No matter how reckless you are, I’ll always be there to have your back or to catch you when you fall. No matter what.”
“I know,” Rodimus said in a whisper, “And I love you for that.”
Thunderclash held his mate close to his chest and relaxed back into the plushness of their shared berth, quickly falling back into recharge under the warmth of Rodimus. Perfectly at peace knowing his love felt so strongly for him and knowing that, 10 minutes and 2 years ago, he made the best decision of his functioning when he joined the crew of the Lost Light.
