You wake up in the middle of the night. There's something wrong, you can just tell.

You get up and open your bedroom door and suddenly you're able to hear a faint sound.

So you follow the sound to your kitchen and turn a light on.

And you find tinyformers Whirl sitting in a pot of boiling water on your stove.

Me, with hands full of laundry nudging Rodimus out of the way with my foot: baby please

Rodimus, his eyes enormous: you kick Rodimus? You kick Rodimus like the football? Oh! Oh!!! Jail for Guardian! Jail for Guardian for One Thousand Years!!!!

LITERALLYYYYYY

@bluecookiesabi I come bearing a gift for you

*hands him to you gently*

Tinyformers! Rodimus stands at his human friends feet looking for uppies, and attention after they get home from work.

"Oh? It looks like I'm getting a call!" They pick him up, and poke him in the chassis a couple of times. Making silly little dialing noises with their mouth. He chirps in delight at the attention he's getting, and wriggles a little bc he's being tickled.

They then bring him up to their ear, and say, "Hello? I've been contacted by a little goober who wants attention?" This tempts forth a torrential tide of beeps, boops, chirps, and squeaks from the cute little guy who's only happy to see his bestie after they've been gone for 5 million years. (They were at work. It's only been 5 hours. lol.)

They bring him down from their ear, and hold him normally after he accidentally kicks them in the cheek a few too many times out of excitement. "What am I gonna do with you, you little goofball?" Roddy points excitedly at the tv, and beeps part of the theme song to his favorite show. River Monsters. (Bc G1 Roddy likes fishing, and I didn't know what else to put there. lol)

"Ohhhhh. Is it time for your favorite show?" He beeps loudly in response, and his friend laughs before turning it on, and sitting down with him to watch it.

AWWWAAAAAAAA

THIS IS PRECIOUS, ANON ✨❤

tiny thunderclash being the bestest boy, perfect cuddler, always trying to help with tasks. Thanks to size its a little easier to carry stuff to you, like pencils and maybe a fruit. He'll sometimes even give you coins he finds and drags tissues to you when he find you sad and will not leave you alone until you feel better.

Rodimus hates his guts. How DARE he be so helpful! Especially to him! How dare he help him onto the couch to snuggle with you. How dare he give him cool rocks he definitely doesn't keep because he's so insufferable.

So in a nutshell

Rodimus: >:[ he tryna steal my human from me and is hiding it by being nice to me! How dare he!

Thunderclash: I luv Roddy and human :3 I must give gifts! :D

LITERALLYYYYYYY

Rodimus is usually a possessive lil teeny, but when Thunderclash is put into the equation he goes FERAL

Thunderclash will be the most helpful tiny ever. He will bring you items you need (if you think you lost something, no you didn't, because Thunderclash knows where it is), remind you to restock on something if you run out, help you organize stuff. He's a very good boi.

Roddy feels threatened by this behavior and will do everything in his power to inconvenience Thunderclash at every turn. Unfortunately, Roddy is usually not the best at executing these, and Thunderclash generally takes them as misunderstood attempts to be friends.

It's a wonderful dynamic.

Tinyformers Rodimus constantly wants your attention. If you're wearing a hoodie he wants to be in your hoodie pocket, if you're watching TV on the couch he wants to sit on your shoulder or your lap and babble at you, if you're eating dinner he wants to sit on the table beside you with his little energon cube.

He may also crawl into your bed for snuggles.

[zephyrrhiesfyrian]

Tinyformers Prowl is an acquired taste. He's very particular about what kind of energon he'll eat, and if you let him read any human health articles or books, he'll start throwing fits about what you eat too. He'll stand by a clothing hanger you haven't hung back up in the closet for as long as it takes for you to notice, after which he'll start chirping and gesturing angrily like he's trying to scold you.

His habitat is very utilitarian and simple, but if you gift him something that'll fit inside his hab (regardless of what it is), he will display it. If you get him little collectibles though (like the kind you get in capsule machines), either make sure you get him the whole set or make sure he never finds out there is a set. He is a completionist.

I am thinking about tinyformers with @callsign-relic

Cybertronians as tiny little companion/pet robots for humans, maybe with a language barrier too

like

just imagine a tiny handsized Rodimus zooming around a hotwheels track, or a lil Drift using his swords to attempt to help you cook, or a mini First Aid who panics every time you bump into something and keeps trying to scale your pants leg to put bandaids on you

aaaaaaaaaaaaa
