Can I request more of Apollonis and drift with them forcefully bonding? Drfit needs to make up with his child
And make you Drift needs to do.
Hope you enjoy!
Apollonis and Drift
SFW, Platonic, Familial, Cybertronian reader
MTMTE
Apollonis tries to avoid Drift at all costs.
Which isn’t an easy feat considering that they were in the same ship, everyone was bound to bump into each other at some point.
And when one was working in the med bay, the chances of seeing the same bot increased by a tenfold.
Rodimus didn’t make things easier either.
As soon as he found out about Drift and Apollonis being related, he tried his best to get his Amica to reconnect with her.
While she has respect for her Captain, this is one thing she has asked him to stay out of.
Which he politely disagrees with and continues to try and help Drift.
Too bad things haven’t been working out well for both mechs.
Apollonis walks over to her assigned med slab. There is a slight glare in her optics when she see Drift sitting there. Apollonis: “What happened this time?” Drift: “That’s a bit harsh to ask, isn’t it?” Her glare hardens as she continues to do the checkup. There was a heavy silence. Apollonis: “How did you get this rod in your gears?” Drift: “It may have involved Rodimus and I—" Apollonis: “Oh if Rodimus is involved, you’re going to have to bring that up with Ratchet. And this time, keep things short. You can’t keep using the med bay as a way to keep on talking to him like that.” Drift: “Like wha—OW!” Apollonis gives a fake smile as she squeezed a bit hard around the mesh wound area. Apollonis: “Oh did that hurt? I’m so sorry.” Drift grunts a bit. Drift: “Look at you, your sarcasm has improved so much Little One.” She freezes for a second before putting on a neutral face. Apollonis: “You’re free to go now.” Drift: “Wait…” The young doctor turns and walks away from the med slab. Drift looks sadly at his daughter walking away.
Drift knows he messed things up with Apollonis.
There isn’t a day where he doesn’t regret how he treated her back when they were with the Cons.
He was her father for Primus sake!
He should have done more to protect her!
The mech accepts all the cold shoulders and sarcastic comments as part of his punishment.
Most bots can physically feel the tension these two have whenever they are in the same room.
It was generally thought that the two had some sort of shared bitter history.
What exactly is it?
No one has managed to get the story yet.
Mainly because Drift is very vague about it and Apollonis gets a bit touchy on the subject.
Also they didn’t want to push the Ex-Wrecker and mini Ratchet too far.
Though that doesn’t stop some crew members from asking.
Apollonis and Tailgate are sitting in a booth at Swerve’s. He was waiting for Cyclonus to show up and wanted some company. Tailgate: “So… what happened with you and Drift?” Apollonis sighs deeply. Apollonis: “Tailgate, we’ve talked about this.” Tailgate: “I’m just trying to think on what he could have done! I mean you’re a nice bot, kinda like a nicer Ratchet.” Apollonis tries to hide a chuckle at that comment. Tailgate: “Your even nice to Cyclonus and not everyone is. Why hate Drift?” Apollonis: “I don’t hate Drift… I don’t think I could if I tried…somethings can’t be so easily talked about Tailgate.” Tailgate sighs in defeat. Tailgate: “You’re starting to sound like Cyclonus.” Apollonis chuckles a bit at the minibots expense. Apollonis: “I’ll take that as a complement.”
Ratchet does try and talk to her about talking to Drift.
She needs closure and Drift needs it too.
Apollonis proves to be just as stubborn as her mentor and father.
Even with her avoiding the topic of talking to Drift, Ratchet did catch a little moment the two shared.
A couple bots had managed to get the drop on Drift and left him a bit banged up. Bot 1: “So what are ya going to do Deadlock?” Drift flinched a bit hearing his former name. Bot 2: “Aww look at him on the ground. Pathetic!” Drift gets a swift kick to the tanks and grunts a bit. Bot 1: “What? Not going to make us pay? C’mon, hit me!” Apollonis behind him: “With pleasure!” WHAM! The doctor decked the bot square in the face, successfully knocking him out before kicking one of his friends in the face. Out of pure surprise and shock the bots drag their leader away. Apollonis dusted her servos a bit. Apollonis: “What a bunch of beryllium baloney…” She turned to a slightly battered Drift. He notices her optics soften a bit as she hoists him onto her back. He slightly remembered the position being called ‘piggy back’ or something like that. Apollonis: “I can’t leave you alone for one minute, can I? Always getting yourself into trouble… ” Drift: “Aww—ouch. You do care—Hey!” She gave a little smile when she pinched the back of his pedes and made her way to the med bay.

Hi! Can we get more Nova and Bumblebee please?
Maybe Bumblebee starts too realize slowly about Nova and his own feeling.
The pinning has finally finished!
Hope you enjoy!
Bumblebee and Nova confess?
SFW, Platonic, Romance, Cybertronian reader
G1
Raoul was sick and tired of hearing about the drama Tracks had.
Now normally he would be all in for hearing about bot stories from the flying car, but lately it had turned into an endless rant about how it was going to probably take the ending of the war to get Bumblebee and Nova to confess.
He had had enough!
Raoul: “Tracks, I love ya man, but can you PLEASE talk about anything else besides those two!” Tracks: “Well, no one is asking you to stay.” Raoul: “I’m just tryina hear abou da new stuff on base and here ya are talking about Bee and Bova! I’m sick of it!” Tracks just huffs at this. Raoul: “I swear. Ya know what? I bet I can get those two bozos together faster than you can drive.” Tracks: “Yeah right. No offense Raoul but those two are as dense as your skull.” Raoul: “Some offense taken. Then let’s make things interesting. If I can get them together on an actual date by the end of the month, you have ta drive and fly me for a week.” Tracks: “Raoul if you get them to go on a date, I’ll drive and fly you anywhere for a month.” Raoul: “Deal!”
Raoul has most of the basics down on both bots… but apparently completely forgot that she was a dinobot.
Bit of a surprise, but you know what, he is still doing this.
Cranks up all his confidence and swagger in his body up by 100 the moment he steps out of Track’s alt mode.
He heads straight to the bot, who was happily chatting with Bumblebee.
Raoul: “Yo what’s up?” Nova looks down in surprise. Nova: “Hello? Who you?” Raoul: “The name’s Raoul, gorgeous. I’mma a friend of Tracks.” She was pretty for a bot, but not his type. Nova: “Tracks friend?” Raoul: “Yes siree. I’ve heard a ton about ya Nova, especially about ya being a dinobot, and being strong. I’d sure like ta see a cutie like you in action.” Nova smiles at him. Nova: “Nova can show friend Raoul! Come! Come!” Raoul and Nova happily talk as they make their way out of the Ark. Every bot who witnessed this: “…” Prowl: “What was that?” Jazz: “I think I need Ratchet to check my optics…” Blaster turns to Tracks: “I didn’t know Raoul was into bots.” Tracks: “He isn’t!” Bumblebee was standing in the same place trying to process what had just happened. Bumblebee: “That was… weird?” Grimlock is slowly blinking and trying to wrap around his processor how this new human took away his scout from the love of her life. Grimlock: “Me Grimlock can’t handle love triangle today…”
No one has any idea what just happened.
And this is not the end of it.
Nova was out with her new friend almost every day.
She always seemed to be by the humans side from patrol routes to hang out spots.
There was a clear trust gained within those couple of days.
Raoul went from walking by her side, to sitting on top of her helm in dino mode.
A sign of extreme trust.
New bets are made in the betting pool concerning whether Bee or Raoul would end up going out with Nova.
Grimlock is just watching all of this from afar and banging his helm.
Ratchet and Wheeljack are trying to stop him from making a hole in the Ark with his helm slamming.
Bumblebee has no idea what to think about this.
He was so used to having Nova close by, it felt wrong to have her so far.
Sure, they had been separated before on missions and when on different patrol routes, but this was different.
She was giving Raoul HIS smiles!
Wait—what did he just say?
Bumblebee wakes up at 3 in the morning as the Brick of Love had hit him square in the face. He liked Nova. He liked his best friend. Bumblebee: “Oh Sweet Primus…” He gets up and walks a bit around the Ark. Jazz was dragging Prowl to the berth when they both spot Bumblebee. Jazz: “Bee? You okay man? It’s kinda late for a stroll.” Prowl: “Did something happen?” Bumblebee: “I just had a realization, that’s all.” Prowl: “What is it?” Bumblebee looks a bit nervous. Bumblebee: “Promise you won’t laugh?” Both mech nod and wait. Bumblebee: “I think I like Nova... like more than a friend.” Prowl and Jazz: “…” Prowl vents and face palms. Prowl: “Thank Primus I thought it was serious.” Bumblebee: “What?” Jazz brings him to a side hug. Jazz: “Congrats Bee. You’re the last to know.” Bumblebee: “Wait? It was that obvious?” Prowl: “Bumblebee, everyone knows Nova has feelings for you.” Bumblebee: “…Even Grimlock?” Jazz: “Especially Grimlock.”
After some encouraging words from the two Bee walked back to his berth.
He did try to go back to sleep but couldn’t.
After the realization, he needed to talk to Nova.
It could have been his last chance if Raoul hadn’t taken that too.
In hindsight, he knew it was probably not a good idea to sneak into the dinobots quarters.
Most of them slept in their dino modes in a circle or giant pile.
Why a pile? He didn’t know and it didn’t look comfy either.
Thank Primus it was circle today.
As carefully and quietly as he could he sneaked to Nova’s side and gently tapped her helm.
Her optics slowly opened as she let out a yawn.
He told her in a hushed voice to follow him.
Not yet understanding everything, she let the yellow bot grab her servo and lead her away from the circle.
The pair was now outside the Ark as the first signs of the sun started showing in the sky. Nova yawns again finally noticing how Bumblebee hadn’t let go of her servo. Her frame started heating up. Nova: “Why Bumblebee bring Nova outside? It very early.” Bumblebee: “Well… You see I…umm… Nova I…” Nova looked at the yellow mech now concerned. Nova: “Something wrong?” Bumblebee: “No its just… You know what I’m just going to say it!” Nova: “Bumblebee?” Bumblebee: “I like you! I like you a lot!” Nova froze in place. She tilted her helm at him with near pleading optics. Nova: “Is that true? You like like Nova?” Bumblebee nods before looking down embarrassed, missing the new brightness in her optics. Bumblebee: “I think I have for a while but never acted until Raoul came.” Nova: “Friend Raoul? Why? He is friend.” Bumblebee: “Really? I thought maybe you two had something—” CLANK! The smaller mech was suddenly trapped in a tight hug by the taller dinobot. She curled her tail around his pedes as her chassis made a low purring noise. Nova: “Raoul is friend. Nova like like Bumblebee only.” Bumblebee let out a laugh of relief as he hugged her back. They broke from the hug and opted to sit next to each other and wait for the sun to rise. Meanwhile in the Ark… Grimlock wakes up first and notices Nova’s spot empty. Grimlock: “Nova? Nova! Swoop! Snarl! Sludge! Slag! Where Nova at!?”
While having several panicky dinobot’s wake up everyone wasn’t the best start for most of the bots on base, it was worth it when they saw Bee and Nova holding servos.
Both with the same lovesick look on each other’s faces.
It finally happened!
There was much rejoice that the two had finally confessed and announced they weren’t going to be available in the evening.
Grimlock is now torn between celebrating or giving Bee the shovel talk that he has seen on TV.
… Probably celebrate first, then talk.
And a happy Raoul got his rides for an entire month.

And oh god the reveal.  Maybe Magneto finally got his dates and order and realized “oh shit, that's my kid”.  Maybe Ultra magnus sent a email which sent the entire us government into a panic because how the fuck did this escape notice.  What if when Magneto figured it out he tried to talk to them.  He calls them by their birth name, not the name the government gave them to protect them, or the name their robot family gave them, the name he gave them.  “I go by Fearless now, Eric” (man imagine getting disowned by your own kid).  As far as the X-men are concerned, their favorite telenovela just got better.  As for the lost light, oh boy get ready for headcanons.  Running on the idea that Cybertronians are an asexual species, their whole family units are created through adoption.  To create that bond with someone is a very important and almost sacred choice.  To abandon a child you chose to take in for a selfish reason is borderline unheard of.  Even with IDW Ophelia, Megs left her behind originally to protect her, shitty yes, but still an action born out of the desire to keep her safe, still lining up with the importance of these bonds to cybertronians.  Needless to say, the general opinion of magento went from “eh, whatever, we have megatron on board.” to “fuck this one guy in particular”
Once I get enough energy and patience, I will write a longer piece on this AU.
Hope you enjoy!
AU: Magneto is Fearless's Dad (part 2)
SFW, Angst, Familial, Platonic, Mention of X Men 97, Human reader
MTMTE/ XMEN 97
It had been a couple of days since Fearless’s failed assassination attempt and there were still no leads.
A couple of villains were called into question, even some government officials, but nothing solid.
But that wasn’t the most important thing.
The Fearless and Magneto beef was still raging on strong.
Finally at 1 in the morning, Magneto realizes why Fearless looked so familiar.
He had known their mother… they looked like…
Like the child he left behind all those years ago...
…Oh, this made too much sense it hurt.
The Brick of Parenthood had finally found its target.
He always thought that they would have led a normal life on Earth, not galivanting through space with giant alien robots, one which was a genocidal ex warlord.
Take it for his kid to do something strange and reckless.
Seeing the little kid he knew now all grown up sent a pang of guilt through his chest.
Then came a thought... arguably a terrible idea.
Talking to them.
There was without a doubt in Magneto’s mind that they knew who he was, it explained in the pained look they gave him at times.
He needed to talk to them, now.
Fearless was happily talking with Morph when he came, asking to talk to them in private.
They don’t like the look the older man is giving them.
It looked like pity and… pain?
They warily agree.
The pair makes their way into a room in the mansion. Fearless crosses their arms. Fearless: “So, what did you want to talk about?” Magneto: “… It has been a long time since we last saw each other, hasn’t it?” Fearless stiffened. Fearless: “I don’t know what you’re talking about.” Magento: “I did not raise a liar.” Fearless’s eyes widened and unconsciously takes a step back. Magneto: “My little Lionheart… it has been a long time.” The name brought flashbacks of a little kid reaching out for a hug to their tall father. They shake their head. Fearless: “I go by Fearless, Eric. That is the name I go by now, the one MY Family gave me. I expect you to at least have the decency to respect that.” Magneto: “… Fine then… Fearless.” Fearless huffs as they tighten their arms around themselves. Fearless: “Was this what you wanted to talk about? Because if it is your wasting your time and mine.” They turn to open the door behind them, but the metal locks lock themselves. Fearless: “…Unlock the doors Magneto.” Magneto: “Not until we talk.” Fearless: “What is there to talk about?” Fearless tries opening the door with no luck. Magneto: “It has been years since I’ve last seen you child.” Fearless: “And who’s fault was that, Eric. Now if you can be so kind as to open the door—” Magneto: “You didn’t have the X gene Fearless. Your birth stood against so many things I stood against at the time. I had to leave you. You must understand that.” Fearless: “I don’t have to understand Jack Magneto! Now let me out!” Fearless tries furiously to open the doors now, only for some metal sheets to block the door. Fearless: “Eric! Open the doors now!” Magneto steps forward as Fearless tries prying the metal themselves. Magneto: “You are going to hurt yourself like that.” Fearless continues to trying to pry the metal with their bare hands. Magneto: “You have to understand that when I left you—” Fearless: “UNDERSTAND WHAT!? That I wasn’t the perfect baby you wanted! That I didn’t fit in your ideal world?! Save me the speech Eric I know! I’VE KNOWN THAT SINCE THE DAY I FOUND OUT WHO EXACTLY MY FATHER WAS!” Tears were streaming down their face, but they stood tall with their fist clenched. A heavy silence filled the room. Fearless: “If you have any ounce of any respect or basic decency… let me go.” Magneto wordlessly let the metal sheets fall to the ground. Fearless wastes no time in bursting out of the room. Magneto sighs sadly from inside the room. Meanwhile in the room next door. Logan and Morph were trying to watch a movie when they overheard the conversation through the wall. Logan and Morph: “…” Morph: “…That was unexpected.” Logan: “…You owe me a 12 pack and 20 buck’s bub.” Morph: “Oh C’mon!”
And apparently those two weren’t the only ones who overheard.
Jean had seen a distraught Fearless running outside and decided to gently look inside their mind to see what could have possibly upset them.
It did not take long there after for the rest of the X men to find out about the new family drama.
There was a lot of talk between the team about Fearless and Magneto, but they never guessed something like this.
So many questions yet to be answered!
The drama!
The Angst!
Some members are kind of glad a plot twist happened in their new telenovela, but at the same time are sympathetic to the whole ‘messed up family bloodlines thing’.
Fearless was walking around having calmed down. They spot Magneto exiting the room and walking to their direction. This was at the same time Kurt and Rouge just so happen to be walking by. The pair walked a bit faster to get to Fearless’s side. Kurt: “Fearlezz!” Fearless jumped at the sudden noise but calmed down seeing the blue mutant. Fearless: “Primus Kurt, don’t scare me like that.” Kurt: “Zorry!” Rouge gently placed a hand on their back, guiding them to another direction. Rouge: “There’s a cool thing the boys wanted ta show ya.” Fearless: “Now? I mean sure! Cool, cool, cool.”
The real question now about the bots.
Did THEY know about this?
Only one way to find out!
Morph is sitting by Whirl in his holoform. Morph: “Has Fearless every talked about their family, like before going to space?” Whirl: “Not really. They don’t talk too much on all the Earthy stuff.” He raises an eyebrow. Whirl: “Why you want some information on them?” Morph: “Well, its more like we’ve just gotten some new information on them.” Whirl: “Like what?” Morph: “… Logan won the bet.” Whirl: “Which ones Logan again? Wait is he the gruffy one with the claws that thinks I know some guy name Deadpool?” Morph: “That’s him.” Whirl: “Oh okay then. Wait what did he bet on again? Hang on a second.” Whirl pulls out a list of the bets and goes down before stopping at Logan’s bet. Whirl slowly looks at Morph. Morph: “Turns out Fearless’s dad is Magento.” Whirl: “… Excuse me but WHAT THE—” Magnus, in his holoform, comes in. Magnus: “Whirl! What have we talked about that language!” Whirl: “MAGNETO IS FEARLESS’S EARTH DAD!” Magnus: “WHAT!?” Morph: “I feel like I made a mistake…”
News about Magento being Fearless’s biological father spreads amongst the bots like wildfire.
They go to the X men about more details about this.
They would have asked Fearless… but these past few days the resident human looked ready to drop dead and sob on the spot.
The Lost Light crew is absolutely furious hearing the implication of Magneto Abandoning Fearless at a young age.
It is explained to the mutants about the significant values chosen family had amongst Cybertronian’s.
To abandon one’s sparkling/ youngling/ or mentee at such a tender age was simply unheard of.
The bots and X men hear some yelling from a far. It was Fearless yelling at Magneto to leave them alone. Megatron is the first to move. The Earth shakes as the Ex Warlord now looms over Fearless, casting a long shadow over Magneto. Fearless looks surprised to see the mech. Fearless: “Megatron? What are you doing here in bot mode? Did something happen with your holoform—EEP!” Megatron scoops Fearless up with one servo and holds them firmly to his chassis. He sported a harsh glare at the man on the ground. Megatron: “When my child says to leave them alone. You. Leave. Them. Alone.” Cue gasps from X men in the background. The twists keep getting better and better. Fearless is still very confused. Magneto: “Your child?” Rodimus: “That’s right! His kid. A member of our crew and family.” The other bots soon start lining behind or beside Megatron. Megatron: “Do not let me catch you disrespecting their space again.” With that the bots turn to go to their ship. Megatron looks down to see Fearless trying to stifle a sob. He gently rubs a digit up and down their back. They began to shake like a leaf and curled even smaller against his servo. Megatron: “There, there… I’ve got you… I’ve got you… Your safe now Fearless… Your safe…”
The bots and Fearless were going to need a day to process this before returning back to the big problems at hand.
Especially Fearless…

And this is sort of where it turns into X-men ‘97 fanfiction.  What if Swerves is playing Magnetos trail.  What if this is the most tense and uncomfortable fearless has ever been seen.  The general conclusion is that they were probably caught in the crossfires of one of Magnetos' attacks.  But let's take this idea a step further.  Shenanigans happen, maybe you’re local x-men villain starts to fuck with the lost light, maybe the crew is on earth during local less then natural disaster, either way LOOK WHOS WORKING TOGETHER NOW!  With Magneto now leading the X-men, things are gonna get interesting.  Fearless is immediately hostile to Magneto.  Which is fucking crazy to everyone, because even when Fearless and Megs were on less then friendly terms, their pranks were just that, pranks.  AND NO ONE KNOWS WHY.  its not like they dont like mutants, not only do they work on a spaceship full of aliens, they’re plenty friendly to the rest of the team.  Magneto is confused because they are close with megs but it's him they have a problem with?  Is it personal?  He starts trying to make a mental timeline to see who he's screwed over before in the past and try to figure it out.  The lost lights confused, and as far as they are concerned, secrets are for losers.  There is now the giant robot equivalent to a cork board with 10 different theories and evidence.  The X-Men are just enjoying their newest form of entertainment.
Y E S ! ! !
You have no idea how long I have been waiting to write for this new AU!? Thank you so much for the ideas!!!
Hope you enjoy!

Fearless didn’t think much was going to happen today.
It was a slow day after all.
Maybe Rodimus would get bored and try something to liven up the place.
They weren’t expecting Swerve to put on the Magneto trial in the bar.
Their eyes widen seeing the man on screen.
It had been many years since they had seen that man.
Apparently, space wasn’t far enough for them to go to escae this man.
Fearless looked down at the juice box in their hand.
They raise an eyebrow at the minibot.
Fearless: “Really Swerve? What happened to the other juices?”
Swerve: “Don’t blame me. That’s what was in the crate, besides don’t you like juice boxes?”
Fearless: “… Touche.”
The strike of the gavel reminds them of what was going on the screen.
Suddenly the juice box labels looks very interesting.
Whirl sits by them.
He notices them staring at the box.
Whirl: “Hey Fearless did your drink commit war crimes? Cause your looking at it like it did some war crimes.”
Fearless: “I’m fine Whirl.”
The voice…
He started talking.
It had been a long time since they heard him.
Not since…
SQUISH!
Fearless clenches the juice box too hard, spraying it everywhere, dripping on them and on the table.
Blood rushes to their ears from embarrassment and of something else they couldn’t pin point.
Whirl: “Umm… Aren’t you supposed to drink that?”
Fearless wordlessly gets up from their seat, cleans up most of the juice with some napkins before speed walking out of the bar.
Swerve and Whirl look at Fearless’s direction confused.
Swerve: “You know what that was about?”
Whirl: “Not a clue.”
Fearless sudden behavior caught the attention of many bots on the ship.
Even those who weren’t in the bar.
Fearless dodges questions left and right.
Theories are made by some of the bots who were in the bar when they first saw Fearless acting weird.
There is a general conclusion made by most bots that, while on Earth, Fearless came across Magneto at some point.
Clearly it hadn’t been a good interaction.
A couple days later Fearless is called to go back to Earth alone.
No further instructions, no nothing about Megatron or the bots.
Just to come to Earth, alone.
On hearing the ominous message, it was agreed that some bots would accompany Fearless back to Earth.
Fearless had an uneasy feeling about this trip back to Earth.
It was clear on their face as they glared at the windows with their arms crossed.
Not even Whirl or Swerve’s jokes seemed to crack the tension in their tiny body.
Fearless is called to go to the human’s only sector.
They promise to scream for help if someone tried anything.
This was supposed to be meant as a joke.
The second they enter the building; someone immediately tries to get the jump on them.
Now Fearless knows how to fight, they lived on the Lost Light for crying out loud!
But it had been a while since they had to fight someone their size without a suit and when more people coming in.
Fearless is pinned down on the floor.
On of the people in dark ski masks has a knee digging deep into their back.
The air had momentarily knocked out of their lungs leaving them dizzy and breathless.
CLICK!
Fearless was now staring at the barrel of a gun.
Ski mask 1: “Hope you enjoyed your few seconds here on Earth, alien sympathizer.”
Fearless struggles more but their face keeps being pushed to the floor.
All they need is one scream…
BAMF!
The weight was suddenly tossed off their back, letting them finally breathe.
They gasped for air as someone grabbed them and tossed them over their shoulder.
Fearless: “Hey! Let go!”
Logan gets elbowed in the face.
Logan: “Gah! Will you quit that! We’re trying to save you little—”
BAMF!
Kurt grabs them both.
Fearless: “WHAT THE—”
BAMF!
Fearless, Logan and Kurt are now outside the building.
Fearless looks around seeing some other X men talking with the bots.
Megatron looks over at a very disheveled and injured Fearless.
Megatron: “Fearless!”
The bots look over at Fearless.
Fearless is just looking around very confused.
Fearless: “…what the—"
After the bots check that Fearless was relatively okay, it was time for introductions.
Most of the X men had already introduced themselves to the bots while Logan and Kurt had gone inside to get Fearless.
The group had gotten a tip that someone wanted to ‘unalive’ the human liaison for Earth and Cybertron relations.
Neither team has the slightest clue who would want them gone.
But if Fearless was unalived and the bots didn’t know, it could have caused a rift in Earth and Cybertronian alliances, especially with Fearless being a part of the crew and part of a family unit.
Did anyone ask for a team up?
That’s when Magento makes a dramatic entrance.
Fearless immediately goes stiff and straightens their back.
Magneto: “Greetings. I am—"
Fearless: “Magneto.”
Magneto looks over at the human standing in front of the bots with their arms crossed.
Magneto: “I take that you’ve heard of my reputation?”
Fearless: “Kinda hard not to hear about a mass murder of both human and mutant kind.”
Magneto: “Hm, and here I thought we were going to have civil conversations as equals. Human to Mutant.”
Fearless: “What? Wait, wait. You think I have something against mutants?”
Rogue: “Well by the tone ya using, there’s some room for interpretation.”
Fearless sighs and face palms.
They gesture to the bots behind them.
Fearless: “I live with a giant crew of dysfunctional alien robots. I’m not some heartless monster who’s going to judge or chase you down with a pitchfork because someone can light a candle with their pinkie. Just as long as you aren’t messing with my family, everything will go well.”
Jean: “Wait family? You work with your family?”
Fearless: “Raises their eyebrow.
Fearless: “They are right behind me you know.”
Magneto grunts a bit before reaching out his hand to Fearless to shake.
Ratchet registers a sudden increase in Fearless’s heart rate.
Fearless looks at the hand like it committed first degree murder before shaking it begrudgingly.
Magneto: “I never got your name.”
Fearless: “My name is Fearless, Magneto.”
The bots are very much concern for their human.
Besides the obvious assassination attempt shaking everyone up, they had never seen Fearless this hostile and tense before.
Not even Megatron received this treatment!
The most he received was pranks and some comments here and there.
This was a full on seething hatred.
Fearless is polite with the other members of the X men and tries helping them as much as they can.
After cloaking the ship, it was agreed to head to the X mansion for further development on the case.
The mutants had to do a double take once the bots turned on their holoforms to get inside the building.
Friendships are formed.
Rodimus and Cyclops end up having a friendly rivalry.
The Co-Captain thinks Scotts beams are cool.
Scott gets flashbacks when Rodimus shows off his flames.
Flames that also get Jubilee attention.
Fearless is half certain that he is going to try and smuggle her on the ship.
Thankfully Magnus is keeping an optic out for him and Jubilee.
Drift tries to adopt Kurt, but Ratchet keeps telling him no.
Kurt is fanboying Drift’s massive swords and hearing about his beliefs.
Ratchet somehow develops a sixth sense knowing where the blue mutant was going to pop out.
Rodimus holds Scott out.
Rodimus: “Mine shoots beams out of his eyes!”
Drift holds Kurt out.
Drift: “Mine’s teleports, swings swords around and has a tail!”
He gently pats Kurts head.
Drift: “And he’s fluffy!”
Kurt and Scott look down to Fearless.
Fearless: “Don’t fight it, you’ve already been claimed.”
Kurt: “Vhat do you mean vy that?”
Fearless: “You’ve been chosen that’s all I can say.”
Scott: “You speak from experience.”
Fearless: "I ended up with one of the most trigger-happy bots as my best friend for life. The system works.”
Scott: “What system!?”
Beast gets passed between Brainstorm, Perceptor and Nautica.
Yes, he is a bit confused at first, but quickly gets over it on realizing these were some fellow scientists.
Brainstorm wants to upgrade some of the team’s technology… Beast is thinking about it.
Storm gets stopped by the minibots.
They love her powers!
Ororo indulges them with light rain and little wind funnels.
Rewind is filming everything while Swerve fanboys in the background while Tailgate splashes in some puddles.
Cyclonus in the meantime was taking notes on Storm and Jean’s fashion choices to later upgrade his holoform.
Beast: “Do you think that with enough electricity it can disable your weapons?”
Brainstorm: “…One way to figure that out!”
Storm: “I am not about to blast your weapon with a bolt of lighting. There is no telling what it could do to you.”
Brainstorm: “That is precisely why we need to find out!”
Fearless: “Trust me on this one, just give them a little bit.”
Storm raises an eyebrow.
Storm: “And they will be all right?”
Fearless shrugs.
Fearless: “Wouldn’t be the first time Stormy’s done something like this and it won’t be the last. This is pretty tame of an experiment for him.”
Jean walks over.
Jean: “What do you mean ‘tamest’?”
Fearless: “Well there was the time traveling briefcase.”
Jean: “The what?”
Rogue and Gambit end up in the company of Skids and Rung.
Skids finds Rogues and Gambits powers to be amazing.
Rung offers a good listening ear to Rogue who finds his presscene very comforting and vents.
The orange mech desperately want this woman to book an appointment with a therapist.
No scratch that, get everyone an appointment.
Gambit tried teaching Skids how to throw cards.
He is surprised when Skids gets it on the first try.
Lastly, Logan and Morph end up with Whirl.
Whirl keeps shouting suggestions for Morph to shapeshift into.
Morph happily obliges.
Logan can’t seem to get the strangest feeling of de va ju.
A reminder of a certain merc with a mouth…
Whirl: “Hey Whiskers! Do the claw thing again.”
Logan: “No.”
Whirl: “Do it!”
Morph: “Logan its just a little bit.”
Whirl: “Yeah listen to your outlier buddy and do it!”
Logan: “Outlier?”
Whirl: “Hang on I’ll get a translator. Fearless!”
Fearless comes over.
Whirl points at the two.
Whirl: “Explain what an outlier is.”
Fearless: “An outlier is… hm… how do I explain this… An outlier is kinda like you guys.”
Logan: “What?”
Fearless: “They have special abilities that separate them from the average bot.”
Fearless points over to Skids who was copying Gambit’s card tricks.
Fearless: “Skids over there can near perfect any instruction or action given to him on the first go. If I’m not wrong, Skids and some other bots I know went to a school that helped them with their abilities since society deemed them--”
Morph: “Dangerous?”
Fearless has a bit of a somber look on their face.
Fearless: “With all the former caste systems and alt mode prejudice it was nice for them to have a place to call their own. Sadly, when the founder of the school, a senator, was arrested they dispersed.”
Logan: “Hmm.”
The second Fearless spots Magneto talking with Megatron, they quickly grab Megatron by the arm and pull him away.
This goes the same for any bot that goes anywhere near Magneto.
The glare never leaving their face.
Fearless was offered a room to stay in the mansion, but they insisted on leaving with the bots.
They grab Megatron’s hand and leave.
Megatron felt how tight they were grabbing and the slight tremble in it.
They ignore the questions about their behavior and calls in a night.
Too bad Papa Megatron wants some answers.
Fearless struggles in his loose grip.
Megatron: “Are you going stop acting like a sparkling and start talking sense.”
Fearless lets out a tired sigh as they trace small circles on his digit.
Fearless: “As you might know I’m… not exactly fond of Magneto.”
Megatron: “Understatement of the century.”
Fearless squints their eyes at him.
He places them down on the berth and sits next to them.
Megatron: “… You never acted like this. Not even when I came on this ship and by the way this Magento speaks and his goals… he sounds like me—”
Fearless slaps his leg.
Fearless: “Don’t you EVER compare yourself to him!”
Megatron: “A simple observation and you cannot deny there are similarities between us. But why hate him and not me?”
Fearless: “Your both very different from each other Meg’s! That man is a heartless monster! A murderer! You—You—"
Megatron: “The same.”
Fearless furiously blinks back their tears and looks down.
Fearless: “But you changed!”
Megatron: “And isn’t he trying as well?”
The mech gently runs a digit up and down Fearless’s back.
Megatron: “He is at the start of his redemption Fearless. Don’t you think that it is wise to give him the benefit of the doubt?”
Fearless shakes their head and pulls their legs up and leans on Megatron’s side.
Megatron: “… He did something to you didn’t he?”
Fearless hugs themselves tighter trying to appear smaller.
They start to shake a bit.
Megatron carefully picked them up and hugged them to his chassis.
He can feel the tears running down his chassis.
Megatron: “You don’t need to tell me now if you don’t want to.”
Fearless sniffles a bit before looking up at him.
Fearless: “I-I want to Dad… I really want to—to. But everything that just happened…”
Megatron hushes Fearless while running the digit up and down their back.
They try muffling their sobs in his chassis.
He wonders if they can feel his spark clenching through the armor.
Days are passing by as the teams are still trying to figure out what is going on.
With the assassination attempt and why Fearless hates Magento’s gut so much.
The crew has made a giant board filled with red string trying to figure this out.
Even their new fellow X men friends come and join in on the theories.
The x men are enjoying their latest source of entertainment.
Especially once Fearless starts getting more comfortable around them and their chaotic side starts showing up.
Magento was having a hard time.
He has no idea what he did to this person to make them hate them.
Sure, it’s nothing new, but still!
It doesn’t help that they look familiar to him.
The older man is determined to figure out what he did to this person.
So far no one has managed to have a lick of luck on their side.
Not even a clue.
…Well, there is one person who does have a clue.
Logan.
Fearless and Magento had a similar scent.
Too similar to be a coincidence…
…But he’ll keep quiet for now…

Do ambulon and first aid think there the cause of wobbles getting depressed?
No they don't.
They both know Wobbles has been struggling with depression for a while. Even before they all met.
The medics hate seeing Wobbles down in the dumps and try their best to help in their own ways.

Ambulon and First Aid vs Drunk Wobbles
SFW, Platonic, Romantic, Mention of intoxication, Please drink responsibly and at legal age, Slight Angst, Cybertronian reader
MTMTE
First Aid and Ambulon knew something was up when Whirl of all bots called.
Something about picking up Wobbles.
They figured that Wobbles had started falling apart in the bar again and grabbed their equipment.
They both arrived to Swerve’s to find something very odd and rare.
Ambulon and First Aid stand frozen in place, drinking up the scene in front of them. Wobbles was half lying on a table with a microphone in servo. Several bots are just watching them ‘sing’. Wobbles: “I aM aN oBjEcT iN mOtIOn! I’vE lOsT aLl EmOtIOn!” Ambulon: “Are they…?” Whirl comes from behind and swings both his arms around the medic laughing. Whirl: “Drunk off their pedes? Absolutely!” Wobbles: “My TwO lEgS aRe BrOkEn! bUt LoOk At Me DaNcE!” First Aid: “How much—” Rewind and Swerve: “32 drinks.” Ambulon jumps a bit at the minibot’s appearance. Swerve: “I don’t know how they got 32 drinks either! I just served 3, suddenly they have 31 more!” First Aid winces a bit when Wobbles drops the mic on their face. Whirl: “Rewind, you filming this?” Rewind: “Every second.”
The medics got a summarized version of what happened thanks to Swerve… after interpreting a bunch of rambling.
Wobbles had walked in the bar with Whirl.
Looking a bit down in the dumps too.
Whirl had bought Wobbles a drink and they started talking.
Then out of nowhere Whirl wanted to do a drinking game with Wobbles.
Wobbles, surprisingly, agreed.
Wobbles ended up fully drunk at 32 drinks and now they were singing into a broken microphone.
Wobbles looks up and spots the medic and SQUEALS!
Wobbles: Aid! Ambby! You’re here!” They make grabby hands at the pair. Ambulon blinks before walking over to the drunken bot. They giggle as Ambulon steadily set them up straight. They lean into his chassis. Wobbles: “Hey handsome~” Ambulon feels his frame getting hotter as they wink and give him a lopsided smile. First Aid: “Yeah we aren’t doing that now.” First Aid slips an arm around Wobbles waist and hoists them up. Ambulon slips another arm around Wobbles. Wobbles rolls their helm to look at First Aid. First Aid: “Wow, you’ve gotten stronger. Have you been doing that workout from that Wrecker’s magazine?” First Aid: “And we are out of here!”
The bots started making their way to the medbay.
They weren’t going to risk putting Wobbles in their habsuite alone.
Primus knows that they’d trip over that bowling ball in their room going to the door.
Wobbles was incoherently rambling in a low voice.
Occasionally complimenting First Aid on the good work he’s been doing and cheekily flirting with Ambulon.
Ambulon’s frame is on fire.
First Aid also teases his co worker by adding more fuel for the flame.
Ambulon feels betrayal as Wobbles coos at him.
They finally managed to get to the med bay.
Wobbles is placed on the med slab. Wobbles blinks confused as they let them go. First Aid goes to get some supplies for the hangover. Ambulon goes to get something comfier for Wobbles. The medics freeze hearing Wobbles start to cry. First Aid is the first to get to them. First Aid: “Wobbles? Wobs what happened?” Wobbles: “I- I’m go—gonna miss you guys whe—when you leave.” Ambulon: “What do you mean leave?” Wobbles: “No one—one stays wi—with me for long. Everyone leaves me in the—the end. It—its only a matter of time before you—you realize it. N—no one wants a--a wobble bot…” Wobbles vents hard before continuing. Wobbles: “I’m gonna be a—a—alone forever. Gonna go offline cold and alone.” Ambulon cuts them off by hugging them hard. Wobbles just cries on his shoulder. First Aid joins in. Ambulon: “We aren’t going anywhere Wobbles.” First Aid: “Overlord himself could try and keep us apart and we’d still come for you. You aren’t alone Wobbles. Never…” SNORE! Wobbles fell asleep while they were talking. Ambulon carefully sets them on the slab. First Aid: “… Can you try and tell them to see Rung?” Ambulon: “I’ll do my best First Aid. I’ll do my best.”

Liaison doing cyber first aid while on call to medbay doin some wack shit to keep someone alive. They're doing their best, but they are so so small plz help. Fucking jumping on someone's fuel pump like a god damn trampoline like cpr or welding someone kinda poorly but it won't be infected in the battlefield. The calls are always the hardest to comprehend so the medics just see the liaison's comm come up and go directly to coordinates before talking cause it's like "*bounce* hey im bouncing on *bounce* whirl's fuel pump again *bounce* we're behind a big ro- Hi first aid" *click*
I could just FEEL the Stress this Buddy would have.
Hope you enjoy!
Human Buddy doing Cybertronian first aid
SFW, Platonic, Mention of injuries', Human reader
MTMTE
Buddy was just a bit curious about the first aid class Ratchet was going to be holding.
They didn’t expect them to actually be invested in this.
Or did they think about talking to the resident medics about the subject.
And definitely not trying to find which flashcards match the terms of the diagram of a servo.
Buddy is lying on First Aid’s lap. Buddy: “How do you do all of this?” First Aid: “Believe me I don’t know how either.” Velocity: “Its going to be a bit hard, but you’ll get it.” Buddy groans as they flop back down on First Aid’s lap. Buddy: “I can’t do anything!” First Aid and Velocity have flashbacks to studying for their medical exams.
Good news they did get a certification for official bot aid.
Bad news was that as soon as they got certified, all of their friends started getting injured.
At first it wasn’t that bad.
Tailgate has a small mesh wound on his knee?
A bit of precise welding, some buffing and its good as new!
Now, comparing that to someone gushing out energon… Buddy was near frantic.
They’re small!
There is only so much they can do while running around on their tiny legs!
Brainstorm was on the floor wincing at the slightly shaky welding job Buddy was doing with the Cybertronian equivalent of a small lighter. Brainstorm: “Would you- ouch! Would it hurt for you to be a bit steadier—hey!” Buddy, who is tired of holding the lighter above their head while wadding through some energon squints their eyes. Buddy: “I’ll be steadier when I can feel my arms again. Now quite squirming!”
After the 5th accident of Buddy having to do emergency aid, Ratchet gave them a com line that would go directly to the med bay.
That way any free medic would go and find them.
Buddy treats this line like a national treasure.
But the worst cases of emergency aid they had to do was out on the battlefield.
At least most of the time they had their suit with them, so most of the heavier items was lessened.
Buddy uses their jet pack on Cyclonus’s pede to try and weld the wound shut. Buddy: “How in the world did you get stabbed in the pede!? You fight in the sky!” Cyclonus grunts a bit in pain. Buddy is just trying to keep everything together. They reach for the com line. Buddy: “Any medic—Woah stay still!—I’m with Cyclonus—I swear to Primus if you try to transform here I will wield you in your sleep!—behind the rock formation that looks like a giant ant!” First Aid: “What’s an ant?”
Did you know that you could do CPR on a bot?
Neither did Buddy.
They didn’t even know that was a possibility!
Yet here they were, jumping up and down near Whirl’s fuel pump.
Buddy is jumping furiously on Whirl’s frame. Buddy: “What *bounce* made you *bounce* think that *bounce* drinking an entire *bounce* case of Nightmare fuel *bounce* was a good idea!? *bounce* *bounce*. Thankfully Velocity got their call and was running towards them. Buddy: “I swear Whirl *bounce* if you leave us like this *bounce* I Will go to *bounce* whatever afterlife you have *bounce* and drag you back to throttle you myself!”
Buddy is so tired and exhausted.
They start thinking that they have some sort of cosmic bad luck because of all the close calls they’ve had.
Their sleep schedule is messed up from waiting in the med bay for their friends to have the okay from Ratchet.
Their limbs are sore from holding heavy objects and running around.
And they still have to get their usual workload done!
Buddy is so close to tears when Magnus starts to point out some grammatical errors.
He had to stop mid-way because Buddy looked like they were going to burn the desk while sobbing.
They just need some sleep…
Buddy wakes up groggily and starts to get ready. They open the door to find a data pad and a Rodimus star. They brought it in and started reading it. It had multiple thank you notes from everyone they helped. Buddy can’t help a smile creeping up to their face. Buddy: “Softies…” There was a video attachment which they played. Every bot they helped: “Thanks Buddy!” Magnus pipes up: “You have the rest of the day to collect yourself.” Rodimus next to him: “He means you have a free day! Enjoy it!” The video ends. Buddy has some happy tears. They looked at the Rodimus star. It read, ‘For being the best human medic on the ship.’

Hi! Glad that the requests are open! Happy late Thanksgiving Day!
What about a Cybertronian Buddy with Wolverine's abilities? You know, retractable claws, healing factor, enhanced senses? Looking tough as nails, yet a big ol' overprotective softy? That would be a great addition to your collection of Buddies!
Oh, you can make Buddy (him) to take a special liking to the Team Prime kiddos (TFP)
Hope you have a good day!
P.S.: the name's Casey. Your writing is awesome!)))
Hi there Casey! And a Happy Late Thanksgiving to you too!
Hope you enjoy!
Bot Buddy who is like Wolverine
SFW, Platonic, Mention of injuries, Cybertronian reader
TFP
Buddy was one of the last outliers to join the Autobots.
There used to be other outliers around, not a lot but enough numbers to notice.
Now as far as he could tell, Buddy was the last one left.
The bot was a peculiar outlier.
Most outliers had just one thing that set them apart from the average bot.
Buddy had a multitude of abilities.
For one, his frame seemed to mend even the deepest of stab wounds.
Something very unusual for a Cybertronian
Buddy stares unbothered by a large slash across his chassis. Bumblebee: “Are you okay?!” Buddy: “Eh.” Bumblebee: “What do you mean ‘Eh’!? You need a medic!”
Buddy’s servo’s had retractable ‘claws’, something he made as his signature weapon on the battlefield.
They could slash through some of the hardest and densest metals know to Cybertron.
Buddy: “Hey Screamer! You want to see my servo transform?” Starscream gets the birdy. Starscream: “What is—ACK!” Buddy leaps to the Seeker and tries to slash him with the birdy. Starscream: “How dare you—WILL YOU STOP DOING THAT! I DON’T EVEN KNOW WHAT YOU’RE DOING!”
But probably one of the most uncanny ability Buddy could do was sense danger.
He didn’t have a scanner or and readings, he just knew something was going to come and it wasn’t friendly.
Buddy suddenly stops in his tracks. Helm finals twitching and tensing. His optics go wide. Buddy: “GET DOWN!” Tackles Bulkhead out of the way of incoming missile attacks. Buddy: “BULKHEAD GET YOUR BLASTED FENDER OFF THE GROUND AND RUN!”
The bot arrived on Earth shortly after most of Team Prime made it to Earth.
It took some time to get adjusted to team life once again, but it came just in time for the arrival of the kids.
Now, Buddy had already shown a bit of a soft spot towards Bumblebee in the beginning.
But no one thought much about it, everyone had a soft spot for the youngest bot.
With the children around, their fellow guardians were a bit worried about what Buddy’s reaction would be.
The bot wasn’t too found of humans after some had egged him in his alt mode.
The kids felt a bit uneasy seeing the bot glaring at them for a couple of days.
Jack: “Hey Arcee, what’s going on with… umm… him?” Arcee looks where Jack gestured. Buddy was brooding in the corner while buffing some old dents out. Arcee: “You mean Buddy?” Jack: “Yeah… why has he been all… what’s the word?” Miko pops up next to him. Miko: “Brooding? A Stick in the mud? Looking like a Con double agent?” Bulkhead: “Miko! Buddy isn’t a spy.” Miko: “Could have fooled me.” Arcee: “Buddy is just like that Miko. He’s actually been better these past few days.” Jack: “This is better? I’d hate to see him on a bad day.” Bulkhead: “Buddy’s been in a good mood since you guys showed up now that I think about it.” Miko: “Ha! Yeah right! He probably wants to kick us for being around.” Arcee and Bulkhead recall Buddy carefully holding a sleeping Raf, looking so stressed because he didn’t know what to do and didn’t want to wake him up. Arcee and Bulkhead: “Sure…”
Jack and Raf had no problem with the grumpy bot.
Buddy had attempted to bond with them after awkwardly asking if they wanted to join him on a drive so they wouldn’t be couped up in the base too long.
Buddy was parked in an empty lot letting Raf and Jack eat a bit in his alt mode. Jack: “You seriously don’t mind?” Buddy: “I don’t see the problem.” Raf: “Thanks!” Buddy: “… Just try and not to eat anything glittery or those spicy chips.” Jack: “What’s wrong with spicy chips?” Buddy: “The smell stays on the seat for days and I’m not exactly too fond of that.”
Miko feels like he targets her in particular.
Buddy always seemed to be around the corner whenever she tried to do something deemed ‘Mischievous’.
He has absolutely no problem scolding the girl for doing things she wasn’t supposed to do.
Buddy has Miko in his servo. She is kicking and tries to get out of his grip. Buddy puts her down and crosses his arms. Buddy: “What in the name of Alpha Trion where you thinking!?” Miko crosses her arms. Miko: “I just wanted to help!” Buddy: “By what!? By running into the groundbrigde all willy nilly, head first straight into battle, provoking STARSCREAM of all bot! WITH A ROCK! Are you trying to get yourself terminated!?” Wheeljack and Bulkhead try to step in. Buddy sends them a glare. Buddy: “No! You are not saving her this time! She needs to know there are consequences for these kinds of actions!”
Yes, they butt heads a lot.
Miko is convinced that he hates her.
Buddy doesn’t, he just worries for her safety as the human with the least amount of self-preservation.
Bulkhead does take some time to defend his teammate and friend.
Buddy had lost a lot of bots he considered family, he just didn’t wan this new one to go up in flames either.
The girl does tone down the aggression a bit and starts leaving doodles for Buddy to find.
Buddy acts like he throws them away.
… But a little yellow bot told her that he keeps every picture in a special drawer in his habsuite.
Tumblr media
You have no idea how much I want to give this Buddy a Deadpool partner! I need to start thinking on ideas!
