PART 2

Part 1 < Part 2 > Part 3

[13mary-gold]

PART 1

Roddy uses affectionate nicknames for his parents:

Carrier - Carry

Sir - Sy

This is one interpretation of my AU where Roddy is the child of Ratchet and Deadlock (in a... sadder version of it)

Hot Rod was born in the midst of the war, roughly 2 million years after it began

After long discussions, Ratchet ultimately took him to live at the Autobot base, where it would be safer for the young spark. No one knows how the Decepticons would react to Deadlock having a sparkling, and too many might see this “weakness” as something to exploit

Roddy knows who his carrier is and has met with him a few times

Autobots know he’s Ratchet’s sparkling, but they have no idea who his carrier is

Decepticons, for now, don’t know about him at all

During one of the battles, Deadlock is captured. While the higher-ups of the Autobots are preoccupied with more urgent matters, Roddy, following the call of his spark, finds his way to him ♡

Part 1 > Part 2

PART 3

The tension is rising

I have some ideas for a few more chapters, but after that… the story seems to hit a dead end. I have a few directions in mind, but they all lead toward a slower, longer storyline—one I’m not sure I’ll have the patience for

Originally, I meant this to be a short 'What if...' 🥲

So, for now, the story’s future is still a bit unclear

That said, if anyone has ideas or suggestions, I’d love to hear them! Whether it's about this AU, the story direction, or anything else, all thoughts are welcome. Your perspectives often inspire new twists and possibilities I hadn’t considered, and that’s always such a joy to explore. So feel free to share—whether it’s big ideas or small details, it’s all appreciated! ♡✨️

PART 4

I know my dialogues aren't very informative. I'll try to improve that in the next chapters

Also, I plan to post written sketches for this mini-comic after about two more chapters to ensure I convey everything I intended

Part 1 | Part 3 < Part 4

[13mary-gold]

A quick sketches of an idea inspired by 'You And Me and Ambulance Makes Three'

Deadlock, who has disappeared to an unknown place, suddenly appears at some meeting about the truce, to silently lean against the wall with a bundle of incomprehensible blankets in his hands and accompanied by mechs armed to the teeth

But the bundle of the blanket is too inquisitive and reveals itself quite quickly

And Ratchet, who had no idea about little Roddy, gets a deep shock

[13mary-gold]

A sweet gift is waiting for someone 🤫

I think it's easy to guess whose idea it was XD

[13mary-gold]

We've had snow falling for a few days now. Everything around is white and fluffy ❄️

So... here are some wintery looks that have been spinning in my head this whole time

The kid is Aeon, or just Io

He's Drift and Ratchet's sparkling, and one of my 'Next G(eneration)' characters

[13mary-gold]

Finally got around to drawing something for MerMay

I wanted to experiment a little with the difference in sizes and make Drift as white as possible.... like an angel

I love his 'wings' 🥺

And I still don't understand how to draw digitally TT^TT

And another variant

[13mary-gold]

Drift and little Roddy 🥺

[13mary-gold]

Just a cute sketch

💕

[13mary-gold]

Love this art so much 💕

Someday I will draw properly my original Ratchet design, but for now there are only old sketches

[13mary-gold]

A little more TFP Rodimus🔥

[13mary-gold]

Just random sketches of Deadlock

I especially like this one ⬇️

He looks like a grumpy, offended kitten. Sweet bun 🥺
