Since Deadlock met Ratchet, he can finally sleep peacefully again :3

TFP Ratchlock

Ratchet has been tasked on going patrol mostly for his own health as the mech has been stuck in base for almost a month. So while he lazily drives around Jasper keeping an optic out for trouble while also grumbling to himself a grey sports car pulls up next to him.

At first Ratchet ignores it just thinking a human is just heading down the same road as himself that's until he notices the Decepticon badge on the car's hood. Quickly changing course Ratchet starts heading towards open road as far away from the humans as possible, he knows if this ends up in a fight he doesn't want to blow cover. But a fight never happens instead the Con just slowly follows while also laughing to themself that's when they make a move, suddenly pulling in front of the medic they transformed into their Alt-Mode while also having a wide smug smirk on their face.

Deadlock just stands proudly with his hands on his hips while Ratchet just quietly sits idly still processing on what's going on. "Did ya miss me Ratty?~" Deadlock teases as he gently taps Ratchet's hood forcing a small grumble from the medic. Ratchet then finally transforms into his root mode just rolling his optics before pulling his secret conjunx into a tight hug. "Yes I missed you a lot, kid"

Jsiogoqpririe Ratty!!! Get it into high gear!!!

Please, the “I didn’t know I was pregnant”, Dratchlock style, “everyone is dumb, ESPECIALLY RATCHET” edition:

So, I had this idea/dream where Dratchet was a thing right after Drift was rescued, up to the Deadlock stage (then, they lose sight of each others until MTMTE).

Ratcher get sparked back in Rodion, he tries to tell Drift but he just became Deadlock… somehow some senators finds out about Ratchet’s state and they terminate it because “medics can’t have sparklings..” (something about losing focus on the care of their patients, especially if they are self centered, pompous pricks).

Ratchet is crushed but theres no time in war to mourn.

He and Deadlock keep bunching into each others, Deadlock notices how Ratchet’s act around sparkling or younger bots… one day he asks if Ratchet had ever had sparklings (cause he remembers a long list of messages, all saying “I’ve something important to tell you!!!).

Ratchet answers, dead serious: Medics can’t have sparklings.

Somehow, Deadlock understands.

Skipping forward, to the very epilogue of LL, Ratchet and Drift are fragging freely, they’re both old as balls, and sadly, can’t get sparked.

At some point, Ratchet gets a little too frisky even for Drift, but they don’t really worry about it. Rodimus join, and everything seems fine.

After some time (cause off course, their pregnancies last fucking years), after a very intense coupling with the ambulance in the middle, Ratchet feels strange, his abdomen start cramping and his pussy hurts… they all think it related to the intense fucking, but after some time, pacing, confusion and panic from Rodimus and Drift, Ratchet pops out first one, then another sparklings… the sparklings are small (still way bigger than whatever Ratchet has been putting up his valve), and Ratchet’s platings never bowed out, and his last reframe was already rounder and softer…

They’re all very confused, especially First Aid, who can’t believe how little maintenance Ratchet does on himself.

ooOOoh that's what i'm talking about baby. Ratchet is perfect for this... He's old and he believes the abortion he had to have back at the start of the war might have straight up sterilized him (the autobots couldn't have had their best medic incapacitated by carrying, after all, so it would make sense they'd take the ability from him in the first place...) so he wouldn't worry about leading a carefree sex life with Drift. Besides, Drift has it in his charts that his transfluid is weak. Rodimus, though? Oh, Ratchet definitely didn't take Rodimus into account.

mhmmm I can imagine them all exhausted after some really intense, messy interfacing and Ratchet is panting more than normal... He feels odd cramps down in his abdomen, valve gushing. He noticed that he'd been much wetter today than normal but maybe he just begrudgingly admitted to his speedsters that he's missed them during his shift and didn't think much of it. Drift sees him wince but Ratchet just brushes him off, tells him they just might have gotten a little too rough with it, even if they all know that that's not true. They didn't do anything out of the ordinary...

After a while the pain just gets unbearable. Roddy and Drift want to call First Aid but Ratchet insists he's fine. Maybe he even tries to get up to prove it but he ends up doubling over himself, and then the first sparkling slides out of him with a single strong push, accompanied by a puddle of birthing fluids. Drift and Rodimus are speechless. Ratchet just pushes again and its twin falls out of him in quick succession... the pain finally stops and he's left staring between his legs, at the freshly birthed babies, wondering. What the fuck.

First Aid probably bursts into the room shortly after – either Drift or Rodimus or both have called him in secret because Ratchet really didn't look fine. He sees the birthing fluids covering the floor and the bed and the two sparklings held shakily in Ratchet's hands and he just sighs. Doctors make the worst fucking patients, man. How could he have not known he was pregnant? He's lucky the sparklings came out relatively healthy because at his age, having a complication-less carriage was a one in a million chance.

I was so excited to write for the TF Big Bang along with @helenadorf​ who created such a gorgeous art piece! Here’s a bit of a preview under the cut:

“I know you’re there, Deadlock,” came a voice from ahead of them. Out of the darkness slowly walked the green-and-black spiky frame of Lockdown. His red optics flashed as he saw the other figure. “I don’t believe it. Ratchet?” He grinned as he chuckled. “I suppose that makes sense since this is an Autobot ship, but Primus is smiling on me today.” He reached the claw serving as his right hand out to lightly brush the medic’s face. “You might as well turn yourself in, seeing as really no harm is going to come to you. I’m sure the Autobots will pay a higher price than the Decepticons to bring you home.”

“Like I’d trust you,” Ratchet growled, folding his arms.

Lockdown furrowed his brow. He pointed his claw at Deadlock. “Like you’d trust him? What has the universe come to, huh? The best and brightest Decepticon, the standard to which we should all strive!” He sneered. “Now back to being gutter trash.”

Deadlock quivered in place as he uttered a low growl, his fangs protruding slightly over his lips. “You have no idea what you’re talking about.”

“Maybe, maybe not.” Lockdown shrugged. “But business is business. Honestly, I don’t particularly care what Megatron used to say about you or even what he’s saying about you now. You’re just another bounty to me, and I will collect. Now—” He cried out as a bolt hit the center of his forehelm.

Ratchet stowed his pistol again and grabbed Deadlock’s hand. “C’mon!” They dashed past the bounty hunter, who groaned as he cradled his helm in his hands. They vaulted over several more piles of rubble as they approached the starboard maintenance shaft.

“We’re going to be easy targets as we climb down!” Ratchet hissed as he helped open the panel for the manual release.

“So, what exactly was your plan back there, hot shot?” Deadlock whispered as he clasped the release handle. “Blinding him by making him mad? You can’t…” He groaned as they both started to pull. “...kill him that way.”

The release lever wasn’t moving as easily as the other one. Ratchet put all of his weight into it. “Oh, feel free at any time… to demonstrate why… you were in the Conclave.” The hatch suddenly flew open, and thankfully there was no fire this time.

Deadlock peered into the maintenance shaft. He paused briefly and then looked straight back at the medic. “Fine. I’ve got an idea, but you’re going to have to trust me.”

Trust him? It’s not like I have a lot of options here. Ratchet nodded. “Alright.”

Deadlock took a deep breath. “I’m going to need you to hang on to me.”

If you’re doing the V day kiss prompt, could I have L3 with Dratchlock? :3c

Surprise smooch 😆
