#Predaking has issues

[steelthroat]

For my wonderful @vivificanousprime

So Prime Shockwave is now stuck in G1 dimension because of some weird experiment, and he bonds with the only slightly smart mech he finds, Soundwave, of course... his G1 counterpart is too goofy to be engaged with.

They are trying to make their new relationship work, and they start listing things they have in common... then they make out (don't ask how, we don't wanna know)

(fear not this is far from finished... but I underestimated both Shockwave's design and how hard it is to draw digitally. So here'sa sneak peek of a small comic)

[viper-commander]

lol just realized Predaking is the transformers equivalent of Frankenstein except he’s pretty.

[riskyraiker]

helloooo!! My request is kinda small, but can I request TFP decepticons reactions to a fem reader with a tiger alt mode?? (Colors are just white and black) she’s aggressive, but also gentle to ones she trusts and loves. Hope you don’t mind adding slight romance in it😓 Ty!<33

Reader with a tiger alt mode + the decepticons

Oh my god i love this😭🫶 btw there will not be anything about starscream except him hatin' predaking and reader :D since they're both like animals. Hope you enjoy!!

CW: there's a few dirty jokes so beware!! XD

-----------------------------------

Megatron

Finds you a good weapon in the battlefields ofc, but he does want you to be in best shape after every battle. Admires your strength to even defeat the last prime and almost eliminating him.

He rarely needs saving, but when you turned up, ripped optimus away from megatron, something lit up in him. The need of having you.

Talked to you after the whole battle and gave you best treatment he could with ordering knockout!!

The way you're actually gentle and caring didn't interest him before, but now he actually finds you slightly cute if he dares to admit it to himself.

Does like your choice of colour and style. Tigers do represent strength, courage and commanding respect! Like himself.

If he ever got the chance he would tell you he likes you and he will have you in his arms the rest of the day/night

Is really dominant in a relationship of course, but he knows how to be caring atleast.

If you insist of becoming his personal bodyguard he'd let you. Not because he's "weak", but so everyone knows not to challenge him even clearer.

Starscream yelling anything bad about you BANG He'll be getting treated by knockout soon enough. It was either you or Megatron but who cares, you both kick ass.

Any Autobot scum dare to hurt you? He WILL have their helm in under a week.

He actually loves you even if he doesn't say it :) You're on his good side with soundwave!

Soundwave

Does he care at first when he meets you? uhhh, no :) but when you start to check up on him while he works does make his spark a bit warm.

Stalks where you are going once he starts to take interest in you, but not in a creepy way ofc! He wants to know if you're safe or fragging somebot

Finds you pretty when he has time to look at you. Black and white is pretty old style, but fancied after all this time.

If you get injured in a battle he will make the autobots chase laserbeak and he'll comes and gets you back to the nemesis.

If you stay a lot in tiger form he gives you pets if you ask. He ain't that mean and can't say no to that face. (He can :))

He serves Megatron with huge loyalty so he's a busy bot, hope you can live with that. (just stay in the room with him and cuddle his pedes in tiger form)

If he he's busy any other way laserbeak will stay with you. Your little baby bird :)

He doesn't speak so he will just display hearts on his or any other monitor close to you <3

He's just a sweet quiet bot with speaking issues xD

Dreadwing

Treats you decently at first which is so cute. Since you're caring, sweet and follow rules well he thinks you're not that bad.

Once he sees you beat half of the autobot team, he wanted to stay on your good side ALL THE TIME.

Once he catches interest ohhoh, you will be smitten!

I imagine he's more of a gentleman so he would let you go through doors first and help you when needed.

Patrols together? Do you even have to ask :)

Admires your style and the way the black and white bring the best parts of your frame out.

If you're big as a tiger jus give him a ride to battle and just chuckle at autobots' faces.

Spends time with you much as possible, but serving Megatron is most likely higher priority to him than you.

HAND KISSES TO SHOW AFFECTION!!!!!!!!

Injured and need help? It's already taken care of since Dreadwing is in the battlefield with you.

Does say that he loves you multiple times in the week. (Maybe even in a day)

Doesn't like starscream, never did and doesn't now either since he's always trash talking you down.

"Stupid pest! You trashed the whole control room! Can you do anything good in this primus forsaken ship!?!? I might aswell rip you spa-"

"Whose the second in command, starscream? You better shut your intake and not speak a WORD of my love like that again!"

That would turn me on WHO SAID THAT?! NOT ME :)))

Loves you unconditionally and shows it much as he can <3

You kept his knife/sword after he got killed :((

Knockout

"IS THAT A BEAUTIFUL PAINTJOB I SEE?!" his first reaction of you be like :D But like actually he loves it.

That's what he liked in you at first only, but once he gets to see your sweet and caring personality...oh he's probably passing out.

"Since you're the only medic here, I thought you'd like some help :)" You went to help Knockout with something and he didn't even ask? He must be in heaven/one with the all spark?? idfk

Imagine if you save his aft and his fabulous paintjob? He would give you big grin "So you do admire my paintjob, doll? I knew it ;)" Such a fragging dork he is

Go racing with him please!!! Your and Knockout's quality time is racing 100%

Oh and the drive-in theaters he mentioned in season 3! He takes you there for a "date" but doesn't say it is.

Just confessed a random day when you came to check up on him

"Helloooo Knockout, do you need any hel-" "I love you..." "I love you too dummy" *Smooch* Cute

Poor breakdown, now he's the third wheel :,) UNLESS POLYAMORY IS FINE WITH YOU ALL IS FINE ALL IS PERFECT <3<3<3<3

But when he dies you'll help Knockout with buffing :,( and support aswell.

The corniest couple of decepticons or any living cybertronian couples. Just cuteness everywhere nonethless!!!

Breakdown

He was intimated by you at first like he found Arachnid intimidating.

But once you show your sweet and caring side he lowers his walls. He also loves your style (And you already <3)

Talks about you to knockout and asks for advise since he's so clueless.

Seeing your strength in battle made his optics shaped like stars and he admired you for like a week after. He wants to challenge you, but holds his request back.

If your alternate form is a automobile...PLEASE GO FOR A DRIVE TOGETHER

He ain't got the balls to confess so ofc you made the first move

The big bot team in battles!! Go on and beat bulkheads aft and laugh together when you recall those fights back at nemesis (or when he's gone :(

POLYAMOROUS WOOOOOOO GET KNOCKOUT OVER HERE!!

Shows his love for you when there is not many bots around. (Professionalism!!) You're at work so behave!

Hugs, hugs, hugs and HUGS! He's a bigbuly bot so he gives good bear hugs <3

The only thing you have left of him is a pretty crystal he brought you before he died :((

Predaking

Another beast on nemesis? He makes sure you know who's stronger, mightier and loyal. But you managed to surprise him by actually being sweet once you get to know him.

Wants to protect you and if you both are in beast mode you WILL play fight

He might offer you a flight if you are nice enough to him

Fell in love with you when you bit Starscreams wing after he hit Predaking.

Most likely the deadliest duo on the ship unless Megatron joines too >:)

Autobots can go panic into a corner when you two show up on the battlefield :D It feels like a morning stretch to you two xD

You join Predaking if Shockwave decides to "borrow" him for a little bit and it makes his whole frame warm up.

Actually loves you show much and shows it even. SNUGGLES AND CUDDLING DURIN RECHARGE PLS

Wants to spend the future with you. And after the whole Megatron posessed by Unicron thing you both go and live on your own <3 Just him and you, no one else.

-----------------------------------------

AN: TWO POSTS IN ONE DAY WTF?!?!?! But here you go! Don't mind if the writing is a little scoodaddle, I wrote during the middle of the night and the next morning so it's what it is :)) Hope you like it and don't be afraid to request more!!!!<3333

[mychlapci]

been thinking about.. the twins laying eggs, but the egg is like. the proportions of kiwi eggs for reference:

why? idk dreadwing struggling and screaming, attempting to give birth to something most mechs would lay multiple eggs to match the size of is real hot..

Oh lord... Ok, but consider. Predaking is so so big. His eggs gotta be huge... And with how strong he is, obviously his eggs will be extraordinary as well. Perhaps he can only manage to push one large egg into Dreadwing. A very large egg. By the time it's ready to be laid, Dreadwing looks pregnant with several sparklings. It's as big as his entire torso... giving birth to it will be a nightmare.

Predaking will hold his legs as far back as he can so his valve has room to bulge out, but it barely helps. Dreadwing's struggling with getting just the tip through, calipers all snapped and broken and mesh torn as the egg is slowly forced out of him over the course of several days. His valve is gaping so wide afterwards, Predaking could shove an arm in there without any issue and feel the inside of his gestation tank... A bot Dreadwing's size or maybe even larger could have easily shoved their entire head into his poor, ruined pussy...

[dragonridernoobie]

Can I request TFP decepticons with a fem reader who has anger issues??? Ty!

Sure! I will try my best!

I'm gonna make them cybertronian since you dident say if reader was human or not. I hope you are ok with this!!!

TransformersPrimeXReader

Megatron

I think reader. Would has been with the decpticons for a while, and everyone knows she has a shorter fuse than megatron.

And that's saying somthing.

I think megatron would actally try to tred carefully around reader

Since she is the only cybertronian (besides optimus and predaking) that can hurt him

When she does get angry, megatron will tell reader to go calm down.

Rip starscream if he is caught by her

Starscream

Starscream would actally fear reader.

Just because she reminds him of megatron.

He would ster clear of reader at any cause.

Unless he is paired with her.

If he is, he will try everything to stay on her good side.

He will remmber his place if he pisses her off.

Rip starscream 2x.

Knockout

He will know how to help reader.

He will tell reader ways to help her calm down.

Reader will probably go to him and breakdown to calm down.

Best friends.

They would still walk carefully around her though.

They ain't Immune to readers rage.

They throw starscream underneath the buss.

Rip starscream 3x

Breakdown

Same thing with knockout.

But instead of self care, he would help reader get rid of rage thru fighting and training.

Breakdown now has a spar buddy.

BFF's

He will keep his distant if reader is upset since he knows he can be thrown around.

He throws starscream underneath the bus to.

Rip starscream 4x

Soundwave

He doesn't talk so he can't get reader mad.

[aka-indulgence]

DUDE i never thought about the medical stuff with Soundwave!! Now I'm even crazier. This show I swear 😭

Breakdown loses an eye and we literally have an ep where Megs goes "Did you drop it you one eyed oaf?" like please, he's trying his best! Knockout gets HIT BY A TRAIN and Megs tells him he doesn't gaf and he needs to make sure Soundwave and Laserbeak are okay. Meanwhile he's in the medbay with Soundwave watching him get checked out? Bro??? And then later he specifically makes sure to remind Knockout (still covered in train scratches btw) that Soundwave needs a new visor. They're so hand in unlovable hand.

EXACTLY!!!

Breakdown gets kidnapped by humans and experimented on and Megatron says “skill issue”

Knockout comes back scratched as all hell and the first thing he says (after KO tells him he doesn’t have the relic) is to Fix Soundwave. Also may I add after they find a grenade in Laserbeak Megatron very calmly tells Knockout to get rid of it while he stays with Soundwave.

I really like his “Soundwave” voice… it’s so gentle and almost playful at times… they’re besties 😭

Also I just want to add that it sounds like Megatron has a similar tone of speaking with Shockwave, calling him his “most prized engineer” and MAKING SURE HE DOESN’T GO TO THE BATTLEFIELD!! He hears that Shockwave was *this* close to fighting Optimus and says “hell no you’re not dying on me you’re too important.”

He may not be Megatron’s bestie like Soundwave is, but he also gets privileges Decepticons don’t usually have. I know he calls Shockwave for work reasons but the fact that he sounds kinda casual with him and even says “Oh, no one important” when Starscream interrupts him, idk he sounds gentler with him? More respectful definitely. Constantly complimenting Shockwave’s work even if they don’t go according to plan (Predaking doesn’t take down the autobots on first try but he doesn’t get mad in spite of Starscream purposefully trying to rile him up). He’s a Decepticon that visibly makes him happy to see (he seemed neutral reacting to Dreadwing’s arrival)

I just like that my favorite guys are also Megatron’s favorites C:

[cozzzynook]

May I offer some Forbidden Predabee? :>

Bumblebee grew up in a village that is well known to hunt down mecha-beasts and predacons for the Senate, they have been doing this for thousands of years so Bee never saw an issue with it as a sparkling. One day he heads out into the near by forest to train for the ceremonial hunt, an ancient tradition that lets young hunters prove themselves and those who get selected get to hunt their first predacon with the chief of the village.(Optimus) Being rather giddy and wanting to prove himself that he could be a hunter and not just a scout Bee spends most of the afternoon training not noticing he was being watched from the treeline.

With a quick swing with his sword Bumblebee slips hitting the ground hard before letting out an annoyed groan, this the 3rd time it has happened and the yellow bot is getting rather frustrated with himself. He gets up and angrily kicks his sword to the other side of the clearing before sitting down a tree stump before putting his face in his servos. 'Why can't he just get it right? Everyone else can fight with their swords just fine but not him...how is he going to prove himself at the ceremonial hunt if he can't use a sword?' Lost in thought Bee doesn't hear the sound of heavy footsteps growing closer behind and nearly jumps out of his plating when a talon gently taps him on the shoulder. Whipping around Bumblebee is suddenly standing face to face with a predacon.

"Having trouble with your sword skills I see?" Predaking glanced at the sword before turning to face the yellow bot again. "You won't get far in battle with that kind of trouble" He flicks his wings while he narrows his optics at the bot.

Bee nervously looks between the predacon and his sword wondering it was worth the risk to try and rush for it. However a gentle clawed servo grabs his shoulder gently guiding him back into the open before returning his sword back to him. The predacon smirks flicking his wings again this time in amusement. "Allow me to help you little bug, After all if you wish to become a great warrior its better to learn from one of the best."

From then on Bumblebee and Predaking trained with each other in secret and slowly with time Bee gets better with his skills while also getting closer to Predaking as well. Eventually Bee ends up falling for the predacon and it doesn't take long until the pair are also sneaking out long into the night. However the day of the ceremonial hunt arrives and Bee is suddenly dreading it as he learned that predacon's are more than vicious beasts who destroy everything in their paths and he doesn't want to hurt Predaking by slaying one of his own kind, so Bumblebee comes up with a plan. During the hunt he makes his way towards a little cave hoping to fail the hunt by hiding out then return to the camp with nothing hoping it will be enough, but as he quietly hides he suddenly hears a strange hissing coming from deeper within the cave.

A large Void spider hisses and charges the intruder not being pleased that someone disturbed its nest. With a sudden yelp Bee draws his sword and begins fighting for his life. He is able to doge and cut away one of it's legs before being bitten by its long fangs on his shoulder. He cries out in pain but begins feeling strange and light headed as the venom slowly fills his fuel lines, before he blacks out he hears a sudden roar and the sound of snapping jaws followed by a high pitched screeching noise. When he re opens his optics he finds himself safely tucked away in a warm nest with his wound patched up. Slowly he sits up looking around the nicely decorated den before spotting Predaking who is busy cleaning away the last remains of his dinner in his fangs.

"Heh, I guess I owe you one...but you didn't have to take me back to your den" Bee gives a sheepish smile as Predaking slowly transforms back into his root-mode before walking up to Bumblebee. "You could have just left me outside my village, I'm sure someone would have found me just fine."

The predacon shakes his helm before gently cupping the yellow mech's cheek with his clawed servo. "My little bug, I would not consider myself a true protector if I left you alone and at the mercy of the forest." He then gently places a soft kiss on Bee's helm before gazing lovely at those bright blue optics. "I truly and deeply love you...and I would gladly throw myself at a thousand foes to protect you my dear"

Bumblebee suddenly feels his face grow hot as his door wings give a little flutter. With greedy servos Bee suddenly pulls Predaking into a burning kiss before lying back to allow the larger mech to join him in the nest. It is long after dark when Bumblebee finally returns back to the village, he is suddenly greeted by his Carrier Optimus and the village's medic before he is guided towards the Medic's hut. Optimus is asking question after question about what happened in the forest and why he seemed to sluggish and tired. Bee isn't paying any attention he is just happily humming to himself as he sends waves of comfort, reassurance and joy through his spark bond to his secret Conjunx, now only if he could get Carrier to stop worrying about him for once.

Hope you enjoyed this little Au idea. All those Barbarian and fantasy Au's got to me lol.

Oh my gosh i love this idea!

Whoever you are, thank you for sharing i love this so much

Chapter 2: The Aftermath

Word count: [1656]

Content Warning: [Sparkling deaths, grief, mourning]

He didn’t know…

Primus, how could he have known?

He emerges from the ground bridge, processor lagged from the unusual traveling method. Immediately, he perks up and for a moment, he couldn’t believe his own optics. It couldn’t be, but Shockwave is releasing the amniotic fluids from the containment chambers! It spills all over the laboratory floor in the hopes of ridding the evidence of the now declared failure of “Project Predacon”.

He stands tall, staring with wide optics at the sight of the Decepticon in the process of destroying everything in such a careless manner. “S-Shockwave… What are you doing!? It’s not time! It can’t be! You said-“

Another ground bridge opens in the distance. He charges at the Decepticon scientist, demanding an explanation for his actions but he runs, fleeing towards the active ground bridge. A swipe of his sharp claws but he misses and the Decepticon disappear. “Shockwave!” His vocalizer snaps. “No, what are you doing? Focus!” There’s even bigger issues to worry over as the fire spreads. With the chamber units decommissioned, the Predacon pups start to awaken.

He couldn’t save all the little ones. There are too many, so little time as he breaks through the glass of the chamber units, for some were too disoriented or weak to do so on their own. He couldn’t afford to be slow and careful as he pulled them out with his claws. They squirm and shriek, scared and unknowing of what’s going on.

There is nobody to blame but himself as he hears their cries, the flames reaching the crates of synthetic energon. There was nothing else to do but grab who he could and tuck himself into a corner as the cavern laboratory exploded, shaking the earth, and silencing the voices that were crying out for him.

Predaking didn’t want to look as the earth settled, but he could imagine it. Mangled corpses of Predacon pups. Dead. Gone. Another attempt to exterminate his people as Cybertronians did eons ago.

He has never felt so drained, weakened and vulnerable, and yet unharmed… His chest plating rumbles deeply with mourn and yet anger so easily replaces the need to grieve as the two Autobots, Ultra Magnus and Wheeljack stand in defensive action.

“What have you done to my brethren! What have you done!?” His rage bursts, and his self-control is thrown away as he charges the Autobots, his massive frame barreling towards them with primal fury. Ultra Magnus hefted the golden Solus Hammer, its weight balanced in his servos as he prepared to meet the Predacon head-on.

With a thunderous clash, Predaking swung his claws at Ultra Magnus, the force of his blow sending shockwaves rippling through the air. Magnus braced himself, bringing down his hammer with all the strength of a Wrecker Commander. The impact reverberated through Predaking's frame, but he refused to relent, snarling and swiping at his adversaries with determination.

Meanwhile, Wheeljack danced agilely around Predaking's attacks. With a flick of his wrist, he unleashed his electrical whip, crackling with energy as it lashed out towards Predaking's vulnerable joints. But the Predacon's instincts were sharp, and he twisted away just in time, his claws grazing Wheeljack's armor as he countered with a powerful swipe.

The cavern echoed with the clang of metal on metal, the whir of servos, and the roar of engines as Predaking fought with all the fury of his kind. But Ultra Magnus and Wheeljack were seasoned warriors, and they met his onslaught with skill and determination, each blow calculated to weaken and disarm their formidable foe.

Yet Predaking fought on, driven by a primal need to protect his kin and avenge his fallen. With every strike, he pushed himself beyond his limits, tapping into reserves of strength and rage he never knew he possessed.

As Predaking fought with all his might, Ultra Magnus and Wheeljack began to gain the upper hand. Despite his ferocity, Predaking found himself outmaneuvered and overwhelmed by their combined assault. Ultra Magnus's giant hammer crashed down on Predaking's armor, sending him staggering back, while Wheeljack's electrical whip crackled around him, sapping his strength.

In a desperate bid to turn the tide, Predaking lunged at Ultra Magnus, intent on taking down the Autobot Commander. Suddenly, amidst the chaos, a cry pierced the air, the plaintive wail of a Predacon sparkling, calling out in fear and desperation. Predaking's optics flickered with alarm as he caught sight of the small figure darting dangerously close to the fray, as if to protect the larger Predacon with her tiny claws and squeaky chirps.

At that moment, something primal stirred within Predaking, a protective instinct that transcended his own pain and fury. With a roar, he threw himself between the sparkling and Ultra Magnus, shielding the young one from harm as he braced himself for another onslaught.

But in his weakened state, Predaking was vulnerable, and the hammer struck true, its impact rippling through Predaking's frame. With a roar of agony, he collapsed to the ground, his systems flickering as he fought to remain conscious. Meanwhile, Ultra Magnus recoiled in horror, realizing the danger he had unwittingly posed to the innocent Predacon.

The Predacon pup, as brave as she tried to be, whimpers and nudges her helm against Predaking’s.

Predaking lifts himself, joints groaning in protest, and his system warnings blaring. Still, he has enough sense to rise to his pedes upon seeing Optimus, who had arrived to the sudden conflict. His blaster is out, but nobody moves an inch.

The large Predacon did not have any time to continue fighting, when it’s much too dangerous and his injuries could end up severe. He transforms back and slinks to the huddle of trembling pups. Gently, he opens his mouth and carries them in his maw as a mother would to her little ones.

Without words, Optimus allows Predaking to escape, watching stoically as the draconic being soars into the open skies.

Landscapes of desert mountains and rocks shift into a forestry background. Predaking lowers himself towards a small clearing near a lake. His chest rumbles in a painful warble as he bows his helm and opens his mouth, permitting the little ones to squirm and crawl out onto the grass.

He quietly counts, and claws at the ground in anger. Not even half, Predaking saved… He refused to wallow in his own grief, not when his warmth and protection was needed right now.

He has received no communication with the Nemesis, radio silent. Nothing felt just, dragging his weary paws to check their condition. Spark aching, the Predacon lowers his helm and starts prodding them with his snout. They are in unfamiliar surroundings and desire guidance that he wasn’t equipped to give them. Cold, hungry, and chirping in fear.

What was he to do, losing everything and protecting what was left after the Decepticons discarded him with such ease.

Back amongst the Autobots, Ultra Magnus and Wheeljack get treated for their injuries. The Autobots gather in the medical bay as Ultra Magnus reports what had happened deep in the caverns. It becomes clear that Optimus’s decisions are being called to question.

“Prime, sir. You saw what was in the caverns. They weren’t grown Predacons, weapons for Megatron to exploit, but pups… sparklings…” It had been far too long since he had heard one chirp before. Ultra Magnus steels his regret, but everyone else seems to share his grievances. They haven’t had the presence of a youngling since Bumblebee, who was born in the battlefield, due to the dormancy of the Well.

“How many?” Optimus asks tenderly.

“Sir, would it have been any different if they were adults-”

The Wrecker Commander interrupts, “14, and the 10 under Predaking’s care.” Ultra Magnus was always very meticulous about details, and yet he did not discern that the Predacons inside the chamber units were hardly younglings, due to their large plating and curled up forms.

“We can’t just have Predaking out on the loose! There are human civilians to think about here, Prime.” Arcee couldn’t fathom as to why Optimus had decided to do nothing and look the other way when Predaking flew to Primus knows where.

“And the pups? What, you want us to finish the job and blow their sparks to scrap, Arcee? Why don’t you do it then, since you’re so keen?” Wheeljack snaps at her with sarcasm, shoving one of his explosives in her arms. She knew nothing of what he had seen. They acted as any little Cybertronian would, not marred by war or harsh ideals.

Her optics narrows. “All I’m saying is that we can’t afford to be naive. They are not ‘pups’ or ‘sparklings’ but destructive creatures that will end up hurting others.”

Ratchet steps in between the two bickering bots. “This isn’t about assigning any sort of blame. It’s about finding a solution. Optimus had a difficult decision to make, but there could be a way to salvage it.”

Wheeljack, voice heavy with tension, clenches his servos into fists. “Then what’s the plan? We can’t just sit here twiddling our thumbs while Predaking and those sparklings are out there. Ultra Magnus and I fought him, and he wasn’t exactly all cheery about making peace. In fact, he only stopped when that sparkling ran straight towards the fight.”

“Look, I get it. Predacons are no joke, but I’m all for whatever Optimus believes is the right thing to do. He’s never tried to steer us wrong, and I’ve always trusted him to keep our morals from straying.” Bulkhead crosses his massive arms over his broad chest plating.

Bumblebee conveys his agreement through a series of beeps and nods. He trusted Optimus implicitly, as he always had.

Silence falls over the medical bay as the gravity of the situation sinks in. Nobody wanted to step over Optimus’s leadership, but what else can be done when the first sparklings seen since the dormancy of the Well are involved?

[ninjasmudge]

Sun Wukong just quietly weeping in the corner cause he can't be Father or Grandpa Sun to the bots. They all call him kid including Bumblebee(who decides to be a little shit about it half the time). Actually, he can be Grandpa Sun to Predaking as the Predacon is a clone and probably isn't that old.

They'll have to wrestle first though considering the Decepticon issue. Only other way for the Monkey King to be older than a Cybertronian is if it's a Sparkling(baby bot). Everyday he's closer into searching for one just so he'll rightfully feel old.

Speaking of being called kid, Pigsy would instantly go silent as he can't really rebuttal about it due the massive age gap. At most he'll ask for them to not refer to him with that title. Sandy just blink but shrug it off. Although he is most likely to get offered water a lot since he's a river spirit in Nevada which either a desert or wasteland.

Nezha would be number 2 on the 'Don't Call Me Kid' list. It's embarrassing for mortals to refer to him like that as none of the factions are truly immortal. They just have insane life spans.

Macaque has a shit ton of blackmail if someone dares call him 'Kid'. He can hear into the past so finding something would be a cinch. Also Macaque definitely share some new swear words with Miko as further incentive to not call him 'Kid'.

DBK is number 1 on the 'Don't Call Me Kid' list. He's older than Nezha and Sun Wukong so being referred to like that would just anger him. Especially since DBK will only get involved in this alien robot insanity because of Red Son. Princess Iron Fan doesn't want to be called kid either but she likes hearing about the drama from this war. It's a free soap opera in her opinion.

Speaking of age, imagine the looks on Team Prime's faces learning their items that can grant immortality like peaches as there is the idea of magic they're still trying to figure out. Ratchet already had an aneurysm when MK cloned himself just to help with unpacking their latest supply haul. (Ratty doesn't like Porty MK at all.)

Optimus in the corner recording all of this as the archivist in him has become active. Tang and him would be talking for hours if they ever met.

all of this is very on point lmao FOR SOME REASON one of the things that got me here was how funny itd be for dbk to interact with basically any of the bots, his big intimidating talk means absolutely nothing here, he gets like, a polite clap from bee and smokescreen when hes done

... and if ratchet doesnt like porty mk, please take a moment to imagine how much ultra magnus hates him

ALSO I THINK RATCHET WOULD COMPLETELY REFUSE TO ACCEPT THE EXISTENCE OF MAGIC, NO MATTER HOW MUCH EVIDENCE HES PRESENTED WITH. HE WILL SIMPLY NOT LOOK. HE IS TURNING AWAY

[lets-try-some-writing]

since you're reacting to stuff, i hope you don't mind reacting to ocs!

here's fogwing, a very,very old lady from earth, one of the few predacons that survived earth from megatron's mission in that regard she absoulty desipes megatron for abandoning her, and very much veiws predaking as a brat.

she very hefty and bulky, so she circumstantiate that with a fog like substance that she produces from her body to confuse the enemy, but this fag uses energon to make and is tiering for her and has rotating chainsaw like teeth for extra damage. but she's slow and her eyesight isn't the best.

fogwing is grumpy at best and doesn't see the conflict as very important, and sees that optimus should just kill megatron and get on with it.

surprisingly, she has a soft spot for sparklings and organics, and funnily enough, is very protective of starscream against megatron's bullshit, but keeps his pride and ego at bay.

she has babies but i haven't drawn them yet lol

she's bigger than predaking, he has mixed opinions about her

This is supposed to be a writing blog, but whatever, here we go. Reaction time.

First off, as writer myself, I can say Fogwing's backstory fits well enough. I don't have a ton of deep context so I can't say much else besides the fact that I can see her story being possible in the Transformers universe without disrupting the plot too much.

You've done an excellent job creating abilities for her. Often times oc's can end up being too overpowered by accident or too needy. Fogwing seems to not fall into either of these categories thankfully based upon what information you have given me. Her skills are evened out by weaknesses, like her fog production using energon and her sight being poor despite her size. All very good weaknesses to even out her strengths.

Her personality doesn't have any notable issues at first glance (writing wise that is). I can see why her personality is the way it is and I like it. Her care for sparklings and organics is a nice touch and her somewhat random attention to Starscream is a fun addition to her personality. I quite like her views on Predaking, even if he is technically her ruler. Overall, a good personality for the character type you seem to have gone for.

Her character design is also fantastic. I love the art! Gorgeous really! At the moment I have no real criticism for this oc. She makes sense and I see nothing that could point towards her presence in TFP being detrimental to the plot overall.

Good work!

Hello

Megatron vs Predaking round 3. I guess this one will be the most evenly matched of all by papa Megs improved body. It will be interesting to see which one will emerge victorious this time, or maybe they will somehow get along. Hange would probably have a heart attack if she saw Predaking transforming into a dragon.

Previous Episode of the Deity Timeline

Sorry I didn't reply to this. I just had to really think about it.

Because Predaking just has all the smoke with Megatron, and rightfully so. Megatron orchestrated the death of his brethren, Predaking doesn't need to forgive that. But after losing twice to Megatron, well technically one Megatron and one Unicron, Predaking isn't really fighting for revenge at this moment in time. It's part of it, since if Predaking kills Megatron, he will be able to avenge his fallen.

He's actually fighting to protect. Because Predaking knows that Megatron hates humanity and wanted to destroy them in the past. Especially on Earth. Predaking doesn't care about the humans on this world as a whole. He has been educated on the history of this world and has even observed some of the battles the Warriors have partaken in. Predaking believes humanity is destructive and will destroy itself. But he's protecting Hizuru. Predaking, in the span of a few months, has managed to grow fonder of Hizuru, the locals, and even Kenshin. If Megatron is here, then Hizuru is in danger. So he reacts when Taisho tells him the name and hunts Megatron down before tackling him straight into the ground.

Predaking manages to get a few good hits in as they tumble, but Megatron manages to recover from his shock and attack Predaking to gain some distance. Great. Just great! This is exactly what Megatron needed! Primus sake! And Predaking doesn't really talk much during this fight. He's not going to dignify Megatron. Not now. And without his dark energon powers, it is a struggle for Megatron. But...Predaking notices something. Megatron's not attacking. He's only defending. And this is going on for a while, and it's frustrating the Predacon that it forces Predaking to just transform into bipedal mode and demand for Megatron to fight him. Like why are you even here?! What do you even what?! Is it to bring more suffering to those around you?! Is that it?! Just fight back already! And answer for the pain and suffering he caused!

Megatron grimaces and asks a simple question: Is your quarrel with me and only me? Predaking is actually stunned at the question, but...decides yes. Despite his hatred for the Autobots, they did show honor, and Predaking is aware of the sacrifice that Optimus made. His only issue was with Megatron. He was a coward. He fought with no honor, and he would only look out for himself. So Predaking says 'yes', and Predaking witnesses Megatron do something he never expected: he throws down his sword and shield.

"If your quarrel is with me, then let it end with me," Megatron declared, "If it is not, then I will continue to fight."

Megatron is completely aware of the target on his back and the people who want him dead. Being alive can put everyone in proximity to him in danger. Megatron is still remembering the time he spent in Hizuru with Mikasa, and the moments he had with Armin, and his emotions are just conflicting with him. He doesn't want them to get hurt. And Wheeljack and Arcee are on this world. They can provide the assistance the island needs. He has no reason why Predaking is here, but if it ends with him, it ends with him. If not, he did open the comm. link frequency to Optimus so the Prime is aware of what's happening so they can prepare.

Predaking is just conflicted and angry about this. This was wrong. This felt wrong and it made him sick. Predaking transformed back into his beast mode and slammed Megatron into the ground again and again, but...Predaking didn't have it in him to kill him. If Megatron was putting up a fight, he would, but he surrendered. Predaking just left Megatron unconscious and flew back to Hizuru, with Optimus on the other end concerned when Megatron's comm. link went dead.

Predaking returns to Hizuru and finds Taisho still there. The Emperor demanded to know where he went. Predaking confesses and Taisho reprimands him as to why go after a potential ally. That could put them in danger!

"Megatron is no ally! He killed my brethren!" Predaking shouted, and Taisho could hear the pain in Predaking's voice.

Taisho decides to calm down and ask for Predaking's story fully. He didn't want and angry and emotional deity on the loose, or to lose their ace in the hole. And Predaking explains his backstory. How he was created for war, how he was treated as a monster or a mindless beast, how he desired to know more about his ancestors, and his ability to transform, and how he trusted Megatron to create more like him. Only to create a plan to have the enemy kill them to redirect his anger. Megatron manipulated and lied to Predaking, and Predaking felt like such a fool for trusting him. Predaking warns Taisho that he is a bad omen and cannot be trusted at all.

Normally, Taisho would take this as a sign to cut all ties with Paradis completely. Because there was no way that they didn't know about Megatron's track record. But...Taisho brings up what happened when he was here with Mikasa Ackerman. And Predaking is confused. Kenshin brought up that person. What did she have to do with this? Taisho explains that he has seen Megatron's cold demeanor and behavior, but...he was kind to this one human.

And Predaking's in disbelief. Kind?! To a human?! That's absurd! Megatron wanted to destroy humanity! Why would he be kind to a single one?! And Taisho explains what happened during the floating lights and how Megatron comforted Mikasa when she grieved over her mother. And even told her about reincarnation. Megatron talked highly of Mikasa to Taisho.

Now Predaking is like WTF?! There was no way this was possible! Taisho offers Predaking talk to Kenshin because he has spent time with both of them and went out of his way to understand them both. Predaking is just tired at this point and decides to go back to his cave. Taisho does ask if this means that their alliance was over. And Predaking says no.

"May I ask why?" Taisho asked.

"...I have grown fond of this place," Predaking answered, "You humans are...odd, but intriguing. I do appreciate being treated other than a monster. And...you have told me the truth, instead of keeping it hidden from me like many others have. You have my trust, and my loyalty. But that can be easily broken."

Taisho is relieved that Predaking isn't leaving and is surprised that he gained the Predacon's trust. Meanwhile, Predaking is just trying to figure out what the hell is going on! What happened?! Why was Megatron acting so different?! Why was he aligned with the island?! And...who was this 'Mikasa Ackerman' and why did Megatron care about her?

Meanwhile, Wheeljack is laughing at Megatron's injured body as he and Optimus went to go get him. Megatron flips Wheeljack off in response.

(Predaking only cares about Hizuru. That's where his allegiance lies. It's gonna be a bit before Predaking even goes to Paradis and sees the Survey Corps.)

a moral quandary

weighing the options:

not lying to newsparks

VS

having Grimlock tell the bitlets that the rubber chickens are aliens and he needs to take them to space dock so they can go home when I ask him to handle these noise complaints

pros of lying: cooperation from bitlets, no more rubber chickens

cons of lying: when predaking figures out that we lied he will tell all the other bitties, bitties distrust us, disappointing our son

3:<

other options:

rubber chickens are allowed only in the rec centre, rubber chicken owners of all ages must keep them in their lockers (somehow Vortex and Wildrider each got one, but LB has already hidden Wildrider's and looking for it is +6 enrichment for Wildrider)

meeting in which we somehow explain to bitties why rubber chickens are funny occasionally but make other people miserable when used more often

station housing committee meets to discuss rubber chicken issue and come up with rules about rubber chickens

security officers abscond with unattended rubber chickens, which disappear until next halloween and Viridian, Silverwing and Remix are told that they (meaning the chickens) are not allowed to leave the rec centre next year

brainstorm suggested creating a rubber chicken disintegrating virus but I'm not confident that it would only destroy rubber chickens

Why do I imagine that the TFP!kids turned sparkling would wreak havoc on the nemesis if they found themselves on decepticons hands? I mean, yeah, they will learn what they can from them, cause the bots simply can't teach them about being a warframe, but that doesn't mean they will be docile and easy to manage, even more with them simply being other. Would they get attached to the cons? Would megs (and soundwave too, cause he has other vibes) realize the otherness cause of the dark energon?

Because you’re not wrong. But it's hard to say if the Decepticons ever figure out the kids' Other heritage without major clues and a 2x4 to their prejudice. If anything, they'll make a lot of assumptions that their quirkiness is due to them rising above their flesh or weirdness from the cyberization process.

Should the Decepticons manage to get their hands on the sparklings, the ship will be very lively and the crew will be on their toes wrangling those three.

Much to everyone’s surprise, it’s not the little Predacon or nearly feral War-Forged that causes the most trouble, it’s the polite one.

Miko may be a ferocious, bitey slip of Seeker sparkling (Many had their servos patched if they didn’t catch her fast enough.), but Jack is able to suppress his presence to nonexistence and he moves so lightly that he doesn’t register on sensors that detect motion and proximity. 

He also has a sweet smile. Jack can and will try to finagle his way out of things, especially since his curiosity is too powerful to suppress. (Ex: the base cougar, his constant sneaking away into vents, walls, ceilings, and so on. A locked door is not a deterrent, it’s a challenge.)

Starscream and Predaking had relentlessly worn down Megatron on claiming guardianship over Miko and Raf, respectively. They actually worked together to push their claim; after all, they’re the only adults of the sparklings’ specific frame-types. Plus, neither of them wants Shockwave to have them.

Neither of them has to worry about the sparklings getting curious about the scientist, Jack had a terribly negative reaction to his presence that he immediately fleed from the medbay with Miko and Raf.

Between Predaking’s refined tracking skills and Soundwave’s constant surveillance of everything, the trio is found holed up in the walls where raw Energon crystals are stored for the long term.

Both of them are vicious, little things. Jack isn’t a mild child. When provoked, he doesn’t have any issues sinking his claws or denta on the softer bits between plating. Unlike Miko’s wild lashing to draw blood, Jack purposely targets the seams that protect the nervecurcuits and ligaments.

Jack is very driven by his curiosity. He can be bird- and cat-like in his mannerisms. The Decepticons had learned the hard way to not only indulge some of the constant questions but make sure it’s truthful enough since the bitty seems to have a sixth sense in detecting lies.

While all the kids can be omens in their own ways, Jack is downright eerie at times. It’s the way he keeps to himself, how silently he moves. He’s downright difficult to teek, so more than once he had a few of the mechs raise their blasters to his direction, especially when they see those off-blue optics above them.

Jack is a little ghost. In more than one way.

Megatron would be focused on the kids, particularly on Jack, especially since dark sparkling reminds him a lot of Orion. The unstoppable quest to satisfy his questions, the willingness to subvert the establishment, that smile when around friends, and the strange sense of politeness to accept gifts even when confused or unsure about the goods. The warlord can’t help but to laugh when Jack bit into a Cybertronian-version of the Kinder Egg. Poor thing was so confused since he took a hearty bite out of the chocolate, plastic covering, and toy. It’s a “unique” taste, alright. 

Of course, Jack is his own person. And that person is a sparkling that can and will dabble into eating venom and poisons with little side effects.

He also has the worrisome habit of sneaking to the outer deck to sit at the bars to either way the sky or the scene down below.

With great reluctance and gritted denta, he had to give Jack over to Soundwave since Jack can and will sneak away from the warlord and everyone else if they take their optics off him.

Soundwave, as a spymaster and head of security, is constantly surveilling everyone and everything.

Miko is the loudest, angriest child. She squeaks and chirps up a storm. Climbing all over the place and isn’t afraid to jump and tumble down. Before mecha knew Starscream was coming based on the distinctive clip of his heels, now mecha know it’s Starscream based on the furious howling by Miko hanging by the scruff.

Much like the Autobots, she spends a lot of time in the medbay since she’s the only current War-Forged on Earth and she really does love jumping from ridiculously high places.

Death from above, the Vehicons tease with a sort of gallows humor, especially when one of them catches her from hitting the floor. If Miko ever survives to her adulthood, then she will really bring death to many mecha.

And if Miko is in the medbay, then Jack will suddenly appear in the vicinity. He pesters Knock Out and Breakdown with hows, whats, whens, whys as the medical berth keeps Miko dealing bolting away. Breakdown graciously allows the pink Seeker to chew on his armor as the medic sorts out the little damage and her systems.

Out of the three, it’s Raf that would get attached the most quickly. He’s very young in terms of development, he craves close emotional connection, so as far as he’s concerned, he has a caretaker that’s like him. 

Predaking is attentive to his needs and very patient. He spends more time in his alt-mode since Raf either doesn’t know how to transform or simply doesn’t like going to two-legs form.

He will carry Raf by the scruff like a mama cat with her kitten, or let the kid ride his back as they cross halls. Predaking doesn’t trust the other mecha onboard to try something. (They just want to pet the potato. Honest to Primus.)

Even with a superior sense of smell, he does keep very close to the chonky pup since Raf will explore his new surroundings and will attempt to shove new things into his mouth. No little pup, you can’t eat that. Even if it’s tasty. Plus, keep the baby dragon from overeating and away from the long-term storage space.

Of course, Predaking grumbles but doesn't push away Miko and Jack that find their way to Raf.

War Breakdown (loose)

& Zamu

by Hasbro

Breakdown was given to me by a friend of mine in Virginia because he had a duplicate set. The reason: he wanted two jet Vehicons, and the second Breakdown was just extra plastic. So he was gifted to me. My gain.

My normal modus operandi is that I post in the order that I bought or received the toy. In Breakdown’s case, I’ve delayed this so many time it’s now irrelevant. It’s not import in the grand scheme of things, I just wanted to go on record about it.

Before I could post this (which I’ve delayed several times already) I needed to apply all of Breakdown’s stickers first, and this is the part I hate. There’s a reason I haven’t opened my ‘Titans Return’ Trypticon, or ‘Power of the Primes’ Predaking yet BECAUSE of the stickers, which I’m not ready to deal with...Well, that and I don’t have a lot of room at the moment to even display them. 

Anyway, let’s get back to Breakdown.

This Breakdown figure was part of the original Transformers Prime toyline, however this toy never made it to the States because of some kind of safety reason, or something? So TFP Breakdown stayed in Japan. Well something’s changed because he and the Vehicon jet soldier made it in a two pack ten years later. So this is my first (likely only) TFP Breakdown.

Going back to the stickers for a just a moment. This was a bit of a pain to apply all of them, but I managed to do it, and I think they do compliment the toy, for the most part.

Vehicle Mode:

Vehicle mode is, what I believe, is an armored truck. It’s cast in mostly in blue plastic, it’s chunky, and it rolls.

The armored truck has got some nice, but simple detailing, and the stickers do help, I must begrudgingly admit.

The right, rear side panel just won’t close up for some reason. That’s a little annoying.

At the end of the day it rolls well, and aside from the disconnected panel the truck is ultimately a sold vehicle.

The vehicle has about 5 5mm ports for additional weapons and such.

Transformation:

Transformation really isn’t the difficult. My biggest issue is the right leg panel (which is the loose section in the vehicle mode) is just constantly popping off during transformation, and that’s a very annoying.

Robot Mode:

Breakdown just looks so cool! He’s broad-shouldered, gorilla-armed, tiny headed hellova bruiser-bot!

This toy really captured the TFP aesthetic.

Breakdown’s got some serious attitude going on here.

He poses well, and you can get him into some decent action poses, however he’s a bit weak at the knees which is problem because of he’s a little top heavy. He stands just fine.

The sticker on the rear bumper was the worst thing to apply.

Zamu:

Zamu is...his Arms Minicon partner, I think. Since this toy was released in japan back in 2012 it’s the same set which was packaged for the set.

Zamu had to be assembled like a model kit; it wasn’t too difficult, and once again the sticker application was probably the hardest part. Haha!

Zamu is a robotic rhinoceros. who transforms into either a gun or a hammer for Breakdown to wield.

Flip back the hand and you can place the hammer in the clear plastic piece (be mindful on the clear plastic)

Final Thoughts:

War Breakdown is a fun, but flawed toy. The armored truck mode has a panel which doesn’t peg in properly, the knees are a little weak, but the toy poses well, he looks fantastic, and was definitely a missing piece to me TFP collection.

Be ready because I am posting an entire run of Mercy soon on AO3!

It is called the “Space Adventure Storyline” which you can get to from the Heart, Neutral, and One Attacks Paths from Part 1. Predaking has chosen to be a calmer person, and to also work with the Autobots at the spaceport.

In this path, Predaking visits different planets on a mission to bring Cybertronians back to Cybertron. 

This story features the INVINCIBLE/INFINITE HEALTH boss: Overlord. When you reach his planet, the game turns into a survival and escape game. Not only do you as Predaking have to help get everyone off the planet, you have to defeat this boss before he departs to Cybertron and kills everyone.

This is the longest and most complicated story planned for Mercy. I am super excited to have nearly completed this story this summer (total: over 300 single spaced pages). 

This story features IDW and Victory characters. Notable ones include the Scavengers, Fortress Maximus, Star Saber, Deathsaurus, Esmeral, Sixshot, Black Shadow, Leozack, Lyzack, Chromedome, Rewind, Froid, Sunder, Trepan, and Overlord. From Aligned, we have Superion and the Dinobots dropping in to kick ass. From Beast Machines, we pulled in Obsidian and Strika to be awesome war generals.

This story also settles issues with RID 2015, and talks about the fate of the Ark and the Star Seekers.

But you will all want to be there for the unique villains. One small shady bastard at the side of a cold, invincible giant. A few more weeks! Are you ready to face Overlord?
