Do you think Soundwave would be a good parent? Like- if a sparkling somehow or some reason grew attached to him, would he raise up to the task?

uhhhhhhhhhhhhh ok I gotta admit, I'm INCREDIBLY sparkling/child averse. It's not something I enjoy irl or in fiction. You won't see Soundwave being a parent in my fiction.

Do I think the SW I've written could be a good parent? I think he'd be very impatient with a child. I think he would logically understand that it couldn't do much for itself, but he wouldn't want to be burdened with its care. Maybe he would take care of it (ie make sure it didn't straight up die) for the absolute minimum amount of time he was required to, but he'd hand that sucker off so fast. He hungers for knowledge, not nurturing others with infinite patience xD

I think a sparkling would very much benefit from not having SW as a parent xD He still has so much he needs to work on for himself.

#ask #sparklings #do I think others on the LL could be good parents?#yeah sure #SW is a recovering genocidal fascist who was kinda brainwashed #who was forced to lose/destroy everything he cared about and worked hard for #then forgot he even had it in the first place #parents need to want kids to be good parents #imho SW doesn't want kids #also ALSO while we're here #and sort of on this note #Laserbeak is absolutely a drone xD #and non sentient #this seems to be the thing people have the hardest time believing when I tell them again and again in the text and outside AO3 #non-dad Soundwave is my favorite kind bahaha
