#TyrantTwinsAU

Hey hey imagine. For my TyrantTwins AU. I added yet another secret child.

Hot Rod as Senator Shockwave and Orion Pax's secret kid? One that Shockwave never knew about. One that Orion feels almost ashamed to have had.

Orion never got to share the news before Shockwave got Shadowplayed and Empurata. And Orion couldn't be around Hot Rod- It wasn't the sparkling fault. But he couldn't raise a sparkling. So Orion gave him to a trusted old friend, Kup. And Kup raised Hot Rod. Keeping his true sire and carrier a secret, as Orion made him promise.

And now Optimus Prime, a mech who has stood in the front of worse mechs, dangerous mechs, vicious foes. Cannot stand next to the familiar young Autobot who has the same face as his past lover.

THANK YOU FOR EXPANDING ON SONS OF MEGATRON AU (I don't know if its got an actual name, but until it is I'm just gonna call it that if its okay) could I maybe ask how the lambros feel about being related to Megatron? especially Sunny since he's apparently the most like him. Like, since Sunstreaker doesn't exactly get along with every autobot, (assuming they don't know) do you think he gets worried that they would kick him out if they ever found out who his sire was? because he already "acts" like megatron, its "just a matter of time before he turns into him" or some other bs someone would think? (sorry if this doesn't make sense, I'm so tired rn)

Before the war, the twins actually felt really prideful about the fact that the Gladiator Megatronus was their sire. When the war really started to get going, alongside the twins being autobots, they no longer felt that pride. It wasn't shame, as they weren't close to Megatron anyway, but it was a sensitive topic.

In truth, they didn't mean for it be kept a secret for so long. If anyone had asked, they would've answered. But seeing as how long the war's been going on for, it feels awkward.

Sunstreaker doesn't feel worried about being kicked out. Sideswipe does though. Sideswipe cares a lot about their safety. Neither of them really know they're like Megatron. I think only a few bots would see the similarities, such as Optimus. But Optimus just chalks it up to the two being from the pits.

Like, it's known knowledge that the twins were raised by Breakdown and Knockout. But it isn't really something that affects them that often, more than Cliffjumper making fun of them for it. But when it's found out, via Jazz and First Aid, that they're actually Megatron's, it's gets very messy very quickly. The two basically are outcasted by a few of the autobots. More than they're used to.

Any moment of aggression from either of them, that's everyone is familiar with, gets parred up with 'they are megatron's so-' and it's really hurtful. They barely even knew the mech, even before he went crazy.
