If he is still an asshole, not particularly good at his job as mentor and given most don't like him I assume he is kindish unpleasant to be around- how come Zeta is fond of Sentinel? Is it BCS he puts on a facade for him? Or is there SMTH more?

Facade. When Sentinel was still Zeta's apprentice, he was perfect. He took care of Zeta's every whim and caring for him like nobody before, was almost like a maid or a lover to him if I really think about it.

That earned him a soft spot in Zeta's spark but throughout the whole thing, Sentinel hated it, hated Zeta

Hello! I love your AU so much, I have a question, do you plan to develop more couples in the future? Apart from Dpax and Megatronus/Prima, is there any other pairing? Maybe not develop it as such but it exists or is mentioned? I also wonder if Sentinel/Zeta fall into this couple category? Since it seems Zeta does have feelings for Sentinel but does Sentinel know it? or he just ignore it? Does he plan to take advantage of those feelings? Sentinel might think that having a Prime in love with him might be beneficial.

There will always be background couples, the number will increase the more I learn about TF ex: I didn’t even like ZetaSen when I made the AU. Right now you can expect: Wavewave, BDKO, SkyStar, ZetaSen, RodOp, and there are 3 more but that’s a bit spoilery for next comics <<< note some of them are background ships and might not be delved in

Sentinel is fully aware of Zeta’s affection for him, he takes advantage while hating it. To Sentinel, Zeta constantly reminds him (albeit without malice) of his time as a lowly student instead of a fellow Prime he worked his ass off to become. Instead of talking it out with Zeta, Sentinel continues to play as a perfectly happy and content companion while holding it in as a grudge toward him

Which aspect does Sentinel take care of?

I'm thinking either diplomacy/foreign policy (he was apprenticed under Zeta, plus the Quintesson thing) or something like sports and entertainment.

Public relation, so entertainment yes.

Not exactly the position he wants but it'll do. Since he doesn't like being surrounded by Primes who give him a major episode of inferiority complex, he surrounds himself with the public who blindly adores him and treats him like god
