Ermmmmm.. could u please make a piece where Heatwave visits Hotshot and Quickshadow for the first time after they split up 🥺🥺🥺👉👈 I bet it’s emotional cuz they just couldn’t bear being apart

"...Okay, I think it should work now."

"It'd better, Blades. I'm tired of winding up where I'm not supposed to be. Let's be fortunate it's only been somewhere within our reality."

"Hey, we're the first people in the universe to try to make an untraceable spacebridge via inter-dimensional energy from a middle-world plane. Sue me if there's been some... Mishaps." The air mosaic sat on his knees as he overlooked the crescent-shaped machine in front of them, the center presently swirling with glittering stars and purple smoke trailing out onto the floor. "Give me a break."

Heatwave took a deep breath and then tried to relax his shoulders. "...You're right, I'm sorry... It's just-"

"Trust me, Heatwave... I know..." Blades' face fell from its own irritated expression, shifting to one of sympathy for his older brother. "...The last four months have been Hell for you."

They had been Hell. Letting his wife and child go- for their own safety- and being separated from them across dozens of galaxies had been the hardest thing he'd ever done in his life. He'd called them almost every day, and would have visited long before now, if not for what was going on back on Cybertron. The High Council had banned all spacebridge activity, monitoring whoever tried to step through without government clearance.

Heatwave had no such clearance- According to cybertronian files and records, he had died years ago, and there was no such thing as a 'resurrection certificate.' Not enough bots had managed that feat to warrant it.

If he showed up through one of the sanctioned spacebridges, security would be looking for his ID number and clearance card, and would assume he was some decepticon spy posing as a dead bot. So the only solution? They had to build their own, and they had to do it in a way that the frequency when active wouldn't be picked up on their sensors, which required a slight detour into The Mist realm to cloak its location and connection.

It had taken four months for Boulder and Blades to figure it out and build it- also talking to trustworthy bots on the other end to make their own connecting portal generator. It would only be linked between the two- at least, that had been the plan. This was the first time Blades was fully convinced it wouldn't sent Heatwave to Hong Kong- That was a long story to explain to some rice farmers!

"Okay, test it out. Go see your pretty femme on the other end." Blades announced as he stood up. "Happy trails!"

"Famous last words, Blades..." Heatwave looked back at the portal, and then sighed, taking a step, then another, then another. The mist swirled about his feet, smoke and glitter creeping through the nooks and crannies of his armor. It was only for a moment, but then it faded, and he looked around to find a matching crescent behind him as he stepped forward, and the odd but identifying smell of freshly-laid cybermetal. "Ha! Finally... Took those two long-"

"Heatwave...!"

"...Darling!"

"My strong, faithful fire engine...!"

"My exotic, incomparable paradise...!"

They held to each other for what seemed like forever, peppering each other with kisses and whispering sweet nothings into each other's audio receptors... Until their son began to fuss.

"Oh, of course, Hotshot. Yes. Let's go somewhere we can catch up proper..."

Intro thingy??

Hi, I go by Astro. I'm a fanfic writer over on AO3 and Wattpad. I purely write TFRB and RBA related stuff.

I was invited to join Tumblr by @cayennesugar! (Thank you!! I had no idea what I was missing out on)

She mentioned there were a few people on here who've read my books, ((If that's you, I know I neglected you for months- please forgive me)) so I thought I'd post these little sneak peaks of the next chapter of my book, Back To You. Enjoy!

“..sooo, what do you guys think?” Whirl’s voice pulled him out of his thoughts. Colorful paper scraps were displayed on her portion of the screen and made up a visual of the Rust Sea, with two silhouettes, presumably Whirl and her sire, walking servo in servo along the shore.

“That looks great, Whirl!” “Looks just like the real thing.” “Impressive!” the others praised.

“Nice wo-….I like the…..” Hotshot rambled on about the cool 3-D effect of the paper water but was quickly cut off.

“Uh, Hotshot, you’re breaking up.” He could just about make out Hoist’s voice through the radio static. “..h-old..on..” He angled his datapad up at the ceiling. “Ca..n you….hear m..now?” His camera cut off for a split second before returning with horrible graphic quality; his voice was barely audible over the static and sounded distorted.

“uhh..kinda?” Wedge shrugged. “Negative,” Medix shook his helm. Hotshot’s video feed started to laggily shake as he shook the device and gave it a few slaps. “..How about now?” he asked, static finally lifting.

“Yeah, that’s better.”

“Huh.. that’s never happened with the other one,” he muttered, giving the datapad a once-over before dismissing it as a one-time bug.

Unbeknownst to him, across the hall, his Carrier glared at a static screen, typing tirelessly to stabilize the newly forged connection as she waited for the Prime to answer. Seconds turned to minutes, and the buzzing didn’t let up. Growing anticipation fueled her anxiety. Why wasn’t it working—?

"Is something wrong with your dinner?"

Hotshot reeled back from his thoughts and realized he'd been staring at his plate all this time. "I guess I lost my appetite." he meekly shrugged.

"I thought you said you were hungry."

"O-oh, right. I..was?" he gulped, tugging on his helmet in embarrassment. "I..uh-"

"You know you can tell me anything, sweetspark." His breath hitched at the warmth of her servo on his.

"What's on your mind?"

He blinked at her, his big blue optics, wide with apprehension met with her usual calm blues that instantly soothed his nerves.

His dermas trembled, he couldn't hold it any longer. He needed to know. The burning question he'd been bottling up since he was seven finally slipped his glossa.

"Why don't you ever speak about my Sire!?" He winced at how harsh it came out.

Her soft gaze had flashed with utter shock, and Hotshot was quick to notice. The same hurt and lingering sentiments resided in them just like they had all those years ago and elicited a strong feeling of deja vu.

That same suffocating regret he felt when he was 6 flooded his entire being. What had he done?

It's almost done, currently undergoing some heavy editing. It's gonna be a pretty long chapter so brace yourselves. :)

Baby Quickshadow headcanons!!

Inspired by @cayennesugar 's Quickshadow baby art

She was a daddy's girl and she would do anything to be in her sire's servos,she loved her carrier too don't worry

She was a very lively and energetic baby even if now she's very serious and composed

She had a little bunny that was actually bigger than her and she would sleep with it,she still has it now,hidden in a drawyer or something

She wouldn't sleep without a pacifier and her plushie

She was born at 7 months because her carrier was close to lose her,almost a miscarriage do to stress.She was in the hospital for 2 months and the medics said that she won't survive,well she's here today!

She was a really small baby and that made her twice adorable like if her parents went to relatives or something,their optics would be only on Quickshadow

Her carrier took videos of her trying to walk while talking in baby language,it was cute.Heatwave couldn't really believe that this cute little baby is his badass girlfriend

The only ones that Quickshadow tolerates are Heatwave and Cody,if you hand her to Blurr or Blades she would start screaming

Blurr stole her plushie as a prank,it didn't end well.Quickshadow cried for 2 hours straight in Heatwave's servos till Blurr admited that he stole the plushie and gave it back to her.Heatwave gave him a punch after that-

Dani dressed her up and played with her since she was pretty small

The bots were really worried for her due to her height,then they discovered that she was born way earlier so they felt kinda sorry for her

And I suppose that's all!

Hightide o Quickshadow

hi

Hi

Quickshadow

Cool girl, great character

But I literally grew with the main team, I don't know how to make her part of it, I literally FORGET ABOUT HER ALL THE TIME, the only reason she still exist in my mind is because of cayennesugar and HeatShadow (ship I'm not even a fan of)

Hightide

Hightide is an old asshole but I just like to think he's an old grandpa and that's why he is like that

[rescuebabiesau]

Itty bitty req, could u doodle out what the beginning of Heatwave and Quickshadow’s relationship must’ve been like? Nothing too deep, I imagine that they were both on cloud 9 hehe

Also hi 🎀

Hello 'Sugar :)

Starting off proper, the two don't change their interactions too much, excluding little gestures to each other- like Heatwave leaving flowers on her porch and then hiding when she comes to collect them (despite both of them knowing full well who left them "There's a security camera on her front door, 'Wave!" "So?")

They spar more often because Quickshadow insists on helping Heatwave get back to full strength after his injury and corresponding coma (By no means do either of them let the other one win)

They still tease and mock each other, but it's now undertoned with a gentleness and affection that the others are just as likely to tease both of them about.

[faintv0x]

I like going through the heatshadow tag because it's always the same 40-80 people showering the posts with love and people like cayennesugar always rebloggimg we love you cayenne

@cayennesugar YOU GET MORE QUICKSHADOW DOODLES TODAY‼️‼️‼️

[mysticfoxdesigns]

It's my 20th birthday.

Making friends was never a strong suit of mine, as evident by the fact I did not have friends throughout elementary school. I was that weird kid that no one wanted to hang out with. It wasn't until middle school when I met the start of the Caseus group that I started making friends.

Hundreds of people in person and online have entered and left my life since then, with few remaining consistent. While I still deal with the side effects of those several years without friends, I wouldn't change it for the world, given who I have now in my life.

If I could go back and tell my younger self, that we did succeed, I would. She deserves that assurance that everything turned alright.

I couldn’t add everyone onto this piece, some people I didn’t even know if they had a persona. I put the people I know IRL towards the front, with (mostly Tumblr) mutuals towards the back. All y’all have impacted my life in ways I never expected, and I am grateful for the bonds I have forged with everyone.

A not so complete list of mutuals and friends I have made here on Tumblr
