Overlord: If you ever feel stupid, weak or helpless, just remember that I... am not. And I am out there, very dangerous and looking for you. Good luck.

Hi there, besides Divot, does Drillburst ever have/raise any sparklings?

Technically no, BUT there is an AU @voiidfriend and I have where Drillburst does raise his oc Tandem! Who so happens to be Overlord's kid as well, but it's a whole thing he can get into ;)

I drew a thingie a while ago that was based off of it (I want to draw more down the line):

We'll probably write more about it later but the simplified version of it is that Overlord entrusts the current pit champion with babysitting his kid while he's out doing stuff. Said pit champion so happens to be Drillburst, who had just fought his eleventh opponent and officially has the most kills out of anyone in the prison. He's in a rough place, and now his warden is entrusting his kid to him? But it's not like he could say no, now can he? So he ends up taking care of Tandem while Overlord is out, prolonging his twelfth and final fight. He's wary of the sparkling at first, but their pure innocence unlike their father gradually makes him warm up to them.

When the time comes post fight 12 for OL to kick Drill's ass, the fight is exactly the same except for when Tandem runs in and clutches Drillburst, crying for their dad to stop hurting him - but it's right as Drillburst is about to explode. When he does explode, transforming and burrowing away, Tandem is caught up in his alt mode and is subsequently dragged along. They shut down alongside Drill, and are rescued with him by the Autobots after the prison is liberated. When Drill realizes he inadvertently stole Overlord's kid from him, he panics and considers leaving them out of fear that he might come back, but he ultimately decides to keep them as they weren't at fault, they're alone without anyone to look after them, and they like him as much as he likes them.

Cue Drillburst accidentally becoming Tandem's new father figure from then on out! He's first very wary for understandable reasons, but he ends up accepting and embracing his new role. Will he hand them back to overlord? hell no, he's made him mad enough already LOL

anyway, we have named the au Babysitter AU :D exhibit B of drill being a good dad even though he thinks he wouldnt handle kids well

got inspired to revisit my old concept of SG!Drillburst! rough backstory under cut

Shattered Glass Drillburst was a popular electro-funk artist by day and mercenary by night. While he was branded an Autobot and his music was admired by some of their most notorious, his sympathies lied with the Decepticons. He would eventually begin to make songs with secret messages within them for them to decode, full of Autobot secrets he learned in his mercenary business. Unfortunately, his cover would be blown when his incriminating messages were uncovered by the Autobot Blaster, and Drill was arrested and sent to Garrus 9 as a traitor. There he was subjected to brutal punishment by the sadistic warden, Fortress Maximus, who had been an avid fan of his music. Cruelly though, this admiration of Drillburst wouldn’t necessarily translate to leniency, but rather more attention on him. Drillburst would be freed when Garrus 9 was attacked in a liberation campaign by Skyquake, then Overlord in his place; and after months of brutal fighting that destroyed most of the prison, the massive Decepticon found him among the rubble and rescued him. Drillburst had been one of the only surviving prisoners in the attack.

Whatever Maximus put him through in Garrus 9 has deeply scarred Drillburst, but he's tried to move past it. While he continues to write and produce music, he has personally sold them himself as his record label had dropped him. He also keeps small for his own safety, in case the Autobots have put a bounty on his head. He lives aboard his own ship, traveling across Decepticon friendly zones on Cybertron and in the stars beyond, living a simple life in hopes that one day, his notoriety among the Autobots who once listened to his music will eventually be forgotten. He still continues his mercenary work on certain days, and performs for other Decepticons and neutrals during his travels. He hopes that someday he can return to the stardom he once had, beloved once again by both sides of the war--but how wishful are those thoughts?

TW: Loud! Ask and you shall receive! Overlord finally rates all your faves from IDW based on how much high grade he'd have to have, to hook up with them! 😳
