June is me. (I gave up on colouring the last two panels) (the chokehold this ship had on me when I was younger as well as June and Ratchet)

[lets-try-some-writing]

(For your Mr. Pax AU:)

Imagine the kids meeting Elita. It'd be so fragging wholesome XD

It'd more then likely be after the school day, too. Lmao.

It would and I have opted to answer the call for this ask.

━━━━━━ ⊙ ❖ ⊙ ━━━━━━━━━━━━

"So kids, how was school?" Elita grinned as the children settled on their platform, spreading out homework and other assignments for the cycle. She regarded their work with interest. It seemed simple enough in her optics, but then again, the human children were very small.

"Oh! You're Elita! Optimus's wife!" Miko shot up, a huge smile on her small squishy face. The urge to reach out and poke one of her cheeks was strong, but Elita refrained. It wouldn't do to go poking the children when it was far safer just to wait until later and do it in holoform.

"I'm his Conjunx, yes." Jack pointedly did not look in her direction. Elita could almost see the way his venting would have sputtered if he were Cybertronian. She may not have been well versed in all things human as of the present moment, but even she could see he looked a moment away from exploding.

"Woah, I didn't know Optimus was married." Rafael added his own commentary, closing his laptop to look up at Elita with wide eyes. She had to fight back an awed noise at how adorable he looked. He was tiny, his glasses only making him look more like a sparkling in her optics. She wanted to poke his cheeks as well, but that would have to wait.

"He's been my Conjunx for a very long time kiddo. Since before he became Prime in fact." Miko and Rafael made awed noises, and even Jack looked up at her in surprise, his embarrassment over the parent-teacher conference forgotten.

"Really? Optimus doesn't seem like the kind of guy to well... do that?" Jack was hesitant in his words, but Elita laughed in short order. She clutched her abdomen as she considered Jack's point of view, all but cackling. Her Conjunx could be quite stern when he wanted to be, especially when stressed. She'd already heard about how Optimus shut down any attempts at being introduced to humor. It was no surprise Jack was startled.

"He wasn't always such a stoic figure. Back when we were young, we got into all sorts of trouble." Resting a servo on her hip as he laughter died down, Elita watched as the children practically lit up at the reveal. Jack was quiet with his interest, but Rafael and Miko were not.

"Optimus in trouble? Oooh this is some blackmail material I need!" Miko did a little dance in place, the plushies on her belt shifting as she did an excited twirl. Elita again had to fight the urge to pick up and cuddle the squishy organic close. It probably wouldn't end well, but she hadn't been able to hold such a small creature since Bee was freshly forged.

"I don't think you can blackmail Prime with stuff that millions of years old." Jack, being so much like Optimus, tried to rain on everyone's parade with logic. Thankfully, his little black raincloud bounced right off Miko and Rafael who were still staring at Elita like she hung the moon.

"Married couples always have wild blackmail!" Miko flailed, throwing her arms up in the air as she grinned. Jack sighed and Rafael secretly adjusted his glasses to try and hide a smile. Elita could feel it right then and there as adoration settled in her spark.

Yes, she was keeping these squishies. She could convince Optimus later.

"I have quite a few stories for you. But only if you promise to not harass Optimus with them. He's got enough going on." Holding up a digit to her derma, Elita smiled as the children each agreed, some more enthusiastically than others.

"We won't bother him. Promise." Rafael's eyes only seemed to be made bigger by his glasses. Elita's spark leapt in its chamber, the cuteness of the scene overriding her usual serious attitude as mischievousness she had long left behind began to resurge.

"Settle down then children. Let me tell you all about Orion's first visit to the docks." Elita could see Optimus out of the corner of her optic looming in the nearby hall. He looked to be mostly uncaring as he waited there, listening in. But she could see the hint of a smile on his features. He wasn't opposed to her decision, giving her all the more reason to tell her tale.

It had been so very long since they'd had anyone who cared enough to hear their story.

Why I feel Jack Darby isn't like Orion Pax/Optimus Prime

This is probably not gonna do me any favors in the wider Transformers community, but that's fine; I don't want to be in the good graces of half those people. Besides, I've grown to really dislike Jack over the years, and now that there's a new TF film that actually shows us Optimus and Megatron's past that has everyone cheering, I can actually cite that film in my argument should I encounter any whiners.

Fair warning, this will not be in Jack's favor.

So, as we see of him in Transformers: Prime, Jack had a really poor life. His dad is missing for reasons unknown, his mother is working herself to the bone to keep the roof over their heads, and Jack himself is working a horrid job to try and lift some of the burden from her shoulders. A standard modern day life for teenage boys, right? Oh, and don't forget him going all gaga over prissy cheerleader Sierra; that's of course the icing on the cake of this cut and dry trope, because the loser boy has to have a thing for the social climber girl who he can't recognize as trouble.

However, when he crashes into the Autobot-Decepticon War, Jack is adamant against getting involved. He whines about his new lot in life, complains that he just wants "a normal life", and overall is ungrateful to the Autobots that saved his skin a short time ago. Yes, he pulled through in the five part premiere and did so at other points in the first and even second seasons - but those were all life or death situations.

Every other time, Jack caved to peer pressure and stayed inside the lines. He never stood up to the school bully, let himself get embarrassed by said bully in front of Sierra, and then broke his deal with Arcee by going to an underground race. Heck, if you ask me, the only reason he helped save the bully in that episode was because Jack didn't want to have a dead guy on his conscience. Sure he said "it's the right thing", but where was that nobility when you were ogling your crush throughout the episode, hm?

And to say that he's like Orion Pax after all of the above is an insult to Orion and Optimus' integrity. Can you truly see Optimus whining over his lot in life, being spiteful and rude to guys who were mean to him specifically and not his friends, or just losing brain cells when a pretty girl is involved and getting himself into trouble in a misguided attempt to impress her?

No.

Orion/Optimus would never do that. He'll take the hits to himself and make the best of it with a smile on his face, he'll fight for his friends rather than himself alone, and even if he's head over heels for Ariel/Elita One, he won't compromise himself or his morals just to impress her. Orion/Optimus is better than that, and would never stoop to such actions.

But you know who would do all of that?

This guy.

As TF One shows, Megatron in his youth was much like - gasp - Jack Darby. They both kept their heads low to avoid further ridicule and pain, they never wandered outside the lines for fear of the unknown/repercussions, and despite advocating for a change or better life, they didn't really lift a finger to do that. They both needed an outside force to push them onto a new path. And they both ended up having a low chance of heroism when there was pressure on them: Jack's was anytime Sierra or Vince the Bully was involved, and Megatron's was when the 'Bot responsible for ruining his life and all of Cybertron's population was at his mercy.

Speaking of, what are the odds Jack would have a similar reaction to meeting his father? Yeah sure, he spared Megatron in S1, but Megatron also taunted him by asking what Optimus' response would be if he killed him. Put Jack in a position where he gets to beat up his dad, and are we sure that Optimus would still have that sway over him?

Just ask Sentinel, he can tell you how well that turned out when Orion Pax tried talking down D-16 - oh wait, you can't, because D-16 killed him.

Honestly, there are far more similarities between Jack and Megatron than Jack and Optimus. I'm tired of Jack getting all the love and being heralded as Orion-like or Optimus-like when he never was. He's far closer to Megatron, and if I'm the only one who can see that, fine. I don't care.

These are my observations, my beliefs, and I'm sticking with them.

Now on the same token (but coming later), Smokescreen actually has more in common with Orion Pax/Optimus Prime, something the new TF flick has shown, even if I disapprove of a chunk of the writing and characterization in it. But, given I'm probably setting some people's hair on fire, I'll leave you alone for now to digest this post.

Good day, and remember:

"Autobots, transform and roll out!"

Papa Prime Headcanons 2

After a tough mission or when Bumblebee gets backlashes from particular disturbing events of the war, Optimus will tell him old stories. And he extend his ERM field to further comfort Bee and only leaves once Bee is in full power down. That is also one of the few moments that Optimus fully relaxes and let's his emotions out.

Whenever Arcee starts to pull back from everyone and her past regrets come back Optimus spaars with her or just silently drives next to her on patrol. He just let's her vent without giving advice if she doesn't ask for it.

After Smokescreens arrival he and Optimus had a long talk about Alpha Trion and Cybertron in its war days. At the end Smokescreen broke down and Optimus hugged him and wrapped him up in his ERM field until he calmed down again.

Knockout and Optimus once got trapped in a mine collaps due to stray blaster fire. Instead of facing of against each other, Optimus witnessed Knockout curled to a ball in a corner hyperventilating. He slowly got closer and gently extended his ERM field to calm Knockout down. He talked to him in hushed tones until they where freed. Knockout never forgot that day and after he joined the autobots he thanked Optimus, who just regarded him with the same gentle smile he held all those years ago on that same day.

Optimus has in his cabin a photo of the entire team that miko took, raf edited and jack printed out to robot size. It is his most treasured possession and his good luck charm. So whenever he feels unsure or doubt he touches his chassis to remind himself who he is fighting for. The team doesn't know that and think he touches his chassis because the matrix lies there.

June once witnessed Optimus reprimanding the children for putting themselves in danger yet again. As she leaned back she commented more to herself. "He is such a dad." To which Ratchet answered. "Oh you have no idea". The entire team except for the children and Optimus himself realized that, Optimus sees the children as his own sparklings. And noone is gonna mentioned it. Mostly because there is an ongoing betting pool for when Optimus is going to realize that his sire protocols are running.

~Hi apparently you all liked the first part I made of this so here is another one. Do let me know if you want more of this, Scenarios, Headcanons with the kids, the bots both just TFP or other contuienies.~

Day 5: Dancing/On the Couch/Sofa (Optimus Prime/June Darby)

That nurse wore heels as if that could reach him, get it girl.

[skelswritingcorner]

Explaining an Organic Phenomena (TFP fic)

I bring forth ANOTHER reader character/Buddy who has endometriosis! This is closer to my own experiences with my still undiagnosed condition, though. I use Buddy in this story, but that's because I still need to finalize this Buddy's name.

Word Count: 2.9K

Warnings: Mentioned self harm, mentions of hospital visits, menstrual pain

Story below the cut!

You didn’t expect to end up being involved with an alien’s war, let alone that three of your classmates already knew about them, but you got involved anyway. While you rarely interact with them, preferring to hole yourself up in a small corner to work on assignments, they often pull you into shenanigans anyway. Especially Miko.

The Autobots, as they call themselves, don’t know much about you other than what Jack told them. And he doesn’t know much about you. Most he knows is that at least once a month you end up leaving class early, because it’s the class you have with him that you usually end up leaving for the day, and for the following three days you’re miserable. Jack doesn’t know why either, and you plan on keeping it that way. The only people who get to know about your endometriosis are your family and your doctors.

Well, you at least try. You’ve known them for about two months now, none of them raised an eye at the once-a-monthly absence. Yet. It’s either going to be Ratchet, Optimus, or Smokescreen who will voice any concerns if this happens long enough. Smokescreen, as he’s your Autobot companion assigned to you by Optimus Prime, and Ratchet as he’s a medic.

This is the second period you’ve had since you unwillingly joined them (you blame Miko for this, but also Jack since he’s your neighbor). It was your usual routine during the first day of your period: try to ignore the pain long enough in school, eventually go to the nurse after the pain gets too much for you to focus, then end up being picked up by your mom and brought home.

It was in your class with Miko when you ended up being picked up by your mom. You wrote down something on an index card, giving it to her as you left. She knew what was going on, Miko was the only person outside your immediate family who knew about your condition from you. As you shuffled through to the main entrance, you did see Jack, but ignored him. He was turned away anyway, and you weren’t in the mood to get his attention.

“Where is Buddy? I thought she usually comes with all of you.” Optimus asked. Miko scratched the back of her head before grabbing an index card and showing it to him.

His optics scanned the writing, “I have to leave early, my cramps are getting too much. Tell everyone not to worry about me (especially Ratchet and Smokescreen), I should be there tomorrow.” he read out loud.

“Oh, on the contrary!” Ratchet rebutted, “This happened last month too! And Jack said this happens every single month! Clearly, something’s wrong if this has been happening for years.”

“Well, the only way to confirm if anything’s wrong is to visit her. None of us know where she lives, though.” Raf stated.

“Actually,” Jack countered, “Buddy’s house is right next to mine. Our moms know each other quite well. I don’t think she wants visitors, though. Last time I visited while she was experiencing this she threw something at me, and it hurt.”

Smokescreen entered the room, tilting his head at the lack of his human companion. “Where’s Buddy? I thought she was going to be here.”

“Not here right now,” Miko replied, “she left school early too, needed her mom to pick her up. Girl stuff. I don’t have permission to tell you.”

Smokescreen tilted his head, then turned to Arcee. “Do you know what Miko’s talking about?”

“No, I do not.”

“Then I’m going to find her.” Smokescreen started to walk away, but was stopped by Optimus.

“Smokescreen,” Optimus explained, “I know that you’re concerned for Buddy. However, as Jack is her neighbor, it would draw less suspicion from the Decepticons if he goes to visit her. Jack, do you have Buddy’s contact information?”

“Even better,” Jack pulled out his phone, “I have her mom’s number. Well, I do have Buddy’s number too, but I don’t think she’s going to answer.”

“Excellent. Arcee, go with Jack. Smokescreen, please remain on base, but maintain communications with Arcee.” Optimus ordered. Arcee nodded, and Jack went to grab some of his things before leaving with Arcee.

“Actually, Jackie made a mass displacement machine in case we need to go somewhere that requires someone small.” Bulkhead said, “Arcee might be our smallest member aside from the humans, but I don’t think she can fit through the door of the garage.”

“Absolutely NOT! I believe that would be dangerous. Has Wheeljack even tested it?!” Ratchet turned to Bulkhead, gritting his teeth.

“I’m down to testing it.” Arcee walked to Bulkhead, “Do you know how to operate it?”

“Arcee!” Ratchet exclaimed, “If you really want to do this, I’m going to supervise this.”

♢♢♢

This was not a good day. The cramps were especially bad, so all you could do was writhe in pain on your bed, unable to get anything of substance done. Are the Autobots getting suspicious of this now? The Decepticons? Honestly, the thought of Knockout finding you in this state, hell, even Megatron, made shivers go down your spine. It’s a shame too, you wanted to work on that dress for your project. The one that transforms from a vague black silhouette to a bleeding crimson. Too bad that you’re in pain. Mom went out to do some errands, so she won’t be home for a while. And dad? He doesn’t tell you anything about his work, but you know that it has something to do with the alien robots. Why else would the Decepticons kidnap you the day you were released from the psych ward, before you could even cut off the hospital bracelet? Interrogating you about things you don’t know about?

Who’s texting you right now? Grabbing your phone, you checked to see who messaged you. It was Jack. Of course it would be him, he’s your neighbor! The message said something you wished you didn’t read: ‘Everyone’s worried about you, Arcee and I are coming to your house. Ratchet’s worried too. Don’t throw a textbook at me like last time.’

You wanted to punch Jack so hard right now. Also, it was not a textbook you threw, it was a book about the history of fashion. Get it right, Darby. Angrily typing on your phone, you sent out a message: ‘I’M FINE.’ You then put your phone on the nightstand, curling into the comfort of your blankets.

It should take Jack and Arcee half an hour to get to your house, if they’re coming from the Autobot base. Hopefully, you can just tell them not to worry and leave quickly. They shouldn’t worry about you. Well, June did warn them about your mental health not being the best given what happened over the summer, but the point stands. As long as you’re not alone with your thoughts for too long, you’ll be alright.

There’s a sound that you now know is the ground bridge, and another notification sounded on your phone. So they went the easy route. You grabbed your phone, seeing two dreaded words, ‘We’re here’. God dammit. A door opened, most likely the garage door.

It’s Jack’s voice that you first heard, “Buddy, where are you? Who am I kidding, you’re going to be in your room.” as he spoke, his voice got closer. “Coming in!” and he opened the door. Whoop-de-doo.

“Are you in there?” he asked. You popped your head out of your blanket pile, preparing a plushie to throw at him if he says anything stupid.

“Your room has a lot of… black.” Arcee said, peeking from the hallway. Honestly? She’s right. Nearly everything in your room is black and pastel purple.

Wait. How is she in your house? She’s three times Jack’s size, how did she get in through the door? Wait, she looks smaller than usual…

“Why is Arcee in here?” you asked, biting back a whimper.

“Oh. Wheeljack made some kind of mass displacement machine and needed someone to test it. Smokescreen tried to have himself test it to see you, but Optimus has him on base for now.”

Right. That totally makes sense. Not weird at all.

“He’s worried about you, you know? If it weren’t for Optimus telling him he couldn’t, Smokescreen would be speeding to get to you.”

That’s weird. You thought he hated you. Smokescreen was always belligerent and grumpy when with you, mostly because you insisted on being in control so he wouldn’t break the speed limit and possibly commit involuntary manslaughter. He despised your personality.

“I think he only does that because I was assigned his human partner. I doubt that he’s actually worried for me.” you grumbled, returning to your blanket burrito with the plushie ready to throw.

“Ratchet is also worried, you know? He is a doctor and a-”

You threw the plushie at Jack, full force. Arcee didn’t even try to catch it, leaning against the doorframe nonchalantly. Even when mass displaced, she’d have to crouch to get in.

“Hey! What was that for?” Jack caught the plushie in his hands.

“Well,” Arcee laughed, “Buddy’s up now.”

She’s being sarcastic. You’re still laying on your side, dammit!

Arcee walked into the room, speaking after she knelt in front of you, “Anyway, are you alright? I’m pretty sure Ratchet wants an explanation as to what’s going on, since this is the second time since you’ve joined us that this happened.”

Ough. Eugh. This is going to be difficult. How do you explain menstruation to a robot? They don’t have those parts, at least you think. “Uh,” you winced, not out of pain but out of awkwardness, “It’s very complicated and requires a lesson in human anatomy. June would probably explain it better than I can right now.”

“She’s at work right now, though.” Jack countered. Oh. Right. Hospital stuff.

“...I’ll grab my drawing pad. Just give me a moment to draw some stuff to help explain it.” you got out of your very comfortable blankets, going to your desk to grab your drawing pad, a pen, and a few markers. After finding a blank page, you got to work drawing a basic diagram.

Once you finished drawing, you turned the drawing pad to the two visitors. You pointed the pen to the first drawing; a very badly drawn uterus with a face, “This,” you tapped the drawing, “is the uterus. To the sides are the ovaries, which is where microscopic eggs are held. Every month, usually one egg is released. Before this, a lining grows inside the uterus to prepare for a human baby.”

“An… egg?” Arcee tilted her head.

“Not like the ones you see at the store, those are specifically evolved to grow a baby outside of the mother. These have no shell.”

You shifted your impromptu pointer. If you had your finger ring on, you would be using that to point, “The egg, however, needs to be fertilized in order for a baby to form. This is usually done through… certain acts of pleasure. However, there are treatments in case you can’t get pregnant that way.”

Jack nodded, nonverbally imploring you to continue.

“But this isn’t about how babies are made or grown, this is specifically about what happens when you don’t get pregnant.” You moved the pen to point to another crudely drawn uterus, now with an angry expression and blood coming out from the bottom. “When you don’t get pregnant, then the lining sheds, basically it’s like bleeding. You can’t hold it in, it’s gonna flow whether you want it to or not. This takes several days, and usually causes mild discomfort. This usually starts when reaching teenage years, but I was eleven years old when I first got mine.”

“Wait, you were eleven when that happened?!” Jack’s eyes widened. You just rolled your eyes to continue.

“Sometimes, though, the lining can grow on the outside of the uterus, and end up on other parts of the body,” you tapped the pen on another sketch, with a mess of lines representing the intestines with blobs of red on them, “most often the highest it goes is the intestines, but it can go all the way to the brain. This is called endometriosis, and it causes incredibly painful cramps. I had this confirmed over the summer, after that incident.” you chuckled, “Didn’t even have the chance to get lunch after being discharged before the Decepticons took me.”

“I’m… sorry.” Arcee frowned.

“There’s nothing to apologize for.” you replied.

“It’s not an apology, Buddy, it’s a show of sympathy. I can’t imagine how that feels.” Right. People say sorry sometimes to show sympathy. Something you never got the grasp of. Saying sorry is meant for apologies, is it not?

“Well, I did stab myself to distract from the pain my cramps caused.” you laughed.

Why are Jack and Arcee staring at you like that? They look like they saw a flayed corpse.

Oh. Right. They weren’t told why you were in the hospital. At least June is complying with HIPAA.

“That’s why you were in the hospital?! You stabbed yourself?!” Jack went closer to you, still shocked.

“In two places. And no, I’m not showing the scars. They still look nasty.” It is true though, the stitches might be gone but the scars are still healing. Besides, one of those scars is on your stomach. You’re not showing that to anyone except for medical professionals, or someone you trust enough. The only person that applies is mom.

“Well, at least we now know what’s going on. Is it alright if we tell the others?” Arcee asked.

“Go ahead. Miko already knows, by the way. She even taught me how to pronounce it in Japanese. While there is an actual Japanese word, they just use the loan word.” you answered, “Also, be careful when telling Raf. He’s the youngest of us, I’m sure he’ll be full of questions. I… don’t want him trying to learn more than he should at his age.”

You’ve always felt protective of Rafael. Maybe it’s because deep down you always wanted to feel like a big sister to someone. Another part of you thinks you’re trying to subconsciously manipulate him into your father’s cause. Regardless of why that is, the moment you ended up in cahoots with the Autobots you’ve taken up the role of an older sibling to him. You did your best to not be overbearing or authoritarian, but you tried to help explain certain things to him. He might be a genius, but he’s still the age of a middle schooler. As long as he doesn’t end up behaving like Jack or Miko, he should be okay.

“I assume that you want to stay here, and not go to base.” Jack scratched the back of his head.

You nodded, “I’ll see if I can go tomorrow, depending on how I feel. See y’all tomorrow. Also, don’t tell anyone else the fact that I stabbed myself being why I was in the hospital.”

“I promise. See you tomorrow, Buddy.” Arcee waved, and the both of them left.

After the ground bridge noise was made, you put the drawing stuff away and returned to your blanket burrito after taking some painkillers. Talking with both of them distracted you from the cramps for a good while, surprisingly enough. That’s an achievement.

♢♢♢

“Are you saying that this is caused by a regular human bodily function going wrong?!” Ratchet clenched his hands, eyes wide and jaw slack.

“As far as Buddy said, yes.” Arcee confirmed.

“Yikes,” Miko winced, “I thought my cramps were annoying at best. I can’t imagine what level of cramps she experiences every month.”

“That’s why Buddy’s not here right now?” Smokescreen asked Arcee, who nodded.

Smokescreen sulked in a corner, “Why didn’t she tell me? I’m her partner! And she never said anything about this to me!”

“Buddy might have decided not to tell you since it might make you worry. That, and it’s hard to find a comparison for a Cybertronian lifeform for what she experiences. Even I struggle to wrap my head around it.” Optimus said.

“This could be disastrous.” Arcee replied, “Combined with who her father likely is, we might need to keep a close eye on Buddy. Even more than before. Ratchet, have you ever scanned her?”

Ratchet nodded, “Back when we first found her, yes. Is there something you want me to check?”

Jack piped up, “She said she has two scars, they’re very recent. Did those come up on your scans?”

After some typing, a figure that looked like Buddy showed up on the screen. Two points of trauma, one on her right lower arm’s interior, and one on her midsection. Ratchet nodded, “I was wondering what those were. How did that happen?”

“Not allowed to tell you,” Jack said, “it’s a bit… personal to her. It’s probably best if she tells you herself. I’m not breaking her trust.”

“It’s that bad, huh?” Ratchet sighed, “Very well. I’ll ask Buddy when she’s no longer in pain.”

“Hopefully she’ll be okay tomorrow. She might not feel comfortable coming to base tomorrow. Besides,” Miko cradled her cheeks in her fists while leaning against the railing, “she told me that she’s working on that dress! You know, the one she’s making that has a lot of red… for her sewing class?” The looks of confusion from the others proved that they had no idea what Miko was talking about.

“Nevermind.” Miko grumbled, walking to the couch and sitting next to Rafael. Next time Buddy goes on base, she’s gonna have so much to explain.

Tfp Bumblebee x (depressed?)reader!

Anger, sadness, and disappointment. These are the words that described your situation right now.

Anger came because you mad at yourself because you can't do easy things right. Always getting judged by others.

Sadness came because you feel so pity to yourself. Even on a small mistake, your family hates you immediately.

Disappointment came because you feel very upset. Why a human such like you even live anyway?

You know that you're in a depression stage. But you still wanted to live, unlike other depression people who wants to commit suicide immediately.

You refused to leave the base and ask Optimus if he can let you stay for a couple of days in the base, because you need sometimes away from your family and interaction with people.

At first Optimus reject your request, but after he thinks again, he allows it because it is for your own good.

You always lost on your own thought, you barely even show emotion even when Miko tells you a joke you didn't give her any response. Instead, the other kids were dying behind her as they cannot help laughing.

Bumblebee knew something is wrong with you.. no.. everyone knew something is wrong with you, but most of them thinks that you will be normal after some days.

Bumblebee saw you out on the rooftop. You are sitting on the edge of the roof, swing your legs and lost on your own thought again. You didn't even feel your surroundings and got scared at Bumblebee who sit next to you.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to scare you." Bumblebee chirps, but somehow you manage to understand what he says like Raf did.

"If there is something disrupt your mind, I'm here for you."

Something inside you is telling to put all your thoughts out, and you did. You tell everything that have been going on from the bottom to the top.

Small tear coming out from your eyes as Bee tries to wipe it out for you, after that he pulls you into a hug. The longest hug you ever had in your life.

from that day, you become very close with Bumblebee. He always checks up on you, just to make sure you've been feeling alright.

When it's his turn to patrol, he asks you if you want to come with him. Whether it's a yes or no from you, he will force you to come with him anyway.

Bumblebee often ask you to cuddle with him in his berth, even if he won't ask you, you exactly know what he was asking for. You never say no if it comes from him.

Everyone starts to notice about your behavior change, and also your connection with Bumblebee become closer.

Sometimes, Raf would saw you and Bumblebee flirting to each other and he will back off from you two to hang out with Bulkhead and Miko instead.

More on Cyber June and kids being war trophies / fae captives by Smokey and "Orion" ? 🙏

(So much misunderstandings, culture clashes, and weirdness from Other!heritage.)

It’s found out that June and none of the children have T-cogs after a medic at the trading outpost examined them, which explains why June wasn’t able to transform into a default alt-mode, couldn’t scan for a mode, and the lack of vehicular traits and kibble on her new frame.  

She can’t hide the sudden panic when the medic simply opens up her abdominal cavity and just sticks her hands inside. The only reason why she hasn’t bolted away is the fact that the med-berth immediately connects into a mecha’s systems and keeps them still.

Of course, the kids feel it and immediately start panicking as well. 

This is the start of the pretend relationship between Optimus and June since he’s trying to wrangle three terrified sparklings, be a translator between June and the medic, and attempt to add more context for June on actions that should be innate to a Cybertronian while playing as the supportive Conjunx on his spouse’s check-up because only family is allowed in private spaces.

Some of the local sparklings get very interested in the newest additions to the community really fast. They had never seen someone like June’s armor: robe-like and how it moves like cloth rather than solid armature. Plus, they’re quite enamored by how predatory species seem fond of Jack, Miko’s agility in the ponds and rivers, and Raf’s rock-eating habits. As well as Smokescreen’s shadow puppets.

The phrases: Got’chu! and Can we keep this? fills the adults with apprehension (Optimus), excitement (Smokescreen), and fondness (June).

Optimus is wary of the wildlife as warned by their host. Plus, he has very vague impressions of danger that not even the Matrix could suppress from Orion Pax's sparkling days.

Smokescreen thinks it's an absolute hoot that Responsible Jack is the one to venture away and drag back his loot, especially things he hadn't seen or even heard of. He thinks Jack looks like a proud photovoltaikitten or a fledgling cyberowl showing off to his carrier his hunting efforts.

This doesn’t even phase June. This was Jack’s early childhood, chasing after critters and hauling back wild animals to her lap: owls, crows, lizards, cats, dogs, snakes, and tarantulas to name a few…

Of course, Jack and Miko tried to hide a wild Timbre wolf puppy in the barn.

It’s fascinating to see a toddler gnaw and chomp on materials that either need specific equipment to harvest or would make a medical visit necessary. Not with Raf, though. It’s a dietary supplement.

So many mecha are side-eyeing the rag-tag group. It seems completely far-fetched that the two mechs kitted to Pits and back are willing to leave the third adult in such a… vulnerable state, especially with three little ones running around them. Crosscut, the pathfinder that brought them to such a distant planet, was nipping the more unsavory rumors in the bud. 

“Orion” had built them a cover based on certain truths. Yes, Earth is a planet that’s very far away and has societal structures and cultural practices that are very strange. Hence, why June's weapon systems are inactive/dormant, and why she has no combat training. It’s very unfortunate they had separated from their cohort. A traveling malfunction. Oh, they met by random chance, a hostage situation from terrorists that the 'bots stepped in.

And straight-up lies. Yes, there was a spark at first sight and it grew from there. They're pledged, but not full Conjunx out of pragmatism. The sparklings are very young, in case something happens...

While there are skeptics, most vaguely believe that they’re together since June’s frame accents match the same blue on Optimus’ armor.

There are bets on whether or not the mechs sired those bitties. Mainly Orion with Jack for their similar features and facial expressions. There's some debate if Smokescreen is Miko's parent or her sibling. Seekerkin tend to stick close to one another. Everyone is stumped over Raf…

It still doesn’t stop people from questioning things since June’s armor has connotations, while the overlapping platelets are extremely durable and very flexible, it still gives off a really vulnerable appearance. Something out of a high-class bordello with its cut and style...

Cue Smokescreen balking and Optimus trying to block anyone’s view whenever June takes off the armor of her hands and forearms to feel something properly.

“You’re able to manipulate the connection-link between your protoform and armor, it connects nervecircuits, pressure sites, and sensory-relays as close as possible to actual physical touch.” “I can what now!?”

There's something going on with the newest additions. Some things aren't adding up...

June and the sparklings drop into deep recharge in consistent intervals. It's as if they're operating on a different rhythm compared to everyone else.

It's odd that June is familiar with or has a frame of reference when it comes to cooking, mechanicrops, and domestic mechanimals, while the mechs are either stumped or confused by it.

June struggles with containing her EM field. It's heavy and dense and wants to sprawl everywhere, particularly around the children. She doesn't realize that it can overpower others very easily, especially when very few can match its density. In public, Optimus is the one that has to guide and contain it.

While there are many warnings about venturing into the forests and stepping away from the marked roads and well-treaded pathways, June has little issue with navigating through the tricky and treacherous terrain and seems to always find her way back, no matter the confusion.

Jack has a habit of leaving trinkets at the strangest of places and saying cryptid and/or off-putting things. "The birds told me..."

Miko, tiny she may be as a sparkling, is very much War-Forged and a daughter of the sea: she has a sixth sense for danger and predatory intentions.

There was an incident where the local medic had to administer emergency services for the poison some of the sparklings had eaten. One of them had mistaken the deadly and dark chromium cap for its edible, paler counterpart and mixed it into the group's snacking bag. While Jack received treatment and was watched like a hawk by the adults, he never suffered any negative side effects. Unlike the others, who were vomiting, sweating, and had abdominal pain, Jack was his usual self and he ate the majority of the dark, dusty cap; he misses the rich flavor and hopes he can find more in the forest where Mistrunner got it.

'ello, all! New chapter is out! :) It's been tiny bit long, but I have been cooking this since June, as it was meant to be published in June! I have been thinking to fizz it up a bit with Earthspark, but that's still down the line. Until then, I hope you all enjoy the misadventures of our lil group! :D

Eva just wanted to escape Jasper after she graduated high school, but recent circumstances have made it seem like an impossible endeavor. She's seen things she shouldn't have, heard things that should never be said, and felt things she should never feel. Maybe she'll make it out on top, or drown from the hauntings of her past. or An inside look into every character of TFP, their grief, struggle, past and present, through the eyes of my OC (with a little romance). *TW for abuse, phycological and physical trauma, kidnapping & death*

●・○・●・○・●

The elevator doors had parted revealing the most beautiful night sky that Eva had ever witnessed. The Moon, though bigger and brighter than usual, paled in comparison to its neighbors. The sky seemed almost white with the abundance of stars and galaxies that covered the void of space. Crickets chirped, tumbleweeds rustled, and the wind whistled. She was engulfed in a soft melody, feeling as though she were in a painting. This was the peace after the storm.

She moved to sit at the edge of the faux mesa as Optimus eased to sit beside her. He offered her a place in his hand to which she obliged by climbing on. In the softly illuminated area, Eva could barely make out his face, yet the many scratches and indents that adorned it remained quite noticeable.

As Optimus moved her closer to his face, he began, “Are you certain that you are alright?”

“I am.”

“Well then, let us begin with how you came to be there.”

“One of his soldiers, or Decepticons, kidnapped me a few days ago. I’m not sure what his intentions were.”

“The day you met Arcee was the day that the Decepticons had labeled you a target by association. It was an inexcusable foresight on my part to not have ensured your safety as I had done with our other human companions…If I may, what transpired during your predicament?”

To tell or not to tell, that was the question. Eva hesitated, preparing her response to be vague but not so much so as to raise suspicion, though, his delicacy regarding the matter did appeal to her. “I remained in their medical unit the entire time, in the company of Megatron. I rationed what little food and water I had, and I slept most days to conserve my energy. It was not eventful, just silent.”

“I am glad that you did not have to endure any more than this. You must have observed Megatron frequently. How was he?” His tone seemed longing, for his voice softened as he asked his question.

“Barely alive, but alive nonetheless. He had a gaping hole in the center of his chest, but I believe that Knockout, I think, repaired him.” His face was no longer knit in worry but rather eased into relief. It was clear to Eva that Optimus was true to his tale and that he still held affection for his former ‘brother’.

The two sat perched on the ledge until Eva had fallen asleep in his palm. Then, he opted to drive her home himself, no groundbridges necessary. While he was parked outside her house, he let her sleep in his backseat the entire night, for he was too concerned for her diminished health.

●・○・●・○・●

“Raf, what happened?”

Eva was met with Raf’s worried voice on the other end of the phone as he explained, “Bumblebee never picked me up for school and his comm link is off again. Any idea where he is?”

“Hmm, why not ask Ratchet for a ground bridge?” As soon as the words left her mouth, Eva panicked. She hadn’t been introduced to the bot, only knowing as much as the stories of the Covenant had led her to believe.

“I’m sorry, could you repeat that? I couldn’t hear you.” Thank god.

“I’ll come and pick you up since Optimus and I are still on the way.”

“Great!” With that, the call ended, but Eva’s fears still remained prevalent for Optimus had still heard her.

Thus, he began to question, “Have you acquainted with Ratchet already.” There was a hint of disappointment in his voice but Eva’s paranoia had prevented her from noticing it.

After a moment of silence, she began, “I heard his name and saw him in passing, so I just assumed…”

“Ah…That reminds me, you must stay at the base after your school day has finished as you are safest in our care.”

Eva pondered on the statement, considering whether she would have to invent some lie to inform Silas about her new situation. Then the memory of her in the canal and on the Nemesis led her to decide that Optimus was in fact right. After this contemplation, she nodded her head and looked out the passenger window at the rows of houses beside.

She went about her day as she had normally: she met her friends before class, ate lunch with Jack, and proceeded to do her homework on the bleachers during her free period as she watched the football players practice. The only exception was that at the start of every class, she had to provide a reason for her absence. She concocted a story that some relative of hers had died abruptly and stuck with it for the duration of the day. After the final bell rang, Eva met with Raf and Optimus to head back to base and investigate Bumblebee’s worrying state.

●・○・●・○・●

“Bumblebee is complaining of intermittent visions. Waking nightmares if you will. The experience he endured seems to be having a temporary effect on his psyche. This induced power down should force Bumblebee’s mind to rest and recover,” Ratchet diagnosed.

As Ratchet finished, the monitor at the center of the room displayed a live feed of Agent Fowler, whom Raf had told her to be the liaison of the Autobots. The bots headed towards the screen, as Eva trailed behind Optimus’ foot, curious and cautious of this new person. He informed them about a Decepticon mining operation taking place in the Arctic among other things. When the call ended, Optimus announced that the team would be heading out after he did his routine patrol around the base.

Afterward, Eva roamed the base for the umpteenth time, trying to familiarize herself with the place, she found Arcee standing in the middle of the hall. Her head was tilted and her metal eyebrows furrowed as she stared at a broken steel horn in her palm.

“Hey, you ok?” Eva began, trying to ignite a conversation.

“That obvious?” Arcee replied with a faint chuckle.

“What’s in your hand?”

“A piece of…my past.” Arcee turned her gaze toward Eva. Her head hung low and she seemed tired.

There was no need for her to press on something that seemed to be hurting Arcee, but Eva still had questions that needed answering. “About that evening, when the cons jumped me and Jack. Why didn’t you come back?”

“I came to this planet with a partner.” Arcee paused for a moment, choosing her words carefully. She kneeled down and stretched her palm to give the piece of the horn to Eva before continuing. “And now, I’ll leave this planet without him. I still can’t wrap my head around that idea. When I met you and Jack, I was grieving. I guess the only way I was able to hold myself together was by having tunnel vision. Solving the problems in front of me and forgetting about the rest.”

Eva moved her hands to hold onto Arcee’s fingers, leaving the horn to rest on her palm as she reassured, “I know how you feel. That feeling of when everything doesn’t seem to matter anymore. What does matter though, is you did what you could, right?”

Arcee smiled as she answered, “You’re pretty strong for a human. Smart too.”

With a chuckle, Eva let go of Arcee’s finger. Together they headed down the hall to the ground bridge. After seeing the remaining bots off as they headed to the Arctic, Eva turned her attention towards Raf.

He seemed to be grieving as well. Not for the death of a sentient life, but rather the death of a soul. There was so much uncertainty with Bee’s condition. No one knew if we would ever get him back. The cortical psychic patch was a notably notorious device, but due to it being a relatively new technology, there was very little information noted about it in the Covenant.

Unlike Arcee, Raf seemed to remain optimistic, speaking his head off to the powered-down bot. Eva sat down beside the boy, listening to him ramble on about his newest project for the Memorial High Science Fair.

After a while, Ratchet made his way over to the two humans and informed, “Rafael, I’m afraid Bumblebee can’t hear you in power-down mode. It’s getting late, why don’t I bridge you and Eva home to your families?”

Rafael responded, “Because I told Bee I’d stay. He’s family too.”

“Don’t be ridiculous. You’re not even the same species.”

“That’s being related. It’s not the same thing. I’ll show you.” Raf pulled out his blue flip phone and displayed an image of his parents and siblings posing for a Christmas photo shoot. “This is my family.”

“Hmm, yes very nice,” Ratchet mumbled.

Raf corrected, “Very large. Sometimes I can shout and no one hears me. But Bumblebee always listens and I can understand him. I’m not sure why, but I do.”

A smile spread across Ratchet’s normally stoic face. He, along with Raf, then turned their heads towards me.

Ratchet questioned, “And why do you want to stay?”

Eva thought for a moment before answering, “You all saved me. That makes you the only family I’ve got left.”

●・○・●・○・●

Ratchet left to repair one of his instruments leaving Eva and Raf to play a racing game on his computer. Just as Raf was about to beat her, Bee powered back up and began to walk away from the two toward the controls. Alarmed, Eva and Raf ran after the bot as he calibrated the ground bridge. Ratchet came running from behind, as the three watched Bumblebee walk into the ground bridge. Eva, Raf, and Ratchet analyzed the location that Bee had inputted into the system.

Ratchet had a look of worry as he explained, “These are the coordinates of our previous battle with Megatron’s undead.”

Eva chimed, “Maybe we should call Optimus.”

“Optimus is busy preventing a polar ice cap from melting. We need to handle this on our own.”

Ratchet opened the ground bridge again, allowing Bee to re-enter the base with dark Energon in hand. The aura emanating from it along with the stench of death invading the clean air made Eva feel nauseated. It felt as if pure evil had touched her leaving the hairs on the back of her neck standing. The blood of Unicron. To her left, Raf and Ratchet seemed to be physically fine, just shocked at the sight. Why was this only happening to her?

Bumblebee made his way forward, shoving Ratchet out his way as he re-calibrated the ground bridge and set them for new coordinates. He turned his attention towards Raf, grabbed him and set him down on one of the large embedded fans on the other side of the room. Eva hid behind a couch, trying to stay as quiet as possible.

When she heard his footsteps receding, Eva rushed down the platform steps as quietly as she could and ran after him through the groundbridge. After everything that had transpired in the last few days, she had come to appreciate these new beings. She couldn’t leave him be. The family that she had longed to have since she was ten was here. He was family.

Her mind went blank when she was met with the presence of Megatron’s still body once again. Eva tried to pound on Bee’s foot with her fists to prevent him from reaching Megatron. Yet, Bumblebee marched forward ignoring her incessant and futile attempts, and stabbed the Decepticon leader with the shard.

His eyes immediately opened revealing blood red irises with white pupils. His eyebrows were knit together in a menacing expression as his mouth curled into a smile revealing razor-sharp jagged teeth. As Raf and Ratchet entered the room, Megatron stood looming over them. A few Decepticon soldiers hurried inside as well and stopped in their tracks as they saw their leader standing healthy.

“Decepticons, you’re rightful lord and master has returned!” Looking beside him at his soldiers, Megatron commanded, “Finish these pests. I have my own extermination to perform.”

As he walks through the automatic doors, he looked curiously at Eva. They locked eyes for what seemed like hours, the momentary silence between them speaking volumes louder than any words could express. Eva felt as though he was giving her recognition, almost like a silent thanks for her accompaniment all those days ago. She shook her head, trying to physically restrain herself from deluding herself further.

●・○・●・○・●

“Death is mercy.”

The archivist looked beside him, looking into the solemn eyes of one whom he considered a brother. His optics were drawn to the large dents and scratches that littered the steel-gray metal exterior. Some wounds looked to be recent as traces of dried Energon trailed from them. Others looked to have been scars inflicted from the bot’s time in the mines; rock and metal simultaneously scraping and confining him all hours of the day as he slaved away.

The former slave, remained quiet as he observed the archivist’s interest. He was never one to elaborate, always keeping mum unless absolutely necessary. He knew his words had weight and he refused to crush others with them unless of course, they were the reason for his existence. The archivist was most definitely not one of them, an oppressor. He was a brother. One that he hoped to share his vision of the future with.

“Why?”

The former slave was piqued by the young archivist’s lust for knowledge, or rather, for the truth. Looking away from the innocent optics of the young bot, the former slave turned his head towards the horizon, formulating his response. He watched as the sun dipped, bringing forth an unwanted twilight to blanket the sky. He hated the darkness as it reminded him of his time underground.

“Only then would I be free.”

The archivist looked at the bot beside him puzzled. Freedom, as defined by his beloved archives, was the power to act, speak, or think as one wants without hindrance. Sitting on the ledge of one of the tallest skyscrapers in Iacon, the two were as free as can be. Free from the restraint of gravity, being able to observe the snoozing city from the clouds. Free from the burdens of responsibility, to be chained by the antics of politics or the routine of a conventional job. Free from slavery.

Basking in the presence of the setting sun, the two remained silent, enjoying a shared understanding. Some would observe them as a master mentoring his student, but really, their ordeal was one of two brothers. They were family and that would never change, or so they thought.

Soon they departed from the sacred ledge, as they had done at the start of every night. Retiring each to their cities, the former slave to his quarters in Kaon’s pits and the archivist to his quarters in the Hall of Records.

The next morning, every bot filed into the arena in Iacon for the ceremony of naming a new Prime. Orion wandered into the premises and observed the crowd to find his brother. Megatronus stood out like a sore thumb, his large bulky figure towered over those around him and his gray monotone exterior contrasted that of the colorful seekers he sat beside.

Noticing Orion below, Megatronus opted to stand and push his way through the mob that had gathered around him. His descent from the metallic steps sounded like music to Orion’s ears, who almost jumped up in elation. Finally, making it to his side, Megatronus put a hand on Orion’s shoulder sharing a look of anticipation with the younger bot.

Their leader and the current prime, Sentinel Prime, graced the eager audience with his presence as he appeared on the balcony of the arena with Alpha Trion at his side along with a few other High Council members.

He began with the routine speech that every Prime had bestowed for the last few centuries. Megatronus having seen such a commencement once before, had very little enthusiasm for such formalities. Orion on the other hand was bursting with glee and excitement as he was witnessing such a historic event for the first time in his life cycle. Megatronus looked down at him, smiling at the sight of Orion’s glee…

Eva snapped out of her trance as she awoke. These thoughts, these robots, this memory. It wasn’t hers. It seemed to be Megatron’s, but to Eva, that seemed absurd. There was no reason nor connection that would enable such a strange thing as sharing memories. Regardless, of how, Eva decided that she needed to tell someone about this before the situation got out of hand like it did with Bee. Yet it would have to wait a bit longer, she had to deal with school first.

The hours passed quickly and before she knew it, Eva had finished her school day. She sat on the bleachers much longer than she normally did as she waited for Optimus to get back from his outing. She could have gotten a ride from any of the other bots, but she wanted to spend more time with her new guardian.

Below her, in the field, she observed the players with a keen eye. Left with nothing to occupy herself with, she decided to study the game. The players on the varsity football team at Memorial High were no D1 athletes, but they were still quite high in the district rankings. Every player was relatively nice except for their star player–Vince. He wasn’t just a bully, he was an absolute terror to everyone that wasn’t in his little gang.

Though he often tortured Jack with his antics, he held no obvious animosity towards Eva. He only ever made fun of her out of association, never actually remarking anything specifically about her. Eva always brushed his comments aside whenever she heard him in the halls. At the bleachers though, that was a different story.

“Hey, pretty lady,” Vince whispered behind her, causing her to jolt forward.

Everyone at school knew the sibling-like bond that she and Jack had shared for years. Thus, Eva never understood why he was so nice to her when they were alone. She would’ve mistaken such actions as advances toward her long ago, but his constant torturing of Jack led her to believe otherwise.

“What do you want?” She replied sternly, trying to keep the interaction short.

“Haven’t seen Darby around the Drive-In lately and I miss his burgers. Mind telling me where he’s been?”

Ignoring his questioning altogether, Eva replied, “Shouldn’t you be down there practicing with the others.”

“And miss the rare opportunity to talk to my favorite girl?”

“Favorite girl my ass. I thought you were trying to get with Sierra.”

Amused he said, “Oh that…I just do that to piss off Darby.”

“Of course,” Eva replied, rolling her eyes.

“Hey, I’m not all that bad. How about you go out with me and I can show you just how good I can be.”

“Every day it’s something, isn’t it? Why can’t you leave me and Jack alone?”

“Darby’s a loser. You’ve gotta admit that. But you…you’re something else.”

“I know you’re baiting me, and unfortunately for you, I can see right through it. You’d be better off trying to bully someone else, cause I won’t take your shit anymore.” Eva threw the middle finger at him as she left the bleachers, bumping his shoulder on the way. Though she didn’t show it on her face, she was fuming.

Vince on the other hand, stared at her departing figure, entranced by the idea of constant rejection. He found thrill in a challenge and to him she was like no other. She was like a Christmas present wrapped in one, one that he planned to discard as soon as he ripped the packaging.

He could have chased after her but that seemed a little too desperate for him. Instead, he chose to go back to practice, smiling at the thought of his next plan to get her all to himself.

●・○・●・○・●

Optimus stood parked outside Eva’s house, waiting a while to make sure she was safe. Though he had met her only a few days ago, she seemed to be leaving quite an impact on his life. As was expected when it came to inter-species mingling, but the feeling of comfort that arose whenever she was near, resembled something that he hadn’t felt in cycles. It was undeniable that they were getting close.

He watched as a figure approached her door, clad in a trench coat and hat. He was tall for a human, his shoulders broad and his stature straight. His movements seemed calculated as with every step he took, his arms dangled at his side in a defensive position. The prime’s observations erupted worry, yet he eased as he watched Eva’s expression mirror one of recognition when she opened her front door.

Eva, on the other hand, felt insurmountable anger toward the man who stood in front of her. She knew her uncle was many things, but ignorant was not one of them. She knew that he tracked her whereabouts constantly, so why was it that the only time she was in danger, that he never came to save her?

“What the hell do you want?” She began, making her disdain apparent in her tone.

He mused, “Is that any way to greet your uncle?”

“Whatever happened to ‘keeping me safe’, huh? Did you fall off the face of the Earth or something?”

“What are you talking about? Of course, I want to keep you safe, I just wasn’t here the last few days.”

“That’s the best you got?”

“Eva, what happened to you?” His eyes reflected genuine regret and his interest in the recent scar on her palm made his frustration apparent. Taking hold of her palm, he interrogated, “What’s this?”

“That’s nothing.” Eva swiped her hand from his grasp and looked away. The memory of her kidnapping erupted in more melancholic emotions than she would have liked. She wanted to spill everything that had happened to her the past few days but realized that would only make his life more dangerous. She wanted to protect him, even if he couldn’t protect her. “Some jokers jumped me when I was near the edge of town. I was a little disoriented and couldn’t make it back home for a couple of days.”

He knew she was lying. She had no tell-tale sign of it, but it was an instinct that Silas had developed over the years. Instead of pressing into the situation further, he played along with her.

“Uh-huh. And did you get a good look at these guys?”

“No.”

“Well, if you remember anything, tell me immediately. I’ll make sure they won’t be messing with you ever again.”

“Mhm.”

“Listen…I’m heading out of town for a few days, maybe weeks. I won’t be able to use my phone since its pretty remote, but I’ll keep one of my employees watching over you. I promise you won’t go through anything like that ever again.”

“Just like that, you’re leaving again? How come you never stay?”

“Just business kid. When you join the workforce, you’ll understand.” He chuckles before he kisses Eva’s forehead and departs.

Left with an indifference that she had always felt after Silas’ visits, she slammed the door, packed her backpack, and called Optimus to meet her on the other side of the street. She knew Silas would be watching starting now, so she opted to sneak out from the backyard.

Sitting on the driver’s seat and closing the door, Eva took a long breath. Silas’ recent random check-in along with this sudden departure made it clear that there was something else going on. Regardless, he should have noticed that she went missing he should have done something to show that he cared. She didn’t want nor care about anything else, all she needed was a sign that she mattered to someone. These puzzling thoughts had translated into tears that built up in the corner of her eye, threatening to spill. It was the first time in years that she felt so pathetic, so useless, so unwanted.

Optimus, in an attempt to ease her tension, began to drive away from the neighborhood into the desert. She seemed to need some peace and quiet, and during his stay in Jasper thus far, the mech had found the perfect spot for such reverie.

They stopped at what seemed to be the center of the desert plain. Scattered cacti dotted the arid landscape and gave color to the dry, cracked earth. The breeze carried with it the faint scent of desert blooms and sun-baked earth. The silence had them in a comforting embrace, forming a sanctuary like none Eva had ever felt.

Eva got out of the truck as Optimus transformed out of his alt form. He sat with his knees bent and his arms behind him for support. Eva approached, and leaned against his foot, sitting with her hands in her lap.

Optimus began, “Would you like to talk about it?”

“What’s there to say? He always leaves and keeps his distance, but this…How could he not know what happened to me and how could he leave after knowing?” She sniffled, trying to prevent her tears from spilling again. Once she finally calmed, she whispered just loud enough for Optimus to hear, “Is he going to leave me like they did?”

Empathetic, he wanted to understand more about her situation, “And who is this man?”

“My uncle, Silas.”

Taken aback by the familiarity of the name Optimus felt reluctant to continue. Did she know what Silas did? Who he really was? Was her kidnapping all a ploy to infiltrate the team? But he brushed his doubts aside when he noticed the genuine pain on her face. Wanting to know more, he played coy. “Silas?”

Eva felt inclined to open up to Optimus. She needed someone to talk to and despite her apprehension, decided that letting him know her past wouldn’t hurt her in the long run. “My parents left me a few years ago and he’s acted like my occasional guardian ever since. I don’t know much about what he does, just that he’s ex-military and his new line of work requires him to travel a lot.”

“And do you know where he’s headed this time? What he’s up to?”

“Some remote island. Probably meeting with a business partner or something. I mean, it’s gotta be something or someone more important than me.”

Optimus understood that she had been left in the dark. Now the question was, would he break the news to her, or let her find out for herself? Either way, she’d have been betrayed, and knowing her lineage, he feared that she may very soon become a threat. As much as he had developed a liking for her, he had to put his team first. No matter what.

Eva leaned further into the mech and shot him a cheeky smile. “Thank you, for everything. It seems you’re the only family I’ve got with me now.”

“And Silas? He’s still alive.”

“But you’re here and he’s not.”

Her words erupted a disgusting guilt. He hated the fact that he had to doubt her, yet he had to remain cautious. It wasn’t the first time that someone close to him had betrayed him. Regardless, he shoved his thoughts into the back of his mind and relished the brief moment of time they had away from reality.

Okay this is going to be super off topic but I had a random thought for the Mr. Pax au

So you know how June had a crush on Optimus? Imagine if June meets Mr. Pax and has a crush on him. Jack would be mortified and it would definitely make parent/teacher conferences a little bit awkward

Boy oh boy I bet it is awkward.

Previous post here.

━━━━━━ ⊙ ❖ ⊙ ━━━━━━━━━━━━

Elita may have been new to Earth, but even she could see the way the human woman stared longingly at her Conjunx. Of course, the one called June was completely unaware of the fact that Mr. Pax the history teacher was in fact Optimus Prime, but for Elita, that made the whole affair more humorous. Optimus had politely refused to acknowledge the occasional comments about Jack's teacher and Elita knew it was not her place to interfere unless things became serious.

She and Optimus spoke about the issue and opted to let it be until it became necessary to dash June's affection. But of course, that time came sooner than expected when the time came for parent teacher conferences not too long after her arrival on Earth.

"Jack is aware of your identity. What do you plan to do?" Elita stood at her Conjunx's side as he worked at the console. He turned away from his work and met her gaze. He smiled faintly and his optics cycled wide like they used to before he became Prime.

"A gentle message will suffice." Optimus's field wrapped around her comfortingly, with the barest hint of mirth. Elita recognized the concoction of emotion and laughed outright as he all but read Optimus's mind.

Orion Pax had not been a comedic character, but he was particularly good at the higher caste surprises that always left a mech gaping. Political intrigue was not something he generally enjoyed, but he was a fantastic player and knew how to put on a show.

"Do you intend to reveal yourself as well?" Grasping Optimus's servo, Elita watched a coy grin play on his features. How long had it been since she'd seen her beloved have any sort of fun?

"Perhaps. It would certainly save us all a few uncomfortable situations." Optimus grinned like he was a young mech again. Elita couldn't help but laugh once more and lean against him. This was going to be amusing.

━━━━━━

Elita waited patiently outside of Optimus's office and listened as he discussed Jack's performance in class. She watched the events playing out on a handheld device the humans called a 'phone' with a slight grin. June Darby was professional throughout most of it, but as the meeting progressed and Jack seemed to shrink in on himself with every passing moment, June finally made her move as she packed up.

"Thank you for your time Mr. Pax. If you don't mind me asking, could I possibly have your number?" Elita had to bite back a laugh as she watched her Conjunx pause in putting Jack's files away. The poor boy in question seemed ready to explode as he caught sight of the glint in Optimus's eyes.

"I am afraid I can't do that." Optimus placed his papers down and Elita took the opportunity to step into the office, the 'phone' put away and out of the view.

"All done love?" Elita was quick to wrap her arms around her Conjunx's shoulders as he sat at his desk, smug as ever. Not that anyone except Elita would notice the possessive nature that remained hidden behind his Primely visage.

June looked like she'd been slapped in the face. Elita couldn't say she blamed the woman. June was familiar with Elita's holoform. In fact, it had been June who helped her design it. The fact that Elita was here and being so openly affectionate with 'Mr. Pax' had to be startling through implication alone.

"As you can see, I am quite taken with my darling wife as you humans say." Jack seemed to have given up on life as June processed the information. There was a brief moment where June seemed to have broken something in her processor before it finally clicked and she gripped the desk in shock.

"OPTIMUS?!?"

Yeah, waiting around had been worth it.

Cybertronians meet the bloody Mary

Words: 2090

Optimus Prime x gender-neutral reader x Ratchet

Fluff/Comfort

Notice: This is a comfort fic for people with a uterus, suffering through their menstrual cycle. Meaning blood, function and structure of the uterus will be mentioned/explained.

I use Bloody Mary a lot in this fic not cause I am ashamed of having a period but more so because I found it funny to give it a name. Also not everyone’s period goes the same way so your period experience may differ from person to person.

This was a request from @theemoteam5994, that I was more than happy to write.

It was a pretty standard Friday evening I was sitting on the couch next to Miko reading a new book, I just got. Ratchet was working on the control panels recalibrating the ground bridge, Optimus stood at his control panel writing the report of the last mission for agent Fowler meanwhile Bulkhead repaired the lob ball. Jack had work, Raphael was out of country visiting family, which led Bumblebee and Arcee to drive patrol today. Resulting in Miko and me to hanging out alone. Which was fine it was a nice to not do anything for once.

Unexpected I started to feel something damp my pants, or to be precise my underwear. Oh, you gotta be kidding me. Mentally counting the days back since the last time, it happened and concluding that it had been indeed a month now, a defeated sigh escaped my lips. Which in turn made Miko turned to me in confusion.

“Whoa you good, what’s with the defeated sigh you sound like me when we are about to write a test.”

“Miko please just shut up and let me suffer in silence and desperation.”

“Yeesh since when are you so grumpy.”

“Since the high and mighty royal majesty, the bloody Mary decided to show up.”

“Ah Dave decided to visit.”

That caused me to raise a brow at Miko, to which she gave me a smile.

“Dave? Do I want to know.”

“You know that one sound “God, fucking damnit Dave, there goes the last shit I ever gave.”

“Omg, that’s genius.”

“Yes, it’s hilarious when you’re having period pain and just scream fucking Dave.”

“Oh man, Miko you’re a genius. By the way do you have tampons or a pad? I forgot my period bag.”

“Oh, shit did you just get it?”

“Yeah, and I would like to not have to explain to gigantic alien why my pants are red and what the menstrual cycle is.”

“Haha, understandable, I really wouldn’t want to explain what’s going on down there to Bulky.”

Giggling to each other, I’m forced to double over as a sharp pain shoot through my lower abdomen, causing a hiss of pain to escape me.

“Man, is your period always like that? It looks really painful. I mean my crams hurt to, but they are at least somewhat manageable.”

“Unfortunately, yes the problem with these I have to physically double over and can’t ignore them like the others.”

“That sucks. How about you go put on a pad or tampon or both and I call June if she can bring painkillers for you..”

“Oh my god Miko you’re a saint thanks.”

“No prob. The bag is in my front pocket underneath my slash monkey cd.”

Gratefully I go over to her bag as Miko makes her way to the medbay to find June. Finding the small cotton bag I take it out, zip Mikos bag back up and move hurriedly to the washrooms. Oh my god there is nothing more uncomfortable than sitting in a puddle of your own blood.

Coming back into the main hangar I moved towards the designated “human area” as Ratchet so lovingly nicknamed it. Miko was the first to notice my return and waved, as I climbed the stairs up. She intercepted me as I reached the stairs, I wordlessly gave her the little bag back, before she bend over and started whispering.

“Hey I called June and she said she bring some Aspirins and a few heating pads.”

“God I love that women, and you, bless you.”

“Yeah try to remember that the next time I go through the ground bridge.”

“Different issue Miko.”

“Ugh, well whatever, June said she bring the supplies when she picks up Jack after his shift.”

“Why does Nurse Darby have to bring painkillers and heating pads, and would you be so kind as to tell me why you didn’t think to inform me that you are unwell.”

Simultaneous Miko and I froze up as the very distinct sarcastic and very much unamused voice of the resident medic, rang from behind us. Turning around we were confronted with a very pissed of looking Ratchet.

“Ok you look like you can handle this right well my part is done, HEY BULKY LET’S GO DUNE BASHING.”

Miko didn’t hesitate to leave me alone and run up to the railing jumping onto her guardians servo as he immediately transformed around her and proceeded to race out of the base. Sharing his charges unwillingness to become a target of Ratchets anger. Left alone under Ratchets piercing gaze, I do my best to avoid eye contact.

“So, are you inclined to tell me now why you didn’t think it necessary to come to me for medical attention.”

“Oh uhm it’s really not that big of a deal.”

“If I didn’t treat every one that said “oh, that’s not that big of a deal” this entire team would be dead by now. So unless you miraculously became doctor you com to me with any kind of medical issue. Did I make myself clear?”

“Ratchet, it’s really none of your concern, I am fine.”

Quiet. It was deadly quiet, you could have heard a pin drop. Ah shit, I fucked up, I fucked up big time. I did the one thing you don’t do, ever. I broke the one rule on the base, crossed the one line even Optimus doesn’t cross. Don’t backtalk Ratchet when it’s about medical decision. Well it was a good life.

“Oh it’s none of my concern is it? My how interesting would you care to elaborate on why that is?”

“I...I I am sorry Ratchet, I didn’t mean it like th-ughnn.”

A sharp pain went trough my lower abdomen forcing me to hug myself as I doubled over. As the pain subsided and I was able to stand upright again, a green light beam went over my body. Looking up I was met with the sight of a very concerned Ratchet and an equally worried Optimus. When did he come over here, weird? I was ripped out of my train of thoughts as a sharp exhale escaped Ratchets vents.

“YOU ARE LOSING BLOOD AS WELL AS PART OF YOUR INNER LINING IS DETIRIOURATING AND YOU RUN AROUND HERE ACTING LIKE EVERYTHING IS FINE.”

“Because it is?”

Apparently, that was not the right or more like best thing to say. I could already see the oncoming triage, Ratchet was going to put me through. Just as he prepared to chew me out and preach his speech on taking proper care of oneself, a big servo landed on his shoulder plate. Optimus gently pulled Ratchet back before coming closer, bending down to my level.

“We are worried about you. Asking for help is nothing to be ashamed about.”

“Hmpf, especially if you lose essential organic fluids.”

“Ah, shit that’s not it’s, aww geez uh scrap how do I explain it.”

“While we both would appreciate an explanation, please don’t feel cornered or forced to please us. Though I do have to ask you to use a different manner of speech.”

“Huh, oh yeah sorry about that big guy. Just give me a minute”

Seeing Optimus giving a nod and even Ratchet, though begrudgingly, give me some space, I take a deep breath. Ok first me being a nervous wreck is not going to help anyone. So deep breaths, everything is fine. It’s not like you are going to have to explain how and what the menstrual cycle is, to gigantic aliens. Man, I sometimes hate my life so much. Letting out a deep sigh I turn around I make my way to the two bots.

“Ok, so first of all, I am ok, I will not bleed out or am sick with a terminal disease. What’s happening to me is a natural process that happens every month for more or less than a week depending on the person. Every person with a uterus goes through this with some exceptions. Yes, that includes June and Miko as well.”

Optimus and Ratchets frames slightly relax, tough confusion is still visible on their faceplates. Well, more on Ratchets than Optimus, though the leader frame is less rigid than before.

“But you are bleeding, isn’t the leaking of blood indication of an injury, do you mean it is natural for humans to injure their uterus every month?”

“What no we aren’t injured.”

“Perhaps it would help us understand better, if you were to explain on how this “menstrual cycle works.”

“OH, uhm sure. First of all the uterus is one of the reproductive organ’s humans have to reproduce. Each month, blood and tissue build up in the uterus to prepare for a fertilized egg in case a woman becomes pregnant. Important humans give live birth to their young not like other animals in eggs. Eggs is simply what we call the cell. If the egg isn't fertilized, that lining leaves the body through the vagina and that is what is called the period.”

Trough the explanation my eyes had driven away from the bots not wanting to see their faces of disgust.

“But then what is the menstrual cylcle? And that still doesn’t understand why you were in pain.”

Confused I look back up at Ratchet as he looked at me expectantly. Switching my point of view to Optimus he carries a similar expression though way more subtle than Ratchets.

“You, you aren’t disgusted?”

“Why would we I mean, its obvious a bit strange due to our different biologys. But so is your entire race.”

“As you explained, your period is a natural occurrence, there is no fault in that.”

“Oh ok.”

“You still haven’t answered my question.”

“Huh? Oh, yeah there are a lot of names for the period, like menstrual cycle, strawberry week.”

“I thank you for the explanation but there is still concern on your earlier episode of pain.”

“Oh yeah uhm, so basically to flush everything out, the uterus contracts itself which can lead to pain. How much pain someone experience is different for everyone. And well mine is sometimes so bad I double over.”

Both bots fall into back into silence, exchanging glances like they were silently communicating. Feeling slightly Causing me to shuffle my feet on the ground. Until Ratchets open servo comes up to me, an invitation to step into it. Confused I look at both Ratchet and Optimus. Sensing my confusion Ratchet responds.

“It is unreasonable to let someone alone when they are in pain, so get on.”

“What, no I am fine, I have dealt with this for the past 6 years on my own.”

“You should be resting.”

“No, I still have things to do I don’t need to rest.”

“Please do understand that we are just worried.”

Damn you Optimus, for making me feel bad about refusing help. Reluctantly I carefully climb onto Ratchets servo. Letting out a satisfied hum, he lifts me up to his chest, curling his digits gently around me. Carefully moving across the base, we go through a corridor I haven’t been in yet, only to land in front of a humongous door trough which Ratchet and Optimus can walk without any problems. Ratchet crosses the room and gently lays me down on the gigantic bed. Before turning around and walking around the bed to the other side before laying down himself.

Meanwhile, Optimus was closing a drawer, holding something I couldn’t make out and moved to join us. He deposited the content of his servo onto the berth near Ratchet. Before I could ask what and why they brought those things, my feet yet again left the ground.

Warmth surrounded me and weirdly a lot of red. Wiggling around I finally found the end of the blanket and looked up, only to be met, with two pairs of kind optics looking down at me.

“What’s all that?”

“We researched that warmth and comfort in the form of affection, food and a comforting environment prove, helpful when dealing with period pains.”

“Wait, you guys searched the internet to help me? Aww that’s so sweet.”

“Hmpf, well we can’t leave you alone in this time of you err, month.”

A smile starts forming, I snuggle back into the blankets happy about being so well cared for. My eyes are starting to feel heavy as a yawn escapes me, exhausted from the day’s events, I don’t fight the sleepiness taking over my body. Safe, warm, and protected by the two gentle guardians on each side of me.

Jack Darby x reader!

So since Optimus lost his memory Jack was doing the leader acting and it was tiring him out very much having so much pressure on him was to much for him to handle so one day he couldn't take it no more and went to you after breaking down.

〰︎〰︎〰︎〰︎〰︎〰︎☽☾☽☾〰︎〰︎〰︎〰︎〰︎〰︎〰︎

As Jack waited for night to fall not waiting another second Before getting dressed back into his normal clouths and sneaking out of his own window making sure his mother doesn't see

Jack ran and ran untill he got to you're house rain falling which was rare around these parts Jack slowly climbed to you're window and knocked a few times not know arcee, Miko, bulkhead, bumblebee, raf, and the rest was following him

Jack knocked a few times on you're window

〰︎〰︎〰︎〰︎☽you're POV☾〰︎〰︎〰︎〰︎〰︎

As I hear knocks on my window I instally knew who it was my boyfriend Jack so I got up and opened my window and Jack climbed in falling

"Ow...." Jack grumbled

I chuckled slightly Jack has told me about the Autobots and deceptioncons never wanted me to get involved because he wants me to be safe and not in danger so I understand him and avoided trying to get involved with the Autobots but sometimes Jack would come to my house crying a breaking down like when poor rafeal almost died, the spider attack, the scraplets, and his mom finding out, keeping the others safe, and now that Optimus prime lost his memory Jack had to take all the pressure

"Jack are you ok? It's midnight and you look alot... How do I say this stressed out and drained..." As soon as I said those words Jack started to breakdown hugging me tightly tears falling down like a child crying after getting hurt the only thing I could do was to hug him back as Jack cried and cried

"I just can't anymore... I feel so tired..." soon after Jack says that I felt Jacks body slowly go tired in my arms I slowly drag Jack back to my bed as Jack fell asleep in my arms

〰︎〰︎〰︎〰︎☾the teams pov☽〰︎〰︎〰︎〰︎

"Did Jack just..." Miko spoke

"Breakdown yes..." raf confirmed The team was confused and sad Jack dealt with so much and seeing him cry in his only choice of comfort was saddening

"I guess that's how he deals with it all..." Arcee spoke up sad of how much pressure they were putting on jack after losing Optimus or now orin and Jack wanting you to be safe not telling the others he told them to you wanting to keep you safe

They felt ashamed...

〰︎〰︎〰︎〰︎〰︎〰︎〰︎☽☾☽☾〰︎〰︎〰︎〰︎〰︎〰︎

The day came where Optimus finally gained his memories back Jack was relifed of all calming down slowly but something crack in him that made him feel useless and...

WORTHLESS...

Jack was freaked out by that voice that voice wasn't his or was it? He didn't know who to tell the others wouldn't belive him... But then... The incident came the base fell.... By the decepticons

"DAMN IT!!!!!!!!!"

Jack screamed in his room after the base fallen he angry, confuse, sad,...he doesn't know... Something... No... SOMEONE... is in his head he needed to calm down...

As Jack stomped down stairs June not home he pasted the garage arcee spoke

"Were you going aren't you supposed to sleep at this hour?" arcee said in a confused voice

"Friends house...DON'T FOLLOW..." Jack voice darkened scaring arcee Jack walked out of the house running while arcee started to drive toward him so Jack ran faster his hair started glowing a slight cyan blue with a purple streak untill...

Jack started being followed by the whole Autobot crew even reafeal and Miko without him knowing arcee has been ready for this along with everyone else so Jack was now at you're house not seeing the crew following him

Jack then climed into you're window scaring you because you didn't even know Jack was coming but when you looked at his hair you knew something was wrong...

〰︎〰︎〰︎〰︎〰︎☽you're POV☾〰︎〰︎〰︎〰︎

"Jack you're hair it's..." you gulped Jack eyes purple and almost soulless then you looked more down...

A matrix... A MATRIX GROWING INSIDE HIM.......... HOW IN THE WORLD?!

"J-jack! A-a matrix! It's.." you cover you're mouth with you're hand Jack didn't even seem bothered AT ALL you stepped a few step away from Jack just Jack just stepped closer to you

"Don't be afraid please... I am not going to hurt you..." Jack sounded in pain so without thinking from you're stupid brain you hugged him Jack was emotionless but hugged you back Then you felt the power and pain from the matrix you wanted to back away because of the pain but you stayed close to him

"Jack... Hurts..." you then faint all you're energy drained out of you not know that Jack was now glowing as Jack held you in his embrace rafeal and Miko comes busting in seeing you in jacks arms as Jack looks up at Miko Jack then says coldly

"If you're gonna take me take her with me..." Miko nods and Miko, Jack, you, and rafeal go out Jack holding you tightly whispering words in you're ear as Jack saw the crew June runs up to Jack but the rest stop her that's not Jack anymore...
