i forgot the one who just looks at me and meows to get my attention

[in1-nutshell]

I need more Ranidae.  I need Ranidae being clingy and following Jack and Arcee to the Darby residents.  Oh no, it looks like they're going on a night time drive.  Oh fuck thats mech, OH FUCK THATS HIS DEAD MOM!  I need Ranidae standing up to his mother to protect his new friends, I need Airachnid being a manipulative bitch.  And I need Arcee to grapple with the realization that her boy is actually Airachnid’s boy.  I yearn for the drama

Ranidae just wants to make frog friends not get dragged through the mud in drama... yet here we are.

Hope you enjoy!

Ranidae and Arachnid reunion

SFW, Platonic, Angst, Familial, Cybertronian reader

TFP

It was on June’s second visit to the base when she met Ranidae.

The first time she visited, the bot was sleeping after having a long day in the marshes and scrubbing algae out of his joints.

June was not expecting a small bot to be following Jack around.

June: “Jack.” Jack stopped as Ranidae stopped at the new voice. June puts her hands on her hips. June: “Care to explain your shadow there?” Jack: “Mom this is Ranidae. Ranidae this is my mom.” Ranidae looks from Jack to June. Ranidae: “Your mom?” He nods. Ranidae walks quietly over to June, stares at her for a bit before smiling and patting her head. June: “Umm, nice to meet you too.” Ranidae still smiles at her. June turns to Jack. June: “So, what does he bring to the table.” Jack: “He isn’t allowed out on missions yet.” June: “Why? Because he’s small? Arcee is small but that doesn’t stop her.” Jack: “Mom, Ranidae is a kid by bot standards. Not even teen years yet.” June pales a bit as Ranidae continues to pet her ponytail. June: “What?! Who’s his parents!?” Jack: “We don’t know, but Arcee sort of adopted him.” Ranidae nods. Ranidae: “She is a good mom.”

And June accepted this challenge.

 Jack and Ranidae were both in the crossfire of the ongoing battle of the mother figures.

Mama June vs Mama Arcee.

Jack is banging his head on the wall with how weird and embarrassing these things can get.

Ranidae is just happy to have 2 moms.

Both who are way better than Arachnid.

June gave some of the best hugs, despite her smaller size.

She was surprised to see that the smaller bot turned into a frog.

But all things considered, it suited him.

Though she would soon find out that said alt mode came with… surprises.

Most famously, sticking onto objects and staying quiet.

June and Jack return back home in their car. Jack: “Thanks for the ride back, Mom. Arcee was too busy with today’s mission.” June slightly rolls her eyes. June: “Its no problem, Jack. But I can’t help but feel sorry for Ranidae. He is without proper care for too long and—” RIBIT! Both human’s freeze as a pair of robotic frog eyes. Ranidae: “Hi Miss June! I’m okay!” Jack and June: “Ranidae!” Jack: “What have you been on the top of the car the whole time?” Ranidae: “We where playing hide and seek remember? I put the tarp on and hid… I’m guessing the game is over?” Jack: “Kind of is.” Ranidae looks sad. Ranidae: “I’m sorry.” June: “Its fine, hun.” Jack: “…This is going to be an interesting phone call.”

Ranidae got grounded after that.

No frog hunting for a week.

That might as well have been the equivalent of a death sentence with how miserable the bot looked.

There was one point where Bumblebee was holding Ranidae under his arms, with the most depressed look on their faces.

The scout showed Arcee the bot and practically begging for him to go frog hunting.

He would even watch him!

But no more of… this…

Arcee: “No.” Bumblebee: “Beep beepbop (Please! I’ll watch him! He just looks so miserable here.)” Ranidae does a pitiful croak in their alt mode. Bumblebee holds him higher. Bumblebee: “Beep! (See!)” Arcee is desperately trying to hold it together. Acree: “What I said—” Ranidae does a loud and pitiful croak and visibly deflates. Arcee: “… You have 2 hours. Time starts now.”

It was rare for Ranidae to go venturing out of the base without supervision.

But Arcee had been so stressed lately, and he knew the perfect bunch of flowers to give.

Quietly placing the groundbridge coordinates, Ranidae tried walking out.

Only to get stopped by the kids.

Ranidae promised that he just wanted to get Arcee some flowers.

Jack agreed to go along with, while Miko and Raf stayed behind.

It was nighttime and no one was around the pond, perfect.

Jack chuckled to himself as Ranidae eagerly went to the pond and started picking ‘the best flowers and plants.

They were about to leave when a web caught Ranidae’s pede.

There was only one bot he knew that could do this.

Jack looked surprised at the webs. Jack: “What in the—” Ranidae pushed him towards some trees. Ranidae: “Don’t come out Jack! Not for anything!” Jack was confused but decided to hide. A helicopter suddenly appeared in the sky and transformed in front of Ranidae. It was Arachnid. Ranidae managed to get out of the web and stood straighter. Arachnid: “Well, well, look how far my little one has gone. I thought I raised you better than to run off too far.” Ranidae: “…Hi…” Arachnid chuckles darkly while walking over and cupping the bots face. A sickly-sweet look on her face. Arachnid: “Come now, is that any way to talk to your mother.” Ranidae: “No, Mama…” Arachnid: “Good. Good. Now, I thought I saw you talking to something.” She moves towards the trees, but Ranidae quickly moves in front of her waving his arms. Ranidae: “A bird! I saw a bird carrying a mouse up a tree! I thought they could understand me!” Arachnid seemed to have bought this. Arachnid: “Poor child, you have been alone for too long. Now, come to mother and we’ll go to our new home.” She grabbed his servo tightly. Ranidae: “Where are we going?” Arachnid: “To the Nemesis. Lord Megatron will be waiting.” He quickly glanced back to where Jack was hiding and flashed a sad smile. Arachnid transformed into her alt mode, while using a web to stick Ranidae and fly off. Jack came out to see the retreating forms leave. Jack goes to the com lines.’ Jack: “Raf! I need a groundbrigde right now!”

Miko and Raf immediately know something went wrong when Jack is sprinting through the groundbridge, a bouquet of flowers in hand but no sign of Ranidae.

He quickly gives them the run down of what went down.

They don’t know what’s more shocking.

The fact that Ranidae’s real mother was Arachnid.

Or that he had been kidnapped by Arachnid.

They needed to get the bots in on this now.

Jack through the com lines. Jack: “We need you guys back at the base!” The bots are just finishing fighting. Arcee: “We’re a little bit busy right now Jack!” Bulkhead throws a Con over his shoulder. Bulkhead: “Real busy!” Raf: “Its Ranidae!” Arcee almost stops. Bumblebee: “Boop? (What happened?)” Miko: “He got kidnapped by his real mom! And she’s Arachnid!” Arcee full on freezes. Arcee: “WHAT?!” Meanwhile on the Nemesis… Arachnid drags Raniade to the throne room. He visibly gulps in fear seeing the mighty Megatron. Arachnid: “My Lord, I have brought you a new recruit. My own sparkling.” Megatron glares at him. Ranidae just wants to be back at the base where its safe. Megatron: “Step forward.” Ranidae takes a couple steps forward. Megatron: “What is your designation?” Ranidae: “R-Ranidae.” He raises an optic. Ranidae: “I mean Lord Megatron!” He nervously bows at him. Megatron looks back at Arachnid: “He is yours?” Arachnid: “Adopted.” Megatron nods. Megatron walks forward to the youngling. Ranidae wishes that he could say sorry to Arcee for leaving the base. Megatron: “Hmm… we shall see what good is he. Have him report to the med bay for Knockout to check him over. No doubt the organic filth has seeped into his wiring.” Arachnid: “Of course. Ranidae.” Arachnid grabs harshly at the youngling servo and drags him down the dark hall. He wishes he had told Arcee he loved her one last time.

A selection of John Lennon's diary entries were published in Q 132 in September 1997, here are the ones mentioning Paul:

April 19, 1977 McCartney called. First time in years. Played me this song down the telephone. It was waltz time and appeared to be about a remote Scottish island. Asked if I could help out with the lyrics. I told him they were fine but suggested that he start the song with bagpipes. I think he fell for it. January 6, 1980 Just heard some incredible news! McCartney has been busted at Tokyo Airport. Rumour is the guards are keeping him in a cell and forcing him to sing Yesterday over and over and over again. That's a bit harsh, it was only a bit of pot. July 6, 1980 Great idea for a song! A kind of penny opera thing but instead of people singing, you have hundreds of toads "ribitting". Could call it the Toad Chorus or something. Called McCartney to get some feedback. Fucker said it was a rubbish idea! What the fuck does he know? I could get Ringo to sing the verses!

So I frogged Rolan's foot - not a euphemism, for non-knitters: it means to rip out stitches. Get it? Rip it rip it, which sounds like ribit ribit that a frog would say; frogged knitting. Anyways, so far, I'm preferring the new way I'm doing it with invisible increases. Wondering if I should use smaller needles tho for better stitching. Ah well, I'll see how it goes.
