#rid clampdown

[jazzy-man13]

Hi! If it's okay to request/ask, could you do a scenario/headcanon of tfrid 2015, Steeljaw's pack, with human (gn! or f!) Reader? Romantic/Platonic

Human Reader's a cinnamon roll, and has the personality/backstory of Perrito from Puss in Boots movie. They're very motherly and therapy-like friend and also a Pacifist but can be passive-aggressive…

Steeljaw's pack x cinnamon roll gn human hcs

Grrrrr hello anon! Ty for the request, I hope this is what you were looking for- I can always do another if not 🫶(I haven't watched tfrid in a hot minute, hopefully I didn't forget anyone- lmao)

Steeljaw: He admires your ability to keep everyone in check in spite of your small size, though you're also slightly unnerving to him. How can you be so kind and patient after the life you've lived? He trusts you, but he'll also try to keep an eye on you, just in case.

Thunderhoof: To him, you're a pleasant change of pace compared to the rest of the group. Since you're so kind and relaxed, he often goes to you to unwind after a long day. Of course, in front of the others he'd treat you the same as everyone else, but when he's alone with you he's actually a pretty decent dude.

Fracture (+Divebomb & Airazor): He'd never admit it, but he's rather fond of you. Sometimes he worries about you since you're a pacifist, and he'll try to convince you to train with him and teach you some swordsmanship skills. As he sees your ability to keep people in check with your passive-aggressiveness, he slowly relaxes and doesnt bother you about training as much. His minicons, Divebomb and Airazor, are obsessed with you. They think you're amazing! They always try to grab your attention to play games with you while the others are on missions. You're like a parent to them, and Fracture only trusts you to watch over them when he can't take them on a mission.

Underbite: He tries to keep up his tough and intimidating reputation, but he's really just a big sweetheart. Underneath all that bulk is a golden retriever personality, and it shines around you. He'd die on the spot if anyone ever found out, but he loves playing catch with you. You always make sure that he gets enough metal to eat so he doesn't get distracted during missions, and his performance continues to improve thanks to you.

Clampdown: Whenever he gets in trouble with the others, which is often, he'll run to hide behind you. Your pleasant demeanor is usually able to calm the situation before someone loses their cool at him. The poor coward clings to you like glue, staying with you for protection.

Chapter two: Peas in a Pod

┆ ┆ ┆ ┆⋆┆ ┆ ┆ ┆⋆┆ ┆ ┆ ┆⋆┆ ┆ ┆ ┆⋆┆ ┆ ┆ ┆⋆┆ ┆ ┆ ┆⋆

Dragging the blue silvery pod was proven to be a task even as Drift did his best to drag the thing out of the ditch, but with the help of his Minicons, they managed to get it out and called the rest for transportation.

—----------------------------

Once they returned with their findings, Fixit worked away as he examined the exterior of the pod.

“Good work on finding the source.” Bumblebee complimented Drift for his excellent findings. The bounty hunter nodded, at least he didn’t explain his embarrassing story of how he stumbled upon it.

“Hey guys, what do we-” Denny was about to ask when he and Russell spotted the pod, blue eyes widened in awed as they approached the team. The light reflecting off the pod’s surface added a wonder to it, like a good fortune is about to come.

“Up, up, up, you’re not coming any closer now Denny Clay!” Fixit intervened as the orange Minicon obscured the pod out of the humans’ view.

“I’m still in the middle of analyzing, however my scanner deduced this pod is an escape pod; albeit a small one.”

“An escape pod?” murmured Bumblebee as he examined the exterior. He doesn’t see why this pod could be special, though it vaguely bears a stronger resemblance to the stasis pods, the ones they imprisoned captured Decepticons from their missions, except for the brilliance gleam of silvery blue. Like it supposed to represent importance to whomever lost it, the glass frosted over that nobody could see through, and down to the middle is a very strange carving. 

Bumblebee failed to notice the carving thanks to the overly flashy outer shell, his shadow blocked out the sun’s light as he got a good view. Those strange carvings are no other than Cybertronians glyphs, and it’s also one sentence.

“What did you find?” piped Jetstorm as he passed the dream-stuck Clays and approached beside Bumblebee, curious of what the bigger bot saw.

“Oh, Jetstorm,” Bumblebee replied as he made a nonverbal gesture of lifting Jetstorm, to which he nodded and picked the Minicon to get a view as well. “I just found Cybertronian writing in the middle, and it seems it only had one sentence no less.”

“One sentence? Just one?”

“I believe so.”

“Whaaat?” whined Fixit as he wheeled over to Bumblebee, and he saw the glyphs as well.

“Well?” Sideswipe chimed as he, Grimlock, Strongarm, Drift, the Clays, and Slipstream gathered around the pod, eager to know the short sentence. “What did it say?”

—---------------------------------------------------------------------------

High in a nearby hill by the scrapyard, a pointed ear flicked as the sound it heard traveled. His fanged smile grew ever so slightly.

“A short sentence?” Clampdown murmured as he is assigned to be Steeljaw’s parrot, relaying the information from the Wolficon as nobody in the Pack had excellent hearing as Steeljaw. Not to mention being a curious crab.

“You heard that right brother,” a chill coo from Steeljaw’s voicebox that made Clampdown so nervous “they found a pod with glyphs. Doesn’t it make you excited? About whatever it could be inside?”

“Not really,” Thunderhoof grumbled, “whatever is in there is really not worthy.”

“Patience, Thuderhoof,” the Wolficon smoothly replied to the ex-mob boss as he swiveled his head back to the direction of the conversation “patience.”

—--------------------------------------------------------------------------

“Let’s see..” Bumblebee squinted at the small writing as he studied them.

Everyone patiently waited in anticipation, all optics, hidden ears, and eyes trained to the yellow bot, before the first word was spilled.

“May…”

“Yeah?” Sideswipe whispered as to not be loud.

“The…”

Everyone leaned in closer, dying to know.

“Starlings…”

“Bring…”

“Eternal…”

“Ooooohhhhh I can’t take it!” Grimlock whispered, desperately wanting this to be over with.

“Happiness…” was the last sentence Bumblebee read. Everyone was quiet, some were expecting something to happen, and others were stumped by whatever message this sentence was supposed to mean.

“May the starlings bring eternal happiness?” Sideswipe said as he looked over the sentence as he read it “what in the Primes’ is that supposed to mean?”

—----------------------------------------------------------------------------

The other Pack members were confused by what Clampdown last said, ‘May the starlings bring eternal happiness’? What the scrap is that about. Before they even about to question Steeljaw, who is still listening, the leader hissed at them to be silent and let him listen.

“Don’t utter another word, something is about to happen and I know it!”

Steeljaw was right, something did happen at the scrapyard, and others were there to witness it… and it was so beautiful as a light shot at the blue afternoon sky.

—-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Just as he placed his servo on top of the glyphs, Bumblebee shot back and fell as a strong beacon of light rose towards the sky, making the world around them a little white. The Bee Team had no idea how it happened, well, Bumblebee is to blame, but how on Earth are they going to stop it and bring unwanted attention.

For roughly ten seconds, the beam died down and everything was back to normal. Bumblebee got up and checked on the pod, while others emerged from their hiding spots and checked as well.

“What even is that?!” Strongarm asked as she was beside her lieutenant, eyeing at the pod.

“No clue.” Bumblebee replied.

Everyone once again gathered around the pod, all were in shock. The glyphs were glowing along with the rim of the pod sliding door, then suddenly the plaque, in a shape of a circle, twisted counterclockwise in three twirls, and by the fourth the door hissed as steaming air escaped.

The latch opened and the Bee Team leaned in for a closer inspection, drawing their weapons and bracing for whatever is in the pod.

Once the stream is clear, they all pointed at the chamber and were in shock once more. The pod itself is… empty? They all looked in and found nothing. That was a relief.

“I guess the scanners were wrong…” muttered Fixit as he was about to leave when a noise came from the pod. Everyone was confused, particularly Jetstorm as he leaned toward the inside of the pod and looked down. A big gasp escaped from him as both Bee and Drift also looked at where Jetstorm is looking. Everyone else is staring.

“What’s wrong Lieutenant?” Strongarm asked urgently.

“Shh.” Bumblebee shushed quietly, signaling that everyone should lower their voice. A smile painted across his, Jetstorm, and Drift’s faceplates as each took small, yet not large, round objects inside the pod. It really looks like the three were… cradling?

“Bee, what did you find?” Russell whispered as he and Denny approached the cradlers, and as they approached, Denny couldn’t help but notice something that strongly resembled that humans do, especially to babies.

Drift and Bee carefully and slowly put Jetstorm down with the object he cradled, and both humans now saw what the bots had. In Jetstorm’s arms, is a velvet green with gold color, small, miniature version of a young Minicon. To further the proof, it opened its turquoise colored optics with little lashes.

Some silly fic skit abt everybot going nuts abt sparklings

Chapter one: Morning Interruptions

┆ ┆ ┆ ┆⋆┆ ┆ ┆ ┆⋆┆ ┆ ┆ ┆⋆┆ ┆ ┆ ┆⋆┆ ┆ ┆ ┆⋆┆ ┆ ┆ ┆⋆ 

The leftover shimmering of stars as the dark night sky had turned to a pale lavender gradient, the upcoming morning is here. The remnants of meteoroids flew by Denny’s scrapyard as their bright beautiful tails followed.

Especially one huge meteoroid that grew brighter and brighter as it flew over and crashed northwest of the scrapyard and into the nearby woods.

—--------------------------------------

In their little quarters somewhere in Denny’s scrapyard, it was particularly odd for Jetstorm, stirred as groggy optics fluttered. He could have sworn he heard a loud crash somewhere and glanced at Slipstream to see if he was also awakened by the noise. 

Slipstream is still asleep, but stirred as he too was awake by not the crash, but the activities outside their quarters. “What is going on?” croaked Slipstream as he rubbed his optics out of the sleepiness in them.

“I have no clue,” Jetstorm said as he jumped out of his makeshift and opened the intermodal container’s latch “but whatever the crash was also awakened them.”

The residents of the scrapyard slowly arrived at the Communications Center one by one as the chirps of various songbirds greet the warm summer air. Some members of the Bee Team yawned and stretched to draw the tiredness out, what in the world of Primes’ is going on?

“Grim,” Sideswipe yawned as he spoke to Grimlock as the dinobot arrived in the Center after him “maybe next time you could be careful with whatever you're doing.”

“It wasn’t me,” Grimlock said as he rubbed his optics to keep himself awake “I thought it was you or Strongarm doing something, I was asleep when that crash happened.”

“I was also asleep when the loud crash happened.” Came a grouchy Strongarm as she appeared behind the duo, optics ridden with a glare mixed with tiredness as she aggressively poked at Sideswipe’s chassis “I thought it was the punk doing dumb shenanigans to wake the scrapyard as a prank, like usual!”

“Was not!” Sideswipe scowled defendly as he returned the glare “I was in my quarters sleeping peacefully when that happened, I thought it was Grimlock.”

“Nope, wasn’t me.” Grimlock chimed.

Running to the Center, both Jetstorm and Slipstream met the others. “Did anyone hear the crash?” questioned Jetstorm as the giant trio acknowledged Drift’s minicons.

“Sure thing,” Grimlock said “it was really loud. What were you guys doing when that happened?”

“Both of us were asleep when the crash happened.” Jetstorm replied.

“And where were you guys too?” Slipstream said as he yawned.

“Asleep like the rest.” Strongarm answered, she too yawned.

“Same.” Sideswipe and Grimlock replied.

“Alright, what’s with the noise fellas.” A sleepy Bumblebee arrived with Drift, Denny, Fixit, and Russell in tow, with sleep written in their face as little bags under optics and eyes suggested.

“We heard a crash happened not long ago, Lieutenant.” Strongarm answered as she shook her helm to stay awake, it’s still early in her opinion. “I boldly assumed it was Sideswipe doing a prank, however, I found out that it wasn’t him or the others as they were asleep too.”

“And what were you guys doing when it happened?” Sideswipe yawned as he stretched.

“Like the rest, asleep.” Russell replied as the young human yawned.

“Denny, could it be possible if one of your antiques just fell off from somewhere?” Fixit glanced at Denny who was drifting back to sleep, only to snap awake.

“Huh, n-no. I always make sure nothing can go out of place and tighten stacked objects. Aside from crashing, I could have sworn I heard a loud roar overhead, like something from the sky before the crash.”

“Now do you mention it,” Bumblebee started as he think a bit of what Denny said “I do heard a roar, but what could possibly-”

A notification sounded off at the Center as Fixit made haste, clearly the blare had jump started their adrenaline. Now they had the energy unintentionally needed as Fixit madly typed down to see what the computer detected; “This is quite peculiar,” Fixit murmured as the Team drew closer.

��What do we got now, Fixit?” Bumblebee asked.

“And why so early.” muttered Sideswipe.

“The scanners detected Cybertronian technology at the northwest of the Scrapyard.” Fixit said as the computer projected the map of the Scrapyard, showing a dot at the northwest outside of the premises.

“So… whatever it is that caused the crash.” Bumblebee concluded.

“Exactly,” Fixit agreed as he read the diagnostics of the object in question “what interests me most is that the scanners also detected possible lifeforms in whatever served as their container.”

“Lifeforms? Do the scanners say what could possibly be Fixit?” Strongarm asked while glancing at the map.

“Not exactly,” the orange Minicon replied “looks like you guys had to retrieve it for further examination.”

“Alright team,” Bumblebee intoned triumphantly, like the many times before he and the rest transformed to their respective alt modes “Rev up and Roll out!”

—-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In the northwest of the woods, far, far, far up the huge hill he did sniff the dirt. Long pointed ears twitched at the slightest of noise, and yellow optics darted to every corner, Steeljaw was on the trail for his prize. He and his pack heard the crash some time ago and since tracked it to its site, now that he picked up a really faint smell, he will claim whatever it may be. If Thunderhoof and the rest weren’t so grouchy that the crash had stolen their ‘beauty’ sleep.

“Steeljaw, is this really necessary to drag the rest of us ta whatever that noise be.” Thunderhoof muttered at the Wolficon, tired optics seared at him on top of that.

At the mention of the noise, Steeljaw was upset that his needed rest was disrupted, needed sleep for planning and conquering Earth, but for whatever reason his spark commanded him to go to the source and trust himself. 

“You see dear brother,” Steeljaw spoke with charisma, paying no mind to explain the grumpy tractor moose as he entrapped the ex-boss with one servo around the shoulder plates “I get this ambitious feeling that the crash had brought something that is worth tracking.”

“And what does it even mean?” Clampdown nervously rejoined as to not upset his leader. The informant even shrank back a bit as Thunderhoof stared at him.

“An excellent question brother.” Unhanding Thunderhoof as Steeljaw, now speak to Clampdown regarding to his question “It means that whatever it was, we will use it for our goals of conquering this planet and make our Decepticon world paradise, a dream come true.”

“Oh…” the Crabicon recognized as Clampdown, slowly inched away from Steeljaw, chuckling nervously while Steeljaw confidently giggled; then to full blown laughter. 

Thunderhoof, Fracture, Underbite, and Quilfire had various reactions, but think the same when glancing one to another. The group collectively believe that the crash caused Steeljaw to be a bit… loose in the helm, to say the least.

The laughter ceased when Steeljaw’s ears perked up, signaling that the Wolficon detected whatever he heard. He heard something huge traversing through the woods they’re in, the roar of engines from vehicles and their tires crushing the dead vegetation. Steeljaw bared his sharp denta as he hissed at his Pack “Someone’s coming! Hide right now!”

The Pack wasted no time as they shifted to their alt modes and hit the gas to where they came from, much to Steeljaw’s frustration as he too transformed and followed suit while four vehicles arrived at their designation; not even the vehicles saw Steeljaw or his Pack leaving the area.

—----------------------------------------

“This is where the signal came from,” Bumblebee spoke to no one in particular as he and his team transformed to bipedal mode, some starting to search for the source “I want everyone to leave their commlinks on incase when you found the source or an emergency. Got it?”

“Got it!” The Team replied as everyone fanned out.

—-------------------------------------------------------

In a few minutes not far from the rendezvous, in the southmost part, Drift, Slipstream, and Jetstorm checked the underbrush and other signs. Everything seems normal, minus a bird that scared the living days out of Jetstorm, who checked in a bush where its nest is in. 

“Master Drift,” spoke Jetstorm as he eyed on Slipstream, trying his best to suppress his giggles from his scare, then focus on his teacher “what do you think of what is inside the object that Fixit mentioned? Could it be something… dangerous?” The dark colored minicon shivered at the thought.

“I believe it's not Jetstorm.” Drift calmly replied “It’s rather unlikely something-”

Without warning, as Drift was formulating an explanation to his student as his attention was diverted from him when he landed his foot to a deep hole in front of him. The hole itself wasn’t so deep, merely around 5-or-so feet, and during his short fall he landed first to a metal surface.

The Minicons wasted no time skidding next to the hole and gasped, from where their teacher felt on top is something that the scanners detected.

Clampdown🤝Waspinator

Being treated like an absolute joke on screen

[yes-i-write-fanfiction]

Hi! Thoughts on Shattered glass version of TF rid 2015 Decepticons?

-SG!Steeljaw is a revolutionary, standing up against oppressive autobot regime. He's a kind and stalwart mech. A little too uptight and serious a times, he truly only wants what's best for his team, whom he has come to view as family. Would die for any one of them, without hesitation.

-SG!Thunderhoof is a humble mech who thinks too little of himself. Despite his natural abilities as a leader, he doesn't really see himself as a as one, at least not in comparison to the likes of Megatron and Steeljaw. Very stubborn and refuses to ever give up.

SG!Fracture is an incredible honorable mech. While he is a bounty hunter, he's got a code of honor and morals that he refuses to abandon. He treats his opponents and targets with great respect, even SG!Drift, a bot who he's got a long and complicated history with.

SG!Clampdown might just be the most reckless mech there is. He never backs down, never hesitates to throw down, even if the odds are against him. Just a tad too aggressive and confrontational for his own good, Clampdown is however very loyal to his friends and would rather die than abandon them.

-SG!Saberhorn is a noble mech. He's got a high level of honor and while confident in his abilities, is very humble and gentle. A very real and down to earth person, Saberhorn enjoys meditation and contemplating philosophical questions.

SG!Glowstrike is very friendly and social. She loves to meet new people and make new friends. She's also very casual with everyone that she meets, treating everyone like a friend and like they are equals. A jovial and bubbly bot, she's always there to make you feel better.

SG!Kickback is a proud, slightly narcissistic bot. He enjoys talking about himself a little too much but that doesn't mean that he's a bad person. He truly cares about his friends and allies and since he's so great it's only obvious that he would aid them in whatever way possible.

He has befriended Terminus who has been smuggling out his writings. Terminus vanishes (saved by Necrobot) and Megatron is racked with guilt about taking his writings instead. He internalizes this later. Terminus was the one pushing for Megatron to be a center figure while Megatron was more for group/community involvement.

51st Cycle, 500

More Than Meets The Eye #9-11: Shadowplay | More Than Meets The Eye #37

“Iacon, 4th Cycle 501-Pre-War. A few cycles earlier, the word ‘Decepticon’ first appeared in connection to the samizdat writings credited to a certain miner from Tarn.

Has Constructicons and Combaticons and the deal with Soundwave in place. Megatron begins moving against the government.

Recruits Starscream and others.

Funeral for the cops.

Seekers attack Decimus’s “recognition of service”. Kidnap the Senator as part of the trap and the cops arrest them all.

Kaon take over. Prowl after seeing Sentinel fall makes executive decision to pullout forces and the Iacon backup turns into evac team.

Additional Notes (Exact Dates Uncertain):

Ratchet and Drift are born before Orion (a little after Megatron) and Megatron (5 million years ago)

Orion is born in Iacon

Rodimus is born half a million years after Megatron

Thunderclash knew Ratchet and helped him when he was studying. They both attended the Iaconian Academy of Science and Technology. Ratchet was attending medical school there and Orion Pax was there and they became friends

Prowl is brought online as a Cold Construct and serves in Petrex, a very prejudice town, where he learns how to get around rules. He eventually gets transferred to Iacon, around Rodion but not Orion's precinct. By the time of Croteus-12 he has transferred to Kaon under Sentinel directly, and seemingly fairly high up given his interactions, ability to give orders, and the presentations he gives.

Following Kaon, Zeta becomes Prime raising a New Senate and the Decepticons begin occupying more territory.

Dominus and Rewind leave Cybertron before war breaks out to pursue Luna-1.

Declaration Day presumably happens following Kaon being taken over and Sentinel being killed.
