Just some cute optirod languishing in the wips folder that's going nowhere, I release it into the wild

It was some big fancy event, the actualities of which didn't really matter to Hot Rod, just that they were hiring extra temp help for the day, as in were actually paying wages, and there was the additional opportunity to steal everything you could fit in your subspace and get away with, so why not apply?

He was good at interviews; being an entertainer had meant, first and foremost, being a friendly, smiling chameleon that was whatever the person who would be paying you wanted you to be, and Hot Rod had smiled and nodded his way through to an 'accepted' ping in his inbox. His current identity was a near blank slate, and definitely had the skills to bring energon from the kitchen and simper over noble aftheads and not make a single complaint when they inevitably grabbed at him. No sir, he'd done this song and dance before.

[SOME TIME LATER]

“You aren't one of the regular staff,” Optimus Prime appears out of nowhere behind Hot Rod's shoulder to say: “do you mind if I sit here for a while?”

“Um,” Hot Rod says, holding his tray in front of him like a shield as he turns around. Yep, that's Optimus Prime, big and red and blue and startlingly handsome, up close.

It wasn't an order. But this is the Prime, and Hot Rod doesn't want any extra attention on him tonight that'll get people asking questions like 'where did all our cutlery go,' or 'did anyone actually see the little red and yellow one doing his job,' and annoying the Prime himself by denying him seemed like a great way to attract unwanted attention on a night he wanted to be invisible.

“Sure,” he says, backing up a little to give them some room between them. Optimus Prime is big, and/or Hot Rod is smaller than average, his head only coming up to the Prime's windshield chest. That he is not staring at. No sir. He just happens to be optic-level with it. “It's, uh, I've gotta be out there, so-” he makes to move past, holding his tray aloft as proof of the work he definitely intends to do, but the Prime holds one big hand out, blocking him.

“No need,” he says, and with any other mech this size bottling him in alarm sirens would be blaring, but there's something disarming about him that has Hot Rod shrugging and moving to sit on the window ledge of the little alcove. “I'll ensure your time is compensated. Ah! I'll have the borovan, if you don't mind.” Instead of getting handsy with him before hustling him off out of sight to the nearest berth, which is about what Hot Rod expects from most nobles he runs into in his shitty temp jobs, Optimus delicately plucks one of the cubes from Hot Rod's tray and then slides down the wall to sit, his shoulders just about level with Hot Rod's aimlessly moving feet. The Prime takes a draught of his chosen beverage, then cranes his head to look up at him.

“My apologies, I haven't even asked your name.”

Hot Rod opens his mouth, ready with the fake name he's been using since leaving Nyon, but what comes out is: “Hot Rod.” He blinks in surprise. The Prime blinks back at him, then smiles, easy to tell even with the protective facemask across his mouth.

[WOW WRITING SURE IS A THING HUH]

In the end, Hot Rod didn't deliver a single cube of fancy-aft energon to a single grabby-hands noblemch afthead. Instead, he woke next morning fully sober – his system burned through fuel fast, and had left him sitting at a reasonable thirty-five percent, not bad.

And then he registered that he was on top of Optimus Prime, sprawled out and fast asleep, his soft ex-vents the only sound in the room until Hot Rod broke out of his frozen stupor and yelped and scrambled backwards off him, tumbling to the floor.

Prime's chestplates were open. His spark was visible, glowing beautiful white, and oh slag had they -? No, Hot Rod's memory was crystal clear, thanks to his stupid frame's complete inability to get and stay drunk. No, they hadn't. He picked himself back up, unable to stop staring.

They hadn't fragged, and they definitely hadn't spark-bonded. So why...?

He jumped as Optimus groaned and shifted. The Prime threw the back of his hand over his optics, visibly winced, then moved to sit up.

“Ah...?” He asked, blinking in confusion at the sight of his own open sparkchamber. “Oh, hello, Hot Rod. You're still here.”

“Yeah.” Hot Rod said, wishing he'd fled the room instead of hanging around like an idiot. “We didn't – I didn't – it was like that when I woke up a couple seconds ago,” came out in a rush, Hot Rod flapping a hand to indicate the glowing spark. “I promise, I promise I didn't do anything!”

“No – no, don't worry,” Optimus said, putting his palms up in a peace gesture. “Strange. I'll visit the medbay, I think. But do you know, I think I was looking for someone last night? And I found you.” He smiled as his chest finally closed back up, concealing the light within. “I would-” Here Prime became suddenly bashful, looking away as he stood up. “I would like you to stay, Hot Rod, if it is at all possible.”

“Um,” Hot Rod said, current events having rapidly gotten away from him. “What's the pay rate?”

---

“A quick scan, if you don't mind, Ratchet. And this is Hot Rod, he'll be my assistant from now on.”

“Right.” A medic pattered over, barely glancing at Optimus before critically eyeing Hot Rod, who shrank back against the Prime's large thigh from the intense gaze. “Does Prowl need to do a background check on your new assistant? Does he know you have a new assistant?”

“Well -” Optimus hesitated only for a moment as Ratchet brandished the handheld scanner, then brightened and looked towards Hot Rod. “You passed the interview, didn't you?”

“Sure did,” Hot Rod said nervously. Under a fake name and no actual background. He was gonna get kicked out. The cushy job of a lifetime, the Prime apparently being doo-lally over him, and he was gonna blow it.

“There you are, then.” Optimus beamed like he'd solved intergalactic peace as the scanner beeped and Ratchet looked over the results.

“You're fine,” the medic announced. “Looks like there's some...heightened Matrix activity happening, but unless you want me to pull the thing out, which I'd be happy to, by the way, you probably want a priest for that.”

Optimus 'hmm'd while Hot Rod blinked. The Matrix? Like the actual Matrix of Leadership? He'd scrambled too quickly off of Prime's chest that morning to actually see if it was in there or not. Guess he had an answer. “Thank you Ratchet. I suppose we should finalise everything with Prowl, and then I'll bring Hot Rod back for his first check-in. Sound good?”

“'Sound good',” Ratchet repeated with a roll of his optics. “You vanish for the entire party, then show up next morning with one of the temp hires hanging around your thighs. It doesn't take much to put two and two together.”

“Oh – no! We didn't do anything – improper,” Optimus stammered. “But – as you said – heightened Matrix activity? That makes sense. I think it was – searching. Reaching out. All I did was follow.”

And I found you, Hot Rod remembered.

“Well -” Ratchet shrugged. “Get him vetted, then get him back in here. When was the last time you saw a proper medic, kid?”

“They had one at-” he started to say defensively on automatic, then shut his mouth. He wasn't about to defend the slaggin' House that had been the first one to show up at the Hot Spot to scoop up any suitable sparks for their business. He wasn't even sure Splitscreen was a qualified medic. Ratchet raised an optic ridge. Hot Rod didn't continue, staring down at the floor instead. He found his hand reaching for Optimus almost of its own accord, and the Prime took it gently.

“Right,” Optimus said decisively. “Prowl can be a bit difficult sometimes. Please don't think too badly of him, Hot Rod, he doesn't like it when surprises like this happen, but he does mean well. Let's go see him now.” A gentle tug, and Hot Rod willingly went, away from Ratchet's judging optics.

Hello! I love your AU so much, I have a question, do you plan to develop more couples in the future? Apart from Dpax and Megatronus/Prima, is there any other pairing? Maybe not develop it as such but it exists or is mentioned? I also wonder if Sentinel/Zeta fall into this couple category? Since it seems Zeta does have feelings for Sentinel but does Sentinel know it? or he just ignore it? Does he plan to take advantage of those feelings? Sentinel might think that having a Prime in love with him might be beneficial.

There will always be background couples, the number will increase the more I learn about TF ex: I didn’t even like ZetaSen when I made the AU. Right now you can expect: Wavewave, BDKO, SkyStar, ZetaSen, RodOp, and there are 3 more but that’s a bit spoilery for next comics <<< note some of them are background ships and might not be delved in

Sentinel is fully aware of Zeta’s affection for him, he takes advantage while hating it. To Sentinel, Zeta constantly reminds him (albeit without malice) of his time as a lowly student instead of a fellow Prime he worked his ass off to become. Instead of talking it out with Zeta, Sentinel continues to play as a perfectly happy and content companion while holding it in as a grudge toward him

I've been working on my D&D world for 6 years at this point and it's so fun to review my notes because my memory is so bad. I'll be like "oh shit Rodop is the leader of the Dragon's Claw? I didn't know that. That changes everything" <guy who invented all of those things

Kretisches Kaffeetagebuch: auf der Halbinsel Rodopou

Der Plan war, hier einige besondere Orte zu besuchen, die Abseits der üblichen Touristenströme liegen. Denn im Gegensatz zu heute war die Gegend hier von der Antike bis zur Zeit der Venezianer besiedelt. Meine Recherche ergab, dass es hier – in etwa dort, wo heute der Menies Beach liegt, ein Hafen gewesen sein muss. Wir nehmen die Nationalstraße von Kissamos bis kurz vor Kolimvari. Dann geht es…

Hey so some days ago you asked about Hot Rod/Rodimus and you might know this already but in the IDW comics Roddy lived in Nyon, which was ran by (admittedly a very corrupt) zeta prime so that could be something to keep in mind for the apprentice au?

As for shipping Optimus and Rodimus… Im a big RodOp fan (again because of IDW) and my heart would give out from joy at even any vague references to the ship

That’s all for this message except that I love your art and your AU and it’s been eating through my brain how amazing it is!! Your art is like eating candy!!

I admittedly know nothing in the comic, I’m shipping them purely of vibes and remembering that I’m an artist that can draw anything does wonderful things lmao. I was surprised there was like 0 content for them?? I guess I’ll just feed myself

I apologize beforehand if they won’t be as you imagine since it’s in a TFO AU
