Anon: "Can I get a Blitzwing SFW alphabet? I'd love to see your headcanons for him!" (rough quote, not actually sure what the OG thing said)

Warnings: Blitz has issues (shocker), mentions of murder, nightmares, children (eugh)

Affection- (how affectionate are they? How do they show it?)

How affectionate he is depends on his mood, and the same goes for how he shows it. He's always careful, though, because he doesn't want to hurt you. You're far too precious to him.

He will lick you. He will poke you. He will squish you gently. He will do all sorts of weird shit that he means with his whole spark. He will call you weird-ass petnames. He will cup you gently in his palms. He will sweet-talk you in botched German if you ever get him drunk enough.

Best friend- (How would they be as a best friend? How would it start?)

I'm gonna be so honest, it probably starts with you getting kidnapped or held hostage or something. He's surprised when you don't freak out as much as he thought you would, even when he switches faces, and it confuses the hell out of him.

He eventually seeks you out again for a proper conversation, and you two actually hit it off. (Well, as much as you can hit it off with an alien war criminal.) So he comes back again. And then again. And before you know it, you have his comm code in your phone and a selfie of you two as your lockscreen.

Over time, it'll develop into a proper friendship, and he'd do pretty much anything for you. Janice in accounting pissing you off? He'll squish her. Ex-partner stalking you? Squished. On your period, or just had a shitty day in general? Here's an entire gas station's worth of snacks. He cares so much, and he's terrible as saying it, but he tries to show you anyway.

Cuddles- (Do they like to cuddle? How do they cuddle?)

Again, it depends on his mood. Sometimes he's willing to curl up with you and make fun of a shitty movie, and other times he'd rather cackle maniacally atop a heap of smoking rubble beside you. As a general rule of thumb, though, he does like it. He enjoys feeling the warmth of you beside him, and he wants to have you there for the rest of time.

Cuddling with him is a bit of a wild ride. He will squirm around for five minutes getting comfy until you just grab him and make him sit still. Unless you're human, then you're fucked, but he won't be as wiggly. He doesn't want to squish you.

He likes being the big spoon, both because of his wings and because he likes being able to curl around you like a shield. He'll bury his face in the crook of your neck, his arms secure around you, and his warmth combined with the rumbling of his engines is always a sure-fire way to get you to sleep.

Domestic- (Do they want to settle down? How are they at cooking and cleaning?)

Sometimes, when he's feeling melancholic, he'll wonder about what your life together might have looked like on Cybertron, if the war has never happened. Would you live together? In Vos or Kaon? Would you have kids? Would you have gotten conjunxed? Would you still love him?

It's even worse if you're human. He can get really angsty if he's feeling low enough. What if he hurts you? Wouldn't you be happier with someone else? Someone human? He's a fucking madmech, why do you stay with him?

He could hurt you so easily, and it terrifies him.

But you're always there to remind him that you love him. He's not getting rid of you for a long time, and you'll drill it into his helm as much as it takes for it to stick.

...I think it goes without saying that you shouldn't let him near a kitchen. "Servo salad" yeah no thanks babe I'd rather stick with lettuce

He's also a bit of a hazard when it comes to cleaning.

Be wary handing him a feather duster, because his mood can and does change at the drop of a hat and he will cause mayhem.

He gets pissy at the dust particles, and he will try to eat your broom. Turning it into a game and putting some music on usually assures he won't get up to too much trouble, though.

Emotion- (Is it easy for them to express emotion in front of you?)

Short answer? No.

Long answer? It depends.

Some days he finds himself able to let the words flow like water, sweet nothings falling off his tongue easily. And other days his jaw is locked shut, the fear of losing you too strong to bear. Those are the days where he chooses instead to hold you close, to reassure himself that you're okay, that you're here beside him with no plan or intention of leaving him.

Fiancé- (How do they feel about commitment? How quickly would they want to get married?)

It'd take years for him to really, seriously consider it. But you're human, and your lifespan is so much shorter. He wants to give you the entire universe, but if that's not possible, then getting married is the next best thing.

If you're Cybertronian, then it takes even longer. He wants to court you, to do this right. He wants to take you out on dates and dance with you and show you things you've never seen. He wants to conjunx you properly, with a real ceremony, not on a backwater dirtball with too much water.

Either way, though, he's in it for the long haul. Past a certain point, he stops expecting you to leave and starts trusting that you won't.

Gentle- (how gentle are they, both physically and emotionally?)

He tries his best, but you still end up with accidental bumps and bruises. Each one makes his gut twist with an unpleasant feeling, another reminder that you shouldn't tolerate him, let alone love him. But love him you do, and so the bruises get ice and the scrapes get bandaids, and Blitzwing gets a kiss for being your brave hero. Which he, naturally, enjoys.

Emotionally, he's much worse. He's blunt and cold on some occasions, and manic and wild on others. But he tries. For you. He'll never tease you for crying, or mock you for your interests, or make fun of anything about you. He'll threaten anyone that does, and not even god can help them if they make you cry.

Hugs- (Do they like hugs? How often do they give them? What are their hugs like?)

Like many things, it depends on his mood. While he does like it, it's not all the time he wants one, and he won't ever ask for one. He'll just hover near you like an aloof cat that totally doesn't want pet until you get the hint and hug him.

And it's so worth it when you do. He's warm and gentle, and the thrumming of his spark is audible. Sometimes he'll pick you up and spin you around, giggling, others he'll grab you possessively. But he's always careful with you.

I love you- (How fast do they say the L-word?)

It takes him months, if not years. It's not for lack of wanting- he wants to, desperately, but he can't, won't, give the universe another person to take from him. He can't lose you. He can't.

It makes him feel awful when you say it and he can't bring himself to say it back, can't tell you how he feels. So he finds other ways. He brings you things, he holds you close, and he murmurs soft things to you when you're asleep. He adores you so, so much, and it's killing him not to say it.

It comes up eventually, and you're worried for him. Worried that he's feeling pressured. He's not. He just can't bring himself to paint that target on your back.

So you come up with a system. Three taps for three words, three taps for "I love you." His fingertips start to wear down from how often he does it, and he relishes in the warm fuzzy feeling he gets from seeing your face light up every time he does.

Jealousy- (How jealous do they get? What do they do when they're jealous?)

Oh, he's awful. He doesn't just get jealous, no, he fucking seethes with envy. How visible that is depends on his mood- he'll do anything from glaring viciously from a distance to grabbing you and walking off.

He'll loom beside you possessively, glaring down at them stonily, and he'll pull you in by the waist and drag you into a rough, possessive kiss, snarling his engines at them until they get the message. And if they don't, they'll get blasted to kingdom come. He might also just pick them up and throw them away from you.

Kisses- (What are their kisses like? Where do they kiss you? Where do they like to be kissed?)

His kisses, like all else, depend on his mood. Sometimes they'll be soft, slow, filled with so much love you could burst. Other times they're rough, aggressive, hands pulling you against him and his engines roaring. And sometimes he just fucking licks you and calls it good.

Little ones- (How are they with kids? Do they want any?

He did want kids, before the war. Before he became what he is now, he wanted so badly to be a sire. But now, he's terrified of hurting them, of doing irreparable damage, of failing them.

He's fantastic with kids, though. He's calm and gentle and passionate and silly and defensive above all else. He'd be a great parent if he ever got his head around it.

Morning- (How are mornings spent with them?)

Mornings with Blitzwing are slow. They have to be, because he refuses to let you up until you absolutely have to get up. He's a cuddlebug when he's tired, and he's almost certainly stronger then you are. Not that you really try to get up, either, he's warm and outside is cold. A few more minutes can't do any harm.

Night- (How are nights spent with them?)

Nights with him tend to be late ones. Staying up until the wee hours of the morning talking, laughing, joking. You're always the first to fall asleep; the soft purr of his engines and the thrumming of his spark are the sweetest lullaby you've ever heard.

Open- (When will they start revealing things about themselves? Do they say everything at once or wait awhile to reveal things slowly?)

It takes ages to crack him open. The key is patience- revealing things about himself will take a lot of trust, and prying will get you nowhere. He'll tell you when he tells you, and no sooner. He'll drop little things here and there, and then drop it all at once when he breaks down after a particularly bad nightmare.

Patience- (How easily angered are they?)

It's Blitzwing. His temper is shorter than Bumblebee.

But jokes aside, he doesn't really get angry at you. Not really. He gets annoyed, he yells, he stomps around in a huff, but he doesn't get angry. He will not hesitate to squish a bitch if they hurt you though, his limited amount of patience is reserved for you and you alone. He'd fight Megatron for you if he had to.

Quizzes- (How much would they remember about you? Do they remember every little detail you mention in passing, or do they kind of forget everything?)

He doesn't remember every little detail, but you won't catch him forgetting important shit. Birthday? Down pat. Anniversary? In the calendar. He keeps track of things. He writes things down. He doesn't want to forget.

Remember- (What is their favourite moment in the relationship?)

The first time you dragged him out to see the stars. You had to go miles out to avoid light pollution, but it was more than worth it. The stars were gorgeous, and your excitement was even better.

Security- (How protective are they? How do they protect you? How would they like to be protected?)

He is so protective. He can't, won't, lose you, not after everything else, and he needs to protect you. Be that from a collapsing building or a spider, he is there.

He'll take hit after hit if it means keeping you safe, he'd rip every single Autobot limb from fucking limb, he'd do anything to keep you safe. If you were ever hurt, badly hurt, he'd rip whoever did it into shreds and then blow the shreds to smithereens and then stomp the smithereens into tiny little bitty pieces.

He'd panic bad if you ever got hurt in a way he can't do something about- if a building collapsed on you or is you got in a wreck or you're just plain sick. He can't fix this with violence. He can't fix this, period.

He'd be touched and impressed if you stood up for him- especially because he was half-expecting you to do the opposite. Expecting the worst.

Even if you can't protect him physically, he'll love you even more if you yell at someone for his sake. I mean, he thinks it's hot when you yell either way, but especially when it's for him. Optimus Prime quakes in fear at the memory of your scolding.

Try- (How much effort would they put into dates, anniversaries, gifts, everyday tasks?)

He does genuinely try. He puts his all into everything he does- loving you included. He'll take you out flying, wherever you want to go. He would give you the moon and stars, all you have to do is ask. He adores you with everything he is, was, and will ever be.

Flight dates are common even if you're human, but they happen often if you've got a flight alt. Racing through clouds, spiralling lazily around one another, feeling the wind rushing over your wings. It's one of his favorite things, and he loves sharing it with you. Especially considering you're his favorite person.

Ugly- (What are some of their bad habits?)

He's very overprotective. He'll jump in even if you're nowhere needing help, and he tends to do things for you even if you're capable.

He's also got a bad habit of not letting something lie. If you ended on a disagreement, he'll keep poking at it until you either yell at him to stop or indulge him. Both things can be resolved with a stern discussion, but the overprotectiveness is just going to tone down, never disappear.

Vanity- (How concerned are they with their looks?

He truly could not care less. He makes sure he's clean enough and that's about it.

He will make sure to scrub down thoroughly if he's come into contact with something that could hurt you, though.

Whole- (Would they feel incomplete without you?)

Oh, absolutely. If you ever died, or left him, or even got separated from him for more than 24 consecutive hours, he'd be miserable. You're his life, his light, his everything. He needs you to survive. He can't imagine living without you anymore.

Xtra- (An extra headcanon about them)

This seems to be unpopular consensus, but I don't think Blitzwing is three personalities in one body or whatever. My personal hc is that since his processor split, each "face" has only been able to express a certain subset of emotions. Before the split, he was a manic, aggressive, snarky sonuvabitch and he's still that bot, just a little crazier. But the faces aren't separate bots. It's all Blitzwing up there.

Yuck- (What are some things they wouldn't like, either in general or in a partner?)

He doesn't like sweet things. Makes him sick.

Zzz- (What is a sleep habit of theirs?)

He tends to sprawl out like he's been shot, unless he's cuddling you, then you are not escaping until he decides to let you go.

He snores. Loudly. It's awful.

His engine fluctuates as he sleeps, like it breathes with him. It revs on inhale, and idles on exhale.

He wakes up incredibly dehydrated all the damn time due to the aforementioned snoring.
