There's a handful of fanfic with this basis already (my fav is one where the kiddos assume the bots are made by Hephaestus and they meet during the battle of Olympus ngl, fucks the bots up but the kids are like "idk why Heph made them Like That but like bud hurry up, crisis later zoom zoom now pls") but like, I think my favorite way to handle this that I also haven't seen ever would be in a reality where Unicron is earth. So the gods are fighting earth and then the bots roll up like "... Didn't Unicron have a female holoform?" "IDK but that's definitely Unicron or one of his kids my mech"

Also also, would this make OP be a demigod or a god? Would nectar and ambrosia work for ALL the bots, would it be considered really wimpy energon, or something else entirely unique to the earth gods? This is such a fascinating playground for the bots ESPECIALLY depending on which reality it's set in. Bayverse OP would HAAAAAATE that kids gotta fight but would also throw hands with them, G1 would feel Things about it but would help however he could, and I feel like Megs in some other realities would try and mentor these humans like "I will make sure you live to see the end to the best of my ability, Do Not Disappoint Me"

I WAS THINKING ABOUT THIS BEING A REALITY WHERE EARTH IS A DORMANT UNICRON YES YES

:3

Very funny that they assume the transformers were made by Hephaestus

In my mind, Optimus is at MOST a demigod, if not a situation a little closer to what was happening in the Egyptian pantheon books with the godlings (? Iicr what they were named??) where it was gods lightly possessing mortals. I personally see the Thirteen Primes as demigods, full stop, as more direct creations of Primus. (Though, I dabble in situations where they're completely mortal too)

In my mind, ambrosia is probably unique to the Earth gods, as Primus/Unicron and their stuff seems to have their own things going on (the various different types of energon) (I'm a little curious how dark energon might play with a human demigod or a monster differently than it would a mortal human or cybertronians)

But also, I've forgotten here, THE STUFF YOU'RE SUGGESTING WITH UNICRON'S HOLOFORM AND CHILDREN OF UNICRON, OO?👀👀👀????

Man, it's going to be such a realization for the human demigods we're following this time that, yes, not only are gods and monsters real and here on Earth, but alien are real too and they have their own alien gods. One of which just so happens to be the Earth's core :3
