Rodimus Giving His New Sparks A Bath When Megatron Finally Finds Him.

Rodimus giving his new sparks a bath when Megatron finally finds him.

He carefully sat down in the water. Wincing slightly in pain from just giving emergence.

His sparkling was cuddled against him as he carefully began to wash him. His little one just laid in his arms barely able to keep his optics opened. As he used a small rag to wipe him down while humming a lullaby he'd heard long ago.

When his little one was washed he continued to hold him while washing himself. Opening his chest plates he winced as he gently washed his sensitive pouches.

Hearing a loud bang he froze immediately pulling his sparkling close who began to cry.

"Shh it's okay."

He reached into his subspace and pulled out his weapon just in time for the door to open. He stared in shock when he saw Megatron who looked stunned.

Feeling embarrassed he quickly covered his pouches and kept his sparkling close. Who had now fallen silent and with what little strength he had clung to his carrier for comfort.

"Hot Rod? You had a sparkling?"

The mech fell to his knees looking between him and their sparkling in awe.

He shifted feeling uncomfortable and uncertain. He never expected Megatron to be here. He thought they had a meaningless fling and that was it. When he found out he was sparked he never bothered to tell Megatron because he knew he wouldn't be interested. He was busy being in charge of the Decepticons and wouldn't have time for a sparkling.

He also didn't want his little one to grow up in a war and knew that if anyone found out who the sire was his sparkling would be in danger. He thought he'd been careful and yet here Megatron was.

"Why are you here?"

"I came to find you. I thought the Autobots had taken you."

Megatron glanced at their sparkling.

"Can I hold our little one... Please."

He pulled his sparkling closer feeling exposed and panicking slightly. Megatron must have realized something was wrong because he grabbed a towel and wrapped it around him. He then helped him stand. Holding his sparkling against his chest he was lead to his bedroom.

Megatron helped him sit on his bed. Noticing him wince from the pain he gave him a worried look which he dismissed.

"I'm fine just sore."

Megatron nodded and helped take care of him and his sparkling. It was surprising and he found himself crying. Megatron wrapped his arms around him and tried to soothe him while he cried.

"I'm sorry I don't know what's wrong with me."

"You've just gone into emergence. You need to rest they'll be time for everything else later."

He nodded feeling exhausted as Megatron carefully tucked him in. Looking at his sleeping sparkling he let Megatron hold their little one. Watching the way he carefully held him as he stared down at their sparkling in awe.

He smiled slightly as he watched the two saving the memory for later. He fell asleep. Relaxing now that his body knew he was safe and that their sparkling would be taken care of.

Can we get a part 3 to the glory hole au? I'm so excited to see Hot Rod's reaction to Soundwave tracking him down just because of his legs.

He walked through town in disguise just in case someone might recognize him. He knew it was unlikely but there were other neutrals besides Hot Rod here. Who'd managed to escape and he didn't want to draw attention to this planet.

As long as the war didn't reach there Hot Rod was safe.

He could hear commotion coming from nearby and he turned down the street to see what was happening. He found a group of Autobots arguing with the owner of the store demanding a discount because they were there to protect him.

Eventually they were forced to leave with a huff and he followed after them because there weren't supposed to be any Autobots on this planet.

Sneaking around he learned they were planning on setting up a base there, for the planets resources. Which means it wouldn't be long before the Decepticons came there along with the war.

He needed to convince Hot Rod to get out of there and soon. He went to his work hoping to see him, but was informed that he wasn't working that day.

He debated going to his home because Hot Rod wanted space to make a decision.

He decided to hold off a little longer until the Decepticons came. Hopefully Hot Rod will have made a decision by then.

If he didn't want to join the Decepticons that was fine. But he'd at least have to leave this planet. He didn't want Hot Rod or their sparkling getting hurt.

Later that night he was asleep when his comm went off. He opened his optics and looked around. Grabbing it he answered still half asleep when he heard Hot Rod crying on the other end sounding scared. He immediately sat up looking at his comm worriedly.

"Hot Rod are you okay? Did something happen?"

"Someone broke in."

He felt his spark quicken as he ran to Hot Rods home.

"Where are you? Are you safe?"

"No I'm hiding in a closet and I can hear them."

"Do you know what they want"

"Me and the sparkling. I'm so stupid."

"You're not stupid."

"I should have told you. The other day I was at work and these Autobots came in. They seemed really interested in me carrying. I think they want me to become an Autobot and force me to become some kind of broodmare."

Hot Rods voice shook sounding terrified.

"Don't worry I'm coming."

He got there as fast as he could. Hot Rod was still on the other line when he busted down the door. The Autobots seemed surprised to see him as he attacked.

"Soundwave!"

He rushed up stairs to find one of them holding Hot Rod who was struggling to free himself.

"So the sparkling is yours?"

Hot Rod trembled looking terrified. His hands covered his belly as the Autobot smirked at him.

"Drop your weapon or I'll kill them both."

"Soundwave!"

Hot Rod cried in fear and the Autobot jerked him backwards. He dropped his weapon and the Autobot grinned. Before they could stab Hot Rod. He'd already pulled out another weapon and shot them.

Hot Rod ran towards him and he wrapped his arms around him. He cried clinging to him as he put a hand on his belly worried about his sparkling.

"It's okay, I've got you."

He took him back to where he was staying and helped cleaned him off, when he noticed energon had gotten onto him.

"I'd like to join you."

He looked at him in surprise.

"Are you sure?"

Hot Rod nodded.

"You can protect our little one, keep them safe. I don't want something like that ever happening again. The only reason things didn't... Turn out worse."

Hot Rod rubbed his belly soothingly.

"Is because you were there."

"I won't let them come near you ever again."

"I know."

The two cuddled together and Hot Rod quickly fell asleep. He held him feeling his spark spin in his chest. Reminding him that he was alive and that he'd managed to stop them in time.

Fairy Tale AU with Soundrod! Soundwave being told of a beautiful mech placed under an enchanted sleep and, curious, he goes to the castle where the mech (Hot Rod) slumbers. He ends up kissing Hot Rod and breaking the curse with True Love's First Kiss but the credit goes to another mech (Getaway?) instead.

Hot Rod ends up betrothed to the other mech, even though he feels attracted to Soundwave for reasons he can't explain yet. Soundwave is jealous of the fact he can't marry Hot Rod but wants Hot Rod to be happy, at the end of the day, so he still says nothing. Only time he speaks up is when he realizes Hot Rod is being hurt by the other mech and comes to his aid, and ends up proving he's the one who awoke Hot Rod somehow.

There were once two kingdoms. The kingdom of Iacon which was ruled by Optimus Prime and the kingdom of Kaon which was ruled by Megatron. The two kingdoms lived mostly in peace until one day a curse was placed on Optimus son.

His name was Hot Rod and he was the most beautiful mech in all the land. One day he was cursed when someone placed him in an enchanted sleep. Where the only way for him to wake was by being kissed by his true love.

Everyone immediately blamed the kingdom of Kaon. Believing Megatron had ordered the curse to be placed on Hot Rod. In retaliation the two kingdoms went to war.

His sire sent out a call to all his people asking them to come and help their prince. With the promise that Hot Rod would marry whoever woke him.

Autobots from all across the land came to the castle eager to see if they were the ones who could break the curse. But none were worthy. Every day more and more people came only to leave dissapointed.

As time went on Optimus began to worry that Hot Rod would be stuck forever.

He easily moved through the crowd while disguised as a guard. With so many people coming to the castle now was the perfect time to learn the Autobots plans.

He snuck through the gate with the rest of the crowd and followed them inside. With everyone distracted by the idea of kissing the prince he broke away from the crowd and began looking around.

Mostly hiding in the shadows he found himself searching each room. He didn't know how long he was there but after collecting some vital information. He walked towards the main entrance where he'd come through.

Noticing the gates were closed he realized he'd stayed too long. Hearing footsteps approach he quickly hid.

Looking around he needed to find a place to lay low so no one got suspicious. He wouldn't be able to escape until morning. When he could blend in with tomorrow's crowd all eager for a chance to become royalty.

Moving through the halls he could hear Optimus and his head guard coming his way. Without looking he entered the first room he found which happened to be Hot Rods.

He froze staring at the beautiful prince who was laying in his bed. His hands together and on his chest and his lips plush and ready to be kissed.

He stepped foward. Spark racing as he looked down at the prince. He should have killed him. He knows it's what his father would have wanted. Even though they didn't curse the prince Megatron still wanted to hurt Optimus and killing his son was the best way to do that.

Instead of drawing his dagger and slitting his throat. He found himself leaning down and kissing the prince.

He immediately felt a weird tingling sensation from his lips to the rest of his body. The air seemed to shift as magic filled the air.

"What are you doing!?"

He jumped looking over in surprise when he saw a guard.

"You're not supposed to be in here."

Realizing his cover was blown he shoved the guard to the side and ran out ignoring his shouts to stop.

He ran through the castle trying to find a way to escape through the maze of hallways. He had just turned the corner when he felt something hit him hard.

He fell backwards looking up in confusion to see Lord Optimus and his head guard looking down at him. Ironhide glared having punched him in the face.

He felt disoriented as he was grabbed and forced to his feet, which made the room swim. Optimus pushed past them looking worried about his son. While he was dragged to the dungeon and locked up after his identity was revealed.

Outside he could hear people cheering and celebrating. Confused he moved closer to the bars and listened to the guards talk.

"Prince Hot Rod is awake."

"Who woke him?"

"Getaway. After he caught Soundwave trying to hurt our prince. He checked him over for injuries and so enchanted by his beauty he leaned down and kissed him."

He backed up having heard enough. His mind was racing as he listened to the others celebrate.

He thought about the tingling sensation he'd felt when kissing Hot Rod and wondered if he was the one who woke him.

He looked around trying to find a way to escape. Hot Rod should be marrying him instead, not Getaway. He was angry that he'd taken credit for what he did and leave him to rot in a jail cell.

He fantasized about punching Getaway in the face and taking Hot Rod for himself. The idea kept him going as the guards treated him terribly often taunting him and refusing him food.

Finally he managed to break out of his cell and escape the dungeon he'd been trapped inside.

He stole the guards uniform and disguised himself as one of them. Sneaking back into the palace he made sure to be more careful. Not wanting to get caught this time.

He'd just made it to Hot Rods door when he heard him inside talking to his mechs in waiting. Hearing his voice for the first time he felt a jolt go through his spine and he went to reveal himself when he listened to what he was saying.

He froze with his audial pressed against the door feeling his spark sink. Even though Hot Rod was his true love he was still an Autobot. Both their parents would never accept their union. No matter how much he wanted to reveal himself and take Hot Rod for himself.

He knew their relationship would never work out. Hot Rod was an Autobot and he was a Decepticon. He'd be better off marrying Getaway.

With a heavy spark he forced himself to leave. He went back to Kaon and forced himself to forget about Hot Rod.

His sire who'd been worrying ever since he was captured embraced him. Relieved that he was mostly unharmed.

Listening to his sire talk battle strategy he found it hard to focus as he continued to think about Hot Rod despite himself.

He tried to focus on other things in the hopes he'd forget about Hot Rod. He buried himself in his work hoping to distract himself and it seemed to be working. He managed to ignore the pull on his spark begging him to go back and take him for himself.

Then one day he overheard people gossiping about Hot Rods bonding which was tomorrow. He'd stiffened immediately going to his office which he trashed in a fit of rage.

He couldn't stand the idea of Hot Rod being bonded to someone else and decided to go see him.

He knew it was risky but he needed to see him one last time before he was Getaways forever.

Going to the city of Iacon was a lot harder this time around. With the bonding taking place tomorrow they didn't want any Decepticons to ruin it.

He ended up having to go through the woods while disguised as a hunter living in the woods. He wore a cloak that hid his face and made his way to the palace trying to think of a way inside.

He was distracted when he heard beautiful singing coming from nearby. Unable to resist he found himself following the voice until he was led to Hot Rod. He was sitting on a log singing a haunting melody filled with mourning. Which he thought was odd for someone about to be bonded.

He found himself moving closer. Wanting to be near the prince, when he stepped on something that startled Hot Rod. He quickly turned around in surprise and wiped the tears from his optics.

He looked at him in shock taking in the marks on his body. He immediately became furious demanding to know who hurt him and already planning vengeance .

"Who did this to you?"

His engine growled and Hot Rod gave him a confused look.

"This... It's nothing."

He quickly denied hiding his face.

"Was it Getaway?"

He looked at him in surprise.

"How did...?"

"You can't bond to him. Not when he hurts you."

"I don't have a choice. He's my one true love."

Hot Rod looked like he was about to cry when he said that and he knew he had to do something.

"That's not true."

"What?"

"I was there. Getaway didn't kiss you I did."

He revealed himself and Hot Rod gasped taking a step back he almost fell until he caught him.

"I don't understand. Why are you here? How are you my true love?"

"I know you have no reason to believe me especially because our people are at war but give me a chance to prove it to you."

Hot Rod looked unsure until he finally relented.

"Okay prove it to me."

He looked into Hot Rods optics that looked at him with hope. He really hoped he was right not wanting to crush Hot Rods dreams that he might be free of that monster.

Leaning in he kissed him and everything suddenly felt right. The two clung to each other as they made out feeling that same tingling sensation.

It was amazing and kissing Hot Rod felt like coming home. When he pulled away he didn't go far both of them occasionally kissing each other.

"Come with me."

He held out his hand and Hot Rod hesitated for a moment. He glanced back in the direction of his palace and then took his hand.

"Okay."

He kissed him again and then took him away back to Kaon where he announced that he would be marrying Hot Rod and if anyone had any complaints they could shove it up their aft.

Megamin ready to conjunx Rodimus after months of courting, but too late, they see Ratchet and Drift with Roddy in their arms

(My dratchrod heart must heal after all the angst I read 😭😭)

PS: I love what you do, and take recovery time from your surgery :)

They'd been courting Rodimus for a few months now. Wanting him to know how special he was. Despite all his confidence Rodimus could be self conscious at times believing he was unworthy of love and that no one would ever want him.

They didn't know who made him believe that but if they ever found them it wouldn't be good.

When they first decided to court Rodimus. They both wanted to do it right and make sure Rodimus knew how serious they were. Which is why they decided to learn more about Nyons customs.

Although it wasn't easy with the destruction of Nyon, much of the cities culture was lost but Minimus managed to find a book about Nyon courting rituals.

Food was a big part of courting ritual's. The people didn't have a lot but if you wanted to show someone you were interested in them you would have a meal with them. Another courting ritual that involved food was sharing. You would share food with the person you are interested in.

They made sure to invite Rodimus to lunch with them and have meals with him where they were share food.

Rodimus oftentimes brought home cooked meals which were always delicious but made them feel bad because they weren't very good cooks and their energon was usually bland and came straight from a dispenser.

Rodimus never complained though he seemed to be enjoying their company which was good. The two of them would talk for hours wanting to learn his interests so they could surprise him with gifts.

That was another part of Nyonian culture. The gift didn't have to be big or extravagant it could be simple and small. All that mattered was that the person recieving the gift felt special.

Which is why they wanted it to be personal. Megatron would write him poetry which was so beautiful he may have shed a few tears reading it.

He also gifted Roddy art supplies knowing how much he liked to draw.

Part of Nyonian culture was physical touch. Brushing hands, hugging, sitting close were all important. The two of them were a little awkward about touching Rodimus so much but they eventually got used to it.

They'd sit on either side with their legs brushing together. When Rodimus was in the captains suit Megatron would put a hand on his shoulder.

During shifts their hands would brush together and they'd sit next to each other in meetings.

Rodimus seemed to be responding well and they decided to ask him if he wanted to become their Conjunx.

Going to Swerves they both froze in shock when they saw Rodimus in between Drift and Ratchet. The three were snuggled together and feeding each other as they talked.

Rodimus had the happiest smile they'd ever seen and looked like he was in love.

The two watched realizing they were too late. While they'd been courting Roddy it seems Ratchet and Drift had been doing the same.

They watched as Drifts hands wrapped around Rodimus waist with envy. The way Roddy leaned in to it letting Ratchet feed him.

When a new song played Rodimus optics lit up with excitement and he pulled the two towards the dance floor. Ratchet complained a little about being too old but still joined them. The three of them danced together with Drift and Ratchets hands sliding all over his body as they pressed close.

Rodimus blushed and followed them out of Swerves and back to their room where they spent the night.

Although they were both upset they had lost Rodimus. They were happy he had found someone who loved him.

I remember you wrote about the glory hole where Hot Rod tried to earn a ticket to another planet, can we have a part 2?

(Thanks!!)

I already did part 2 and 3.

Roddy having sparkling brain with a bitty on his nozzle and another in the tank, answers the door forgetting he’s exposed.

Dratchrod here.

The two rush to cover him and he’s crying because he’s so embarrassed.

He needs a break.

He’s been doing paperwork and taking care of the sparkling at night and during the day against Drift and Ratchets many many protests because of new carrier anxiety, thinking he should make things easier for them since he doesn’t look good anymore after gaining so much weight and still having post sparkling frame while adding weight from the new bitty he carriers. And because he thinks they won’t want him anymore since he’s sporadically an emotional mess ever since carrying.

Poor baby needs some TLC and they happily give it to him.

He sighed feeling exhausted but he couldn't sleep. Not when his sparkling was crying because he was hungry. He picked his little one up and let him feed from his pouches. Walking around his apartment he tried to clean up wanting Drift and Ratchet to return to a clean home.

Hearing a knock on the door he went to answer it not thinking. Drift and Ratchet looked at him in surprise and quickly covered him.

He gave them a confused look until he realized his pouches were exposed. Embarrassed and exhausted he found himself crying which made his sparkling cry.

Drift and Ratchet rushed to help which made him feel guilty because they both had long shifts and now they were having to deal with this.

He felt like a horrible carrier and began to cry more. Ignoring his mates he brushed them aside promising to be better as he soothed his sparkling.

They tried talking to him and he went to their bedroom where he shut the door and locked it. He felt the sparkling in his belly move around and shift into an uncomfortable position.

He rubbed his belly feeling guilty for upsetting both his little one's. Outside the door Ratchet and Drift were trying to talk to him but he told them that he needed space.

Eventually they left and he sighed curling into a ball. He was so tired and struggled to stay awake.

Looking up he saw himself in the mirror and immediately looked away in disgust. He needed to be better and stop having these outbursts. Otherwise they were going to leave him.

His body was changed and was no longer the attractive speedster body his mates used to know. He felt ugly and he knew it was only a matter of time before they left him.

He didn't know how long he sat in that room holding his sleeping sparkling when there was another knock on the door.

Before he could say anything it opened revealing a concerned Drift and Ratchet which only made him feel worse.

"Rodimus are you okay?"

He sobbed and his mates held him.

"It's okay we've got you."

"Get some rest."

Ratchet leaned him back and he shook his head.

"No I have to take care of our little one. You two have been working all day and need a break."

"When was the last time you've had a break?"

"What?"

"Whenever the sparkling wakes up in the middle of the night you insist on going to him when one of us could."

"I don't want him disrupting your sleep. Besides I don't mind I can work on paperwork during that time."

"But you're not sleeping in the day. You're still taking care of our sparkling."

He shrugged wrapping his arms around himself.

"It's my job."

"It's our job as well."

"We love you Roddy which is why we can't keep watching you do this to yourself."

Drift pulled him close and he cuddled against his side.

"Get some rest we'll watch over the sparkling for you."

Ratchet nodded.

"You're carrying and should be pampered."

Ratchet rubbed his tank and Drift pulled the blanket over him. He wanted to complain or say they were wrong but he was so tired and exhaustion crept up on him.

Feeling his mates next to him he ended up falling asleep. Once they were sure he wouldn't wake up they came up with a plan to help him. Starting with getting him into therapy because he was obviously suffering from post spark depression.

Both of them promised to do a better job taking care of him and making sure he didn't feel like he had to do everything on his own.
