Barbarian AU Where Hot Rod Is Being Courted/chased After By Multiple Mechs Like Thunderclash And Others.

Barbarian AU where Hot Rod is being courted/chased after by multiple mechs like Thunderclash and others. He refuses to consider any of them as he has his heart set on Soundwave, who is away on a long hunting/gathering mission with other mechs. He's been gone for weeks at this point and Hot Rod is being pressured to select a mate but he's holding out for Soundwave, hoping he comes back and claims him.

"Hot Rod I need you to skin this wild cyberbeast I've managed to catch."

He turned around to find someone showing off their catch wanting him to accept their courtship.

"Put it with the rest."

He pointed at a pile ignoring the dissapointed look on their face as he focused on the soup he was making.

"Hot Rod."

He sighed having been interrupted multiple times that day, as someone tried showing off in the hopes he'd accept their courtship.

"Yes."

"I have a gift for you."

He glanced over to see a cyberbird in their hands. He didn't even say anything and just pointed at the pile as he turned back to his work.

He placed some of the soup into a large bowl planning on taking it to the medbay where Ratchets patients were resting. Inside was important medicine that would help them recover. If only he could get there without being interrupted.

As soon as he thought that he was blocked by Thunderclash who tried talking to him. He mostly ignored him hoping he'd take the hint that he wasn't interested. However like usual he didn't and continued trying to impress him with his hunt.

When he pointed at the growing pile by the fire he didn't give him a rejected look like the others. Instead he took that as a challenge and started showing off more. It was annoying and he wished he'd leave him alone and take the hint.

Around him people were fawning over him and glaring at him for daring to have his attention. It was probably the reason Thunderclash didn't leave like the others. He had an entire crowd of people who'd follow him around and sing his praises.

With mating season just starting he was constantly being bothered by people who wanted to court him. It was exhausted especially when he's made it clear he wasn't interested. He had a feeling his sire had put some of them up to this, in his attempt to control his life.

Turning away from Thunderclash and his adoring fans. He went to the medbay and gave Ratchet the soup.

"What took you so long."

Ratchet grouched.

"People keep trying to impress me."

"You know they'd leave you alone if you picked someone already."

"I have but no one seems to listen."

"You know your sire doesn't want you leaving our tribe."

"It's my life not his."

"Hot Rod."

He left not wanting to hear it. He already had to hear it enough from his sire. Who insisted on finding him a match in their tribe. Even though he was in love with Soundwave and only wanted him.

He thought that was the end of it only to step out and be bothered some more.

It was so annoying and he practically had to chase them away. His sire must have seen because he was called to meet with him. Where he was lectured on his behavior. He tried to defend himself but his sire ignored him.

He basically talked over him the entire time demanding he mate with someone soon. He stormed out of there when he couldn't take his sire's criticism any more.

Going to his favorite spot he sighed relaxing now that he was away from the tribe. It was starting to get dark and he looked at the stars that were beginning to show.

He missed Soundwave and wished he was there. He'd been sent on a hunting mission and had been gone for a while now.

He didn't know when he'd return but he hoped it was soon. He didn't know how long he could hold out with his sire getting more irritated by the day.

He was worried his sire would Conjunx him to someone without his permission claiming that it was for his own good.

He sighed looking at the moon and wondering if Soundwave was also looking at the moon.

He'd promised to bond with him as soon as he got back and he'd promised to wait for him but it was the hardest thing he'd ever done. He missed him so much and he wished he was there.

They were always stronger as a team and he needed him now more than ever. He continued looking at the moon until he had no choice but to go back home unless he wanted his sire to send people to come find him.

"Please come home soon."

He whispered while walking back to his tribe.

Can we get a part ii to Drift and Ratchet trying to court Hot Rod but Perceptor is blocking them/trying to scare them off? I can see Hot Rod being exasperated because he genuinely loves the two and wants to be with them.

He found Hot Rod sobbing in his room and he rushed to see what was wrong.

"What happened? Are you okay?"

He checked him over for injuries while his bitty clung to him.

"Am I ugly?"

"What? No. Who told you that?"

He looked at his bitty in shock and then anger. His engine revved and he promised to kill whoever said that to his little one.

"No one said it to me but it has to be true. I thought Ratchet and Drift liked me but now they're avoiding me."

Hot Rod cried and he gave him a surprised look. Because he didn't think they'd give up so easily. He thought they would have put up more of a fight, instead of letting his bitty go.

He felt justified about pushing them away. It was for the best after all. They gave up on his bitty and weren't willing to fight for him. Which means they clearly didn't deserve him. In Nyon people fight for their potential mates. Even if they have to fight the entire functionalist guard.

If they couldn't fight for his sparkling they were unworthy of his love and he hoped Hot Rod could find someone better now that they were gone.

Even as he said that Hot Rods cries made him feel guilty for pushing them away. His bitty obviously loved them and was hurting right now.

He held him hoping that he'd be able to move on in time and realize that he could do so much better.

Hot Rod cried himself to sleep in his arms and he laid him in bed making sure he was comfortable. He then left his room and went to grab his favorite snacks and movie.

Along the way he stopped by Drift and Ratchets room. When the two of them saw him they immediately frowned.

"I hope you're happy."

"We did what you wanted and have stopped courting Hot Rod."

"I'm very happy because now Hot Rod can find someone better."

"What's your problem with us?"

Ratchet snapped clearly annoyed.

"You don't know Hot Rod. You act like you do but you don't. I see the way you two are with each other and I know my sparkling will only end up hurt. You two will always love each other more than Hot Rod."

"That's not true."

"Yes it is. Hot Rod will always feel like a third wheel. Whenever it comes to important matters or arguments it will always be you two against him."

"We can change."

He shook his head.

"The biggest reason I didn't think you two were worthy of my sparkling is because you gave up."

"You told us to leave him alone."

"You shouldn't have listened! In Nyon mates protect each other. They fight for each other and it doesn't matter who's in their way they will always fight for their mate but not you two. He deserves better and you two know it. Which is why I think you really stepped down because deep down you knew that Roddy could do so much better and you two were only holding him back."

He walked away leaving the two of them speechless as he went to pick up the snacks and a movie. When he got back Hot Rod was still curled up in a little ball asleep and he rubbed his back.

"Soon you'll get over them and then I'll help you find the perfect mate."

Roddy trying to tell Soundwave he’s sparked in a cute way but he fails each time.

Soundwave finds out on his own when he comes home to see Roddy asleep in berth with the sheets raised from the swell of his tanks.

Roddy wakes up all sleepy to soundwave kissing his tanks

"How was your day?"

Soundwave kissed his forehead and he talked about going shopping with Bee.

"I found this cute little toy. What do you think?"

He showed Soundwave the cute elephant plushie he'd gotten because he knows how much he likes elephants.

"I think it would be a cute toy for our sparkling."

Soundwave nodded looking the elephant plushie over.

"I'm sure any future sparklings of ours would love it."

He watched his Conjunx sit down at the kitchen table and finish some of his paperwork before dinner completely oblivious.

He sighed assuming Soundwave was tired from work and decided to bring it up later but he still didn't get it.

He tried again a few more times by showing him a sparkling blanket. Only for Soundwave to mistake it for a new towel.

He then tried again by showing him an energon bun in the oven which he still didn't get it.

He found himself getting frustrated because for someone so smart Soundwave could be oblivious sometimes.

He continued trying a few more times wanting to tell him the news in a cute way when he eventually gave up and decided to just tell him.

He waited for Soundwave to return home except he took longer than expected and he ended up falling asleep.

When Soundwave came home he was exhausted and walked into their bedroom to find Roddy already asleep.

He sighed and went to climb into bed when he noticed a small bump where Hot Rods belly was. He carefully felt it wondering if the blankets had gotten bunched together. When his optics widened in shock when he realized he was sparked.

He then thought about Hot Rods strange behavior the last few days realizing he was trying to tell him that he was sparked.

"I'm such an idiot."

He whispered climbing into bed he cuddled against his belly looking at it in amazement and awe because they were going to have a sparkling.

Hot Rod shifted and gave him a sleepy look.

"Soundwave?"

"You're sparked."

Hot Rod seemed to be more awake as he looked down at his hand on his belly.

"I've been trying to tell you."

"I'm sorry. I've been out of it the last few days and didn't even realize."

He kissed Hot Rod giving him an excited look.

"I can't wait to meet our little one."

Hot Rod cuddled against him and he rubbed his belly. Both of them were tired and quickly fell asleep but they had a lot to talk about the next day.

I would love to see a Part 2 of Hot Rod being a housekeeper! Does Soundwave try to woo him?

His cassettes watched in amusement as he stumbled around their new housekeeper embarrassing himself.

Hot Rod didn't seem to mind as he worked on cleaning their home just happy to have work.

Eventually he found his footing and managed to have a normal conversation with Soundwave. The two hit it off really well and it wasn't long before Soundwave was inviting him on dates.

Even with the war going on he still managed to find a way for the two of them to have a nice time. When he learned Hot Rod was homeless and living in a shelter he let him stay in their home.

Before Hot Rod had arrived Soundwave was always stressed and would never take time of himself. Which would lead to him getting sick and having migraines.

With Hot Rod around he'd take breaks to speak with him and seemed to be happier. Something that brought all of his cassetticons joy.

They all liked Hot Rod who was really nice and never treated them differently because they were a cassette or a mechanimal likes others.

They enjoyed being around him and would invite him to things like their weekly movie night. Where they'd find ways to make Soundwave and Hot Rod sit together.

The two of them looked so cute, all happy and in love. All of them wondered when they would make it official and made bets with each other on when and how it would happen.

At first they had a rough start which was his fault. Hot Rod was so beautiful especially his mind and he found it hard to focus when he was around. He was always distracted by his beauty and trying to dive into his mind.

Eventually he got used to Hot Rod and the two of them would talk while he worked. He enjoyed listening to Hot Rod speak and sometimes he'd bring up some great ideas.

He had a feeling that he'd been part of some kind of rebel group from the way he talked. It sounded like he had experience dealing with Functionalists.

Even with the war going on Hot Rod had hope. Something he'd been starting to lose. It was hard when all he saw was pain and destruction.

That's why he was shocked to learn that Hot Rod was living in a shelter after his home was destroyed. He immediately invited him into his own. Because by that point he knew his cassettes saw him as family and he couldn't imagine him living in a shelter. When he could do something about it.

The two of them hung out more now that Hot Rod lived with them. He knew the cassettes were pushing the two of them together. They'd always invite Hot Rod places and make sure they sat together.

He was still nervous not wanting to say the wrong thing and ruin everything. When he asked Hot Rod on a date he could have never imagined he'd say yes. He knew the reputation he had and was worried Hot Rod would think he didn't care for him.

Even with the war going on he managed to find some nice spots for them to go on a date. Hot Rod always seemed happy and it looked like their dates were a success.

He enjoyed spending time with Hot Rod and it felt like life was better and brighter ever since Hot Rod came into his life. He was happier and his cassettes were happier as well.

One day the cassetticons we're gone and the two of them were sitting together watching TV. He wrapped an arm around his shoulder and Hot Rod scooted closer.

One minute they were watching the movie and the next moment they were making out.

Hot Rod climbed into his lap and he couldn't resist. Not when he looked so perfect like that.

Hot Rod ended up bouncing in his lap. The two of them moaning as his spike pressed deep into his valve.

Hot Rod felt so good around him and he couldn't stop himself from coming inside of him. Not when his walls squeezed his spike so perfectly. Hot Rod gasped his whole body shaking as he overloaded.

The two of them cuddled afterwards with Hot Rod still sitting on his spike, letting them go a few more rounds until they were finally satisfied.

As fast as Hot Rod had come into his life he was suddenly gone. He'd woken up one day to find his room empty and a note left behind telling him that he was sorry and that he had to leave and get off world. He then thanked him for giving him the money to do so.

He felt blindsided as he read the letter over and over again wondering what he was missing. Hot Rod never gave any sign that he wanted to leave their planet or that he was saving up.

He always seemed happy there and he thought they'd build a life together. He thought Hot Rod loved him and that he wanted to be with him.

After that he fell into a depression. With Hot Rod gone it was like all the joy was sucked out of his life. He threw himself into his work refusing to let himself feel. He focused on the Decepticons and ignored his cassetticons worried looks. He was fine and this was for the best. He had work that needed to be done and Autobots that needed to be destroyed. He couldn't think about Hot Rod or how much he missed him.

I've been having writers block recently when it comes to my AO3 account and writing on there but your asks have helped a lot. I love all of your ideas and if you have any more send them to me.

Roddy typically taking care of others when fragging. He does the same with Soundwave while they’re on the lost light but he actually enjoys it.

They do this a few times with Roddy topping and doing all kinds of tricks for Soundwave.

Only one day Roddy can’t get himself to be what someone else needs and Soundwave shows him exactly what he really needed all this time

Soundwave had always known that Hot Rod was lying to himself. He always put on a front in order to please people ignoring how drained he'd be afterwards.

He watched as he walked away with someone going back to their room where he'd take care of them. Making sure they got to come. While he never did. It was obvious by the tension in his spoiler when he'd see him a few hours later going back to his room. The unsatisfied look on his face as he gave someone else what they needed and ignored his own pleasure.

He couldn't stand watching someone so beautiful and perfect hurt himself over and over again in order to please others.

He knew he needed to do something which is why he came up with a plan. He'd show Hot Rod what it was like to be taken care of and to stop rejecting himself.

He'd help him sink into subspace and take care of him the entire time. Helping him let go and showing him what a cute little sub he'll make. He'll show him how well he can please him without hurting himself. Tell him how perfect he was while his mind was in a happy fog letting him take control.

He started by hanging out with him more. He'd ask if he wanted to get energon and he'd listen as he talked.

He wanted this to be more than a fling. He wanted Hot Rod to be his and the only way to do that is to show that he wants him for more than just interfacing.

He loved bringing Roddy on dates and taking care of him. He'd watch as his optics got a little hazy and he became so sweet for him. He didn't know how anyone could mistake him for a dom.

He knew Rodimus wanted to ask him to interface. He seemed nervous and tense in a way he hasn't been since they first started hanging out.

He asked him what was wrong pretending he didn't know and Rodimus hesitated for a second giving him an embarrassed look before finally asking.

He looked so cute with a faint blush dusting his cheeks and he agreed unable to resist. Rodimus seemed to stumble over himself as he led him back to his room.

Immediately he tried to bully him in berth his movements clumsy as he tried to fight himself. He wrapped his arms around his waist and pulled him closer.

Rodimus looked up at him in surprise not used to people manhandling him which was such a shame.

"Let me take care of you. I know you will be so good for me."

Rodimus shivered and leaned against him. His optics going foggy. He scooped him up and carried him to his bed where he laid him down.

He then proceeded to take care of him showing Rodimus what he'd been missing. By the time they were done he'd come more times than they could remember.

He was deep in sub space and cuddling against him as he took care of him, making sure he drank energon and cleaning him off.

He was nice and relaxed letting him move him around without complaint. He was so perfect and he loved taking care of him.

"That was amazing."

Rodimus finally spoke and he kissed him.

"I'm glad you enjoyed it."

He tucked him into bed and climbed in as well.

"You did such a good job for me."

He praised and Roddy shivered cuddling again him. He wrapped his arms around him and stroked his spoiler watching as Rodimus fell asleep in his arms.

He kissed his forehead and fell asleep holding Rodimus close.
