Day 4: roleplay

Soundwave noticing Rodimus yawns more and recharges more often. He has less energy and sleeps in longer.

Soundwave is the first to notice and soon Drift is asking Rodimus whats wrong when he shows up to their hab after Rodimus is late to their amica bonding time.

Soundwave pieces it together when Rodimus rubs his tanks that’ve grown quite a bit

"Are you feeling alright?"

Rodimus looked up giving his mate a confused look.

"I feel fine. Why are you asking?"

"You seem tired lately."

He shrugged leaning against Soundwave as he looked over a datapad.

"Maybe."

"After you finish this why don't you get some rest?"

"Hmm."

Roddy nodded yawning as he finished the report he was working on and went to bed without complaint.

Soundwave thought that was the end of it. Except Rodimus looked as though he barely slept. Even though He'd just taken a nap. He was still tired and kept yawning as he moved around the kitchen.

He watched confused when Rodimus didn't pick his usual blend and instead chose his energon instead. Which Rodimus had told him in the past tasted terrible.

He was about to question him about it when Rodimus looked at the time. His optics widened as he panicked a little.

"I overslept and now I'm late."

He dashed out of their room barely able to say goodbye as he went to see his Amica for their usual movie night.

He tried dismissing the thought that something was wrong. He was being paranoid and Rodimus was fine. He probably had trouble sleeping or something.

Even as he thought that. He sent a quick message to Drift asking him to keep an optic out for his Conjunx.

He decided to clean up their apartment while he waited for Rodimus wondering if he was stressed and that's why he was so tired.

He thought about having them take a much needed vacation and began looking at a time when they could take a week off.

He was distracted by Drift sending him a message asking why Rodimus was so tired. He told him that he's been unusually tired for a while now and that he took a nap earlier that day.

Now that Drift was noticing it as well. He was sure something was wrong and thought about having Rodimus see Ratchet.

Rodimus ended up coming home a lot earlier than usual and looked drained. He'd immediately climbed into bed and fallen asleep.

He tried sleeping as well but he couldn't. Every time he tried he'd have nightmares about something being wrong with Rodimus.

He laid in bed watching Rodimus sleep and trying to reassure himself that he was mostly fine.

He wrapped his arms around Rodimus and pulled him closer. His hands brushed against his middle section and that's when he felt it. He froze looking at Rodimus in shock when he realized what was happening.

He kissed the back of his head and pulled him closer. Even though he was excited and wanted to ask Rodimus about it he didn't want to wake him especially when he needed the rest.

He forced himself to fall asleep planning on asking Rodimus about it first thing in the morning.

Deaf Rodimus

Dratchrod

The Lost Light had recently landed and the crew were exploring the nearby town while the ship was being refueled.

Drift and Ratchet held his hands as they walked through the busy streets taking everything in. They'd decided to use their time off to go on a date together and hang out.

They went to a nearby restaurant that Drift had looked up and thought the fuel looked good.

The three of them sat down chatting and having fun together. Ratchet was sharing something First Aid told him and Drift was trying to get them to try the different fuels he'd ordered. Talking about how good they were.

He watched his two future Conjunx admiring how cute they were and falling more in love with them when there was an explosion.

He found himself thrown to the ground and knocked unconscious. When he awoke it was to Drift and Ratchet pulling him away from the roaring fire. Ratchet was looking him over and Drift was saying something he couldn't hear.

His optics widened when he realized his hearing aids had been broken. He tried to pretend like nothing was wrong as he read Drift and Ratchets lips trying to reassure them he was fine and answering every question.

Both of them still seemed concerned somehow able to tell that something was wrong. He just needed to get back to his room and put on his replacement hearing aids without them noticing.

He knew if they found out they wouldn't want him anymore. Cybertron had a lot of backwards views and some of them involved those with disabilities.

He continued reassuring his future mates that he was fine. Normally he would have been happy with their concern knowing they were doing it out of love. Now however he found himself getting upset with them because they refused to leave him alone.

Ratchet was trying to drag him to the medbay and was about to pick him up and carry him. His reassurances were ignored with Ratchet wanting to do more thorough testing. Something he couldn't allow until after he'd replaced his hearing aids knowing Ratchet would figure it out if he did a thorough exam.

When he refused to listen Ratchet and Drift picked him up and carried him to the medbay. He struggled against them still telling them he was fine. Drift held him against his chest as Ratchet looked him over.

He didn't know what Drift was saying because he was behind him and decided to not respond pretending like he was sulking when really he was terrified.

Ratchet seemed to be getting annoyed with him which made him feel guilty that he was stressing him out. He knew his mate was worried about him and just wanted to help but he felt ashamed of his disability and didn't want them to find out.

He was terrified he'd lose the best things that have ever happened to him.

His audial began to spark and he could see Ratchet looking alarmed as he checked the area. He froze in horror as he pulled his damaged hearing aide out.

A look of realization and then understanding flashed though Ratchets face and he found himself flinching in shame.

He didn't know what Drift was saying or doing which only made him more on edge.

He could see Ratchet talking to Drift telling him that he was deaf. He felt tears sting his optics and he pushed himself out of Drifts grasp and ran back to his room.

He locked the door and put on his hearing aids. Refusing to listen to Drift and Ratchet knocking on his door as he curled into a little ball sobbing knowing his relationship was over.

Late happy birthday greetings, Ocean! Hope you had a good celebration and got to enjoy yourself. Wanted to share this Soundrod scenario with you as my gift:

Nyon's insurgency against Sentinel Prime's government is an open secret at this point and it makes sense to the Decepticons to recruit some of their members to their cause. The insurgents are already trained in urban warfare and combat, making them valuable additions to their cause.

Soundwave is assigned a scouting + vetting mission to look for the insurgents’ best and brightest, and that’s how he comes across Hot Rod, a beloved scout for the insurgency and one of the most beautiful mechs Soundwave has ever seen. It isn’t long before he’s trying to recruit Hot Rod to the Decepticon Cause and during their long discussions, they end up falling into berth and having amazing interface with each other.

Sadly, the next day Soundwave is suddenly recalled from Nyon to help Megatron in an attack against Autobots so he has to leave, not even having enough time to tell Hot Rod what’s happening or leave his .comm to his dismay. Hot Rod is never far from Soundwave’s mind and when he hears Nyon has burned to the ground? He mourns Hot Rod, almost like he’s his Conjunx.

Time passes and Soundwave gets the shock of his life when he’s in a neutral city and bumps into Hot Rod — Who is carrying a bitlet who takes after him in appearance, basically a little mini version of him if not for the blue optics the bitty inherited from Hot Rod. Turns out, Hot Rod was sparked up by Soundwave and is now raising the bitty all by his lonesome, beliving he was ditched by Soundwave so he’s relunctant to trust Soundwave’s apologies even if Soundwave promises to look after the two of them and make things right.

"Soundwave?"

He paused. Glancing at his leader who walked over handing him a datapad.

"I have a mission for you."

He looked at the datapad reading about Nyonian rebels stopping Sentinels mechs from destroying a hospital, that helped mechs from all stations.

"I want you to go there and recruit some of those rebels. They would be a valuable asset to the Decepticons."

He nodded watching a video of them fight. They were already trained in urban warfare and combat which let them sneak through the city with ease.

While the Decepticons had a lot of heavy hitters they didn't have the skill or gracefulness to sneak through a city.

"I want you to bring me their best and brightest. Not only will they fight for us but they will also teach my army how to fight like them. Which will give us an advantage in city's."

He nodded understanding how important this mission was. He left immediately and went to the city of Nyon where he surveyed the city waiting for rebel activity.

It was late at night when he saw a group of rebels stealing food and medicine from sentinels army. Wanting to get on their good side he decided to help out showing off his own impressive skills.

The rebels were surprised and also grateful because he allowed them to steal more food.

Once they were safe from Sentinels mechs he was surprised when they began distributing the fuel to Nyons citizens. He'd assumed they'd taken it for themselves.

Although Kaon was in better shape than Nyon no one would have ever done something like that. In his city it was everyone for themselves and people would rather steal from each other than the government officials who've taken all the fuel.

In Nyon it was different with everyone helping each other no matter how bad it got.

One of the rebels pulled him aside after the others left and thanked him for helping. He'd shrugged saying that he wanted to help fight back against the injustice that's taking place.

The rebel had invited him to their next meeting the following evening Before taking off with the others leaving him alone to think it over.

Although he didn't get the rebels name he'd shown some impressive skills and he knew Megatron would be intrigued. He decided to keep a close optic on that one.

When he went to the rebels meeting he noticed the same mech from before. He decided to stand next to him as assignments were passed out.

He ended up getting an assignment with the same mech. Where they worked together to gain vital information on Sentinel's troops movements.

At one point they ran into a guard on accident who almost shot the rebel until he stopped them.

"Thanks."

After they'd competed their mission the mech finally introduced himself.

"My name is Hot Rod."

It was a beautiful name which was fitting because after following the rebel, he watched as he took off his disguise and revealed a beautiful mech underneath.

After that the two of them became closer as they were assigned more missions together. He also talked with some of the other rebels learning which ones were the most skilled.

They were sitting in Hot Rods apartment watching a movie or so he thought.

"Why'd you help us that night?"

"You were doing something most people won't. You were fighting against Sentinel and that's something I want to do. I want a better Cybertron."

"That's not the only reason."

He sighed because Hot Rod was smarter than he liked to act.

"I was sent here to recruit Nyonian rebels for the Decepticon cause."

Hot Rod looked at him in surprise and then shrugged.

"Fine, I'll hear you out. Although I don't know how many people will join. Most of us don't want to leave our home."

He could tell Hot Rod was one of them and he worked on trying to convince him. The two often had debates and it was during one of tho times that they ended up sleeping together.

Hot Rod had invited him to his apartment and the two of them had been deep in debate. There had been an electric tension in the air as the two of them got closer. He didn't know who kissed first but suddenly they were kissing.

He remembered scooping Hot Rod into his arms and taking him to bed where the two interfaced until they were both too exhausted to continue.

They cuddled together afterwards just talking about random things. His arms were wrapped around Hot Rod who was laying on his chest. Both of them fell asleep together and remained that way for the next few hours.

Thay was until Megatron urgently called him. He picked up still half asleep until Megatron told him the Decepticons were under attack and they desperately needed him. He looked down at Hot Rod who was still asleep.

He didn't have time to wake him before he had to leave and he was already out of the city before he realized he didn't leave a note.

He cursed his luck and promised that he'd go back to Nyon soon and make it up to him. He never wanted to leave him like that, but the Decepticons needed him.

After stopping the Autobots attack he wanted to return to Nyon. But there was so much that needed to be done and Megatron needed him there.

Hot Rod was always on his mind and he found his mind wandering always thinking about the Nyonian and wondering how he was doing.

He always planned on going back to him until the worst day of his life. He found out Nyon had been destroyed and after hearing the news he ended up collapsing from shock. His mind racing with all sorts of possibilities and he blamed himself for his death. He should have never left him behind. He should have gone back for him and he should have made Hot Rod come with him. Now he would never see him again and all he could do was live in regret, wondering if there was more he could have done.

Losing Hot Rod destroyed him and after learning about the Autobots complacency in the matter he was determined to destroy them and threw himself into his work.

Time passed and a few years later he found himself in a neutral city investigating the corrupt leaders of that city, who were making deals with Autobots.

He was walking along a busy street corner when he noticed a sparkling crying. He looked around wondering where his creators were and went to check on the sparkling and make sure he was okay.

He crouched down in front of the sparkling and asked.

"Are you lost? Where are your creators?"

The sparkling nodded giving him a sad look.

"I'll help you look for them."

The sparkling took his hand and they walked along the street when the sparkling suddenly shouted.

"Carrier!"

He watched as the sparkling ran to Hot Rod who looked like he was in distress over his missing sparkling.

He watched as the two hugged each other and that's when he noticed for the first time. He'd been so distracted trying to help him he didn't even realize the sparkling looked exactly like him. Except for his big blue optics that looked so much like his carriers.

When Hot Rod noticed him it was like time froze and then he was walking away from him. Having a million questions he chased after him not wanting Hot Rod to get away again. Especially after he thought the Nyonian was dead.

Hot Rod led him back to his home and had his sparkling go inside and play. He then turned to him with a hurt look and he flinched knowing he deserved it for leaving him.

He knew Hot Rod didn't trust him but he begged the Nyonian to let him be in his sparklings life. He knew what he did was wrong and he promised to spend every day of his life making it up to him.

Hot Rod still didn't trust him but he also didn't want to deny his sparkling a sire.

"Fine but if you do anything to hurt him I want you gone and I don't want you to come back."

He nodded and Hot Rod finally introduced him to their sparkling.

part 3 of hidden frame au? rodimus and perceptor leave behind the lost light and travel through the stars, trying to find a safe place to stay. during their journey they come across soundwave, out on a personal vacation from earth and sanctuary, and he offers to help them out.

soundwave is outraged over how rodimus has been treated for simply carrying life, which he finds beautiful, and he does what he can to help them find a new place to call home. over time rodimus and soundwave fall in love, with soundwave offering to be the sire so the bitty has a complete family.

They didn't realize at the time both of them relieved they'd managed to escape. But now warnings were popping up all over the place.

"What's happening?"

The ship shuddered making a loud screeching sound and Perceptor turned to him.

"Go to the stasis chambers!"

"What about you?"

"I'll be fine I'm going to try and land our ship."

"Then I'm staying."

He went to sit next to Perceptor, almost falling when the ship jerked again.

"No. You're sparked. If we crash you'll be safer in a stasis chamber then out here."

"Then you should come with me."

"Someone needs to land the ship."

"Then I'm staying."

"Rodimus you are sparked which means you need to think about the sparkling. Just like how I'm thinking about you."

He felt tears in his optics knowing he was right. With a hand on his belly he forced himself towards the stasis pods.

Climbing inside he felt it activate just as they entered atmosphere.

Soundwave who'd been in the area enjoying his desperately needed vacation noticed something strange. He watched as a ship fell from the sky and crashed into a nearby field.

He ran over when he realized it was Cybertronian in design. The door was jammed shut and he had to force it open. Once inside he went to the pilots seat where he found a familiar Autobot.

Perceptor laid across the console and was unconscious but mostly okay. He went to pull him out of the wreck when he smelled something that made him tense.

His head snapped over and he found himself following the scent. His spark beat rapidly in his chest because someone on the ship was sparked and he could only hope they were okay.

He followed the smell to a room that had stasis pods inside. Looking around he found Rodimus inside one and unconscious. His optics widened in shock when he realized he was a tank carrier because he thought they'd been exterminated a long time ago. He couldn't remember the last time he'd seen one and when he did they were being executed.

He tried to open the stasis pod and found that it was jammed. Unable to open automatically he had to force it open.

Rodimus fell forward and he easily caught him and checked for damages. Relieved when he was mostly unharmed except for a few dents and scraped paint. He searched the rest of the ship and didn't find anyone else.

Realizing there was no sire onboard he felt angry when he realized they'd likely abandoned him. He thought it was disgusting that someone could abandon their mate and sparkling.

He took Rodimus and Perceptor to his ship. Deciding to end his vacation early and go back home, so the two could get proper medical attention.

Noticing Perceptor waking up. He turned towards the scientist who glared at him while trying to protect Rodimus.

"I'm not going to hurt either of you."

He reassured.

"Where are we?"

"You two crash landed nearby. I found you and I'm bringing you somewhere where you can get proper medical care."

"We're fine."

Perceptor tried to grab Rodimus and he stopped him.

"No you're not and Rodimus is sparked. He and the sparkling need to be looked at."

Perceptor tensed looking nervous and he had a sinking suspicion on why their ship crashed.

"I won't hurt him I promise."

Perceptor gave him a skeptical look but so far he hasn't done anything to hurt them.

"You'll be safe at the compound."

"We're Autobots and your compound is full of Decepticons."

"Autobots have joined us. You are not the only ones who have been dissatisfied on Cybertron."

He could see the Autobot give him a surprised look before he quickly tried to hide it.

"Fine but I'll be watching you and the moment something goes wrong we're out of there."

"Of course."

Perceptor got up and went to check on Rodimus while he took the ship back to the compound he led. When they got there some of his high command gave him curious looks.

"Back from your vacation already?"

"You're supposed to be gone longer."

One of them accused.

"You need a break Soundwave you know what the medic said."

"There was an emergency. I found a crashed ship with two Autobots one of them is sparked."

Immediately everyone snapped into action and a medic was called. They took Rodimus and Perceptor to the medbay where they were both looked over.

Rodimus was fine. His body was still unconscious from the stasis pod. Which had knocked him deeper unconscious when the ship crashed to protect him.

Perceptor was fine besides his arm being injured and hovered around Rodimus, waiting for him to wake up and wearily watching the people around him.

It was obvious to everyone what happened and they gave the two of them space.

He stayed as well watching over the two of them and making sure they were safe. He knew no one would hurt them but he just wanted to make sure.

Inside he was fuming with rage and if he ever met the sires he'd punch them in the face and then attack the rest of the Lost Light. He knew Megatron had fallen but he didn't realize how far.

Staying hidden in the shadows he continued watching the two mechs waiting for Rodimus to wake up. Watching him sleep he decided to help Rodimus anyway he could.

Rodimus and his sparkling would be safe there. He would do everything in his power to make sure they felt safe and welcomed. He didn't deserve to go through this and he never wanted him to experience the pain his crew and the sires of his sparkling put him through ever again.

Merformers in the storyline of Roddy and Soundwave having finally met each other and became mates after Roddy was forced to carry his clutch alone.

Roddy finally has the clutch and Soundwave is very protective of his pups, growling and hissing at anyone who comes close. Only Ratchet is allowed around them to ensure they're healthy but he still gets a hiss or two, because Soundwave is a good mate who will do anything for his tired mate and their beautiful litter.

When Soundwave induced labor it had been quite a shock and he'd looked at the other mer frantically feeling unprepared.

The people who worked at the facility were also freaking out and trying to find a way to help him. However Soundwave kept hissing and snapping at them getting more aggressive every time he cried out in pain.

The mer was obviously worried they were going to hurt his mate and take him away.

He found himself clinging to Soundwave who brought him to his nest. It wasn't perfect and even in pain he felt ashamed thinking it wasn't good enough for his family.

His mate reassured him that it was perfect. Both of them distracted when he cried out in pain feeling the pup leave his gestation chamber.

He felt tears in his optics as he struggled. Birthing fluids flooded the area and he whined.

Soundwave tried to reassure him the entire time glaring and warning the workers to stay away. He wasn't leaving Hot Rod's side ever again.

His slit spasmed and he knew it wouldn't be long before his pups were born.

Ratchet having enough of the chaos came over and threatened to sedate Soundwave which would cause him to miss his pups being born.

Soundwave had stubbornly held him and even hissed at Ratchet but let him do his work.

Ratchet was careful as he swam inside their tank. He knew at any moment Soundwave could snap and try to kill him for hurting his mate.

He checked him over and knew the pups were ready to come out. Hot Rod screamed and began to push causing the pups head to poke out. He directed him where he could but at this point it was all instinct that helped Hot Rod push.

He ended up having five pups who were greedily drinking his milk as he laid there exhausted. Soundwave held his mate close and glared at him to leave now that the pups were out. Not wanting to stick around he climbed out and documented what happened.

Hot Rod lay barely awake with Soundwave cleaning him and scooting their pups closer making sure they were warm and cozy.

He pressed against his mate breathing in his scent and happy he was there to help him because he didn't know what he'd do without him.

The two mers cuddled together with Soundwave protectively watching over his family while Hot Rod fell asleep with their pups.
