AHHH OFC HUN! Ty for my first request <3
Bayverse! Optimus reacting to reader coming out as trans!
This may be a bit rushed so sorry! I also didn’t know if you wanted headcanons or a story so I did both.
We all know Optimus is extremely open minded.
I mean, he’s the leader of the autobots, it would be strange if he wasn’t open minded!
So when you told him that you were trans, he listened to everything you had to say.
When you were done explaining everything, he asked a few questions like “how did you figure it out?” And “what are your pronouns now?”
And after he gets the questions out, he’s completely excepting!
He immediately starts using your preferred name and pronouns.
And if anybody misgenders you? OHHHHH MAN.
He tells the rest of the bots (with your permission) about it, so that they can know what to call you and your pronouns.
When you start to transition he’s helping you all the way, whatever you need.
And if you feel body dysmorphia? Don’t worry, he’s right there!
Hes Overall the most accepting bot around.
You were nervous. Extremely nervous. You had told your entire family about you being trans, and honestly, everybody was pretty much accepting! But your number one worry was telling your second family about you being trans.
Your second family being the autobots.
But you knew them, and you knew that if anybody was gonna accept you, it was going to be them. Specifically Optimus.
So there you stood in front of the prime, messing with your sweater sleeves, stuttering uncontrollably trying to figure out the right words.
“Ok, uhm, ok so basically….basically I’m trans. I, uh, I’m a man, and I want to feel more like a man. It would be…be great if you could like, uhm, use (preferred name) instead of my other one…and use he/him pronouns…did I explain that right? I don’t think I expla-“
“I understand. Fully.” You looked up at Optimus with a slight look of shock on your face. Optimus stared down at you with a gentle smile and poked you with a single metal digit. “You will always be accepted by me. And all the other autobots on base (preferred name). Never forget that.” You felt a gentle smile and a pang of relief build up inside of your body, and quickly nodded your head. “Ok, cool. Cool cool coooool.” “I just have one question…” Optimus put down his hand and you quickly climbed onto it, sitting down criss cross as he raised his hand up, got up, and started walking around base. “How did you choose your name?” He asked, curiosity building up in his voice. “Well actually…”
