Hymn of the Goddess

Lyrics below cut:

Obsessed with this take on Soundwave.

Text taken (slightly altered) from Black Cybertron by Tom Scioli andJohn Barber, printed in Transformers Vs GI Joe #10, reprinted in Vol. 3.

thank you!! I try my best <3

ohhh hohohho you have come to the right place anon. PREPARE FOR FIC RECS

First stop: my AO3 bookmarks -> click

Adventure focus / endgame romance:

Prime Time - G1 time travel, endgame Arcee/Springer/Hot Rod

Sleep Well, Little Star - adorable Hot Rod G1 backstory, no ships

Half Of What You Think Of Me - Roddy gets yeeted into Shattered Glass, has a bad time, you can pinpoint the exact moment Deadlock's eyes widen and he goes 'whoagh'

Ghosts of Cybertron - G1 adventure fic

Kingdom Hearts: Cybertron G1 crossover ft. Roddy & Galvatron (no ships but I remain hopeful for rodgalv)

Meet in the Middle - IDW driftrod, long slowburn

Cassett(icon) - Cassetticon Roddy (no ships)

how quickly the night turns to dawn - messy feral hotlock (complimentary)

The Echo Garden - you are probably familiar with this one if you are on my blog but if not or you are due for a reread here you go :) long slowburn tfp Soundwave/mtmte Rodimus.

more romance/ship focused but i'm still rec-ing them and you can't stop me:

Price of Peace - rodistar

Amanesis - megarod ft. empurata megatron

Coffee as a Metaphor for Other Things - humanformers megarod

Ride Me Down Easy - IF YOU ONLY READ ONE THING FROM THIS LIST READ THIS ONE. TRUST.

The Legacy of Nyon - The One Rodiclash Fic I Like Because It Actually Takes Roddy Seriously

submerse - gorgeous merformers rodgalv

Countervail - Galvatron goes to shout at Primus to give Roddy back damn it

Fics with just enough Roddy as a side character to keep me on the hook:

The Crown of Cybertron (BABY RODDY)

Ninth (he shows up i promise)

Hold Them Tight (jazzprowl)

Starpath (jazzprowl, mecha pilot Jazz AU, Roddy is also there)

Welcome! Everything is fine. (The Good Place crossover ft. a delightful Starscream)

(Yes most of the screenshots are very ugly haha. Older art style do be like that.)

⬇️“Alone against a planet full of aliens” Roddy is saving Blurr. He stole a whole spaceship from Kup and went 1 vs 99999 to save Blurr.

Actually I highly recommend reading that specific issue. It is really great even out of context. Transformers Marvel#132

⬇️And this one is from 2005 IDW >:) (the same one where Lost Light happens) Transformers Bumblebee #2

+ some G1. It really amuses me to see how big Rodimus Prime is haha. Look at him dragging Blurr around

Now to the most pretty looking part~

Blurr and Hot Rod have some sweet sweet shared screen time in Cyberverse. Which lasts. Can you imagine. FIVE minutes! Tremendous.

Although most of those five minutes they spent verbally sassing each other so. It has a lot more character than all of their interactions in IDW hehe

They are doing sickening things to my brain chemestry . im not inmune to the red/blue sentai yaoi

Here's the first piece I did for @tf-bigbang!

And Here's the second!

This cat... I can't imagine what he's thinking with that face

It's not everyday Megatron meets a bot who's not already aware of every wrong he's ever committed. It's not everyday he meets a bot who isn't terrified of him at first, but instead looks at him with awe and wonder.

You can't just reform your entire life/ideals and not go a little soft...

Though, it's important to note that Megatron still has a lot of relationships to repair. Not just with the autobots...
