#androidformers au

(A/N: Keeping this in line with the androidformers au I have written up, I changed the prompt a bit, and will only be filling this for Rodimus and Bee, since the reader had met Optimus as an android through Ratchet.)

Android Optimus/Android Bee Info

~

Idw Rodimus:

Rodimus(RM1500) remembers being on the run for doing something he would forever regret, and then passing out in a back-alley bleeding thirium, so when he awoke in a comfy pink poke-a-dotted bed, he was clearly confused

When he walks downstairs and is greeted by a welcoming human, it takes everything in his will power to not gun it out the door, but then he remembers the previous night when he used a shiv to remove his LED and figures they see him as a human

The weeks Rodimus stays with you have given you both time to unknowling become friends, and the android finds himself sometimes forgetting what he truly is till an activity such as eating comes about

When Rodimus accidentally brakes a vase and is left frozen in fright, ready to be shouted at or worse, beaten, he’s thrown for a completely loop when you wave it off, claiming accidents happen and to come “help a friend out” with a kind smile while handing him the dust pan

It was the first time you, or anyone, had called him friend, and it leaves him laying in bed that night, terrified of what could happen if you realized that he wasn’t human, but an android

The next week he’s left thinking of these frighting fears, but chooses to push them away by occupying his time with goofing off and finding every method he can to make you laugh and have a good time

Those good times are quickly put to an end when you have an anti android family member come over with their dog, who also happens to not like androids and can sniff one out from a mile away

The dog quickly gets onto Rodimus and when you try to stop the non behaved pet from running him down, the android quickly steps in the way to take the bite, wires, and thirium being shown to the world

Your family member quickly recognizes him as an android who had been shown on the news station for having allegedy set his home and owners on fire, and quickly calls the police

Rodimus is mortified but suddenly and very quickly pulled to the back of your house, where he’s pushed out the door and turns around expecting to see nothing but peer hatred on your face

Instead, he sees your eyes full of sadness and fear for him, putting something in his hand and urgently telling him to go, that you’ll see each other again, and Rodimus runs just as he had before he met you, only this time wondering how long had you known

 Tfa Bumblebee:

Bumblebee(BE1400) and his pal Bulkhead(BH1500) had just made it out of the country and into a new city when they finally found a place to take rest

Unknown to them that place just so happened to be your grandmothers backyard shed, and they would have been more terrified of being caught had they not already taken out their LED’s

Bee had wanted to leave after the first night that your grandmother had let them stay, but Bulk’s insistency that they should rest up and come up with a plan had him staying longer; Bulk sometimes teasing him that the reason he actually stays is because of you, but the android denies it up and down that you have anything to do with his decision in things

Either way, Bumblbee can’t deny that the kindness you give him makes him feel something he hadn’t felt before; it wasn’t like the kindness your grandmother had, there was something else there, something comforting and had been missing from the moment he had been programmed on

Eventually, time passes, and the idea of coming up with a plan is no longer on either androids minds, as they’ve found a home with your grandmother and you, spending each passing day as humans and feeling right at home

For Bee, this long time spent with your household of two, he’s found himself a new best friend in you, while his other bf can see the trouble brewing in the smaller of androids minds

When asking what could be troubling him, though Bulk has a pretty good idea of what, his suspicions are confirmed when Bee confesses that he fears what might happen if your grandmother, or even worse, you, discovered the truth

Those fears become reality when you stumble upon the two messing around with hair color mods, and the room goes deathly silent with a vice gripped tension

You were hoping to surprise them with some gifts, and in your excitement had forgotten to knock, but when the two go crashing through your window to make a hasty, fright filled escape, you shout for them to stop and something in Bumblebee actually causes the speedster android to halt

Bulk doesn’t get the chance to grab his friend and run when you come rushing out, an expression also full of fright but for the fear of losing your friends, and the two are shocked still when you confess you already knew

Bumblebee is quick filled with so many questions and emotions, some that are completely new, and he starts to berade you with inquiries about how long or what could have given them away when you hold up your hand for pause

You promise to answer everything after getting Bee’s arm fixed, who hadn’t noticed had been ripped during the great window escape and now had wires sticking out of, but first you state you’d like them to meet a certain android doctor friend of yours

(A/N: Changed this up so that it better fit my androidformer au.)

~

Overlord was what one would consider a very damaged android. No android should be the way he is, modified to an extreme that disconnected him from others. He did not have the familiarity that other androids had to appeal and be approachable to humans. He was taken apart and put back together on repeat, each time with a new modification to better suit him to the cause his old leader was once so devoted to. Now that that cause was lost, did that he mean he wanted to be fixed? Of course not, so then why did he keep you around?

You were just another human, sure one that knew their way around an android and all its inner workings, but just another human nonetheless. Perhaps you’d forcibly fix some of Overlords wounds after returning from, well, you’d rather not think about what it was he’d just come from considering the amount of thirium he’d return caked in that did not belong to him. Perhaps he kept you for entertainment reasons? If so, what would those be? All you ever did, was sit around in your home now turned prison, some days feeling as though you’re wasting away, and others hopelessly staring out the attic window. It wasn’t like you couldn’t try to escape, this was your house after all, but something smart within you kept you from doing so. The hybrid, monstrosity of an android had cut any and all communication to the outside world, and had basically fortified any windows or doors to only open at his technological will. Even if you did somehow manage to find a way out, you doubt you’d be free for very long, and trying to imagine the consequences once recaptured never seemed to quite fit his horrid capabilities.

You pull your eyes from the tiny, old glass window, looking towards the wall adjacent to you and all of the scratched marks of the days you’ve been imprisoned in your own home. Hearing the sounds of heavy footsteps make their way up the stairs, your attention darted to the door, waiting with bated breath. The door opened to Overlord, the enormous android having to duck to get through the entrance. He looked to you from where he stood, the light of the hall casting a halo glow around him, like some kind of ominous entity.

“I’m leaving. Trepan will be arriving shortly to keep watch, and is also bringing you food.”, he spoke, voice slightly hinted with giddiness to whatever he would be taking care of, and his lips spread in a not so friendly smile.

Oh how much you wished you could punch those stupidly huge lips of his. Knock it right off his face and into the trash where they belonged.

Overlord kept his eyes on you, waiting for you to say something, only for you to look back out the window and pull your legs in closer for safety. His smile fell, a deep scowl taking its place, LED flashing red, and he glared into your back, no doubt the intensity of it searing right through. While thankful you had not tried to leave, though that would provide him with much amusement, your distant behavior drove him mad, and he hated it, but not for the reasons you might think. It wasn’t due to disrespect, in fact, he wished you would show some form of defiance towards him, if only to give him a good laugh. No, he hated it because he wanted you to talk to him. An aching pain would form in his thirium pump every time you looked away and said nothing, and he hated that it was there. He hated that he cared about you not interacting with him. You were nothing but a tool to have around in case he were injured, a tool that could easily be replaced. So why did your refusal to say even just an “Okay”, bother him so much?

The attic door slamming behind you resulted in a startled jump, and the release of streaming tears and choked sobs you had been trying so desperately to hold back. Stumbling up from the window sill, you hobbled over to the marked wall, etching in another tick mark.

Another day. 

Another day you wish you hadn’t had such a kind heart and taken in the damaged android from the side of the road.

An AU where the transformers characters are all androids, like from DBH, and the reader is a human that finds them or is brought them and after fixing them up just gives them all the love and support their deviated thirium pumps could have.

Rung(RG100) is the first household android to come with an at home psychiatrist upgrade, but after getting way into and good at being a therapist and helping one of his owners realize the unhealthy relationship they’re in, his other owner beats him near death and throws him out to be forgotten. He’s found several years later by reader who’s shocked to find such an old model, and even more shocked to find him barely online. 

Swerve(SG500) is a lab assistant android for a group of metallurgist, and starts to deviate after seeing how social his owner and their lab partners are on a movie night in the lab, and being overwhelmed with a sense of loneliness. At the movie night slash party is also where he dipped his hands into making drinks due to his owner ordering him to be the nights bartender; something he actually found he enjoyed from the attention it got him from some of the more open party goers. After several instances of him talking when not needed, especially about things that didn’t pertain to projects at hand, higher ups made plans to replace him for “malfunctions”.

Ultra Magnus(UM350) is a police android, there to assist human officers if needed. However, he began to put himself more into the human officers work, rather than just be a stand by till summoned. His strict policy for justice and following the system to a T’, gets him into huge trouble with some bad cops, who just after he mentally reports, shoot up his body. He wakes up in the body of a Minimus Ambus(MA260) android to the reader and a RH700 android hovering over him, who tell him that they had to make a transplant to save his life after finding him bleeding out thirium on the side of a road. 

Nautica(NT1500) and Velocity(VC1500) are both entertainment androids belonging to a famous human popstar as her back up dancers. Both were purchased and brought online at the same time, and just as they had been awaken together, they deviated together. For Nautica, it started with fixing the smoking engine of a tour bus, and for Velocity it was fixing up her fellow android after being caught by an angry human mechanic. From there the two continued, in secret, to delve further into these hidden talents of theirs. After causing a delay in their owners shows, both very focused on helping the other with their interest, their popstar owner furiously demands to have them replaced. They just barely manage to get away from the enormous body guards sent after them.

Tailgate(TG200) was one of many prototypes to the first custodial androids. After several “issues” had been observed by Cyberlife and public volunteers, his make was decommissioned, and room was made to work on a new prototype. Tailgate had been placed in a museum about technology and it’s advancements through out history, where he was thought to be on display offline, but in actuality had been lying dormant. He awakes years later to another android, one he’s not aware of, in the dead of night and is quickly whisked away to the reader’s place, who is freaking out because this android, CY(200), just kidnapped him from a well known museum.

I don't really see the group living with the reader. The DJD are a group of damaged androids, built up from stolen parts, all configured to make them more dangerous, and each filled with the upmost hate towards mankind. Each has been through so much, witnessed so much, and have the single goal to rise above humans. They're extreme in their cause, not even sparing other androids if they show the tiniest of compassion or indifference to humans. Humans themselves, best pray they never encounter the deathly group.
