Three of cups

———

Optimus watched as Hot Rod played with Bumblebee, the two sparklings were building something with blocks. Bumblebee clumsily placing blocks at random and Rodimus fixing them before he carefully lined up the next block on top. It felt like just yesterday that Rodimus was upset about Bumblebee not being a puppy and Bumblebee barely being able to crawl. Both were growing up so fast before his optics. Optimus could only hope that the war could be ended before the two were old enough to enlist.

“Cute kids, aren’t they?” Kup said as he lit his cygar, “Hot Rod is getting faster in his alt-mode. I took a holo-video if you want to watch.”

“I would like that,” Optimus said with a sigh, “I wish I could be there more often for him, and for Bumblebee too.”

“And for the war to end,” Kup said, “but you know what they say, it takes a village to raise a child. You be there for them, but we will be there when you can’t.”

“I will,” Optimus said, “and I’ll make sure to be there when the war ends too. I want peace to be stable, for them and for everyone.”

TFA Bumblebee: Yeah! Uh… I’m actually in trouble, so I’m not allowed out of my Optimom’s sight at the moment.

TFP Bumblebee: *Beeps* Trouble? Optimom? *Beeps*

TFA BumbleBee: I call Optimus ‘mom’ so all of us younger than them Optimom. It’s fun doing this whole ‘family’ thing humans do.

TFP Bumblebee: *Beeps* How many are there and is somebot the dad? *Beeps*

TFA Bumblebee, frowning: I mean there’s about almost 10 of us that call them Optimom but only 3 of us are considered their kids. As for a dad…. Ugh He’s not my dad! He’s the dad to my siblings biologically but not to me.

TFP Bumblebee: ???

TFA Bumblebee: We like to tease Optimom about being a Sparkling stealer since the majority of us do have a creator of some kind.

TFA Bumblebee: My cousins are Starscream’s and Skyfire’s younglings.

TFP Bumblebee: *Beeps* What!? *Beeps*

TFA Bumblebee: Yeah, Optimom’s charisma won them over into the family unit. Optimom is hugging size. Careful of your Optidad, they have their sights on hugging him and will threaten to cry if he pushes them a way.

TFP Bumblebee tries not to laugh, but then realized they said ‘Optidad’.

TFA Bumblebee: Anyways, as for my siblings, they are Megatron’s.

The rest of the TFP crew listening to them whip their helms so fast in shock.

TFA Bumblebee: Optimom likes to say “they chose them.” My sister was already adopted by a human long before we ever met and in a life or death situation Optimom gave a piece of themself to keep her alive. So their kind of related now.

TFP Bumblebee: *beeps* how exactly is she Megatron’s? *beeps*

TFA Bumblebee: The Allspark does some weird things.

TFP Bumblebee: *beeps* and the last sibling? *beeps*

TFA Bumblebee: Ugh Megatron turned out to be alive blah blah Soundwave was created and manipulated and then thrown a way. He did his own thing after that, aimless and looking for something to latch onto. At first he latched onto hate and revenge because that’s the only thing he learned when he was created- after many failures and some kindness… he latched onto Optimom. Optimom was a solid presence that didn’t change. I’m not going to go into anymore detail though.

TFA Bumblebee had to stop talking as they belatedly realized they were too open about things that weren’t their call to make. They apologize about the over explanation and asked if they could just listen to some music they brought instead.

TFA Ratchet: Kid, you have got to get a handle on that mouth plate of yours. Telling everyone your life’s story.

TFA Bumblebee: Sorry! You know how I like to talk!

Eventually the TFP crew finally caught up at the name drop.

optimus: for…

optimus: til college

bumblebee: FOR TIL COLLEGE?!

@opti-dad | (( Cont from here ))

Optimus felt relived his little girl was safe. ::Thank you for that. I have recently returned to life, only to discover that a corrupted council took over. I have yet to put an end to their ways, and I fear Arianna would not be safe here.:: On his end, Optimus paused for a moment. ::What do you know of her current health condition?:: he asked. He knew Arianna would be suffering from their father-daughter bond being severed, and he wanted to know how far along she was.

So he was fighting. He did not envy that of his alternate. He could only hope this fight would be short, and not spread out.

::She gave us a datapad about faebots when she arrived, and explained about how she needed to fall in love and bond. So far, she has some pain, but she has not lost use of any limbs yet.:: He considered mentioning her so far failed attempts to find a mech partner, but decided not to. That was Arianna’s business to tell.

Optimus had been working late, so the comm call itself wasn’t unexpected, though he had assumed it would be Roselight or Arianna making sure he was not staying too late. To hear an intimately familiar voice asking for Arianna, well, to say a shock was putting it mildly.
