oh and some doodles of ratchpax and optiratch i did at work!

You wanted sparks. You wanted yearning. You wanted Ratchet threatening to throw a wrench at Optimus’s face mid-confession ( that one's mostly me ) WELL. Here we go.

Each week of August, we’ve got a new prompt to help you channel the chaos, comfort, and complicated feelings that come with shipping the Prime and the Medic™.

🧁 Week 1: 1 – 7 August — Sparklinghood Friends

Ah yes, baby bots with big feelings and bigger sparks. Whether you imagine them sparring in the training arena, sneaking out after curfew, or sharing a datapad and a dream, this week is for childhood friends to battlefield partners content. Bonus points if someone already had a crush and absolutely repressed it.

🪴 Week 2: 8 – 14 August — Post-War Retirement

Finally. Peace. Now what? Ratchet has Opinions about interior decorating, and Optimus still tries to strategize his grocery runs. Whether it’s quiet mornings, grumpy garden wars, or awkward attempts at hobbies, give us your soft domestic aftermath fluff (or angst—we know you can’t help yourselves).

🔥 Week 3: 15 – 21 August — Injured During Battle

Listen, someone had to get blown up, and now someone else has to hover anxiously and whisper things they’ll pretend never happened later. This week is for the medbay dramatics, battlefield confessions, and that one stubborn mech who refuses to rest but absolutely melts when his partner fusses over him.

💔 Week 4: 22 – 31 August — Pre-Relationship Yearning

Ah, the golden era of emotionally constipated longing. The lingering glances. The almost touches. The "If I tell him how I feel it’ll ruin everything and also maybe I’ll die." vibes. Whether you go sweet, angsty, or feral, this prompt is for all the slowest of slow burns — before anything was said out loud, but everything was already there.

Pick your favorite. Do one, do all four, mix and match, or throw in your own take — we’re just excited to see what you create.
