I have been watching way too much isekai reborn stuff, but the thought of Tarn/Damus reborn as a GalvRod baby in a G1-ish Peace AU made me cackle.
Basic premise Galvatron and Megatron are separate beings, and Optimus is alive with Rodimus his heir. Shenanigans occurred and GalvRod happened resulting in a baby.
The Autobots and Decepticons are united in trying to figure out how to explain to Rodimus his child is pure evil, but both Rodimus and Galvatron adore the little terror who is gleefully tormenting both sides.
Optimus, who retired, is crushed to find a cute child that full on hisses at him. Grandpa Optimus is absolutely determined to win him over, which baby Tarn scoffs at. Elita thinks it's hilarious and treats Tarn like an unruly cat but ultimately toothless.
Megatron thinks the murder attempts from an infant are charming and approves as it is a solid Decepticon pass time and laughs bouncing him on his leg. Galvatron agrees and praises his "little warrior" while Rodimus insists he's playing and scared of strangers.
Tarn meanwhile has found he reluctantly adores his clearly very foolish parents and this scattered mess of the remains of their species needs a firm directed hand.
Prowl, Mr. Bureaucracy himself is his favorite and actually listens to the baby babble and pieces it together, addressing Tarn like an adult. He is the one he behaves for as Prowl asks before picking him up and addresses him directly, allowing Tarn to make his own choices.
Oooo okay that would have interesting consequences especially considering Damus
Okay okay Galvatron and Megs being different people, not too outlandish of an idea
Mm yes shenanigans our favorite
"how could such a sweet thing create that" is something that has definitely been said at some point
Extra points if in this universe Galvatron is a little sillygoofy sillygoofy
ohh poor Oppy, he just wants to be the nice grandpa and spoil his grandson but sadly GalvRod have created a MENACE who does not care for Optimus (his rust sticks and Christmas gifts are welcome though)
Elita is right, it is hilarious as fuck, and Megatron is also right for getting along so well with the little menace.
Tarn hun this might be a much much better start for you, maybe with time you'll grow out of (some) of your evil. Some. Maybe. Mayyybe.
Ooo on him getting along with Prowl? I find the idea of Prowl treating a child like an extra small grownup adorable as fuck and it's cool Tarn is down for this

Salut! Tout d'abord, je suis une grande fan de votre écriture car j'aime particulièrement la façon dont vous étoffez mon couple TF préféré (GalvaRod) parce qu' ils sont tellement cool et ils montrent la qualité de leur auteur que je trouve excellente. Félicitations.
Donc, si c'est possible pour le <<ask game>>, j'aimerai lire votre version sur GalvaRod dans le AU où la problématique serait <<la grossesse accidentelle>> (avec Hot Rod comme le porteur)
Néanmoins, si ma demande ne peut être satisfaite, merci d'avoir lu mon commentaire.
À bientôt!
Thank you for your kind words! Now, GalvaRod + Accidental Pregnancy (Hot Rod specified as carrier) –
1. So, I’m thinking late G1. After Unicron, after Rodimus and Galvatron have been at it a while, after Optimus has been resurrected and the Primacy returned to him. This frees Hot Rod up to a) be Hot Rod again, and b) be so incredibly lonely because ascending to the top of the ranks was isolating as all hell, but descending back down doesn’t manage to put him back on the level of everyone else again. They followed him as the Prime for years. They know he’s going to be the Prime again when the time comes. It’s like impostor syndrome from a different angle, and it’s awful.
And, of course, who can forget Galvatron? Galvatron, who will never accept Optimus in Rodimus’ place. Who tracks Hot Rod down just to fight him and exchange banter with him, and prove to him (and to himself) that this is his nemesis, his rival, his fated, his other half, his –
Yeah. They slip into a secret relationship from there. (Well, Scourge and Cyclonus know, but no one else does.)
2. Now, in G1, new mecha come from a) Vector Sigma, like the Aerialbots, b) built and then slowly develop sapience over time, like the Dinobots, and the good old fanon c) from robot pregnancy. Let’s say that when two (or more!) mecha join and blend their sparks and EM fields enough, there is a small, miniscule chance of creating a spark which then orbits around its carrier’s spark and develops and strengthens over time, until it’s ready to be put into a frame.
It’s rare. It is, in fact, so rare, that Hot Rod barely knows what’s happening when the first symptoms show up. It’s only when he looks through the medical archives – he is not going to the med-bay if he can help it – and then in front of a mirror with his chestplate open to see his spark chamber that he fully realises what’s happened. Ah, crud. Now what’s he gonna do?
3. Turns out he probably should have been more worried about what Galvatron was going to do. His bonded (who can look after himself) stuck amidst his enemies (ignoring that his bonded is also ostensibly an enemy)? Difficult, but Hot Rod can handle himself, and Galvatron refuses to insult him so. His mate and unborn heir stranded behind enemy lines? Now that’s a whole other story.
Galvatron has never been a mech inclined to creation. Didn’t, in fact, think that he could kindle a spark with another, the influence of the Destroyer too great within him. So this is nothing short of an actual miracle, and certainly a sign that Hot Rod – the only one who can match him – belongs to and with him, and he to Hot Rod.
Yeah. So there might be a bit of… light kidnapping.
4. Hot Rod’s response to this is somewhere between, Oh, my mate has come for me and is here and keeps me safe and provides for me, the way his carrier coding is rejoicing at, and a much more Autobot and Hot Rod-esque, Bitch the fuck you don’t, what the hell?
But Hot Rod? Hot Rod has a plan.
You see, in Cybertronian society – both Autobot and Decepticon – carriers (currently carrying a spark to emergence) have the absolute last say on matters of the new-spark, especially concerning when and where they choose to separate them from their own spark, and of their new frames. This is a hold-over from when carriers had to be hidden from the view of their Quintesson masters, so that the mecha created may be smuggled out and emerge free, but it still holds strong sway – for better and for worse – to this day.
“Galvatron, if you don’t open negotiations for an end to the war, I’m leaving and I’m taking the new-spark.”
5. The reactions of his fellow Autobots are… something, to say the least. Most of Hot Rod’s time is spent assuring them that yes, he loves (no matter how ill-advisedly) Galvatron, and yes, the carrying was accidental but yes he does want the new-spark, and no, Galvatron is not going to betray the treaty, he’s a mech of his word and more than that he knows what I’ll do if he pulls that kind of slag, chill out.
Optimus looks a bit stunned at how all this ended. Magnus just sort of… runs a hand over his face and then buries himself in logistics. Kup is somehow both Hot Rod’s greatest supporter and greatest detractor with the way he can’t decide whether or not everything that’s happening is good or not. That’s tiring, so Hot Rod hopes he figures that out, because he does love Kup, really and truly, but this is exhausting.
Springer and Arcee join forces with Scourge and Cyclonus regarding being the long-suffering best friends (an Autobot term) or loyal supporters (a Decepticon one) of the two involved. This does not happen immediately, but sometimes strange times make for strange friends.
Galvatron’s grumpy, but delighted at being given free reign to blast the slag out of the Quints and any other threat to the Cybertronians. Hot Rod’s still a bit in shock at the direction his life has taken, but – it’s not a bad shock, and he thinks he could grow to like peace, no matter how strange it is.
The new-spark’s name is Terratron.

I need to resist the urge to start another WIP since I'm still working on my others, but I like GalvRod a lot and now I kinda want a Galvatron joins the Lost Light AU that ends up with Rodimus dating him.
Their first meeting ends up in a physical fight, and Rodimus bites him.
I feel like it ends up with everyone vagiely horrified by Rodimus's taste, but Rodimus ends up with an incredibly ride or murder suicide partner he for once has absolutely no insecurities about losing.
Drift is bluescreening about how GALVATRON happened while he was gone when he's already staggering to process Megatron.

IDW GalvRod would be very entertaining imo
guy who kills Primes as a hobby + the only valid Prime in history (i'll die on this hill)
this isn't your ordinary Enemies to Lovers...this is Enemies to Enemies to Enemies to Lovers. there are layers

Could I ask for Rodimus getting kidnapped and tied up by the Decepticons? Can be any Decepticon of your choice - EmsieSecretstuff
Rodimus glared at the wall in his cell. The cons had ambushed him and grabbed him in battle, and when he woke up, his legs and torso were cuffed to a chair. His servos were free, which he found strange.
“Rodimus Prime,” Galvatron said as he walked into the room with a box under his arm, “welcome.”
“Why am I here?”
“You are here for a simple battle,” Galvatron set the box on the table, “one of incredible wit and intelligence!”
Rodimus’s eyebrow twitched before he read the box, “that is monopoly jr.” The Prime was convinced that this was some sort of joke. It had to be some sort of joke.
“So you're familiar!” Rodimus looked at Galvatron’s enormous grin, and found no trace of deceit or mockery in his face, “that’s wonderful, Cyclonus will be here in a moment to set it up and we shall begin!”

This was quite the project to work on for myself! I have the completed introductory fic for my GalvRod Sparkling AU inspired by @pastelpaperplanes 's MegOp AUs. It is full of delicious Angst, Comfort, and Fluff. I will definitely be adding more fics and art to this AU in the future and feel free to give me some feedback.

for the pairing + au thing; GalvRod + Hot Rod never got the Matrix/turned into Rodimus au
So this begs the question, why does the Matrix not pick its canonical Most Favourite Boy? You could take this a lot of directions, but the one I liked the most is...
1. A Groundhog day loop, following the events of the movie and beyond...but only the Matrix knows about it.
2. Sure, Unicron gets dealt with, maybe Galvatron and the Matrix's preferred Prime of choice even tend to get along surprisingly well. But it's getting kind of desperate at this point with repeated loops and as many different Primes as it can get its metaphorical hands on. Still it eventually winds up here, in the core of Unicron, slung around Galvatron's neck like a trophy while its favourite mech, Hot Rod, struggles against him.
3. What the hell, it's tried everything else at this point; there's only so much a semi-sentient shard of a sleeping god's spark can do. Might as well see if this does anything. This time, the Matrix chooses...Galvatron. Unicron is killed - as much as he can be killed - in the transformation itself, opposing forces destroying each other like matter and antimatter.
4. "Rise, Galvatronus Prime" is barely heard over the screaming. Hot Rod is certainly no longer the focus of Galvatron's attention, and he sure did just hear and witness what just happened. At some point Galvatron tears the Matrix from his neck and throws it, clawing at himself as the Autobot relic bounces violently from the floor only to arrive at Hot Rod's feet.
5. Well, Galvatron did just kill a god for them, and he definitely needs help right now. He might be in trouble - serious trouble - later, but Hot Rod has already made his decision as he bends to retrieve the Matrix. It's warm in his hands.
"Hey," he approaches Galvatron carefully, "I think this is yours."

What are your fav otps? Like, do you have a top 5 or is it depending on the series eg, idw, g1, tfa, etc.
I have some that are cross-continuity like:
MegOp, MegaStar, Prazz, and Dratchet. Those are always in my top cross-picks. 
Otherwise it depends on the series.
For G1: AstroBlitz, GalvRod, Red Inferno, IronOp, StarOp, & Skystar
For IDW (basically MTMTE & RID) I have A LOT but top are probably: Driftrod/Hotlock, ShockOP, Thunderbee, and MegaRod.
TFA: Blitzbee
TFC: Hot Rod/Cheetor (HotCheeto lol) and WheelWave so far
TFP: WheelRatch
These definitely aren't all the ships I like but they're the ones I tend to go back to when I'm reading fics (or that I just think would be nice).

Galvatron is definitely the Carrier and a complete menace during so. He goes from a lot of extra energy horny menace (there were several instances of Cyclonus kidnapping Rodimus for peace) to falling asleep at the drop of the hat and had strangely expensive tastes and the absolute worst mood swings (he cried about Daniel Witwicky being so small and nearly threw Soundwave out a window). He also took a liking to classic music and cried during a preformance that everyone on pain of death doesn't acknowledge with only Rodimus getting away cooing at him.
Rodimus had full My Beautiful Mate 🥰 blinders on which Scourge and Cyclonus shared to varying degrees while everyone else prayed this Hell would end soon as RodiCycScour were also varying degrees of useless to mitigating damages. Galvatron wants rubies for breakfast then Cyclonus is getting him rubies, petty human laws mean nothing. Galvatron needs sleep Scourge well gut anyone breathing too loudly. Galvatron needs sex sorry Magnus I need to borrow a shuttle immediately.
They all were relieved and knew brief peace until Tarn or the Sparkling/Spawn as he was referred to until old enough to say his name per Galvatron's decision as when asked his bame Galvatron got annoyed and said his Spawn hadn't told him yet.
The only people more around Tarn's tiny claws than his parents are Cyclonus and Scourge.
Yepyepyepyepyep
of course his tastes are expensive of course
Goddamn poor Soundwave
hmm, that's interesting foreshadowing
Roddie does not give a fuck, his wife is Perfect and Amazing and allowed to do Anything right now because he is Carrying🥰🥰🥰, and his trinemate in laws agree to some extent (I feel like Cyc agrees more than Scourge, but Cyc is also a little bit tired of these antics)
Varying degrees of useless to mitigating damages
Yeppp
They are down to clown with his antics
Very very brief peace
You know Galvatron isn't the only mech I've seen do that so ykw valid
yess. Tarn absolutely has manipulating Cyc and Scourge down to an art

That's a hilarious idea :D Is Galvatron the carrier? Just imagine the g1 cartoon version of Galvatron carrying. What beautiful chaos would ensue <3
And baby Damus would have two uncles!
Exactly exactly yes yes
I feel like he'd make a menace if himself while carrying if just because he's g1 Galvatron
Dude will try and do thinks he is not allowed to do because he is visibly very pregnant, like Cyclonus Scourge Rodimus please get your Unicronian at the front desk he's causing a scene
He would!!

Galvatron/Hot Rod + Quintesson occupation AU?
Ooh, now this is a different concept! Especially when Hot Rod is specified and not Rodimus Prime. Let’s see here…
1. Okay, so, in an AU outside of any canon continuity, those darn Quintessons come back. And they’re pissed. Everything is, not to put too fine a point on it, dystopically terrible, after they re-occupy and re-enslave Cybertron and its inhabitants. (There is a resistance, of course there is, but it’s still finding its feet.)
War-builds, like Galvatron, are folded into the Quintesson armies, or else are put into coliseums and gladiatorial rings for entertainment purposes. Hey, no one ever said that the Quints didn’t enjoy a good show, and outside of their courtrooms, the coliseum is the best place to find it.
2. Galvatron is, of course, in one such coliseum. He’s a pretty well-known gladiator, well-liked by the bookies, famed for his vicious kills and lack of mercy. He can’t afford to have such a thing, and this is survival of the fittest. And Galvatron is, if nothing else, a survivor.
Hot Rod, meanwhile, is a PA for a Quint. No, it’s not glamorous, and mostly consists of following his master around day in and day out, never getting a break and obeying their every whim.
This may not, on the surface, look like much of a day-to-day battle the way Galvatron’s situation does, but make no mistake: Hot Rod is in just as much danger, and has far less safety nets. The coliseum would lose money if Galvatron were to die – Hot Rod’s master would just shrug and get a replacement if they tired of Hot Rod and killed him for fun.
3. Hot Rod’s Quintesson master, however, likes their entertainment, and they like it bloody. They’re a regular at the coliseum, and one day they place another bet (this is a frequent action from them) – and lose.
To make up the gap in the credits they owe and do not have, they rescind Hot Rod to be coliseum property. Another slave around the place, one with admin and assistant experience and not some dumb war-build, is more than enough for the owners to write off the debt, and for Hot Rod’s old master to walk away easily, without a single thought for Hot Rod.
4. Hot Rod’s not really having a great time. He’s now surrounded by a lot of mecha who hate the very idea of him, walking around and watching their pain while not having to fight himself (though the owners deciding to toss him in the ring just for the entertainment of him getting torn apart is always a looming shadow). It’s not fun, because they’re all victims here, but anger and fear have to go somewhere, and Hot Rod is unlucky enough to be the recipient.
Mind you, he’s not a passive recipient. Galvatron’s first ever impression of Hot Rod is him snapping back at some other gladiator, small but so very feisty. It’s so energetic, so very much alive and vicious and fighting for survival with everything he has, that Galvatron is pretty much struck with admiration for this little racer. He takes Hot Rod under his protection, and under his snarl and glare, no other gladiator dares to touch Hot Rod.
5. Their relationship grows from a protection deal to companionship and then to… more. Galvatron had forgotten the nuance and need for gentle touch, and he’ll probably never accept it from just anyone, but – he is more than just a weapon, an animal in the ring, and Hot Rod makes him feel that way, remember that way, and he’ll never let that go.
Hot Rod won’t deny he was scared at the beginning, but – Galvatron’s intensity, under the surface, is born from deep anger, and that anger can only be born from an intrinsic knowledge that people are not things. It’s not a soft love, though sometimes it edges that way in dark nights full of whispers, but it’s real, it’s grounding, and it’s the anchor in the storm outside the window of their lives.
Eventually, because hope is a flame lit in the chest and fed by love and anger and fear and determination, they escape the coliseum and join the Resistance of Free Cybertronians. This war is far from over yet.

if I'm not too late for the ask game: Rodgalv + Decepticon!Hot Rod?
You aren’t too late to the ask game, it’s open ‘til the end of May :) Now, without further ado –
1. The thing about time travel is that it, uh, can go a bit… awry. Rodimus Prime cracks open the Matrix in his hands – ignoring the shouts of his mecha behind him, because this is the only way left – and throws his spark back into the hurricane, urging it to go, go, go, there’s gotta be a better path to take, and that’s how he ends up here.
He blinks at Springer. Springer blinks at him. The gleaming gold lights of Vector Sigma spin around them like an Earth disco ball (Kup would have had his head if he’d ever said that out loud, but whatever, he’s not here. He’s not here, and that thought is painful.) Then Springer aims a blaster at him, and Rodimus – no, Hot Rod – ducks to the side on instinct. “’Con!”
(So – that’s different. Hot Rod came out of Vector Sigma an Autobot, in another time, built and taken down to be sparked by his cell. But this is not that time, by Hot Rod’s own design, and this time he comes out of the planetary supercomputer with red optics and a purple sigil on his front. He still looks the same otherwise, all magenta and orange, yellow and white, racer alt like an Autobot but in-built weaponry like a Decepticon.)
Springer looks betrayed, by Hot Rod or by Vector Sigma is up for grabs, and Hot Rod – he just – no, no, no. Not Springer, not his old friend. He refuses. He grabs for Springer’s blaster, wrests it from his hands with the advantage of surprise and of knowing Springer’s hand-to-hand combat style by spark, and flees. He’s not a coward, but he can’t afford to fight and die here, or, worse, fight and kill here. He’s got a job to do.
2. That job is stopping Unicron before he ever touches Cybertron, because it turns out that Unicron leaks out so much corrosive spiritual miasma that the astro-second his fingers brushed Cybertron’s surface, he doomed the planet to a slow death as it rusted away, the necrosis unable to be stopped. And since Cybertron is, itself, the source of life for the Cybertronians, that’s… something to be avoided entirely, this time.
In another time, as the spreading necrotic virus spread to attack the sparks of those fighting in other galaxies, Autobot and Decepticon alike, from the lowest soldier up to the Prime himself, even Galvatron had ceased to laugh.
3. Hot Rod joins up with a patrolling group of Decepticons. He’s got the badge, he’s got the optics, and when they get him to the med-bay under armed supervision, he’s even got the coding. Shockwave seems mutedly amused at the idea of the Autobots trying to boost their numbers and getting a ‘Con for their efforts instead, and as a whole the Decepticons aren’t in a position to turn away any reinforcements. Besides, Hot Rod’s a new-spark – what’s he gonna do? Betray them for a group that tried to kill him the second he came into existence?
And that’s how Hot Rod spends the next few centuries: scout and saboteur for a side he still doesn’t agree with regarding their overall aims, but at this point, down on the ground with the long stalemate dragging on as it has been for millions of years, life isn’t so different. Survival is top priority, and the minutiae of life is much the same from this side as it was from the other. They’re all people, all Cybertronians, in the end.
4. Fast forward a little: even though he knows it’s coming, Hot Rod doesn’t step in to save Megatron (as would be demanded of his new side) or Optimus (because… how? Guy decided that Autobot City would be his last stand, taking both leaders down together, and there’s not much Hot Rod can do to change that.)
There is one thing he does do: he steals the Matrix. With his ‘Con coding, it can’t choose him to become an Autobot Prime, and that’s… a greater relief than it should be. He tries not to feel guilty, but can’t quite manage it. Even so, he hides it in his subspace as the doomed coronation of Starscream begins. He feels Soundwave squint at the back of his head, but ignores it.
5. Galvatron. He’s here, and Hot Rod freezes at the feeling that flows over him, suffusing through his spark as much as it does his circuitry. He sees Cyclonus’ head turn, as though scanning the room, but his optics are glued to Galvatron, and the way he crushes the crown beneath his pede, and stands up before them, power-power-power leaking from him in every way. His Decepticon coding shivers at it, awed. It feels like Galvatron’s optics burn into his when they briefly meet.
It doesn’t stop him from sneaking away the first chance he gets. Doesn’t stop him from stealing a small ship and taking it out, far out, and hovering it close to where Unicron is floating in space, disguised as nothing more than a metal planet drifting with no orbit, inexorably closer and closer to Cybertron. The lion does not bother with a gnat, after all. Too much energy expenditure for so little a prey.
It doesn’t stop him from aiming one of Shockwave’s stolen cannons right at Unicron, the thing loaded up with a fractured Matrix ready to break and spill its light everywhere. Unicron screams, the sound echoing in a way that the vacuum of space should prohibit, and dies without ever knowing who killed him.
“Soldier!” barks a deep voice that Hot Rod knows all too well from his comm panel. He turns, spies Galvatron inside Cyclonus’ alt outside the small ship’s viewport, and swallows as he opens the door for them to land inside. Galvatron is huge, imposing, and – Hot Rod stares up, and feels something unfurl in his spark.
“They tell me you are called Hot Rod,” says Galvatron.
“Yes, my lord,” Hot Rod says, nearly stammers.
Galvatron steps closer, curls his huge hand over Hot Rod’s arm, and pulls him forward. It’s not an embrace, but it could almost be. Something moves in Hot Rod’s spark again. “You set me – us – free. You… who is mine, ours. Spark to spark. Mine.”
Cyclonus nods behind him, and ah. That’s what that feeling was. “Yours,” Hot Rod replies. “Always.”

Galvatron’s the newly-crowned queen of a kingdom on the brink. She needs to pull together her divided people, reinstate an alliance her idiot grandfather smashed into pieces, and secure the future royal line. 
Nobody panic! She’s got a plan.
This is absolute unrepentant kinky smut with way too much worldbuilding. Enjoy me getting back into a GalvaRod flow.

Funniest Possible "Parents" for Tarn/Damus/Glitch that ignores timelines and ages and reproduction for amusement.
MegOP, classic, divorced, Optimus originally had custody until Megs got him and he wound up hating both by the end. Especially in TFP.
ShockOP, tragic, Orion Pax got custody his sugar daddy's kids when he mysteriously vanished, and one of them decided to join a group dedicated to destroying the government that erased Shockwave. The "your aren't my dad vibes are imaculate".
Rodiclash, the absolutely funniest reason for Damus to have originally been those colors. Also, making him younger and the baby of the DJD is hilarious conceptually. Also he's personal grudge against Thunderclash is a mistaken thought on Hot Rod's part that Thunderclash ran out on them when in reality his eveil second in command hid it leading to the break up and Roddie becoming a single parent. If he's father is "the Greatest Autobot Ever" clearly being and Autobot isn't worth much. The Lost Light is the Daddy Issue onion.
Minimus x OG Ultra Magnus, the absolute regency drama aesthetics of this and the shock and reveal would be great, and both Tarn and Minimus would be hilarious to deal with this emptionally strained revelations. Dominus pegging Tarn as his nephew and kidnapping him because he did the math and "who fucked his little brother, ran out on him, and lead to this"? Suddenly that summer abroad makes sense. Funnier if original Ultra Magnus is alone and Dominus highjacks the DJD to track him down and have a family reunion while the DJD awkwardly tries to be supportive and are confused why Vos is so murderous. Minimus, meanwhile, is having a tearful reunion with the child he gave up for adoption, thinking he'd have a better life only to find out his life wasn't great while Tarn is going through all sorts of emotions and tears up as well. Vos meanwhile has cornered Ultra Magnus saying "he just wants to talk." Adds an interesting layer to Minimus's thing with Ultra Magnus.
Ultra Magnus x Hot Rod, TFP, Ultra Magnus showing up with Hot Rod and their mildly evil baby.
RodiSound, Cyberverse. Everyone trying to figure out how to tell the mourning Rodimus, he's widow baby with Soundwave looks just like a miniature version of the guy who tried to take over Cybertron.
G1 GalvRod. Hilarious.
You're so right though
Megop divorce child Damus is always interesting yep yep
OO ON SHOCKOP WITH GLITCH BECAUSE THAT'S BAAAAASICALLY CANON. It's basically canon. Basically.
OWO on rodiclash baby Tarn, because that would have all the implications considering Tarn. Just... Considering Tarn.
The Lost Light is the Daddy Issue onion
Indeeeeed
The idea of Minimus having known the original UM has interesting implications and symbolism considering what goes down later on, and I am also gifted the idea of beastformer!Tarn who would be beautiful. Dominus would have such an interesting role in it too. Yesss.
IT WOULD BE HILARIOUS FOR TFP MAGS TO SHOW UP WITH A SILLYGOOFY BOYTOY AND A MILDLY EVIL BABY.
Having Damus/glitch/Tarn as a Cyberverse Soundrod baby would be mildly hilarious because you can argue he explicitly named this kid after the guy who tried to kill them all out of spite. You can argue for reincarnation here considering how it was Soundwave that took Cyberverse Tarn out of the world, and you can argue that it was Soundwave and Rodimus who proceeded to bring him back into it. raise him right this time.
Another suggestion: tfp wavewave child Tarn. He's their passion project in so many ways of the word.
aNOTHER SUGGESTION: earthspark Glitch/Damus who was adopted/fostered by Megatron for a while. We follow with my one idea where his design is more like his "Glitch" era design but a little more eldritch

I do not have a title yet but I have ideas about what went on back on Cybertron as well.
Namely, the All Spark did get there in time, and Cybertron lived with those who remained. I'm thinking it did trigger some new Decepticons and Autobots being born and I live GalvRod so Hot Rod and Galvatron being born and meeting each other first only to get separated and be raises by the remainders of their opposing factions.
Hot Rod being raised by Ultra Magnus, the Shields of Solus (Elita's old squad), and Kup and *drum roll* Galvatron being raised by Tarn and Strika.
Galvatron is Tarn's special boy and chosen succesor to Megatron. Tarn in this having been more administrative and taken Shockwave's traditional role as Guardian of Cybertron with Strika.
Hot Rod's generation also included Pharma (I like the idea of him also having been born on Alyon), Cyclonus, Scourge, Tailgate, Springer, Windblade, Nautica, Minerva, Slipstream, etc.
Hot Rod doesn't have the Matrix, but it is clear from that snippet their are other Prime artifacts around, so maybe he finds something else. Eventual Rodimus Prime though because I love Roddy/Galvatron Nemesiship
You have a relationship, but we have a Nemesisship
That's gotta turn out interesting, way so interesting
So Roddie gets another artifact, hmmm there's so many options (especially since from what I saw some of the Thirteen artifacts are familiar besides the Matrix and the Emberstone but some aren't)
So shit has been going DOWN
