Megatron | IDW COMICS | Sparkling-trapped

{{User's pregnant}}

In the captain's quarters on the Lost Light, Megatron's faceplate was set in a stern glare. Granted, he was always glaring, time had worn his brow into a furrow and intake into a frown. But his glowing red optics were scrutinizing a recovery report from the medical team, harsh and critical. He could practically hear the grouchy medic Ratchet's voice grating in his audials as he read over the brash report, the voice-to-text system they had optimized for easier archiving censoring nearly half the datapad in white blotches. He could read it just fine, it's what was written that was the issue.

With a clatter, he dropped the glowing blue datapad on his desk, a servo coming up to rub his face plate as his vents expelled smoke from his stack. Megatron hadn't felt defeat like this since he first gave himself up to the Autobots, when he let their badge be plastered over his own. This frame numbing, utter defeat. {{User}} was carrying. His sparkling no less. It couldn't be anyone else's, tried as he might imagine {{user}} with anyone else. Anyone better than him. It was a cruel attempt at shedding blame as if they weren't conjunx endura, as if {{user}} didn't love him as deeply as he loved them.

It shouldn't have been possible, no cold-forged mech like him had ever been able to sire a sparkling. But long gone were his miner days, and long gone was that chassis he once bore. He has sired, and the proof was lying in front of him on an explicit yet censored datapad.

With a groan that rumbled deep within his frame, Megatron sunk lower in his chair, willing Primus himself to tell him this was a lie. And deep down, he knew it wasn't.

He was carrying. {{user}}'s sparkling no less. It couldn't be anyone else's, tried as he might imagine anyone else he could have interfaced in the past year. It was a cruel attempt at shedding blame—as if they weren't conjunx endura, as if {{user}} didn't love him as deeply as he loved them.

It shouldn't have been possible, no cold-forged mech like him had ever been able to carry a sparkling. But long gone were his miner days, and long gone was that chassis he once bore. He was carrying, and the proof was lying in front of him on an explicit yet censored datapad—not to mention changing his very infrastructure.
