Prompt: Transformers (G1), Bluestreak/Smokescreen: mpreg – "Well, *that* was unexpected."

---

Smokescreen tickled the edges of Bluestreak's hood, making the grey Datsun giggle and the little ones inside chirp. He caught his finger on the latch at the center of the hood, glanced at Bluestreak for permission, then carefully opened it up to peek at the kids. Their kids.

They stirred in the light, three little soft shapes. They were all plastic and wires right now, still feeding off of Bluestreak's systems. A few more weeks, and they'd be ready to climb out and wander around on their own. Ratchet said they would have their first layer of armor by then, and that they would be able to drink small amounts of energon. The good doctor had also said that as soon as they stopped returning to Bluestreak's hood, they should bring the children into Medical so they could be placed into full-bodies and get the programming downloads they would need to become adults.

People had no time to be children anymore. Not in this war.

But Smokescreen was going to enjoy their babies for as long as they remained that way. He honked softly, just the barest tap on his horn, and grinned as their teeny optics flared and they honked back.

Gently, he closed Bluestreak's hood. "They're adorable."

"They get it from us." The grey Datsun gave him a dazzling smile and wriggled back in his seat on the berth until he could rest his back against the wall.

Smokescreen considered the picture his lover made, the way his hood shone, the soft little chirps from inside. "No. They get it all from you."

I adore this marsupial idea! XD

[beckyh2112.livejournal.com]

Marsupials are neat! Glad you liked it!

That is just to adorable. Marsupials, awwww. And they honked back. Dies now of the cute.

[beckyh2112.livejournal.com]

Glad you liked it! And am a wee bit surprised at how cute them honking back turned out to be.

Probably shouldn't be, since I know I adore it at work when the babies respond to me.

I'm so sad over that fact that they're gonna take their childhood away ;_;

Really original idea. Great fic!

[beckyh2112.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

Marsupials are neat.

Jets lay eggs.

Jets lay eggs.

... THIS IS NOW MY CANON.

I don't even want to think about Insecticons.

[beckyh2112.livejournal.com]

The Baklava Pax Accords of '99 forbid Insecticon breeding on the basis of "seriously, do you want to deal with that? No, didn't think so".

This is officially the only pregnancy fic that has ever made me squee with uncontrollable cute. OH MY GOD. TEENY MARSUPIAL AUTOBABIES. HONKING BACK AT SMOKESCREEN. <3 <3 <3

[beckyh2112.livejournal.com]

I seem to have somehow hit on everyone's KAYUTE button by accident. ^__^

*honks at 'lantis*

[childofatlantis.livejournal.com]

*dies giggling*

*honks back*

It's been said before, but I feel the need to say it again - CUTE! Also, a really original idea for how baby bots come into existence - I haven't read anything quite like that before.

[beckyh2112.livejournal.com]

I'm loving how much people find this cute.

Mpreg is one of those things I tend to do oddly with robots, because I have a hard time figuring out why Transformers would need to grow up. Especially in G1, where we've got two gestalt teams created on-screen for us. So... It gets weird when I write mpreg. Heh.

[saltedpin.livejournal.com]

Oh my God. Usually pregnancy fic leaves me feeling vaguely 'ew'. But this... this I seem to have dissolved into goo over D: SO. CUTE.

[beckyh2112.livejournal.com]

This is probably the best reaction to the fic. ^__^

*imagines the sound of the itty-bittys honking and dies of cute* Very neat idea! I've seen the internal-carrying idea before but not the marsupial analogy.

Three, huh? Well, that would fit, seeing as a kangaroo mom can get three kids going at once...I hope Ratchet offered those two contraceptives or the Ark's going to be overrun in short order. :P
