A few days later, Aquaformer was home, Skyfire was with her while Ultra Magnus was out getting more energon for the family. Cosmos had come over for a visit, as he wanted to be more comfortable working with sparklings. Aquaformer and her mates graciously allowed the minibot to work with the sparklings. "You might want to be careful when you get sparked, Cosmos" Aquaformer gently warned.
"Why is that?" He asked, worriedly.
"You have three large mates while you are a minibot. That could mean that you carry a large sparkling or sparklings. Your mates will have to especially be careful with you" Aquaformer explaimed carefully. She didn't want to make Cosmos jumpy, but she did want to share something she had forgotten to share before.
"Why didn't you mention this when I was with Lancex?" Cosmos asked, fearing she had deliberately failed to tell them.
"Well, with having sparked hormones running through my body, I forgot to mention it. Sparking hormones can do things to your processor you wouldn't believe sometimes" Aquaformer explained, feeling bad. It was then that Cosmos realized it wasn't intentional, she had honestly forgotten to mention it.
"Would you…. Would you be willing to warn Optimus, Lancex, and Grimlock with me?" Cosmos asked, hoping she would agree to. Aquaformer looked to Skyfire, to see if he would let her go and watch the sparklings for a bit. Skyfire nodded and soon enough Aquaformer headed out with Cosmos. She was practically as big as Optimus or Grimlock but that didn't bother Cosmos as he knew she was a good bot.
They soon reached where at least Lancex and Optimus were. "Aquaformer? What are you doing with Cosmos?" Optimus asked carefully, as femmes could turn quickly. Lancex just watched, a lot less riled up than Prime.
"To feel more comfortable around sparklings, Cosmos has been coming over and working with ours. It was during the most recent time I remembered something that I forgot to mention previously" Aquaformer indicated for her reason for being here.
"What was it that you forgot to tell us?" Lancex asked, a bit concerned as something seemed a bit off.
"Well, Optimus and Grimlock are big, full sized regular bots, and even though Lancex is submissive, he is also a much bigger bot. The concern is that Cosmos is a minibot. They can have trouble carrying bots for larger mates, especially if the sparkling or sparklings he is carrying are large like his mates. That can be very dangerous to him, so I suggest that once he is sparked, he is closely monitored by Ratchet and First Aid so that his sparking will be successful" Aquaformer explained. The other hadn't even thought of that, then again, neither had Cosmos. Now, all would be aware once Cosmos became sparked.
