MagnusOp

MagnusOp is the slash ship between Ultra Magnus and Optimus Prime from the Transformers fandom.

Rebellion
Ultra Magnus is about to be oflined by Megatron when Starscream sees something flying towards them in the distance. It turns out to be Optimus, newly enhanced by the Forge, who lands and knocks Megatron aside. Optimus is surprised to see Magnus, and Magnus comments that Optimus is looking rather...robust. He smiles, but quickly turns serious as he tells Optimus that they destroy the fusion canons below. Optimus agrees and flies down to do so, and Magnus informs everyone that Optimus is alive.

After destroying the Deceptacon base, the Autobots all meet at their new base. Magnus says that he gladly relinquishes his command of the Autobots back to Optimus, and Optimus smiles as he welcomes him to earth. As well as welcoming him to Team Prime.

Project Predacon
Fowler tells the Audtobots the location of two of the Predacon remains, telling them to grab their kilts since one is in Scotland. Optimus tells Magnus to lead the wreckers there, and Magnus agrees. He does ask what a kilt is, and Optimus says that Folwer can be oblique at times. He's found it best to just ignore it and mobilize. Magnus heads out and passes the Forge Hammer, but pauses. He tells Optimus that he knows there's emotions tied to it, but Optimus says that this is no time to stand on ceremony. Magnus then picks it up and says he will give it a practical use.

Project Predacon

 * Ultra Magnus asks if there has been any word from Optimus.

Fanon
MagnusOp is a rarepair in the Transformers fandom. A most of the shipping comes from Transformers: Prime, although there is also a following within the TFA fandom. Although that one is more controversial as there is a power imbalance between the two in the series. For Prime fans, the ship is still smaller due to Magnus only appearing in the final season. Although there is an appeal of the ship early on, as their first onscreen interaction seems to indicate that Magnus might be attracted to Optimus. Or at least the new form given to him by the forge. On AO3, MagnusOp is the fifth most written ship for Ultra Magnus. There are currently 70+ written works.
