"Well, that's the whole thing, you're never thinking about anything else, just yourself! Fantastic, another Orion Pax master plan, I can’t WAIT to hear this!" - D-16

I remember being initially confused in the cinema when D-16 called Orion Pax selfish but since watching the film I thought about it more and more and it makes a lot of sense.

D-16 wasn't entirely wrong. Orion Pax had the best intentions for everyone on Cybertron but how he went about them can be perceived as selfish. Despite his best friend's continuing insistence on following protocol, Orion kept getting himself into trouble which led to D getting involved to protect him and this more often than not resulted in him being punished too. Orion never really treated D-16's feelings and concerns that seriously and continued with his antics anyway because he thought he was doing the right thing for them. He even tricked his best friend into participating in the Iacon 5000 despite D-16 saying he wanted no part in it the night before. He may have been enjoying himself during the race but tricking your friends isn't a good thing, no matter how good your intentions are. So Orion Pax was selfish in that regard.

However, it is very important to remember that D-16 is a massive hypocrite. From the revelation onwards, he only thought about what he wanted to do, how he felt. Orion Pax thought about everyone else and how they were victims of Sentinel Prime's crimes too, especially the miners. D-16 never thought about anything else, just himself.

D-16 robbed everyone of the justice they deserved by killing Sentinel Prime himself with his bare hands. He was the one who was truly selfish. Orion Pax was the one who was truly selfless and that is why he was granted the Matrix of Leadership and became Optimus Prime.

So uhh btw I want y'all to know that when the main four find Alpha Trion buried under the rocks, D16, Elita, and Orion, who are the three in the group that are miners, actually grab and lift the rocks off of him, while B127, who assumably wasn't a miner (and if he was it likely wasn't for that long) more so paws the rocks off of Alpha Trion.

I'm re-drawing this digitally and I want to post it by Early April because this is like my favorite paper drawing of them. So if Orion is pretty on paper he'll be prettier digitally HE'S SO PRETTY UGHHHH

Im alive, and I come with a gift.

Inspired by Apprentice au by @energ00n, love their work.

Also the roses represent something, won’t say what tho. 😊😁

Shadowplayed D-16 - Orion maybe wanting to find out a bit more about the anonymous author of that one datapad? I want to say it's 'Towards Peace', since Dee didn't seem in a place to be writing it post-TF1. He keeps looking through the Archives for more information, but of course there isn't any - 'Towards Peace' was never supposed to be published in the first place. Which might lead to him looking in other places, and maybe finding other information.

Ohhh. Yes yes abd he shares this tidbit with Dee and suddenly he knows what he's talking about he knows what was written in that book before Orion could even gush about it further.

Dee gets scared because he knows he never read it. Abd that gets Orions interest and wanting to look deeper.

First (you're here) || Next >>

Prime apprentice AU! (primeprentice? idk)

Basically the Thirteen are still alive and they take in apprentices to train for potential Primacy.

Prima Prime → Orion Pax

Megatronous Prime → D-16

Sorry for image quality, especially for the Miners' symbol, which is just a question mark. But a few things regarding Orion and Dee being in the race, particularly having to do with how they're seen and called.

For one, they literally just have a question mark by their name slot, while the other racers all have their genre of vehicle (car or jet). Plus, despite there obviously being two miners, the board just makes room for one slot. Which is kinda interesting given that the Iacon 5000 doesn't seem to have anything to do with teams. (I wonder what the board people would have done if Orion and Dee weren't racing together, and were just two miners in two completely separate places)

Two, Orion and Dee are kinda looked upon with disdain by cogged bots watched the race, especially the announcers. Like oh sure cool "OH MY PRIMUS there are miners in the race this is so intriguing and interesting" but let's be honest we don't really care that much. It's not like they could ever win in their eyes (hence the "now we can focus on the real competitors" after Orion and Dee seemed to have lost all chances of winning. But, along with that, all of the cogged bots literally just call them miners (which is also a common thing that kinda just happens throughout the movie. Really only a couple cogless bots get called by their actual names by cogged bots throughout the movie, and that's typically for reprimanding. Except for when Sentinel does). While the other cogless bots, though some just call them miners, because holy shit there are people like us, a couple do call them by name and quite a few seem to recognize them (likely more so Orion than Dee, because let's be honest Orion seems to be the more popular one just because of all of the shenanigans he pulls). So yeah.

Also something really not that related to this but I wanted to point out anyways, looking at the shots of the board plus the track, there are a lot more racers with a car vehicle mode than a jet vehicle mode that participate in the Iacon 5000.
