#TFA Ariel

[theangrycomet-art]

TFA: Ariel/Elita 1's Squadron, Team Orthia

I fell down the wiki rabbit hole last night and now I have these.

Everyone's heights are off/going to change in the future because I wasn't sure on everyone's alts when I was first drawing out the line up.

I mostly just wanted to get ideas down on paper.

COMMISSIONS OPEN

Transcript of my Handwriting Plus Other Lore:

Nothing here’s set in stone I just wrote down ideas/compiled thoughts as they came to me.

edit: Changed Lancer’s Profile Info to match new ideas I have

TFA: Sheild of Solus

Operation: Failsafe

Purpose: To sabotage any and all Decipticon efforts of gaining any headway in this war. First, start off with the infiltrators, next, hit them where it hurts.

After discovering a spy had infiltrated their ranks, Alpha Trion took it upon himself to assemble a team to sabotage any Decipticon efforts to gain a foothold on Cybertron, hoping that they would be able to counter any threats on Cybertron.

Ariel/Elita-1

Commander and the Leader

High-ranking member of the Elite Guard

Alpha Trion’s inside eyes

Alt Mode: Cybertronian Heavy Duty Truck -> Monster Truck

Special Upgrade: Classified

Good-Morningstar Mace: Morning star with detachable head

Laser Kusarigama: This weighted chain serves Elita well when she needs to tie up the enemy (or retrieve your teammate as her gravity fluctuates again)

Tidbit: One of the few of the Elite Guard to not have gone to the Academy, Elita rose through the ranks through her skill and ingenuity, despite other’s misgivings. A bit rough around the edges, she is always there for her fellow bots. When her former mentor requested her aid in his mission, she had no hesitation joining. (It helped that it got her away from her more tiresome coworkers)  

Chromia

Second in Command

Recon Specialist, Infiltrator

Former Intelligence Officer; she retired when she was not allowed to investigate Highbrows abrupt disappearance and opened a private investigator business.

Alt Mode: Cybertronian Trike -> Trike (like Harley-Davidson Tri Glide Ultra)

Special Upgrade: Lockpick: with enough time she can pick any lock and hack into any systems with the extensions in her servos. However, this can takes a lot of her processing power and leaves her vulnerable.

Laser Sabre: Good for clashing blades and slipping between the seams of an enemy’s armor

Tidbit: Despite her worrying over her teammates, Chromia has a habit of diving helm first into her work with little disregard for herself, whether that be forgetting to refuel and recharge or tempting fate with more self-sacrificial tendencies. She’s been working on it, but bad habits die hard…

Novastar

Search and Rescue, Transportation and Retrieval

Served in the tail-end of the Great War

Worked previously in Search and Rescue with her partners Inferno and Red Alert

Through this line of work, she developed extensive connections.

AltMode: Cybertronian Truck -> Narrowbed Truck

Special Upgrade: Furnace: Nova is able to generate massive bursts of flame, and she has refined the practice into an art. The flames on her head are no only an aesthetic choice, but an outlet for the excess heat she generates. These are easily extinguished; a fact Inferno took great joy in abusing the damn firetruck bot.

Blowtorch: During her time in field during the Great War, Nova lost her left servo to a Decpticon when retrieving soldiers from behind enemy lines. She had it replaced with a blowtorch prothesis that allows her to pinpoint flames to temperatures that can cut through even the toughest of materials- temperatures that otherwise would melt her frames

Tidbit: Novastar has been trying to locate Inferno, who has recently gone MIA after responding to an off-planet distress beacon with a new recruit with little to no luck. She is hoping the new job title will grant her greater resources to expand her search.

Greenlight

Engineer

“The Miracle Worker”

A student of WheelJack’s

Greenlight’s inventions can be brilliantly or devastating (or if she’s lucky) both. She tends to get attached to her devices, however, and gets rather despondent when they are broken or do not work as intended.

Aloof, she doesn’t see the need to waste much time with small talk. It requires a bot with a lot of patience (and ability to pester) to get her to come out of her shell

Alt Mode: Cybertronian Offroader

Special Upgrade: Tasers: Though not a combat bot, Greenlight saw fit to mod herself out with some decent defense. The tasers stored in her arms can generate enough volts of electricity that can through bots thrice her size flat on their backs.

Boom Cannon: A weapon still in its testing phases, she has been building it up from stolen Decepticon specs in her free time.

Tidbit: If asked, Greenlight will say that she agreed to sign up to get out of community service for accidentally demoing a perfectly good lab with one of her inventions. While partly true, a larger part of why she joined was because she didn’t want Lancer doing this alone.

Lancer [Edited]

Researcher

Unofficial Medic

Student of Perceptor

Alt Mode: n/a, missing T-Cog

Special Upgrade: FlipScreen: her “skirt” doubles as computers, monitor and keyboard included. This grants her access to ALL of her files and more importantly allows her to run any necessary scans, analysis, or algorithms she needs when or wherever she needs. It is also a bold fashion statement

BackPack Variety Hour: She has a variety of “backpacks” each serving different purposes, though if you ask anyone but Lancer they all look identical. Despite their incredible weight, she carries them with ease.

Backup Generator: Via the generator on her back, she could keep a city fully powered without straining her spark. Most of this energy goes into the powering the extra processors she has stored in her “skirt”

Star Splitter: a powerful laser spear, though she more often then not uses it for pole vaulting than actual combat

Tidbit: Lancer has been a researcher for the Autobots for longer than many bots have been alive, mostly regarding projects Ultra Magnus would rather not go public. Despite the JetTwins being by far the most successful of these endeavors, Lancer quit shortly after. When Alpha Trion offered her a more savory research position with Twam Orthia she was quick to accept and get out from Ultra Magnus’ thumb.

Moonracer

Sharpshooter/Sniper

“Best in the Whole Galaxy!”

Graduated top of her classes at the Autobot Academy but has struggled to keep a longterm position due to her impulsive behavior, with her last job being messenger-bot for Security.

Alt Mode: Cybertron Compact Car -> Vector W8

Special Upgrade: Internal Gravity Manipulator: As labelled on the tin, she has the ability to shift her gravity, decreasing AND increasing. Typically, she uses this to “float” or “moon walk”. The change in gravity can be extended to objects she comes into direct contact, but maintaining it drains her very quickly.

Velicotron Build: Speedster Though not as fast as the infamous Blurr, Moonracer is incredibly quick both as a bot and her alt form. Combine this with her gravity-defying abilities leads to some devastating results.

Custom Ion Pistols: Dual pistols that can combine into her sniper rifle.

Tidbit: Moonracer is a good bot with a good head on her shoulders. She will always do what she thinks is right- but she tends to jump the gun on things which gets her into trouble. With inexperience comes naivety, but how is she supposed to learn anything if nobody gives her a chance to do anything?

Some art videos:

@blitzy-blitzwing for that one video I must tag.

:3 I love their AU, fic, and Art! Super cute!!

I can’t stop drawing Ariel with four arms now. The insect legs confused me so much that two tiny arms just makes sense.

[seraphim-seeker]

Possible Idea for a rewrite of sorts for my Continuity of Transformers. (Bc I want more Dion Content and Angst in my life) What if- and here me out- Dion is Sentinel, not by choice. Just one day, bro gets Kidnapped and turned into Sentinel because the Senate couldn’t find a decent prime they make one.

Ariel, Orion, Megatron are obviously devastated at the disappearance of their bestie, they look everywhere ask everyone and anyone they can but nothing comes up. Then they hear of this new Prime, they notice he’s got similar colors to Dion but that’s just a Coincidence…..then of course War happens years down the line and when Megatron is about to deliver the final blow to Sentinel a flash of Dion appears on the false prime and then he is killed….. Megatron has to live with the conflicted feelings killing her one of her old friends, that became a pawn of the Senate

[melishade]

I'm not much of a shipper, so I'll ask about a relationship that's canon. What are your thoughts on Optimus/Orion and Elita/Ariel?

I think that ship has been sabotaged from the start. Which is unfortunate.

I'm someone who prefers friends to lovers over enemies to lovers. Definitely less baggage, especially if the villain has done some pretty heinous shit that I personally cannot overlook (like ya know, genocide).

But a lot of the stuff that I've seen with ElitaOp is just...kind of upsetting. I mean, in G1, she was already considered a love interest for Optimus when they were Orion and Ariel, but I don't remember her getting much development beyond that. She was just there to attract a girl market so Hasbro could make more toys.

In TFA, she gets turned into Blackarachnia over a freak accident, which again, is a really interesting take on the character, but not really shipping material. That relationship is friends to enemies.

Other iterations, Elita-1 has died in order to further Optimus Prime's development, which again, not healthy (I unfortunately did this in the AOP Oneshots because I didn't know better and I was a teen in highschool at the time. If I could rewrite that, I would. But I guess it also encapsulates the brutality of war). But don't do that! C'mon!

And in one of the comics, she's just a full-blown psychopath apparently.

What really drive ElitaOp for me is a lot of the fanart I see online. They love each other and also kick ass together. Both are extremely capable fighters and rely on each other for support when shit gets too heavy, both physically and emotionally. Some of them, they are raising Bumblebee together and it's really adorable. I would have liked to see that more.

I like what Earthspark is doing with Elita-1 and making her and equal to Optimus. I do hope that we see more of her in the future of that series.

[dragongirldg]

Trying to design is hard. Muh, whatever.

I might have to start with a color pallet.

[karlyanalora]

We get more backstory, more G1 cameos, and a plot twist! Behold, the brief history of Orion Pax and Megatron and the birth of a movement.

[squidthesquidd]

*scratches at window cutely* any lore of pre-war Cybertron pls :3 💫💫

teehee :3 well… every since watching tfone my ideas have changed a bit, but most of my pre-war lore is a bunch of my favorite bits and pieces from other continuities! (also all bots have t-cogs)

as for characters, the ones I have the most ideas for pre-war are Optimus, Elita, Megatron, and ratchet! Optimus, elita, and megs were of course: Orion pax, Ariel, and D-16 (ratchet was always ratchet lol)

Orions job was to transport energon from the mines to the refineries, so he wasn’t actually in the mines himself, and instead worked around them. he did essentially live with the miners though. I think ive mentioned this before, but his cooling and ventilation systems have never worked properly, so despite his job being very easy for most, it put a lot of strain on him because of how easily he overheated.

Ariel wasn’t a miner herself, she was a mining dump truck, so she just carried away all the unneeded material that was dug up. also!! she used to be yellow instead of pink (tfa elita reference lol) She always followed the rules and did what she was told.. except when it came to orion. her superiors often gave orion a hard time, so she would get in the middle of it, and since she’s huge and great at her job, they could never get rid of her for insubordination. (she was also the only dump truck at the mine she was stationed at so she definitely wasnt expendable)

D-16 worked in the mines just as your typical run of the mill miner. he was great at what he did, buuuuuut he did have a bit of an issue with authority figures. and this pissed off his superiors a lot, so after one particularly heated argument where D and ariel were trying to convince their boss to please let Orion go to a medic cus smoke is literally pouring out of him, D was shipped off to the gladiator ring. His frame was practically remade to twice its original size, and he was dropped off in the fighters barracks. he hated fighting but was unfortunately very good at it, and his fans nicknamed him “megatronus” which he later shortened to Megatron

aaaaaand last but not least, Ratchet! He was created a medic, loved being a medic, and was amazing at what he did. After an incident at the mine where our big three worked at, Ratchet was sent there to treat any wounded he could find.. whhiiich is where he found Orion! Orion wasn’t injured in the incident, but he was severely overheated at the time, and Ratchet saw this chronically ill little guy and immediately decided he just had to help him. Ratchet got permission to bring Orion back with him to run some tests, aaand it turned out that if orions temperature increased anymore he was literally going to explode and die! but ratchet was able to stabilize him 👍 yaaaay. after that, Ratchet would often be at the mines where orion stayed so he could do daily checkups on him and to keep him from going offline. and of course they became besties lol

as for society and governemntttt,,, the functionist system was very much in play (if you were created with a certain alt-mode, that dictates your entire life) i think the aligned continuity is closest to what im going for with.

tbh i dont have it super fleshed but i’ll be working on it 👍👍💥

[in1-nutshell]

Hi, is it okay to request in Transformers Earthspark?

so since we have a twin sister for TFA Elita-1, is it okay to have a twin sister for TFE Elita-1?

Buddy as the TFE Elita's twin sis.

TFE Elita's twin sis has the different/opposite of Elita, like Buddy's meek/shy, pacifist (yet has passive-aggressiveness), nurse, and/or mom friend. Or similar to Disney Belle from Beauty and the Beast.

"Buddy" is not their original name, used to be named "A-2 or E-2".

With Optimus (Orion Pax), Megatron(us or D-16), and Elita (Ariel) from their Pre-war times. You can put romance if you like

You can add this idea/s if you like:

takes place on pre-war Cybertron

TFE Elita's twin becomes techno-organic (like TFA Elita's (twin) ), or something else that is somehow related to Quintus Prime (something like, Quintus left his homeworld, using his Emberstone to seed life across the galaxy. Let's say there's an unknown/undiscovered planet related to Quintus Prime, and somehow Elita's twin landed/crashed/stranded on this planet), or not

then something happens to Elita's twin, became a missing/'dead' bot, she lost contact with her sis and friends and/or Cybertron. Later, she's found by the Decepticons, and she joins the cons, still has the same personality, also she didn't know there's a Bots Vs. Cons war happen before her missing

become a missing con, again, during the (nearly end) war on Earth, and only Megatron knows about it (ex. He and Elita's twin had a secret meet and he somehow found a stasis pod and hid her (in Witwicky near the Terran cave), or other ideas of your own)

And I'm stopping here for now since this long request, i'm putting the part two of this, and I'm so sorry if it's too much/been making too many requests

Thank you so much and also stay safe and healthy!

This... this is good.

A chance on writing Elita Ones's twin sister in a different way?

Count me in!

Friendly reminder this has nothing to do with TFA twin sister

Hope you enjoy!

Elita One's twin sister pre war backstory

SFW, Platonic, Familial, Mention of injury, Angst, Cybertronain reader

TFE

Buddy and Elita were the best of sisters.

But they weren’t always known as Buddy or Elita One.

Before the war, Elita One was known as Ariel.

Buddy’s original name was E-2.

Ariel was the more outgoing twin who always tried to get her twin to go outside of her comfort zone and to make more friends.

E-2 on the other hand was much quieter than Ariel, still held a strong presence with her.

Ariel was the one who introduced her to Orion Pax and D-16.

“E, this is Orion and D-16. Guys this is my twin E-2.”--Ariel

Orion waves at E-2 with a warm smile on his face.

E-2, who was partially hiding behind Ariel, waves back shyly.

Ariel gently pushes her forward at D-16.

D-16 smiles at E-2.

E-2 smiles back.

“Hi.”—E-2

“Hello.”—D-16

Ariel swings both of her arms around them all.

“I think this is the start of a beautiful friendship.”--Airel

E-2 gives them all a shy smile.

The four of them were a nearly inseparable group.

Orion and E-2 got along well, looking after Airel and D-16.

The two often had data pads they exchanged every other cycle and little chat about what they were about.

They were also the second voice of reason for Ariel and D-16 when they thought of activities or thoughts.

Ariel and D-16 looking at the tall drop off towers.

“I wonder what would happen if we went up there…”--Airel

“And what if we jumped off?”—D-16

“Exactly!”--Ariel

“Or!”--Orion

“And just hear us out, we DON’T jump off of the building, hmm?”—E-2

“We’ll be fine E.”--Ariel

“Ariel, just because I’m close to becoming an actual nurse doesn’t give you and 16 a free pass into a hospital.”—E-2

“Of course not, we have you and Orion for that.”—D-16

“D-16, you and I know that Orion is terrible at patch work jobs. Seriously just ask Ratchet.”—E-2

“Hey! I’m not that bad.”--Orion

“You fainted when you saw D-16’s injured servo. You’re not ready for any patch work.”—E-2

D-16 and E-2 got along like a house on fire.

Both wanting a better change for Cybertron, they found many things they could agree on.

Often D-16 would come to E-2 for help on his upcoming speeches and practice in front of her.

E-2, Ariel and Orion often went to D-16, now named Megatron, speeches about change on Cybertron.

The group could agree that changes needed to be made, but Buddy thought that maybe a more peaceful approach would be in the best interest of the bots.

This would soon cause a rift between the groups as Ariel backed Megatron’s bit forceful approach while Orion tried to play mediator.

It was around this time another one of E-2’s closest friends had offered her a chance to go on an expeditionary trip.

It was just to look at some planets then return to Cybertron.

Out of pure spite, E-2 agreed to go.

Anyways, he needed a medic with him in case something bad happened and E-2 had just finished with her tests and licenses.

“I’m sorry, you’re what?!”--Ariel

“Ariel calm down, I’m just going on a quick trip and I’ll be back in a couple of weeks. Two months the most.”—E-2

“Why can’t he just go by himself? Doesn’t he have a lab partner?”--Ariel

“His lab partner had something going on at the last minute and couldn’t go. Anyways he needs a medic in case something goes wrong.”—E-2

Ariel had a frustrated look on her face and crossed her arms.

Orion looked at E-2.

“When will you be leaving? The docking ports are notorious for taking long time to—”--Orion

“I’m leaving tomorrow.”—E-2

“…”--Everyone

“YOU’RE WHAT?!”—Ariel and Megatron

E-2 flinches at the loud noise.

“How can you leave at a time like this?! We need as many bots on our side as possible! Not galivanting through space like its some sort of vacation!”--Megatron

Buddy feels her servos tighten as her anger rises.

“This is not some sort of vacation Megatron. I’m being a good friend—”—E-2

“If you were a good friend then you would stay here!”--Megatron

E-2 takes a step forward, surprising all three bots.

“And if I don’t?”—E-2

Megatron angrily takes a step forward almost menacingly.

“Do you want to find out E-2?”--Megatron

E-2 clenches her servos and walks away.

“And where are you going coward!”—Megatron

E-2 turns on her pedes fast and angry.

“I’m going before I say anything that I might regret!”—E--2

E-2 storms off into the night.

Orion looks at his friends.

“Ariel?”--Orion

Ariel looks a bit conflicted.

“…She should be supporting the movement Orion.”--Ariel

Orion looks appalled before starting to walk in E-2’s direction.

“Orion? Where are you going?”--Ariel

“To check on your twin sister.”--Orion

E-2 was honestly still surprised to see them all at the gates for the launch.

Buddy said her goodbyes in hugs.

Orion hugged her tightly and wished her the best.

Ariel gave a halfhearted hug.

Buddy tried to hug Megatron, but he moved away.

Hurt, Buddy waved goodbye instead.

Megatron just huffed despite Ariel slightly jabbing his side.

Buddy grabbed her kits and began walking to the front of the door to wait for her friend.

Her friend came rushing in, giving her a hug, and thanking her for wanting to join.

“You’re a life saver E! Star had something wrong with his tanks and—”

“Is that him?”—E-2

E-2 sees a seeker lingering around the drop off point not too far from where her friends and family were.

“Yeah, that’s him. He wanted to see how the launch went.”

E-2 smiles at the seeker and waves at him.

The seeker looks a bit shocked but waves back.

“Are you ready to go?”

He stretches his servo for E-2 to grab.

She does looking up at her friend.

“Lead the way Skyfire.”—E-2

They made their way into the security area before reaching their pods and shooting into the starry sky.

None of them knew it was going to be the last time they were going to see each other.

The two came across the planet Skyfire had been raving about.

It was a smaller planet splashed green and blue.

It looked like a peaceful world.

Skyfire wanted a closer look at the planet.

E-2 was a bit hesitant, but she followed her friend downward.

Neither were expecting the harsh jet streams to be so strong.

E-2 felt everything about this being a bad omen and tried to radio in Skyfire to start getting out of the area.

Skyfire reported that his pods navigation systems weren’t responding.

E-2 tried to fly closer to Skyfire’s pod in attempts to attach a cord to get him out when her pod suddenly went dark and dropped.

E-2 screamed in terror as she plummeted to the planet below.

Skyfire managed to get out of his pod and managed to get to E-2’s pod opening it and dragging her out.

He tried to fly with her out of the Jetstream and back into space, but the winds proved too cold and strong.

Next thing E-2 realized was that she was falling again while the stream carried a screaming Skyfire far away.

She tumbled onto the cold ground below and rolled into a hole in the ground.

With all her tumbling, she accidentally caused a cave in.

E-2 hit her helm against a boulder before landing in a pool of cold water.

Her helm was bleeding profusely as she tried to stand up.

Trying to get up, she noticed a strange rock in the center of the cave and a small organic creature on her armor.

She didn’t notice the rock glowing until it was too late.

Her entire frame felt like it was on fire, screaming in pain.

When it was over, she fell backwards into the cool water, slowly closing her optics from the pain.

The last thing she thought about was Ariel, Orion and Megatron.

They were probably thinking she was going to come back home any day now.

She wanted to say sorry to them…

Sorry that she wasn’t coming back home…

…

Back on Cybertron the life signals on the pods had turned dark.

The station had called Orion, Areil, Starscream and Megatron to tell them about the freak accident.

Most likely faulty wiring on the pods.

Either way, none of the passengers survived.

Everyone was in shock.

Ariel then started to sob horribly.

Orion immediately came to her aid hugging her tightly trying to keep his own tears at bay.

Megatron just stood there in shock.

Starscream demanded to know whose fault this was.

He nearly clawed at the poor bot across the table if Megatron hadn’t grabbed him back.

He held Starscream noticing the shakiness of both of their frames.

There was nothing they could do now.

One of the biggest regrets Megatron had in his entire life was not hugging Buddy that day or trying harder to make her stay.

Elita regretted not being able to stop her twin from leaving and not saying love you one last time.

Orion regretted not going with her.

Maybe he could have done something to help with the faulty wiring or something.

They weren’t going to see her again, not until it was their time to go to the Allspark.

Until then… till all are one.

[elfdragon12]

It would make sense if elita was her original self Ariel and to have Dion in the movie. But I can see where it could confuse folks who aren’t familiar with the one of the original origin story of Optimus, elita-1 and Ultra magnus. Still with the new trailer we did see some more familiar faces although I’m a little annoyed we saw more cons than bots. I also agree the BB shouldn’t be in this movie or if he did it would make more sense to show up at the end since BB is supposed to be a kid( young sidekick role to appear to the younger kids. In fact in almost every media it describes BB was one of the last born cybertronion since the war between the bots and the cons began. So yeah I agree that having another bot or Dion would be better than BB for this type of movie. Although if 5he movie ends with BB losing his voice, I’m walking out.

I don't see how whether she's called Elita-1 or Ariel really affects how much sense it makes to include Dion. This movie is intended to introduce the origin story, so knowledge of the original origin story shouldn't be necessary to understand this movie (I assume you mean Megatron because Ultra Magnus doesn't really have an "original" origin story, at most, there's a suggestion of a birth day). Dion is the character that makes the most sense to put there.

TFOne Bumblebee doesn't really act like other Bumblebees either (except perhaps TFA Bee), so his being written into the movie is truly just for marketing.

I've seen people point out Jazz and Wheeljack in background shots, but, yeah, the trailer focuses on the same Decepticons we've seen again and again and again and again and again.

I mean, the trailers looks promising. I'm just getting tired of seeing Bumblebee everywhere.

[theangrycomet-art]

the Sillays

I love these women so much

for a rough idea of everyone’s ages/generations: Elita, Chromia, and Moonracer were molded post-war while the other’s were during, or in Lancer’s case Pre

Lancer is the oldest at about Ultra Magnus’ age,

Greenlight is the same generation as Arcee and Ratchet (older than Arcee younger than Ratchet). She was a draft dodger that got caught and recruited into weapons development.

Novastar is actually the same model year as Prowl; in the last generation to at the tail end of the Great War.

Elita Prime is in Optimus/Sentinel/Blackarachnia’s generation though she’s a bit older (she would have been the equivalent of the grade above them in the academy)

Chromia is Blurr and Cliffjumper’s age: they were that in-between generation between Optimus/Sentinel’s and Bumblebee/Bulkheads

Moonracer just barely makes the cutoff for Chromia’s generation- and is the youngest both of her team and her model year

Random notes

Blackarachnia: Catwoman, Ariel/Elita Prime: Wonderwoman

Chromia has a habit of doodling in the margins of her notes, despite her insistence on orderly note keeping

Lancer has (unwilling) undergone several frame operations, mostly during the peak of war at orders of her superiors. Only recently has she been able to start modding her self back. Greenlight’s helping her with that.

Due to her overcharged spark, Moonracer is prone to generating more energy than her frame can handle. This can cause her to automatically go into stasis mode to preserve her processors, so it’s not uncommon for her to pass out in random places when she holds still for too long

COMMISSIONS OPEN

[hercarisntyours]

elita one is a very cool character in my opinion

[dgknightblue]

My headcanons for TFA:

Optimus She/ her (eventually)

Bumblebee they/ them

Bulkhead he/they/ she

Ratchet he/ him

Sari she/ they

Soundwave he/ they

I forgot about Prowl because he’s dead, but he’s a he/ they.

Sentinel is he/ him (he’s got a lot of hatred for Optimus for various reason one being jealousy, of what you decide).

Ariel/ black Arachnia is she/ they. (From this point on I will only call them Ariel).

Okay here is a funny joke. Optimus having bad taste in mechas but great taste in femmes- he had a phase where he had a crush on Megatron back in the academy. (Optimus isn’t aware they are a she yet, I won’t be saying she until they do).

There are stages of Optimus’ crushes and Sentinel and Ariel are not dealing with that again. They hated having to drag Optimus from the mechas he talked to. They are frustrated at why none of the femmes he liked actually worked out.

Stage one: blunt complements

Ex. You’re pretty.

Stage two: following

Ex. Walking right behind them.

Stage three: offering to help

Ex. I can get it for you!

Stage four: clinging

Ex. Hugs, servo holding

Stage five: Asking for dates

Ex. Do you want to go on a date with me? Only if you want to I mean.

With Sentinel and Ariel blocking Optimus from all possible crushes, they get tired and end up slipping up and he gets his spark broken anyway.

Optimus always crushes on the worst possible bot to have a crush on even if they seem like a nice bot. If he crushes on them, they are not a good idea.

They are always a bad idea.

Doesn’t mean they are a bad partner, just the worst bot to fall in love with.

Crushes tend to fade and he gets over them.

Except when they make him mad.

“Remember Sari if they break your spark, crush them.”

“What?”

“Crush them. Crush their hopes. Crush their dreams. Crush their ambition. Crush their reputation. Ruin their life so they can never feel happiness again. They have to suffer if they think they can mess with you.”

“Understand Sari?”

“Y-yes?”

“Great! Let’s go for a walk, it’s nice outside.”

“Did you guys think we were protecting Optimus? No we were protecting the crushes.”

“But not always. Sometimes we let him run loose.”

“They can’t be helped.”

[knightdgblue]

Ariel (when she was still Black Arachnia) dropped her Decepticon handbook in a Volcano where she was taking a nap. She’s not lying, it wasn’t because it was boring! It was warm okay!

If Shockwave or Lugnut found out they’d lecture her for so long. Unfortunately she forgot to count for Strika, who made her take classes with the earthsparked younglings when she found out.

As well as an older con class for how Decepticon courting works. She tried to run from it since she’s never met a bot or con attracted to her. She figured she was so disfigured and ugly, she’d be single forever.

Not true, well she hasn’t met them, but they are out there. They don’t care she’s half organic, that just makes her hot to them. Like an ethereal beauty.

They like soft especially the ones with fur, they’d love to hold her servo.

I had the weirdest thought like a spin off of the Soap Opera AU, as they are prone to do, in which Starscream (Star Vos), a beautiful retired starlit in this, has lost her scientific professor husband in a tragic artic boating accident and retired to Holy Cove to use her biology degree and raise her triplets Sunny (Sunstorm), Farrah (Pharma), and Silvia (Slipstream) only to meet charming dock worker Orion who is her charter boat driver and they slowly grow closer as she finds out he is staying working on the docks to help raise his sister Ariel rather than go to college and he is doing it on the weekends to become an archivist and work at the nearby hand wave.

He's great with kids and they fall in love only for her to become pregnant with the twins Roderick "Roddy" (Hot Rod) and Theo (Thunderclash). They are getting ready to marry after several dramatic reveals such as Star inheriting money from her estranged family who really loved her after all and Orion's childhood guardian actually being the leader of a cult that ran under the town and wanted to sacrifice him and Ariel (13) running off to meet her online boyfriend Shawn (Sentinel TFA) in New York only to get her heart broken.

As they are saying "I do" Sven (Skyfire) appears and it turns out he'd survived but had amnesia and saw her on the news and remembered her.

Cue all the drama.

What none of them know is this is not Sven but rather his evil twin brother Johann (Jetfire Netflix Trilogy).

Though amateur sleuths and Sky (Skywarp) and TC (Thundercracker), Star's best friends and, respectively, resident party girl and her shy bookish girlfriend who is writing a mystery series based off the town, find out the truth.

Ohhh. My god.

This is so much. There is- there is so much here

I don't even know where to start. I feel like I just speedran the 5 stages of grief. Is this why people watch soap operas? For the chaotic ups and downs? Holy shit this was an experience
