I love the idea that, whenever a Cybertronian space-faring vessel lands or docks within a predominantly non-Cybertronian space station or port, that it's required that they either confirm or deny whether their vessel is sentient or not before being permitted to land.

1. For proper accommodation and clarification, along with the chance for communication between the vessel and crews working the station/port.

2. Because there has been... incidents... incidents that have led to the requirement of the above reasons.

#an irate dreadnought with a brain and very big feelings could wreak all sorts of havoc on an unprepared station unfortunately #also. itd be a bit shocking to be just some guy working the fuel station. idly complimenting a shiny cruiser only for it to say 'thanks <3'#transformers #maccadam #tf idw #tf worldbuilding #???#i mean. yeah. its technically world building. we dont see much of that kinda stuff #but im sure as hell thinking about it rn #i love wacky sci fi worldbuilding. theres not enough of it on a broader galactic scale in tf sometimes #like. they mention other aliens and hubs in a few continuities i think. but then they only do so much with it #outside of crossovers ig #idk. i just like thinking of how beings other than humans perceive cybertronians and the colonists #like. they're new to humans. usually. but theyve had other alien neighbors for millions of years #transformers surely are quite talked about on a broader galactic scale. and obv taken into consideration either for good or bad #they're nigh immortal. they're constantly fighting each other and dying. they're peacekeepers. they're warlords. they're big. they're small #they're fucking weird. and somehow end up all over the place #they hate your kind. they love your kind. they think you're disgusting. they're offering to be your car #how many citizens of their galaxy nervously attempt to politely ask a vehicle if its alive or not on a daily bases in popular hubs/stations #its so funny to me #also. thinking about fic stuff relating to idw1. and like. all the background aliens and their factions fascinate me a bit. its fun inspo #mtmte #lost light #nearly forgot those. since other aliens and factions are featured in them a bit #slowly getting through robots in disguise rn. and all the nail stuff got me thinking about neutrals finding homes amongst other aliens #also like. some of the darker stuff thats mentioned about cybertronians being sold or indentured. like. hows that viewed broadly?
