Also I remembered that I hadn't yet talked about Bonnie's deal in the killing game, despite him being one of the survivors, so I might as well talk about it now.
The thing about Bonnie is that he kind of shuts off a lot from the rest of the group. While the others all form their own little cliques, he's more on the distrustful side, and tends to keep to himself so as to not make himself a possible target- he's already been a target for bullies most of his life, he'd rather not become a target for murderers now. Despite that, he does end up making two friends over the course of the killing game: Bon and Fox. Both of which are somewhat similar to how it happened in canon.
With Bon, they start hanging out pretty early on since Bonnie is a hobbyist guitar player, and he asks Bon to give him some advice. At which Bon figures out that Bonnie is actually, uh, way too advanced to be called a hobbyist. Advanced enough to threaten his status as the Ultimate Guitarist player, with just how good he is (Bonnie jokes that he got that way from playing so much Guitar Hero. Bon isn't amused). They form a rivalry from then on, frequently spending time together practicing and making up stupid challenges to one up each other. Bonnie teaches Bon how to be better at videogames in return, since he sucks at most of them. I'm keeping Bon's crush on Bonnie, but I'm not sure if it'll be requited or not...
With Fox it comes down mostly to them having a similar sense of humor, and a small degree of necessity- Bonnie knows his chances of living all the way to the end are low, so he's hoping that sticking next to the tallest and strongest guy in the class will keep him safe. Meanwhile, Fox is not really all that observant or smart, so he's banking on Bonnie keeping an eye out for any trouble or anything that might later be useful for a trial. A brains and brawn duo, you could say.
Of course, all this means that when Fox kills Bon on Chapter 4, he... Doesn't take it very well. He's already been pulling away from the group more and more as the tensions rise, and this becomes his final straw- because for the entirety of Chapter 5, Bonnie is locked in his room. He raided the kitchen the night of the trial to stock his room full of snacks, and is planning on staying there for as long as needed. Mostly, he's just lost faith in the group, and is fully expecting them to continue killing each other until the game ends because only two players remain. The only time he leaves his room is for the next class trial, since attendance is mandatory... And boy does that trial not give him much hope for the future.
#FHS: Farewell Despair Highschool#I don't have the end of his arc fully planned out though#I'm thinking that he stays for a bit in the afternath of the trial as everyone talks a little#and the others show some concern for him (even meg. who isn't really nice to him most of the time)#he sees the way freddy and usagi and meg are sticking together and while he still thinks it'll end with them killing each other#he's hoping to be proven wrong#also he'd probably be a big part of the chapter 6 investigation and trial since it's a virtual world... and he's a gamet#so maybe I could use some of the discoveries there to expand on his character? probably?#idk#as an aside- if I ever do sit down and write fte for this au#I'd want to make a fte for bonnie during chapter 5. with freddy talking to him from the other side of the door#usually when you can't see a character in-game you can't interact with them#but I think the idea is too interesting to not explore

What would you like to see in Earthspark? Since there no confirmed plot I hope they direct the new focus to suspicion of Cybertron's condition and whether some of the Cybers would like to go back home even doe the war there may still be going on or the planet may be struggling
Also I I realised Shockwave wanted to pull of a TFP Megatron with the army from Cybertron dilemma but instead it was ethical in that he used the allspark and not space cocaine form satan
I would adore it if we got Jazz in Earthspark
Honestly I want to see more of Nightshade, hell maybe more characters who are nonbinary because I am a simple enby and it just. Matters so much to me that there are nonbinary characters in transformers and I'm really hoping that Nighty doesn't get pushed to the side somehow.
The Quintessonsssss. The connection with the Emberstone and Quintus Prime in specific makes me think we're gonna see them in the future
I'm hoping to see Megatron actively working on being better. Sure, he's reformed now. Sure. But if this show wants to be serious, he's going to have a lot of meaningful apologies and trying to honestly make amends and accepting the situations where he will not be forgiven.
I'd loveeee it if we get more information on Megatron's backstory, especially where it concerns how he met Dot and how he left the decepticons. There's a significant story there, and I feel like it includes the Battle of the Bay. That there is a significant event I hope isn't ignored, because not only was it the event that took Mandroid's arm and Dot's leg, but I'm just getting the feeling it's greatly important.
I'm hoping to see more of Tarantulas!! He's different than his IDW or BW appearances, and I feel like there are serious reasons why. I love his personality and his connection to Nightshade, and so much about him.
I neeeeed to know more about Earthspark Ratchet, and why he isn't here.
Is he in hiding? Is he dead? Did he half-defect and is patching up decepticons (my favorite answer, but the others are also interesting)? If he was stashed away in their base somewhere, they would've brought him in several times by now. Something's up with him.
Now that I realize it, Jazz might make a good additional mentor for Thrash. That'd be interesting.
I want to know more about what happened with Shockwave between the time where they hauled him into GHOST and when they met him for the second time under the mind control chip. Because I feel like shit went down.
More of the decepticons just... Existing outside of battle. Moments to show they aren't just The Bad Guys™️, but people being people, just like our main cast. We see a nice lot of this but I want to see more, and I feel like it'd be interesting if we saw the much more vulnerable emotions to them (such as more on Starscream's trauma, how Soundwave feels Megatron is a traitor, Shockwave not knowing what comes next for him)
The effects of the final battle. There are going to be so many consequences to that, and while I feel like there's gonna be a time skip in between seasons I trust at earthspark will want to discuss what happens next with GHOST without agent Croft or Mandroid, and the effects the trauma will have on the mecha (ESPECIALLY SO our main three in command, Megs Lita and Oppy. Especially especially especially Megatron)
#for a series about hope i have a lot of hope for it#I'm aware it isn't perfect but is any of the transformers franchise?#maccadam#transformers#transformers earthspark#transformers earthspark spoilers#tfe spoilers#earthspark spoilers#lotsa characters#i hope this is coherent
