#earthspark AU

[cityzenshark]

Twitch & Thrash are excited about something. The feeling emits to the triplets who are more confused than amazed.

Hashtag is itching to open an encyclopedia/google to know what exactly that "amazing thing" is.

Nightshade observes the "amazing thing", taking mental notes on its design and figuring out why the twins found it "amazing".

Jawbreaker is a little scared of it. What's so fascinating about a thing that looks almost the same as the spiderbots from that mad man with the giant robot arm?

Thus begins Twitch & Thrash's journey of being the older siblings to the three Terrans who are not themselves.

Babysitting Shenanigans Part 2: Piston gets rowdy at Hot Rod's house!

GALE ASK

Can she fly in bot mode?

Why did she pick a pigeon mode? How large is her pigeon mode? Did she have a Cybertronian alt mode prior to it?

How does she feel about bots insulting bird-formers by calling them "pigeon"? (Example: Megatron calling Laserbeak "pigeon"; Aftermath calling Nightshade "pigeon")

gale explained!! But with a bunch of pictures

For question #1

In her design her wings art not connected to her back or other parts of the body would help her fly smoothly, infact her wings are only connected until it reaches her elbow on each arm! The feathers that go underneath are connected to the top ones with a thin layer of skin making it come across as a full arm of feathers.

For her flight to come across as safe she would need to have her arms open at all times, that means there will be a constant smooth flight but the issue is her arms will easily tire as its up in the air + holding her bodyweight up. So basically your getting approached by a t posing gale.

If looking at her concept design the feathers are connected to the back meaning she can fly like many other bots like airazor. Her wings are built for the purpose of flight meaning that this will lead to a safe and comfortable flight.

Question #2

Yes! Back on cybetron her alt mode was just a cybertrionian species of pigeon that used to be found on the surface but became extinct during the war due to their habitat being destroyed. She had a more mature look to represent how children have to 'grow up fast and be mature' when just once a bot deemed she's old enough threw her into the war. This caused her to have a very bad mental state after the war, her new alt mode representing how she finally gets to be more childlike and have a childhood (she's just a fluffy teen pigeon now)

For her alt mode she picked it due to how European and more wealthy countries view pigeons. How something once so loved and adored was eventually thrown out and seen as a pest. All you see now in places where pigeons have been tossed aside are fake rumours with how they are 'diseased' and 'filthy', the same way alot of people view disabled people. She was harassed by humans more for being disabled and not for being a cool robot alien.

+ her height compared to a 6ft human. Her alt mode in tfa is around double the size of her regular one.

Question #3

At first she would embrace it as she is an absolute pigeon lover, her family is just pigeons!! Amorino being the main reason why she chose her alt mode to match his. She wouldn't see pigeon as an insult as that's what she is, a pigeon. Infact she takes it as a chance to tell people all about the cultures with pigeons and debunking the rumours.

After a couple of times It begins getting boring and irritating because she does find out they are insulting her and when she is nieve enough to think it was a compliment gave other bots a reason to bully her. She tries ignoring it but sometimes she may hit the bot or argue back.

Through the power of dimensional travel, I WILL make both KOBD and Breakbee coexist.

Here’s my idea (not sure if I’m going to write it as a fanfic, but I like it enough to share):

During a space/groundbridge incident, TFP Knockout and Breakdown from another dimension are pulled into Earthspark. They soon flee after seeing the sight of so many Autobots

Eventually though, the Maltos + Megatron (since they are “Decepticons”, they think they might listen to Megatron) track them down and explain they just want to send them home. But surprise… it turns out Knockout and Breakdown actually really like the ES dimension even more than their own.

They were already on the run from the Decepticons in their own world after Breakdown nearly died, they both already like earth and don’t mind staying, and they find the idea of being able to actually make a life outside of war appealing. Since medics are desperately needed, even with the few remaining still working, they are allowed to stay in Witwicky and even give medical help with the kids when needed.

Ideas!

they are their usual selves with everyone else, but when they hear about the Terrans they go absolutely soft. They’re the rich aunties now, and will not be hearing otherwise (this includes Mo and Robby too, once they find out they’re family.)

They get along with Alex and Dot well, since they genuinely care for the kids and just want a life outside of war. (Breakdown admits they did awful things at some point, expecting the humans to recoil, but Dot says “My best friend is Megatron, I know many Cons who made mistakes. But everyone deserves their second chance.”)

Knockout notices ES Bee has been looking at him weird, sees ES Breakdown and Bee together for five minutes, and goes “I’m gonna set them up”. This breakdown deserves a happy relationship too, and Knockout can see how close ES Breakdown is with Bee since he’s already married his own Breakdown, so he ends up giving bee the perfect advice to finally confess. Or he messes with him, 50/50 really.

TFP Breakdown is the best babysitter when Bee is away, since he actually knows how to handle younglings very well. ES Breakdown sees this as competition for HIS Bee, and there’s a lot of silly shenanigans around it until TFP BD goes “pfft, I already got a conjunx, and I’m already with someone wayyy above your Bee”

This is how the Terrans learn what a conjunx is, and react the same way most kids do to learning what marriage is (curious but also going “ew! Kissing!”)

Knockout isn’t a great babysitter because he spoils the kids rotten. He needs Breakdown supervision at least so the kids don’t gain an extra pound from sweets lol

Knockout and Breakdown stay in Witwicky because it’s a nice change of scenery, and because they need to be under the supervision of Autobots until they can be fully trusted. They do sneak off for dates sometimes, but over time the bots just get used to it

At some point TFP KOBD and Breakbee go on a double date on a racing track. ES Breakdown is horrified to learn his alternate is slow as fuck. Luckily Knockout can match them for speed, and have a good time with TFP Breakdown on the sidelines offering coolant to the racers (and kisses for good luck for his Conjunx).

Basically this is a wish fulfillment au where Knockout and Breakdown can live happily while in the more wholesome Earthspark universe (until the horrors come for the Terrans again)

Feel free to add extra ideas for this AU :3

How have I never shared my earthspark Overlord!?

He's a silly "redeemed villain" type guy. He's not the wholesome kind like Megatron though, he's kind of crazy.

If anyone has watched httyd: race to the edge, he's like dagger in his redemption. Like- still really crazy and violent but uses meditation and silly mantras to stay calm. I love him.

Something something Earthspark au

“Did that jet just save me?” He didn’t even see you. Bumblebee is probably there within seconds, wondering what just happened and if Twitch is okay.

So, basically all of the Decepticons are running free. This is due to G.H.O.S.T facing so many power outages. Just, just so many. Shockwave is the leader, and he’s his evil self.

Shockwave is ordering the Decepticons to just destroy everything from G.H.O.S.T. No matter what.

Only Starscream calls Shockwave “Lord”. It’s because Shockwave knows Starscream is a cowardly traitor.

Originally I was going to have Bumblebee jump Starscream, but I didn’t feel like drawing that.

This au needs a name. But I don’t have the brains for one right now. This took me ten hours to draw.

Oh boy, Twitch doesn’t look like herself. I should really draw her more.

EARTHSPARK SPOILER ART WARNING I have watched the new episodes for Earthspark and the following doodles are VERY spoilery.

You have been warned. ALRIGHT OMG JAWBREAKERS ALTMODE IS A DINOSAUR I LOVE IT AAAAAAAAA

He's shaped for hugging. I love that they got Keith David for Grimlock he did such a good job being Jawbreakers new dad.

Man is Thrash the only one who dosnt have a second dad yet?

Gotta get him some dad time.

Okay MANDROIDS NEW BOD holy shit this dude is SHAPED

Look at this guy he's so SHAPED and GROSS

Park and Sparkbite definetly end up experimented on by this weirdo.

I want Sparkbite and Parks final form to look like this I'm OBSESSED

-but for them its more like a Silas body suit situation with more gross wires.

I can't wait till we meet the Quintessons. I hope thats what Mandroid rant into. He DID have Sharkticon buddies so I don't think thats a bad bet.

and finally OH MY GOD HOLY SHIT

When this bit happened I lost it

I MEAN if that neck rope was pulled just a bit harder ...

Nightshade has joined the chat

[cityzenshark]

Kites | Terrans Around the World

Ice Mirror | Kites | Kindle & Ember | Leaflet | Stardeep | Eggling

Kites is a shy one, but her confidence turn for the worst after she had almost been taken by the Quintessons. Clobber saved her, then mentored her transformation and self-defense, but Clobber couldn't teach Kites the nature of her alt mode: flying. So when Nightshade made appearance, Kites quickly befriends them and gains the confidence to leave her homeland to meet Terratronus. However, her trauma disrupts her once- fluid speech still.

Nightshade: They taught Kites how to fly and to be confident again. They feel as though Kites had been their true kindred spirit all along. The longer Nightshade spends time with her though, a new feeling flutters from within them like a butterfly. They're very glad Robby and Mo could no longer feel their feelings. Unfortunately, their Terran siblings still can... Oh, the embarrassment!

Hashtag: The fear of something about to pounce her at anytime even when she's in a very protected place -- Hashtag knows very well about it. She'd like to play therapist for Kites but it's best to leave it to real professional. Right now, the best she can do, is helping Kites to fix her speech.

wreck-gar!!

Pretty unwell atm so I'm only doing sketches now but wreck-gar needed some loving too! Couldn't just let tm have all the fun and leave this creature alone. This where gale gets the best tips to annoy tm from though! Wreck-gar can get pretty annoying though, very easily to her actually. She just puts up with it or hits them with her cane! Honestly need more info on their personality so I can draw some in character things of them

Huello 👋

I’m c4ssettedeck and I’m making an Earthspark AU called Beasts of Witwicky.

This is basically a swap au, where the terrans are, in a way, swapped and I’m going to be posting everything right here !!

Some art of the terrans + some info about how they get their alt modes below the cut

In the AU, Nightshade and Jawbreaker are the first two Terrans. Instead of sneaking out during the day to get their alt modes, N.S, J.B, Robby and Mo go out during the night to find suitable alt modes - which is when Nightshade gets their alt mode after tripping and accidentally scanning an owl

When they get captured by Mandroid, Jawbreaker gets his alt mode after accidentally stumbling across a framed fossil in the lair.

The four of them get mentored by Cliffjumper.

Hashtag is born when Robby and Mo go back to the Emberstone one time after school, after one of the Mandrones are spotted going in the direction of the cave - which is when Hashtag is born.

Hashtag gets her alt mode in a similar fashion to the original, where she accidentally scans a GHOST van, although this time there’s a bit more shenanigans in store for the Maltos

Once Dot and Megatron are kidnapped, that’s when they go back for the Emberstone again. Twitch and Thrash are then born to help during the cave collapse.

Twitch puts a lot of pressure on herself to get an alt mode after she realises how important it is, so her alt mode episode is similar to ‘Outtakes’ of season 1, except Wheeljack is involved and asks her to test out the drones with him, which is when she chooses her alt mode.

Thrash is the last Terran to get his alt mode. He’d been very unsure whether or not he even wanted an alt mode, until he was captured by GHOST with Swindle, after he found him lurking about nearby. They both, reluctantly, help each other escape GHOST, which also involves Thrash having to help the other Decepticons too. In the end, he eventually needs to get away from GHOST with his own pair of wheels, when he finds a cool bike and scans it for his alt mode
