More warlord Twitch

Wheeljack joins her but he feels guilty about it the entire time. It gets worse when Bulkhead shows up. I'd actually like switch swindle to the autobots 2.0 and give Arcee to the cons 2.0. I can see Arcee sympathizing with Twitch and image a team of Arcee Skywarp and Novastorm

Drift and Ratchet are with the bots 2.0

I'm not sure where Shockwave lands but I'm leaning cons 2.0 but this version of the cons is so emotionally set I can see him finding illogical and joing the bots 2.0 but also tiny more aggressive Megatron why wouldn't he join the cons 2.0

Thrash and Twitchs fights have to be interesting. Between arguments, just yelling at eachother and their actual fights these two are forces to be reckoned with

🎶Changing sides🎶

Honestly Wheeljack and Bulkhead's dynamic would be so slightly different in such a fun way in an earthspark situation, especially considering how tfe Jackie fits more with the scientist depiction of him than tfp Wheeljack does

I can absolutely see Arcee sympathizing with Twitch too!!

Drift and Ratty yessss, I am imagining Drift with yellow optics and fangs because I can.

The idea of Shockwave being conflicted would be so interesting because last I checked, he was not on good terms with Megs in Earthspark (because the whole "Megatron betrayed us" stuff). And, from what I can see, I greatly HC that shit went down during his time with GHOST (thus why his attitude changes so much from his first appearance to his second one. Also because there is angst to be had there), so he's definitely not the same mech as he was with the og cons. Mmmnm but the idea of him going to the cons 2.0 and contributing to the future warcrimes. Mmnn or the angst of him fighting against Soundwave.

Honestly part of the question is "just how much like the og factions are the new factions??", How much of it is parallels and how much of it changes based on the different conditions set for the second war?

Yepp!!

There is so much volatile emotion between Warlord!Twitch and Thrash Prime going on, and part of me wants to say both think they're going to get through to the other and if they'd just listen to their side—
