Random AU idea that mashes my two favorite (not bayverse really, but they both have some level more significance to me than the others) Transformers continuities.

It would be a sort of Bayverse x Prime crossover.

This idea came about when I was thinking about how Team Prime ended up on Earth and how they found each other. Surely it wasn't like Magnus and Smokescreen every time. I imagine that Optimus and Ratchet might have landed together, maybe even with Bulkhead, and Arcee and Cliff on their own. But I'm not sure about Bee. I mean, I guess they all could have landed together, but that's no fun.

ANYWAY! The AU makes use of both sparkling Bumblebee, and the wonderful Witwicky family of the Bayverse.

The AU starts long before the events of Prime, before the team is together, or perhaps even before they're on Earth. Sparkling Bee crashes somewhere in California, close enough to where a young (think preteen, possibly younger) Sam regularly goes to explore. A bit further away from the city, or in an overgrown park or something.

Sam's out messing around and comes across this weird pod thing. Inside is a large lump of yellow metal all curled in on itself. He pokes it and- Boom! Bee pops his cute little head out of the ball he'd curled himself into.

Sam promptly adopts the alien he found and sneaks Bee home. His parents eventually find out, obviously, but Sam is very attatched to his robot buddy. And Bee makes a very convincing argument for staying by being the cutest thing out there.

So he stays. Large robot son would obviously draw attention, so Ron and Judy choose to move their family to the middle of the Nevada desert. Getting a new house means they can look for one where Bee can be more comfortable, rather than staying in the garage. (He's not all that big, being really young, but he's curious, fidgety, and cuddly, the more space for him in the actual house the better)

Years pass, Sam goes to high school. Sophomore year, there's an exchange student; Miko Nadaki (I'm tempted to send Carly here too.) But I'm getting ahead of myself. There's a three year period where both factions are on Earth without any conflict. If I'm correct, anyway. But that's where we are.

Bumblebee was too young to have any insignia, so the Witwickys wouldn't make any sudden connection seeing all the new vehicles around town.

But the Cons and Bots are in Jasper. Which means it's only a matter of time before one faction or another finds out about the sparkling.

The Autobots find the family first. Fowler has to talk to them, and they end up meeting Team Prime. Bee is very obviously attatched to his human family, so they get to stick around.

Bumblebee now has a Cybertronian influence as well as a human one. He has the entirety of Team Prime doting on him. Maybe more if I want to bring in a couple more Bayverse folk. (I say Bayverse, but it's just my favorite guys that happen to appear there as well. Sideswipe, Ironhide, Elita, and Chromia. Sunstreaker as well if I add them all, because everyone else has separated the twins but I'll be damned if I do it too.)

So the Witwickys have the next couple of years to get familiarized with the Autobots and the Omega Outpost. And here's where our story begins. Well, the familiar part, anyway. The events of Prime start happening.. Three new humans in the base AND! The Decepticons are back.

Don't know how exactly the AU would progress from there, considering Cliff would still die and the Bots are down a Bumblebee. I suppose if I added more Bots, it wouldn't be as much of a problem. It would also allow me to send Sunstreaker to be the one to deal with MECH because Bee's a baby.

Ignore the half-assed background, it’s not actually supposed to Be the background, I just wanted to post this in case I never finish the second half (maglor)

I have thoughts about them. Many thoughts.
