Yeah, Smokescreen and Jackpot are both on the Lost Light. :/ Otherwise, they would be all up in my seedy atmosphere of graft, corruption, bribery, and gambling. I am also annoyed that all the Micromasters got eaten, because Swindler the Micromaster! He's not Swindle, but they could hang out! Big Daddy! Fixit! ;_;

- Misfire: Let's see, fairly decent Decepticon who is a bit aggressive. He's probably average Joe enough that he wouldn't end up needing a trial, so he probably walks. I don't think he's impressive enough for Starscream to try to recruit him too heavily, but I think he'd naturally gravitate towards Starscream's group out of flier solidarity, if nothing else. I could see him being considered one of the better behaved Decepticons by law enforcement and him perhaps doing some light informant work. I'm not sure gangs would want him. Parts thieves would probably leave him alone because no one wants aim as bad as his. Or, use him to illustrate the beginnings of an untouchable caste?

- Firestar: She isn't Japanese! >| Actually, I'd probably do an arson issue or so and have her show up in it along Inferno and some other rescue type people, and then maybe it would turn out not to be arson at all but a volcano that is very slowly starting to erupt, because Cybertron hates them. Then Firestar fights the volcano, because she does that.

- Silverbolt: Well, he's definitely not trying to murder bomb-accident victims in the hospital. I might have the Autobot fliers rally around him, more than just his Aerialbots, and as mentioned above, I'd have Starscream heavily try to recruit Silverbolt. Looking at his wiki page, he was in law enforcement before the war! I would do something with that. Probably him calling Prowl out on something egregious.

I would like to hear more about this.

Prowl needs to be called out, especially by people who can fling lightning around and are amassing their own flock of followers. (Prowl probably doesn't like that.)

No non-Japanese ladies? D:

Yay, fighting the volcano!

There's probably going to be a scramble for power. Those who can get it are going to take as much as they can, which won't leave much for everyone else. Misfire was barely even useful as a soldier. As a civilian, he has no redeeming talents. It would be easy to see him ending up at the bottom of the pile, consigned to doing the things no one else wants to do, like garbage disposal duty and trawling sewers, which would be a horrible fate for a jet. (This will, of course, breed resentment. Hopefully someone canny will notice the disgruntled underclass before Megatron 2.0 arises.)

Yeah, Prowl is plotting so many assassinations, you don't even know. Silverbolt also helped save Blaster in IDW, so heck, maybe Silverbolt can be doing stuff with Blaster after the war. Entertaining the masses!

I am just being silly. Non-Japanese ladies are fine. :)
