You know you wanna adopt one...
I haz too many bunnies, yesh. These are some I have which I really don't wanna write that much myself, but also can't seem to get out of my head. *glares at bunnies*
1. Perceptor was sent to Earth for one reason. Since he has experience from Xantium, he’s the only one with the expertise to bring the Ark out of stasis.
2. Ravage gets fed up with the other cassettes antics and seeks refuge - by going to the Ark. Actually, what he did was walk up to Mirage, curl up beside his feet, and dropped into stasis.
3. Ravage goes ballistic when he comes across some kids torturing an old cat. The Autobots aren’t sure what to think of this.
4. Perceptor used to be a gladiator in Kaon. The Twins were the closest things to friends he had back then. Vorns later, the two become intent on protecting him when they end up in the same unit. (I’m thinking that Perceptor wouldn’t have been a good gladiator - he just doesn’t strike me as blood-thirsty enough.)
5. It’s easy to control Perceptor - all you have to do is give him new things to learn as a reward for good behavior. And take away his projects as punishment.
6. Sunstreaker and Sideswipe have an argument. The kind that can’t ever really be completely recovered from.
7. Slag/Beachcomber. (Crack, anyone?)
8. After all the years of being abandoned on the side of the road by Sam, his only real friend, Miles has developed some issues about riding with others. Unsurprisingly, this extends to giant alien robots as well.
9. Mikaela doesn’t understand why Miles is so intent on despising her existence. Sam can’t find it in himself to explain how things seem to the blond. (Because in the beginning of the movie Mikaela was, basically, the stereo-typical ‘jock concubine’. Then she magically became awesome after S7 showed up.)
10. (Pre-Earth) The Twins have taken it upon themselves to court their new CMO, Ratchet. Imagine their surprise when he tells them that, no, he won’t interface with them - they need to meet his trine-mates first, at least. Meanwhile, Wheeljack and Perceptor are trying to finish their schooling as quickly as possible so that they can join their older friend, but are meeting with some difficulties due to the fact that… Well, basically the entire campus despising their existence. When Prime, Prowl, Mirage, Sunstreaker and Sideswipe come to visit, the Dean points out ‘Jack and Perce as the most likely to join the Decepticons. (I’d imagine that the Twins don’t know that ‘Jack and Perceptor are Ratchets trine mates.)
11. Megatron has an epiphany - he has everything he needs to control Starscream in Skywarp and Thundercracker.
12. Xantium despises Optimus Prime. After all - everyone says that he’s such a great leader, but as far as she’s concerned, he has nothing on Springer.
13. …A thought occurs. Xantium/Ark.
14. Groove decides that the Decepticons just need some help with their anger management skills. Hot Shot thinks he’s lost his mind.
15. A member of the Ark gets captured and nobody quite knows what to think when Red Alert asks for himself, Inferno, and Perceptor to be allowed to do an extraction. Nor do they know what to think when they come back not only healthy, but visibly less stressed. Or when they find out exactly what kind of destruction the three had unleashed on the Decepticons. “What do you expect - we’re Wreckers. It’s what we specialize in.”
16. The Wreckers are not a gestalt - that doesn’t mean that they’re not just as close to each other as gestalt members are, though.
17. Swoop offers an actual explanation for why the Dinobots believe the strongest should rule. And points out the fact that, if you don’t have enough to use your strength, than you’re not exactly the strongest, are you?
18. There’s petro-rabbits and petro-foxes. So… are there petro-fish?
19. Pre-Earth, Pre-War. Prowl and Jazz have known each other since their sparkling years, on the streets. Once they got old enough, they took to surviving the only way they knew how - thievery. Prowl gets captured, and vorns later, Optimus Prime learns that the tactician has been little more than Sentinal’s slave.
20. The programming that lets some mechs be such good warriors has a few drawbacks - like the fact that going too long without a fight causes severe system errors. Perceptor hasn’t been in a battle since he joined the Ark’s crew (everyone assumed he was a pacifist and made efforts to keep him off the battlefield), which is several million years before the Ark crash-lands on Earth. Sunstreaker finds out, and, since he and his twin have the same programming, sets out to help the scientist
Edit: I've fixed the spellings of 'Ark'. ...I really need to pay more attention to things like that.
