1 bunny that apparently ate my brain.
Seriously, I think my brain is hell-or-pit-bent on having me utterly fail Latin....
*deep breath* Okay, here we go.
I know that there've been various bunnies and theories regarding seekers going through some manner of mating cycle and implying that other Cybertronians don't. Let's just say that's not the case.
In fact, each of the various build-types go through a mating/breeding cycle, but in normal circumstances the various cycles don't coincide at all (i.e. seekers going through it one span of time, tanks going through it after the seeker-cycle ends, trucks following that one, minis following that, etc. ad nauseum). Therefore it's just considered good manners to not discuss mating or breeding habits of other frame builds or your own when in mixed company.
However, considering that the Earth-bound Autobots and Decepticons were in stasis for several million years, circumstances are far from normal. Meaning that all the cycles are thrown off and the planetary conditions are just dissimilar enough from Cybertron to kick the mechs of both factions into their cycles either early or late, and causing overlap between the different builds.
Cue some confusion and amusement when mechs that normally wouldn't even be caught dead attempting to interact beyond a social basis with one another start hooking up. Cue more confusion and some speculation when more than a few of these "mismatches" find that they're a hell of a lot happier than they would have been with their own frame-types.
Seriously, this could quickly dissolve into smut.
And now that I've probably traumatized everyone including the mechs, I'll be shutting up now ^^;
