So I'm on a HUGE Tracks/Raoul thing; I've got over a dozen stories/art/comic ideas just focusing on these two stewing right now (I'm going to singlehandedly change the pathetically low number of Tracks/Raoul fanworks in the world, I swear).
But clearly that's not enough, as a certain New York punk has been throwing bunnies at me left and right focusing not just on him and his flying Corvette, but him interacting with other G1 characters too. And since I have enough bunnies multiplying around me, I thought you guys might like to be sacrificed to adopt some adorable Raoul bunnies.
As a bonus, I'll give you a side option of one TF Crossover bunny.
Raoul & Tracks
“Dancing with the feet is one thing, but dancing with the heart is another.”
- On the streets of New York Raoul was an actor, performing for the public eye each day. He considered himself lucky to see the punk truly dance.
- They were born in a battlefield they didn't create, nor did they know how to escape it.
- (2007!verse) Tracks is insistent Raoul try out for "So You Think You Can Dance"; Raoul's sick of being told he's not good enough...
- Raoul: "I need the money more than I need a set of wheels." Tracks: "More than a friend?"
What happened in the weeks of car-restoring and rebuilding following "Make Tracks"?
Raoul & misc others:
- Sure he's done some rotten stuff, but he'd never used a gun. He can't say that anymore...but he can't say it wasn't worth it, either.
- A young woman runs into her old ex-boyfriend; it's only been two years, but she can't believe how different Raoul is. (FemOC of authors choice?)
- Raoul is officially taken in as one of Ratchet's Medic Trainees, in the CMO's own loving way.
- Autobot leader Optimus Prime and New York street punk Raoul are as different as can be. Dock-mech Orion Pax, however, knows exactly where the young man is coming from.
- Of course one of them had to be a freaking Police car.
- Raoul goes to the Autobot's New York HQ to hang out with Tracks n' Blaster; too bad he didn't the memo about the 'Bots heading upstate to investigate something. All he finds there is some nerdy kid in a wheelchair looking like he's going to smack his kneecaps with a crowba-OW! (...Okay, so all I REALLY want is Chip Chase and Raoul to meet and build awesome things together that may or may not blow up as much as Wheeljack/Perceptor's stuff. I mean, nerdy computer genius and street smart mechanical maybe-genius as buddies? C'MON.)
- Five times Raoul acted like a big brother, and one time he was treated like a son.
Crossover Bunny
- Am I the only one that thinks Captain Fanzone (TF:Animated) and Agent Fowler (TF:Prime) need to meet? Two men of the law stuck dealing with these giant alien robots on a regular basis, cleaning up their messes, and in general being driven crazy? They'd totally go to a bar together, have a couple of beers and talk about those crazy Autobots, why they hate machines (or maybe even kindasortaMAYBE liking them...a little!). Or just being badass mofo's working on a case together and getting their awesome justice on.
Just me? Okay.
(Knowing me, I'll get to some of these eventually anyway, but FFFFFF...)
