Happy Bunnies
1. Bluestreak talks a lot, but he never says anything.
2.[G1] Prowl stole his name and frame from a dead mech. Now said mech’s friends have arrived on the ark, and Prowl’s millennia old lie is about to come tumbling down.
3. Art bunny, all Kirin’s fault. Rumble sitting in jail, calling Soundwave to bail him out.
4. White fox inspired bunny. After surviving the decepticon’s ‘reeducation’ camps, they weren’t too inclined to trust other giant robots.
5. “There are worlds out there where the sky is burning, and the sea's asleep, and the rivers dream; people made of smoke and cities made of song. Somewhere there's danger, somewhere there's injustice, somewhere else the tea's getting cold. Come on, Ace. We've got work to do.”-Doctor Who
The autobots have been to a thousand worlds in their battles against the decepticons, and all of them carry reminders of planets that touched their sparks.
6. Mirage: It’s just Raj now. Apropos of nothing.
7.[G1] The Quintessons created transformers as merchandise. Therefore, at least some of them were sold as merchandise. So it’s quite conceivable that a few of these ancient beings still exist throughout the galaxy, isolated from their free cousins. (One of these is Perceptor’s model-sibling. Guess which.)
I. C13 was sold to his former owners 12 million years ago, became self-aware shortly after, and met one of his own kind…yesterday.
II. Θ (Theta), a military hardware and H4, a consumer goods were both sold to an isolated colony, one to build and one to defend. Once they gained sentience, they stayed in the only home they’ve known.
III. Military Hardware 824 was part of a platoon participating in a global civil war, until its operator was killed. It was found and repaired by a unit of mechs entirely unlike any it had encountered before. They called themselves ‘Decepticons’.
IV. Special Order 1412, known as Songbird to her owners, Fim to her fellow slaves, is about to consign herself to the smelting pools. She’s about to join the rebellion.
V. E9 is a consumer good quietly working in his master’s lab. At night he builds radios, seeking to communicate with the siblings he no longer remembers.
VI. Δ (Delta)’s job is to defend the consumer goods models as they rebuild the city. She can’t understand why the new ones are afraid of her.
8.[G1] Skyfire has a ‘virus’ similar to HIV. Back when he originally contacted it, no cure could be found, and those who had were shunned out of fear and were often fired or barred from large gatherings of people. He and Starscream successfully managed to hide the fact, and even found some ways to slow the progression. While he was in the ice, a cure was found, but Starscream never got a chance to tell him. Skyfire is deteriorating, but hasn’t told Ratchet for fear of losing his place. Starscream knows it will only be a matter of months before he dies if he doesn’t get treatment.
9. Justice League Unlimited Crossover. Art and plot bunny:
Plot: The Question and Red Alert meet up and discuss the presence of a certain decepticon in Hub City.
Art: Red Alert seated at a table, supporting the Question in cupped hands in front of his face as they talk, a delighted look on his face, as various DC superheroes and Autobots stare in horror.
10. Inspired by this ficlet. One day, First Aid walks out of the Medbay with two cubes of energon and a set of laser scalpels. He never comes back.
11.[G1]One of the routine kidnap-the-autobots’-pet-humans plans goes awry when Ratbat gets attached to Sparkplug.
12.[G1] Spike has leukemia (ALL). He managed to beat it once, but it came out of remission shortly after he met the autobots. The doctors estimate he has until his 16 birthday at best. He refused treatment. As the deadline approaches and the symptoms worsen, he has two choices: continue his deception to protect the autobots from worrying, or confess to avoid the continued pain.
13. The autobots are confused by the fact that Spike and Carly (or Sam and Mikeala) are expected to be proficient in many different subject areas, not just one. (“Wasn’t your specialty engineering?” “Still have to study English, ‘Bee.”)
14.?:*smiling pleasantly* Refer to me a clone again, and I shall dissemble you and use your component parts as lab tools.
15.?: It will be enough. Primus help us, but it will be enough.
16.[G1] Thundercracker defects to the autobots, and finds himself with a wing of eager students, an overprotective gestalt leader on his back, and a tall white shuttle for a shadow.
17.“Given standard temperature, light, and humidity, the organism will do as it damn well pleases.”
Art or story. In which Skywarp is suicidal, a sign is posted, and Starscream is Not Amused
18."Truth, justice, honor...none of that's worth shit. What matters is people, and people aren't honest or just or honorable. They're petty and they're angry and they're afraid, and all anyone really wants, deep down, is to be wanted. And what's truth to that? " -M. Adducci
19. Catapultam habeo. Nisi pecuniam omnem mihi dabis ad capul tuum saxum immane mittam. - I have a catapult. Give me all the money or I will fling an enormous rock at your head. Fun with foreign languages!
20. Someone comes up with a game: Find a human quote that best fits a member of the ark. Winner gets to declare the next target.
Ex:Optimus-I'm not a member of any organized political party, I'm a[n Autobot]! -- Will Rogers
21. The problem with people like Prowl and the boss, Rumble thought, was that neither of them believed in big romantic gestures, like saving each other on the battlefield or sparkbonding. They didn’t even have the decency to sigh longingly after each other. So how, he demanded of the universe at large, was he suppose to get them back together?
22. Prowl: Sideswipe, you are banned from the internet. Forever.
