Cassette and Deck Unit Ideas Running Rampant

If anyone knows any fics that meet any of these, please do comment with them. I’m in such a cassette mood right now, it’s stupid.

I love cassette prompts!

6. I really *really* would like to see something like that... Soundwave having to get to learn his cassette again after a wipe...

13. In my head canon, yes. I do believe they can get unique conditions. In my head canon, the reason why they are so small is because a lot of essential systems were removed (energon processing, inhibitors, etc.) To get well, they need to sync with a carrier. If they don't... Well, they can't process the enegon, can't recharge (no defrag) etc.. Basically, slowly going crazy and starving. (sorry, long ramble)

15. I like it :) I would make an awesome story. Either prompts.

On the last one - the Cassettes had been intending to upgrade Ravage, but Megatron vetoed it and had Rumble or Frenzy upgraded instead. The Cassettes' choice was based on how reliable and loyal a member of the team Ravage has always been, while Megatron's is because he sees Ravage as too valuable as a spy to lose. There's also the perceived split between the twins - Soundwave, and all the other Cassettes, knew it was never a wise idea to upgrade one of the twins because it causes an imbalance in the twin bond. The Cassette who gets upgraded undergoes a large spurt of spark-growth due to being in a substantially larger body, and in twins, that can put the twin left as a Cassette suffering bad spark-strain ( ... )

I'd read any of those.

And more spawn because of this. I don't think I've seen anywhere a fic where the cassette are actually multiple bondmates to their Deck Unit.

And on that note >> I wonder if that was the case If when a Deck Unit pursues someone they are actually eyeing them up and thinking of their possible usefulness to them as a cassette. Gives a whole new take on Sounders past relations with Ratbat. XD

Basically I'm in support of any idea or bunny that doesn't treat the cassettes as though they are Blaster's offspring. Although there is nothing wrong with that idea, I'd like a little variety. I tend to think their size gets people to think of them as perpetual children, similar to what happens to poor Bumblebrat.

I have seen a very similar idea to that... in a plotbunny I posted ages ago. I don't blame you if you've missed it, since that post was probably over a year and half to two years ago.

I still want to see someone tackle the idea.

3. I like Blaster and Twincast better than Billy and Blaster. Whoever translated that into English did horribly. That's why I stopped after about ten episodes.
