ZOMBIE! Optimus AU stuff

Remember that crackship I joked about haha. Ha.

(Cannibalism body horror and sexual content ahead)

‼️CONTEXT: Soundwave has contracted the same infection as Optimus Prime by this time. This AU is almost 100% based off “The Santa Clarita Diet” so the side effects of the virus stay true to the virus in the show: Cannibalism, increased energy/speed/strength, drastic dopamine release and personality change, extreme libido.

Soundwave has lost his ability to focus on his duties or stand at a console all day the same as before, ashamed and confused with himself by the change. He eventually begins to recognize the dangers of losing his control and infecting Megatron, the high command, or his soldiers, and has no way to contribute the way he used to, so he vanishes without a trace (goes rogue).

Over time the less fortunate side effects such as decaying frame begin to catch up to him. He’s been scavenging vehicon leftovers from battlegrounds while avoiding either faction, and takes notice that Prime, the origin of the virus, hasn’t rotted the same way. His new objective is to find himself whatever cure Optimus has and get some for himself.

This prompts him to approach Bulkhead while he’s patrolling and try to reason with him, which turns into rather terrible flirting due to Soundwave having been isolated since the virus’s early stages and hasn’t had an opportunity to sate himself of the other side effect and YES I know that’s silly but this is a COMEDY AU. As you can imagine this doesn’t really amuse Bulkhead but he does pity Soundwave for the washed up desperate faction-less loner he’s become since the virus took over his life, and the two meet up on the same spot often, becoming friends with benefits after Bulkhead is able to smuggle some of the cure out to Soundwave.

Our favorite repair crew is being targeted by both the elite guard and the decepticons. Why? Well for the highest honor: being their bondmates. See as various cybertronians try to woo the team for their spark.

Chat would I lose followers for canonizing BulkWave in my zombie AU??

I mean hypothetically 👀💦 no need to get the pitchforks I know fandoms obsessed with ‘not being cringe’ can’t handle rarepairs a lot of the times….

Yknow just saying hypothetically the dynamic of someone who’s actively losing the only way he can contribute to his cause to a virus causing drastic physical and mental changes that make it harder to even stand at a console, let alone focus on the work, and a guy he imprinted on who fucking hates him, has a single and extremely rambunctious child as a charge, and has his own worth issues (surfaced when he was injured) about how his strength is sorta his only contribution and Soundwave is an old panicking homeless fucker living out Bulhead’s worst nightmare. Whether or not Bulkhead remains apathetic or decides to sympathize with him are both completely valid Choices.

But yknow it also brings up whether or not he’s legitimately changed enough as a person to care about….
