MegOP in Seeds of the Past

I already talked to about it a bit on Discord, but I will be doing some prequel stories for worldbuilding help for Seeds of the Past. And the recent decision to have Cybertron be missing does change that. I am absolutely very excited about the hot mess of Megatron and Optimus in this. Though the details are still a bit in flux. Tagging the people I've been talking about this with. @transingthoseformers @autiedonnie @sinspark4 @mychlapci

Optimus and Megatron are figures who have united their people in this timeline and are deeply loved as a result by their respective factions. They've also been through some really traumatic stuff that resulted in them being what they were. The Decepticons and Autobots split apart generations ago in the First Cybertronian Civil War following the loss of Cybertron and the death of the "last of the Thirteen".

By the time they were born, the Decepticon Empire was seemingly going strong and staying firmly in their own holdings and the Autobots were split and fractious. Megatron was raised in a rather high ranking military family by Terminus, who was retired due to injuries, but had major influence and had big plans. The Decepticons were very might makes right and had strict class system.

Megatron was very young and Terminus's had a lot of political enemies. Terminus was murdered in front of him and Megatron was stripped of his titles and thrown onto the battlefield with no support in dangerous areas in the hopes he would die. He befriended Soundwave, Shockwave, and Starscream and beat his way to the top with the promise of reform and tossing aside the "gluttons" who'd "grown fat" on the backs of other Decepticons. He enforced a strict meritocracy and rules system that was painfully equal and filled with expectations. Decepticons would not fight each other but outsiders were up for grabs and they would become great.

He fulfilled his promises to people like Soundwave and Shockwave and enforced strict laws to protect Decepticon youth from being taken advantage of or be forced into being soldiers young. He restarted the war with Sentinel Prime as his opponent. Any Autobots who surrender or defect or considered full members of the Empire which is also strictly enforced.

The Autobots were weak and split and not working together with a lot of conflicting interests and different ships and colonies having real varying economic levels. Orion was born on a very poor colony that was "unimportant" from one of the Titan Hot Spots. It was an agricultural and mining area that was part of the Energon production area. It was also one of the areas that was attacked by the Decepticons.

Orion watched everything happen and evacuated as a refugee jumping from colony to ship heading to the center of Autobot space. He helped where he could as the fragile peace shattered. He met quite a few of what would become his central command at this point and eventually got a pass to travel to New Iacon, which was the current capital of the Autobots and contained their most prominent and active Hot Spot. Allegedly.

Orion became very key in helping the community of refugees organize together and take care of each other and eventually one of their voices as a representative as tensions were rapidly rising with the war and the increase of population and prejudices popping up. It's a bit more blurry here, but a draft is called and Orion and his people are the first ones thrown on the battlefield as those that could pay, paid to have themselves and their families overlooked.

More stuff happens and Orion is one of the survivors of a suicide mission he and the other "disposables" like him were sent on when Sentinel Prime tries to take Luna-1, the Wandering Moon, from Decepticon possession, revealing in doing so that he started the war not the Decepticons. Sentinel goes full if he can't have it no one can and Orion betrays him, because he doesn't want a bunch of newborns to be murdered, and a young Megatron who shoots Sentinel through the chest. They've somewhat bonded over the whole incident and extended time together.

Megatron is prepared to let Orion live. He offers him a place in the Decepticons or at least the chance to "flee" but then Orion touches the Matrix and it lights up in a way that startles them both and Orion starts to change. Megatron recognizes what is happening and stabs Orion in an attempt to stop the Matrix bonding to him. The rest of Orion/Optimus's people arrive and get him out.

This leaves Optimus the new leader of the Autobots and Megatron is not prepared to back down or let "Autobot Aggression" go especially given how many of "Sentinel's snakes" still control Autobot territory. Optimus becomes a hero and unites the Autobots, with a lot of political drama and opposition from the different factions within them, in a way they haven't in generations as does Megatron both focused on improving their people's lives but having different views on the suffering of others.

They are both more than a little obsessed with each other on some level due to having developed a certain understanding of each other during this time and throughout the years. Megatron would accept Optimus's surrender in a moment if they could come to an agreement on terms, but Optimus can't trust Megatron to not cause harm.

Chapter 4 - Medbay (There's Harmony in Hesitation) is out now on AO3.

Primarily JazzProwl with some background relationships.

Chapter Length: 3,490

Fic Length: 15,256

Small chapter synopsis below the cut <3

Wide blue optics slowly slide to the left before coming back to meet Prowl’s gaze. With his digits making repetitive clicks against each other, Sundancer wriggled in place. 

He waits. 

The tapping continues. Pauses. Continues - almost more insistently. 

“Soooo…...”

Prowl sighs as more taps echo throughout the silent room. 

“Sundancer.” Shooting Ratchet an unamused stare - Which, Ratchet’s was getting more amused by the klik, “I am assuming that you are able to share with me the length of my medical stasis and perhaps, the cause?” 71% likely, though whether or not anything coherent would come out in the next breem was far more debatable. Prowl wasn’t waiting with bated breath.  

Sundancer’s vents deepen as he takes in air, holds it for a couple kilks, and lets it back out. Sets his servos in a tight grip with his digits interlocked in front of him and opens his mouth after a couple more moments of hesitation. “You’ve been offline for two cycles. Ratchet had to keep you in medical stasis for the majority of it due to flushing coolant out of your lines and replacing a bunch of them right at the entry point of the wound. You should be good now, er……mostly.” His words got faster and Prowl watched as his little doorwings began beating at the air in anxiety. “I mean, y-you’re mostly fine anyway. AlittlebitofelectricaldamagebutnothingRatchetcouldn’tfix. Everything else should be in working ord-.” Sundancer continued to prattle on while Prowl got caught up on a couple of words.

Electrical damage? What was that about electrical damage? 

Prowl tried to recall the events of his strange and presumably brief capture at the hands of the small assassin. Once more, it was futile. Flashes of memory were all he could grasp - a bright blue visor, a wide almost maniacal grin full of sharp denta, and the disorienting feeling of swaying back and forth. Pain. A lot of the flashes of memory were shrouded in pain. - He held back a sigh - of course, he should have already assumed - what wasn’t corrupted at this point. Eventually, he knew some of the data would come back to him once his nanites had ample time to work on his cortex. 

He was impatient though. 

Prowl backed away - as much as he could while berth bound and hooked up to an unknown number of monitoring devices; Ratchet hadn’t skimped out - as Sundancer nervously continued to chitter. The mechling wouldn’t meet his gaze - glancing at the CMO, he was momentarily disturbed by the compounding glee radiating off of the mech. 

Prowl put a weary servo on Sundancer’s shoulder, stopping him mid sentence before he could continue to babble himself away from the topic he was obviously trying to avoid. “Thank you, but what was that about electrical damage?” 

Sundancer absolutely wilted. “I got carried away?”

Prowl stared at him in dumbfounded confusion. “Was that a question, or a statement?” 

“Yes”

E.J Sue’s “Mechaforce” is one of the few “How to Draw” books I would point newbies looking to get into drawing robots to. It emphasizes knowing the basics (Very difficult to draw a robot properly if you can’t use perspective) and fundamental shapes and even arm techniques, and gives a neat insight into how mechanical forms work in art. 

These are just a few of the examples from the anatomy section of the book. It’s currently on sale on Amazon and worth checking out, though I will note it is not a “be all end all” resource, thankfully you can fill in your knowledge gaps elsewhere. 

Also since this is popping off please consider taking a look at his Tumblr! right here at E.J Sue Art
