#Autobot Warpath

[robotshowtunes]

Warpath is an expert sharpshooter, capable of hitting a 0.2-inch object from a distance of 1.5 miles. His tank cannon, which is usable in both vehicle and robot modes, fires a variety of shells, including acid, sonic charges, incendiary, explosive, and cryogenic rounds.

Hot Rod for my All-Sparks AU, ft. cameos of Barricade, Swerve and Warpath!

And now for (surprisingly lengthy) lore!: Hot Rod, a young, reckless bot whose dedication to his friends and loved ones is only matched by his colossal ego, is an Autobot scout who with a passion for going fast, doing heroic (and ocassionally mind-numbingly dangerous) deeds and making sure that, at the end of the day, he still looks to be in tip top shape, especially his paint job. He's awesome, as he'd frequently say about himself, though others are far less impressed.

Prior to the great Exodus, he grew up a street urchin on Cybertron, then taken in by timeless veteran Kup who tried his best to humble the young bot, and apprenticed under Wheeljack, ever a supportive young bot who loved to see what kind of wacky experiment Jackie would create this time. All of these life experiences has made him a resourceful young bot with mechanical and chemical know-how, and, when push comes to shove, knows how to create a plan seemingly out of his afterburner. It is perhaps these qualities that resulted in him, and his group of childhood friends, being the ones to finally discover the wearabouts of the in-stasis Autobot leader, Optimus Prime. Seeing the Ark guarded by Grimlock did give him a bit of a scare though (not that he'd admit it).

Beneath the bluster of the young man, is someone who simply believes that he could be doing something more to help others. Cooped up in an off-world Autobot fortress, he wanted to do more than watch out for 'Cons and be on lookout. No. He believed that he could make a difference ya know? Even before everyone left home. He frequently reminisced about the past, the joys of his youth. He missed Iacon, he missed his friends. And so with a heavy heart, he requested to leave on his personal ship "The Rod Pod" to try and find traces of the missing leader of the Autobots.

Oh lord, I had the cutest dream last night of reader reuniting with the Scavengers. It was so freaking cute and heart string tugging. Reader just running up to their boys, Spinster kneeling down with their blanket outstretched and ready to bundle reader back up. Crankcase trying to act all tough and normally angry but he’s letting that façade slip. Misfire and Krok are all over Spinster, trying to get a touch and feel of Reader to truly make sure they’re back.

And the Lost Light crew just kinda dips because Tarn is totally still on the warpath for their blood/Energon but they’re glad they got the Scavengers human dropped off

Awwww! That’s adorable!

Just Gone-Reunion Pt 3

Scavengers x Reader

• “You know these guys?” Rodimus murmurs at Megatron and the former warlord shoots him a sour look. ‘Do you know every single, other Autobot?’ Venting as the doors between the ships lock into place with a hiss, Rodimus is aware of the human just behind him, leaning to look. And a group of mechs run through as soon as the airlock cycles and the doors open, armed to the denta while two of them yell incoherent demands to give them their human and brandish weapons. “Wait,” Rodimus growls when you try to get closer, using a ped to herd you back. These lunatics are the ones you’ve been begging to go back to? They’re either insane or just stupid and he can’t decide which is worse.

• “No, I said we’re not doing that!” Krok growls as Crankcase and Misfire both scream to ‘give back our human.’ And he cringes seeing Megatron himself, arms slowly folding across his chassis as he just stares at them. Because they’re so dead. You’re dead. They’re all dead because Misfire and Crankcase freaked out. “That’s Megatron. Megatron,” he snarls, shoving Crankcase’s hand down since the mech seems stuck. Again. And Spinister stalks forward, your blanket in a fist, rotors flaring aggressively. The lunatic one wrong word away from getting them all killed. “Spinister.”

• “Spin!” You shriek, darting around Rodimus’s peds to run for him and his knees hit the ground, hands out for you as you throw yourself into his palms. And you’re lifted and pressed against the warm mesh of his neck. ‘You disappeared. Just gone,’ he murmurs, ignoring everything else, including Krok’s nervous attempts to get him to get back on the ship so they can book it. And he sounds so confused, so hurt that your heart breaks for Spin. You’re trembling as you brush your cheek against him, the fear and anxiety just washing out of you at the warmth of him. Because you’re okay now. You’re home.

• Shuddering as Megatron glowers at all of them, Fulcrum helps Krok grab Crankcase and start dragging him toward the airlock, the mech completely frozen, his damaged processor locking up. Aware of Misfire hesitantly saluting the warlord with his blaster. “Yeah, we’re just going to take our human and see ourselves out,” Misfire says. Wants to touch you, feel the weight of you in his hands, needs that to know it’s really over and you’re back.

• Grabbing one of Spin’s rotors and tugging as the big medic rubs his face and jaw against you, murmuring brokenly that you’d disappeared, Misfire’s as happy to see you as the big guy is, wants to touch you, feel the warmth of you and reassure himself you’re okay. Can’t resist reaching to brush a servo against you. But he also doesn’t want to end up in an Autobot brig. Doesn’t know why the big guy is traveling with the Autobots after their side lost, let alone why he’s not in chains, but he doesn’t trust whatever this is. “Spin, I swear if you mass shift right now, I’ll pull one of your rotors off and beat you with it. Tiny’s fine,” he growls as the mech just keeps cuddling you against you, servos sliding over you as you hang onto him. “No fragging on potentially hostile ships.” And finally Spinister gets up, stares down Megatron to make him worried the idiot might take a swing at him and get them all killed, before letting him guide the big medic away.

• Hands grab his arm, pulling as Spinister growls after their side lost airlock shuts behind him. And he rumbles as the others reach for you, servos touching you. As the rest of the Scavengers crowd close. Crankcase grimacing as he snaps out of it and swears, turning to touch your jaw with a servo. “I get a turn after Spinister,” Misfire growls and you laugh, the sound ringing through him, because they’d all missed you. Needed you. You’re theirs like they’re yours.

Yeen's Blitzwing Headcanons!

Been going nuts about analyzing this big silly bot so here's some HC's

So, to start, I don’t think Blitzwing was one bot split in three, but two smashed together.

Blitz’s Icy face was a seeker, the off-color spaces on his cheeks even being the perfect place for where his theoretical vents would have been.

Hothead was a tanker, and while we get only one example of a “pure” tank cybertronian in TFA in the form of Warpath…

…you can see my vision here, right?

If you go with the ”split” method, no matter which face was the “original”, the other elemental power and alt mode had to come from somewhere.

But if Icy was the jet, and Hothead was the tank, where does Random come in? To answer that, I wanna get into the process of becoming a triple-changer.

The procedure could have been a way to try to make a super soldier, master of the land as well as the sky. Adding on Icy and Hothead’s elemental powers, the resulting individual would, in theory, be an unstoppable force.

If this sounds somewhat familiar, it should. A possibility for how Safeguard exists could be because the Autobots caught intel about the Triple Changer experiments. However, they would have had to make some serious adjustments since canonically, every single attempt to create a Triple Changer has either failed or ended up wildly unstable mentally. Blitzwing might even be in Megatron's inner circle purely because he’s the only “functional” Triple Changer to exist.

My thoughts for how the process goes is that not only are the frames and abilities combined into one, but their minds are combined as well.

Two consciousnesses being forced together, with all their memories and experiences preferably intact (that way your perfect soldier doesn’t have to re-learn to walk and talk), it causes an existential dissonance. Imagine being bombarded with the memories of someone else, and expected by everyone around you that they are yours now.

The resulting existential crisis burns out the processors, offlining the lucky, and maddens whoever manages to survive.

You have to be the cybertronian equivalent of drift compatible in order for it to go even decently well. Blitzy’s components were close, but not there yet.

What spared them the fate of other failed Triple Changers is a few precautions from Blackarachnia. She had the foresight to stick a third, empty processor in Blitzwing’s head to act as a buffer for the huge influx of data, as well as EMP-ing him as soon as the Existential Dissonance was occurring. This wiped the majority of his memories of his life before the procedure, but even all that wasn’t enough.

The trauma of the procedure, being torn apart and put back together again, as well as the Dissonance (whether they remember it or not), it was too much...leading Random to manifest within that empty processor.

Now, what brought me to this conclusion? Time for my amateur psychoanalysis under the cut!

To start, the expected disclaimers.

I am not a psychologist, and I do not claim to be. This whole thing is just for fun, and over-analysis of media I like is a big pastime for me. I also do not have DID, and anyone who does that has objections and/or critiques of my analysis, I fully encourage you to voice your thoughts.

Also, keep in mind that cybertronian brains likely don’t work one-to-one with how humans do, and that there’s no true equivalent to what Blitzwing is in terms of human psychology.

With that out of the way, with these headcanons in mind, Icy and Hothead are not alternate personalities in the psychological sense, seeing as they were once completely separate bots.

But Random is.

Random acts as something of a mediator or moderator for Icy and Hothead, in order to keep them somewhat balanced and working as a team. See the Jet-Tank argument, with him popping up to propose a compromise.

While all three faces can and do hold their own, to me Random especially acts as a protector. Examples being him headbutting Lugnut in ‘Lost and Found’ and his sudden change of trajectory in ‘Velocity’ (Never give up, never surrender, nevermind!). Bringing up the Jet-Tank argument again, he notably pops up while the sirens of the “autobot reinforcements” are getting closer and louder.

As for why Random pops in just to make jokes, humor is often used as a coping mechanism [he just like me fr], and not only did Blitzwing’s components go through the Triple Changer procedure, but millions of years of war. It’s no wonder, really.

And while a lot of Random’s jokes are very much “haha I’m so craaazy”, that feels like it’s more of a cry for help. Blitzwing is hyper-aware of his condition, and self depreciates as a way to cope [he just like me for realllllll :,)].

In conclusion, someone get this mech in Rung’s office, he desperately needs a psychotherapist (cyber-therapist?).

As a side note, something I really like is that, despite the nicknames for his faces in the Almanacs (that I used here mostly for clarity), Blitzwing is just referred to as Blitzwing, no matter what face is up front.
