Cyberformed New York

How it went down, and the basics on how cyberforming works.

It happened out of no were, a loud boom and them a second later piercing burning white light, no warning no time to prepare, shit is now officially fuck and now everyones gotta adapt, if they want any chance surving let alone at stopping this from getting any worse. Because even if the first big change is over, whatever caused this is not gone and is still slowly shifting and warping things.

Read more about what's going on with the city here

I'm not going to say how yet because I still plan on writing that fic, so I won't spoil the mystery yet, but you all are free to speculate. :]

To be successfully cyberformed and not become a metal statue or some kind of mechanical beast requires two things: a mechanical or electronic something that can serve as a frame, and so, so much luck. The human body is used to create the spark, and the process of transforming flesh into a spark often goes awry, sometimes for an identifiable reason, and sometimes for what seems like no reason at all. That's why you need that luck.

Full Cybertronian

Aka a successful spark conversion, the lucky few who get to at least keep their minds after cyberforming, where the body, essence, and life force are successfully converted into a spark.

What makes a successful or failed spark conversion is unknown to most; it seems completely random, but no human who has spent a significant amount of time exposed to Cybertronian has had a failed spark conversion. The reason for this is still unknown to the characters. However, for those who had a successful spark conversion and didn't interact with cybertonians before, there doesn't seem to be any clear connections as to why they didn't lose themselves.

Cyber beast

Failed spark conversion, most who get cyberformed end up like this, a lot of things can go wrong when converting fleshy meat into a semi eternal burning life force so over 98% of spark conversion fail

Any potential frame material being touched by more than one person will always end in a failed spark conversion, as trying to make a stable spark out of 2 or more separate beings almost always fails

Statue

Becoming a statue is the fate to befall anyone not in contact with something that could become a frame. No frame materials mean, well, instead of your body becoming a spark, it just becomes metal.

No amount of cybertronian friendship points can save you from this fate,

ya, this AU is old. The art with Raoul Tracks and Sparkplug is new, but the stuff with that random guy is from 2023 but was never posted wtf lol

Anyways, fun fact about the Raoul and tracks drawing, I started drawing the Raoul was fixing, looked up the ref of the engine, realized it had a mid-rear engine, not a front engine, so had to flip the car and redraw it lol

I really love @startheskelaton 's oc and after seeing her medieval au I had to draw Sparkplug in a big puffy dress

Also First drawing of the year lmao

@startheskelaton

Spark plug and soundblaster interacting with Helios Prime and Repaired shockwave/ Katie

(Both from an au from mine. Sorry if i made them a bit OOC)

[forestkit13]

My oc, Enigma and @startheskelaton oc Sparkplug.

Thought it would be cute since I have Engima and Rodimus as Conjux, so Enigma is meeting his new sister in Law. I tried to draw Sparkplug as close to their art style as possible.

Also, despite his neutral expression Engima is losing it on the inside from how cute the baby is. He would and will kill for her.

2019 -> 2021 -> 2024 [now]

after a few years, I've finally updated the Escape Velocity crew's reference sheets ^_^ they feel much more real now.... possibly too real. I feel like domino is going to appear in my house and start asking me to buy beer

sometimes I feel a little discouraged about how long I've spent developing these characters without any comic pages to show for it, but I think in the end the extra time was really needed, and I'm really happy with how the crew look now :J and hopefully I can stop myself from making any more major changes.

check out my ev tag if you want to see more of these weird guys

I really like your cyberformed AU! Are there other humans affected? I know sometimes Sparkplug is in New York and I think also Astoria

Thanks! I'm happy your enjoying my funky cyberformed au.

Well you got two of them, it's Sparkplug, Chip, Raoul, Astoria and Poplock (though im still working on the last twos designs) along with just a lot of random ass people who got caught in the cyberforming and got lucky enough not to become just a metal statue, for most people it seems pretty random who becomes cybertronian and who doesn't while for those who were consistently exposed to Cybertronians before things went to hell are much more likely to have become cybertronian in the cyberforming, why? Wait till I actually start finishing those drafts and properly start posting the fic to find out ;]

Also cyberformed human optic colors are random. Most bots change their optic lenses when the war started so a cyberformed human having optics colors of one the faction can cause bots to assume their faction from afar for better and for worse. Sparkplug got unlucky and got red optics having been shot more than once by the autobot who thought he was a con. (Also full chip and sparkplug ref coming soon i finish their designs i just need to draw a proper clean ref)

Transformers g1 skits… another round of megatron being the A+ parent

_________________________

Sparkplug:

Sparkplug: … *sighs* ok-, why are you here?

Megatron: why the frag did you say ‘don’t call me that’ in front of your child?!

Sparkplug: oh, you heard that… I was forced to say it. No thanks to you!

Megatron: fragging-. Dr arkeville!!! I need you to reprogram those stupid brain chips of yours! And if you say otherwise I swear-. *voice fades away*

Sparkplug:

Sparkplug, internally: … what just happened?

———

Optimus: megatron has gone too far.

Bumblebee: when doesn’t he go too far, just last week he shot a bouquet out of his canon.

Optimus: … you’re right, you know your father/mother than anyone.

Spike: I just hope- wait what?! Megatron’s your mom/dad?!!

Bumblebee: … scrap, I knew I forgot to do something.

———

Soundwave: megatron: we have a situation.

Megatron: *sighs* if it’s starscream again. What’s he planing this time?

Soundwave: starscream: plans on destroying one of the autobot soldiers.

Megatron: then we wait it out. Like we normally do… it’ll fail anyways.

Soundwave:

Soundwave, just ruined starscream’s career: autobot: he plans on destroying is the heir to-.

Megatron: *already gone and approaching starscream’s location*

———

*sparkling bumblebee au*

Megatron, holding his son: to primus I prey, that you’ll grow into a mighty warrior! As powerful as I am!

*two cybertronian years later*

Megatron: hey, primus.. remember when I preyed that he’ll grow into a mighty warrior? I take it back. Keep him like this.

———

Optimus: we’re sorry for not telling you sooner.

Ironhide: yeah, I know your in shock and all but just note, bumblebees still a friend-

Spike: guys, I’m not mad I’m just surprised… thinking about it now? It makes sense.

Ironhide: … how does it make sense?

Spike: ironhide… most of the shots fired by megatron himself have missed bumblebee. On purpose. He doesn’t normally do that unless his aim is bad as starscreams… which is unlikely.

Ironhide: … son of a glitch that actually makes sense.

———

Megatron: he won’t even let it go until I brought him along to give shockwave the data pad.

Soundwave: query: did you use the look?

Megatron: not really… his pout was cute what about you human?

Sparkplug:

Sparkplug: … bumblebee’s yours-?! Wait.. you’re both parents?!

Soundwave: affirmative.

Megatron: I’m a proud mom/dad… bumblebee said it best.

———

Brawn: … sooo, how does that work?

Bumblebee: how does what work?

Brawn: how is a sweet bot like yourself with the biggest and loyalist spark of gold, be related to a warlord with the amount of bloodlust as unicron?

Bumblebee: *shrugs* … out of all the bots I expected to be surprised… you’re the most calmest about this.

Brawn: honestly? I feel way too numb to say anything about it.. I’d probably scream it when going into recharge.

———

Starscream, bleeding out in a family guy death pose:

Thundercracker: starscream! What happened?!

Starscream: I uh… found out that the yellow bug is his heir. I thought I found his weakness… turns out that little scraplet is his fragging strength. How?!

Thundercracker: when it comes to the heir of the decepticons. Stamina is one pit of a drug, screamer.

Starscream: … YOU KNEW?!?!!?

_________________________

Sorry for the wait… I got really busy-.

I’m a little tired but I’ll be alright, I’m unsure if this’ll be my last of g1 or not *shrugs* oh well, not the end of it anyways… I’ll circle back whenever I get inspired the best I can.

Also, starscream finally knows… soo that’s gonna be another shenanigan with starscream trying to be the leader and failing… 50 times more than usual.
