SURVIVAL AU??????? PLEASE TELL ME EVERYTHING YOU HAVE OVER IT SO FAR 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

I have a few wips but I haven't finished it yet :"D but I can put the lore here!

Survival AU Lore:

The primes fought the Quintessons and they're all died, it turned out that the sentinels were also died (or maybe missing). So there was a leadership vacuum. In the end, many fought for the throne, Cybertron became even more destroyed.

Due to Sentinel's absence, all cybertronian's T-cogs was not taken out. However, they had to survive like a zombie game, but with the Quintessons. Well, to survive they have to group together, think of it as Autobots and Decepticons but they're not really enemies.

Then what about D and Orion? They haven't met yet. Orion used to be the Autobots leader, but under his leadership there were a lot of losses, until Jazz was in a coma. Orion was so guilty, he finally "ran away" and became a lone survivor. The current Autobots leader was Elita.

While Orion was surviving alone, he met Bee. Well, I wanted to make Bee a sparkling so there would be a father-son relationship 🥺. Bee is half-muted and likes to call Orion "Papapax".

Until finally in a critical situation, for example, Orion and Bee were almost caught by the quintesson, a Bounty Hunter that was also a Decepticon appeared and accidentally saved them. He met D16.

Autobot and Decepticon are an identity of their ideology. Autobot values ​​life while Decepticon, if there is someone weak/troublesome, it's better to burn them than to be a burden. So when Orion met D16, he was a bit nervous because this mech was a con that can kill whenever and wherever they want.

But Orion got the nerve to plead to D16 that he'll do anything D want to repay and help Bee to find a safe place.

D16 accepted it gruntly, with one condition; Orion would be a servant/subordinate while they're together searching for Bee's place.

Thats it for now! I hope you like it 🙌😆

I really like your survival au. What to the high guard look like in it? (Specifically starscream because he’s my favourite)

Thank you!

I have wips about other character beside Megop and Bee, especially the decepticon ones. Fortunately I've done drawing Starscream enough compared to the rest.

He's pretty difficult to draw but I like the design, though I just imagine him for just a few scenes.

There will be Soundwave and Shockwave too, however in this story, them and Starscream are in a different group.

Anyway, here's Starscream doodle!

[just-joeja]

can we see tf survival au starscream comic like you did with soundwave?

pls I am in my KNEES your style is so simple and so lovable i don't think anyone could hate it

Hii! Sorry for the late reply. Thank you, I'm glad you like my style 🩷🩷

Yes you can! But my laptop broke so I have to draw on my mother's (she and I are really busy), which make my drawing progress longer

Anyway, I had time to make a rough sketch about it, hope it will satisfy for a while 😽

(And yeah, starscream here was an archer)

And bonus as my traditional drawing heheh

As I stumble for the fifth time on your Survival AU, I ask you this question : does Orion get the Matrix at some point and becomes Optimus Prime ? Same for D-16, does he get Megatronus' cog ?

Alpha Trion is probably dead in this version so they have no insight as to how to get ahead on the Quintessons...

Hello! Sorry for the late reply. I can make some explanation:

They will have their own cogs at the end of the story! I imagine the way Orion gets the Matrix of Leadership is more or less the same as in the movie (the falling and meeting Primus in the core of Cybertron scene). But of course there will be differences, especially the way D16 gets Megatronus' Cog and becomes Megatron. Because Dee here will not be evil with his red eyes, there will be a new approach.

As for defeating Quintesson, it is true that all Primes died including Alpha Trion. So, what they will do to defeat Quintesson is; one of them is spying into the Quintesson Ark, or even disguises themselves as "the Quints subordinate" to get more information.

Unfortunately I can't explain any further because there might be a major spoiler 👀

Thank you for asking me!

UR SURVIVAL AU I AMAZING

Is there any other characters that's in that au, like... ARCEE :D?

Thank you for letting me know! It made my day 🩷

And yep there's other characters in survival AU. Decepticons is having a high probability.

To be honest I just have a brief thought about Arcee, but she's in one of Autobots group that has Elita-1, Orion, Jazz, and Prowl. This group, if you read the lore, was not in a good shape. Jazz was in a coma (in which they didn't know when will he wake up) and Orion seperated himself. Thus, the remaining members, Elita, Prowl, and Arcee had to survive, mostly seeking for help.

While Elita and Prowl might have been given up, Arcee was the one who still looking for Orion. And she found him with Bee and Dee.

That's what I have so far! This is one of the scene for my future fic, though I can't promise that there will be more screen time about her.

And about her design, I've imagine it in my mind but I don't have a time to sketch yet due to my busyness. I hope it answers your question! :D

[just-joeja]

In your are survival au did Soundwave let out his She said, so that they can play with b

I don't understand the "she said" Part, but I assume it's about his cassettes so they can play with B, yeah, he is :D

Orion have his time struggling about how to take care a sparkling, and Soundwave is the master of it (even tho the cassettes is not his original sparklings, they act childish lol)

[just-joeja]

Where are you from ?

Indonesia

[just-joeja]

Your "Harmony in your Spark" fic is so so so amazing and I need to know: what would the rest of "team Prime" play or do? Cause like the easy answer in my mind for Bulkhead is that he's a percussion guy (Jazz, symphonic, rock, he does it all), but also feels like the type of guy that would also be a sound engineer/music production.

Thank you!! 🌷

Okay so I have several ideas, but I'm still considering it if they're suitable for the plot.

I first thought about Smokescreen, he's Arcee's student so he plays the violin. He'll meet Bee in the future!

For Bulkhead the first time I imagine him is he plays wind instruments, either Trumpet or Trombone. Despite classic, he likes to play some jazz. Wheeljack is the one who will play the percussion :D

I'm still thinking about Jazz though, him playing saxophone is interesting, but him with electric guitar suits him too. He likes to make his own music that's for sure! And He'll be good friends with Bulkhead XD

And Ultra Magnus... He's still a mystery 👀

I hope I answer your question!
