I’ve been thinking of triple changer bee, hear me out now pls. I don’t have his origins nailed down yet but so far I got: he was originally forged as a seeker, but minibot style since the war was beginning and most of the resources were being taken up leaving only scraps. later, for some reason, he got a T-cog for a grounder alt mode and he refrained himself from using his flyer alt mode after. occasionally he does fly but rarely and on his own. he doesn’t have wings like other seekers do, instead his wings are extra durable armor on his frame (ex. his arms). but when he gets to earth and gains both alt modes he gets door wings because cybertronian cars don’t have doors.

why am I telling you this? because I think you’ll like it and if you have anything else to add onto this! like ships or anything, like what how do you think the bots bee’s close with would react to this small bug being a triple changer. love your writing!!

Thank you so much! Send as many asks or ramble/ideas as you like 🩷

I like this idea and him not using his seeker frame much despite being one before becoming a grounder is so cool and opens the door for me to say he was raised by the elite trine during the war and at that time sparklings were huge targets and weakness and seekers were being hunted since almost all of them joined the decepticon cause.

So Starscream, Thundercracker and Skywarp would teach Bee to only use his wings when with them in private so he wouldn’t be an even bigger target.

I’m putting my own spin on this saying Bee had what was considered a dysfunctional t-cog since he didn’t have typical seeker wings. Instead he had wings that resembled an actual bumblebee. His door wings would transform and fan out allowing him to take flight. His wings gave off the hum of an actual bee and he was quite fast in the air but he couldn’t reach the same feats regular seekers could but his small stature worked in his favor when it came to speed and agility.

He wasn’t used in the war since the trine didn’t want their sparkling in danger but he still wanted to prove himself and so he would sneak off to Megatron when he was old enough and the mech would give him the job of spying on the autobots.

At first Megatron only sent him to places that weren’t dangerous so he could keep the mini from actual harm since he would not have Starscream or the other two actually trying and succeeding in offlining him for endangering their sparkling.

It wasn’t until Bee had to hide in the lower bowels of autobot territory did he gather important information that later helped him become an actual spy and find a grounder t-cog that was added to his frame later on so he could blend in better.

The trine hated it but Bee was so happy he could do something and prove himself since he was so the smallest, youngest and weakest among their group.

No one really minded since he was the bitty of their ranks along with a few others but Bee did.

Bee had the typical seeker frame that was slender and no bulk with a blade in one arm and a small energy canon in the other. His carriers Starscream, Thundercracker and Skywarp hated the way his frame ended up looking like a femme when he fully became an adult mecha. Bee loved it but they hated it because they didn’t think any bot was worthy to look at their baby while Bee had to suffer getting spike blocked by his carriers and all the older bots who would shove the mechs his age away from him.

Bee loved his carriers but he needed a moment, just a moment, away from them.

That moment turned into him being kidnapped and taken as a “survivor” in autobot clutches.

Bee immediately commed his carriers and Megatron only to see Longarm who he knew was actually Shockwave in disguise. He managed to find a moment alone with the shape changer and reveal a hidden servo code in case the mech didn’t know who he was.

“I know exactly who you are little bee. I’ve already alerted your carriers and Lord Megatron of your location just as you have. You were smart to do so but not smart to go off on your own like that.”

“Im a grown mecha I can have a moment alone!”

He had little flicks of electricity dancing between his horns at his frustration and Shockwave didn’t make it any better when he laughed calling him a sparkling.

“That may be, but you are still a youngling at spark.”

“Ugh!”

The plan was to get Bee to a certain location so the cons could grab him but the autobots snatched Bee when Shockwave was busy at a council meeting and took him onto the command ship lead by Sentinel Prime and Jazz who has held Optimus Prime, Ratchet, Bulkhead and Prowl along with Jetfire and Jetstorm.

Bee wakes up to his carriers frantic comms and Shockwaves massages along with Megatron demanding his status.

He immediately shares optic feed with his carriers out of fear because he’s never been away from them, not like this. Not since they found him at the hot spot waiting for their cna to make complete him.

He sheds a few static fluids trying to put on a brave face plate only to be completely terrified by the two mechs Jazz and Prowl sneaking up on him and asking if he was alright.

He’s not proud to admit he shrieked and swiped his claws at them before high tailing. He’s happy he at least did one thing in defense besides run but he was not proud to hide as he tried finding a data room to get coordinates to leave.

Thankfully his carriers and Megatron knew the system he was traveling and his carriers were on their way. But it would take years to get there without a transwarp, he told them as much and all three of his carriers were foaming at the mouth at the realization they had to leave him to get back home himself.

“I’ll come back to you…I promise..I’ll gather any intel that could be useful while playing my role. Any luck and I can make my way back to him on Cybertron.”

They knew who bee meant and they still didn’t like it but Bee tried to put on the front of a brave soldier and Megatron respected him enough to humor it even if he was shaking at the vocalizer.

“Please don’t forget me,” he whispered before he cut transmission off and stood.

Luck was on his side because autobots never knew his existence thanks to careful crafting and his amazing gift of espionage despite his loud mouth and colorful frame. He really was one of the best spies the cons had to offer and he trained under the best with watchful optics from his carriers.

But now he was a grown mech on his own and it was time he grew up.

“Kid, I know you’re scared but we won’t hurt ya. We just wanted ta check on ya,” Bee jumped in surprise at the sound of the older mech so close to him.

He looked behind himself to see all the mechs on board giving him a sympathetic gaze and he hated it.

He had knowledge on who each bot was in the room and the one he truly disliked was the aft head making his way towards him with a frown on his face and a pipe up his exhaust port.

“Don’t go causing any more trouble just because you’re scared civi. Got it!”

He wanted to upper cut the spikeless mech but the one named Optimus stepped forward quite literally pushing Sentinel out of the way and bending a little to speak to Bee politely.

“We should’ve had a better plan and someone friendly like Bulkhead here to greet you when you woke but we were preoccupied. I apologize for the panic we’ve caused you. Please, ask any questions you’d like and I’ll do my best to answer.”

“Please don’t bend down to talk to me I’m not a new spark I’m almost a two million years old.”

“Not a new spark my aft,” Ratchet grouched smirking.

If he didn’t remind Bee of a grandsire he’d be fuming right about now.

“I’m sorry for that,” Optimus’s helm fins moved back in embarrassment and the one named Jazz slung an arm around Prowls waist, probably conjunx judging from the familiarity, as they came a little closer.

“Names Jazz, this here’s my spark Prowler,” “—Just Prowl,” the black and gold mech cut in, “that there’s Bulkhead best space bridge tech in all cybertron, Ratchet the best medic in Cybertron, thee Optimus Prime, the twins Jetfire and Jetstorm and the loveable aft Sentinel.”

“Thats Sentinel Prime, captain of this pitiful crew and ship to you lieutenant Jazz.”

Bee could think of plenty of ways to make Sentinels offlining look like an accident but he couldn’t chance it with Ratchet here. That mech would find it and he’d be screwed.

“Where am I and why am I here?”

“We’re heading to a comrade planet and we were told to bring you along because high command couldn’t chance the cons coming after you.”

“What? Coming after me?”

What they took as fear was really Bee hurt that he couldn’t have left sooner.

“Seems some dangerous cons were skulking around to bring you back kid,” Ratchet answered for the group.

“Yeah, a real dangerous group lead by a femme named Strika,” Bulkhead spoke nervously.

“We agreed it best to bring you for your safety and we’re glad we did. An extremely dangerous mech managed to get through some of our best elite guards. He was almost…point is..young one, we’re glad we got to you and left on time.”

Optimus spoke to him in a tone that would be comforting if thats what his situation required. But as it stands he didn’t need their comfort, he needed freedom to return home and the knowledge he was so close yet ripped from it while recharging left him feeling a piece of his spark tear.

“What..what was their designation?”

They looked nervous to say but one spoke up.

“A triple changer by the name Blitzwing tore his way through. He was adamant about getting to you. He wouldn’t stop following us until we jumped through the space bridge. After that received word he was erratic before leaving.”

Bee couldn’t stop himself from dropping to the floor boards staring at nothing.

Blitzwing…

Blitzwing came for him..

He ignored his carriers embarrassing rejections of never being allowed near their sparkling.

He went out on his own to find him.

Blitzwing.

The one mech who always made him laugh and left his favorite flowers on his berth cushion every week.

The same mech who made him helm crystals by servo.

The same crystals he’d kept tucked away in his locked subspace for fear of them being taken or broken.

Blitzwing..Blitzwing came looking for him and only left because he had to.

He still felt for Bee.

And now he may never get to see the mech again.

“Blitz…”

The other’s took his response as fear but his spark cried out for the only one he wanted.

As they tried to get through him, his resolve solidified further.

He would get home.

Hello again! If it's okay to request could you do another part of this request (Elita One's twin sister w/ Sg Blackarachnia)?

The reactions/interactions of other Cons, Strika (with her team) and starscream's clones

Thank you and take care of yourself!

I think this Buddy is one of my favorites to write about right now!

I don't have much information on Strika and her team, so I tried something.

Hope you enjoy!

Elita One's twin sister with the personality of SG! Blackarachnia meeting Strika, Cyclonus, Skywarp, and Thundercracker

SFW, Platonic, Hinted Romance, Cybertronain (techno organic) reader

TFA

Buddy met Strika and Cyclonus on one of Strika’s visits.

Every now and then, Strika or Lugnut, would request leave to go see each other.

This time it was Strika’s turn.

She brought along Cylonus to meet up with the new chief medical officer. His last battle had earned him some new dents and their medic was on leave.

She had heard a lot about her through Lugnuts talks.

And she was curious to say the least.

“My Spark!”--Lugnut

“Lugnut dear.”--Strika

“How was today’s mission? Did everything go all right? How many Autobots did you manage to hit this time?”--Lugnut

“To many to count. Cyclonus earned some new dentings today—”--Strika

“When you visit, we will have Buddy on standby!”--Lugnut

“Buddy? What kind of Decepticon name is that?”--Strika

“She is our newest medic, former Autobot medic actually.”--Lugnut

“What! You have a former Autobot in your ranks! What does Megatron think about this!”--Strika

Lugnut think about all the times he has barged in on Megatron talking with Buddy and the times Megatron brings up Buddy randomly in a conversation.

“Lord Megatron trust her.”--Lugnut

“Do you trust her?”--Strika

“Absoluetly!”--Lugnut

“…”--Strika

“She is quite a brilliant medic my spark. She will have Cyclonus ready on his pedes in no time!”--Lugnut

“… All right.”--Strika

The space bridges were a bit unstable at the moment and would only allow two at a time for only two times.

Why?

Blame space bridge mechanics.

Lugnut was the first to greet the two when they come out of the portal.

“STRIKA!”--Lugnut

Lugnut nearly tackling down his Conjux down in a hug.

“Lugnut, my spark.”--Strika

Strika hugging back.

“Cyclonus! Greetings!”--Lugnut

Lugnut patting Cyclonus a bit too hard on the back.

“Lugnut, my spark, you’re going to give him more dents.”--Strika

“That is fine. Buddy is in the med bay as we speak.”--Lugnut

As the three of them made their passing around Strika greeting the nearby Decepticons and eventually greeting their leader. He sat on his throne waiting for them to come by.

“Lord Megatron. It has been too long.”--Strika

“Lord Megatron.”--Cyclonus

“At ease. How has travel fair you both.”--Megatron

“The space bridge needs work in the teleportation, it will take more time but faster once we recapture the bridges.”--Strika

“Good. Cyclonus?”--Megatron

“My liege.”--Cyclonus

“You suffered through battle is my guess.”--Megatron

“Yes, our last mission. Lugnut insiteted in having this ‘Buddy’ check him in.”--Strika

“Hmm… A wise choice Lugnut.”--Megatron

“Something I’d never associate.”--Starscream

“Do you have something to say Starscream?”--Strika

“Nothing Strika!”--Starscream

“Let us go to the med bay, shall we?”—Megatron

As they walked to the med bay the two new Cons were trying to imagine what this medic looked like. Especially with an odd name like ‘Buddy’.

Megatron opened the door and the sight they saw surprised them greatly.

A giant mechanical creature was dangling from the ceiling suspended by some webs before transforming into a cybertronain.

Techno organic was the phrase used.

“Hello! You must be Strika and Cyclonus, correct?”--Buddy

“Yes.”--Strika

“Yes.”--Cyclonus

“It’s an honor to meet members from Team Obsidian. I am not too familiar with the other teams we have, mainly with our team here.”--Buddy

“Hmm…”--Strika

“Buddy, Cyclonus requires your assistance.”--Megatron

“What happened? Oh… so many dents… Well, come to the slab, I’ll have all the materials out in a second.”--Buddy

Cyclonus sitting on the med slab getting to work using her webs to help.

“Where does that come from?”--Cyclonus

“… Do you really want to know?”--Buddy

“…”--Cyclonus

“I must say there are a number on—by the Allspark what hit you in the back?!”--Buddy

“Lugnut would you mind telling them?”--Cyclonus

“Lugnut?! Lugnut we’ve talked about this.”--Buddy

“You’ve talked about what?”--Strika

“If someone is hurt…”--Buddy

“… reframe from the pats.”--Lugnut

“Exactly. It took a while to try and put Starscream’s servo again after that.”--Buddy

With the aid of her webs only increased her speed and efficiency in the med bay.

Strika was a bit impressed, not that she would say it out loud.

Cyclonus just watched her until she was finished with the work.

He thanked her quietly and made his way back to Strika.

“Buddy.”--Strika

“Strika? Are you hurt as well?”--Buddy

“You’re hurt! Why didn’t you tell me!?”--Lugnut

“I would like a routine check-up. In private.”--Strika

Everyone leaves the med bay except Buddy and Strika.

Strika sits on the med slab as Buddy begins the routine check-up.

“…What is your relationship with my Conjux?”--Strika

Buddy nearly dropping their data pad.

“What?”--Buddy

“You heard me. What’s so special about you that’s got Lugnut like this?”--Strika

“Oh. Is it about the techno organic thing? Or the spider slashing? No, no probably the poems—”--Buddy

“Slashing?”--Strika

“Ummm… I think you’d might want to hear that one from Lugnut.”--Buddy

“Tell me.”--Strika

“… One of the spiders, gigantic, way bigger than the ones on Earth, that turned me into… well this, was going to attack Megatron. I slashed it into shreds before it could even breathe the same air as he could.”--Buddy

“And you did this knowing full well who he was.”--Strika

“…”--Buddy

“Lugnut told me about you being a former Autobot medic.”--Strika

“Ah. That makes sense. But to answer your question, yes, I knew who he was and what he had done… but no one and I mean NO ONE should ever have to go through it.”--Buddy

“…”--Strika

“Lugnut was there and likes to make the story sound like an epic. To him it probably was.”--Buddy

“Ha! Yes, he does tend to make everything a spectacular sometime.”--Strika

“You two seem like a loving couple. Its nice to see every now and then.”--Buddy

“…”--Strika

“And… You are officially done! Everything seems to be fine. Though I might recommend letting the servos take a break every now and then. It’ll help in the long run.”--Buddy

“…Thank you…”--Strika

“You’re welcome! Just doing my job after all.”--Buddy

“You know what I meant Buddy.”--Strika

Buddy just smiling tiredly at Strika who gives her a nice pat on the back.

“We should start heading out. You did come all this way for Lugnut afterall. I don’t want to be keeping you from him.”--Buddy

“Let us go.”--Strika

Strika opens the door only to be nearly crushed by a hug from Lugnut.

“My Spark! Are you okay?! What happened? Why did it take so long!?”--Lugnut

“Everything’s fine Lugnut. You’re looking at a very healthy war frame right here.”--Buddy

“Thank you.”--Strika

“Any time you’re in the sector and need some mending, you’ll know who to call.”--Buddy

“Yes, one of the finest medics in the Decepticon army.”--Megatron

“Well, maybe not the—”--Buddy

“I meant what I said.”--Megatron

When it’s time for the two to go, Cyclonus silently thanks the medic before being the first to exit the spacebridge.

Strika says her final goodbyes to Lugnut before patting Buddy on the back.

She plans on helping Buddy find a better suited weapon than what they have on base.

Strika enters the portal hearing the longing goodbyes of her Conjux behind her.

Couldn't find any gifs of Strika or Cyclunus. So have a Lugnut instead.

Buddy met some of the clones through Starscream.

Starscream introduced her to Skywarp and Thundercracker.

He would have introduced everyone, but they weren’t around at the moment, and he was getting impatient.

Skywarp was terrified of Buddy actively recoiling at any attempt to touch or even look directly in the optics.

It stung a bit for Buddy.

She hadn’t gotten a reaction like that in a long time.

“Hey… I know I look scary and all… but I promise I’m not going to hurt you.”--Buddy

“That’s what they all say before slapping or hurting me! And you’re a—a—”--SKywarp

“Complete that sentence and I’ll—”—Starscream

“Starscream!”--Buddy

“What?”--Starscream

“Let him come to me when he feels comfortable. Its no-good trying to force companionship, let him come to me by himself.”--Buddy

“…Fine. Have it your way.”--Starscream

Thundercracker however prideful he was making a passing comment on Buddy’s weird frame.

Buddy tries to not let the rude comments get to her.

Starscream defends her as soon as he sees the first flinch.

Starscream grabbing Thundercracker’s servo harshly.

“I swear that if you even think about talking ill about her frame again! I will personally be your judge and jury!”--Starscream

“Judge and Jury? Pft! Don’t make me laugh! Is that susposed to scare me.”--Thundercracker

“Megatron is your executioner.”--Starscream

“… your just jealous.”--Thundercracker

“Jealous! Jealous of what?! You insensitive little—”--Starscream

“ENOUGH!”--Buddy

Silence.

“… I still win.”--Thundercracker

“How did you win anything!?”--Starscream

Meanwhile…

Megatron flying around outside.

“…Something doesn’t feel right…”--Megatron

Even after Buddy semi explains that she is a technorganic, he still boastfully goes on about his frame being far more superior than hers.

After a bit she ends up tuning him out.

After a few minutes later Skywarp starts asking some questions about Buddy, in which she tries to explain some things to the clone.

“Where do your webs come from?”--Skywarp

“Umm… how about I show you what I can do with them.”--Buddy

“Oh, okay.”--Skywarp

Buddy wrapping a bit of webbing to Skywarp’s chassis and hers.

She shoots out some webs to the ceiling, making the two-hang upside down.

Thundercracker and Starscream looking like they are about to have a fist fight any second.

“Isn’t this fun?!”--Buddy

Skywarp looking like he was about to faint.

“Yes, a little bit…”--Skywarp

“I can bring you down—”--Buddy

“No! I mean I can stay here with you for a bit longer.”--Skywarp

“Okay… just let me know when you want to get down.”--Buddy

“Okay.”--Skywarp

This gets out a reaction from Thundercracker how tries to do some stunts to get their attention.

Which leads to the fist fight with Starscream.

Now Buddy is wheeling the Second in Command and the blue seeker to the med bay with another purple seeker clinging to her back.

Buddy wheeled Starscream and Thundercracker to the med bay with Skywarp koala hugging Buddy from the back.

Megatron enters the room.

“… Do I even want to know?”--Megatron

“…I think it would be best if you didn’t ask.”--Buddy

Megatron glaring at Skywarp as they all head to the med bay.

“…I leave the base for 1 hour…”--Megatron

“Lord Megatron!”--Lugnut

Megatron taking in a deep vent.

“Yes, Lugnut?”--Megatron
