1. Perceptor was sent to Earth for one reason. Since he has experience from Xantium, he’s the only one with the expertise to bring the Ark out of stasis.
2. Ravage gets fed up with the other cassettes antics and seeks refuge – by going to the Ark. Actually, what he did was walk up to Mirage, curl up beside his feet, and dropped into stasis.
3. Ravage goes ballistic when he comes across some kids torturing an old cat. The Autobots aren’t sure what to think of this.
4. Perceptor used to be a gladiator in Kaon. The Twins were the closest things to friends he had back then. Vorns later, the two become intent on protecting him when they end up in the same unit. (I’m thinking that Perceptor wouldn’t have been a good gladiator – he just doesn’t strike me as blood-thirsty enough.)
5. It’s easy to control Perceptor – all you have to do is give him new things to learn as a reward for good behavior. And take away his projects as punishment.
6. Sunstreaker and Sideswipe have an argument. The kind that can’t ever really be completely recovered from.
7. Slag/Beachcomber. (Crack, anyone?)
8. After all the years of being abandoned on the side of the road by Sam, his only real friend, Miles has developed some issues about riding with others. Unsurprisingly, this extends to giant alien robots as well.
9. Mikaela doesn’t understand why Miles is so intent on despising her existence. Sam can’t find it in himself to explain how things seem to the blond. (Because in the beginning of the movie Mikaela was, basically, the stereo-typical ‘jock concubine’. Then she magically became awesome after S7 showed up.)
10. (Pre-Earth) The Twins have taken it upon themselves to court their new CMO, Ratchet. Imagine their surprise when he tells them that, no, he won’t interface with them – they need to meet his trine-mates first, at least. Meanwhile, Wheeljack and Perceptor are trying to finish their schooling as quickly as possible so that they can join their older friend, but are meeting with some difficulties due to the fact that… Well, basically the entire campus despising their existence. When Prime, Prowl, Mirage, Sunstreaker and Sideswipe come to visit, the Dean points out ‘Jack and Perce as the most likely to join the Decepticons. (I’d imagine that the Twins don’t know that ‘Jack and Perceptor are Ratchets trine mates.)
11. Megatron has an epiphany – he has everything he needs to control Starscream in Skywarp and Thundercracker.
12. Xantium despises Optimus Prime. After all – everyone says that he’s such a great leader, but as far as she’s concerned, he has nothing on Springer.
13. …A thought occurs. Xantium/Ark.
14. Groove decides that the Decepticons just need some help with their anger management skills. Hot Shot thinks he’s lost his mind.
15. A member of the Ark gets captured and nobody quite knows what to think when Red Alert asks for himself, Inferno, and Perceptor to be allowed to do an extraction. Nor do they know what to think when they come back not only healthy, but visibly less stressed. Or when they find out exactly what kind of destruction the three had unleashed on the Decepticons. “What do you expect – we’re Wreckers. It’s what we specialize in.”
16. The Wreckers are not a gestalt – that doesn’t mean that they’re not just as close to each other as gestalt members are, though.
17. Swoop offers an actual explanation for why the Dinobots believe the strongest should rule. And points out the fact that, if you don’t have enough to use your strength, than you’re not exactly the strongest, are you?
18. There’s petro-rabbits and petro-foxes. So… are there petro-fish?
19. Pre-Earth, Pre-War. Prowl and Jazz have known each other since their sparkling years, on the streets. Once they got old enough, they took to surviving the only way they knew how – thievery. Prowl gets captured, and vorns later, Optimus Prime learns that the tactician has been little more than Sentinal’s slave.
Edit: I've fixed the spellings of 'Ark'. ...I really need to pay more attention to things like that.

Date: 2008-06-25 10:02 am (UTC)*looks up Xantium* Excellent idea!
2. Ravage gets fed up with the other cassettes antics and seeks refuge – by going to the Arc. Actually, what he did was walk up to Mirage, curl up beside his feet, and dropped into stasis.
Mirage: *stares*
Hound: *smirks* "Looks like you got a new friend!"
Mirage: *glares*
4. Perceptor used to be a gladiator in Kaon. The Twins were the closest things to friends he had back then. Vorns later, the two become intent on protecting him when they end up in the same unit. (I’m thinking that Perceptor wouldn’t have been a good gladiator – he just doesn’t strike me as blood-thirsty enough.
Blood-thirsty enough, definitely not. Skilled enough, oh yes. *loves the idea of the Twins protecting Perceptor*
5. It’s easy to control Perceptor – all you have to do is give him new things to learn as a reward for good behavior. And take away his projects as punishment.
This seems like it would be very effective. If they can bring themselves to actually take his projects away.
Perceptor: *puppy eyes*
Optimus: "Must. Resist. Cute."
Perceptor: *baby seal eyes*
Optimus: "Gyahhh! Here!" *shoves project into Perceptor's hands and runs away*
Perceptor: *evil grin*
10.
*doesn't feel like copying the whole thing* Hmmm... sounds like the Twins might be a bit older than Perceptor and Wheeljack. Or not. I wonder why everyone would hate them. Because they're so smart? Because they tend to blow things up?
I wonder if the Dean honestly believes that or if he's doing it out of spite. And I wonder how the Ark crew will react to these possible Decepticons (especially the Twins... and no, I don't think they'd know either).
15.
None of the Ark crew is going to look at them the same way again. *giggles* And neither will the Decepticons!
Thundercracker: *notices Starscream hiding under his berth* "What's wrong with you?"
Starscream: "I just realize how much danger I was in during that mess with the Negavator."
*loves the idea of Wrecker!Perceptor*
16. The Wreckers are not a gestalt – that doesn’t mean that they’re not just as close to each other as gestalt members are, though.
Wrecker puppy pile! Seriously though, someone needs to write this.
17. Swoop offers an actual explanation for why the Dinobots believe the strongest should rule. And points out the fact that, if you don’t have enough to use your strength, than you’re not exactly the strongest, are you?
Hmmm... and who would he offer this explanation to? Optimus? Ironhide? Prowl? I'm thinking Ironhide for some reason.
18. There’s petro-rabbits and petro-foxes. So… are there petro-fish?
There are imaginary petro-fish swimming through all the little rainbow bubbles.
"Hello, Delirium."
"I came to see the Seer. If I gave him my eye would he see what I see, all the little ribbons and bows binding the arms of war?"
... MOVING ON!
20.
System errors... Me thinks that they will all assume it's caused by something else, since they don't know he has that programming. And they might try to correct this other thing they think it is. Which could mess him up even more.
Hopefully, Sunstreaker will realize what's happening in time to help. But can he convince Ratchet, at least, that what he says is true?
And you're spelling Ark two different ways: Ark and Arc.

Date: 2008-06-25 03:17 pm (UTC)Yay for Wrecker!Perceptor!!
This seems like it would be very effective. If they can bring themselves to actually take his projects away.
Perceptor: *puppy eyes*
Optimus: "Must. Resist. Cute."

Perceptor: *evil grin*
This bunny was actually spawned with number four. It involved the Twins being the only one's to realize how easy it was to control Perceptor with knowledge, since that was how the (owner's?) of the gladiator pits controlled Perceptor while he was there. And the Twins get majorly pissed off at everyone. I keep seeing Ratchet taking a datapad away from Perceptor when he won't drink his energon, before Sideswipe and Sunstreaker confront him... I also see the entire Ark getting confused as all get out because the Twins are bringing him books from the library.

Pssh - laziness will get you nowhere in life. Anyway, the Twins are a bit older than Perceptor and Wheeljack, but not terribly so. For Wheeljack... Yeah, it's cause he blows stuff up a lot. And because he knows Perceptor - they hate Perceptor because they found out about him being a triple changer (in this continuity, they're just born that way.)
The Dean honestly believes that they're Decepticons - mainly because the two get blamed for lots of things they didn't do and because they 'start' lots of 'fights' (aka. everyone tries to beat them up and they have to try to avoid hurting anyone on accident...) Since they tend to come out on top during these fights, it's logical to think that they're the ones starting them.
None of the Ark crew is going to look at them the same way again. *giggles* And neither will the Decepticons!
Thundercracker: *notices Starscream hiding under his berth* "What's wrong with you?"
Starscream: "I just realized how much danger I was in during that mess with the Negavator."
*loves the idea of Wrecker!Perceptor*
That's right, Starscream! Feel fear!
*also loves Wrecker!Perceptor*
Hmmm... and who would he offer this explanation to? Optimus? Ironhide? Prowl? I'm thinking Ironhide for some reason.
For some reason, I agree with your thinking. Now if we just figure out why...

I just thought that he'd gotten really, really good at hiding them. Or at least, the most obvious ones - Sunstreaker'd only notice because he knows exactly what happens...

Date: 2008-06-27 10:40 pm (UTC)I would really like someone to write this. What's a five way relationshp called? And why isn't there enough of it!
11. Megatron has an epiphany – he has everything he needs to control Starscream in Skywarp and Thundercracker.
I posted a somewhat similar bunny. Only the idea was that Megatron was using both Skywarp and Thundercraker against each other to stay (threatening in some way what could happen if they left) with the Decepticons.
For this Bunny, maybe it could be that in order for a Trine to exist it is required of each member to join sparks to ensure maximum compatibility?

Date: 2008-06-28 04:33 am (UTC)Ya know, I honestly didn't mean for it to be a five-way... But, hey, I'd still love to read it if it's taken that way. And why isn't there some of it? It's so fun!

I remember that bunny! I like Thundercracker and Skywarp, but I just can't seem to make myself write them...
Could be. I go back and forth on the extent of the realationship between the members of a trine. Still... Threesome!
