Flesh and blood dragons or robotic ones (like Wheeljack created the Dinobots)?
If flesh and blood, would he have found a way to alter DNA to create them or would he have accidentally revived an actual species that everyone only believed to be a myth? This could make an excellent crossover with any fandom that included dragons (I'm thinking DragonHeart but I bet you're thinking Pern).
If robotic, I bet he didn't tell Optimus what he was doing. Optimus would probably see them as 'no better than the Dinobots'. The Dinobots, I think, would love having little 'brothers'. But Optimus could cause a lot of problems (and why do I always see Optimus as the bad guy in Dinobot fics?).
As for releasing them to their natural habitat... Maybe the Dracobots (Dragonbots?) could temporarily share Dinobot island? And the flesh and blood ones would spread out all over the world.
Or he could make both!
Where did the idea of carving a symbol into oneself as a sign of loyalty come from?
I read a fic once where it started as the Quintessons branding their slaves (Product logos) and eventually, after chasing the Quintessons off, it became a symbol to remind them of where they came from (or something). But after a while it just became associated with different models and the true origin was lost. Then when the war started, since most war builds were Decepticons, they chose that as their symbol and it became a sign of loyalty to the Decepticons. Same thing with the Civilian logo and the Autobots. I think. It's been a while since I read it... and it was boring so I didn't read the whole thing. Someone needs to come up with a new reason. Like... like Optimus and Megatron went through a rebellious stage in their youth and got engravings and later decided to use them as symbols of their factions in an attempt to forgot the actual (stupid) reason they got them. And because they really did need symbols for their factions.
*suddenly imagines Optimus and Megatron sitting at a desk, discussing possible symbols* *giggles*
Megatron/Dion
I want to see this. Because, well, it's Dion.
Perceptor/Shockwave/Soundwave
*loves* This would go great with my 'Perceptor is trapped in an arranged marriage' bunny.
Jazz is ferociously protective of his Special Ops agents.
Hmmm. He's protective of Mirage and one day decides to give Hound the Shovel speech! *wants to see this*
Reply Part 2!
