Did you miss me?



1. The Autobots believe Perceptor is a prisoner of the Decepticons. But he's actually the prisoner of another Autobot and is being kept within the depths of the Ark.

2. When the Ark was being built, a killer stashes the body of his latest victim within it's walls. The body is not found and the walls are sealed up. However, the body wasn't as dead as the murderer thought. The victim, a youngling named Perceptor, laid in stasis for a long time while his repair systems worked on his injuries. When he woke up and found himself trapped within the walls of an unknown ship... well, he panicked. Too scared to leave, Perceptor made the walls his home. He made an exit so he could get Energon, but he doesn't stay outside for long. Teletraan is the only one who knows he's there, the semi-sentient computer basically adopting him and teaching him and helping him hide. Some of the other Autobots think he's a ghost. Some believe he doesn't exist at all. But all have heard him at least once during their time on the Ark.

3. Several Autobots find themselves pregnant. And they have no idea how they got that way since none of them have interfaced in a while. So... spawn of Primus? Unicron? Alien Experiment?

4. Smokescreen/Red Alert. Bonding over blackmail.

5. "When is too late, too late?"

6. Perceptor tries to kill himself, changes his mind, panics, and calls Ratchet for help.

7. He was real. And he was no ghost.

8. Consequence free just means the consequences are better hidden.

9. "Red looks like he needs a hug."

10. Crossover. Perceptor has many things in common with Discworld's Death, though he does his best to hide it.

11. Perceptor's lover demands he be perfect. In all things.

12. Consort training school. Perceptor was sent there when he came of age to learn how to be a perfect, obedient lover.

13. He sometimes wondered if he had imagined the smile.

14. "There are some people that he can't handle losing."

15. "They match."

16. When it came to science, it was never a good idea to say no to Perceptor.

36. Art. Red Alert = Little Red Riding Hood.

37. Cliffjumper's habit of calling everyone a traitor? Yeah, it's a glitch.

39. Perceptor was killed. But he's going to hide this fact as long as possible.

40. Smile for him and he'll die happy.

41. "Do you love him?"
"He's a good person."
"That's not what I asked."

42. Perceptor is caught in an explosion (either one of his own or one of Wheeljack's) and is turned into a youngling (yes, youngling, not sparkling). While taking care of him, Ratchet and Wheeljack learn something that surprises them. Perceptor, at this age, does not know how to read, has never been to school, and has, in fact, never seen another of his kind before.

43. Perceptor occasionally got very territorial about his lab.

44. Perceptor is an ex-Vengeance Demon. Inspired by BTVS.

45. 'Transformers are an essential element of Native American religious philosophy, as these supernatural beings are responsible for the creation of the world as it is now in the age of the story-tellers. During the formative age, all beings had the ability to transform both themselves and things around them, as the world was fluid and changing. Hence, both cultural heroes and villains took part. Some transformations were intentional, such as the creation of humans and animals, but others were incidental, produced in the course of supernatural events. Transformers ensured that all of nature and culture had an origin that fitted logically into the beliefs and traditions of the tribe, securing a clear and powerful sense of social identity. Examples of Transformers are the culture heroes Coyote, Raven, Tiikuywuuti and Traveler.' ~Mythology of the North American Indian and Inuit Nations by Brian L Molyneaux.

63. "A man whose mind is evil and whose intentions are evil is conscious of that fact and he knows that he must conceal it at all costs. He dare not, therefore, afford any unusual behavior." ~ Death Comes as the End by Agatha Christie.

64. "When he meets me anywhere he has a trick of looking as though I don't exist, as though he saw something behind me, something that isn't there." ~ Death Comes as the End by Agatha Christie.

65. "Life is not a matter of safety."

66. "Can Perceptor ever not think?"

67. "He might be safer not knowing."

68. Banish concealment.

69. Perceptor was a convicted murderer before the war. However, his intelligence was needed and so Optimus had him released and his records erased.

70. Perceptor: "What could I possibly need from you?"

71. "Do you see them as pawns on a chessboard? Toys on the playground? Things that exist only to amuse you?"

72. "We will be seen and heard."

73. Blaster + Moodswings = Strange music at odd hours of the night.

74. Tracks and Jazz fight over Blaster.

76. "Some secrets are worth dying for."

77. "I'd die for you!"
"But will you live for me?"

78. Following sound into silence.

79. "That conscience of yours? Lose it." Poirot Investigates by Agatha Christie.

80. Crossover with Nightmare on Elm Street. I caught the last half of that the other day. It was kind of funny. Though I don't think my cousin should have allowed her six year old niece to watch it.

81. Ratchet: "Perceptor, you're pregnant. That means you cannot spend days on end in your lab."
Perceptor: *pouts*

82. I was visiting my Grandmother. She has a fire extinguisher labeled First Alert. So... First Aid/Red Alert, anyone?

84. "This place thrives on child labor."

85. Art. Swoop holding a sparkling Perceptor.

90. Perceptor was killed when he was a youngling. His creators created another Perceptor and pretended the first never existed. But then Perceptor starts having dreams... Inspired by a book I read years ago called (I think) My Sweet Audrina by VC Andrews. I haven't even looked at the book in forever though, so I might have gotten it confused with another.

91. A TV network makes an offer. Wheeljack and Perceptor's Science Hour.

92. "Everyone turns into a sparkling at least once during their adult life."

93. "It's impossible to get anything done when you have nothing to distract you."

131. Art. Perceptor laying on the floor of the washracks.

154. He tried to save Perceptor... but he just made Perceptor's situation worse.

However, Eject soon becomes bored and decides that there would be no harm in taking Blaster to a game. After all, the game is inside, what harm could it do?

171. They had said that there was no need to worry. And they ended up being the ones who worried the most.

182. "If you were a blind mech in a world of blind mechs, and suddenly found yourself able to see... How would you describe the wonders around you? Could you?"

184. Perceptor is easy, but only under the right circumstances.

185. Red Alert has finally glitched beyond repair and is placed in a mental institution. Inferno visits as often as he can. Sometimes, he's not even sure Red Alert recognizes him.

Warning: Not-Maggy - my non-RP Ultra Magnus muse - has commentated extensively on some of these plotbunnies.


3. Several Autobots find themselves pregnant. And they have no idea how they got that way since none of them have interfaced in a while. So... spawn of Primus? Unicron? Alien Experiment?

The alien experiment part reminded me of this (http://cracktrans1.pbwiki.com/f/Buttraep+of+Ultra+Magnus.JPG), which resulted in this (http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y180/MajinBakaHentai/game%20screencaps/Starwingv2-3closeup.jpg) (the toddler the purple clown is holding).

13. He sometimes wondered if he had imagined the smile.
This one made me think it's about Sunstreaker, for some reason.

40. Smile for him and he'll die happy.
Not-Maggy says this is something Rodimus said to Optimus after Optimus returned to life.

61. Perceptor is Sixshot's creator.

62. Perceptor is going to have a sparkling. Springer is the proud father. The other Wreckers find out that yes, there is something Springer is terrified of.

Somehow, I think these two could go together... Springer is Sixshot's other creator.



77. "I'd die for you!"
"But will you live for me?"

Not-Maggy also claimed Rodimus said something akin to this in the same conversation as bunny #40.

90. Perceptor was killed when he was a youngling. His creators created another Perceptor and pretended the first never existed. But then Perceptor starts having dreams... Inspired by a book I read years ago called (I think) My Sweet Audrina by VC Andrews. I haven't even looked at the book in forever though, so I might have gotten it confused with another.
This one would be interesting if whoever picked it up knew the book (and yes, you have the right book, though I'd quibble about the writer - Virginia Andrews died in 1986 and anything labelled "VC Andrews is by the ghost writer who her family hired after her death. My Sweet Audrina was definitely a Virgina Andrews book) and carried out the same basic plot.

Basically, Audrina didn't have an older sister, the perfect older sister she always heard about was really herself, from before a rape she suffered and trauma made her blank out her life.

It's possible that this plotbunny could be allied with 155 - 155. You know those people who lure people into their homes and trap them, rape them, and keep them until they tire of them? Well, Perceptor was once a victim of one of them.


108. Optimus and Megatron are locked in a room together and are told to work out their differences.
All I can say is LOL - I want someone to write this!

115. He didn't want him, but he didn't want anyone else to have him either.
Another one Not-Maggy pounced on - he had stalker who submitted a song to a regular Autobot music game (I'm going to post a summary of the Music Game soon) that says something very like this. The song was intended to slam Rodimus, whom Magnus was bonded to (under unnusual circumstances).

The song really exists, it's titled "He Don't Love You", by the Australian band Human Nature.

128. Perceptor is Hot Rod's creator.
Yet another Not-Maggy found intrieguing - the mega-bunny I mentioned about, with the stalker, has a situation where Rodimus Prime is badly injured. It'd put a bit of a different tilt on Perceptor's part if he's Roddy's creator.

86. 2007. Grimlock and Swoop have a sparkling... named Perceptor. They were shocked and pleased when they realize how intelligent their child is.

129. Perceptor wanted real parents. Parents who asked where he had been. Parents who made sure he did his homework. Parents who were parents, not these overgrown kids who created him. Parents who supported him, encouraged him...

These two struck me as also being able to go together.


P.S. Your HTML is faulty - it's an italics tag in bunny #70 that's wrong.

For both 40 and 77 - the scene is basically this:

Magnus has become bonded to Rodimus Prime to heal a spark-wound Rodimus got in battle. This happens only weeks after Rodimus became Prime.
Sometime later, Optimus is reserected, and Roddy is trying to persuade a stubbornly honourable Optimus that he needs to accept Magnus' love again, because it is practically destroying Magnus that Optimus is holding him at arm's length over the bonding (especially when Roddy is quite willing for Optimus and Magnus to be together).

Both quotes, I see Roddy saying something akin to them in that conversation - that if Optimus would even just smile for Magnus, it'd make Magnus happy, and that Magnus would die for Optimus, though it'd be preferable if he lived for him instead - if Optimus would just let him do so.


As for the whole mega-bunny, it is now posted.

1. The Autobots believe Perceptor is a prisoner of the Decepticons. But he's actually the prisoner of another Autobot and is being kept within the depths of the Ark.

And probably even Perceptor thinks he's with the 'Cons...

2. ...Too scared to leave, Perceptor made the walls his home. He made an exit so he could get Energon, but he doesn't stay outside for long. Teletraan is the only one who knows he's there, the semi-sentient computer basically adopting him and teaching him and helping him hide. Some of the other Autobots think he's a ghost. Some believe he doesn't exist at all. But all have heard him at least once during their time on the Ark.

*sings, badly* The PHAAAAAAAAAntom of the Ark-era is theeerrree... insiiiiiide your miiiiind!

4. Smokescreen/Red Alert. Bonding over blackmail.

Bonding as in bonding, or bonding?

9. "Red looks like he needs a hug."

Inferno sees his newest bestest friend in kindergarten and goes over to introduce himself with a glomp-from-behind. Red thinks someone is attacking him and flails madly, knocking Inferno out. But since this is *combat* kindergarten, Red is praised for this (and he'd never been praised for anything in his life, ever). He nervously apologizes to Inferno when he comes back online, but Inferno just laughs and waves it off. It's the start of a beautiful relationship.

15. "They match."

I think I've seen this somewhere in reference to Starscream and Skyfire.

23. A pet that is a perfect angel around it's owner, but a little devil with everyone else.

Perceptor as the pet, maybe? Technically, a microscope *could* be like a little pet... Oh, wait...

145. "He is not a pet."

Oh. Whoops. :)

27. Blaster's first curse. This one was the result of a typo.

As in profanity, or magic? Or both?

28. "I loved you."
"... Don't you mean love?"
"No."


I'm thinking Skyfire & Starscream again. Either one could be either speaker.

29. Perceptor is badly injured in an attack, passes out, and wakes up bonded. "I'm not a medic! It was the only thing I could think of to keep your spark from fading!"

*loves* I want to see this with a 'Con. Megatron ordered him to keep the prisoner alive at all costs, and...

31. Going with the 'Blaster's Cassettes are his Creators' idea. How does he feel about being under his Creators' constant supervision?

Sudden thought. Can Blaster and Soundwave lock their chest compartments so the cassettes can't get out? What would it be like for them to have their kid able to lock them inside himself and ignore them?

35. Art. Red Alert looking all paranoid, wearing a tinfoil hat.

Artemis Fowl books!

36. Art. Red Alert = Little Red Riding Hood.

Whoa, total opposites! Too trusting & too paranoid!

42. Perceptor is caught in an explosion (either one of his own or one of Wheeljack's) and is turned into a youngling (yes, youngling, not sparkling). While taking care of him, Ratchet and Wheeljack learn something that surprises them. Perceptor, at this age, does not know how to read, has never been to school, and has, in fact, never seen another of his kind before.

This could go with that one where Perceptor is secretly loyal to the Quintessons or was a Quintesson slave but is afraid to tell anyone.

43. Perceptor occasionally got very territorial about his lab.

Like, lubricating in corners and biting people who come in?

50. "All it takes is a voice that becomes a hundred, then a thousand. Unless it is silenced." ~Newsies.

What would it be like if Optimus or Megatron had been 'silenced' too early?

51. Until Perceptor joined the Autobots, he didn't have a name.

This is related to a bunny that I just thought up just now.

59. "Fear is only incomplete knowledge. When we know then there will be no more fear." ~ Death Comes as the End by Agatha Christie.

Perceptor compulsively hoards knowledge because he's afraid. Like a really smart tankoscope squirrel.

Blaster: *crying in the corner*

Sorry, Blaster! I know I really shouldn't do that. *hugs*

Oh. Soundwave has a mask!! TF Phantom of the Opera with Soundwave = Phantom, Blaster = Christine, and Tracks = Raoul (RAOUL! XD)!

Ironhide: *glares* "You've never owned one have you?"

Ironhide owns Perceptor? So, that brings in the 'Autobots bought Perceptor as a slave' bunny...

Actually, with this one, I was thinking Blaster said this about Steeljaw.

Oh. My. Primus. *is stunned* A bunny that hasn't been twisted to fit Perceptor? You're... you're not predictable anymore! Wait, did you get kidnapped by the 'Cons? Is it really Starscream writing this or something?

Steeljaw: *currently a chicken* "Cluck."

An organic chicken? A big organic chicken? Or... a ROBOT chicken?? XD

If I was one of the Cassettes, I would have programmed in a safety release or something.

Soundwave: Flight capability: disabled. *is falling*
Cassettes: *pop out wearing parachutes and wave to Soundwave as he tumbles*

Who would be the Wolf, do you think?

I suppose his glitch could be the wolf, in a metaphorical way. And Inferno is the woodsman guy who rescues Red. Who's Red's grandmother?

[identity profile] alabaster-demon.livejournal.com 2008-08-22 01:08 am (UTC)(link)
Hey, it does! I hadn't noticed! But this would make him more a pet than a slave... *thinks* Are slaves/pets considered sentient? People may think they're only mimicking their behavior, instead of actually being self aware like they are. The 'pets' would probably take advatage of that belief.

... Now I want to see Spike or Sparkplug talking to Perceptor and Bumblebee asking why they are talking to a dumb animal. Can you imagine the humans' reaction?


Mmmphf. More ideas: A Decepticon agent hidden among the Autobots buys Perceptor from a slave dealer to use his powers or knowledge, then alters the 'paperwork' to make it look like he bought Perceptor from a legitimate exotic pet shop. If the Autobots saw a slave doing super awesome sciencey stuff, they might consider freeing and recruiting him; but if the 'Con agent told them Percy was a pet, not only would they not object morally, but if they saw him playing around with science equipment (or trying to communicate a plea for help), they'd just say 'Oh, how cute!' and shoo him away from the lab.

As for Grandma... Firestar?

Firestar: *shrieks* I'm not that old!!

64. "When he meets me anywhere he has a trick of looking as though I don't exist, as though he saw something behind me, something that isn't there."

Reminds me of a fic I read where Orion becomes Optimus, thinks Ariel is dead, meets and falls for Megatron, then meets Elita-1.

69. Perceptor was a convicted murderer before the war. However, his intelligence was needed and so Optimus had him released and his records erased.

!!!!! This goes with that other bunny (I can never remember where they are)!!! With Perceptor being a lone member of a gestalt! Perceptor is a Combaticon!!

71. "Do you see them as pawns on a chessboard? Toys on the playground? Things that exist only to amuse you?"

Hmm... Unicron, talking to Primus.

76. "Some secrets are worth dying for."

77. "I'd die for you!"
"But will you live for me?"


So... someone who is the living embodiment of a secret?

91. A TV network makes an offer. Wheeljack and Perceptor's Science Hour.

Competing with Mythbusters for viewers and ratings. Showdown! 'This here TV network ain't big enough for the both of us!'

93. "It's impossible to get anything done when you have nothing to distract you."

Hmmm. Megatron musing about Starscream.

108. Optimus and Megatron are locked in a room together and are told to work out their differences.

And by the end of it, they refuse to come out.

111. Perceptor: "Some things you are better off not knowing. Even I know that."

Maybe Perceptor is better off not knowing that there are things that he's better off not knowing?

118. Crossover with Star Wars. A sparkling is found and thinks C3PO is Daddy.

R2-D2 is Optimus and Starscream's secret sparkling. It was sent to another dimension by accident, and when Optimus defended the scientist who had done it (because the scientist hadn't done anything wrong; the sparkling had somehow entered a restricted area), Starscream was disgusted that Optimus' love of justice was greater than his love of his sparkling and so he left him.

127. The one thing Perceptor never learns: That some people don't deserve forgiveness.

What if he does learn it, but mistakenly applies it to himself?

134. An untended open wound, becoming corroded and tainting their energon. Energon poisoning.

Sounds like a complex metaphor for a Cybertronian society.

140. Once they pull anything off, they're sorry about it.

I'll try and be a little original - instead of the twins, maybe this is referring to the 'Cons.

169. "Fowl!"
"You mean foul."
"No. Fowl."


Artemis!

173. What if the Titanic had been a Transformer?

It was a Transformer... Wait! It was Hound's brother!
...I can explain. Okay. 2007verse. So Hound's brother had the same holographic ability, but he was much more skilled with it. He sees a Decepticon war cruiser coming toward him, preparing to ram him, and he knows that all the humans are doomed if he doesn't do something. Thinking fast, he realizes there's no way to rescue himself if he wants to save any of the humans. The Decepticon cruiser was cloaked, invisible - wait! The 'Con cruiser was Mirage's brother! Yes! So Hound's brother creates a hologram covering the cruiser to make it look like an iceberg (because he loved Earth's nature as much as his brother would later when he arrived, so he wanted to die as a result of a great force of nature), so this big iceberg appears out of nowhere. They crash, and as Hound's brother sinks he uses the holographic ability to hide the few humans who managed to escape. Maintaining the huge illusions for so long drains his energy and sends him into stasis. His spark energy diffuses throughout the whole ocean, and years later it revives Megatron!

177. "Who said flowers had to be beautiful?"

I'm thinking of Sunstreaker. The 'Daffodil of Doom'.

Maybe, since he was arrested, the others would have undergone reformatting so they could still merge. That wouldn't destroy Perceptor's bond to his fellow Gestalt mates, though. He would be so pissed for being pushed aside like that.

And when Perceptor gets pissed, in come the assorted super-powers.

Interesting... You know, R2-D2 kind of reminds me of Roller...

!!! XD Roller is R2-D2's twin! That's why he doesn't talk much and he stays with Optimus all the time - when R2 was sent to another dimension, the twin-bond broke! Poor Roller!

Poor baby needs therapy.

*a-HEM* And just whose fault is this? :D

After every battle they'd hide in their quarters and cry! The Gestalts form giant puppy piles in search of comfort!

Yeah, we wish. But that would be just the most adorable thing EVER.

You know, Sunstreaker is going to kill you for saying he's not beautiful.

*panicking* I didn't say you're not, Sunstreaker! I just said you didn't have to be! So the fact that you are makes you extra-extra-special! I mean, if you renamed Tracks Rosey or something, that wouldn't make him beautiful, would it?? *prays for Sides to distract Sunny so I can escape*

Like telekinesis? Super strength? X-ray vision?

All of the above? Probably whatever crazy angst-associated ability you wanna give him. Perceptor's flexible like that.

... I'm a bad person.

Well, you're not alone in this community, at least.

Sideswipe: *ignores prayer* "Oh, look! Free show!" *sits back with a bowl of energon popcorn*

*cries*

1. The Autobots believe Perceptor is a prisoner of the Decepticons. But he's actually the prisoner of another Autobot and is being kept within the depths of the Ark.
Ooh, this seems like it could be so dark! I love it!

2. When the Ark was being built, a killer stashes the body of his latest victim within it's walls. The body is not found and the walls are sealed up. However, the body wasn't as dead as the murderer thought. The victim, a youngling named Perceptor, laid in stasis for a long time while his repair systems worked on his injuries. When he woke up and found himself trapped within the walls of an unknown ship... well, he panicked. Too scared to leave, Perceptor made the walls his home. He made an exit so he could get Energon, but he doesn't stay outside for long. Teletraan is the only one who knows he's there, the semi-sentient computer basically adopting him and teaching him and helping him hide. Some of the other Autobots think he's a ghost. Some believe he doesn't exist at all. But all have heard him at least once during their time on the Ark.
Have you ever seen the flick "Bad Ronnie"? (I think that's what it's called... myself, I've only seen spoofs...) Sorry, that's what this reminded me of.

13. He sometimes wondered if he had imagined the smile.
This makes me think of Starscream and one of the friendlier Autobots. (Optimus? Bumblebee?)

19. Blaster is Soundwave's little brother. Blaster used to idolize his big brother
This reminds me so much of something, but I have no idea what! Either way, it's an awesome idea.

28. "I loved you."
"... Don't you mean love?"
"No."

I've used almost this exact exchange before. The story it was in was never posted, though, cos I couldn't end it. I keep meaning to recycle it... thanks for reminding me...

32. Red Alert was raised by Ratchet and/or Wheeljack. Perceptor was raised by the Twins.
They meet at school and become friends, but their "parents" disapprove... so they decide to set them up, a la "Parent Trap"! Mwahahaha! If I had time I'd take this, but...

48. Transformers: The Musical.
I did an outline for this one months ago! I keep meaning to draw it (writing it would take too long). All I can remember off the top of my head are the songs "Don't You Want Me Baby?" (sung by Rumble and... I forgot...) and Skywarp singing "You Can Be As Loud As The Hell You Want (When You're Makin' Love)" from "Avenue Q.

74. Tracks and Jazz fight over Blaster.
I like TracksXBlaster better, but Jazz'd probably win. He's much too cunning not to.

102. Before the war, Perceptor was a Companion.
I don't know what you meant by this, but like always, it makes me think of "Doctor Who". Gah...

118. Crossover with Star Wars. A sparkling is found and thinks C3PO is Daddy
And it's Perceptor! Thus why they are so similar in their mannerisms and such!

128. Perceptor is Hot Rod's creator.
Never thought of this, but I love it so much. But how do you explain Hot Rod's rebellious streak?

[identity profile] ksiezniczka11.livejournal.com 2008-08-21 11:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Good choices!
You really think so? I felt weird thinking of Starscream cos he's so overdone... but, hey, it works.

Let me know if you remember what it reminds you of.
Will do... I hate not being able to remember things...

*loves* That would be amazing to see! *is sad you can't adopt*
I might anyway, but it'd be forever and a day before I'd be able to churn anything out. The good thing is the plot is just a little cliche, so... I can play with tropes and such if I do find the time to do so...

This bunny was inspired by Newsies... I can just picture the scientists singing in their labs. And dancing! I hope you draw it!
*thinks* "Perceptor blinded me... with SCIENCE!" Hahaha!

Maybe I will. There's so many characters I can't draw at all. I'm getting semi-alright at the seekers, though.

I prefer Tracks/Blaster too; but you're right about Jazz winning.

Want to bet they didn't tell Blaster about the fight?

He'd find out anyway. According to his new toy bio, he's good friends with Perceptor, whom nothing gets by...

*LOVES*
You can thank my best friend for that one. She figured out that's the reason I liked Threepio so much. (And here I thought the only obvious similarities were Arcee's Leia-buns...)

His other creator? Or maybe Perceptor himself was rebellious at Hot Rod's age.
*Visualises Percy in a leather jacket* Oh, good god...

Sudden thought: I wonder if his other creator was Springer? It certainly would put an interesting spin on the Springer/Arcee/Hot Rod love triangle that's so fun to play with...

*giggles* Is that Wheeljack singing?
If you want it to be. I didn't have anyone in mind; that song's been stuck in my head for like a week though.

And sunglasses!
I wish I had the means to make a little leather jacket and pair of sunglasses for my Perceptor toy now! I will figure out a way... (I REALLY need to get a new hobby...)

*loves* And since Hot Rod was the result of a one night stand when Perceptor was a rebellious teenager, Springer doesn't know that Hot Rod's his kid! He'd be competing with his own child for Arcee's affections and wouldn't know! And maybe Perceptor never told Hot Rod about Springer so they are both in the dark! And Perceptor's watching from the sidelines, laughing!
Oh, that's so deliciously evil of him! This is gonna be another one of those bunnies that I just love! Man...

3. Several Autobots find themselves pregnant. And they have no idea how they got that way since none of them have interfaced in a while. So... spawn of Primus? Unicron? Alien Experiment?

I didn't realise. I must have picked this up because I've got a similar bunny in my next list.
Could be such a thing as a Succubus responsible?
A cybertronian Succubus?



19. Blaster is Soundwave's little brother. Blaster used to idolize his big brother.


Awwww that's sweet.

29. Perceptor is badly injured in an attack, passes out, and wakes up bonded. "I'm not a medic! It was the only thing I could think of to keep your spark from fading!"

Sounds like Bluestreak although would be a lot more interesting if it was a Decepticon.


37. Cliffjumper's habit of calling everyone a traitor? Yeah, it's a glitch.

A-HA! The Truth is out! Now all those who have been nasty to Cliffjumper hang your heads in shame. Go on!


50. "All it takes is a voice that becomes a hundred, then a thousand. Unless it is silenced." ~Newsies.

Someone gets the ability to hear thoughts! (And is NOT Soundwave)

???: Make the voices stop!
Soundwave: Question: What will you pay me in return?


104. Those mechs that are able to get pregnant, suffer monthly pain.

Now that's just cruel.
Perceptor: Help. I am leeking dark energon from my lower orfices.
Ratchet: Percy that's called Menstruation. Has no-one talked about coming of age?

-----

Spike: Someone's injured I just slipped on Energon blood.
Bluestreak: *Hides behind Skyfire*


145. "He is not a pet."

Swoop: But he Kitty. *Cuddles and pets*
*Steeljaw purrs*

125. Perceptor is a werecreature.
And the Decepticons take him prisoner just before his "time of the month."
Con1: Uh, anybody else think it's a bit weird he didn't resist at all this time?
Con2: Eh, he's just now figuring out coming along makes it easier for himself. About time, too.
Perceptor: *secret evil smile*
