Let's see if this batch is more rabid than my last one.
1. Transformers don't wear paint. If they did, you wouldn't see them turn gray when they died. They only use the term since it was the first word they came across to describe the colorful outer layer of machines.
2. Wheeljack learns that there were some actually very small dinosaurs. He then convinces Ratchet to undertake another project. Introducing the mini-Dinobots. Frustration abounds, and they're nicknamed The Anklebiters.
3. Following a similar line of thought.
Wheeljack: "Prime, I uh... I..." *wrings hands* "IaccidentallyshranktheDinobots."
4. The Insecticons discover Crane Flies. There are Decepticons that are cranes.
5. Hook learns about a certain, notorious, fictional pirate captain. (From Peter Pan, in case my thoughts aren't clear enough.)
6. The Coneheads learn about the movie Coneheads.
7. Coyote the Trickster is curious about these new shape-shifting beings from the stars, so he takes the form of a transformer to get closer and satisfy his curiosity. After he introduces himselfsans trickster title to the Autobots and has interacted with them for a while he learns of Sideswipe's self-proclaimed title of Prankster(trickster) King.
This will not do.
Coyote: "A word, if you please."
Sideswipe: "Yeah?"
Coyote: *slings an arm around Sides' shoulders*" What's this I hear about you as the Prank King?"
S: "Hey. I haven't done anything to yah, so don't go blaming me for something I didn't do."
C: *waves hand* "That's not the issue, that's not the issue." *dark look* "My problem is your claiming a title that doesn't belong to you."
8. There is an island in the Kermadec's called Raoul. Does that make him a human avatar of the island? Is he from the island? Or does he own it?
9. [07Movie] The destruction of the allspark released broken spark creating energies that triggered changes in every living thing for miles. Some organic life slowly but surely were turning into something akin to cybertronian life. Others died gruesome deaths. But as it was, those that survived, their lives were fragile, their alt-modes painfully simple, and every single one needed a cybertronian-born to support them.
Yet not all mechs had the physical disposition do so, and many of those that did, found themselves supporting a good half-dozen each because there were too many of these new cybertronians and too few available to support them all to worry about lessening the load. Soon a new name was used to describe these strange new non-cybertronians. Introducing, movieverse cassettes.
(evolved from a bunny before I could write it down that had it impossible for humans be turned into full-sized mechs or even minibots, and that they can only become cassettes. Mostly from trying to make my brain break less while contemplating all the human-turned-cybertronian fics out there.)

Date: 2008-10-02 03:35 pm (UTC)There's one fic writer I know of who posits that Cybertronian bodies have several different colonies of nanites that do various functions - one of which is the colour nanites that make up a mech's "paint".

Poor Wheeljack! Poor Dinobots! *thinks* They can hang out with Omega Supreme, who I hear Perceptor accidentally shrunk. Last I knew, he was hiding behind Optimus' foot.
4. The Insecticons discover Crane Flies. There are Decepticons that are cranes.
Are they going to try to do a little reformatting?
Scrapper: *confused* "Why are you hiding under my berth?"
Hook: *scared* "I don't want to be a bug!"
Scrapper: *even more confused* *is beginning to think Hook just snapped*
5. Hook learns about a certain, notorious, fictional pirate captain. (From Peter Pan, in case my thoughts aren't clear enough.)
He will either be amused, embarrassed, angry, or he won't care. Depends on what mood he's in when he finds the book.
Coyote: "A word, if you please."
Sideswipe: "Yeah?"
Coyote: *slings an arm around Sides' shoulders*" What's this I hear about you as the Prank King?"
S: "Hey. I haven't done anything to yah, so don't go blaming me for something I didn't do."
C: *waves hand* "That's not the issue, that's not the issue." *dark look* "My problem is your claiming a title that doesn't belong to you."
Sideswipe will then challenge him to a prank contest to prove that the title does indeed belong to him. Poor thing doesn't know what he just got himself into. *laughs at Sideswipe*

*LOVES* Poor Blaster, when he shows up! He's going to be so overcrowded! And I wonder how some of them convinced Soundwave, a Decepticon, to support them.

Date: 2008-10-03 10:37 pm (UTC)Interesting idea! Any thoughts as to why Megatron (and probably some other mostly-metal-colored mechs whose names I can't remember right now) doesn't seem to have much 'paint'?
3. Following a similar line of thought.
Wheeljack: "Prime, I uh... I..." *wrings hands* "IaccidentallyshranktheDinobots."
Prime: Really?
Wheeljack: *cringe*
Prime: That's GREAT! *grins behind his mask* Grapple and Hoist were just complaining to me yesterday about all the structural damage they've been causing in the Ark lately. Problem solved! *is pleased*
Prowl: *butts in* But their efforts are a key part of numerous default strategies!
Prime: Ah, well... *ponders* Wheeljack, any thoughts?
Wheeljack: *dubiously* Well, I suppose at their current size I might be able to whomp up some miniature engines and thrusters to give them all flight capabilities...
Prime: *waves hand* Make it so!
5. Hook learns about a certain, notorious, fictional pirate captain.
*LOVES* Tick, tock, tick, tock, tick, tock, goes the clock, in the croc. I can see him developing a few phobias after he reads (or falls into?) Peter Pan.
8. There is an island in the Kermadec's called Raoul. Does that make him a human avatar of the island? Is he from the island? Or does he own it?
Interesting... This bunny might be able to squirm into the basket with a previous Raoul/Astoria bunny. Raoul might inherit the island and suddenly be in the same social circles as Astoria.
On another, unrelated note: there's also a major character from Phantom of the Opera who is named Raoul.
