1. Cybertron has two politicical parties: the Primes and the Lords. Optimus (of the Prime party) and Megatron (of the Lord party) are running against each other.
2. Quote from The Dilbert Principle by Scott Adams:
“To the engineer, all matter in the universe can be placed into one of two categories: (1) things that need to be fixed, and (2) things that will need to be fixed after you’ve had a few minutes to play with them. Engineers like to solve problems. If there are no problems handily available, they will create their own problems. Normal people don’t understand this concept; they believe that if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. Engineers believe that if it ain’t broke, it doesn’t have enough features yet.
No engineer looks at a television remote control without wondering what it would take to turn it into a stun gun. No engineer can take a shower without wondering if some sort of Teflon coating would make showering unnecessary. To the engineer, the world is a toy box full of sub-optimized and feature-poor toys.”
3. All young sparklings have a default alt-mode which is designed to keep them as safe as possible until their first upgrade. The transformed sparkling has very low mobility, but usually has enough protection to keep him/her safe in threatening situations until an adult can intervene. After shifting the general body structure, the alt-mode’s ‘limbs’ (containing important components of vital systems) and head are withdrawn into a central armored section.
Human: Um, I was just wondering… I thought you guys could only take mechanical alt-modes. What’s up with that little guy who just transformed into a turtle?
4. October’s just begun. Time to start thinking about Halloween plans!
5. Which are the most likely TFs to be secret procrastinators?
6. The Top Ten Greatest Hacks of All Time
7. “You let Wheeljack overhear the story of Dr. Frankenstein?! What on Cybertron made you think that was even remotely a good idea?!?!”
“I was desperate! I had to distract Sideswipe before he found the Darwin Awards website!”
8. Not really a bunny, but a great writing quote (not even about fanfic specifically) that I found on this site. Does this farm’s telepathy ever trickle out to the Internet in general?
“Write all your good ideas as quickly as you can after you get them. Don't worry about getting more; they'll come faster and faster the more you write. Before you know it, you'll be begging people to take them, like a gardener with zucchini.”
Oh, and this amused me also, from a different list of writing tips:
Take a walk - Get out of your writing brain for 10 minutes. Think about bunnies. Breathe.
Oxymoron much?
9. After the war ends, leaders and top officers of both factions are all exiled for war crimes.
10. TFs taking tests.
11. Patience is something you admire in the driver behind you and scorn in the one ahead. -Mac McCleary
12. "Science without religion is lame. Religion without science is blind."
13. "Always use tasteful words. You may have to eat them."
14. "I'm not afraid to fall, it means I've climbed up high, to fall is not to fail, you fail when you don't try."
15. The old datapad hidden in his quarters contains only one small file: a Cybertronian address.
16. “I’ll accept your apology, if you’ll accept my forgiveness.”
17. Starscream/Elita-1
18. One watery morning in the Decepticon base, Soundwave’s cassettes online to find that they are normal-sized, with typical mech/femme style bodies and enlarged versions of their previous alt modes. They are lying on normal-sized berths, in a room they’ve never seen before – and Soundwave is gone.
19. Art. Mermechs!
20. Soundwave made the mistake of letting his cassettes read fantasy literature and books about Earth animals, and is now seriously considering giving in to their demands because of the sheer amount of whining.
A. Ravage, Frenzy, and/or Rumble want wings.
B. Ratbat/Laserbeak/Buzzsaw wants a ground-based form.
C. Laserbeak & Buzzsaw/Frenzy & Rumble want to have totally different forms so other ‘Cons will stop calling them by the wrong names.
D. Frenzy commented in the rec room that it would be hilarious if one or all of them were remade to look like miniature versions of Megatron. Soundwave was barely able to shush him before their mighty leader overheard.
E. Laserbeak and Buzzsaw want to be miniature Seekers.
F. Ratbat wants to be a cat, like Ravage.
G. Ravage wants to be a bat, like Ratbat.
H. Someone wants to be:
1) A griffin.
2) A unicorn.
3) A crocodile.
4) A mermech/merfemme.
5) A dragon.
6) A hobbit.
7) A snake.
8) A liopleurodon.
21. The Dinobots discover the theory that birds are supposedly descended from dinosaurs and come to what they think is a logical conclusion.
22. “You’re kidding. They’re getting bonded?”
“Yep.”
“…Dear Primus, what will the sparklings look like?!”
23. (Inspired by a bunny on dreamer_way’s recent list) Instead of ‘choosing’ one Cybertronian from the entire population, the Matrix latches on to the first one it comes in contact with who would be willing to accept it – being naïve enough to think that he/she could handle the responsibility.
24. A canon femme as Prime.
25. Primus only created the Cybertronians so they could take care of his unwieldy body while he was stuck in sphere form.
A. When he manages to transform back to mech form, he has no need for the Cybertronians and abandons them.
B. The Cybertronians aren’t doing a suitable job, getting caught up in their politics and actually damaging his body as a consequence of their wars. Primus starts to think it would be easier to destroy them all and start over.
26. Primus is temporarily unable to care for his children. His brother Unicron agrees to ‘babysit’ until Primus can take custody of them again. Most of the children, understandably, are very wary of their new ‘babysitter’.
27. Some of the Cybertronians were originally Unicron’s creations. The prosperity of the Primus-created bots lured most of Unicronians to Cybertron, where they mixed with their cousins and, though inter-bonding, the two races became integrated. Bitterly disappointed that his own creations abandoned him, Unicron decided that if he wanted to retain his own people, he would have to risk sending the few Unicronians who had stayed with him to destroy the mixed race.
28. Looking out at the ocean floor, a Decepticon sees a strange, dim light that pulses in time with his spark-beat.
29. The Cybertronians’ stay on Earth is rapidly recalibrating the systems which maintain their internal components. These systems quickly adjust to Earth’s atmosphere, and slowly become dependent on certain gases. Although taking in and converting these gases to perform certain functions reduces the amount of energon each mech requires, sooner or later they’ll all be so dependent on ‘breathing’ that they won’t be able to leave.
30. A human forgets his/her cell phone (set on vibrate) inside of a Transformer.
31. That Telephone game where a bunch of people pass along a message and it gets completely distorted.
32. Perceptor’s long words + a Dinobot’s simple grammar = a sparkling who speaks normally.
33. The TFs find out about SuzyWong’s (amazing!) TF plushies.
34. Home Alone, Transformers-style.

They somehow got transported to an alternate universe! Or... or someone changed the past and somehow they are the only ones who remember!

If he already acts that way toward his fellow Dinobots (once in a while, at least), then it'd only be an extension of that to look after a new group. And it'd be an interesting way for Prime to test Grimlock's leadership skills.

I think she accepts payments, so you could pay a little at a time. You need Paypal though. I'd get one but... cats. They like to sharpen their claws on everything except the scratching post.
Who would buy whom, do you think?
Well, Jazz would buy Prowl, Sunstreaker would buy himself, Inferno would buy Red Alert but would hide it because Red Alert thinks it's some kind of Voodoo doll, Blaster would buy Soundwave but would hide it because Rewind and Eject think Soundwave's a bad influence and would take it away, Optimus would buy Megatron and himself and act out battles, Perceptor would buy Brawn so he can actually hold a civil (if one-sided) conversation with his friend, Hound would buy Mirage but would keep losing it making him wonder if the doll can turn invisible, Ratchet would get the Twins so he can have something to kill when he's angry, Skyfire would get Starscream and would treat it as if it were real leading everyone to believe he's gone insane, Red Alert would get one of a mech none of the Ark bots know leading everyone to attempt to snoop through his background files, Springer would buy Perceptor and would spend days staring at it pretending to listen to a scientific lecture (which he can, secretly, understand perfectly)...
And I got a little carried away there, didn't I? Oops. Moving on.

Date: 2008-10-04 08:57 am (UTC)I actually imagine that if sparklings have an altmode, it's a small ground vehicle, like a go-cart in the basic shape of the vehicle type they will eventually become (like I imagine Orion Pax has always been some sort of truck - he was a small truck as a sparkling, he was a medium truck as a young mech, he became a large truck as Optimus Prime).
But you have a point, they'd be small, slow, but armoured, and I can't help but get the image of a sparkling being a turtle-like cart, like a motorised version of one of those plastic kiddy carts that look like some cartoony animal.
15. The old datapad hidden in his quarters contains only one small file: a Cybertronian address.
My imagination suddenly comes up with an idea where it's Optimus who owns the notepad and the address has something to do with him and Magnus. The idea in my head is that at some point Magnus disappeared, and the address is... something like the last place they ever got to be together? Or maybe Magnus got injured and is stuck in longterm stasis and the address is where he's located.
18. One watery morning in the Decepticon base, Soundwave’s cassettes online to find that they are normal-sized, with typical mech/femme style bodies and enlarged versions of their previous alt modes. They are lying on normal-sized berths, in a room they’ve never seen before – and Soundwave is gone.
I connected this to the plotbunny about Soundwave converting lovers into his Cassettes, and what if they all wake up in their original forms - like Ratbat is back to being the mech he used to be as a senator, and the others are all sorts of things (like I imagine both Laserbeak and Buzzsaw were flyers, maybe even Seekers).
And then they wake up, having got used to being Soundwave's Cassettes, and Soundwave is missing.
22. “You’re kidding. They’re getting bonded?”
“Yep.”
“…Dear Primus, what will the sparklings look like?!”
An Insecticon and a Terrorcon.
24. A canon femme as Prime.
Instead of choosing Optronix as Prime, the Matrix chooses Elita One.

Date: 2008-10-04 08:57 am (UTC)Interesting point, and the way my Primus muse's story goes, the Autobots become that again, taking up a long term project to repair all the damage and start maintaining Cybertron properly again.
Of course, the initial objective of doing so is so the planet can transform because it's easier for Primus to move himself in robot form to a star system where he's got regular sunlight to generate energon from, but that is only the start of the repair process and even after moving Cybertron, there's still lots that needs to be fixed up.
26. Primus is temporarily unable to care for his children. His brother Unicron agrees to ‘babysit’ until Primus can take custody of them again. Most of the children, understandably, are very wary of their new ‘babysitter’.
Aww, I like that! I am not totally hyped on the whole Ultimate Good/Ultimate Evil polarisation and would love to see more fic where they aren't absolute enemies.

The prosperity of the Primus-created bots lured most of Unicronians to Cybertron, where they mixed with their cousins and, though inter-bonding, the two races became integrated. Bitterly disappointed that his own creations abandoned him, Unicron decided that if he wanted to retain his own people, he would have to risk sending the few Unicronians who had stayed with him to destroy the mixed race.
Somehow, the situation eventually resolves with some of the mixed race moving home to Unicron and the two planet-formers end up sharing their combined children.

True, which would make an interesting story - someone gets the datapad and it's basically a race to get to where Magnus is kept.
Well, they'd be happy to be back to normal, right? Or not? Either way, it'd be hard to adjust to not having that 'Big Brother is watching you' feeling...
I think it depends on how used to it they have become and how deep their attachments to Soundwave are. Actually, the best concept would be if there's a range of reactions to the situation. Maybe Ratbat is pleased to be back to his original self, the twins are only so-so about it (the IDW history of them being industrial equipment strikes me that there wouldn't be a lot of size change to them if they returned to that), and for some reason I see Ravage as the one who has the deepest attachment to Soundwave, so Ratbat might not care to return to being a tape, the twins might be ammenable, while Ravage is practically desperate to find out what's happened to Sound and get everything back to normal.
That was exactly what I was thinking of with this bunny. ^.^

Turtle and armadillo altmodes! So cute!
Armadillos! I didn't think of armadillos! *loves* Or maybe hedgehogs/porcupines!!
I just got the image of Prowl and Starscream getting drunk and laughing their afts off with each other on some out-of-the-way asteroid while listening to Prime and Megatron arguing with each other.
*LOVES THE IMAGE* *WANTS TO SEE, SLAGGIT*
If you wanted real results, you should have gone to a real scientist – like me. *preens*
Isn't preening that thing birds do to groom their feathers? Quite the appropriate verb use there.
Blackarachnia: You… you’re a scientist? You’d help me!?
Poor Blackarachnia must be really desperate by now. And where will she turn if when this goes wrong too?
I’ve always been partial to the idea of Ravage as a female, so I wonder what she’d look like as a femme?
This would be very if 1) she was slagging gorgeous, and 2) everyone had always assumed when she was in cassette-form that she was male.
Frenzy and Rumble would probably have the easiest time of it, since it’s just a bigger version for them.
Although if those were their mech forms, what would their alt-modes be? I actually forgot about that when I was writing the bunny.
… for some reason, he image of the Dinobots hugging the seekers and proclaiming loudly that they’re their ‘babies’ is playing through my head with this one.
*LOVES**LOVES**LOVES**LOVES**LOVES**LOVES**LOVES*
Dinobots: <3<3<3 ^.^ <3<3<3
Seekers: *>.<* *>:(* *o_O*
But then I thought: Well, what if they mean the sparklings are going to be downright gorgeous? And then, to make it even more interesting, my mind supplied me with a threesome! The three vainest mechs around: Sunstreaker, Tracks, and Starscream.
Ooohhh... So they create the ultimate Cybertronian sex-god? (Or sex-goddess?)
My muse which says the Cybertronians are either a) fleas or b) some sort of mutualism symbiotic bug on Primus is very much in favor of this bunny.
Like those birds that pick meat out of crocodiles' teeth? Or the fish that clean bigger fish by latching on and vacuuming?
This reminds me of Moses and the flood. Kill everyone and everything on Cybertron except for a small few, and then have them repopulate the planet by themselves.
Maybe that's what the energon shortage was supposed to do!
I remember reading one fic in which Sam left his in Optimus, but I can’t remember what it was called or where I found it at.
Poor Optimus! Why is it always him that this happens to? Sam & Mikaela ride to school in Bumblebee every day, but the one time they hitch a quick ride with Optimus...
And I can see this happening with a bit of gossip. It passes through everyone in the ark, and finally ends up with the Decepticons as something completely different.
The cracky potential for this astounds me. *loves*
Omgomgomg, are they for sale!?!?!? *has convulsions of want* *checks prices* … oh. Curse my cheap ways. D:

*LOVES THIS IDEA* *WANTS TO SEE* In one of my fics, Wheeljack claimed that he has a horrible singing voice. I wonder if this was passed down to the Dinos...
Or. "You Prime fundamentally incorrect."
?: "Great. Now it's twice as hard to understand."
XD Poor Perceptor and _(insert Dinobot(s)-of-choice here)_. Their sparkling will have some troubles growing up, I think.
But at least it's almost guaranteed to be adorable. When it keeps its mouth shut, everyone will love it and cuddle it and spoil it.

*sigh* The problem is that whichever character the bunny affects is going to hate every minute of it.

The faces on the Autobots would be priceless if one of the Dinobots could sing.
Their sparkling will have some troubles growing up, I think.
I just hope it doesn't inherit Perceptor's trouble magnet.

Engineers like to solve problems. If there are no problems handily available, they will create their own problems. Normal people don’t understand this concept; they believe that if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. Engineers believe that if it ain’t broke, it doesn’t have enough features yet.
No engineer looks at a television remote control without wondering what it would take to turn it into a stun gun. No engineer can take a shower without wondering if some sort of Teflon coating would make showering unnecessary. To the engineer, the world is a toy box full of sub-optimized and feature-poor toys.”
*laughs* Lol I'm an (electrical) engineering student and that one's just spot on. ...which probably explains why I have pieces of a PS2 littered around my room amoung other things. Damn who stole my toolkit!
Though this comment does remind me of one of those Wheeljack meets the mythbusters ficbits I've seen....those are priceless.
12. "Science without religion is lame. Religion without science is blind."
As a religious person myself I can understand this. That and I wonder just what Perceptor and Wheeljack get up to when relgion and science...well for lack of a better word mixes.

I'm religious as well, which is what made me stop and think about this quote when I read it. My train of thought was something like: God created humans, and humans devised science to explain their relationship with God's creation and religion to explain their relationship with God. It doesn't make sense that the two ideas would always be in conflict.

*is also curious* It seems like Sunstorm gets brought in whenever something like that happens.

No it doesn't I mean if you look through history a lot of famous scientists were religious...never stopped them getting on with their work. I like the way you've put this too. It makes a lot of sense.

Hmm that he does...though I'm more curious as to what they do when he's NOT there. Besides the likeyhood is he's not the only religious nutcase out there.
