Ultra Magnus, drone of Primus. He probably has a good reason.
But what reason? :P Did Optimus become all tyrannical and evil and such after the war? Did he majorly screw up? Did Primus get angry at him for having such a gas-guzzling alt. mode?
Would they even have auras or would their auras work differently? I personally imagine their electromagnetic fields are their auras.
I was thinking like Spark auras - energy emitted by their sparks that shows up around them like a silhouette. For that matter, what about different-colored Sparks? They can't ALL be sparkly gold things.
Actually, I totally agree with that - all ways are valid (up to and including tasteful sticky), it's just a matter of preference and social mores.
This was inspired by some fanon article (can't remember which one or where I found it) that discussed all the different theories about interfacing, and thought, why not have them all? It's like having ninja pirates who like chocolate vanilla swirl and have attack dogs and spy cats. Yeah.
They serve specialty energon, oil confectionary (and anything else you can think that a robotic race might eat - I'm personally very influenced by i_stalk_piccolo's writing when it comes to Cybertronian foods).
I believe a fanfic by Cyndi on ff.net mentioned having rust sticks and wax/oil truffles, so I was wondering, what other kinds of food could they have? What does energon taste like, and can there be different flavors?
Soundwave, of course. He tamed severeal unwilling Cassettes into loyal minions.
Soundwave: "Rumble: sit." Rumble: *sits* Frenzy: *snicker* Good boy.
Actually, from what I've seen through fandom about the senate, Cybertron seems more like the Roman Empire after the Ceasars were established.
I....had not known that. I was going off the wikipedia article, which mentioned how Prime was a religious leader, and the ultimate authority. Mayhap the latter part is because of the wartime policy...
He thinks pulling pranks is too undignified.
Maybe Hound asks him to help out in the prank war? Even dignified mechs like to see other mechs fall on their afts sometime - and it would be so unexpected.
On the other hand, he has a kink for interfacing in public, without anyone besides Hound knowing what is happening.
For once, Hound might be the embarrassed one XD
*Gives her Magnus muse a sidelong glance.*
Hmmm?
For some reason this made me think of Starscream and Skyfire, when they first get into a relationship.
So they were reincarnated? Or maybe they met a long time ago as sparklings and just found each other again! :D
Megatron, with originally honourable intentions.
And then he turns into the evil warlord we all know and love/hate. Or, maybe he's just acting the part, and he's just trying to goad Optimus into continuing the fight.
Optimus Prime. He has to put on a brave, cheerful attitude in front of his troops, but does not always feel it in his spark. It helps that he has the mouth guard to hide most of his face.
I always thought being the leader of the underdog force must be a hard job. Optimus has to keep morale up by pretending to be the perfect, unruffled leader.
