Ok but Ulta Magnus saying to Sentinel that he isn't program to be a hero in aus where he is swap with Optimus is ten times sadder when you think about it meta wise considering most versions of Sentinel are evil or corrupt.

Like it doesn't matter what continuity it is Optimus in the end with always be the one to rise up to a hero or is already one while Sentinel will be the one that will always fall from grace whether it him dying or turning into a antagonist.

Double swap au

Just some random thoughts I've had about this au

Bulkhead won't fight Goldbug

Goldbug will stare at Shockwave for long periods of time and not say anything to him and then walk off Shockwave finds this behavior strange but never comments on it, however he's glad that Bumblebee is living up to potential he saw in him

Wasp apologizes every time he fights Goldbug

Megatron enjoys listening to Optronix talk about his time in the autobot academy mostly for information but also because he finds the dynamic if Optimus, Elita and Sentinel and the way it changed interesting

Elita and Prowl go bird watching

Wasp loves finding bugs and learning about them from Prowl and Sari

Makes sense Goldbug won't fight Bulky!

Hmm interesting on Goldie staring Shockers down, there's .•°~emotions~°•. there

Okay I'm imagining Wasp consistently dodging Goldbug's punches while trying to apologize

OOO ON OPTRONIX BEING FULLY WILLING TO SHARE ALL HIS PREV INFO ON THE AUTOBOTS TO MEGATRON. Like, dude was a history nerd and part of Magnus's chosen trio of primes of sort. He knows shit. And Megatron naturally finds it all fascinating, especially in regards to future fights with Elita Prime who has proven a tougher autobot than first anticipated to be

Prowl would absolutely bring Elita bird watching yes yes

Aww on Wasp having a thing for entomology

@jillz-precious-tearz I wanted to show you this first but also wanted feedback from others and I'm about to sleep so... who wants some Sari and Raf role swap!?

They are both in the same universe and share the same quirks as their original selves, but their origins are quite different.

In short under the cut!

Sari is the biological child of professor Sumdac and his "deceased wife". She grew up as any "normal" child. Still, because of Sari's extravagant and cheerful personality, it was hard for people to understand her without Sari bursting a ton of emotions in one sentence, and she prefers to spend time with people that like the things she likes... so it was pretty hard to keep her friendships stable.

Raf was a protoform that landed in the forest of España, so he was found by a family that was camping close to the place he crashed. After the pod was touched by Msr. Esquivel, a little baby (Raf) was found inside and was adopted after that weird night. Raf grew up with a semi-normal life being home-school after a little incident that happened in kindergarten. As the youngest, he looks for some attention from all the members of his family (including older brothers and sisters).

When they both found out about the Bots they quickly clashed because of their very different personality, but with time, they warm up and become good science buddies (and maybe more later)

Also. they are both teenagers (14-16) because I won't deal with all spark key accident...

AU looks for Rey and Ben

Commentary under the cut

I initially conceived of this as being solely about the hairstyles, but then I couldn’t just make them wear one outfit because different outfits go with different looks, so it increasingly became a very high effort video game character customizer. It’s just too much fun to play dress-up, and what better time to indulge my love of space fashion than with a custom template of my favs!!

I actually do have a longtime dream of making a paper doll set because I love outfits, I love canonverse AUs, and the lack of significant variety in their looks throughout the sequel trilogy has obviously driven me to madness, but. drawing clothing on entire head-to-toe figures is a whole thing. These busts alone took so much time I don’t know if I’d ever finish something more extensive.

Miscellaneous notes and thought processes from staring at this for way too long:

Short-haired Rey/long-haired Ben 4ever

Rey wearing green and Ben wearing blue is my ideal configuration so it’s what I will always default to. They are simply the correct colors, sorry I DO make the rules

Of course this whole thing came about mostly because I wanted to give Ben a Leia hairstyle. OF COURSE. And the outfit is stolen from Bail—I previously made a photomanip of this but didn’t quite complete it (yet?? ehh. why bother at this point). Funnily enough in that manip I had turned Bail’s grey ROTS cloak blue for Ben, and then in the Obi-Wan show they did that same color swap and gave Bail an actual blue cloak. Curse my gift of prophecy

I played with giving Rey Ben’s exact same scar—which also looks rad—but because I overthink everything it seemed more fitting to make it a mirror image instead. Dyad things

The EU did already have a guy with Jason Todd hair, but setting that aside I’m still pretty attached to Kylo Red Hood parallels. And a while ago as I was thinking about the white streak again I realized it would make sense to extend it from where his scar is, symbolic of how death and resurrection would be experiences that stemmed from that initial injury. I’m not a huge fan of his scar being completely healed in canon because I’d rather things have permanent reminders instead of erasing them (which is generally a whole problem with TROS!!!), so I like the idea that it would change rather than disappear. Anyway the cost of resurrection is: looking extra cool 😔

Sci-fi women with shaved heads are very special to me, but specifically in the history of Star Wars I have a deep fondness for Natalie Portman’s buzz cut during the ROTS press. She looked so good, RIP bald Padme

Rey’s black cowl is modeled on Kylo’s TFA cowl, but I also imagined it as the good boy sweater. Either way, she’s wearing his clothes

I know Ben in the standard white shirt is pretty boring, but I needed a low collar to showcase his hair (ostensibly the point of this entire exercise!) and I liked pairing a white outfit for him with a black outfit for Rey, because reversals are the best part of their whole deal. Also: casual space Gandalf the White. Also also: I think I just ended up making him the transformed Beast from Beauty and the Beast. APPROPRIATE. It was kind of tough for me to settle on a look to go with the long hair because it was the Ben hairstyle that I thought worked best with every outfit.

Rey’s green wrap/robe is the most improvised clothing here, just aiming for something nice and green without getting overly fancy. I sort of vaguely pulled from the Chandrilan formalwear we saw on Andor, but I mean, the kimono wrap is a pretty standard Star Wars wardrobe staple regardless. The white mock neck undershirt is definitely inspired by Mon. So you can maybe say she’s dressed in Chandrilan clothes because it’s Ben’s homeworld, and he helped her with the braid because yes I subscribe to Ben hair braiding fanons, I’m so sorry, I’m in too deep!!!!!!!

Puffy jacket! Even more colorful!! To be honest I have throw pillows with these colors and I love them, but I was also thinking to give Ben a yellow accent as a nod to Rey’s lightsaber color. This is where it gets to a point that I could spend days switching out color combos, a dangerous game

This was way more time-consuming than I expected it to be, but that seems to be true of all art projects for me as I get older. Now I gotta try to sustain some productivity and move on to the next one of my billion WIPs. Being obsessed with a dead ship and character for which there is vanishingly little hope of ever getting new canon material is so much work

Transformers Animated Swap au.

(Be warned any ficlets of this au is written in no particular order and some things may be subject to change as I progress with this au)

Along Came a Spider

The Space bridge repair crew have been on Earth long enough for the seasons to have changed. According to Sari the humans have this tradition called Halloween that seemingly lasts the whole month of October but is really just the last day of the month, only artist celebrate the whole month with a practice known as Inktober. Which is why Bulkhead, Wasp, Sari and Elita-1 were at a pumpkin patch picking out which pumpkin they would like to crave. Well, only Sari, Wasp and Bulkhead were choosing pumpkins, Elita was staring at the faint fake spider hanging above the entrance of the pumpkin patch.

Memories of that awful day were threatening to resurface after years of trying her damnist to forget them. Elita may have been on the fast track to becoming a member of the Elite Guard at one point in her life but after Archa 7 Elita tried to forget about that and and pretend that she was always a maintenance bot. If she knew Earth had spiders she would have reconsidered staying on Earth for a long as they have and went full force with repairing their ship but now it was too late for that.

Elita shuttered at the fake spider and returned with the rest of the group. Soon after Bulkhead accidentally destroying the pumpkin that Wasp and Sari picked out and Wasp playfully making fun of Bulkhead for it. Bulkhead's expression sored a little bit but soon brightened back up. From what Elita understood Wasp and Bulkhead were apart of the same platoon back when they were in Autobot boot camp, that Wasp wasn't the nicest of bots back then and that something happened that, from what she could infer from Bulkhead and Wasp's arguments was Wasp's fault, that Bulkhead and his best friend from boot camp wer sperated to never see each other again. It painfully reminded her of the friendship she once had with Optimus and Sentinel before Archa 7, but thankfully their time on Earth and with Sari's interference the two have begun the slow process of actually becoming friends.

When they got back to base the trio immediately started to think of what they should dress up as.

"Oh, Wasp, you should dress up as a fuzzy little bumblebee, since you know you're like a, well wasp, and bumblebees are like wasps but cuter and still pack a sting!"said Sari full of energy.

Bulkhead's face dropped and turned into one of somber while Wasp's flashed with anger for a moment.

"No," said Wasp bluntly and a little too quickly.

"Yeah Bumblebee did have quite the sting," whispered Bulkhead in a quite tone that no one else in the room heard.

Sari's smile faded upon seeing Wasp and Bulkhead's reactions.

"Or maybe you could go as a vampire?" asked Sari nervously.

"Of crouse I would," said Wasp whose expression immediately softened up.

After a few more hours and the team accidentally discovering Elita had a fear of spiders when Sari decided to prank her with a toy spider, Wasp, Sari and Bulkhead were all ready to go. Bulkhead had somehow found a sheet big enough to fit his whole body to complete his ghost costume and falling through with his promise Wasp was dressed as a vampire. Sari had said that her costume was a surprise so she didn't tell them what she was going as until she arrived fully dressed. Elita was definitely surprised when Sari showed up dressed up as her. A cardboard box was wrapped around her little buddy drawn and coloured to look like Elita's body and she was even wearing a blonde wig in a ponytail to emulate Elita's head.

After her failure on Archa 7 to save her best friend, someone she would dare to call her brother, Elita didn't think that anyone would be looking up to her, unless they were shorter than her which was true for Sari, but here Sari was dressed up as her to go trick or treating with the two youngest members of their team. Elita had said that she was flattered but she wasn't going with them.

.

.

.

It had only taken a few hours for everything to go to scrap. Elita was listening into Wasp and Bulkhead's conversation via their com links when she heard that Wasp had spotted something that resembled a giant spider. Upon hearing that Elita had immediately let her easdropping known and left for their current location.

Elita and Optimus were defending themselves from the giant organic spiders that were surrounding them from all sides. They had no other choice but to blow up the energon that was stored in the Decepticon warship. While escaping the explosion the worst happened. Optimus' grapple missed it's mark, which until then was something that had never happened, and the young autobot fell to his death. If it wasn't the explosion that killed him the spiders definitely did. Primus did Elita hope the explosion is what offlined her old friend and he wasn't eaten by the spiders.

.

.

.

Suddenly a giant spider dropped down in between Wasp and Bulkhead. Bulkhead was frozen in shock while Wasp immediately activated his stingers and took aim at the giant spider. Shocking everyone there even more than they already were the giant spider transformered into a 'bot. It transformered.

The first thing they noticed about the mech in front of them was that he had two long spider legs that shot up attached to his back and the back half of a spider attached to his waist. The mech was painted black and purple with gold highlights with some dark blue thrown in. The next thing they noticed was that he had four eyes, each glowing in a menacing red. The final thing the trio noticed was the Decepticon logo on his neck armor, the logo itself looked beaten up and had scratch marks all around like if the 'con had tried to remove it.

The 'con moved fast and in a blink of an optic was right in front of Wasp.

"Now hold still so my friend could actually see you this time!"yelled Wasp, calling Bulkhead had a bitter taste in his intake after everything he had did to him.

The 'con looked a Wasp lowering himself to the minibot's eye level. Wasp was taken aback by this, not just the fact the menacing 'con was now making eye contact with him but the look in the 'con's optics. Wasp didn't know how to describe it, the 'con somehow looked tired, angry, calm and sad at the same time.

"I'm not here for you two I'm here for something else, something that, probably wouldn't give me fully my old life back but something close, and an escape," said the 'con, even though he sounded calm on the surface but he underneath the calmness he sounded tired.

"I'm not sure we have what in the Pit you're talking about but we have nothing that could help you and if we did we won't help a 'con like you," spat Wasp taking aim at the larger bot in front of him.

The 'con laughed at the smaller bot's comment before turning his body to look at Sari. That was when it hit them he was after the key.

"You're not taking my friend's key!"yelled Bulkhead as he turned servo into a wrecking ball and started to go into place to swing it.

Before either of them could make a move the 'con had sturked them both with some kind of vemon that knocked them out.

"I wasn't asking," said the 'con coldly.

The 'con turned to the little girl and tried to give her a reassuring smile, which failed miserably seeing as that he had just knocked out two of her friends and he had razor sharp teeth.

"Don't worry they're not dead just unconscious," said the 'con as Sari tried to use her key to wake them up, "also my vemon is organic and the key of yours doesn't work on organics".

Sari looked up at the 'con that was towering her with fear in her eyes.

"What do you want?" Sari asked with wide eyes.

"I think I said that already, I'm looking for something to give me an escape and my old life back," said the 'con, "and I think that key of yours would be helpful in that".

Sari was unsure of what to think the 'con seemed genuinely upset about something and angry lashing out at anyone and anything. But, then again he had hurt her friends but they did went to attack him first.

The 'con dropped down on one knee to be closer to Sari's height. He tried to give her a soft soft smile before beginning to speak once more.

"The others back on the warship called me The Black Spider, I had a different designation a long time ago but now that's in the past," said Black Spider sounding genuinely sad while telling Sari he used to have a different name in the past.

Black Spider suddenly got up and went to grab Sari's but before he could Elita had arrived and tackled him to the ground. The two begun to fight with Black Spider pinning Elita to the side of the building.

"Look, Elita, I just want that key to try something," said Black Spider through gritted teeth.

Elita looked surprised for a moment before regaining her composure.

"How do you know my name?" Elita asked the larger 'bot.

"Everycon knows the name of the 'bot who supposedly defeated and offlined Megatron," said Black Spider but for a moment he also seemed surprised to be asked that.

Black Spider picked Elita up and threw her before making a break towards Sari. Black Spider used his webbing to tie Sari up before using it make to escape.

"Sorry, change of plans," said Black Spider to the frightened child.

Sari struggled against the 'con before Elita using Wasp's stings managed to hit Black Spider sending both of them crashing on the top of a building. Upon getting up Black Spider gently put Sari down onto the ground before using his webs to tie her to a wall. As soon as Elita landed the two immediately began to fight each other.

"I know all of your moves, Elita, pure textbook Autobot Academy," said Black Spider as he dodged all of Elita's attacks.

"Do I know you?" Elita asked genuinely confused on how he knew all her moves.

"I don't forget things as easily as you forget your friends!" Black Spider spat with venom in his voice, "but you did manage to remember Sentinel!".

Elita's energon ran cold as she finally recognized her combatten.

"Optimus?" Elita hesitatedly asked.

"Oh now you remember me, not that I blame you I look every different nowadays," said Black Spider sounding rather sad whilst confirming his identity to be that of Elita's long thought dead friend.

Elita took a step back her head was figuratively spinning because of this knew information. Elita looked saddened at the Decepticon symbol on his neck armor.

"I see you've joined the Decepticons," said Elita sadden to see her former friend join the Decepticons.

"Not like I had a choice in the matter!" Black Spider yelled dangerously close to breaking down while falling to his knees.

Elita approached her former friend and placed her hands on his shoulders in other to comfort him. Elita took note of how he flinched when she placed her hands on his shoulders. She will hurt whoever made him so afraid.

"Then tell me, old friend what happened?" Elita asked with genuine care and sadness in her voice.

Black Spider embraced into Elita's touch. Elita could tell that Black Spider was severely touch starved. Elita was definitely going to hurt someone. When Black Spider remained silent Elita asked again.

"Who did this to you?"

"That son of a glitch Decepticon scientist, Shockwave, he did this to me!" Black Spider yelled.

Black Spider wrapped both of his arms around Elita's stomach area and pulled her into a tight hug. This was a genuinely distressing for Sari to watch. She wondered what kind of horrors took place during the war that the others didn't tell her.

"After I fell, I tried my best to fend off the spiders but eventually a good number of them bit me sinking their venom into my body, I should have died, but instead I went into a sort of stasis lock mode, and when I awoke I was in a laboratory strapped to a medical breth with a purple warframe with one optic and clawed servos

"I immediately recognized that he was a victim of the empurata procedure, which has been banned by the high council after the war had ended so I knew that he was an old 'bot that likely has been around since before the war, I later learnt that his name was Shockwave, I slipped in and out of conscience for the next few solar cycles and each time I woke up I was different, he turned me into some techno-organic freak!

"After being fully situated with my 'new and improved', as he called it, body they branded me with the decepticon logo and forced me to be one of them, I didn't want to but I had no choice because even if I somehow escaped I would never be expected back into Autobot society as part organic, you know how much the others hate anything organic," Black Spider explained sounding like he was going to snap any moment.

Black Spider's story was a truly upsetting one to hear. Sari was shock to find out that most Cybertronians hate organics but was thankful that she meant the ones that did like them. Sari felt truly bad for Black Spider and wished she could help him, maybe she'll let him try use the key on himself to see if it could restore his original body or at least fix his broken mind, even then Sari knew you can't just magic away trauma.

"Nonsense you were practically Ultra Magnus' sparkling even before we joined Autobot Academy together," said Elita whilst giving her broken friend a hug.

"No, he would be the first to say that they need to lock me up and experiment on me," said Black Spider looking up at Elita from where he was kneeling.

Elita looked away from her old friend, she didn't know Ultra Magnus how he would take something like this or respond to it.

"Look, Optimus-".

"It's Black Spider now,".

"Black Spider, there's always a place for you in team E-1, I'm sure the others wouldn't mind, I'm sure they'll give you a nice warm welcome, maybe not Wasp but I'm sure with some encouragement from the others he'll come around," said Elita to the kneeling mech and saying the last bit with Wasp with slight humor.

Black Spider looked up at Elita before beginning to raise.

"Maybe one day I'll take you up on that offer, but for now I'll like to figure things out on my own," replied Black Spider.

Soon after getting up and unbinding Sari from the wall he left. Elita looked guilt ridden, angry and sad, mostly sad though. Sari felt like Elita wouldn't want to talk about what had just happened so for now Optimus being Black Spider and the Cybertronian equivalent of a human experiment was going to be a secret between the two of them, at least until Elita was ready to talk.

The two made their way down the building just when Bulkhead and Wasp arrived.

"Aww come on, we missed the action!" exclaimed Wasp.

The two females didn't say anything to Bulkhead and Wasp which tipped them off to the fact that they didn't want to talk about whatever had happened. Without a word Elita transformed into vehicle mode while Sari claimed into Bulkhead and begun their trip back to the plant and Bulkhead's to Sumdac Tower to drop Sari off.

"Hey Bulkhead, how would you take it if one day your best friend whom you thought was dead suddenly showed up one day and was a decepticon?" Sari asked the large 'bot.

"I would never recover from the fact my best friend was a decepticon and spend way too long grieving over the person I thought I knew," replied Bulkhead thinking about his boot camp days.

'That is what I've been doing for stellar cycles now,' Bulkhead mentally added.

Sari fell silent and the rest of the ride was like that in complete silence. Both Sari and Elita hoped that sooner rather than later Black Spider would take Elita's offer of becoming a member of the team up.

#Sorry that the beginning was just shit alluding to Wasp and Bulkhead's past #I'm just excited to do this au's version of 'Where Thy Sting' #Which would be happening a lot sooner than in cannon #But I wanted to get 'Along came a spider' out of the way first #transformers #transformers animated au #tfa #tfa au #tfa optimus #tfa wasp #tfa bulkhead #tfa elita one #Mentioned bumblebee #tfa swap au #along came a spider #Also known as 'in which El forgets the order in which things happened in the actual episode but they're too lazy to rewatch the dam thing #So they just wing the hell gotta it' #tfa sari #sari sumdac #Funny story half way through writing this I realized that it would have been better #For me to just call swap Optimus Nemesis Prime instead of the name I came up with #I tried my best to keep Optimus in character but I feel like I fail #maccadams #maccdam

Which of your aus has sentinel suffer the most?

Um.. probably in my personal swap au. But for character development trust me.

Double swap au

Yes you did remember correctly, Bulkhead blames the whole thing on Wasp there was no reason for Bumblebee to become Goldbug if it weren't for the stockades

Yeah after Goldbug is revealed Bulkhead won't hesitate to play the blame game with Wasp and use Goldbug as evidence

I have the whole thing about Goldbug being in stasis set up in my head. So Optronix and Goldbug get split up from Lugnut at Blitzwing they meet up before Bumblebee wakes up but Optronix won't join the search because he's looking out for Bumblebee. Blitzwing tries to wake his friend up and is disappointed when it doesn't work. Anyway Optronix captures Sari has his reveal with Elita but not before baiting her away to capture Sari. Sari is put down near Goldbugs room and she goes up to him because she's cold and this thing is fluffy and warm, but she somehow manages to wake Goldbug up. Elita gets to her before much happens but Goldbugs now up and Bulkhead and Wasp get to see him. Despite the weird buzz Bulkhead recognizes Goldbugs voice as Bumblebees. Wasp apologies over and over but it means nothing to Goldbug (Mostly because was doesn't even have the I was ticked by Shockwave reasoning yet). Yeah Wasp avoids Bulkhead after that

Makes sense yep yep, Bulkhead is thoroughly not happy with Wasp

Oooo on Optronix and Goldbug getting split from Luggy and Blitzwing because that's what I imagined but I hadn't quite imagined how

The reveal has gotta be cool as hell and full of cool parallels to the scene we see in Along Came A Spider, but with so many interesting changes (such as Optronix's goal being revenge rather than purging his organic half)

Ooo on Sari waking Goldbug, that's gotta be an interesting interesting scene

The confrontation between Goldbug, Wasp, and Bulkhead has gotta be pretty tense, with neither of them all that happy with Wasp (which in his defense he was duped, but none of them know he was duped yet yeah)

#maccadam #transformers #double swap au #like the scene where goldie wakes up has gotta be moderately terrifying for sari #especially since I'm betting Goldbug is quite a bit larger than he was in his previous frame #tfa bumblebee #goldbug #< same guy 1/2 #tfa optimus prime #optronix #< same guy 2/2 #tfa sari #tfa shockwave #tfa bulkhead #tfa wasp #tfa lugnut #tfa blitzwing

What if TFA Optimus Prime was the retired war solider, and Ratchet was the one that was expelled from the academy?... What if Elita was in the war with OP and she died (or became corrupted into Arachnia by Megatron)?... What if when Ratchet was expelled, his BFF Arcee quits the school and stays by his side?... What if Sentinel was Ratchet’s jerky former friend, instead of Optimus?... What if the TFA Team was Older Optimus, Ratchet, Arcee, Bumblebee + Bulkhead?... (Prowl is on Jazz’s team!) =D

So would this be an age/character swap AU???

It would be nice as I always wanted to see more about Ratche's background and his relationship with Arcee.

F: Is there a song or a playlist to associate with the Radiant Hope AU?

M: What’s the weirdest AU scenario you’ve ever come up with?  Did it turn into a story?

N: Any fic ideas brewing that you’d care to share?

O: What are your thoughts on people writing fanfic of your fanfic?

Playlists still being built but!

M: Weirdest AU is one my bf and I joke about where a bot finds an artifact that body swaps them to another iteration. One of my favorites is TFA Optimus swaps with TFP Optimus comes back and says “I think I went to hell..” ASFHJK it’s not an actual story but fun to think about.

N: Right now I’m outlining chapters of Radiant Hope in my head, thinking specifically of a chapter in which Hot Rod tries to get Starscream and Skyfire together and it goes absolutely terribly which ends with everyone upset.

O: Honestly as long as you link me to it so I can see, it sounds extremely sweet and flattering. Id cry if anyone made any content regarding my AUs.
