Hi hello so idk if anyone else has said anything about this but I'm making a post about it cause I can (MILD TF EARTHSPARK SPOILERS AHEAD???)

So recently I got into Transformers: Earthspark and the show is so gOOD LIKE AAAAAA- the details in it is phenomenal and the dialogue they have for the characters is great. But one thing I noticed the other day was with the GHOST logos on Optimus Prime and Megatron were different than each other
I noticed how in the Ghost logo for Optimus, it has the Autobot insignia while with Megatron, it has the Decepticon insignia. Which would make sense, the logo goes with their corresponding sides. HOWEVER. HOWEVER when thinking about this more, it kinda hurts; Megatron should have the Autobot insignia, not the Decepticon insignia.
The reason I say this is because in Episode 12: Outtakes, Jawbreaker goes and asks how Elita-1 and Megatron got their alt modes. Megatron went first with telling the story on how he got his alt mode and how he chose it just before the end of the war and this was when he stopped fighting against Optimus and joined him with his faction: Autobots. Megatron had stated when talking about his past that his priorities had changed and wanted something better for future Cybertronians.
Jawbreaker asked how Megatron got Optimus to trust him after the two were enemies, in which Megs responded with "By scanning an Earth vehicle." JB was surprised because he knew that meant Megatron had to give up his Cybertronian alt mode and it didn't seem fair. Megatron agreed because that is what he believed, at first. Megs only changed his alt mode when they had gotten attacked by seekers from in the air, he had no choice but to take the fight to them and scan the last aircraft on the base. With this act, Megatron said he had defended his new friends and proved his loyalty to Optimus. He no longer identified himself as a Decepticon, but people still treated him as such because of his past.
It's not fair with how much Megatron had sacrificed to prove himself, and still be treated unfairly by others. All he wants is a fair world where all Cybertronians, and Terrans, could live peacefully. It's a reason why Megatron had gotten so upset with how poorly they were treating arrested Decepticons and not even trying to give some of them a second chance.
This also is probably why he isn't exactly trusting of Ghost. Ghost keeps many secrets from others and leaves them in the dark with little to no information. Not to mention with all of the shady things that have been going on with them so Megs has valid reasoning not to trust them even though he has been 'working' for them.
Also I would like to rq mention how Ghost has been a thing for like 30 YEARS??? And how Optimus has been with them for that long but Megatron has only been with them for 15. So this also could correspond with how cruddy Ghost treats Megatron since he joined later, he asks a lot of questions, and doesn't exactly like to take BS from them.
TL;DR - Megatron needs to be treated fairly with all the shit he's sacrificed and had to deal with after joining Ghost

INTERMISSION (vela) — hesper
Part 2/3 || Part 1
------
Hesper Chambers was the troublemaker.
She was the second eldest sibling — a year younger than Carina and two years older than Vela. She spent long hours wandering the forest and mucking about however she could, getting her fingers into anything that caught her interest. It wasn’t unusual for her to vanish for a day. Her adventures left her with myriad scrapes and bruises, but she returned home grinning more often than not. Constellations of bandages covered her skin. Their mother chided her twice as often as the other siblings, but she also realized no amount of scolding or consequences would stop the child from exploring. So, she settled on teaching her medical salves in case their supply ever ran out.
A spark danced within Hesper, a flame that always hungered for more. It glimmered in her dark eyes. She carried a springy energy as well, a tendency to bounce on the soles of her feet, which hinted at a readiness to sprint, to leap, to dance on a whim.
This energy made people nervous. Hesper didn’t mind. In fact, she often relished it, delighted in the reactions she could earn from acts of mischief. She did push her luck at times, however, and eventually she stepped too far in drawing unwanted attention.
For several years, the Chambers children journeyed into the nearest town to attend school. They trekked along beaten, meandering paths in the woods until they reached the dirt road, backpacks heavy on their shoulders. One day, the headmaster’s son insulted a girl Hesper liked. Other children gawked and giggled around them while the girl bit her lip and fought back tears. Hesper clenched her fists, fixed her sharp gaze on the boy, and warned him he’d regret his words.
After class, she ran home ahead of her siblings. She locked herself in the bathroom, mixed ingredients their mother had discouraged them from mixing, and poured the foul brew into a vial. She slipped a drop into the boy’s water the next day. He smelled like swamp-water for a month. Showering proved futile in ridding himself of the scent; the hex clung to him like an unseen slime. When he accused Hesper, she only smiled sweetly and said the odor suited him.
Rumors spread like wildfire.
Their mother withdrew them from the school and began homeschooling them soon afterward. She never scolded Hesper directly, but she gave her the sort of pointed look that made the girl’s shoulders hunch and her gaze drop to her shoes. Tanova also assigned Hesper a heap of new chores.
“He deserved it,” Hesper mumbled to Vela later. They were scrubbing bowls coated in a sappy mix of herbs, their hands soapy and stinging from the hot water. “Why shouldn’t I have done it? It worked, didn’t it? He’ll think twice before he does anything like that again.” She glowered at an especially sticky dish and muttered, “They should thank me.”
Vela didn’t know whether she agreed, but she nodded anyway. At least they no longer needed to trudge the tedious route to school each day.
Agreeing with Hesper was easier than disagreeing. Vela knew she could never convince her sister of anything. So, when Hesper rambled about mischief or complained about the limitations of their mother’s lessons or the tedium of traditions or Carina’s perfectionism, Vela listened without argument.
Eventually, Hesper began trusting Vela as her sole confidante. Carina would have scolded her and informed their mother of her antics. Noelle shied away from any sort of disobedience.
Vela didn’t mind listening, usually. It was entertaining. A secondhand taste of rebellion, a glimpse into a mindset she never dared to follow.
She didn’t realize something was truly wrong until it was too late. Everything fell apart in a single night.
