#also the concept of mtos is extremely interesting to me and i wanted to tackle it too

Why is flashchase a former... everything? Did his old jobs break his principles or were there specific events that got him kicked?

It was mostly about the nature of his... creation. He's an mto, specifically from a tiny team created for extremely specific assassinations that won't lead down to Who was the killer. As an autobot mto there was a lot of "we're the good guys" trash fed to him, and he was GOOD at what he was made to do (well. still is), but at some point he fulfilled the mission and there was little else he was good for.

So he joined the Wreckers. And he was good at it too. It's just at some point he realized, when he was allowed time for some thought and reflection, and understanding of himself, things they did and things decepicons did weren't too far from each other. It's just that autobots did it for the "right" reasons.

He's a loving person, at the core. It didn't really align with what he Felt was right, but at the same time he doesn't really know Different.

Basically, he disowned his badge, his teams, his past and wants to be an actual good guy, even if it's hard and he's deemed a traitor, cuz boy he's got some autobot blood on his hands.

#thisisfrenchhouse #flashchase #he's rebuilt his body the way he wanted. he wants to look less... like he used to #but he still wants others to know he means business and you shouldnt mess w him #(painted in energon color... danger danger) #sorry i love autobots who question their faction #also the concept of mtos is extremely interesting to me and i wanted to tackle it too #its fair to mention i dont think optimus was entirely Aware of this lil project
