So. Mortal Machines Ex-Cons. Could always explain their existence as an additional punishment for the too well adapted Team Prime.
Knockout is gonna freeaaaaaaaaaaak. When all the biology explanations are done, he will likely demand a mall trip. And try getting drunk. He also gives me the air of a nervous driver for some reason? Like, we all know he was vain as all get out. So maybe that transfers into an extreme fear of being hurt, because humans can scar, and it does NOT buff out. Add to that the fact that he is well versed in the darker aspects of driving and yeah. Paranoid KO.
Starscream would be a funny outlier to add to this as well. Like, dudes casually in a coma then POP he's in Unit Es base, with the other cons, and wide awake. How would flight-withdrawal affect him I wonder.
Shockwave would immediately be trying things out with his new form. Once done, he would throw himself into fixing the Squishy Plague.
Soundwave has a pet birb. African Grey Parrot maybe? It's Laserbeak. He's his usual quiet kid self. Maybe Bee teaches him sign? Human sign ofc. He totally knows CSL already.
Megs is just broken. And broken Megs is vulnerable Megs. He defiantly has ADHD tho. Idk why. I just always HC he does.
oK i LOVE all of this???
Knockout is absolutely uneasy, he knows very well humans are fragile [Silas was a fun little test of how fragile] and so, he is indeed a bit of a nervous driver, because while he could buff out a scratch as a bot, he can't replace anything in a human body as easily. And he absolutely made sure everyone has an impeccable wardrobe, i feel sorry for whomever is paying for it though--
Starscream is just wondering if this is just some horrendous nightmare most of the time, and he really just wants everything done with.
Shockwave surprisingly ??? Creates a bunch of cures??? For human illnesses that tend to frustrate people, and he simply shrugs when asked how he did it. Cybertronian science apparently made the cure for the common cold easy.
Who'd have known?
Soundwave is indeed now with an entire menagerie of pets, because he now has adopted 2-3 birds, 2 cats, a lizard, and somehow, a bat. In his defense, he didn't know bats weren't normal human pets, but the little one was doing no harm, being a fruit bat.
He has also kindly taken to the ASL lessons, but has also received a phone from Raf, which he uses a Text to Speech app on. Alternatively, he's resorted to using social media audios to express certain emotions.
The kids cannot stop laughing.
Megatron had...some issues adjusting, his fighting instincts indeed manifesting into what humans would call ADHD, for which he has taken to mild sparring, if only to calm his nerves.
Optimus has offered him to perhaps spend some time, and talk. After all, for them all, it has been a very overwhelming experience.

Domestic Au SkyStar fluff part 1
AHAHAAAA DOMESTIC AU HEADCANON TIME AGAIN SkyStar fluff edition 
I don’t know any specifics about this domestic au but I’m loving the actual fuck out of it. I feel like it’s a mix of angsty and fluffy, and maybe for this specific version of a domestic au, I’ll make a post to flesh out the specifics bc I feel as though it’s domestic with a twist??? Anywhoozles have some head canons uwu (plus a ficlet <3)
Love languages: Starscream= primarily Physical touch; Skyfire=equally quality time and acts of service
I feel as though Starscream has been incredibly touch starved for a long time, which prompts him to be very touchy. I think there’s specific conditions ofc tho; such as, he will be more touchy-feely with specific people than others and this is very much a trust thing. I feel as though pre-war/in a no-war universe Skyfire would be very very high up in the list. 
some of these headcanons may also be character exploring but my assumption is this; Starscream’s upbringing either involved a lot, a lot, a lot of physical touch as affection and so he naturally just craves it a lot, or he grew up with so little of it that it makes him seek (hehe) it out desperately, despite never wanting to admit how much he wants/needs it. 
Skyfire reads as a people pleaser to me. From what I’ve gathered he’s incredibly mild-mannered but wants very badly to be wanted. I feel as though his past isn’t touched on much (another note; I’m slow at consuming transformers content but I feel like he doesn’t appear much in many verses and he is grossly underrated and I will die for him) so my headcanons go as such; Being a flier in a society that puts emphasis on functionism/class, and given his impressive size, I feel as though he feels a need to belong. He wants to make other bots happy because it makes him happy. 
Skyfire and Starscream meet while studying some specific sciencey subject in this au, and think they won’t run into each other again once they complete their studying/certification, until BAM they wind up scientists in the same lab. Instant besties when they realize how much they actually have in common. 
It’s such a slowburn relationship and so blatantly obvious that they’re slowly becoming a thing that the people closest to them are just waiting for the announcement that they plan on becoming conjunx endurae. 
They absolutely go feral to defend each other no matter the au, fight me 
Skyfire isn’t violent, really, but it’s a general rule of thumb not to mess with Starscream or he will act. Vice versa, except Starscream can and will make life hell for anyone who hurts Skyfire’s feelings. 
Skyfire calls Starscream, “My starlight” but also uses names like “dear” or sometimes the more playful “Screamer”
Starscream doesn’t seem the type to use too many pet names strangely? I feel like he could come up with one very quickly, but he just chooses not to use them. He sticks with calling Skyfire things like “Sky,” or “Sweetspark” or “Darling. 
If cooking is a thing in this au, Skyfire’s your guy. I mentioned in another post that I thought Starscream wasn’t the greatest cook, but I feel like they, together, are a good match bc Skyfire can cook very well, while Starscream inevitably knows how to make it fancy/suited to the occasion/will know what wine to pair with it.
Things Pining Skyfire does that just make sense: memorizes Starscream’s favorite (cybertronian) coffee (or tea, I can’t decide which one he would prefer) order to surprise him with, makes sure to organize the lab in a way that isn’t too hard for Starscream to access (he’s happy to help but he knows it’s frustrating), plans little scientific expeditions for them to take and chooses really pretty or intriguing places. Every place he chooses, he chooses more with Starscream in mind.
Things Pining Starscream does that just make sense: purposefully rearranges the lab so that things are harder to access so he can ask Skyfire to pick him up to reach things (it becomes an unintentional, mutual thwarting of courting attempts that they laugh over later), asks questions in Skyfire’s area of expertise toward the ends of their shifts in the lab so they can spend a few more minutes talking. Sometimes accidentally disassociates and fantasizes about a future with Skyfire as Cybertron’s greatest pair of scientists. 
Pseudo/not-officially-dates-but-they’re-both-pining dates they go on; Stargazing. Visiting planetariums. I imagine their little pseudo dates are more lowkey. I also feel as though Skyfire is a secret partier but not like, a wild crazy partier; more that, in private and with the right people, he becomes a bit less shy, and a little more loosened up/fun-having. I feel as though he and Starscream sometimes meet up for a drink or two.
