what would the terran's reactions be to like.... megatronus prime/the fallen or liege maximo?? or any of the 13 originals tbh, and that in alot of continuities op is kind of implied (if not straight up said) to be the thirteenth?
Yknow, actually this gives me a great opportunity to somewhat explain how my AU has the Primes.
I may write a fic off of this, actually.
Anyway: here we go.
Prima
All are somewhat enamored with the whole concept of them basically being their god. Finds their rumored appearance quite cool, and finds it cool that the Matrix is in their sword.
The Fallen/Megatronus Prime
Not quite so fond. Weird, creepy, none of them like him. Thrash genuinely could not roll his optics any harder at his ‘tragic backstory’ that people wrote to make him sympathetic.
Alpha Trion
Kinda interesting. Kept track of history, ran an archive, held onto the matrix between Primes after the others were all dead, originally thought to be basically immortal with how long he lived? Even though he wasn’t actually a true prime, apparently. And did eventually die, but body was never actually recovered. Mysterious, and kind of interesting, overall.
Nexus Prime
Cool as balls. There’s not much else to say, they just think he’s cool as hell. Still don’t quite understand the whole combining thing, but it sounds a little cooler now.
Vector Prime
There are so many possibilities, that it simply blew their tiny newspark processors. Probably the coolest so far.
Solus Prime
Tied with Vector. Originally from the original myth, they weren’t too interested. But hearing the bit from Optimus completely separate from myth, they immediately loved Solus. Thrash loves the hammer, Hashtag thinks it’s very girlboss of him to even exist, Twitch loves the whole ‘can make really cool weapons with the hammer’ thing, Jawbreaker thinks the story overall is pretty inspiring, and kinda cute (albeit somewhat tragic) that he died very quickly after his partner, and was the one who caused the ‘partners/conjuxes come to the hall as well’ thing, Nightshade is very enamored with him being trans. Overall, it’s a hard tie with Vector.
Amalgamous Prime
The shifting bit is awesome. They understand the Decepticons a bit better, and understand better why they even exist in the first place. HT also thinks he has mad rizz for having seduced an Autobot like that.
Liege Maximo
The fact that this bitch is meant to be like their version of satan is kinda… they’re honestly perhaps 5% impressed, at most. And the whole ‘point of origin for all decepticons’ is really laughable to them.
“…at least he’s kinda sexy…?” - Jawbreaker
Alchemist Prime
Kinda boring, but also super cool in that chill uncle way. Also fun that he fucked off from the war and ran a bar. Amazing. Quality decision making skills.
“Like Tarantulas, but in a holy way. And a lot more popular/intimidating.” - Nightshade
Onyx Prime
They think he’s kinda cool, being a big beastformer space pope. Nightshade and Jawbreaker especially like him.
Micronus Prime
Twitch thinks he’s kinda cool, being probably as little as her. Really shows that someone as small as her can be great like that.
Quintus Prime
They all have a unique fascination with him, even if pretty boring. Nightshade is especially interested by the fact that he’s the scientist of the bunch.
Thirteen
The original written myth of Thirteen is incredibly bland to them, and Thrash remarked that clearly they didn’t do a good job. However, when brought the idea of them being Amalgamous’s sparkling, a shifter just like him, and agender, they were all far more interested, and found them a little bit cooler. However, with still so little known, they’re not very interesting compared to the others.
Nova Prime
The fact that he’s known for having not been the best person, yet still respectable enough as ‘The Master Kindler’ and having reintroduced Kindling to table now that the wells were dying, really interests them. Also find it cool how Nova is genderfluid.
“Girlboss, gaslight, gatekeep. 👌” - Hashtag
Sentinel Prime
They’re pretty confident that the very fact that Optimus refused to say his name is enough to say he’s clearly not a very good person, and being told of all that he’d done in his time, they all decidedly hated him.
Optimus Prime
Optimus refused to share very much about himself, beyond his own achievements throughout his reign. They think even higher of him than before. Megatron later revealed that a downside is that he is a loner/introvert & a/antisocial, and usually rather cold/not very personable with people outside of his personal circle of ‘loved ones’.
Rodimus Prime
Nothing was said to his current location, but was noted that he is currently ‘in-training’/not fully a ‘Prime’ yet (won’t be until Op steps down/passes), generally quite polite and sweet if shy, quite strongly religious but really quiet about it, Captain to a crew on a neutral ship, remains neutral himself rather than aligned, a peacetime leader compared to Optimus being a ‘wartime leader’, and technically the true Prime of the reign the Terrans were born under, so they’d be Rodimus’s rather than Optimus’s.
Twitch is even more fond of him, and the others a little more impressed/interested into the prospect of doing a little research into him and those comics.
«—-–-—»
This is canon divergent, so things don’t completely align up with canon.
I happen to HC Solus as TransMasc/FtM & had a female lover, Amalgamous as the original Decepticon leader & have had an ex-Autobot lover + two sparklings, Alchemist as being a ‘peacetime leader’/kept the peace until he died (of old age), and Nova as having revived the practice of Kindling and very protective over sparklings + genderfluid.
Thx.

Funny idea for Dratchrod:
[Ace!Rodimus & Creative (Artist/Writer/whatever)!Rodimus HCs here.]
Rodimus joins up into the Dratchet for emotional fulfillment/companionship, but it’s more like his end is qpr, as he’s a sex-averse ace. And being it’s kind of ‘friends with benefits’, the benefits he reaps?
Ratchet is a doctor, and Drift is formerly the infamous serial killer Deadlock. They both have ample knowledge about how to kill someone, what would be the result if these were the circumstances and this happened, if I did this what would happen, how long would it take to do this, etc. so he always has his sources available, to just ask.
And he is frequently coming in at random times to ask those kinds of questions. Even at more awkward times. And no matter how much damage he does to himself on the way.
And that is to say, there was a time he’s walked in when they’re ‘facing and he’s started to ask, and he just turns around like ‘nope, uh-uh, icky icky’. So now he just comes in wearing something around his head over his optics as a blindfold, and then he’ll ask. Because now he can’t see it, and he’s a lot less grossed out.
And they’re both like ‘Roddy, you can just comm us, and we’ll ping you back when we’re done.’
(At first it’s just Drift, bc Ratchet isn’t actually aware that Rod is ace, and he finds it incredibly annoying, and honestly thinks Rod is just trying to gauge how mad they would be if he did said thing/caused a disaster, but after a lengthy conversation he’s a lot less annoyed. He’s honestly more annoyed that Rod keeps doing this and giving himself dents in various places, as he runs into walls, now.)
Idk just funny idea of creative!Roddy reaping the benefits from having an ex-SK and a doctor as S/Os. And ace!Roddy doing the blindfold thing and both of them being exasperated bc ‘damnit roddy look at how many dents you’ve given yourself.’/he keeps hurting himself in some stupid, silly way.

Is it wrong to HC that the Terrans think a Zoo is like a pet store? Because I could see that happening
No. No it is not. I think the incorrect quote about the zoo being jail and having done crimes also fits very well. XD Also, if that’s a reference to Rescue Bots S1E6/“Walk on the Wild Side”, *forehead kiss*
In fact, when I got your ask yesterday, I started writing a fic, or at least the dialogue to it. Dunno if I’ll finish it, but this ask inspired me to it.
Here, I’ll give you what I wrote, as a treat.
«—-–-—»
“What are they in for?”
“Thrash, they're not being sentenced, or in prison.”
“Can they leave?”
“No, they're not supposed to.”
Thrash squinted at her, and it seemed that his point had been proven, even if he was wrong.
He pointed at a penguin. “I bet that one killed someone.”
Dot cringed, and Robby facepalmed.
“That one there probably maimed another of it's own kind.” Tarantulas said with a little laugh, gesturing to a walrus.
“Definitely.” Thrash agreed, looking at it too.
“Ooh, ooh, that seal there might've committed vehicular manslaughter.” Hashtag enthusiastically joined in.
“Mmmm...”
“I don't know how it would do that, but it very well could be possible...”
“I think it's actually a mafia boss, that goes after poachers.” Nightshade added, joining the fun.
“Nightshade wins.” Hashtag announced.
Clearly none of them could read the room. Or, well, the immediate vicinity.
Robby and Mo groaned, while Dot sighed.

Funny ideas for the Terrans
- Yknow how when little kids fall over they fill their lungs with enough air to wail like an air siren? Thrash does that sometimes.
- Nightshade - being a bird - can’t see glass after getting their alt mode. This means they have to be careful, and are always very cautious to make sure there’s some sort of a perch to land on beforehand.
this is 100% because while for a while Dot left the kitchen window open bc it was nice outside, one night she closed it, and they would normally swoop in using mass shifting and land on the counter to greet her and Alex in the morning before work, or help with the dishes. But it was closed, so they confidently swooped in, believing it was still open, and ramming straight into it head on, smashing their beak into the glass (the window cracked), then fell. It was quiet a moment before they started absolutely wailing hysterically on the ground, because that really hurt their fragile/sensitive beak. Dot, horrified and feeling terrible, immediately rushed out and whisked them up to comfort them. That is how it was discovered they’re blind to glass now, and ever since she has put stickers on the windows to help indicate if they’re open or closed for them.
- Twitch will sometimes get zoomies, except she’s zooming so fast and so completely ‘no thought head empty’/hyperfocused on zooming, she ends up stuck in the dirt, and has to be pulled out. Then she’s off and within the next two minutes she’s done it again.
- Hashtag lags sometimes. She’s an internet hotspot, basically, and those have their troubles, so sometimes she’ll lag like that after overuse or something. It leads to some silly things, and once she was stuck so long the others turned it into the mannequin challenge.
- Jawbreaker has turned really big tires into hamster wheels sometimes, and has even been caught sleeping in them. This has lead to him inadvertently winning hide and seek.
