Honestly, I need more transformers transforming in my life:
Like some of them do it now and again when they need their alt mode
But some of them do it obsessively, compulsively
Like mid-conversation with another mech they r just like “Ye I was talking to soandso chuchutsh[turns into a car like its the equivalent of leaning back in your chair] mech said it was suchandsuch.”
For others, its like a natural reaction like someone spooks them from behind and there like SHITFUCK turns into a boat.
And this can work both ways. During earlier missions, Prowl is ashamed to admit, the number of stakeouts and surveillance missions that went bust because a human sneezed next to a bot a scared them into root mode.
@ their therapist; I just SNEEZED and this motorbike just TURNED INTO A FREAKIN ROBOT!
Also in romantic situations just to bots chillin’ in a car park, not an inch apart bc they’re so gay.
And that’s how the Autobots found out about car insurance.
Don’t tell me the likes of both Sunstreaker and Starscream didn’t spend a week in their alt mode bc of a robot blemish on their faceplates.
If we’re talking G1 that Megatron didn’t put himself in a drawer to avoid his squabbling underlings.
Definitely a bots worst nightmare is coming during interfacing and transforming.
“Oh no in the face?” “In the face and then on the floor…” “Nooooooooo”
I bet that there were also mechs that, instead of having seizures or maybe as a form of tourettes, would change, or start changing without prompt.
Or mechs that either due to aging or injury take excruciatingly long times to transform.
Or in Blurrs case can transform very quickly but risk pulling something when they do.
Transformers Prime: Everyone’s a goddamn baby bean protoform edition
All the humans: Suddenly baby sitters
Optimus: Very sleepy baby boy. Is always the one to split up fights. Bumblebee: Loud boy. Clings on Optimus all the time. Ratchet: Naturally nurturing, has not developed his grumpiness yet. Arcee: Lone wolf, but very sweet to those she allows to get close. Bulkhead: Rowdy boy! Miko often goes “No Bulkhead!” Smokescreen:
All over the place, please settle down wild babby boy
Wheeljack:
Also a rowdy boy! Him and Bulkhead likes to nap near (or on) Miko. Ultra Magnus: Keeps close to Optimus, often only observes the others. Not prone to cuddling. Cliffjumper: Likes tagging along with Arcee. Some times tags along with the rowdy boys.
Megatron: Very bossy, but also very snuggly. Will fight Optimus for snacks. Starscream: Is somehow always found in places he shouldn’t be able to reach. Also louder than Bumblebee. Somehow. Soundwave: Very calm. Already got his tentacles, which he uses to toy around with tiny objects. Rather keeps to himself but doesn’t shun from company. Shockwave: He’s a calm boy too. Is often found with Ratchet for some reason. Knockout: He was born cocky and shiny. Often watches his own reflection in well, literally anything with a reflection. Prone to cling on Starscream or Breakdown. Breakdown: Likes to follow Knockout around. Some times joins the rowdy boys ™. Dreadwing & Skyquake: It’s impossible to keep these two apart. They are also surprisingly fast and always up to no good. Predaking: LORGE BABY BOY. Very playful, also very gentle.
