A Small Spoiler For A Picture That I Can Not Yet Lay Out.

Hey there, I really love your art, and I wanted to know if you can do the rest of the Burns Family as Robots please ???

I am very happy to draw, but I'm afraid that I can not do it quickly. Studying at the university is quite difficult, but I hope that I can find time for a drawing of the Burns family!

Will u post on ao3?

Hi Anon! I don't really know if I'll post on ao3. I have an account there, but I didn't plan on posting anything there. However, there's really a lot of content on my Cyberform AU. So maybe I should think about it.

I literally have a plan for Lore Posts:

And that's not all of what's planned! Maybe later, when I have at least five main posts ready, then I'll start posting them on ao3. (There are literally two more posts left, in fact, before that amount). However, publishing there might be a bit difficult, but that's okay, I'll think of something.

And also, I think it's worth making a small announcement! Dear anons! You can address me as "Author", but my main nickname is "Sota"! But you can address me as you find it more convenient. Once again, I want to say that I am very glad for your interest! (sorry that there was no post yesterday, I was a little stuck at work, soon I will answer the questions you asked me)

how do humans who get cyberformed usally react to finding out what their cybertronian freind is doing to them?

the reaction guess is probably different from person to person but what usally happens?

Hi Anon! (Thanks for the question, I'm so glad!)

In fact, the reaction of different people is really extremely diverse, but all this can be combined into "five stages of acceptance".

It's not that there are five of them, basically there are only three reactions and they depend on whether the person had anything to lose in life, what kind of relationship he had with his parents and other factors.

The initial reaction of those who react to their situation is extremely aggressive. Anger, misunderstanding, confusion, all of it is deeply entwined in their chest, pressing like a weight and intensifying with pain. They do not understand why their cybertronian friend and trusted comrade decided to do this to them, they cannot accept reality for some time and deny what is happening (deny the situation). For the most part, this is the reaction of those who have families, or those who see that they had a duty to "humanity", or those who are afraid of leaving behind their achievements (in my AU, however, the cyberformed later face alienation from their former human brothers). People who initially flare up with anger are simply going through the five stages of acceptance of the situation. From deep denial and disbelief (lasts a short period of time), a furious outburst (anger), an attempt to understand whether it is possible to reverse the process (bargaining), numbness (depression) and then acceptance of the situation, an attempt to get used to the new reality (resignation). Adaptation is difficult for such people, they can be stubborn, flare up with irritation, as a rule, their Cybertronian friends provide support, knowing that it is difficult and unusual for them. It is because of them, for the most part, that Cybertronians try to unite the cyberformed into groups, thinking that this will help them come to terms faster and accept the idea that everything is not so scary, because next to them there are friends and those who have gone through the same process.

The second reaction, those who are confused, but mostly calm. I wrote in the "Second Part" that usually these are the people who tend to be more observant, they are calm and attentive in themselves. They understand what is happening earlier, they may have a flash of misunderstanding at the beginning (a short quick anger), but such people are more inclined to listen to their Cybertronian friend. To understand what exactly prompted him to act this way. Of course, they can be irritated or sad for some time, but resignation to the situation comes faster for them. Usually people with such a reaction can be stubborn for some time in adapting to the Cybertronian society, but their way out is studying sciences and professions. The feeling of order and consistency calms them down, and the support of Cybertronian friends gives them time to accept life in a new way at their own pace (some of these people are deeply inspired by the idea of ​​​​exploring everything in a new, more advanced way, as a rule, they are flexible in their thoughts)

The third reaction, enthusiasts in general. They may seem frivolous in their joy of becoming a Cybertronian, even if it means going through pain. However, these are the ones who know that they had nothing more to lose in their previous human life, or, on the contrary, they are running away from the life they had. For them, becoming a Cybertronian = starting life from scratch. Being yourself and not being ashamed of your character, not being constrained by rules, traditions or other things. Probably, the number of people with the third reaction includes those whose life has been permeated with Cybertronian culture and bots since childhood (and there are such, for example, like Daniel). In the case of this group, adaptation occurs so quickly and naturally that they rush to soften the reactions of the first group and help the second to reveal themselves.

Usually, Cybertronians take the cyberforming human to a safe place, they have one (at least for the Autobots, rest in peace to those chosen by the Decepticons). There, the former humans are surrounded not only by safety and security, but also by support from other cyberformers and their guardians and friends. I will write about this place later, as it is important for understanding both the reaction of the human government and the place that the former humans themselves have taken in the world.

That's all, just three categories, of course it all depends on the person and a little later I'll make a post with a list of characters that are present in this AU. If you want to know how this or that character reacted, you can write to me, I'll be happy to answer :).

Part 3 Character List

Metal Metalists🤘✨ For @ogurizz

TFP HC/AU

So you know how Raf was able to understand Bumblebee’s binary speech pattern? What if the reason for this was because he had encountered Cybertronians before, but just doesn’t remember?

Raf was born to a large family, and has often felt overlooked despite his outstanding intellect. So what if, when he was younger, he had been left to his own devices a lot?

Imagine that one day, he is (briefly) forgotten in the car while his mom and siblings go grocery shopping. He’s not even a year old yet, so he’s stuck in his carseat. Obviously he’s a baby and has no idea what’s going on, so he doesn’t find it weird when the family car starts making funny noises. It’s mostly chirps and whirs and beeps, yet somehow it comes across as comforting, and baby Raf giggles at the sounds. Thank goodness, for his sake, his mom comes back shortly after.

As he gets older and into his toddler years, he’s allowed to wander the house while the rest of his family is busy handling his siblings. More often than not he waddles to the garage, paying a visit to his family’s “singing” car. Whenever he tries to describe his discovery to his siblings he becomes frustrated, because he doesn’t have the words yet. His siblings barely listen to him anyways.

In fact, there was a time his family was concerned for his speech and cognitive development. He wasn’t talking like other toddlers his age, and nearly got held back from starting school. Thankfully, he caught up to his peers quickly… not long after the family’s car was “stolen” when he was 3.

The kicker? I like to pretend it was a Vehicon.

The new issue of Windblade is out today! Here are a few more Camien character designs I did for this chapter of the Combiner Wars. I hope you all enjoy the issue!!

It doesn't matter if he's small or not, Garp will still do what he wants and sometimes make Bogard angry. It seems to me that if Bogard had been a tontatta, it would have been more difficult for Garp to evade responsibility. Who checks their pockets thinking there is a spare cookie in them?

I am g1 fan so I wodering, What happen to g1 human how they cyberform? Witwicky family was it all once or over time? Chip it was Decpticon how it happened to him? What happen with Raoul? Also I like your au vary much so far🫶

(Sorry if my English is not great)

Hi Anon! Don't worry I got you! (You're doing great! English isn't my native language either, so you're doing pretty well!) Thank you, I'm glad you like my AU!

Some of them were cyberformed, including: Sparkplug Witwicky, Spike Witwicky, Carly, Daniel Witwicky, Chip Chase, Raoul. Of course there were other characters like Astoria, but I didn't take them because I found them less interesting (and I think their influence on the plot is less significant).

In my story, the Witwicky family is quite large and is divided into two large branches, the first branch is headed by Sparkplug, the second branch with Ron at the head (so in my universe, Sam from Bayverse is part of this large family, not left without the supervision of relatives hehe). I will also make a small note that at the time when the events of G1 take place, Spike in my AU is older, he already has a wife Carly and a teenage son Daniel. (Everything is more or less canon, just a little older, but otherwise the events do not change). Sparkplug, Spike and Carly worked closely with the Cybertronians, since they essentially established contact first, the human government could not brush them off. The government allowed them as agents for communication. Among the Cybertronians, they found loyal friends and a company that probably understood them. Daniel probably got his pass later, when the Ark opened up a zone for human agents (in terms of training, he switched to distance learning. Plus, the government decided that Cybertronians could teach a teenager something and he would share the knowledge with other agents). They were the first to go through the cyberformation process, which shocked the government.

In fact, the entire family from the first branch was cyberformed, the sudden loss of contact for the second branch was explained by the fact that they moved to another country, and in this case, relatives can really lose contact. Why they decided to cyberform them at all was because Spike and Sparkplug actively participated in battles, they were often captured by the Decepticons, and they were often exposed to other dangers. Optimus heard a lot of worries from his Autobots, so he decided to protect them in this way, besides, they were already christened as "Honorary Autobots". Nevertheless, during a long acquaintance, he understood that family is important for people, so he thought for a long time about whether to allow them to become Cybertronians (they were lucky that the whole family were close friends of Cybertronians, this simplified Optimus's moral struggle). I think the order of infection was as follows: Sparkplug, then Spike and Carly (at the same time), and then Daniel.

Sparkplug was infected and cyberformed after the episode where his mind was taken over (I'm not sure, but it was Season 1, Episode 11). The man was angry, afraid that this would separate him from Spike, Carly, and his grandson, but his worries were in vain. If you remember, in Season 2, I think Episode 17 ("Autobot Spike"), Spike suffered from a Decepticon attack. In my AU, this event even happened, but his injuries were not so significant. Nevertheless, this incident became extremely indicative for the Autobots, which is why Spike and Carly were infected, just after the man began to recover. After this, the Autobots basically had a "protocol" in which a person with the status of "honorary Autobot" under certain circumstances must go through Cyberforming. Oddly enough, Spike and Carly knew what was going to happen to them, as Bumblebee and Ironhide did not hide their feelings and asked permission directly. Daniel was probably the last one, because Spike and Carly wanted to be able to comfort their son during this painful process. The Autobots and Witwicky did not wait until he was in danger and acted first.

Regarding Chip Chase, no, he did not become a Decepticon. His show up for the first time already more than enough, he literally in the very first episode with his appearance was in danger. In my AU, he was allowed as a human technology specialist, a kind of consultant for the Cybertronians. Because of his lack of mobility and knowledge, the Decepticons began to take him prisoner so often for ransom and exchange that one could joke that every second "Tuesday and Thursday" he appears to them (this became an unpleasant part of the routine). At first, the Decepticons treated him with disdain, but then he became a kind of window into human culture, relatively willingly answering questions and giving explanations. The Seekers were especially impressed by him, oddly enough, it was his disability that was the reason for this. They probably compared the loss of mobility with the loss of the ability to fly and it touched them to the quick, besides, Chip is smart. They just thought it would be great to get this mind into their ranks, only they didn't take into account that the guy was a supporter of the Autobots. The Autobots asked him for permission and he gave it quite consciously, cyberforming was his chance to walk (and fly) again. Despite all the efforts of the Seekers to get Chip to become a Decepticon, fortunately this did not happen. When he became a Cybertronian, they tried to influence his programming, but Chip resisted this (although it was difficult). In the AU, he became a flight instructor and a first-class pilot using his observations of the Seekers and using human aerobatics. Roughly speaking, even before the appearance of the Aerialbots, the Decepticons acquired a dangerous enemy in the sky (and given Chip's undeniable superiority at night, the Decepticons began to appear in the sky less often at this time. If there were missions at night, they flew only in trines).

Now about Raoul, although his encounter with the Autobots is not different in any way, Raoul essentially took advantage of the ticket to a relatively poor life after helping (sorry, I have a headcanon that he is from a very vulnerable segment of the population). He is a great guy (with a kind heart) and he has this chemistry with Tracks. After the encounter with Megatron, Tracks was concerned about the safety of his comrade, he was afraid that this confrontation and the vindictiveness of the Decepticons could put him in danger. He talked Blaster into it and thanks to his actions, the government was literally forced to make him an agent. Since it is not known what is going on with his family or friends, his disappearance in the gang was rather perceived as the fact that he got involved with the wrong people and "disappeared". Tracks did not hide it and almost openly asked him if he wanted to become a Cybertronian, and since it seems to me that Raoul is an enthusiast, he took it positively. He had something to run from in the human world and took it as a chance for a new life. As a Cybertronian, he mainly began to master engineering as a specialty, although he definitely likes to have fun and play pranks.

For the rest, to understand what Cyberform AU is: Character List Lore parts: Part 1 Part 2 Part 3 Answers to questions: Q&A1, Q&A2, Q&A3, Q&A4, Q&A5, Q&A6

Hello! I am curious, is it acceptable to use your AU concepts for roleplay, fic, etc.? Especially the cyberforming stages, they're just *so* cool!

Hi Anon! Yes, you can use my ideas, headcanons and AUs for roleplaying, fanfics and other creativity. The only thing I ask is that you mention that I am the author of the idea with my lore, mention in tags or mark (because I would also like to read if it is a fanfic). Also, you can always drop by later, because I will continue to write and supplement the AU (and I will be glad to receive questions that were not asked before).

I am very glad that you like it!
