"remind" a bot of their failure as a miner will surely scramble one's own memories of what's real and what's not. And now Soundwave has to deal with loosing the Bumblebee he once knew all over again, only made worse as they get thrown into another war, on opposing sides. End

Bumblebee, but while he reconized the High Guard, it was more like information then knowing them personally. He didn't even look at Soundwave properly. Cycles of isolation with the occasional visit from Darkwing to mock and +

After his dissapearance, the high guard were forced to except that Bee was caught and killed It wasn't until cycles later when the High guard captured who they believed to be spys, that soundwave saw a mech he believed long dead +

MaladaptiveGlitch🔞 @maladaptiveglitch.bsky.social · 23/08/2026

Until he finally slipped up And of course, it was a secret meeting with Soundwave that led to his exposure. Bee was captured the next day Sentinal taking great joy in ripping out his cog and throwing him down to Sublevel 50 to rot +

MaladaptiveGlitch🔞 @maladaptiveglitch.bsky.social · 23/08/2026

when the announcement was made, it just didn't sit right that he chose to stay. Thus Sentinal kept track. Monitoring the scout, making sure there were eyes on him as much as possible. He was about to relent that he was simply being paranoid as nothing indicated the scout of anything +

MaladaptiveGlitch🔞 @maladaptiveglitch.bsky.social · 23/08/2026

Soundwave. While yes it was believable that the mech believed the lies of the high guards failuars and betrayal, he was also well aware of how close he was to soundwave, and a gut feeling was gnawing at him that although the mech looked as heart broken and betrayed as the rest of iacon +

MaladaptiveGlitch🔞 @maladaptiveglitch.bsky.social · 23/08/2026

They were correct that Sentinal didn't care much about those beneath him and wouldn't give him a second thought. But his paranoia made up for that. Made him more hyperaware of his surroundings and who was moving around and doing what. And he already knew of Bumblebee and his relationship to +

MaladaptiveGlitch🔞 @maladaptiveglitch.bsky.social · 23/08/2026

but not high enough in the ranks to be noticeable It made him the perfect spy to remain on the inside to keep an eye on sentinal and track everything he was doing and convey it back to the high guard. It would have worked too, except they underestimated one thing +

MaladaptiveGlitch🔞 @maladaptiveglitch.bsky.social · 23/08/2026

they would like to have. But then Sentinal's betrayal happened, and the high guard were forced into hiding knowing what he's done but unable to expose him, getting thrown under the bus as traitors and failurs. Bee on the other hand, stayed behind. He was technically part of the high guard, +

MaladaptiveGlitch🔞 @maladaptiveglitch.bsky.social · 23/08/2026

Soundwave and Bee were close and developed a close bond. So much so that they would fantasize about the type of life they would live together once they won the war against the quintessons Where they would want to live, the type of living quarters and how'd they'd decorate, the type of family +

MaladaptiveGlitch🔞 @maladaptiveglitch.bsky.social · 23/08/2026

#Soundbee #tfo Thinking bout the scene where Bee knows the High Guards by name Bumblebee wasn't forged after the fall of the primes, he was around since the beginning part of the high guard as their best scout and worked along side Soundwave being the intel and communication expert under sentinal +

MaladaptiveGlitch🔞 @maladaptiveglitch.bsky.social · 22/08/2026

Yeeessss Hes in complete denial at first since he has his carefully perfected image and reputation to uphold, but spite and pettiness towards this new hero and hoping them how things are REALLY done wins over, and now he's basking in his new fan base

010

MaladaptiveGlitch🔞 @maladaptiveglitch.bsky.social · 21/08/2026

Showing and growing till they're nothing more then an egotistical show off who's lost the plot of what it means to be a hero and doing things their way, so much so that even starscream, THE super villian, is appalled and now begging Bee to come back

210

MaladaptiveGlitch🔞 @maladaptiveglitch.bsky.social · 21/08/2026

>:3c Lowkey thinking, they're arch rivals when something like an injury perhaps forces Bumblebee to either retire or step back for an indefinite amount of time. His stand-in at first is doing fine, but they don't have the same spark Starscream enjoyed with Bee Eventually the stand ins ego starts

Okay but what if some megamind like au for them?

MaladaptiveGlitch🔞 @maladaptiveglitch.bsky.social · 20/08/2026

To bed where Bumblebee will hold the seeker close again with promises tomorrow will be better As for Bumblebee should anything happen to Starscream, He just may never come out of his depression Forever a husk of the bot he once was functioning on autopilot like a machine instead of a sentient being

050

MaladaptiveGlitch🔞 @maladaptiveglitch.bsky.social · 20/08/2026

Instead Bumblebee does what he always does at the end of an episode He holds the Seeker close, letting him listen to the soft pulse of his spark, whispering comforting words and promises of his love before going through the motions of feeding him, cleaning up the seeker and taking them both

140

MaladaptiveGlitch🔞 @maladaptiveglitch.bsky.social · 20/08/2026

without Bumblebee. Its a long ugly cycle that goes on longer then any of his previous episodes One that when it passes, Starscream fully expects the bug to leave him for the horrible things he did and said He would desurve it after all

140

MaladaptiveGlitch🔞 @maladaptiveglitch.bsky.social · 20/08/2026

A profound influence over him triggers old traumas and insecurities Its rough, its ugly. He's switching between lashing out at the mech he loves so much in an effort to make him leave like he should, and will eventually do, and begging him to never leave him, how his life will fall apart

140

MaladaptiveGlitch🔞 @maladaptiveglitch.bsky.social · 20/08/2026

Starscream could not see himself being able to move on. That single thought alone triggers a spiral, one of the worst hes had in a long time The fear of loosing Bee, the mech he hold so dearly, so foundly in his spark, yet the sheer anger and disgust that another mech could have such

140

MaladaptiveGlitch🔞 @maladaptiveglitch.bsky.social · 20/08/2026

A horrible thought should for whatever reason, Bumblebee dissappears from his life, whether by his own choice or some unforseen circumstances Starscream just might finally and entirely loose it The one thing, the single mech keeping his already shitty life together,

150

MaladaptiveGlitch🔞 @maladaptiveglitch.bsky.social · 20/08/2026

Its when these episodes happen near the end of them that the underlining codependency between them is the worse, and its Starscream who realizes first when a terrible thought enters his mind that he realizes

140

MaladaptiveGlitch🔞 @maladaptiveglitch.bsky.social · 20/08/2026

While Bumblebee will fall into silent episodes of depression It'll be like hes shut down to the barest functions necessary to function on autopilot Silent with a far away stare as if stuck in old memories, going mostly nonverbal except for very short answers

140

MaladaptiveGlitch🔞 @maladaptiveglitch.bsky.social · 20/08/2026

While for the most part things are good, they both suffer some similar symptoms in very different ways Starscream will go through manic spirals of needing control and overwhelming confirmation from Bumblebee over nearly every little things and bursts of severe paranoia

140

MaladaptiveGlitch🔞 @maladaptiveglitch.bsky.social · 20/08/2026

#starbee (Angst, depression, dark thoughts) Postwar relationship with Bumblebee and Starscream is very much like an emotional Rollercoaster due to coming out of a million years long war

MaladaptiveGlitch🔞 @maladaptiveglitch.bsky.social · 20/08/2026

I'm calling him Atlas, just cause I like how it sounds and don't wanna get stuck thinking too hard about him

MaladaptiveGlitch🔞 @maladaptiveglitch.bsky.social · 20/08/2026

Sentinel may have tried to destroy, as it was a safe job requiring minimal contact with others, granted it added to the Orion comparisons much to their annoyance. They were also more grumpy when bothered, unlike Orion who greeted everyone with a smile and open arms

010

MaladaptiveGlitch🔞 @maladaptiveglitch.bsky.social · 20/08/2026

With Prowl and Jazz due to all 3 being some of the best bots to notice things well before others did and pick up in missing or hidden Intel. Though the bot had requested to work in the archives instead to help go through and restore any and all data

110

MaladaptiveGlitch🔞 @maladaptiveglitch.bsky.social · 20/08/2026

Even some of the bots who had cogs before all of this still looked down on some of the ex-miners, thus a low profile was still the safest. That didn't prevent them from developing hobbies and attempting to make new friends though. And due to their hyper vigilants, they were often paired to work

110

MaladaptiveGlitch🔞 @maladaptiveglitch.bsky.social · 20/08/2026

Reliable, but not enough to really be noticed. This remained the same after Sentinal's fall and cogs being granted to everyone as old habits died hard in many of the previous miners still held old social beliefs despite the new primes hard work to deconstruct that and rebuild iacon

110

MaladaptiveGlitch🔞 @maladaptiveglitch.bsky.social · 20/08/2026

If you did too little work, you were punished by everyone around you, not just the cogged supervisors. Did too well, and bots would either try taking advantage of you, or see you as competition and try sabotaging you. Thus they worked to stay in a middle ground of doing enough to be

MaladaptiveGlitch🔞 @maladaptiveglitch.bsky.social · 20/08/2026

#tfo #megpax #megoc Thinking on what to call this au and this ghost, but while I figure that out, wanted to dump some ideas about them. Theyre hyper vigilant and aware of what's going on around them. The mines were harsh both physically and socially

Hehe prowlbee and constructiprowl are both top ships I thought would be fun to combine

MaladaptiveGlitch🔞 @maladaptiveglitch.bsky.social · 18/08/2026

Anxiety despite his cool and confident act, which Bumblebee was very aware of. Regardless, he appreciated the effort, could see the seeker was taking this seriously and cared about seeker traditions. It warmed the bots spark, and made him fall a little more in live with Starscream each time

0131

MaladaptiveGlitch🔞 @maladaptiveglitch.bsky.social · 18/08/2026

He was Starscream after all, ruler by sparkright of Vos, the second jn command and rightful ruler of the decepticons! He could only be capable of the best! In reality, he wanted to give Bee the best, to prove himself to the yellow bug and every part of the ritual was done drenched in +

MaladaptiveGlitch🔞 @maladaptiveglitch.bsky.social · 18/08/2026

#starbee I think it would be adorable if seekers had courting rituals similar to birds. Most of the practice fell out and became more simplified as a way of asking one out, but when Starscream started courting Bumblebee, he took it dead serious +

1185

MaladaptiveGlitch🔞 @maladaptiveglitch.bsky.social · 18/08/2026

lul this coming from his own misconception about how bots act during their heats cause he can get pretty needy, not outright submissive, plus also believes in his own spike game way to much

080

MaladaptiveGlitch🔞 @maladaptiveglitch.bsky.social · 18/08/2026

I second this Seeing Blurr would lock himself in his room, pacing around, agitated and grumbling to himself till Bee barges in without so much as a knock as usual just to immediately be pinned to the wall and given a warning to leave Pops his panel in response instead

MaladaptiveGlitch🔞 @maladaptiveglitch.bsky.social · 17/08/2026

But to also get as much attention. It's a rocky start, but they find a balance that works for them and their new bondeds 8

0100

MaladaptiveGlitch🔞 @maladaptiveglitch.bsky.social · 17/08/2026

He comes to enjoy it after a while, not that he'll ever admit to it, they start extending the same behavior to Bumblebee, reveling under the praise and attention he gives freely, and find it adorable how Prowl will get jealous and put himself in the middle, not to seperate them from bee, 7

180

MaladaptiveGlitch🔞 @maladaptiveglitch.bsky.social · 17/08/2026

Surprisingly the cons and Bee easily find common ground and get along well, and soon find that their sparks start resonating with his as well, and not solely through Prowls bond with him They still tend to flock around Prowl and try showing off and spoiling him much to his annoyance, though 6

180

MaladaptiveGlitch🔞 @maladaptiveglitch.bsky.social · 17/08/2026

Everything is hectic at first wirh the constructicons falling over each other's peds trying to impress Prowl, and awkwardly Bumblebee as well after needing to be reminded a few times, and much to an exasperated Prowl, but they find rhythm in their new normal 5

180

MaladaptiveGlitch🔞 @maladaptiveglitch.bsky.social · 17/08/2026

So Prowl gives it a go He allows the constructicons court him under one condition Bumblebee isn't sidelined and equally involved It's a shock to both parties, but no surprise to Bee The cons accept regardless, just ecstatic that their potential bonded had agreed Thus the newfound chaos 4

180

MaladaptiveGlitch🔞 @maladaptiveglitch.bsky.social · 17/08/2026

Worth pursuing One doesn't typically turn away from a spark resonating with another, but Prowl fears how it would effect his connection with Bee, as well as awed that of all mechs, it's the consteucticons Bee promises nothing between them will change, and to listen to his spark 3

180

MaladaptiveGlitch🔞 @maladaptiveglitch.bsky.social · 17/08/2026

(Hazy on how to word this part or go about it) They start pursuing Prowl, claiming their sparks all resonate to him, and surely he feels it too, which he flat out shuts down and rejects their advances. But Bee can feel he's lying as a result of their connection, and thinks it might be 2

MaladaptiveGlitch🔞 @maladaptiveglitch.bsky.social · 17/08/2026

#prowlbee #constructiprowl #constructibee Alternative idea to my last post Prowl and Bumblebee are conjunxed well after the war, and life is good. Busy and chaotic for the duo running cybertron, but they're happy Then the consteuticons get thrown into the mix, adding more chaos to their lives 1

MaladaptiveGlitch🔞 @maladaptiveglitch.bsky.social · 17/08/2026

it's all for show Bumblee knows better then anyone that the tactician hasn't given up for a moment and is still plotting an escape for them. It's just one that will take time, and require the constructicons full trust. When that will be, he's not sure. But he knows they'll be free again one day end
