“‘Till all are one.” yeah, right.

sigh love angst roddy🥀

I do deeply apologise for not posting often, I’m trying to get back with my life lol. Ohh also Blokees recently released both hot rod and rodimus prime design in their blind box, but both designs are in the mini collection- how cutee. Here’s smol roddy too <3 Have a good day/night !

[dystopiansewerrat]

Who is bees mentor? Is that papa prime?

It’s wheeljack, ironhide, and jetfire! Ironhide is more in the mentor role, but wheeljack and jetfire are the nagging mechanics, so the roles sometimes get blurry (I haven’t finished the starscream intro yet I’m so sorry! but I want to include jetfire in bee team so bad, mainly because I want bee and starscream to have another reason to argue more in this au 😭)

I have been meaning to post this since last week but life beat me up so much lately- I deeply sorry for answering this very late and for the messy sketchh

[dystopiansewerrat]

select your rider/driver!

I deeply apologize for being inactive for a while. Life got a little busy and I have been experiencing a very bad art block, to the point picking up my pen feels so weird. I apologize if I haven’t responded any text or questions, please feel free to reach me out again since my tumblr been glitching:(

I also have been learning pixel art. It’s so fun yet so difficult (To all pixel artists I really admire you<3). I’m very sorry for suddenly posting more of the silly motorsport au. It’s not an actual game, but I had so muchhh fun with making this. I would love to add more the f1 au character but I don’t think the file would support it. Here’s the still image

[dystopiansewerrat]

meeting halfway hmmMMmM?????

drift probably won’t let that slide for a long time

full version and sketchy version bcs artblock don’t bring me joy, but dratchet do<3

If you saw my ratchet art from last month, I used the same sketch for both that and this, is that okay? I originally sketched it for this one but got distracted by his lovely back and ended up finishing the other one first… oh ratchet what a lovely menace you are<3

[dystopiansewerrat]

Once again, I love your motorsport au It’s so fun !!! So, I wanted to ask more about Arcee, (since you’ve been getting quite a few asks about Bumblebee-rodimus-optimus family dynamic). Just wanted to switch it up a bit with the asks, if you don’t mind ^_^

Hii thank you so muchhh!! I lovee getting all the questions for the au and I can’t appreciate it enough<33

Arcee my beloved<33 she is the risky subject on the riders community because she is the most dedicated yet dangerous rider. She and her team love to explore the limitations of the sport, but that’s what makes her team shine inside and outside the motogp. She tried many times to convince her biggest inspiration, a retired history-making rider, to stay in the game and mentor her team. Unfortunately she always got rejected, but it seems like she’s not going to stop convincing her hero anytime soon! Also she’s in a relationship with a lovely pilot<3

(sorry for the tag but credit to @minniethemoocherda for the arcee-elita dynamic ideas!)

[dystopiansewerrat]

Was rod ever stressed out about bee getting into f1? Like as designated older brother seeing some of those crashes they have must be nasty. Has bee ever had a bad accident?

Ohh he did not take it well from the beginning. Especially when bee was doing practice kart behind roddy’s back and ended up in the hospital. He often spying the race too but always ended with the police. I think he once crashed out and tries to stop a kart race, and got a temporary restraining order…

As time goes, he began to accept that his brother had talent in different sports than he did. Still, he felt bitter about all the injuries bee had suffered.

[dystopiansewerrat]

your MotoGP au Bee is so cool but did Bee also lose his voice? Is that why he wears a mask?

He got a big accident on a practice race when he was 15. He barely can speak for months. Now he has healed, but kind of used to the silence.

Now, he wear mask to not get recognize when he is out, (as if that would work- it never did). But he wears it so muchh he is now doing commercial for a mask brand lol (they also did a little collab and have a little bee imprinted on the mask

[dystopiansewerrat]

I know you said Bee's sponsor was face masks, but I couldn't help but notice that Bee had the Red Bull logo on his racing suit.

Was he also abandoned at a gas station like Maxx Verstappen?

By the way I love your art

Hi! sorry for the very late answer askskks I fell down the stairs lol probably not relevant to the question but I think Max’s little inner child cursed me-

I hope you're talking about max’s dad gas station incident because that's concerning but also ironically iconic askskskk I love to imagine bee went through the same thing(not the ignorance for a week, op would never). But op probably panicking and immediately call roddy, and not even 10 minutes, roddy is there to pick up bee… and to question him all the details(he wants to piss op like that too).

[minniethemoocherda]

@dystopiansewerrat Hi!!! Sorry I thought it would be easier to organise these in a seperate post instead of derailing your own post 😅. I am sorry in advance! I will warn you that you would regret asking me about any ideas I had because one of my favourite things is trying to fit as many characters into an au as I can 😅

Please feel free to completely ignore everything I said! I completely understand if you're not a fan of any ships or ideas I mention. It is your au!!!! You are the artist!! These are just my rambling string of consciousness 😅

Anyway ideas based on @dystopiansewerrat Motor Sport Transformers AU!

Everyone go check it out!! Their art and ideas are amazing!!! Xxxxxxx

OG Era

Optimus' team includes of his oldest friend and head mechanic Ratchet and his bodyguard/eng specialist Ironhide.

Jazz is a fellow racer who has known OP since they were teenagers. He might not have won as many races as OP but he's very popular thanks to his style and that a video of him singing went viral! He is now a commentator.

Mirage wanted to prove that his skills as a racer came from talent and not his money. But after he won his first race, he realised that he hated being in the spotlight. He'd made freinds with Jazz during their first year together and joined his team instead. He spends most of his time working behind the scenes, getting sponsors and running PR. He still works behind the scenes and sponsors young up and coming races who due to their backgrounds would struggle getting sponsors from bigger brands. He also married Jazz's mechanic Hound.

Elita-One made history to have the first all female team, including her specialist Chromia. There were rumours that she had a romance with Optimus (amongst all the other romantic rumours surrounding Optimus)

Elita and Optimus set up their friends Ironhide and Chromia. The pair have been together ever since.

Prowl is the star racer for the Paxian team. His manager was Barricade who was an arsehole and his mechanic was Tarantulas who would experiment without telling him on his vehicle. Hkm and Prowl have a short lived relationship. Prowls younger brother Smokescreen was the only non-toxic influence on his team. Back in the day Prowl had a bit of a rivalry with Jazz but now they do the commentary together as he gives dry facts and serious analysis against Jazz's less serious persona. Rumours speculated about a romance between them since they were both racers and carried on to them both being commentators. The rumours turned out to eventually be right.

Ultra Magnus was head of the Wreckers team. Kups there too with Wheeljack as the mechanic and Bulkhead was there too maybe as the racer. Breakdown used to be on the team too until he fell head over heels for Knockout, the racer for the Velociteon team. Maybe they ended up saving each other at times if Breakdown got injured so Knockout helped to patch him up then another time Breakdown physically got Knockout to safety after a crash idk. Anyway now Breakdown is on the Velocitron team and now there is a lot of drama between them and The Wreckers.

Grimlock is the star racer for the Dinobot team who are always getting into trouble.

Onslaught is the star racer for The Combaticons. He built the team hismelf and is very proud of that. He is unaware that his teammate Blast-Off is in love with him.

Cyclonus get annoyed having to keep correcting people who assume he's part of the Deception team just because his uniform is purple.

Next Gen Era

Arcee saw Elita as a kid which inspired her to become a racer. She is now living the dream as Elita is her mentor and Chromia her mechanic.

I love Cheetor's friendship with Bumblebee and Hot Rod in Cyberverse so I could imagine them to be the same generation here! He's the racer for the Maximals with his Beast Wars crew as his team.

Springer is the new star racer for the Wreckers. Kup is still there as his mentor even though he should've retired by now. Springer is well liked by the public so he tries to hide the fact that disgraced former mechanic Tarantulas is his parent. Or maybe Springer himself doesn't even know they're related until some reporter reveals it. He could also have a complicated relationship with his other parents Prowl if you wanted to include that.

Sideswipe and Sunstreaker grew up on the streets and in and out of foster homes, getting into trouble by stealing car parts and partaking in illegal drag races. Sideswipe is the star racer sponsored by Lambourgini whilst Sunstreaker does most of the behind the scenes stuff, including design and painting which is his favourite part. Maybe Ironhide is the twins mentor now and was able to whip them into shape.

Bluestreak is Prowl's youngest brother who is now the star racer of the Praxus team. He wanted to live up to his older brother's name. And he was a very fast and precise racer. But in the end decided he'd rather work behind the scenes so he joined Sideswipe's team as a strategist. He was worried Prowl would be disappointed but Prowl couldn't be more proud that he's doing what he wants with his life and for leaving the toxic praxus team. Bluestreak and Sunstreaker start dating at some point.

Breakdown and Knockout love their son Wildbreak very much! But worry about the team he joined the Stunticons being a bad influence on him.

After Onslaught got injured his team mate Vortex took over as head racer. He's crazy! And enjoys flirting with First Aid much to Ratchet's ire.

Non racers:

Red Alert is head of security for the races and Inferno was a firefighter who was working on the on site team in case of emergency which was how they met and are now happily married.

Swindle runs an unofficial betting ring within the racers and their teams since they can't place legal bets.

Smokescreen worked for the Praxian team with both his brothers but then developed a gambling problem. He's left the industry and getting help now though. His brother's are proud of him and he's proud of them.

Strongarm works security at the races. She is often seen arguing with Sideswipe about him not following safety rules. After they both had one too many drinks at a party, Sunstreaker catches them making out in a closet.

Lockdown is the reporter that no body likes becasue he always managed to dig dirt onto people.

Devcon is the reporter people like more because he's fair and not an attention seeking asehole

[dystopiansewerrat]

I’m gonna cry I swear I AM IN LOVE WITH THISSS WHATTTTTT ????? the way you included so many characters is so thoughtful and I’m loving how it ties together in the unexpected way!!! I’m really thankful for all of the suggestions and I definitely will spam the details in the comment section<3333 Once again thank you very muchhh for all the fun ideas and brainstorms!!! I’m so excited<33

[dystopiansewerrat]

F1 racer bee is so cute, he’s just a little guy who likes to go real fast. I’m on my hands and knees begging for more of him please…

Asksksk he is just a fast bug that loves watching other bugs racing!🏁

sorry for the sketchier one, but here’s bee<3

[minniethemoocherda]

Awww!! I love your human Bee design!! He's so cute!!

Does he wear a mask because he injured his voice at some point? Or is it just for style??

[dystopiansewerrat]

He did get into a big accident one time during a practice race and almost lost his vocal cord! He could barely speak for months. He’s healed now, but kind of used to the silence.

He mostly wore the mask to hide from the public eyes, but he wore it so muchh he ended up getting a brand deal with a mask company, lol. Luckiest unlucky<3

[dystopiansewerrat]

Omg just became observed with your motorsport au!! Your art is gorgeous!! And your human designs for everyone is amazing!! One of my favourite things about aus is seeing how everyone fits into it! And I think Mags and Megs being Hot Rod's mentors that he enjoys driving crazy fits so well! And so does Ratchst being Drifts mechanic that's so cute! You said Hot Rod, Bumblebee and Optimus are all related which I love! How are they related exactly? Do you have any other backstory and connections you'd like to share?? I just love this au and want to learn more about it!! Xxxxxxx

I cannot explain how much grateful I am for people interested to this. I never expected anyone to feel invested in it, and it truly means a lot to me. Thank you for being so kind and invested in this<33 this truly keeps me going<3

I like the idea of Bee and Rod being adoptive brothers because of a big decision Optimus made earlier. He was at the top of his career, then took a hiatus due to an injury, and suddenly dropped the news that he was expanding his family, casually. It’s kind of a mystery, really, since he’s not even married… is he?

I love the realization I had they are having now about how their pasts are actually connected because of Op!

Meanwhile Op is probably just at home, trying to catch up with everything…

[minniethemoocherda]

AHHHHH!!! Your art is so cute!! Love all of their faces of realisation!! And awww Optimus changing his wallpaper every time a different person he cares about wins!!

Hot Rod and Bumblebee being adopted brothers is so cute!! I can imagine them as kids hanging out at the race courses and causing everyone trouble! Even though to Optimus they will always be his little angels! Although I imagine growing up in the spot light would have it's own issues! Would love to learn more about them all being a family!

Are there any other connections like adopted kids or romances or rivals or managers between any of the other characters in your au???

And thank you so much for answering my ask!!! Xxxxxxx

[dystopiansewerrat]

Asksksks sorry for the late response! But I should be the one to thank you for your ask!<3 Thank you very muchhhh for your kindness and support really. I'm so sorry I'm very at words but I can't explain how much grateful I am for your interest in this au <3333

They probably have a chaotic household aksksk still a functioning family but also a messy ones! A lot of sweat and tears, but also a lot of family dinner times. I love to imagine that they are mostly bonding together over their food preferences! I think that’s the only topic the boys wouldn’t have any arguments with each other<33 I think there will be a lot more about the team mechanics and other roles too(and the drivers!). Probably introduction for the purple rival contributor that megs used to lead👀(and probably some romances👀🫶). And I'm very open for suggestions <333 so if you have any ideas or suggestions I'm all ears!<33333
