A rather random TFP Humanformers AU HC/lore
Hello! So given the fact I have been unable to get my TFP humanformers AU out of my head here’s a list of head cannons and lore in no specific order!!
1- when Starscream was first brought onto the Decepticon. He was nothing more then a frightened ‘15’ year old Sparkling and was taken in by Knockouts carrier who to this day acts like his mother and to him very much is.
2- the Humanformers can still transform into their true forms. And many of them prefer to be in their Robot forms. outside of a handful like. Knockout, Breakdown, Bumblebee
3- while in human form Starscream often forgets his wings are not there. His back and shoulders are extremely sensitive in this form.
4- Knockout is in fact 5 years old then Starscream and Is technically one of the older members of the Cons only being out done by Megatron who is roughly 60 or so. And Soundwave who is in his mid 50s
5- soundwave behind closed doors is a family Mech. He and his Conjunx Endura Melexis. - who is the con’s top spy- have twin boys Named Rumble & Frenzy who have been mostly sheltered from the War that destroyed their home planet. Only a few very high ranking members of the con’s know this little secret. But it is not uncommon to occasionally see soundwave in his very famous ‘dad’ shorts. Especially during the summer months
6- the bots are in fact much much older than they look. But their human forms do reflect their age in a way
The con’s Autobot rat- 28
7- Starscream is a Bastard. His bio carrier a Highborn Vossen Femme had him Out of especially Vossen Wedlock. She never told him who is his Sire and given the fact she died shortly after the war began He has resided himself to never known. This is an extremely touchie subject to him and does not like to talk about it.
8- Breakdown is a Trans Man. Both Knockout and Starscream have known him since before his transition.
9- speaking of Breakdown he and Starscream are secretly very good friends. And given the fact he is his Adopted Brothers Conjunx he often goes a bit out of his way to make sure Both are safe. Or as safe as they can be
10- Megatron especially struggles with Bipolar Disorder which is only made about 100x worse due to his use of Dark Energon. Though he rarely shows it he is often scared of himself and his rage which he has long since lost control of.
11- Megatron and Starscream share a very strange dynamic. There was a time when Starscream was in his late teens when Megatron first took him under his wing that the pair were extremely close. But after the Death of Starscream’s Lover Skyfire by the hands of Cliffjumper their relationship violently fell apart. Megatron dose still have a rather large soft spot for Starscream and lets him get away with just about anything. As long as it’s not lying. Or killing him.
12- airachnid and Starscream dated for a very brief period of time before Megatron Disappeared into space for Ten years. Is was an extremely toxic relationship which ended up mildly traumatized Starscream. He has been single for close to 15 years by choice at the Start of the fic.
13- Breakdown and Knockout have been together since before Breakdown transition. They pair had been the best of friends for years When Knockout realized he was in love with him. He orchestrated their first date through what remained of Tarn and they found one working Holo film which them spend hours trying to figure out how to work.
14- Soundwave DEEPLY ENJOYS HUMAN INTERNET CULTURE. From memes to messages boards his true find something almost therapeutic in it. He is also known to send rather questionable videos to the other Cons just for his own enjoyment.
15- to slow take over earth the Cons have created a shell company called deckaon. The name is the brain child of Megatron and a very drunk Soundwave. Starscream is very much in control of the whole Façade and acts as the public CEO for the company. As both he and Soundwave agreed Megatron would in fact fuck it up and blow their cover.
If anyone has actually taken the time to read all this fucking THANK YOU! I am currently writing chapter ten of the Fic and it simply just lives in my head completely rent free lol I tried to keep this spoiler free for the most part!!
