finished au crosshairs art & talking about the stranded au
continuing from this post! want to start reading? here!
no text! finally, he's all colored and pretty!
anyway, i know this idea is a bit niche and weird but iāll talk about it here:
the fuck is this idea, mal!?
you donāt have to shout :(
but in summary: the stranded crosshairs au takes place after an alternate timeline in age of extinction (2014) where lockdown + cemetery wind was successful in nerfing almost all decepticons and autobots on earth.
lockdown does not get defeated and humans are still assholes, yippie!
crosshairs, being crosshairs, nopes the fuck out when optimus prime gets captured and executedā and drift comes with, because literally everyone else is deadā¦ including the yeagers :( iām sorry, but the government would kill them all.
the two are on the run in space for a couple months or years, but they get inevitably captured by lockdown andā oop! thatās all iāll say about that.
this incident ends up with crosshairsā spark being transported via a tear in the well of allsparks and he wakes up in the rid 2015 universe!
ohh okay okay.. but what about crosshairs himself?
crosshairs, in the live action movies, is a fucking jerkwad arse lmao and i know it.
due to story reasons, his behavior is mellowed out and heās not as obnoxious (we still need rid15 sideswipe to be that #1 nuisance) or violent.
he hung out with drift for years alone in the middle of space, he picked up a few things!
well, not as violent towards other bots i mean. after cemetery wind back in his own world, he is distrusting of humans to a lethal degree (rip danny and russell) and hates being touched.
i wont get into too many specifics, but just know heās a tired, blunt bastard that just wants to sleep all day (itās the depression and chronic attachment issues).
he starts off alone in the story but gets picked up into the bee team (against his will).
iām happy to answer any questions about anything in this au (characters, relationships, story, etc) via the ask box. i like answering questions <3 other comments and concerns are also not minded :)
also! design wiseā because i love designing things and talking about design choicesā below is how iād imagine the parachutes to work. i wanted to keep the paratrooper aspect of his original character since i liked how unique it was!
i hope it makes sense, because it was funny to draw.
i had fun drawing that, itās silly.
and thatās all i got for now! here is my current poster for this auā in color and black/white! since iām planning on it being a little comic thing with some writing (maybe).
