SOUL PUNK BABYYYYYYYY *vibrates*

I just rediscovered @peace-hunter ‘s baby prime au and gosh I love it so much!! I forgot how inspiring it was for me when I was diving into all kinds of AUs… honestly, so many AUs have inspired me with the creation of my own that it’s hard to keep track. But now that I’m looking back at this one… UGH!! It’s giving me ideas for the original prime Optimus au I have, despite the major differences between both AGHH

It’s definitely helped me figure out one part of the plot, actually. In the Baby Prime AU, the High Guard makes the choice to hide OP in plain sight. They get him to Iacon, they take his T-cog, etc… which is different than my AU. In the Original Prime AU, OP is forced to do that himself when his t-cog is damaged— but I always had questions about how he could have managed that by himself when he was injured enough that he was forced to leave the final battle. And considering other future plot points and world building that I want to put into this AU, I think a great answer would be that someone in the High Guard helped him.

I don’t want to spoil my ideas or the plot I have so far, but at the same time I don’t know if I’ll ever get to writing this story out. It’s been so long since I actually write a chaptered fic, I don’t know if I can anymore… BUT, whatever! I’ll do it, why not?

I think the specific member of the High Guard to help OP would be Shockwave. Taking inspiration from his IDW storyline, and specifically Empurata… he helps OP get to Iacon, he helps remove his cog, and helps OP hide… none of this OP will remember, the memory files are corrupted or simply locked because he doesn’t have a t-cog. But Shockwave knows where he is, knows that he helped save and hide the last Prime, and honestly there might have been a bit of Shockop going on *wink wink*

And Shockwave gets captured by Sentinel at some point, who tries to get information about Optimus’ whereabouts, but it doesn’t work. Shockwave loves Optimus too much to give up his location… However, it does make it clear that Shockwave does know something. He’s just too loyal to say anything… and well, he gets empurata’d. He comes out of that experience incredibly different, obviously.

Overall, this idea gives me a definitive reason why Shockwave’s story comes to be, and makes OP’s journey to Iacon far more plausible. It’s got me thinking of so many ideas and how heart wrenching it would be…

Imagine realizing the only way to save the one you love, to protect them, is to let them go 🥺

Just wanted to share that my mental health is not at all appreciating the ‘merry Christmas, please don’t call’ x marauders edits. I couldn’t handle ‘happy Xmas (war is over)’ back in 2019 who told you this was a good idea???????

I'm honestly slightly shocked that no one has thought to do the T-R-E-A-T meme with Arthur.

Like, y'all, it's a golden opportunity!!!
