You vaguely outlined before in your world building for the cybugs that Praxian Enforcers are essentially the Soldier Ants of their colonies.

Because colony structures are fun to play with, would the Constructicons be your typical Worker Ants of the same colony?

This thought was brought to me by imagining the Constructicons wandering lost after their colony got destroyed only to find Three* Praxian Enforcers! What good luck! They’re saved!**

*One is fake and another is a child.

** Green saves them. I’m imagining Workers are flightless so she can just stick’em in an ant farm terrarium type thing

if we're using an analogy of prowl being an ant i imagine the constructicons would be more like... termites.

i can absolutely see something like that happening regardless though! however, Green wouldn't be able to keep them- shes got her hands plenty full already... luckily her neighbour Devon, who works in construction and demolition is willing to take them in.

i imagine they still keep coming back and sneaking into Greens house though. for a buncha flightless bugs they sure can get around.

Did you ever cover whether cybugs can swim? Because I have this image of them being able to swim pretty well, but enforcers being cats and mimics being dogs and Jeetle relaxing in the hot sink while Peetle is disgusted(TM) and Blue is standing at the edge, undecided, because 1) wet, but 2) Jazz, but 3) WET!!!! lol. Love these bugs so much!

HI IVE BEEN THINKING ABT THIS ASK FOR MONTHS. its never been established if they can swim but i think itd be really neat if they could inflate their tyres so they can float a lil bit!!! they're a bit big for surface tension to work how it does for smaller bugs, but i find the image extremely endearing. i figure jazz'd want to teach blue, so he might just grab him and float on out LMAO.

as for actual swimming... i think they wouldnt do well fully submerged, BUT! since their wings are made of stiffer stuff than irl bug wings, what if they could also use them to propel themselves...

Imagining Green coming home with a geode and the next day, both Blue and Prowl are munching on crystals, Jazz being on the sidelines with his little paperclip or smth.

nooooo it was a gift...

Your Structies are adorable. I am grateful you included Scrapper as well, he is neglected and discarded too often by this fandom.

And you draw him and Hook and Scav so cute like. Would love to just see more of the six of them. They are giving me cuteness aggression hehe

thank you!! they're a lot of fun to draw, and i agree! i specifically decided to include scrapper here because i think he needs more love!!!

they give me cuteness agression as well... but luckily for the structibugs, there's only a hard hat here today so they're safe. for now.

nothing to see here... !!

also, bonus horseshoe crab.

I like to imagine the Structibugs built a giant intricate network of hamster tunnels around the house to get around, and no matter how many times Devon tries to demolish it (like Devastator typically does), more just reappear the next day. There's tunnels in the kitchen, in the bathroom, going through the backyard, across doorways, etc. Devon is constantly hitting his head on them. They also constantly use these tunnels to sneak over to Prowl's house to visit!

YES !!!! YES!!!!!!!!! no notes thats really funny i love it dhfkckldksnfbdj,,

extremely endeared by the idea of him taking the tunnels down but they keep rebuilding... menaces, the lot of them.
