PLEASE GIVE ME LIVE HARDTOP REACTION TO SWINDBEE AND MY LIF E IZ YOUTRSS

“This bit isn’t funny anymore, bro”

Hardtop finds out about the fake dating later on, unfortunately it’s AFTER Swindle stops charging Bee for his services LOL

[transingthoseformers]

How many pink male Transformers are there? Only one i know of is G1 IDW Misfire (and he rocks it)

Isn't Spinister hot pink/purple/blue??

I could've sworn that at least one iteration of Hot Rod had dark pink on him, but I can't find it

To me TFA Starscream is pink

"oh he's magenta" magenta is literally a shade of pink.

Hardtop also comes to mind as he has pink accents right?

Some of Shockwave's iterations have pink aspects (usually his tit window) too iicr?

There's undoubtedly others but I can't think of them right now 💖

Alright, so headcanons for my favorite tfe character (Swindle, Arcee, Bumblebee and breakdown)

Hardtop might be included since he's kinda of a main character in one of my au's or two

Contractly on what people think, Swindle and hardtop Don't drink at all. They are a loser who might have scammed people and probably harm/kill bots but they just don't drink (they are healthy too!) They will go to party's just to chat or play cybertronians version of chess. Mind you they drink to refuel, not to get drunk and sober.

Speaking of which, arcee is the biggest drinker out of all of them. Her alcohol tolerance is very high and would not get drunk so she beats everyone (Yes, even Megatron) in a drinking contest (she probably beats the prime's too)

Oh yea, bumblebee does yoga. He's a loser who needs to do loser things, so he does yoga with Dorothy sometimes

He also writes diary's (HES A LOSERBEE) Mo taught Bee how to write diary's so now he's addicted to writing his life out

Ahem, breakdown... He's also a loser so he does parkour. Other than racing all day,he sometimes do parkour to relax (he broke a wall one time and pretend nothing happened)

Arcee likes going stargazing and cloud gazing but doesn't do it often (poor femme)

Swindle and Hardtop has the HEALTHIEST brother relationship ever. I mean, does swindle try to break out hardtop for nothing? Sure they are stupid losers who deserves to be beaten up with bricks pathetically and loveingly, but at least they have a best relationship than most siblings dynamic

Hmmmm, breakdown doesn't know how to play chess. Why? Cus I think it's funny to see him not able to play chess and rages

Okay few more :D (Edit)

Swindle.... he's ironic but very caring at least (I don't need to get into that part)

Now how to say this.... Arcee hacks, she actually used to be a hacker:D

Since he's a loser, bumblebee actually likes nitting (BEAT HIM UP NOW)

Hardtop is a top player at chess, no one can beat him (aside swindle, he just go easy on him)

I'm such a loser but breakdown is a therapist to EVERYONE (but he needs one himself)

Arcee is a bit zesty but doesn't show (loser lmao)

They are all losers your Honor /pos

More coming soon cus exam is kill my ahh

(Maybe malto bots or the rest but not alot cus I'm doing it for my favorite character)

Swindle told me how escaped Prime and Elita with only a scratch (he didn’t mention he lost a brother). Swindle always brings me stuff as a ‘apology gift’ for trying to kill me and almost eating my older sister Mo.

He says he’s “really sorry” and how “it won’t happen ever again”. I want to believe him, I really do! But mom and dad is still mad about my sister almost dying.

But Mo forgave him already, so what’s the problem?

Breakdown: Why are you guys so shocked that I'm with Bee?

Ermmm...

Isn't it against that Decepticons cant be with an autobot?

Planes, Trains, and Autobots

Summary Fic part 1

[NEXT]

Another fic idea that there's a decent chance I wont have the time or energy to write. This time for Earthspark featuring Breakdown. Figure I'll do what I tried out awihle ago with a Pokemon fic idea I knew I wouldn't have time to write and write very very brief summaries of how I see the series of events playing out.

Kinda like a heavily abridged summarized fanfic with some stuff I cant figure out or have no ideas for yet skipped over in the interest of just getting the idea out.

Think I'll call it a Summary Fic or whatever.

(Probably going to do this in parts so might as well go ahead and put the necessary pits for a link here)

Takes place after the end of the first season during a rather delicate period between the Autobots, Decepticons, and darn well near everyone for that matter.

G.H.O.S.T. is gone and all their decepticon prisoners freed, and while there are certainly Decepticons who aren't going to let their necessary saving of the world stop their ambitions, they're hiding out atm. Regrouping, gaining resources, and figuring out what to do next.

During this tentative period; Bumblebee and co (whoever is involved in "co" is a work in progress) visit the now abandoned GHOST base in an attempt to potentially gain some information on whatever else GHOST may have been up to as well as retrieving potentially damaging information about Cybertronians.

While there the group is shocked to encounter Swindle, the still armless Hardtop, and Breakdown of all bots picking through the remains of the base. A fight breaks out between the Con bros (my special name for Swindle and Hardtop) and Bumblebees gang before Breakdown breaks up the fight and explains that hes helping Swindle and Hardtop pick through the remains to find parts to build Hardtop a new arm. They "are NOT there to pick fights!" (directed at the bros).

He asks Bumblebee why he is there and, Bumblebee rather carefully tells him about the data recovery mission. Breakdown offers the Cons aid on the mission as recovering the data could benefit him and the rest of Decepticons (former and otherwise) just as much as the Autobots. Swindle and Hardtop try to argue but Breakdown pretty quickly quiets them down, reminding them of an unexplained "deal" that they struck that meant they had to help Breakdown out.

For various reasons (that I can't explain because the magic wand of plot contrivance hasnt produced anything et) Bumblebee accepts against his better judgement (actually its probably because the base still poses dangers. rogue automatic security measures and all that), but makes it clear to Breakdown that anything the Con Bros get up to is Breakdowns responsibility and that he won't hesitate to strike back if they pull anything. Breakdown agrees to the terms and the groups heads into the base.

After some fun actiony stuff featuring the teamed up groups getting past security, they eventually make it to the core server where all the memory storage is. Hashtag, or Nightshade (becuase the Terrans should be there. They're the main characters darn it) manage to access the information and find that it contains, amongst a lot of other things, a complete list of all the known Cybertronians on earth. Both Autobot AND Decepticon. And what GHOST knew about their abilities, whereabouts, status post war etc.

This is, needless to say, kind of a big deal.

Theres a bit of a scuffle as Breakdown and the Con Bros and Bumblebees team have a disagreement of what to do with the information. Bumblebee doesnt trust Swindle and Hardtop at all, so Breakdown asks that he be allowed to see the information without the two Con Bros present. Bumblebee admits that while he WANTS to trust Breakdown, the fact that he's still technically a Decepticon makes it impossible for him to just handover incriminating information about the autobots who might still be in hiding. Breakdown argues he could say the same thing.

Eventually the two agree that Breakdown will be allowed to come and see the information, but only if he comes alone. No Con Bros or anyone else. At a time and place Bumblebee specifies. With both Optimus AND Megatron present.

Breakdown isn't thrilled at the idea of being so disadvantaged, and makes an attempt at appealing to his and Bumblebees old friendship. In the end though, he accepts the conditions. Which surprises Bumblebee prompting him to ask Breakdown why he wants to see the information so badly. Breakdown vaguely answers that there are certain Cons he knew during the war whose fate he'd like to know, and leaves with the Con Bros.

Once out of earshot the Con Bros make their displeasure with Breakdowns decision known and threaten to relegate on their deal. Breakdown becomes a lot more intimidating and makes it clear that they're perfectly free to leave and can even take the parts they found with them. Of course that'd mean they'd be left constructing a new arm compatible with Hardtops Cybertronian body and figuring out how to safely attach it without frying Hardtops circuits. Meanwhile he, Breakdown, would have no issue at all going to his old pal Bumblebee and making a new deal with him and the Autobots to get what HE wants. He'd even have information about Swindle and Hardtop to buy admission into the Autobots.

In his own mind Breakdown knows such information is flimsy and wouldnt be enough to get him into the Autobot ranks. But its enough to scare the Con Bros into compliance.

With them placated Breakdown drops the intimidating air a bit and reassures them that he's fully intending to keep up his end of their bargain by finding them an expert who can reattach a new arm for Hardtop. All they have to do is continue giving him a hand when he needs it.

With that they all leave the base with Hardtop asking Swindle under his breath if he thinks Breakdown actually knows such a person, and Swindle answers that even if he doesn't and hes just leading them on they have the advantage over Breakdown in terms of numbers. At bare minimum they'll follow his lead long enough to get all the parts they need and can always ditch him if they get tired of the 'partnership'.

End of segment.

Spoilers!

BREAKDOWN🥺

[luciolefire]

(Earthspark spoilers under cut)

From the leaked synopsis post on @transformers-earthspark:

Waaaait. No. Nononono-

SWINDLE 🥺😢😭

I assumed Hardtop would just be hiding and waiting to attack, but nope... Swindle's not lying... he really is missing as of now.

Aaagh, I really hope he doesn't end up like poor Breakdown in TFP. For him it was an optic, for Swindle an arm...
