my transformers oc she's a food truck named hotpot
hotpot used to be an ambulance and was the medic for her autobot squadron, who unfortunately were shot out of orbit by decepticons above an alien planet. everyone except hotpot was killed and hotpot herself was presumed dead and thus abandoned on this very distant alien planet for several thousand years. after fixing herself and realising she wasn't getting off this planet any time soon, hotpot did some exploring and realised she had landed nearby a major population centre - and not only were the native biological population friendly enough to an erstwhile soldier in the cybertronian civil war, they also introduced hotpot to her new obsession: organic cuisine.
transformers by nature can't eat or process organic food, nor do they really want to (most of them think it's pretty gross). but hotpot had been isolated for a couple hundred years by the time she got in contact so she had an open mind for pretty much anything to keep her entertained. she was SO entertained that she actually decided to... operate on herself to give herself the top half of an extremely realistic digestive system. mostly the mouth part (functioning tastebuds and the like, not so much the waste evacuation part - it just gets incinerated LOL).
from that moment, hotpot fell in LOVE with flavour and cooking and the incredibly diverse world of FOOD!!!! she even rebuilt herself a little into a food truck and changed her name to suit (it used to be hotspot) (she isn't..... super creative) and just for good measure transed her gender as well.
when the war ended, hotpot rejoiced at the opportunity to travel the universe freely and start working on her food blog! unfortunately, she was still stuck on this planet with no real way of getting off.
...until a ship piloted by a little green thing and his quiet friend showed up at her doorstep :^)
she's very talkative and enthusiastic but not very in tune with actual communication, mostly because she's spent a long time only talking to herself. hates silence! loves food! loves making people smile, wishes more cybertronians would be open to the idea of eating different kinds of food. doesn't really care that most people think she's weird. gets easily attached to people and isn't very good at telling when someone has bad intentions. still a very talented medico, but wants to focus on her cooking career now that the demand for wartime doctors is mostly over. the chef hat is made of metal and it's magnetic & the little cape on her back is the canopy that goes over the serving window of her alt mode
i have a lot of fun drawing objects so feel free to send requests 🫶🏻 they don't have to be from one either, i've watched a mildly concerning amount of shows so there's a good chance i've seen Your Favourite Object Show before

AWWWW this made me smile so much 🥹🥹 she's close to being my favourite character and it makes me bonkers crazy when she gets left out of stuff so i get you brother
no unfortunately not 😔 we keep meaning to set it up but the organisation as well as the fact that shipping to anywhere but australia would be expensive as hell is keeping it in the Wouldn't It Be Cool stage... maybe ... maybe one day
as you can probably tell, i've thought a lot about what post-canon one would look like in my vision... i've said before that i have issues with straightforward fix-its, and i do genuinely love the tragic open-ended conclusion that the series has, but i... am not immune to playing with characters like dolls LOL
here's some writeups about where everyone is at mentally in these pictures. please please please PLEEEASE feel free to ask me more about this cuz i love talking about my beautiful mind palace
charlotte: somehow the most optimistic person in here, mostly out of necessity. when she died, she saw parker leading her out of a cave as her waiting room and was about to take his hand when airy respawned her, so she has a brief moment of bonding with bryce when he talks about the waiting room and seeing stella. with the knowledge that there is potentially a way to get out (bryce and liam being the proof) and the fear of rotting away again she is by far the most actively motivated to help liam figure out the computer. a lot of her days are spent talking to liam over the mic and writing out the code in the dirt so she can try to understand it. she still has to push against her natural misanthropy (and often shouts at liam or bryce for being fucking stupid and useless) but both working on the code and helping amelia give her something concrete to focus on outside herself. she wants to get home so she can make amends with her friends. charlotte is scared of dying! she's really genuinely horribly scared of dying and has awful vivid nightmares about rotting away. she often pushes amelia into talking about her life which causes some tension, but it's because she really hates seeing amelia lose herself like that - a metaphorical rotting away of the self.
subway seat & atom: not on the same level of pure existential depression as the batch 1 contestants, but they both feel the hopeless mood pretty harshly regardless. subway feels very lonely as the only hidden object still 'awake', and likes to carry whippy creamy around rather than just leave him sitting on the ground constantly. tray is too big and unwieldy for him to do that with, but he 'hangs out' with her anyway, talking to her and whippy creamy in the hopes that it'll get them to want to wake up again. atom doesn't talk much, but he still carries his piece of grass. he's definitely the person who's the least affected by the prospect of being stuck on the plane forever, since he… doesn't really perceive existence in the same way as everyone else? he's an atom. but his time in the competition definitely made him view everyone else as friends, and he feels even more powerless than usual in the face of this incomprehensibly difficult problem.
amelia: falls into total hopelessness when bryce rejoins, basically seeing it as the final sign that they're never going home. still calls everyone their competition names (she actually gets into a big fight with bryce about it lol). she gets really clingy and dependent on bryce when he first comes back but it crashes and burns pretty quickly when, during an argument, bryce tells her how much he wishes he could just go back and never have let liam in and forgot about everything… which really sucks for amelia to hear, given that she's part of that everything. after that, with bryce isolating himself, she's kind of reliant on charlotte to keep her going. she blames liam for airy dying and secretly kind of thinks he killed him but just isn't telling them… she also doesn't really believe there's any way of getting out and is just kind of waiting around to die of, like, old age i guess. after how long she's been here, amelia is convinced that she has nothing to even go back to and frequently forgets details about her life. regularly cries and hates being alone. the shift markings on the side of the water tub have changed from being a way to keep track of time and stay sane to a horrible reminder of how long they've been here and how much longer of an eternity they have before them.
bryce: hates himself and liam and airy and the plane and his entire stupid fucking life. bryce is really, really fucking pissed off at liam for losing the notes and letting texty die and every other mistake he's made, and isn't shy about telling him that. as well as being angry, he's also incredibly miserable, because he was finally starting to turn his life around (he quit drinking after the plane) and now it's all for nothing - and even worse, those 7 months he spent getting better were 7 months he did nothing to help the rest of them, especially amelia. he's horribly guilty about that, and that he didn't tell amelia about the fake votes before he was eliminated… but finds it easier to just let liam take the heat for that one at first. after he fights with amelia about it he becomes a bit of a hermit, hanging out by himself next to the plug, and never responds when liam tries to talk. contemplates suicide regularly but pretty much the only option is drowning himself, and the idea of that still scares him more than staying like this forever. would kill for a beer.
liam: tortured by horrible guilt every day over a million different things. these include getting bryce pulled back into this (plus delayed guilt over getting him for real killed), letting texty die and not saying anything about the charger, not telling amelia that everything was fake, knowing that charlotte is going to die if he doesn't get really smart really fast… he's frequently gripped by fits of rage where he almost smashes the computer and has to hobble around outside with the axe for a while to blow off steam. he has really bad nightmares and dissociative episodes, made worse by the isolation and spending hours in a dark cave. liam really wants to fix things with everyone but genuinely has no idea how to start that conversation. he assumes airy killed himself (and views it as an unforgiveably cowardly move) and directs a lot of resentment towards him. he has a lot of things he wants to say, especially to bryce, but the fact that he cant talk to anybody one on one makes things difficult. spends a lot of time just reading through the code, too afraid to actually make any changes in case everyone explodes, but talking it through with charlotte at least makes him feel like he's doing something. more than he would like to admit, liam catches himself staring at the plane as if it's a simulation or a livestream.
