TRANSFORMERS EARTHSPARK : THE LEGACY AU HEADCANONS
to compensate for not posting anything or maybe idk.i almost never post HELP. all i do is reblog. creds to @everfeeldigitaltm for the dividers
Mo — Mo is a genius (or, nearly) but she has that memory loss (deciding between short term or long term still) so its why she doesn't grasp concepts too quickly.
— She is one of the few in the Prime Team who actually doesn't like training. She's up for the challenge half the time but only if her brother or Juli joins along (which is very rare)
Robby — Gone completely OBLIVIOUS to every hint Izzy drops. Everyone else in the group can sense the weirdness, her constant tardiness, mismatched memory, and constant 'growth spurts' (from changing between forms) and Robby was just "oh yeah shes so pretty" for a good while.
— Depression hit him hard after the breakup, but not in the sulking way like it was in the show. More of the "i cant feel emotions and im still in denial" stage rather than just reminiscing and accepting just yet. Also a big reason as to why,
— This boy is an IDIOT, telling his best friend he wants to be by her side forever a few goddamn months after his own breakup. He's desperate for that love in any way, but at the same time he's demiromantic, so it's a little hard. For all you Robby haters, yes Robby will still get slimed. All the time. By his friends.
Nightshade — Gets a little bit more attention in this AU. The most educated on LGBTQ+ (for obvious reasons) and very much likes sparking scientifical/non-scientifical debates to poke fun.
— Definitely more than just a scientist, they help in mechanical engineering parts of missions! Like, suits for V(enelle) and A(jay) because their gems aren't powerful enough to provide full armour like Mo and Juli do.
— Bonds over pronoun problems with A(jay) cause he's genderfluid (with he/they pref).
— Actually far more interested in literate compared to science and mathematics! Not to the point math doesn't exist to them, it's a guilty pleasure. But give them a book and an essay deadline due in 3 days and they'll give you a 3 page essay tonight.
Hashtag — She also gets some more spotlight in this AU. She's deeply connected to all of the gift holders, so she's like an important asset, and like a team leader. For some reason, even if she can tap into the frequencies of other gem holders, the Emberstone holders can't feel how the other person feels through her.
— For the love of GOD, I cannot stand seeing her sanded down. She gets her old alt-mode back. She gets less confusion as GHOST vans dont shoe up anymore. She's also leaning towards a more cooler toned purple.
— One of the first to figure out how to wear the cybertronian equivalent of clothing, which is just soft rags and keychains carefully placed and designed to open when she transforms and close when she goes into cybertronian form.
Jawbreaker — I LOVE the decision to let JB stay on cybertron for a good while. So, he does stay. When he comes back, Alex gives him the biggest cybertronian history dive ever. Think of him as a mix of a cybertronian's equivalent of an archaeologist and a historian.
Mirage — Does stay on cybertron. He's that cool distant uncle you wish you saw more often. Anyways..
— Due to there being way too little bots on cybertron to do any actual fun, there's a temporary Autobot-Decepticon agreement, and Mirage has some sort of Grace period to look for survivors of the energon drought, or to bring some back to life.
Rodimus — uh uh didn't think this far. All I do know is he would cut connections with the Maltos. He'd try to make some sense, work and help around on earth, but it just doesn't seem fit for him. He can't look at Mo in the eyes anymore.
Miko and Raf — they're not really there during the final battle. So, they're living normal lives across the states (assuming witwicky is in america?..)
Sari — Now SARI is what is interesting. I thought a little bit into her character. She remains as an android, and she was rescued somewhere between the first big mandroid battle (season 1 finale) to season 1 aftermath. She was adopted by a foster family somewhere not too far from witwicky. She kept in touch with the Maltos.
— She has their energy signatures saved, and even if she can't exactly tap into everyone's individual frequency like Hashtag can, she does know how to contact a few cellphones and Hashtag, along with Mo.
— She is the BIGGEST sister-sister duo with Twitch. They both go under Megatron's wing (season 4, megs doesnt lose his memory here), and even if Sari is far, she is still technically a part of team Legacy and therefore Twitch keeps making up excuses to have her over or go to her place.
— I noticed that her eyes change color gradually in the original. Perfect. I love that. I'm keeping it. Starts changing halfway through season 2 to season 3, then MAAAYBBEE multicolored/half half colored mmixed eyes?.. nothing an android cant do...
