In tfp do you think the vehicon play games when other bots are looking? Like soundwave is off on a mission so some vehicons decided were just gonna play 20 questions. I feel like it would be a little funny.
I bet they absolutely do.
The Vehicons have to keep all their games on the down low to avoid Starscream or some other Commander stopping them. So most of their games are either easy to hide, or require no tools at all. There are a few rather popular games amongst the Vehicons that are their preferred choice of pass time when they can't leave their posts but still have nothing much to do.
Obviously, the most common game is cards. But of course, it is not as simple as one might think. A Vehicon needs to be worthy to play the game, and they way they do this is by trading for the cards that one uses to begin with. Every card is specially crafted, each modeled after a notable wartime character, Autobot or Decepticon. In order for a card to be produced, a piece of the character in question must be gathered and quite literally put into the card. Usually this means having to grab a piece of shed plating before anyone notices. As such, cards have increadible rarity and the strength of each card is determined by how many are in circulation, whether or not the character is dead, and the edition of the card.
It is honestly less about the game and more about the collecting and production process. Sure, the Vehicons will actually play the card game using real life stats around each character, but more often it is a trading match. Three Starscreams for one Whirl. No one has seen Blaster since Cybertron went dark, so his card is worth four Bumblebees. Eight Optimi for two first edition Orion Pax cards (an ultra rare collectable considering most of Orion Pax's plating fell off LONG ago.) Four Megatrons for two Megatronus cards, and two Megatronus cards for one D-16 (Soundwave has the only known D-16 copy and no one is willing to take it from him.)
The cards are highly valued and often taken excellent care of. Only some Vehicons are certified to make more via the general agreement of the troops. The most sought after cards are by far the:
Party Ambulance Ratchet: Only three are known to exist and Pharma absolutely has one and Optimus may or may not have the other. It is unconfirmed. There are rumors the remaining one is floating around in a different Vehicon battalion, so the Vehicons have no yet lost hope for it.
Gladiator Soundwave: There are two known copies of this card, and many believe Soundwave claimed both. ST3V3 swears up and down that Megatron has one, but few are willing to go ask the warlord to confirm.
Rumble & Frenzy: A duo card that has long since gone out of production in light of the minicons deaths. There are perhaps fifty somewhere in the galaxy and only one Vehicon on the Nemesis has a copy. He keeps it in perfect condition.
End Your Life Tarn: One very VERY unfortunate Vehicon managed to get enough off Tarn to create a singular legendary card. Myths say that it may still exist somewhere in the ether, in Tarn's personal collection, or somewhere else in the universe.
Senator Proteus: Why does it exist? No one is entirely sure since he died early into the war. But a Vehicon has a copy of the card and it is said that six others may still be around. No one cares much for Proteus, but his card is rare and thus valuable considering the mech has been dead for millennia.

YOLO THIS IS MY FIRST POST ON TUMBLR, WHICH I WONT POST OFTEN, MAINLY JUST REBLOG STUFF❤️
.
..
…
SO ANYWAYS I HAVE SOME HCS FOR FUN
SENATOR PROTEUS
He **IS** narcissistic.
HE DEFINITELY HAS A CRUSH ON SENTINEL (PRIME).
My man’s dick so rotten he has flies on it
He definitely has one of those dominating, worshipping kinks.
I believe he was JEALOUS of shockwave (other than shockwave’s betraying of the senate, and working alongside basically criminals, and being smart, predicting, etc..), THAT was one of his reasons as to why shockwave had empurata.
The reason he ordered shockwave to get shadowplay(ed) is because proteus KNEW, that shockwave’s explosive(or bipolar) personality would take a toll on the senate. And because shockwave was like that, and liked disrespecting Proteus.. proteus did himself a favor, and proceeded to make a lobotomy, BECAUSE he knew shockwave would be more serious, take stuff seriously, and because it would serve as an advantage to proteus.
My man’s stank. He showers monthly.
HE ONLY USED PERFUME.
IF you smell closely he probably smells like rotten milk.
OCD (OBCD😹😹😹)
.
..
…
SENATOR RATBAT
MY MAN DEFINITELY GOES OUT FOR SOME FANCY NIGHTS..
Vampire core.
He likes the dark.
He can SEE in the dark.
Obviously, canonly (because of his wings), He’d be a predacon. A flier. A mix of both I say..
HES GOTHIC
He definitely drinks wine 24/7 and liked to visit the poor to insult and flex on them.
Man’s dick is medium sized.
Because of the toys (legacy model), I hc NOT ONLY can he transform into a bat-like animal, but into a submarine. And because as I previously mention (him being part flier), also into a jet.
He likes scaring others. And wearing ANYTHING that’s gold.
.
..
…
SENATOR SHOCKWAVE
Secretly bipolar.
MANS ESCAPED THE MENTAL ASYLUM 5 TIMES
Used to get therapy.
SEX LIFE BIGGER THAN HIS DICK
Body dysphoria.
LOVES PARTIES
alcoholic.
He IS an asshole. And liked to fight.
Narrow eyes = grumpy looking face. Soft smile = QT PIEE
Because he experiments. He broke his T-cog numerous times and manipulated it. Which means he can transform into whatever he likes, as long as his plating (and/or armor) has more than enough parts.
.
..
…

I'm back in tumblr, and can make your characters suffer again(just a joke)
Shockwave
Steamblast — How high is the chance, that Shockwave from my universe might come here without turning into a human, like we here? And how did that come in my mind?
Bumblebee
Mara — wanna prank someone? I have an Idea how *holds a transparent film*
Wheeljack
Ruster — It was reported to me, that you talked to a guy, whose leg turned robotic, is that true?
*multi-universe radio working*
Ruster — It works again?
Proteus wont be able to handle Dealing with 2 ShockWave at the same time lol
Never trust WheelJack-

I had this TFPSG oneshot series fic idea i haven't managed to write.
Basically it would be about the senators after the Autobot-Decepticon revolution (they were originally allied), locked up in a room or a few and awaiting execution. They turn each other, accusations fly, and almost everybody tries to pin their crimes on somebody else. Among other things Proteus gets accused of being a secret reversionist (functionist-repressed religion whose core belief is that everybody has a fragment of Primus' divine spark in them and should be equal), Momus gets accused of being a traitor despite being locked up in there with them, Dai Atlas gets accused of being completely deranged, Contrail gets called out for his cowardice because while he claims he never agreed with the funtionists he never dared to do anything, etc. Proteus begs the guard to let him speak to Ratbat*, hoping he can avoid dead.
I never decided how it ends, or if Proteus is going to die or not.
(*Ratbat was a beastformer senator, but mostly as a figurehead so the functionists could claim that they don't oppress or discriminate against "good" beastformers. Eventually they tried to have him killed for talking too much, but Soundwave and Ravage save him and he joins the proto-Decepticons. Ratbat later dies in the Autobot-Decepticon war before it leaves Cybertron)
That'd be interesting, especially since i admit i haven't put much thought into the individuals members of the senate that much!

I'm another anon, I was looking for something with Proteus and "Idle A While" turned out to be just *chef's kiss*. A great image of this character, dangerous and powerful and horny (and lonely?) at the same time. Also, how was his date with Senator Shockwave?
I'm so pleased that you enjoyed it! It's definitely one of my lesser popular stories, but that's to be expected with two minor (ish) characters.
I would imagine that the following date was devoid of any productivity, as neither of them would rescind their political position, nor would they find common ground. Skids would be released once Shockwave came prepared with evidence proving his innocence (which Shockwave had time to research, something he couldn't do for their initial meeting) but would leave with the uncomfortable knowledge that Proteus would not give up that easily, and that the whole Academy was at risk because of it.
I also think that's where Proteus would begin connecting the dots as to why Shockwave is so protective of Orion, maybe even suspecting that it's beyond a simple friendship. That realization would make him a lot more aggressive. Jealous people tend to be nonsensical to begin with, but Proteus would stop at nothing to make Shockwave regret his decision to flirt with dissenters.

He looks so happy talking about his obsessions 🥺 ^
Shockwave using his political power almost entirely for passion projects will never not be funny to me.
Like, “Yes I am a Senator. No, I will not be giving up my scientific endeavors. Wanna hear about my newest project?” :D
Proteus: You go here now. My game. My rules.
Shockwave: Oh, there’s a game? I’m so sorry. Let me just ignore you and play by myself then.
Proteus: …Off with his head.

I’ve been trying to figure out how Iacon in “Habitual Affair” operates politically, because I admittedly didn't think much of it at first.
I may refine this later, or perhaps even just ... not talk about it at all in the fic lmao, but here is what I have:
The Tale as Old as Time: The Rich Control Everything
➭ The wealthy, landowning families and associations ("Houses") have always occupied political positions.
➭ The Old Hierarchy ran thus: The Council → The Senate → The Prime, with the Council holding the most power and the Prime being a figurehead. The Senate is in the middle, naturally.
➭ The rules surrounding the Old Hierarchy ensured that only mecha of the kilo could fulfil those roles:
➭ To sit in the Council, one needed to have served on the Senate. To serve in the Senate, one needed to be from a House. To be a Prime one needed to have a backer from a reputable enough House and be voted in by the Senate.
➭ The Council was dissolved due to certain circumstances (*cough* Senate wanting to consolidate its power *cough*), with the Office of the Prime only surviving another century or so longer.
➭ Though the title of ‘Prime’ still exists as a military title, the last ‘Prime’ as it is commonly defined (i.e. the head honcho of the government / figurehead) was Nominus.
On Primes
➭ Though Primes are limited re: their actual legal power, they retain the "control" the Senate.
➭ That includes dissolving the Senate, acting as the Mediator during senatorial debates, and other such associated duties. Primes also hold some influence over what topics the Senate is allowed to debate.
➭ This last power was meant to ensure that the Senate spent some of its time doing actual good, but it usually didn't work out that way.
➭ Still, Nominus made clever use of that power to loosen the restrictions on who could hold a Senate seat. (The Office of Prime was swiftly done away with, after, but his changes remained in effect.)
Nominus’ Changes
➭ He sliced the number of sitting senators from 300 to 150, encouraging Senators who represented districts that were historically or geographically linked to form coalitions.
➭ He removed the requirement that all Senators must attend every senatorial meeting; those disinterested in politics could fuck off, rather than play the role of "neutral" backbenchers and being swayed by the more powerful Senators.
➭ This was meant to prevent family fueds from making their way into the Senate — with everyone in the kilo being loosely related to each other, senate-coalitions were often based on familial relations and advantageous connections.
➭ Due to the above, of the 150 senators, only about 50% (75) are active participants.
➭ He refined the Hereditary and Elected Seat System.
➭ Hereditary Seats are inherited, with the oldest kilo Houses (and a few, choice Associations and positions) maintaining a guaranteed seat in the Senate.
➭ Elected Seats are exactly what they sound like: you have to be elected by the people to have one of these seats.
➭ To satisfy the kilo Houses, the # of Elected Seats is always lower than that of the Hereditary ones. The split is usually 45% Elected Seats to 55% Hereditary Seats.
Proteus and Shockwave
➭ They both have Hereditary Seats in the Senate.
➭ Senator Proteus has inherited House Proteus’ seat (assuming the name ‘Proteus’ alongside it).
➭ Senator Shockwave’s seat is tied to whoever holds the position of Chancellor of the Academy of Science.
➭ Shockwave may have led an upper-middle class life, but his family doesn't have kilo blood.
➭ If he loses his position of Chancellor, he loses his seat. If he steps down as Chancellor, he loses his seat. If the position of 'Chancellor' ceases to exist and is replaced by another title, Shockwave loses his seat — even if that new title has the same, exact duties of that of the Chancellor.
➭ Reason being, the legislation which grants this seat specifically names the ‘Chancellor of the Academy of Science' as its inheritor.
➭ Certain factions within the Senate have actually removed competition by exploiting this rule: one senator, serving as a High Priest, lost his seat when that position was dissolved when the Senate shifted away from Functionism as the state religion.

I’m bored, so I’m gonna drop some senate headcanons before I go to bed.
- Sentinel is an avid hunter in his free time
- Ratbat is what Sentinel calls a “tamed beast”, referring to evolved beastformers that have lost most of their animalistic qualities and have even developed vehicle alt modes
- Proteus is a water alt, paying homage to the Greek God Proteus, the first son of Poseidon
- In addition to his water based alt mode, Proteus also lives in a culture of sirens and singing as widespread communication
- Ratbat and Soundwave were originally conjunxed and raised the cassettes together, but Ratbat sided with his political allies and voted out Soundwave during the Rust Plague when he raised concerns about the senate’s lack of action
- Ratbat and Hellbat are cousins, and Ratbat can also do the hypnotism trick that Hellbat can do, though Ratbat is much more advanced at using his ability
- Proteus is rumored to be able to “foretell the future” because of his accurate “predictions” of certain events and consequences, though this “ability” is thanks to his web of control he exudes to ensure his will is carried out
- Proteus engages in a hobby of going out wearing different kibble to spend some nights away from his position, another reference to the God Proteus, who could shape shift to avoid people seeking him out for his prophetic ability
- Proteus has a younger brother named Triton, who serves as the Emirate and ruler of their homeland
- Shockwave and Soundwave are brothers, Shockwave being the much more open and extroverted, while Soundwave was quiet and mostly kept to himself
If you want some more, I’ll post them as a reblog or something. ✌️
