13 Primes Relationship Charts!

before I put out the Primes Headcannons, here’s their relationship charts! (Mostly for me to remember if I write about them)

(More under break)

All credit goes towards @energ00n for the Apprentice AU ❤️

Big thanks and credit to @cartoonyhappyface as well for letting me use their garment designs!

I have SO much going on in my brain regarding this AU it’s so much fun! I had a great time reimagining my guys for it. I’ve had these in the drafts for a couple of months now, so some of it has outdated ideas (mainly the last frame… as we’ve gotten more information about the other primes some of the HCs don’t fit anymore, but the sentiment is still there)

I’ve got a lot of yap about this AU and personal HCs for it I want to spit out all at once so… I apologize in advance

Lord Yappatron incoming:

CW and TO are sparklinghood friends who go into apprenticeship together, get their cogs, and then go into their respective fields once they graduate. They are before D16 and Orion’s time, being peers with the likes of Starscream and Soundwave.

CW becomes a timekeeper and engineer/strategist. Timekeepers make sure everything in Cybertron runs smoothly, kind of like a manager, being responsible for anything that goes wrong in their sector and being expected to fix it. Nothing goes under the noses of Timekeepers, they have a creepy tendency to know about everything and everyone in their assigned sector.

TO becomes a surface navigator and tracking expert along with his trinemates. Surface Navigators are affiliated with the High Guard, kind of like a sub-department, they act as guides leading expeditions to the surface. In addition to being tracking experts, Surface Navigators often help hunt down criminals.

TO meets his trinemates, Voyager and Yonder, while in his apprenticeship- naturally all a part of the same house. Some Onyx Prime graduates get Beast cogs and therefore Beast alt modes, arguably going under the most change in terms of their physical form when receiving their cogs- known to be painful. TO and his trine get bird-like beast modes akin to Airazor.

CW does not like TO’s trinemates. He’ll get over it though. (no he won’t (foreshadowing))

Also, Onyx’s students having shit taste in men? Yeah that tracks (hilariously)

wanted to reblog again with a snippet of the fic i am writing!!

"

Kade stops what he's saying as he enters the kitchen, seeing the wide yellow eyes with sprinkles of red staring right into his soul. “Um, I’ll call you back,” He hangs up the phone after a moment and walks closer to the table, he recognises the small frame, and thanks to the moonlight shining in from the window, sees it’s his youngest brother “Uh… hey, little man.” he says, nervously “hi.” Cody replies simply, holding a can of fizzy pop in his hands “You doing okay?” he sees Cody nod “why you sitting in the dark?” Kade asks slowly, trying to hide any caution or worry in his voice. It didn't seem normal for his brother to just sit in the dark at nearly 3am. He sees small shoulders shrug upwards “Cause it's nice.” Cody replies easily, taking a drink of his juice. Kade watches Cody for a moment, a silent staring contest between the two “Can I sit with you? Do you want the light on?” Kade finally asks, his hand hovering over the light switch “Yes to the company, no to the light. My eyes were hurting earlier.” Kade simply nodded and sat down in the chair across from Cody, the moonlight from the window seemed to be enough of a light source for Kade to be comfortable. But the yellow of his brother's eyes was still unsettling. "Have his eyes always glowed like that?" Kade thinks.

Onyx Prime Cody au ideas

1. Sigma 17 was sent to griffon rock to find the reincarnation of Onyx Prime and dont realise hes right under their nose until one day in frusteration they list off what theyre looking for to brainstorm and are like "Oh scrap wait we're stupid."

2. Cody draws in misfits and exceptionals. No one knows he's Onyx prime but Optimus has a strong hunch. Everyone around Cody has inclinations towards Onyx-like qualities. The kind and sweet natures of everyone. Heatwave's possible future vision seems similar to Onyx's visions. So when Optimus was like "Yep we can turn onto Dinosaurs" it might have been a test if the beast qualities of Onyx manifested as well. Theyre a fated bunch and destined for much.
