Hi! Saw your awesome doodles and decided to ask)
First of all, how does the transformation affects Wheeljack's physical state? What is the mental state of it? How does he feel about it? What ability (or abilities) he might gain?
Sorry if there are too much questions but I got REALLY interested in your idea)))
Hi there!
That's alright. I love questions ♡
Alrighty, so, let's start from the top.
Wheeljack doesn't escape Darkmount. The whole reason the decepticons let Wheeljack go was to try and find the others. In this case, let's say that Shockwave had other plans.
Shockwave decided that the best thing to do would be to turn an autobot against their own. He's already messing around with Predacon CNA, why not let his mad scientist theories be put to the test?
Shockwave was wondering just what would happen if predacon CNA was mixed into a regular cybertronian's energon stream. Like a homunculus except the test subject is already well developed.
So, Shockwave keeps Wheeljack in his lab as his lab rat. It takes a lot of tranquilizers to keep Wheeljack down, but knowing Shockwave, he wants the autobot to hurt, especially after the failed cortical psychic patch.
I don't want to get too into detail yet because I wanna incorporate it into the writing I'm planning out ;)
But in short, it's a world of pain to be under the mercy of Shockwave. Just imagine it, having your body be torn through to make room for new limbs or having metal plating forcefully shifted as the predacon CNA makes changes for bodily necessity, such as reducing wind drag when in flight.
It's a slow and torturous process, and I'm pretty sure the writing will reach a mature genre for all the gore.
Complete with starvation and deprivation, there's no doubt that Wheeljack's sanity will be put to the test, especially with new predatory instincts.
He's already been alone for a very long time before and has only recently found team Prime. We all know that no one went looking for him when he was captured as they all believed that "Wheeljack always comes back."
Knowing that no one has bothered to look for him and is probably presumed dead, I'm pretty sure that would just add to the pain.
It's a struggle for Wheeljack, for sure.

Heya! Glad you liked the song! Sometimes songs can be a really good source of inspiration, haha) I have another music recommendation — "Rise" and "Gods" by League of Legends. These ones are cool too!
Got me an idea of Wheeljack vs Predaking fight. Like Jackie fighting him in his hybrid form or full beast mode if he ever goes through full transformation. I imagined that his beast mode like Night Fury being really fast and shooting plasma at the enemies.
And damn... When I think about Miko and Bulkhead I wonder how would they both feel when they see Wheeljack's mutilated body. How would they react? How would they feel about it, especially Bulk? Would they be scared of him? And what would Jackie think when he sees their fear of him?
Feel free to tell me I'm wrong in some things, I'm just sharing my ideas with you 😉 Who knows, maybe it will help you to get your own ideas for your AU)
P.S.: tried to send this ask before but network error decided otherwise, haha)
Hey!
Sorry for the late answer (life ya know)
But I'll definitely be giving those songs a listen >:)
I won't lie, I'm gonna be .... what's the word.
Channeling? Ya know when like someone expresses their emotions through a character by fanart or fanfic? I don't remember, lol
But yeah imma be channeling alot of anger and rage into BeastJack >:]
1, because yeah
2, because yeah! It makes sense! Who wouldn't be upset at being painfully experimented on and coming out not recognizing yourself because you've been so disfigured
That's one of my main focuses with this story, to be honest. Channeling that rage that Wheeljack should have had the liberty to express more freely. Not only because of everything he's gone through pre-experiment, but because of what he'll inevitably go through and have to face afterward.
He'll have to face the fact that he no longer looks or acts like himself before. That his friends are more than likely going to be afraid of him (maybe not Miko, I think she'd find his new form sick as hell).
It's going to be a lot. I don't doubt that at least one of the bots is going to shoot at him upon first sight. It can trigger a pretty nasty fight or flight response.
And it'll more than likely leave Wheeljack as a rogue. The only people I see going after him would be Miko and Bulkhead (Bulkhead after some convincing by Miko because of that belief of his that "Jackie always comes back").
It leaves room to explore the idea that these bots are so out of tune with emotions because of so many years living and surviving a war that has ultimately led to them pushing their feelings aside for the sake of the battle.
(P.S. I got all of your asks lol, I admire your determination ♡♡)
