I have reason from the dead (sleep) to drop more lore.
The start of MiniMegs, which has been building in the background.
Rodimus's six months depressive isolation moment that no one talked about in which he worked solely from his bedroom is interupted not by his corpse but within a month of departing Cybertron they get hailed by the Peaceful Tyranny and he, Megatron, and Ultra Magnus are freaking out preparing for a fight staging the landing platform like a fre for all battle like they did with Overlord.
Only instead of fighting, Tarn and the DJD in a synchronized and definitely practiced movement (except the small blue Minibot, that's new who is slightly slower) drop to one knee in front of him, declaring they are here to follow their Lords example and wise words and as he has seen fit to seek out the Knights of Cybertron to seek their Wisdom in judging him and that these mechanisms are apparently worthy of sharing in his journey they will of course escort him and the Lost Light while learning from his and the Autobots assembled here, clearly the best of the best of they are escorting their Lord, how to move on and make Peace not War.
It is clearly very rehearsed, incredibly theatrical like something from a period drama and both not at all what anyone was expecting and very damning for Megatron who is supposed to be person non grata to Decepticons now. So he doing some quick mental gymnastics on how to handle this and reject them without setting anyone off when Rodimus comes barrelling forward having smelled weakness, missing his own former Decepticon, senses they are sincere if definitely shady (his exact type), and having not slept since Cybertron.
He graciously excepts citing that they aren't the first former Decepticons or neutral agents on the ship, but, of course, the ship is under Autobot Law and they would need to pass the same test any defector passes to prove they can do it and then looks at Ultra Magnus, who is horrified but automatically starts citing requirements to qualify.
Which Tarn counters quickly, offering up datapads and citing lines within the Tyrest Accord that legalize his Squad under Decepticon Law, offer some intel, and is confident they can pass the test which UM is familiar with given he'd worked within it before as both sides were under the TA.
What follows is a very tense hour of the DJD sitting taking the Autobot SATs while everyone stands their tense. Every comment, including Helex singing a stufy song under his breath and Vos muttering to himself, or movement, Teserus counting with his fingers as he figure out and answer and Tarn tapping to the rhythm of their theme song, makes everyone flinch.
(This is of course after Whirl mutters, "You're fucking joking." When Magnus brought out the test papers.
Tailgate meanwhile is sympathizing with Helex's struggle on Question 17 with Cyclonus noting the song would have been useful to learn.)
Finally they pass and are tenporarily shown to their ship to wait while its graded and a surprise Command Meeting ensues.
MiniMegs are actually yelling and arguing because Ultra Magnus is utterly convinced this is a plot against them as he doesn't trust Megatron yet and Megatron is defending himself trying to explain the DJD are genuinely just like that and overzealous while Rodimus watches the ping pong conversation with relish and then grinning asks if they passed.
Ultra Magnus, through clenched teeth admits, "Yes. And Tarn's essay on certain elements was particularly inspired, especially the portion on self-identification and removal of leftover protofunctionalist language I will be quoting to the board as he has eloquently risen concerns I have attempted to cite before. Nickel, the Minibot, has also supplied a scathing essay on bodily autonomy not being accurately covered that I will be asking be submitted to the Medical Board."
Megatron doesn't quite understand UM ironclad rules are rules and attempts to convince, all silver words and charm, them to allow him a moment to persuade the DJD to leave but then UM locks down that they are required to accept anyone requesting asylum and as they have passed they are considered proto-Autobots and will need to be assessed by Rung and mentored.
They follow procedure unlike some.
(Ultra Magnus's bitterness over Drift and Megatron's inclusion in their ranks does in fact come from a place of them not having gone through proper onboarding.)
Thus they start at each other's throats.
And then Nickel mentions the Autobot they "found" and everything goes even more tits up because that's Minimus's perfect big brother.
Cur bluescreen.
(MiniMegs Part 1)
So
Wait yes this so yesssssss
"(MiniMegs Part 1)"
This is a wild ride and I feel like it's gonna continue to be because holy shit yes
Poor Megatron is wondering how he'll explain so hard that this isn't some plot of his to start the war again when Roddie just damn swoops in like a Lightning McQueen flavored phoenix.
Tarn held so many study sessions to prepare for the autobot test, damn I'm actually wondering how good of a study buddy he would be because you're certainly gonna learn the topic.
Ohhh Mags, Megs... You two are gonna be dragged under just like the rest of us— no mech will be unaffected by the end of this lmao.
Everyone is bluescreening and Tarn and Roddie are sitting in in the corner making goo goo optics at each other

The ethnocentrism of our tribe is navel-gazing, so to speak, scientifically and rationally. The ethnocentrism of our tribe is ethnofuge, cryptoethnic, epistemocentric.

Because of war let’s:
Make love 💕 in alllll the ways we may show affection. Like a post, send a text, reblog with your sweetest tags. True compliments!
Love ourselves. Just be gentle to you. 🧸
Make art, share art 🖼️ now especially from our Muslim & Jewish friends
Volunteer, donate, advocate. Stay active 🌈
Celebrate life! Palestine is more than a nation deemed weak in the lands, New Orleans is more than a city in U.S. (which turns aside when levies break.) Trans people are more than upset with overrated writers who live in a bog.
These are peoples who teach us the unwavering might going into our new world
The joy of constructing a new culture whose cornerstone transcends “borders / language”
Because we value our variance the way a garden loves it’s many hues. We learn from cohabitation. We see God in a boundless future.
So we cultivate resilience. Just to be here.

Here's to "fuck Columbus" day.
Also, the line about how hard it is to rhyme with Arowak/Taíno still gets me. Time for you to brush up on a second language, Yakko. It's not so bad in Spanish.

So I'm sitting here, thinking about Fractured Reflections, and wondering where the Wreckers fit in.
We know sg Slicer has defected to the baseline autobots (or to the baseline cons, or is skirting along the edges like a Paleolithic wolf/dog), that the Drifts teamed up that one time, that the BL autobots 100% adopted sg Whirl, and that SG Roddie might've had an interaction with BL Rodimus, but I'm turning it around in my head.
I severely doubt the SG Wreckers would stay with SG Optimus and his bots, but I don't think they'd integrate well with the little alliance we've got going on (many of the defected sg autobots wouldn't)
