No one's stinky as Landlot

No one's has no bitches as Landlot

Oh gosh I'm gonna go on a huge tangent about this guy, mostly because I feel like it.

So Landlot is the newest version of a character that belonged to my own ex boyfriend. However I was the one to properly flesh out his character, the most my ex did was give him a color pallet and basic personality.

For context, One Spark first started as a fanfiction called "End of the rode" made by my ex. It was a post apocalyptic transformers au where the Optimus and Megatron are dead, the autobots are trying to make another arc to get to Cybertron and the decepticons are now led by Starscream. The story only really got a proper threw line when I suggested adding a character I had thought up, Sal Witwicky, the orphaned daughter of Spike Witwicky. Sal's deal was that she resented transformers because they not only destroyed her world, but let her family die, now she's one of few surviving humans. She gets found by Hound and reluctantly agrees to go back with him to the autoboot base.

At one point, Sal was supposed to be horribly injured by Ravage (who was only there because I really liked Soundwave, and his addition helped fill in plot gaps), to the point she was about to die. However they put her in a experimental protoform body... she would now be known... as Sparkplug. (I also came up with this plotline)

Why am I going on about this? Well because it's important to why Land lot exists on my current story. Landlot in the old fanfiction was a twin and was one of the first transformers built on earth, post Sparkplug getting put into robot body. He was supposed to be the leader of his group, as he was kind of a hotrod wanna be. He was also vary clearly a self projection character for my ex, similar to how I tend to project onto Sparkplug. I had offered the idea for Sparkplug and Landlot to be a couple, I can't remember if my ex was on board for the idea or not, however I do remember it being the only thing close to romance in the whole story.

So here we are a good maybe 6 years later. I had a lot of trauma from that relationship to the point I still dream about him, and the moment I realize it's him in my dream, I try and get away from him, not wanting to be with him at all. I won't say I was a saint during that relationship, but I do resent him for being able to find some sense of peace with intimacy. A lot of shit happened... So when I decided to remake the Transformers AU, I was mean to Landlot.

So who is Landlot in the One Spark AU?

Well he's a 1970's Plymoth GX, who emerged with his twin sister, Defender. They emerged pretty soon after the matrix awakened the energon on earth. They emerged vary close to the autobot base and were taken in and trained like any normal sparkling would be trained back on Cybertron. He fit in vary well as he remined a lot of the autobots of the older days, just a bunch of guys who turned into cars acting like heroes and messing around. He would become a poster boy for the transformers born on Earth.

How did he end up dating Sparkplug? Well I'll tell yah. Despite a lot of my art showing people dotting over Sparkplug, that wasn't the case for a majority of the autobots, yes a good amount of them formed bonds with her, but it was only because they were related to prime. Bot's like Ironhide, sideswipe, Blur, Proceptor and a good amount of other autobot's being vary against Megatron and Soundwave being allowed to join, and some are still convinced that Sparkplug is just part of a secret plan of Megatron to try and take over earth again.

So a lot of bots stayed away from her, and this bias would trickle down to the new earth born bots on the base. So Sparkplug never had any friends her age, the closet being Rumble and Frenzy who were basically teenagers when she was born. However Sparkplug did grow up to be rather pretty... well... as pretty as you can be while being a weird combination of two bots. Even though she tried to talk to the other young bots, her awkwardness and bluntness only made them stay away from her. However Landlot slip in, seeing an opportunity to have a cute/shy girlfriend. Sparkplug fell hard and fast for him because she had never had anyone interested in her romantically. He would try and mold Sparkplug into a sweet, dotting and helpless shy girl that would hang on his arm to make him look cooler. Because how badass would it be to show that he was able to get the notorious Megatron's daughter to be his side chick.

Eventually, Sparkplug got tired of getting the short end of the stick and decided to break up with him after seeing that he was trying to get with other bots behind her back, bot's that vary clearly didn't like her.

So that's where they stand as of now. Landlot is still a celebrated leader for his heroics and fun personality, while Sparkplug just only got passed to go on missions and was put on the most mind numbing job imaginable.

sorry that this is so long, I just really wanted to share all this info

LANDLOT: "AH! Thank you for coming on such short notice, Mr. Sentinel."

SENTINEL: "I don't usually leave the asylum in the middle of a night, but your friend here said you'd make worth my while."

LANDLOT: "Look! I've got my heart set on marrying Sparkplug....but she needs little.... persuasion.

SWINDLE: "THA! Turned him down flat! UF!"

LANDLOT: "It’s like this..."

LANDLOT:When a mech like me is thwarted

And denied his honeymoon

SWINDLE:When the pretty thing he's courted

Refuses to swoon

LANDLOT:Then the time has come for a murky plan

SWINDLE:For which he turns to a murky mech

LANDLOT & SWINDLE:To find that fiend where better than

At the Maison des Lunes?

LANDLOT:You'll be strapping up an inmate

SWINDLE:Very tightly

LANDLOT:Very soon

But we won't bring him in late

SWINDLE:Your check-in time's noon

SENTINEL:How sad Megatron is not too well

LANDLOT:Prepare a five-star padded cell!

LANDLOT & SWINDLE:And book him in for a long, long spell

At the Maison des Lunes

LANDLOT:Do I make myself entirely clear?

SWINDLE:It's the simplest deal of your whole foul career

LANDLOT:Put Megatron away, and she'll be here in moments

SWINDLE:In a dreadful state

LANDLOT:She'll capitulate to me

SENTINEL:Oh! Oh! Oh, I love incarceration

I could lock up a platoon

LANDLOT:We'll apply your inclination

To a mad old buffon

LANDLOT & SWINDLE:Then wave one bachelor goodbye

LANDLOT:She'll be my bride

SWINDLE:She'd rather die

Then have her daddy ossify

SENTINEL:The time's opportune

LANDLOT,SWINDLE & SENTINEL:So book the church, raise glasses high

To the Maison des Lunes!

I hope you liked this musical I made for you. I really love your OCs. You deserve so much love, and we hate Landlot lol

once again, I had to be on my laptop to answer this. And I'm not gonna lie... I kinda forgot the second half of "Beauty and the Beast". Yes the animation major forgot the second half of one of the most celebrated animated films of all time. I was a sleeping beauty girl okay? That boring ass movie didn't make me anxious as a child so I watched it a lot more.

Crazy old Megatron..mmmhhh

Swindle, I'm afraid I've been thinking

(A dangerous pastime...)

I know,

But that drunk old claner is Sparkplug's father

And his sanity's only so-so

Now the wheels in my head have been turning

Since I looked at that enraged and loony old man

See, I promised myself I'd be married to Sparkplug

And right now, I'm evolving a plan!

[If I... *whispering*]

[Yes?]

[Then we... *whispering*]

[No, would she?]

[*whispering* Guess!]

[Now I get it!]

[Let's go!]

No one plots like Landlot

Takes cheap shots like Landlot

Plans to persecute harmless crackpots like Landlot!

So his marriage we will soon be celebrating

My, what a guy

Landlot!
