#ohh..

From what I've read so far I imagine Bee isn't exactly happy that breakdowns back with the stunticons. Probably because what little context he has on their relationship isn't exactly great. From Bees perspective maybe it's like watching a friend leave to meet with their kinda toxic family they haven't spoken to in years.

He'd probably be mostly unaware of the extent of the character development there.

That's true!! Bee would definitely feel conflicted about the whole situation. Breakdown is a dear friend, and as far as he knows the Stunticons have not been a healthy team. He wouldn't want Breakdown to just go back to them like that... But Breakdown seems very happy about it? It's confusing for Bee. They seem much happier now, but also they're seemingly here for vengeance?? Do they all really want vengeance? They don't act like it?? What's even going on?? I can imagine the Terrans questioning Bee about things concerning Breakdown after this development and Bee would just be so lost about it all, he wouldn't even answer questions he knows the answer of. He just wants to talk things out with his friend 😔

This makes me think about something! I always imagined this AU to be a bit different from the canon Earthspark timeline. So Bee saying "Back on Cybertron, before the war, I've had this friend..." is ignored in this AU, because here the Stunticons are created during the war. ((Bee is also born at the start of the war in this AU too. Which makes Breakdown just a bit younger than Bee here, pfft)) But maybe I can change that...? I adore the G1 version of the Stunticons so I tried to make their origins according to it. But I also want to make this as according to Earthspark as possible? ooh so much thoughts 😵

I'll probably just keep it as them being born when the war was already happening. I have no idea otherwise 😔I'm not sure how to write the Stunticons' characters if they were having good lives before the war and then suddenly they all struggle to an extreme extent like this... Maybe though, the Stunticons didn't even know each other before the war? 👀 And they were just brought together when all of them were at the brink of death to create a combiner... And this gestalt bond they were forced into, plus the near-death experience all of them had, caused them all to develop different coping mechanisms and issues like this... Ohh maybe I can work with that actually!! It would explain why Breakdown trusts Bee so easily when they meet during his paranoid episode too! Must think about this!! Definitely definitely!!
