backstory: you end up working for Megatron because again, you legitimately do not have a brain. Blackarachnia fucked up the experiment so badly that we came out as a kitchen cupboard 💔 so Megsy was able to easily manipulate them. you're a minicon and you're often left with Blitzwing, his brain module got split in three so the two of you get along nicely.

secondly, i wanna get into how the alt mode works & ability workings BECAUSE I LOVE THE TECHNICAL MAKING STUFF UP PART. you would have an air+water alt mode, you are very lightweight and can float in the air (with some additional fire power) as well as swim. but rather than typical jellyfish neurotoxins, i think you could have the ability to overload circuits with massive voltages, the current causes their internal systems to fry and as a result, instant termination. of course, it has a range and the shock effect is stronger depending on how close contact was with you.

physically, you looks just about like any other bot in your bipedal except that some part of your chassis are translucent and see through... it freaks a few mechs out with how they can see your internal systems. like... jumpscare warning 😭

DECEPTICONS

— They think you're... something. Megatron doesn't really have a high opinion of you other than "a pawn" the first time Blackarachnia shows you off.

— Blackarachnia was trying to see if high-voltages could some how reverse any techno-organic to fully technological by killing off the organic side. She's had millennia to experiment and you were born from that experiment. Were you a failure? Yes but did you abilities hold some merit to the Cause according to the dimwits aboard? ...Also yes.

— You're a valuable asset with how small you are. Megatron almost steps on you on the daily. If it weren't for the beeping noises from your frame- Shockwave has attached a remote camera onto you given you can't really speak in the traditional matter, your electrical abilities have shorted your vocalizer. So whenever you go somewhere that big bad Decepticons can't fit, they can see what you see in an area totally unaccessible to them. Especially since you can't really... report your findings with your vocalizer gone.

— You're assigned with Blitzwing! Because Blackarachnia doesn't like being held accountable for her horrid creations beyond computing capacity :3 So you have a best friend. Blitzwing is hesitant at first. He thinks of you as a Frankenstein's monster. He does not wanna be associated with you. But the two of you technically share trauma from the same evil scientist-

— You're more like a venting plushie for Blackarchnia. She sits down and vents to you but everything enters one audial and comes out the other. You don't have a brain but she finds some sort of comfort in getting to say things out to someone. Even if they can't understand it.

— Starscream hates you. Lowkey. He does a smiliar thing as Blackarachnia but instead of life problems and self loathing, its all his plans to overthrow Megatron. You just nod. You don't understand a word but the camera Shockwave implanted in you long before he left to Cybertron is technically recording all that.

— Since you're just about as big as Sari, you can fit into Blitzwing's Cockpit! Same with Starscream & Lugnut. But Lugnut has almost killed you with his giant pedes more than once.

— Funnily enough, you seem to like Starscream the most because... because no one really understands how. It's just sort of happened, really. The mech literally hates you the most.

AUTOBOTS

— At first, they don't even think you're Cybertronian. To them, you're literally some sort of body horror abomination. Prowl thinks you might be an affront to nature. Bee is creeped out but finds how your insides show to be kinda cool and Bulkhead is just... Terrified of you.

— The first time they came across you, the tiny menace was a total accident which scarred them for life because they did not expect to see what they saw. Ratchet thinks you're a biological enigma, how does your fuel systems even work!?!?!?

— But ultimately, they learn that you're brainless. And they hope that... maybe they could bring you over to their side. Just maybe.

— But the real task is for Optimus... Since you're Megatron loyal brainless (literally) lapdog, you'll run towards Prime with 0 frags to give. He cant even get a direct hit at you either!!! You're too small and close contact is a bad idea... He saw a display of your abilities before. He also learns how... strong your shocks are the first time he uses his grapple to grab you. Ratchet made sure that Prime had insulated grappling wires after that episode.
