[Transformers Until one💫] Shadow raker

Putting a lot of details (and headcanons) for the minicons so here we go! Gotta start with the torpedoes then the buzzsaws (maybe even the weaponizers and the cyclones)

So here are bits for the torpedoes

All torpedoes are arthropods, they came from one of the seas on Cybertron (probably the Mithril sea or the Argon sea)

They're physically strong in dense atmospheres (it's like swimming to them)

They're more animalistic compared to Buzzsaws and Weaponizers

A majority of them migrated to the cities, no one knows why

They're like dogs, and the Buzzsaws are like cats, they're both opposites

When it comes to scars, the spot where the damage is at gets lighter

The Buzzsaws

They're like cats, a lot of them are strays on the streets

Since their appearance is similar to larger bots (and well they're pretty and adorable), they (and the weaponizers ) get more attention than torpedoes and cyclones, the buzzsaws get more privilege than them

The buzzsaws and Weaponizers are on decent friendly terms, but it's kinda close to frenemies territory

When they get scars, the spot gets darker

But they have one thing in common

They hate each other!

Okay now onto the four minicons!

On Divebomb and Airazor's side

Divebomb's group were one of the first few to migrate to the cities. They had a time trying to fit in, very few knew how shanix were valuable. At some point, one of the members of the group decided to bring in a circus! Over time, more and more fellow sea dwelling bots joined in to be a part of the family.

Divebomb was tasked to be a clown, it's humiliating, but it's a decent paying job. He did get bored with the job and he decided to head off to find a better job. it didn't go so well with him, no one would want him.

He decided to use almost all of his leftover shanix to modify himself, he thought that maybe if he looks different it would work. After getting modified to look more draconic, he sought out for a job again, where he met Fracture, a rookie bounty hunter, on the streets, who just let his bounty go by accident. Fracture was surprised to meet a unique looking torpedo, if only he knew.

Divebomb knew he's a torpedo and Fracture is a land vehicle (and their partnership is highly incompatible), but he still offered to help out. After their first bounty hunt together, they were successful! Fracture shared an equal amount of the payment to Divebomb, which convinced him to work with Fracture for real.

At some point in their bounty hunting, they were in the desert, they saw something at a distance and investigated it and sure enough, it was Airazor. This confuses Divebomb since torpedoes usually stay in cooler areas, not a desert. They both feel bad for the Lost and confused Airazor, so they brought him in!

Fracture doesn't know much about minicons, all he knows is just feed them and take care of them that's it. So Divebomb decided to be Airazor's older brother and do most of the work.

At some point, they met Drift and his minicons on a bounty hunt and they've been rivaling ever since. Though Divebomb does get tired of this and so is Slipstream.

On earth, after their tussle with Drift and his minicons, Steeljaw met Fracture, offered a false promise to him, and now they're stuck with the pack. Airazor doesn't mind that much, but Divebomb was furious inside. They're not getting paid, he knows Steeljaw doesn't have shanix, they're never getting paid! Steeljaw's pack are fully aware that Divebomb is indeed just a regular torpedo who pretends to be a dragon.

On Slipstream and Jetstorm's side

It's similar to some of the shorts.

After Slipstream gets robbed by a Cyclone, he really wants to find something to replace his precious ball bearing by stealing anything shiny. The folks in Serenity Yard caught wind of this and exiled Slipstream out.

Now on the streets, Slipstream does what he's best at, more stealing. Shadow Raker saw him stealing things on the streets, he took an interest in him and offered him shelter. Slipstream gladly accepts. After some time, Slipstream saw someone, Jetstorm trying to steal something and ultimately failed. Slipstream rushes in to save him, they nearly get caught.

After they get to a safe alley, Jetstorm repeatedly thanks him, Slipstream doesn't care that much. Jetstorm admitted that he's homeless and begs Slipstream to help him out. Slipstream has no idea what to do, so the only thing he did was bring him to Shadow Raker. Where they would be trained to be skilled thieves.

After Drift saves them from Shadow Raker, they begin job hunting and bounty hunting seems to be a decent choice, of course they met Fracture's group at one point.

On earth, Slipstream and Jetstorm seem to have a better outlook on their lives, even Slipstream appreciates earth's "Anime", Jetstorm still doesn't get it.

Some Divestream stuff (Divebomb X Slipstream)

When they first met, Divebomb was intrigued by Slipstreams weapon, it reminded him of the fire dancers back at the circus

Divebomb tried to flirt with Slipstream, it was "Hey, are you a thief? Cause you stole something from me" which offended Slipstream, he said he doesn't even know what he stole from Divebomb, which kinda upsets DB

Overtime they grew so tired of fighting, they actually sat down and rested right next to each other

Slipstream doesn't mind Divebomb's weird noises

They would sneak out to chill with each other

What was the Shadow Raker that was working with Drift in the Tyran cluster transformed into?

Dear Ghost Storied,

Shadow Raker, much like the rest of his Yōkai band, enjoyed the finer things in life and getting them easily through the use of his two beast modes. His courtesan mode had been trained in several dances, songs and the use of musical instruments at a Kyoto school, and its charms were often more than enough to get Shadow Raker the gold and wine he enjoyed so much. In the event that one of his human marks displeased him or had ceased being useful, the courtesan would unfold with a great cracking sound into a gigantic spider mode.
