"What..?"
Character(s) shown
Orange and yellow bot: Virtue
Woo, lore for a Transformers oc! More to come, hopefully, so I won't say much to avoid spoiling it. However, I will mention that this character would be about 10 here if she were human.
WHY AM I JUST NOW HEARING ABOUT THIS??? WHAT THE FRAG???
So was nobody gonna tell me about the theory that Cody is Onyx Prime Reincarnated
MY MIND IS BLOWN
Like it's absolutely insane but IT ALSO EXPLAINS A TON AND I CAN'T REALLY ARGUE-
Like I love Cody, he's an ADORABLE bean, and probably one of the best human characters in the franchise. he's just a sweet lil bean who genuinely wanted to befriend Cybertronians and managed to single handedly be the ENTIRE reason the team got their act together at all, the ONLY reason Heatwave gave humans a chance, and not only did Heatwave give him a chance, HE BASICALLY FUCKING ADOPTED THE KID.
But EVERYONE I have ever seen is C O N F U S E D as to why. WHY is this Kid gifted with Godly empathy and communication skills that stump and get grown adults and LITERAL ALIENS to change their entire frame of mind, going from ready to fucking throw hands to talking civilly in a matter of seconds!!!! KIDS DON'T DO THAT. CODY IS ONLY EIGHT. YEARS. OLD. AT THE BEGINNING OF THE SHOW, 14 BY SEASON 4, AND PROBABLY 16-17 BY RBA.
.... So here's why I love this theory.
IT. EXPLAINS. THINGS.
(after days of obsessive Onyx Prime research)
-Oynx Prime's main abilities were his communication skills/Empathy, something that would probably carry over in Reincarnation. In fact, I've seen TONS of people theorize that Onyx was Reincarnated as Cody for the purpose of guiding the rescue bots, who would ultimately go on to change the course of Human/Cybertronian relations as a whole!
In fact, Cody has connected with Cybertronians SO WELL, Whirl casually dropped in an episode of RBA that sometimes, THE RECRUITS F O R G E T THAT CODY ISN'T CYBERTRONIAN.
THEY FREAKING FORGET THAT HE'S A HUMAN
.... What if Cody happens to fit in so well with Cybertronians.... Because he has a Spark?????
-Onyx Prime has massive wings. Cody is CONSTANTLY associated with Flight across the show. He wears a Bomber Jacket, uses a hoverboard, briefly used those rocket shoe things, and constantly rides along with Blades and Dani.
-Onyx Prime's Alt-Mode is a Griffin. Not only does the show constantly address the mythology of Griffins (and TFP says Predacons were actually responsible for Earth's mythological creatures in the first place), but the show LITERALLY TAKES PLACE ON AN ISLAND CALLED "Griffin Rock"
Lastly, I'm not sure if this counts,
But one thing about Cody has bugged me literally the entire show. Legit, as long as I've loved rescue bots, this has bugged me.
Cody's blonde hair.
i know this sounds stupid, but... THE KID'S HAIR MAKES NO SENSE.
Charlie has been show to have had brown hair when he was younger. Dani and Kade are both bright redheads, Graham is kinda a reddish brown.
if Charlie had brown hair, then than implies that the mom was a redhead, right???
So where's the Blonde come from????
I'm not claiming to be an expert in either Genetics, Reincarnation, or Onyx Prime.
But.......
This is the only answer I have, so, I'M ROLLING WITH IT
Cody Burns, human with a Spark!
Rescue Bots Academy headcanons (with a touch of angst)
Hotshot has a (rather poorly) hidden inferiority complex
Heatwave unintentionally adopted Hotshot
Neither has any idea how it happened, Hotshot just became Heatwave's son one day
Blurr has visited the Academy at some point, and he was both glad and upset at how Heatwave has changed
On the one hand, he's happy the recruits and especially Hotshot are getting a good mentor,
But on the other, he's upset that he never got that version of Heatwave, and sometimes he wonders if it's his own fault
Grimlock treats Dinomode Hoist like a dog treats its puppy
Hoist has been scruffed on several occasions
Medix loves bats
Even before the incident with Mr. Flappy, he collected books about bats and loved watching documentaries about them
Autistic Medix, Wedge, and Hoist
ADHD Whirl and Hotshot
None of the recruits have any idea their teachers (except Heatwave) have more than one alt mode
Whirl is a scraplet colony, specifically the one Whirl Sr. Adopted in MTMTE
Whirl Jr. aroace
Colonies of metal-eating pests don't have much interest in romance, as it turns out
Ratchet changed for the better when he found out about Medix
While he is no longer afraid of dinobots, Hoist still finds actual dinosaurs a bit unnerving
This probably has to do with them being organic
While training to use a hose, Hotshot nearly passed out. Several times.
While bats are his favorite, Medix loves most types of animals
The only exception to this is deep-sea creatures
He does not understand them and he does not want to understand them
Wedge has had a brother
The way Medix's family found out he could magnetize was by finding him on the ceiling
Whirl Jr, in her most basic state, looks like a bot-shaped scraplet, with a silver body, solid blue optics, and thin limbs
A lot of bots find this appearance unnerving
More Rescue Bots Academy headcanons (this time with extra angst)
Wedge has a twin/splitspark named Axle, who Wedge both misses and despises at the same time
When he was younger, Medix was considered a 'hard-to-handle' child
In reality, he had undiagnosed Autism and didn't do well with others
As of now, he is currently taking medication for it (rescue work gets overstimulating very fast), though it took several prescriptions to find one that didn't kill his personality
Hoist and Whirl are absolute besties
Hotshot was bullied as a kid, which gave him a major inferiority complex
He stopped getting bullied shortly after joining his Cube team, but any insult still hurts him
Whirl feels like an absolute fraud whenever somebody says she's a good rescue bot because she's a scraplet colony pretending to be a bot
She knows it's for her own safety, but she still feels terrible about it
There have been times where late at night, Hoist will get scared by his own reflection if he's in dinomode
He says he's not scared anymore, but he's a little jumpy
Hotshot and the rest of his Cube team have flame designs painted on their heels because they think they're cool
Medix has spent countless hours trying to understand why so many bots don't seem to like him - he does what he's supposed to, so why doesn't anybody want to be around him?
Whirl is almost always hungry because she won't eat metal
It isn't necessary for her to survive, so she refuses to indulge her scraplet mind, but Primus, does it leave her hungry
Wedge gets severe imposter syndrome sometimes
Hoist can be pretty anxious sometimes, especially when he feels like he's already inconveniencing people
Medix listens to hyperpop
hi.
What do you draw for RBA? Or write?
I don't really draw for Transformers stuff yet because I can't draw them well, but I sometimes write fluff or angst, though I haven't recently because I've been more into Little Nightmares
Transformers Art Dump!
Over the last 2 months or so, I binge watched all of the live action movies and the aligned continuity shows! Here’s what I’ve made while watching
