Wingslip doesn't necessarily have to be on the bridge, depending on where the sensor arrays are located. Hell, he could be in the sensor room of the Axalon, monitoring and relaying sensor data in real-time to the bridge for firing solutions and astrogation.

I was going to have Ringtail in Section 7, kicking a blast door so it shuts before the whole ship depressurizes. Mammoth, if he wishes, can be with her, keeping her from getting swept out the hull breach.

Ok, so we're missing intro posts from Jason (Einsimian) and Fisher (Howler), and then we can get into the part about the crash and the "wow, look I'm an aminal lol" part.

If you quote "He's dead, Prime" I'm going to hit you"For Primes sake, I'm a scientist, not a combat technician!"

Considering Prime is a title in Autobot culture saying "For Prime's sake" seems a little like saying "For President's sake!" unlikely at best.

Optimus Primal's favorite saying was "That's Just Prime", so it's a valid usage.frigidmagi wrote:Considering Prime is a title in Autobot culture saying "For Prime's sake" seems a little like saying "For President's sake!" unlikely at best.

Actually, I don't think I ever heard Optimus Primal say that when he wasn't being sarcastic.LadyTevar wrote:Optimus Primal's favorite saying was "That's Just Prime", so it's a valid usage.
That's hilarious, now that I think about it.

I always took it as his own personal version of SNAFU.

Prime became a a sarcastic thing for Optimus Primal, analogue to "that's just great..."
Prime is the Autobot title for their commander, where as the Maximal's use "Convoy" for the same thing (Leo Convoy, Big Convoy, for examples). Optimus Primal took his name as to honor Optimus Prime, his direct descendant "mold" wise.
Both Optimus Primal and the Convoy units all have a similar "facial" structure as Optimus Prime did, the faceplate, over the mouth (Optimus Primal uses it as a "battle mask" instead of a common face).
But no one really outside of Optimus, used "Prime" as a expletive.

Primus is well... Basically God to the Autobots. The Creator Deity more or less.

Yeah, that works. In fact, it makes more sense for a Maximal to roll his/her eyes and say "Oh, for the love of Primus."frigidmagi wrote:Primus is well... Basically God to the Autobots. The Creator Deity more or less.

theres a buncha expletives you could use if you want..remember, Beast Wars introduced us to Cybertronian Expletives ("Slag", "for booting up cold", etc).

Actually....
I think I have a good idea of what I'm going to do with this group so your not stepping on the "main" casts toes to much..

I forget precisely which episode it was of Beast Wars, but in the second season, Rattrap referenced "his great-aunt Arcee."frigidmagi wrote:Last I checked Transformers don't have parents.
I just ran with that, pretty much.
