Chapter Text
Hello there! A few words of advice before you read,
-This is my first, proper piece of fiction writing.
-Plating refers to their “skin”, while armor is all the colored bits.
-Since I don't want to write ‘transforms their arms into blasters’ every time a bot brings out their weapon(s), please just understand when it says “brings/pulls out blaster” that their arm is becoming the blaster unless otherwise stated.
-"Subspace" refers to the bots' cockpit (Think of the scenes where Bulkhead takes out Miko)
Next, measurements of time! My headcannons are probably incorrect with canon values, but it's my fanfic so I don't care. Some terms will be based off of Cybertron's time, others as a general descriptor to be used on any planet.
Cybertronian measurements of time
Decavorn- Ten vorns.
Vorn- Full rotation of Cybertron around its star (Approximately 83 earth years)
Cycle- On Cybertron there were 20 of these in a ‘day’. It’s a little longer than an hour.
Micron- 100th of a cycle. Approximately 1 second.
General measurements of time
Orbital cycle- One full rotation around a star.
Solar cycle- One full rotation of a planet.
With that out of the way, I hope you enjoy reading! This has truly been a labor of love and patience. Don’t be afraid to comment, I can't always get to them all but I appreciate them!
