Is romance ever a motivator for cyberforming? I saw some characters listed who are often shipped with bots Noah×Mirage Tracks×Raoul Charlie×Bumblebee ect are any of them cannon to your au and if so dose it change anything about the process or cyberforming or integration?
Hi Anon!
My answer is yes, yes and yes again! Romantic interest can be one of the motivators for cyberformation. However, unfortunately, an Autobot cannot demonstrate this directly, even if a person reciprocates his interest. Other Cybertronians may consider his actions compromised, too personal and that he is not acting in the interests of protecting his precious ally and friend. Personal reasons should not stand above other reasons for this process, so most use the reason for the safety or usefulness of this or that person (Although there are nuances, each case is considered separately. No one is saying that this system has not been bypassed). You see, infatuation with both us humans and Cybertronians can be fleeting, and the process of cyberformation is not reversible, so in essence, the Cybertronian must be 100% that the feeling is reciprocated. I would say that this romantic interest can already emerge from a close friendship and connection between a human and a Cybertronian.
The senior Autobot officers (Prowl or Ultra Magnus in particular) have a strict position, if they suspect that cyberformation has questionable grounds, they will not give their permission. In their opinion, a person should become a part of Cybertronian society and bring something to it, be it intelligence, strength or other qualities. Optimus is more loyal in this regard, it is for this reason that he mainly gives permission (He simply knows that all Cybertronians are interested in their human friend becoming one of them, why should he refuse if the couple wants to be together? It's just that Prime usually asks both parties separately to make sure that the feelings are mutual).
This fact does not affect the process of Cyberform, but it does affect the subsequent stages. A Cybertronian who is romantically interested does not have the right to become a mentor to his ward. Another Cybertronian must become a mentor to the Cyberformed, so that the integration goes more smoothly and no one rushes things. In fact, a person must receive all the knowledge regarding the cultural context, communication, traditions, etc. during the adaptation process (including so that he knows what Amica Endura and Conjunx Endura are and the corresponding rituals). Only with this necessary knowledge for the former person, the couple can reunite later. This is done specifically so that there are no incidents, misunderstandings or culture shock. Well, and so that the Cyberformed is prepared for what to expect and how to properly respond to his lover.
And yes, in my AU there are such canon pairs, they include: – Optimus Prime x Cade Yeager – Chase x Charlie Burns – Mirage x Noah Diaz – Tracks x Raoul You may have your own view on the pairings, but these are the ones that I will probably mention periodically in my posts.

“Hi Russell, where are you going?“ I think it will be an interesting battle. Russell ruined Steeljaw plans many times.
I passed the exams!✨💖 I'm alive! I'm back! And I am preparing something special for you! But for now hold the Overlord.
Here is the art whose spoiler I showed. Why Raf and Soundwave? Probably because it occurred to me a great idea to draw two signalmen (and in a sense rivals in a mental battle) on one art. (And I also had a lot of problems with Sound, so I should draw the canon of characters more often.)😢
I painted Sealand again, but this time surrounded by flowers! I like to watch anime and read manga. Of course, the rare appearance of Peter as the main character makes me happy, because he was always close to me in spirit!
He is so emotional! His hands look like hands Iida!!! 😲

Hi Jaden! (Thanks for the question, and thanks again for waiting).
Unfortunately not. In fact, this question is more complex, because it has root causes and consequences for cyberformed humans. The thing is, initially, !originally!. The Cybertronians assumed that when human society becomes more progressive, the cyberformed will be able to communicate with their loved ones, family members and friends again. They conducted some negotiations to prepare the loved ones and relatives of the cyberformed and reveal this secret to them. However, this was met with resistance from the human side. The human government was righteously indignant that this creates major risks for disclosure to the public, that the union will be destroyed and the Cybertronians will not be welcome and it will not matter whether it is a Decepticon or an Autobot.
And it's not just that it was objectively really difficult, during that time a decent number of people had gathered who would have to be enlightened on the topic of cyberformation. And the fact that the human government had its own selfish thoughts and plans, which they did not seek to tell their alien guests. It was decided to isolate the cyberformed from human society, yes, at first they were still people in the eyes of the agents, but this did not last very long. The more time passed, the more agents changed. Those who initially knew that this or that mech was once a person became fewer and fewer. In addition, in order to reduce intimacy, agents were periodically changed, sent on vacation and returned. The human government created strict regulations for communication with former people in order to deliberately distance people from them mentally. (According to the principle that has been in effect for a long time "They are not us, and therefore enemies").
When a unit with secret agents was created, and every former human disappeared from the databases, the global network, they simply deleted them from "reality". "Are you human? Where is this proven? What, what data? There is none" - the government will say about what was stored on Diego Garcia or Deception, the world would simply recognize it as a fake. Cyberformed became a government secret, a trump card that could be used and, admittedly, they were good enough to hide their intentions behind one or another trick. Since all the data was mainly stored in paper form, this went past the optics of the Cybertronians and the thoughts of cyberformed people. The government's plans were to turn former humans into weapons (more on this in the next part of the lore).
Just imagine how one of the cyberformed people looks at his servos. And in his processor a ton of thoughts swarms "what is going on?" Why do former relatives of his species reject him, why can't he communicate with former friends. The loss of this contact is terrifying, so it is not surprising that cyberformed cling to each other and have extremely close bonds. No one wants to be alone… Humans and Cybertronians are social species, we need communication to live a full life!
Yeah… The next parts of the lore will be filled with angst. Hold on tight guys.
hehehehe
