Hmm, so back to a previous post, you're saying that most Autobots are basically on morality auto-pilot, so if you remove one level of that auto-pilot, they turn into jerks, because they've never really sat down and thought out their morals, because they just rely on the auto-pilot to do it for them? But someone like Wheeljack, who thinks a lot about morality and ethics and develop a consistent internal morality and follow it?
(That makes moral Decepticons a bit more impressive than moral Autobots, since a Decepticon would really have to work at it the hard way.)
How does your Wheeljack's fierce love of choice fit in with the Dominator Discs?
How is Skyfire set up?
I have to say, as a general comment, that I found the Autobot bits in this fic the most interesting and was a lot less interested in the Decepticon parts, which is odd, given how the Decepticons are essentially the stars of this 'series' you were writing.
Personally, I've written Kup as someone who was built without emotional dampners by mistake, like Slag, so he's got that constant internal struggle to keep himself from just beating the slag out of things. Kind of ties in nicely with how Kup can get self-recriminating sometimes (see his guilt in 'Chaos') and also with how he burned out. Kup's hit quite a few 4 million year marks by now, which means multiple berserker flip-outs.
