Title: Mythbusters: Autobot Security
Author: RosieKnight
Rating: G
Disclaimer: The Mythbusters belong to themselves. The Transformers are Hasbro's.
Series: See note.

Note: This takes place within [livejournal.com profile] l_shades's "Communique"-verse, as well as [livejournal.com profile] drharper's and mine "Tribute"-verse. It follows this snippet.



"Alright, we've been asked to provide security for Spike and Carly's wedding. I want a list of all the possible threats to the wedding, and we'll make plans to deal with each one. Adam?"

"The Autopians."

"The Autobot worshiping loonies?"

"Yup. They're actually a threat in a couple of different ways. One, they can inadvertently disrupt the ceremony by playing those 'worship anthems' they're so fond of. The anthems are the Cybertronian equivalent to nails on a chalkboard, so there'd be a lot of wedding attendees in pain. And, they're likely to make some new anthems in celebration of this 'holy' event."

"So, we should look into some radio jammers or something similar."

"Or just getting them temporarily banned from the Mount St. Hilary region. It'd also prevent the second potential problem."

"Oh?"

"Yup. Some of the Autopians - mostly female members, but some males as well - believe Carly to be a 'Decepticon temptress in human form' sent to 'bring forth ruin upon the Chosen Ones' by various means. I've heard claims ranging from luring him away from the Autobots to raising Spike's child to kill him."

"Adam, how do you know all this?"

"I... acquired some of the worst of the 'worship anthems' for use during our trip to Cybertron and got several lectures on their beliefs by the Autopians."

"Ah. Scary stuff.

"Very scary. I suggest we ban the Autopians from the area for a week or two before the wedding and a day or two after it. I'd also suggest having Red Alert do background checks on all of the people attending - guests, waiters, busboys, florists, and everyone else - and make sure the people who attend match the information gathered. We don't want some nutcase sneaking in by impersonating 'Jane Doe - sane person' or something."

"Ok. Adam, can you pass your suggestions on to Red Alert?"

"Sure, Jamie."

"Next problem."

"Carly's mother."

"Explain please, Kari."

"Carly's mother isn't happy with Carly marrying Spike. She strikes me as the type of person who'd protest during the 'speak now, or forever hold your peace' bit, just to keep Carly from marrying someone who is supposedly her social inferior. From what I've heard about her, it would also fit her style to disrupt the wedding."

"Whoo boy. That's one difficult problem."

"Fortunately, I have some ideas. I suggest seating her by Steve Rogers, Tony Stark, Nana Caroline, and maybe James Bond. If those four can't keep her in line, not much will. The back-up plan is to rig a small, remote controlled, tranquilizer dart. We can hide it in the corsage and trigger it if it looks like she's getting ready to protest."

"Ok. I want you to work with Carly and Spike on the seating arrangements. Grant and I will work on the corsage tranquilizer with Ratchet and First Aide."

"My turn! Ok, the Decepticons are still a threat to the gathering. The installation of the chicken gun and the air cannon are proceeding nicely. There's plenty of frozen chicken for the chicken gun, and I'm working with the Twins and Wheeljack to make lots of anti-Seeker paintballs and solid metal cannonballs. I'm also thinking about rigging the mirrors from the Archimedes Death Ray to swivel, so we can temporarily blind our targets. Omega Supreme has agreed to take gestalt duty and I'm still working on ground defenses. It's a lower priority, since most Decepticons fly."

"Talk with Prime and Red Alert about the ground defenses. See what they already have in place and figure out what we can add."

"Don't forget to talk to Hound and Trailbreaker. They know the land around the Ark the best and can suggest places to install our security."

"Right. Thanks guys."

"Grant."

"Unicron."

"Who?"

"Unicron, the devourer of worlds. He's the god or demon of evil, chaos, and darkness in the Cybertronian religion. He's also real."

"......So how are we supposed to fight a god? Don't tell me you have a working Death Star from your time at LucasFilm."

"We're not. I already did the only thing we could do. I invited Primus, Unicron's counterpart, to the wedding. I cleared it with Spike and Carly, first. And, no I don't have a working Death Star. Maybe 'Jack can fix that...."

"No, Grant. Now that we've got our plans laid out, let's get to work!"

End.

Not yet.

I didn't see a spot for "screen name" on the form and I really don't want to use my actual name as an screen name.

(My last name isn't very common, you see.)

I love it! *rolling on the floor*

...They're gonna need a really big chair for Primus. And halfway through the ceremony Carly's mother will fall over thud and no one will know why. XD

Unless Primus has a holoform, yes they will.

*snickers* Oh, they'll know why. They'll just let her sleep for a bit.

*giggles* I'd love to hear the conversation between him and the pastor.

She'll sit bolt upright a few hours later and scream "I object!" Of course, no one will hear her over all the stomping around from the Autobots doing the Electric Slide. ;D

Primus: *mildly* I'll probably congratulate him on the ceremony. I'm not his god, so I see no reason to start a religious debate with the man. (Hopefully, the Autobots and Decepticons will see it the same way....)

Exactly! (Though, they might be doing the Conga by then....)

Primus: I'll trade you. You tell me about your religion - and Earth religions in general - and I'll tell you about Cybertronian religion. All right?

I think you're thinking of the bunny hop. (Left foot, left foot, right foot, right foot, forwards, backwards, hop, hop, hop.)

I'll still remind you, though.

*grins* Wouldn't you want superheros at your big party?

Who better to keep Unicron in line? (And Primus doesn't get invited to many parties.)

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it.

Now I'm picturing Unicron sulking because Primus got an invite and he didn't. ;)

Oh, he's got an invite.

"If you don't eat any planets in our stellar system, don't start fighting with Primus, keep Nemesis in line, don't use your mental powers on anyone, don't curse anyone, leave the rest of us some food, don't cause trouble and don't "upgrade" anyone *cough*Megatron*cough*, you're welcome to come. - Spike and Carly"

Primus: You can still do the YMCA. That's all arm movements, really. (And one of your Indian colleagues is also a Lord Of Dance, I believe. I must do further research in to this "Hinduism".)

Primus: See, you can still have a good time. (Word of warning - the human group "The MythBusters" and the Autobot Wheeljack are both known for causing explosions. You might want to avoid them...)

Primus: Hmmm.... Now I need to find a date... (Apollo - no, he's still upset that I'm shinier than him. Artemis - no, she's still crushing on Orion the Hunter. Back to my "little" black book, then.)

*grins* I'm glad you like the story.

As for writing out the wedding and accompanying chaos, I believe that [livejournal.com profile] l_shades has dibs on that. "Communique" is the story that inspired both "Tribute" and this one. So, we'll have to see where Shades' wonderful story goes with the wedding first.

Ok?

Yeah, but we haven't had any updates on any of those in FOREVER...

I'm a lurker. That's why you've never heard of me before.

*nods* I know.

I've got a couple ideas for the stories about how Adam determines which anthems are the worst, but no current plans for the wedding at the moment.

Currently, I'm just trying to get a whole bunch of bunnies out of my head and onto paper. Then, I'm hoping to finish up my currently on-going fic, "Skeleton in the Closet", over at [livejournal.com profile] tf2007fun. *grins* Feel free to lurk around my journal, I don't mind.

Hope Grant can talk to 'Jack about making a working Death Star. Imagine the military advantage that sort of thing would bring to the Autobot cause!

*snickers*

Anyway, that's some guest list! I'm tickled pink by the fact that you put Nana Caroline along with the superheroes: as far as I'm (and the 'Bots) are concerned, she's practically a superhero in her own right.

*laughs*

And wow... I didn't know Grant had that sort of clout that he could invite Primus himself to the wedding. Then again, Grant was "raised by robots," so he must be of some note in that respect...

*grins*

No, the Transformers have enough planet destroying problems in Unicron. They don't need another. (And having a working Death Star would only hurt the Autobot cause in the long run. Who would trust a group with a weapon specifically made to destroy planets in their arsenal?)

*nods* Nana Caroline is a hero for dealing with Carly's mother!

*grins* It's not the clout. It's the fact that Grant doesn't know that it's supposed to be impossible to invite Primus. He just sent the invitation to the Autobot forces on Cybertron and asked them to deliver it. (And Primus is pleased as punch to be invited. He hasn't been invited to a party in ages.)

From: [identity profile] autobotvierge.livejournal.com
Hmm, good point on the Death Star...

And I can imagine how pleased Primus must have been to get to go to a party! I don't think he would have received invitations to parties on Cybertron...

*laughs*

*shrugs* It's a variation of a topic for debate in the Star Wars Universe: Should the Rebellion have captured the Death Star instead of destroying it?

*laughs* No, Primus didn't get many. One of the downsides of being embodied as the planet your children live on, I suppose.

*grins*

...Hi. I lurked around on The Padded Cell, saw that you and Epona Harper had come up with more wonderful-ness, and found myself in dire need to comment.

This. Is pure. Win. The whole MythBusters/TF crossover is pure gold from where I'm sitting. Thank you. Thank you for writing it. I do have a few questions, though.

I suggest seating her by Steve Rogers, Tony Stark, Nana Caroline, and maybe James Bond. -- ...How'd they get such good connections...? Or, wait, let me guess -- they tried to bust a superhero myth and it backfired...? What I would really like to know, though, is how they got James Bond to come. Getting a connection to him, then getting him on the guest list sounds like a story in and of itself.

I invited Primus, Unicron's counterpart, to the wedding. -- ....

-squees in giggles-

Talk about a nice touch. Grant, FTW!

I'm looking forward to more insanity. Thank you once more for writing this.

*headdesk* First off, I apologize for taking so long to respond to this. I try to keep more on top of my reviews.

That said, I'm glad you decided to leave a comment.

Thank you! It's a fun series to write, too!

I'll see what answers I can provide.

The superheroes know the Autobots, not the Mythbusters. The Mythbusters are just looking at the guest list, because all of the listed heroes have known civilian identities.

I'm not sure how they got Bond to come.... As a bodyguard for the British Embassador, perhaps?

Grant: *bows* Thank you!

*grins* I hope [livejournal.com profile] drharper and I come up with more soon, too!

You're welcome.

Thank you for reading!
