Summary
It turns out that being wired into giant war machines doesn’t play nice with human brains. The Earth Mechanical Defense Force, or EMDF, learned that the hard way when their pilots started going… neurotic, let’s say, after a few missions.
The obvious solution to that problem was to simply wire the pilot into their mecha permanently, that way their mind wasn’t being strained by the constant in and out. Unfortunately that strategy backfired and the pilots started going neurotic much, much faster, and this time they were giant and made of metal and much harder to put down.
So, the obvious next step would be to pull the plug on that idea and go back to the drawing board, right? No, that’s ridiculous, the next step was obviously to simply…
Make the mecha forget they’d ever been human in the first place.
Somewhere along the line someone should have pulled the plug, but they’d already invested so much into the project, and you know what they say about sunk cost fallacy.

Summary
The newcomer was a spy, Prowl was certain of it. But he didn't tell anyone. Not yet. Call it a social experiment to see how many of his fellows noticed. All while he let the new recruit poke around, just to see what would happen.
He always did love new data.

Summary
While journeying with Knight Ultra Magnus in search of a wayward Wheeljack, pages Hot Rod and Bumblebee finally stumble across something big and terribly exciting in the otherwise boring trip.
...What? Was Hot Rod scared? Psh. No he wasn't. It wasn't like that big and terribly exciting thing has teeth longer than his whole arm or anything. Certainly nothing Ultra Magnus and Jazz can't handle. All they're doing is talking to it anyway.

Summary
In a mostly canon compliant AU, one major supernatural difference affects the course of the war. Demons can be summoned with the right knowhow and materials, though not without great risk to the summoner and those around them.
Prowl has lost faith in the ability of the Autobots to end the Civil War in a timely manner. He takes things into his own servos and summons a demon to enact his more ethically dubious plans, confident in his ability to manage whatever demon may appear without any danger to himself.
Jazz, the demon he summoned, is willing to let him think that, and is going to play along. For now.
