Good character development. It should show how Ultra Magnus and Rodimus grow throughout the story, whether it's in their relationship or as individuals.
The fanfiction might be set in a post - war scenario. Ultra Magnus and Rodimus could be working towards rebuilding their world. There could be political intrigue as they try to re - establish order, with different factions having different ideas on how to move forward. And their friendship or partnership could be a key factor in uniting the Transformers during this difficult time.
One common theme is loyalty. Both Optimus Prime and Ultra Magnus are known for their loyalty to the Autobot cause. In fanfiction, this can be explored further, like in a situation where their loyalty is tested. Another theme could be leadership. How they lead the Autobots together or in different scenarios. For example, they might face a difficult decision on whether to sacrifice a small group for the greater good of all Autobots. And there's also the theme of friendship. Their relationship as comrades can be deepened in fanfiction, showing how they support each other through tough times.
Writers develop their relationship through shared challenges. For example, when they are on a mission to rescue captured Autobots. This forces them to rely on each other and builds trust. Another way is through dialogue. Meaningful conversations about their beliefs, goals, and fears can deepen their connection. Writers might also use flashbacks to show how their relationship has evolved over time, like an incident in their past that first brought them together.
He might interact with it in a curious way at first, not fully understanding its danger. For example, he could be drawn to it because of its mysterious properties.
Well, it combines the unique world of Transformers Energon with the yaoi genre. It gives a different perspective on the relationships between the characters, often exploring emotional and romantic aspects that are not typically the focus in the mainstream Transformers storylines.
Some fanfictions might explore the origin of Dark Energon in relation to Raf. Perhaps there are hidden secrets about Raf's past that are somehow connected to the Dark Energon. This could lead to a whole new adventure where Raf has to discover his true identity while dealing with the perils of Dark Energon.
There could be a fanfiction where Starscream discovers an ancient stash of Dark Energon. He tries to keep it a secret from the other Decepticons, especially Megatron, as he plans to use it to his own advantage. But as he experiments with it, strange things start to happen to him, like visions of a long - lost Cybertronian past.
Ahriman is an important character. He is one of Magnus's lieutenants and plays a significant role in the legion's affairs. The Emperor also features prominently as Magnus's father and the overarching authority in the Imperium. There are also other Space Marines in Magnus's legion who are part of the story.
