Description Commission by

One of my Seekers, Shimmerfire. Her carrier was a Neutral Seeker, but her sire was a grounder. So legally and by coding, she's Seeker, but socially she's something of an outcast.

Thank you. I keep trying to find a spot for her in more stories but a wartime-created Neutral is hard to fit in.

I'm assuming she survived the war? So, just thrust her into a new situation against her will and force her to do what she hates, which is choosing sides.

In her existing appearance she did survive the war and nominally chose a side in bowing to Prime. If pressed she'd go Autobot (for a bunch of reasons) with only limited fuss and about as well-controlled by command as Sunny/Sides are. By rights she'd get herself killed in short order going up against any of the experienced seekers the Cons have. Not a fate I'm fond of for her.

The larger issue is that other than the story she was created in I write very little that's post war and even less that's OC centric. Where I want to put her (and still may) requires enough reworking of her past I haven't done it yet. Lazy writer issues. I'll keep poking at it until something jells. It's just how I create OCs. It also seems that the more art I get of one (thus the more I'm emotionally invested in them) the less I write them. Which is something that doesn't even make sense to me and it's my head.

It's nice to know you like her. I keep eyeing your commission openings with her (and Stormshock) in mind. Timing just hasn't lined up yet.

Yeah, her design is awesome. 

I have tons of ideas for Burnout that I never started fleshing out, but as I'm getting older, I'm beginning to realize that time is not a luxury we can take for granted, so I'll probably start working on some new fanfics in the next year, as well as possibly doing a short mini-series.
