The remaining percentages are,
8%: A long time ago she was a cocky ass who fucked up on her first delivery as a midwife and killed the baby. And she was so torn up about it that she framed herself for a, frankly not even that major, crime and exiled herself from Caminus.
1%: She and her girlfriend are trans, but in a way which, unlike Arcee, didn’t at all involve unethical Jihaxus experiments or going violently insane as a result of said experiments.
And 1%: Somehow having been born on Cybertron, leaving, discovering, and settling on the lost colony world Caminus, only to then later flee Caminus thousands of years ago. All without ever alerting either world to the location or status of the other. Because someone rather obviously fucked-up somewhere along the line and needed to crudely patch her continuity to make conflicting parts of her still backstory work.
She’s essentially Swerve, but without any of the many moments that show him to ultimately be a good person, and without the fact that most of the crew is actually shown to be at least begrudgingly fond of him.
