>>5240719I like to imagine that's a mind-broken face after she's been captured by the Decepticons. In my imaination, the Transformers war is something more dark and Arcee is closer to her IDW self(but without the unnecessary transexual parallel). Since female Decepticons are so rare, and since she's more useful as a living prisoner, they decide to keep her around as a morale booster. Eventually, they begin to interrogate her by raping the shit out of her constantly. At first it's just a few prison guard Vehicon grunts. Progressively, her violation gets more and more rough, and her rapists more brutal and savage. Beastial Decepticons, like the TFP Predacons or Ravage are brought in to violate her for her amusement. Eventually she's moved on to bigger, more endowed Decepticons like Lugnut,Astrotrain, Blitzwing, and made part of a mock combiner in an orgy with the decepticon Combiner leaders Onslaught, Motormaster,and Razorclaw. She's given personal sessions with Decepticon high command leaders like Shockwave, Scorponok and eventually Galvatron himself. She's subjected to humiliating, impossible acts like riding on the cocks of impossibly huge bots like Devastator and even Trypticon, who she can only gyrate and grind on. Reflector components are brought in to record the events and send them to Autobots, and broadcast them on pirate airwaves and websites on Earth and cybertron, as well as the their equivalent beyond. Eventually, Arcee gains notoriety for these videos.
after all of this, she's left a shell of her former self, and reverts to a very simplistic, always smiling version of her G1 cartoon self. Her fighting spirit is gone, and she constantly asks for Daniel(who has long since died an early death in a Decepticon attack on earth.)
