""Your recent Insecticons writing has an excellent idea and creative turn. I can see that happening in Shockwave's experiments. Although, I am curious to know, what if the chosen "queen" (vehicon) starts to show signs of mutations?"" (Asked by anon on tumblr) 
 

Ohoo, a very interesting prospect!

It is not a stretch to think that close contact with Insecticons could lead to some odd mutations - it was in fact a planned feature of my ‘A new Queen’ story.

It is a personal headcanon of mine that in a world where transformers can naturally procreate, their nanites are capable of heavy modifications to the natural frame over time. It would also be an explanation as to how a Cybertronian could ‘grow’ to a different alt mode, as opposed to getting surgery to have necessary parts and then scanning the relevant vehicle. It is a simple matter of reprogramming the nanites in the frame, so that instead of doing upkeep on the frame, they start reforming in the frame.

It would probably take a while for mutations to happen to our vehicon. A lot of time spent sharing food, living space and habits with the Insecticons, but our Vehicon friend does not have the luxury of being left alone.
Shockwave is specifially creating a control module for Megatron to use so he can control the Insecticons. I doubt that Megatron would like sharing his berth with a hive full of Insecticons and being groomed and fed, so the project is far from over.

The mutations in question would depend on the nanites fed to the Queen vehicon. If all was left up to ‘nature’, than a focus would be put on the vehicon’s gestational chamber and reproduction capabilities. Perhaps with some added spikes and an ability to eat raw energon with small mandibles ;)
