** Soundwave gives Whitley a brutal example of this trope when Weiss, Dreadwing, and Soundwave run into him again at the Schnee estate after Whitley decided to mock Soundwave's past

* WoundThatWillNotHeal: Dreadwing has an Atlesian implant on his chest that uses his Aura to seal and eventually heal the wound over his heart lest it kill him again.

* NoTrueScotsman: Adam has this attitude towards Predaking after [[DramaticallyMissingThePoint misunderstanding Predaking's rejection of his offer to join the White Fang as him saying that he was a human bioweapon to be used agains the Faunus.]] This leads to him attempting to tarnish Predaking's reputation among the residents of Menagerie alongside the Corsac brothers by framing him as a "false Faunus".

* NoTrueScotsman: Adam has this attitude towards Predaking after [[DramaticallyMissingThePoint misunderstanding Predaking's rejection of his offer to join the White Fang as him saying that he was a human bioweapon to be used agains the Faunus.]] It comes to bite him back in the ass ''hard''.

* BroodingBoyGentleGirl: Ruby and Soundwave have this dynamic

--> Soundwave(to Whitley): "YOU... Don't know... HIDDEN HERE... as if you're special... NO ONE... is... DISPOSABLE... I... FIGHT FOR OTHERS... to... HELP OTHERS... FOR... them... FIGHT... instead of... LOWER... YOURSELF... to... THROWN YOUR LIFE... for... PATHETIC REASON AS... you think... TRUE POWER... is... how you live... or your caste... alone. The only... ANIMAL... I see... before me... is you... Alone... in a hollow place that you inherited instead of making for yourself. If you truly see this as the height of your so-called power... Then you truly are... PITIFUL..."

--> Soundwave(to Whitley): "YOU... Don't know.. HIDDEN HERE... as if you're special... NO ONE... is... DISPOSABLE... I... FIGHT FOR OTHERS... to... HELP OTHERS... FOR... them... FIGHT... instead of... LOWER... YOURSELF... to... THROWN YOUR LIFE... for... PATHETIC REASON AS... you think... TRUE POWER... is... how you live... or your caste... alone. The only... ANIMAL...

* BewareTheQuietOnes: Soundwave is this given his status in Transformers canon. Virtually silent? Check. Deadly combatant? You bet. Dreadwing even name-drops the trope after witnessing Soundwave tear apart Whitley with his brutal TheReasonYouSuck speech

** Soundwave gives Whitley a particularly brutal one when the team runs into him again

* BewareTheQuietOnes: Soundwave is this given his status in Transformers canon. Virtually silent? Check. Deadly combatant? You bet.

* DeadpanSnarker: Megatron does have his moments sometimes

* MachoMasochism: If Megatron slicing off his own arm and cauterizing the stump singlehandedly as well as refusing anesthetics for the procedure to attach his new cybernetic arm is an indication

* CurbStompBattle: The ex-Decepticons deliver this to Ace Ops. To quote Soundwave, "Cybertronians superior, Ace Ops inferior."

* AnArmAndALeg: Megatron inflicts this on himself by slicing off his own left arm to better understand Yang's predicament. [[spoiler:He gets a cybernetic courtesy of Atla to replace that arm.]]

* WalkingArsenal: Megatron's Semblance allows him to access all the weapons he used as a thrall to Unicron

[[https://www.fanfiction.net/u/1070668/twilightnite13 twilightnite12]], who worked alongside RyuJudge6614 in writing the story, has written ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13048863/1/Transformers-RWBY-The-Light-of-Hope Transformers RWBY: The Light of Hope]]'' as a tie-in centered around Predaking and Dreadwing as they meet Weiss and Blake set before their run-ins with Yang and Megatron. ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13796280/1/Transformers-RWBY-The-Flames-That-Could-Have-Been Transfomers RWBY: The Flames That Could Have Been]]'' by [[https://www.fanfiction.net/u/13686571/ZeroTheOne ZeroTheOne]] has the Decepticons and Team RWBY transported to another dimension to react to the events of the original fic

* WoundThatWillNotHeal: Dreadwing still retains the fatal wound he received from Megatron in his human form, and the only thing that's keeping it from opening and killing him is an implant made by Atlas to plug and close it.

* Main/BFG: Megatron's armor-mounted fusion cannon is this, and his Semblance allows him to summon even larger cannons out of thin air

** Soundwave gives Whitley a particularly brutal one

* WhatIsThisFeeling: Megatron is not completely used to having human emotions given that he was a literal alien robotic warlord hell-bent on conquest, so he is understandably ambivalent about them

* WalkingArsenal: Megatron's Semblance allows him to access all the weapons he used as a thrall to Unicron

* BewareTheQuietOnes: Soundwave is this. Virtually silent? Check. Deadly combatant? You bet.

* CoveredInScars: Megatron's body is heavily scarred from his numerous battles in his past
* JerkassHasAPoint:

* BewareTheQuietOnes: Soundwave is obviously this given his combat experience and lethality

** Soundwave gives Whitley a particularly brutal one
