Raf's Notes

Raf's Notes is a diary are a series of documents from the Prime portion of the Aligned continuity family.

"Dear Diary. I can't shake the feeling the Decepticons are spying on me somehow."

Since becoming involved with the Autobots, Raf Esquivel has felt compelled to start keeping a series of documents on his laptop which he has entitled Raf's Notes. For safety's sake, he keeps them triple-encrypted. It's important to note that these are not a diary of any kind. Diaries are for girls.

Entries

4. Don't Judge a Bot by Its Cover — One of Bulkhead's old friends came to visit, and they had a party. Miko's guitar playing seemed to be getting better, and Raf showed Bumblebee how to do the Robot.

Everyone was bummed. [4]

Notes

• Raf's Notes are a special feature provided on The Hub's website as an addendum to the cartoon. Apparently, they were nice enough to hack into his laptop for the readers.
• Shortly after entries 3 and 4 went up, that section of the site was temporarily delinked from the rest of the site and reworked before it began updating again.
• Throughout Transformers history, only once before has a diary journal diary been used as a storytelling element. This was in The Transformers cartoon, in which Spike kept a diary, though it was ditched after the first few episodes.
