I read this fanfic last night: https://archiveofourown.org/works/61485838?view_adult=true

I drew a scene I found really amusing

[kingghoost]

Ever thought about the possibility that the synth-en never change the streght of Who It infect, instead Just altered the way of thinking and state of mind of the people Who use It, meaning that technically Ratchet Is that strong, and could most likely overpower Bulkhead if he wanted tò, but Just never aknolege that streght cause of the war and reducing he himself tò "Just a medic".

(This Is Just an headcanon, Sorry if my english Is bad.)

Ooooh, that's certainly interesting to think about!

If it were the case, it could be that Ratchet never uses that strength because he has more pressing matters (like keeping the team alive) Therefore underestimating himself in the process.

Back in the earlier times of the war, they'd have to have more than one medic in the Autobots. That probably allowed Ratchet to be able to fight more. I'm imagining a scenario where he's treating a bot in the field, then gets ambushed by, like, 5 Decepticons, only for Ratchet to take them all with his hand-blades... *swoon*

It's not even that unlikely of a theory, as Ratchet was holding out pretty well when he was fighting the Terrorcons with Optimus.

It could be that with his growing age and the fact that he's the only medic of their team left (therefore must stick to that role) That he forgot he could even do any of that, or maybe that he assumes he's gotten "rusty." It's not like he has many chances to prove himself since he's always stuck in the base... He probably doesn't have much free time to spar with anyone, too.

Even without Synth-En, Ratchet always had this "fighting spirit" within, likely because of his headstrong personality. (ex. Wanting to fight Megatron when he got kidnapped, knowing full well he was at an extreme disadvantage) It's interesting to think on how he must feel about having a more "standby" role.

Quickly analyzing a one-off line from The Optiratch Argument™ because I'm bored

We all know that The Argument™ was mainly about Ratchet's frustrations with Optimus' "cowardice" (BIG quotation marks) but one of Ratchet's lines really stuck with me:

"Oh- and let me guess, I'm just the medic." (TFP S1E22)

Typically when people are angry, they don't vent about just one thing. Though he was talking back to what Optimus said about the Vehicon being a miner and not a warrior, that comment seemed completely irrelevant to the argument's main topic (at least in my point of view)

One big (yet hidden) flaw in Ratchet is his lack of self confidence. His job is to cure the sick and injured, yet he never really seems to realize the value he has on his team. He truly is great at what he does - and he goes above and beyond to be of service (medic, scientist, sort of engineer... that's impressive!) Despite all this, the fact that he is the only non-fighter really seems to eat at him. His main whereabouts most of the time being in the base makes it worse paired with the fact that he seems to be the most eager to jump and "get things done." Their numbers are already small, so he feels that anything he could do isn't enough to overthrow an entire military.

By saying "Just the medic," it implies that he determines his self worth by his rank. In his eyes, he is "just" the medic. Not a great warrior that overpowers the enemy and saves his comrades, but a doctor forced to sit by and wait for his teammates to return with fresh new injuries, dead or alive.

"-Help us, we know. But you nearly caused the loss of something.. Irreplaceable. Our medic, and our most trusted friend." (TFP S1E22)

Now Optimus, on the other hand, does acknowledge what Ratchet has to give to the team, most importantly Ratchet's worth as an individual. He knows what lengths Ratchet goes to save his comrades (and, most of the time, himself) from the brink of death, he knows what a genius his old friend is for being able to conduct such intricate research with limited supplies - Hell, he knows that Ratchet built some of those supplies himself.

Learning about how Ratchet thinks so lowly of himself must've been shocking, to witness the one closest to you feel the need to experiment on himself with untested material in the hopes of being "useful" ... I think it broke Optimus' heart a little, not to mention how he was already hurt by Ratchet's rant.

Though the episode ended with things working out in the end, I really like the idea of The Argument™ making a huge mess out of both of them. At that moment they were fine and made up, but what they said/learned about each other that day will never quite leave them.

Waking up in a cold sweat, I suddenly remembered I forgot to work on my gijinkas...

Here is the Optimus I just finished!! Now I can finally draw them kissing ^^;

As I gave Ratchet a nationality, this Optimus is Native American! 💞 (If anyone's curious on which tribe, I was thinking of Cree..)

Optimus (aka Orion) used to have super long hair, but she shaved it in grief after Cybertron perished.

Maybe I'll make a Megatron next!! 🤔🤔 (In a millenia, probably....)

working on some optimus & ratchet gijinkas in my free time (rough sketches) and honestly it's so hard 😭😭

Their designs are beautiful but so hard to translate into clothes... I want to give them cool outfits tho

Maybe when I have something good down i'll post it? It won't be a polished drawing, though...
