What Strength Really Means 💪

✅️ Vetted by @gazavetters {537} ✅️

Hey everyone, my name is Abdelmajed. I don’t usually talk much about myself, but today, I want to share a little piece of my story.

I was born and raised in Gaza, a place that has always been my home 🏡. I grew up surrounded by my family, my friends, and the streets that I knew like the back of my hand. Life wasn’t always easy, but we had love, laughter, and dreams. I used to think that no matter what happened, home would always be here. But life has a way of changing things in ways we never expect.

Over the past months, everything I once knew has disappeared. The streets that were once filled with children playing are now silent. The houses that held so many memories are now just rubble. And the people I loved—some of them are gone forever. 💔

A Future Beyond War Starts With You 💙

My name is Naser, and war has taken everything from me—my mother, my sister, my home, and the life I once knew. In an instant, my world was shattered, leaving behind nothing but memories and the weight of loss.

But even in the darkest moments, I refuse to give up. Because amidst the pain, I still have something worth fighting for—my three younger brothers.

🔹 One dreams of becoming a doctor, to heal others so they don’t have to endure the pain we’ve faced.

🔹 Another aspires to be an engineer, hoping to one day rebuild what war has destroyed.

🔹 And the youngest? He doesn’t have big dreams yet—he just wants to be a kid again, to wake up in a home that feels safe, to play without fear.

🏡 We Need a Home. We Need Education. We Need Hope.

Right now, we are not just fighting for survival—we are fighting for the chance to live, to grow, to dream again. We are fighting for a future where my brothers can become the doctor, the engineer, the child who gets to have a childhood.

💙 This is where you come in.

I’m not asking for much—just a chance. A chance to rebuild, to give my brothers a future beyond war.

Your support, whether through a donation or simply sharing our story, can make all the difference. Even the smallest act of kindness can create ripples of change.

🙏 Will you help us rebuild?

Together, we can prove that war doesn’t get the final word—hope does. Thank you for standing with us. 💙✨

I forget the episode name but it's the reunion episode between bee and breakdown where BD sacrifices himself for bee to be able to get away from ghost. Would bee be on the run now with marble in tow? I could see it as their chance to really get closer and understand each other for once when it's bee now being her primary caretaker

HELLO, perfect timing!!! short answer: YES!! just answered an ask about this and i do have a little something in the works for it!

[roddity]

I think it’d be funny if the whole tense relationship between Bee and Marble got resolved like in a typical road trip movie (though it would be super chaotic if the reason for the trip was that they’re looking for Breakdown after “Security Protocols”👀).

ANON I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHERE TO START. You ruined me. the level of neuron activation from this single paragraph is UNPARALLELED. I love you and your suggestion but also consider: buddy cop duo bumblebee and marble trying to find where grimlock is together. marble has nobody else to turn to after breakdown is captured and obviously bee has to take her in even though he's on the run. cue the shenanigans.

bumblebee "only slightly experienced with child rearing" vs marble "uhm what do you mean that x isn't normal. it sure is to me!" god it could be so good...

[roddity]

Lmaoo can you imagine the decepticons reaction to breakdown telling them he knocked up bumblebee, I feel like they would be mortified and surprised at the same time!

Side note if marble grew up with the decepticons would soundwave and breakdown ever organize little play dates between marble and the cassettes?

LMFAO marble's an open secret sorta situation! like breakdown never announces hes got a kid but come post-war there's rumours that he's got a sparkling following him and uhh hey wait a minute they kinda look like bumblebee?! massive side eye. we know what you are. post security protocols, breakdown gets tossed into the GHOST cell and instantly EVERYONE starts ragging on him for it. he is never beating the allegations.

play dates, hmm! i think that'd be super cute. all things considered, laserbeak/frenzy seem the type to go bother whoever whenever they want and marble is fun to pick on as the wee baby (she's trigger happy with her caution lights), so play dates wouldn't need to be organised. breakdown's probably liable to just dump marble onto them when he wants alone time anyway lol 💔

if its anything, i think that soundwave, in his interest in keeping his cassettes in line, might be pretty attentive to marble! i do love the thought of him getting attached and beginning to ask about how she is hehehe

[roddity]

got a bit more progress done on this piece! i am going to die doing the background (i took so many screenshots and tried to line them up with the plan for the bg so many freaking times, AH)

[roddity]

I was just curious— who gave birth to marble ? This is such a random question, it's a need for me to know who's the sire and carrier 💔💔💔

You're all good, anon! Bumblebee's the carrier, Breakdown's the sire. Very run of the mill :P

[roddity]

i can only imagine optimus’ and megatrons reaction to THE autobot golden boy committing fraternization of the worst degree 😭

wholly unsurprised but supportive of bee despite that :]

I have many questions haha, but one of them is, what exactly happens in this story? What happened between Bee and her daughter? and especially with Breakdown. I'm new to tumblur 😅Sorry if you don't understand something I say, I speak Spanish and I can help myself with a translator 😭😫

you're fine! it's a good question, because i don't really know either HAHA. i'm still figuring it out, so it might change later x)

what i've got so far:

bumblebee and breakdown conceive marble by accident some time around the end of the war

because the autobots need a hidden agent to keep an eye on GHOST's activities + bumblebee being sparked is potentially dangerous information, bumblebee is chosen to go into hiding

for the next couple months, bumblebee mysteriously falls ill and can barely appear in public, but nobody other than autobot high command and breakdown know why.

bumblebee has marble (named for her size and other puns). the autobots fake bumblebee's death with a dead body and all. breakdown is under the impression bee died due to the pregnancy.

to sell the idea that bumblebee is dead and to get marble further away from GHOST, they strike an offer with breakdown: either he takes marble and raises her, or marble stays with the autobots and is raised alongside humans. believing that the autobots failed bumblebee, breakdown takes marble.

time skip a couple years!

breakdown and marble live on the run together. breakdown isn't a great father, but he and marble have a good relationship.

bumblebee has been in hiding and is trying very hard to communicate with breakdown. but due to his mission with GHOST, he either doesn't know where breakdown is or can't keep up with him. breakdown is also grieving, so any signals bumblebee tries to send get dismissed as hallucinations or whatever.

when marble is around 4-ish mentally, they all reunite. this is still way before earthspark s1. however, due to both parents' situation and history, breakdown and bumblebee stay separate.

and to explain marble's tense relationship with bee:

growing up, she REALLY liked the idea of bumblebee as this magical hero character. but when he came back and was still separated by his work with the autobots (group she believes ruined her family), her impression of him worsened. bumblebee also has a lot of guilt surrounding leaving marble and is awkward around her, which makes marble think that bee kind of hates her lol. she's still a fan, but it's, uh, weird because he's alive and different.

i'm still a little iffy on some of this, but that's the idea of it. i hope it's not too confusing! thank you for being so interested in my little au :'D

Gaza without bread .. The sector's bakeries were closed all of the day .. The remaining flour is not enough for more than a week, and the sack of flour if its price is exceeded 60 dollars ..

I swear to you that Gaza is hungry, and the remaining food stocks are not enough for the maximum of more than ten days and will completely end .. What do you expect after that from a people who kill around the clock and now hunger?! God does not forgive those who brought us here, God does not forgive those who have the ability to stop this genocide and did not.

Please, if you can't donate and help us, speak up. At least your voice might be heard. Donate from here if you can.

🌍✨ A Voice from Gaza: Fighting for Hope ❤️‍🩹

Hi, my name is Mosab , and I’m from Gaza. Life here has been harder than I could ever imagine, but today I’m sharing my story with hope in my heart, because your kindness has already given us so much strength.

This journey hasn’t been easy. The war has taken 25 family members from us—25 beautiful souls we loved deeply. Their laughter, their presence, their love… all of it is gone, leaving behind memories that are both precious and painful. Every day, I carry the weight of their loss, but I also carry their spirit, which gives me the strength to keep going.

Our Journey So Far

When I first reached out, I couldn’t have imagined we’d make it this far. Your support has been a light in these difficult times, and we are so deeply grateful for every single contribution.

But the road ahead is still challenging. Every day, we’re reminded of how much we’ve lost and how much we still need to rebuild.

Here’s what life in Gaza looks like for my family right now:

🏠 Safety: The uncertainty of tomorrow weighs heavily on us.

😢 Loss: The absence of the 25 family members we’ve lost is a pain we carry every moment.

💔 Dreams on Hold: The future feels so far away when survival takes all our strength.

How You Can Help Us Cross the Finish Line Even the smallest act of kindness can make a difference:

$5 may seem small, but for us, it’s a little relief, a moment of comfort, and a reminder that kindness still exists. ❤️

Can’t donate? Reblog this post to help us reach someone who can. Every share matters more than you know.

Why Your Support Matters Your kindness isn’t just about helping us meet our goal—it’s about reminding us that we’re not alone in this fight. It’s about hope. It’s about survival. And it’s about giving my family a chance to rebuild our lives, even in the face of unimaginable loss.

Thank you for helping us get this far. Your generosity and compassion have already brought us closer to a better tomorrow, and for that, I’m endlessly grateful.

With all my love and gratitude,

Mosab and Family ❤️

I feel like, of all the terrans, twitch would have the best shot at trying to get through to marble regarding bee given how much twitch has been shown to care and worry about him. Sure marble is older than her but given how cybertronians seem to age slowly they’re probably not far off from each other mentally since she and the terrans got to hit skip on the baby phase. Breakdown could only tell marble stories of what bee was like back then but twitch can tell her more recent stories from a similar perspective that marble might have had if she’d been there herself and maybe help reconcile the bee she was told about and who bee really is in her mind. I briefly wondered if marble might be jealous of the terrans in thinking they were (involuntary) replacements for her but they definitely have more of a sibling relationship- that notion could probably be tossed away in watching the Terrans interact with their human parents and recognizing it for how breakdown acts with her.

yess the terrans and marble are all roughly in the same 'age group' despite her being physically older lol :P i like imagining they're all friendly with each other.

bumblebee, while she likes him, is somewhat of a stranger to her - and she's okay with that, mostly! she's familiar with how earth family dynamics work to a degree, and already knows that the terrans aren't really replacements for her, but she can't help and feel bitter that they just happened to be in a position that 'works' for their family and bumblebee.

talking about her dad in this scenario would probably cause her to go like, "okay, so? the autobot sign on his chest tells me half of what i need to know already." and then it's back to square one 😔

(i think twitch and marble would get along great! they have a lot of similarities but they definitely argue a lot lol)
