Iacon 5000 HC

When the iacon 5000 happens Orion's and b-127's supervisor, megatron, goes down and gives them a few more rations to celebrate him getting a spot on the race.

They take the chance that megs left the door open to sneak into the race and run it. A dream they both had for a long long time.

They take the chance that megs left the door open to sneak into the race and run it. A dream they both had for a long long time.

They don't win, in fact they come in last but just the fact that they ran was enough, the crowd still cheered their names! "you hear that bee? They are cheering our names! They know us! They see us!"

They are still hurt and taken to the infirmary where they get the joy to met sentinel prime and arachnid.

Bee does a little i for dump to orion right then and there about arachnid and what she does

It earns him a little miniscule smile from the spider.

Orion yaps on how they work in lv 50 very hard. And are glad they helped the miners work harder.

Sentinel is a bit endered. B-127's adoration and Orion's dedication to be helpful are rather cute. So he rewards them by letting them come to his place to be healed and get them moved from lv 50 to miners again.

It's not darkwing that finds them, it's megatron. He is not happy at all

Bee dosent notice and let's it slip that sentinel congratulated them and they get to see his place.

Megatron is furious. They ruined his chance, his ONE chance to do something that actually matters, and they get rewarded?

The yellow optics they know flicker an unknown orange for a second.

Megs drags them back to sub level 50, locking the door and telling them not to expect their little friend (Elita) to come help.

Maybe a few shifts in total confinement is what they need. So he turns everything off, the lights, the conveyor belt, the furnace. They are plunged into darkness.

They start to panic as megatron leaves. So It's in moving Steve to find a lamp or any of their emergency energon that they find the primes location device.

They know what they must do to make ok again.

HYPER-FIXATING ON THIS TRILOGY OF GAMES

here’s my interpretation of agent Phoenix! Non binary, mute, super agent.

[fyregrl]

Agent Phoenix refers to the Handler and Dr. Prism as Mum and Dad and nobody's sure if it's sarcastic.

[sketchwaslost]

Hello again, IEYTD fandom

I have a question for you

I am planning to make an animatic (hopefully) that will focus on the whole thing of Agent Phoenix coming back again and again

So, I need help with deciding which “fails” to include (i.e. the grenade drawer in Operation: Deep Dive)

I will be including all three of the final missions as well

So, if you have any ideas for what I should have in this animatic, any help would be appreciated

[kimplosion]

Dr. Prism can put her cog in my machine any time she wants tbh

[the-valiant-valkyrie]

As promised, here it is!! Color palettes for IEYTD3, yippie!! The rest of the set is in this post here. Feel free to use and reblog. And you don't have to by any means, but if you make something with them feel free to tag me bc i would love to put my greasy eyeballs all over it 😳🥺

[gayshitanddadjokes]

Why are there ever levels of I Expect You to Die where you don't get a lighter? Phoenix needs those for their enrichment

Cog in the machine au

Character hc

Orion

Didn't have many friend among the miners as he kept getting into trouble and demoted or moved to toegr departments.

Isn't the best at making friends as he is used to being moved from one place to the other

His last job in the upper levels was with Elita group but darkwing threw him to level 50 quickly after.... No one but Elita noticed that he was missing.

It's down there that he meets his best(only) friend, B-127, or bee as he likes to call him.

Orion is slightly smaller and weaker due to having alredy little energon down in lv50 and also having to share it with me

He still sneaks out and onto the archives pretty often. But now he does it with company as bee refuses to let him go him alone

Others don't reconize them as Orion and bee but those two crazy bots that run around some times.

He always tries to give what energon he saves up to bee out of worry for the trouble he brings him on

B-127

Was so so happy when he met Orion. New coworker (best friend forever and ever) let's go! Calls him pax because he couldn't think of a better nickname

Elita

Super excited to go out with pax to the archive and help out everyone find the matrix. That way they'll never go hungry again and they can go out like all the other cogless!

He and Orion are 100% the younger brother older brother duo. He idolizes Orion

While Steve and company were great, Orion is now his BFF, so sadly the guys need to be moved out since Orion need a place to sleep and plan their search to for the matrix

Still very chatty and Orion encourages this. They are eachothers only constant after having such an unstable life so they cling a bit (a lot)

He has told Orion all of his high guard facts. Orion now looks for stickers and info on the high guard as b-127 is a huge fan

I headcanon him as a starscream fan

With the space they have at their table to sleep Orion made mini versions of starscream and his trines alt modes and hung them on the ceiling for them to see

Tries to give what energon he saves to orion in turn

She was the last boss Orion had before darkwing demoted him to lv50

She was so worried when she couldn't find that new guy and no one knew where he was

She finally asked megatron what had happened and after much pressing she was told they where in lv50.... She was horrified and worried but there was nothing she could do

Since she isn't Orion's boss for long she isn't as harsh on his behavior, but she is very worried for them. (giving Elita my eldest daughter syndrome)

She often sends down energon and medical supplies for them.

They aren't her responsability or problem.... But someone has to look after them. Primus knows they don't do that themselves

Without Orion or d-16 a cavein killed jazz.... Elita blames herself and can't even manage to defend herself when darkwing fires her.

She failed jazz, she failed her team, and she feels she's constantly failing Orion and bee. At least in waste management there's no one she can let down and she has more chances to see her two clowns

She saw them on the race and nearly threw herself in the track to drag them out.

"what sort of idiot cogless would run on the race? ..... SCRAP THSOE ARE MY IDIOTS!!"

Ran to the infirmary thinking the worst had happened as she didn't stick around to see the race and stumbled onto megatron and darkwing who had been hurt by Orion and B-127 in the race

Megatron

Another mine supervisor with darkwing

While not as cruel he is much more strict

Couldn't tolerate Orion and his disregard for megatrons perfect plan to a mediocre yet simple and stable life

He has few friends. As in.... None

He is too dedicated to his job and has no time for a social life. So anything that upsets the balance of this causes him bouts of anger.

Still a big megatronus prime fan and sentinel idolizer with darkwing.

His relationship with darkwing is somewhat of a asshole idler brother, loser little brother. Megatron desperetly craves aprobal and beloved he can earn that by working his aft off.

Megatron tries to impress him, as he is his superior and a many times racer of the iacon 5000. But darkwing at best mocks him and plays it off as a 'joke' this leading to megatron being a bystander to his abuse of the cogless

After the iacon 5000 he had stopped just before he could hit B-127 graveously, and it caused both him and darkwing to not cross the finish line

Darkwing was pissed and fired him. Put him as supervisor of waste management.

He subconsciously begins to crack. All that he worked for just went down the drain because he didn't hit one meager cogless bot....

Metal Man Stage from Mega Man 2

Propaganda under the cut. If you want your propaganda reblogged and added to future polls, please tag it as propaganda or otherwise indicate this!

Metal Man Stage:

easily one of the most iconic mega man tracks out there, and also it slaps hard. if it wasnt for this track metal man wouldnt be as beloved as he is.

A perfect blend of industrial and action-y.
