Howdy! You seem familiar! (To WM)

Imagine if all the Megatrons swapped Starscreams like g1 Starscream ended up in tfp armada starscream ending up in tfa and tfp Starscream ended up in g1

Oh boy-

G1 Starscream is dead within 20 minutes. He tries to kill TFP Megatron and unlike the one he's used to, this Megatron does not tolerate insubordination of any kind. His Starscream gets away with it because he's got a bangin body and purrs the word, "Masteeer~" very appealingly. He also doesn't have any attachment to this Starscream. Blasts him straight through the spark with his fusion canon and rolls his optics, leaving the vehicons to clean up the corpse

Armada in TFA is... weird. This Megatron is a lot less, how do I put it? Mouthy? Verbally abusive? He's not going to ridicule this new Starscream and dress him down publicly like the Megatron he's used to. This Megatron actually treats him really well, compared to what he's used to? He doesn't hit him nor make him out to be worthless and an easy target for all kinds of smacktalk. This Megatron is much quieter and more calculating, definitely more manipulative, but his soft voice and patient nature make Starscream putty in his hands. He's not at all opposed to more forces, and this seeker is obedient and seems to openly crave his praise and validation. It's very easy for TFA Megatron to get him under his control, and they're both happy with that arrangement

TFP Starscream legitimately takes over the decepticons in less than 24 hours. These clowns don't have to hide from humans and do the exact, same, thing, every single day without fail. Their plans are always the same, they don't even seem to have any overarching goals aside from annoying the autobots. Plus, they're tiny compared to him (the g1 bots are like?? Between 15 and 20 feet tall, TFP Scream clocks in at over 30). Their armor is thin and he has much heavier weaponry. Killing off or defeating Megatron is laughably easy after everything he's endured with his own. Whether he keeps him alive as a trophy or just kills him to take his throne is up to you, but the decepticons have a new boss. A boss with more grand ideas than just endless energon raids. He does a complete overhaul of their security system (the amount of times that autobota get in here is alarming. How they've not just been blown to smithereens yet is beyond him), upgrades their weapons and battle plans, and most importantly: starts working on an actual longterm plan to fix this shit. He runs an incredibly tight ship and even Soundwave is hard pressed to deny that he's lethally efficient.

I made an au back in early 2023 where Webby and Violet gets transported to a Pirate AU

i wouldve written a fic for it but i cant write long fics unfortunately

What would happen if Gen had to fight through DL's plot while technically alone, but having all the other Links (including all the sequel/OC/backstory Links for maximum chaos) stuck as voices in his head?

The others can try to take control by force if they want to, though if multiple people (Gen included) are trying to pull Gen's body in different directions he'll fall over or something from the conflicting feedback. He doesn't have access to the others' items but they can share knowledge and if everyone agrees to let someone specific have control that person's skills can be used.

...This is just Demise's problem but with Gen as the victim instead. Oh this poor boy.

Good News, the Links are not the sorts of people to hijack a body that isn't theirs, especially when the owner is actively driving it. Gen remains the pilot of his own existence for roughly 95% of the time.

For the other 5%, there are a few Rules in place:

Rule One, the Four are not allowed to drive, ever. Their multiplicity mixes very very badly with a single body. They accept this with a minimal amount of resigned sighing.

Rule Two, Gen's permission is required first, unless there is a legitimate emergency and there's no time for permission.

Rule Three, in the case of said legitimate emergency, Lore drives. He has the most experience with Weird Possession Situations.

On the other hand, they never quite got around for making Rules for the rest of it, such as taking turns talking or whatnot. Gen hasn't had a single second of quiet headspace since this whole mess began, and it he hasn't gone a little bit mad from the mental cacophony of it all by now, then he most certainly will have by the time this whole mess ends

Adventures of Wally & The Gang (plus their Caretaker)

Keep A Level Head

Warnings: None. Humor. Just more silly antics. Inspired by the anime “ Aggretsuko”.  

Word Count: 834

Brief Description: The Welcome Home cast is alive, living alongside humans. You have been contracted as their Caretaker. Our dear Caretaker has been running around all day, working hard. On top of your daily administrative work, you also have to babysit tend to the colorful ensemble of actors, plus all the other studio employees, who can’t seem to do things on their own.

[Not sure if this constitutes a WH!Muppet AU scenario?? Not sure how to tag it haha] 

“Care! Hey, hey! Care--?! Hey! Caretaker! Heeeeeeeeeey!” Julie wails, following behind as you try to ignore her and focus on the task at hand.

No matter how many times you try to address the blonde, she pulls you away from what needs to be done, to what she wants to do. It’s become a bit of an irritating habit, although you’re convinced it’s her hobby, to distract you from your job so you can entertain her grabs for attention.

“Not now Julie, I have a lot of work to do, but I promise I’ll do whatever it is you’re wanting once I’ve got more time—”

“No, I need you now. The new dress I had ordered still hasn’t arrived and I—”

You drone out her increasing insistence, beginning to pick up the pace as you swerved through the crowd of studio employees and other puppets. Unfortunately, the moment the others sight you, the choir of:

“Hey Care—”

“--need you here—”

“Can you fix—”

“Get me some—”

You stop in your tracks, feeling Julie bump into you from behind. With your binder tucked close to your chest, your hands tighten around it. The overwhelming demands from the maintenance team, stagehands, cameramen, and puppets made you fume. It was obvious from your face how feelings of annoyance had now turned into full-blown anger. You tried steadying your breath, feeling the heat prickle at your cheeks, and reminding yourself to remain professional, you need this job, it pays the bills… it pays the bills…it pays the bills….

“Hold on!” You boom, causing the voices to settle. You stand your ground, steeling yourself as you take a breath. “I am extremely busy right now—” You strain, each word slow, with brows furrowed and jaw tight. “Sooo-- I’d appreciate it if you all stop pestering me for a moment, because if I hear one more per—”

“Hey, Care?” Barnaby interjects, poking his head out of the restroom door.

Your mouth shuts, head snapping around to look at him. “What?!”

“I clogged the toilet,” Barnaby responds monotonously, thumb pointing toward inside the restroom, as water slowly began trickling its way outside.

The grip around your binder tightens even more to the point you felt like you could have ripped it in half. Your eyes narrow into a glare, tight lips twitching up into a menacing grin.

“So uh… could you fix it?” Barnaby probes, moving away from the slow leak of water pooling around his feet.

“Please excuse me for a moment…” You seethe, quickly and silently moving your way toward one of the audio control rooms, knowing the padded walls would shield your outbursts. Upon arrival, you slammed the binder down onto the script stand, causing it to wobble and tilt over.

That was the last straw.

You bring your arms up, flailing them around as you release your rage. “What the actual [redacted]?! I just need to do one [redacted] thing! One thing! But nooooooo--! I can’t catch a [redacted] break around here! And why the [redacted] would Barnaby clog the toilet?! PUPPETS DON’T EVEN NEED TO USE THE [redacted] TOILET?!”

You heaved, palming your forehead for a second before sliding your hand over your eyes. You took a few deep breaths to soothe yourself until you heard an audible click and the sound designer over the two-way speaker.

“You, uh, okay in there?”

You drop your hand down to your mouth, eyes darting open to see not only the sound designer but a few of the puppets and two other employees who followed you to your location, staring at you from behind the glass.

You stared back.

Julie had arched a brow, crossing her arms over her chest in disapproval.

Wally’s half-lidded, unwavering, eyes peered at you. “Those are some naughty words there...” He commented, his voice crackling a bit through the speaker. Though, reading his expression you could tell he was a bit amused.

“Yes dear, you really should watch your language.” Poppy chimes, as everyone else in the sound room nods in agreement.

Standing there for a moment longer, you finally gave up. Picking up your binder and setting the script stand back up in place, you walk through the door into the sound room, staying silent as Barnaby stepped toward you with a plunger in hand.

“I found this if it’ll help with the toilet—”

You didn’t say anything as you walked past him, only extending a hand, and swiping the plunger from his grasp. You moved on through the exit.

[BONUS]

Barnaby and Wally both stood outside the restroom door, peering in and watching as you muttered curses under your breath and violently plunged the toilet to unclog whatever ungodly thing Barnaby stuffed in there.

Wally: “So, uh, Barnaby?”

Barnaby: “Yeah lil’ buddy?”

Wally: “What did you put in there?”

Barnaby: “Just a bunch of leftover doughnuts from the spread table.”

Wally: “…Why?”

Barnaby, shrugging: “Wanted to see what would happen…”

Amanda... I miss her.

But I don't trust a single person to write her other than Ostrander/Yale. Like I don't trust them to do it right. Because like it's easy to write her being shady and manipulative and involved in secret government conspiracies. That's what she does. But it feels so hollow once you've seen her character in the way Ostrander describes it. Like she is a woman who is desperate and trying to do what she thinks is right. She has found a place of power (as a fat Black woman in the 1980s) and is doing anything she can to fight and hold onto it as powerful and ambitious men try and steal it from her. So she doubles down. She doubles down on the shady deals and the broken promises and the violence and she destroys her enemies, and loses a part of her soul in the process. And then some other ambitious politician rises up and the process repeats itself over and over and over again as each time she loses more of her morality and more of her soul and more of the respect her colleagues had for her. In place of that she gains more power, she gains fear, and an even more badass reputation. Until by the end of the book the villains begin to understand/sympathize with her more than the heroes ever will. Like THAT is who Amanda Waller is. It may happen subtly, it may happen over a longer period of time but that descent is a critical part of her character! She is a tragic character! And I feel like every perception of Suicide Squad I've seen outside of the original has her as this static villainous snapshot which is just untrue to her core imo. Like she is not a hero. But she is also not JUST a villain. She is a highly flawed character who is always descending farther and farther into villainy as she is led there by what she believes is right.

Am I about to read about some teen alien pregnancy drama, or teen tedd vs archie romance drama?

What do Tfp Optimus and Tfp ratchet think of tf1 Orion?

Oh they both think he's adorable, and are a bit taken aback by just how daring and mischievous he is. Ratchet finds him so endearing, though he won't admit it, and Optimus hopes so desperately that this little one will have a kinder fate than he himself has. Orion confidently declares that he and D-16 will be together forever, and that they'll never be like this universe's versions of themselves. Optimus hopes, with all his spark, that he's right. He really, truly does. If he can only find happiness in another life in another world, then he so dearly hopes that happiness comes to these two.

Here's our fill for "Dimensional swap". :D

It's been a week since the destruction of Kamino. A week since everything fell, or came together. On a mission gone awry, Omega opens a portal and steps into another dimension with her brothers. And what do their... alternate-selves mean it was Crosshair they lost first, not Hunter? (Sequel to Doomsday, can be read separately)

"I'm not sure what else we should have expected from a child who had Lore as a formative influence during their developmental years," Gen says wryly, as Rinku all but bounces off the walls in his excitement at meeting new people

I thought I just had watching the new short trailer clip on the Doctor Who YouTube channel:

All the "oncoming storm"/"I would shatter this battlefield into dust"/etc that the doctor does to intimidate people threatening them/their friends/Earth-

It's slightly more impressive but essentially the same thing as when a cat fluffs themself up really big when faced with another cat or a vacuum cleaner
