[BW] Yandere!Dinobot/Reader [hcs/thoughts]
tw/tags: heat cycle, yandere themes, mentions of stalking, jealousy, possessiveness, a tinyy bit suggestive. word count: ~700 a/n: born to obsess over underrated characters forced to yap about the popular one (but I'm joking, I love them all, I'm just sad that Beast Wars is not talked about as much as other shows).
some quick thoughts in between requests because if I don't express it now, i will forget about it.
okay hear me out on...yandere Dinobot. I know Beast Wars is not really popular in the fandom, but oh my god, this ugly handsome man
we all saw that maximals/predacons share those animalistic traits that are connected to their beast modes. Rattrap likes to chew on scrap, Cheetor acts like a cat and even meows, Tigatron considers white tigers as some kind of family; Tarantulas and Blackarachnia have that rivalry for obvious reasons (bad for him).
it would be funny if they also had some type of cybertronian heat cycles.
even though Dinobot is heavily influenced by Jurassic Park velociraptors, I still feel like he'd act like a big bird rather than a lizard. or something in between, of course.
Yandere!Dinobot is overprotective and snappy as hell, to the point he considers even other maximals as a potential danger to you. Unlike more rational bots, Dinobot has no shame at all. It would cost him an arm and a leg to admit it to you, but he's actually jealous. Of what? There's no need to find any reason to explain his behavior once the season starts.
Yandere!Dinobot is vocal; he will growl, hiss and snap his teeth at anyone who tries to approach his mate. All maximals know that it's not the time to come near the two of you, but the unrespectful predacons...I'm a sucker for duos, their possibilities, and to imagine the dynamic between Megatron/Dinobot, both trying to court the poor reader.
But once the two of you are alone, I can see him having those rare moments where Dinobot lets himself relax. Most of the time he's in a constant state of alert, the dangerous mix of his primal instincts and that warrior code of his just tells him to take you somewhere far-far away, so no maximal or predacon will get you. So maybe he can rest just for a little with you next to him. Dinobot definitely makes soft purrs, even to his own surprise.
Yandere!Dinobot is a stalker. Maybe, when it's just the start of the relationship between the two of you, he will try to somehow justify it, at least. Like, “I am just testing your skills, a true warrior must be always alert. You don't know when the predacons attack you next” , but the more you grow closer to him, the more he lets himself be a tiny bit warmer to you “You should not wander off alone. Stick closer to me”.
Read it, and don't forget a little personal nickname he has for you, which he adds at the end of the sentence.
It will also be funny to imagine Dinobot being a little too invested in building a nest. It also gets more awkward if your beast mode is some far different species. Why would he need to collect your stuff from your room? And why is he so adamant about you always staying in his room? He is holding you so tightly that you practically have no chance but to stay. So clueless!
“Is that [...] from my quarters?”
“Just be quiet and start recharging, you irresistible fool!”
Dinobot himself is a little embarrassed too if you start asking too many questions. He doesn't like being all vulnerable, even though he trusts you very much to know that you will never make fun of him. His own mind is clouded with not so innocent thoughts, and it actually becomes a big problem when he tries to focus on his training or fighting.
I don't think Dinobot would try to attract you with those silly dances reptiles/birds do to impress their mates, but when he is in his beast mode, you can definitely notice his tail wagging just a little bit when you're around. Rattrap probably picks on it faster than you and teases Dinobot about it until the two start fighting again.

Every time I hear about a school near me (USAmerica) banning cellphones in classrooms, my immediate thought is fear for those students there, because what if one day they have a shooting and those students can’t call their mothers? Because legislators are more concerned about technology than guns.
#i was at school one day years and years ago and my school got shot up#and i did not call my father and i regret that every day#he didn’t even know it had happened until our neighbor told him so that he could come pick me and my little brother up#i had the ability to it just did not occur to me because i was having a panic attack at the time#you can say what you want about attention spans and cheating and what have you but at the end of the day#i can’t ever think of a justification for getting rid of phones entirely in schools considering these are the conditions we live in#and the fact that we even have to consider this is dystopian and terrifying. children should not be saying their last words in a classroom#tw school shooting#tw shooting#tw gun#tw gun mention#tw death#tw child death#tw school shootings#tw panic attack#tw panic mention#let me know if i need to add any other tw

Scythes and Mimics
In 2021, I had a dream where I was a Shadowhunter helping out Clary Fairchild as we hunted down a strange shapeshifting demon. Clary ended up beheading a clone of herself, with a badass scythe.
So, I drew an interpretation of the scene. And then, last year, I redrew that picture, and posted it to my DeviantArt. But I figured I should bring some of my DA art over here, so here we are.

tw for: body horror and implied body dysmorphia
sometimes i like to think about how kenny’s deaths might stick with him and, while i don’t particularly headcanon this as being one of the ways, i thought it made for an interesting explanation as to why he hides his face
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
i was also in the mood to draw some pretty kenny (especially craig thinking that kenny is pretty) and some darker art so i thought, why not both????
#tw body horror#tw horror art#tw body dysmorphia#craig tucker#kenny mccormick#sp crenny#damnkenn draws#my art#fun fact: i used to want to make horror comics for a living#please let me know if there’s any other warnings i should add!!

I feel like I want to talk about the Wilbur Soot situation, now that he's made a response (I'm not calling it an apology because quite frankly, it wasn't)
I haven't been into MCYT for a while, but Wilbur Soot was one of my comfort streamers during COVID. I was a huge fan of his music and Lovejoy. But I cannot and will not support an abuser. I appreciate he's getting therapy, but his statement shows he is downplaying what occurred and is not taking accountability for his actions.
I am not very familiar with Shubble, but I wish them the absolute best. The same goes for anyone Wilbur may have abused and manipulated, whether it was in a romantic relationship or a platonic one. I get a feeling we will hear more about that soon.
And I also wish the best to Wilbur. Yes, he has done horrible things and should not be supported financially, but portraying abusers as evil monsters is not helpful when discussing abuse. This mindset makes it seem as though someone who has done good things and is "good" at heart cannot be abusive.
I hope Wilbur remains in therapy and takes care of his mental health. It's no secret he's struggled with depression and something like this could exacerbate it greatly. Hes spoken personally and in his music about the harm fame has done to him and his poor mental health, so I think right now it would best for him to step back from content creation and truly work on helping himself become better.

PLEASE SOMEONE LISTEN WHAT IF
“The Moon Will Sing” is ABOUT A PARENT
Note 1: this is in no way supposed to be definitive, it is my interpretation as someone who relates heavily to the song in this context
Note 2: this interpretation is in no way, shape, or form trying to say that the way the singer depicts her relationship with her parents in this song is indicative of her relationship with her parents in real life. It is not my place, nor anyone else’s, to speculate about how accurate this song is to her personal life. Though my wording may seem as though I am talking about the singer’s actual relationship with her parents, I mean it strictly in the context of the song. We must all respect the artist’s privacy.
“Tell me once again, I could’ve been anyone anyone else, before you made the choice for me”
The singer is expressing her disbelief that her whole fate was practically determined by her parents, that she could’ve been so much different if they didn’t mold her to be a certain way
“My feet knew the path we walked in the dark… I never gave a single thought to where it might lead”
The singer was unaware of the path her parent was taking her and was kept in the dark about what the steps her parents told her to take would lead. The fact that she ‘never gave a single thought’ implies naïveté that is consistent with an exceptionally young child blindly following their parents instructions
“All those empty rooms, we could have been anywhere… else, instead I made a bed with apathy”
The ‘empty rooms’ could be a reference to the unfurnished facets of her life that her parents may have forced her to leave empty in pursuit of ‘furnishing’ other ‘rooms’ (I.e. they won’t let her explore music because she needs to focus on grades). The bed of apathy likely means that she had become too tired to debate or fight back, that she opted for inaction and acceptance of her parents’ molding for the sake of ease and because she was too tired from working on furnishing these rooms to do anything besides continue the cycle.
“My heart knew the weight, ten years worth of dust and neglect, we made our peace with weariness and let it be”
This could be saying that the tiredness the singer expresses formerly exists in her parents as well, that everyone is just too tired to address any issues within their families. I would like to note that, while not explicitly stated, this may be referencing ‘The Hand that Feeds’ where her father was established to “work all his days.”
“The moon will sing a song for me, I loved you like the sun, bore the shadows that you made with no light of my own, I shine only with the light you gave me…”
THE WHOLE VERSE IS SO FIRE OMG ANYWAYS The singer is expressing how she relates to the moon due to the way it is completely dépendant on the sun for its light. In the same way, she may be saying that she feels as though all the goodness or impressive qualities are only the result of her parents’ light. In other words, sheath be expressing a deep-seated fear that she is not quite fully a new person, rather just a combination of her parents and/or their actions
“Name your courage now”
Her parents may, in her adult life, be boasting about how good they were to her when she was a child. However, it is only putting a name to ‘courage’ that ultimately may have done more harm than good or have just been the bare minimum
“We could have had anything else, instead you hoarded all that’s left of me”
Now we’re getting into a new facet of the relationship with the parents! It seems that they also were overbearing in some way, stopping the singer from getting the experiences or friends she wanted.
“Swallowing your doubt, like swords to the pit of my belly”
She seems to be internalizing her parents’ cynicism and/or criticism and allowing that to mold her. It seems her parents not trusting her hurts her a lot, meaning she places a lot of emphasis on their approval/trust, which is supported by the first verse
“I want to feel the fire that you kept from me!”
In the story of Prometheus, the god steals fire from Mount Olympus to give to humans and gets punished for it. The reason this may be important is because the Crane Wives are no strangers to referencing folklore (look at the explanation behind their name). We can reasonably assume that they are acknowledging the double-faceted nature of fire that the myth of Prometheus displays. Fire is something that gives advancement, the basis of early and modern technology as well as a major way our world consumes energy. It also provides light and warmth, as well as an opportunity for rebirth (look at why forest fires are beneficial for forests). At the same time, fire is the great consumer, it spreads and burns as it goes, leaving ash in its wake. The Prometheus story not only references the consequences of bringing such a force to mortals, but also why Prometheus thought it was important to risk himself for. In this lyric, the singer references a fire that was kept from her, which from the previous discussion we can reasonably assume includes both the growth fire brings and the destruction it causes. I’m other words, I believe this lyric is saying that the singer desires for both sides of life, growth and harm, that her parents ‘protected’ her from.

This is not meant maliciously. Myself and a lot of others in my circle have complicated histories so I just... Wanted a mostly anonymous census?
Share if you like but I'm not interested in this breaching containment for pretty obvious reasons.

Maybe some things were always meant to be broken...
I said I'd do it I SAID I'D DO IT-
Ooooooooh boy, here we go! I said I'd draw and color in a Hatter, and so I did! I never said that it was going to be a happy piece ;3 (hey, even I'm capable of angst at times) so here's Jervis having a not-so-fun time. (My first ever semi-scene even!)
The reason Scarecrow (figure on the right) has "HATE" written on it is because I couldn't think of what Scarecrow's symbol would be, plus it's a mention to "the incident" that happened between Crane and Tetch that we don't know much about. (But all we know is it was messy!)
Also the masks under the figures are a nod to froot-batty's Mad Hatter tea party pic, where Eddie and Jon are wearing masks!
Anywho, I'm super proud of this, the background may not be fully colored in but it was fun!
A better view of the full thing, since I did have to break out the big sketchbook for this one.
All of these amazing designs (Jervis, Edward, Jonathan, and the Alice) belong to the awesome @froot-batty! I really hope I did your Hatter (and everyone else) justice ;3
