[minidodds]

This scene where Sam hides away his wedding ring and photo of his ex-wife and daughter is kind of heartbreaking.

Based on the context clues, I am assuming his daughter passed away and his marriage didn't survive? But he's never moved on. He's hiding the "evidence" from Bernie because he either wants to keep that pain close to heart, or is ashamed of still being stuck in the past, or both. 💔

[fangirlingdweeb]

Did I just spend 2 hours of my life reading amazing fanfics of When The Phone Rings on ao3? Yes, yes I did.

Do I regret it? Never.

Hello could I have idw windblade x male human in it windblade is first finding out about humans and falls in love with them

Lets go Windblade!

Hope you enjoy!

Windblade falling for Human Buddy

SFW, Platonic, Hinted romance, Human reader

IDW

It was Thundercracker who introduced Windblade to Buddy.

Windblade had gone to Earth in Starscream’s place as something big had popped up and forced him to stay.

Whether there was something that actually came up, Windblade was excited to finally see Earth.

She had seen so many videos and read many data pads on the infamous planet and was ecstatic to finally have a chance to see it with her own optics.

Chromia was less excited than her friend, preferring terrain she knew, but someone had to protect her.

Thundercracker and Buster were the one’s who first welcomed them to the planet when Buddy and Marrissa came in.

Marrissa and Buddy look up at the two new bots. Marrissa: “Welcome to Earth Windblade and Chromia. I am Marrissa and this is Buddy. We will be your human liaison’s during you stay on planet.” Buddy was still looking at the bots. Marrissa nudged Buddy on the side, snapping him out of his trace. Buddy: “Pardon me, I am still new to Cybertronians on the job. As Marrissa said, I am Buddy. If you need anything or have any questions, please feel free to ask.” Windblade: “Buddy, I have a question.” Buddy: “Yes?” Windblade: "Is it true that there are turbo foxes on Earth? I read on the way here that there were.” Chromia and Thundercracker look at her curiously. Not the type of question they thought the City Speaker would ask. Buddy: “We don’t have ‘turbo foxes’ but we do have the smaller organic version of them. Also depending which type—” Windblade: “There’s more than one type?” Buddy: “Yeah, I mean, yes. On Earth we have different types of foxes. If you follow me, I think we rescued an injured one that was caught in a bear trap a couple days ago. If Berny hasn’t released him yet, we can still see the little guy.” Windblade fluttering her wings a bit: “Yes, please!” The jet follows the smaller human happily chatting about the fox. Chromia, Marrissa and Thundercracker: “…” Thundercracker: “You know, that sounds a little like one of the screen writes I have drafted.” Chromia glaring at the human from a distance: “And how does it end.” Thundercracker: “They both fall in love—” Chromia: “Nope.” She marches right behind the pair. Thundercracker: “I bet a tube of wax Windblade falls first.” Marrissa: “Thundercracker! That is highly inappropriate!... Anyways, Buddy already fell for her.”

Chromia was Windblade’s shadow everywhere she went with the human.

She didn’t believe that her friend could fall for someone she just met.

She was smarter than that!

Buddy sensed the hostility coming from Windblade’s companion and tried including her in as many activities as he could.

He had already brought done Windblade’s walls with showing the foxes and some of the more peaceful areas outside the base.

Chromia was a harder challenge, but Buddy was always up for a good challenge.

It came in the form of the indoor racetrack and Cybertronian sized sparring ring.

Buddy was the sole pilot of a prototype mech suit created to help other Cybertronians on Earth if trouble came around.

Apparently sparring was the way to get through to Chromia.

Buddy slamming down on his back in the suit. Windblade and Thundercracker wince at the sound. Chromia walks over his suit. Chromia: “Your form is sloppy and slow.” Buddy: “Yeah, well it’s kinda hard when you’re still getting used to the new framework.” Chromia smirks and offers him her servo. He takes it and lets her pull him up. Chromia: “Despite that, you did manage to get a few good hits.” Buddy: “Is that a compliment I hear?” Chromia: “Please, you’re a decent fighter for a human…maybe we should get a new sparring partner. Windblade get your sword.” Buddy: “What?” Windblade: “What?” Thundercracker and Marrissa: “What?” Buster: “Woof?”

Buddy didn’t stand a chance.

Not that Windblade was a better fighter than he was.

No…

It was that he didn’t want to hurt her, which ultimately lead to him getting his behind slammed on the ground for multiple rounds.

After the ‘fight’ Buddy offered to show them around more places around the base and to see the sunset.

This seemed to be the pattern for the rest of the visit.

Work, sight see, spar, sight see, back to base.

The sight seeing only increased once Marrissa helped Buddy get clearance for certain airspaces.

Windblade had a soft spot for leisure flies around dawn and walks near the bases forested area.

The two were rarely seen apart during the whole visit.

Sadly, the visit had ended too soon for the pair.

Buddy, Marrissa, and Thundercracker waving at the ship as it disappeared out of sight.  Thundercracker: “That was a nice visit. Better without Screamer here.” Buddy: “I will never get how out of the ‘trine’ thing, YOU came out with a semi stable moral compass.” Marrissa: “I second that.” Buddy starts moving to the door. Thundercracker: “You’re not upset that Windblade left, are you?” Buddy blushes a bit before shaking his head. Buddy: “We knew the visit was short Cracker.” Marrissa: “So you aren’t going to miss her?” Buddy: “I didn’t say that. She is a good friend—” Thundercracker fake coughs loudly while Marrissa gave him a knowing smile. Buddy just huffs and walks back to his office desk. PING! Buddy looks down at his tablet to see a message. Windblade: “Can’t wait till I visit again! Miss you already!” Buddy blushes and smiles. Buddy: “Can’t wait either.”

How Buddy was looking at Windblade when she steps out of the ship.

[hubernies]

Yes. Please. The Hubernie fandom on tumblr would be most appreciative.

it took me an embarrassingly long time to answer this because I kept starting to answer and then getting distracted, but, I’m gonna try now!

(This anon is referring to me asking if there’s interest in hearing my hubernie HCs in what was at the time the year of our lord 2024 and now it’s 2025 and it’s even more embarrassing that I’m still stuck on these bozos but here we are)

Here are some hubernie HCs that are not particularly groundbreaking or interesting but nevertheless spark joy

They have Work Gloves too. Like, you see them wearing their regular ones—Hubert’s are white and Bernadetta’s are yellow and purple. But when they’re at Work they both wear black ones. Specifically black leather gloves (easier to clean).

Their ending states Bernadetta works at Hubert’s right hand in the shadows. From this I infer she’s also co-running the spy ring. I imagine Bernadetta contributes a lot of people smarts to their work. Sometimes Hubert uses this for diplomacy but more often than not he uses it as a way for them to guess what a frightened target is going to do so they can corner them faster. They’re a very effective team.

They are both nobles, and Bernadetta in particular is very wealthy. However I think they still cook their own meals. Bernadetta canonically loves to cook, and I think Hubert would like to have a way he can be of service to her. It makes him feel nice.

Related: Sometimes when it’s his night to cook, if Hubert fucks up the food and burns some of it he just gives her everything that’s not charred and eats the bits he ruined.

They like to sit next to each other on a loveseat and read their own things. Bernadetta is reading romance novels and Hubert’s reading Work Things, books on magical theory or tactical theory, or books on poisons. However he does like to read the romance over Bernie’s shoulder when he thinks she’s not looking. He tells himself it’s so he can learn more about what she finds romantic/sexy but in truth he actually kind of likes it. Even if he calls it schmaltz.

Hubert tries really hard sometimes to be romantic for her but often fumbles spectacularly. However he’s quite good at it when he is not trying or is really flustered. He can never do it on purpose.

In the original Japanese, Hubert calls her Lady Bernadetta, and calls Edelgard Master Edelgard. As a result I usually write Hubert calling Bernie “Lady Bernadetta,” even after they get married. Sometimes he calls her name without the Lady attached but there are exactly Two Situations that call for this.

They have a greenhouse absolutely full of poisonous plants. It’s one of Hubert’s favorite spots to sit on a bench and enjoy her company.

Hubert uses magic to light fires for the fireplace or candles sometimes. Whenever he does this, if Bernadetta does something that makes his heart race, the fire gets brighter or hotter. Sometimes he has to ask her to stop so he can extinguish the fireplace/blow the candles out or else he’ll burn their castle down.

According to their ending they primarily reside in Varley. I imagine that they go to Enbarr for work a few times a year for a couple weeks at a time and when they do, they stay in Vestra Towers, which has been Hubert’s residence since he was young. In Varley, Hubert had the castle ripped apart from the inside and redone entirely, so it wouldn’t look like where his wife grew up.

I can post spicier ones too if there’s a Market for such a thing hehe but I hope this sparks joy!

Some facts and stories about Roland Ratzenberger

• When he was seven years old his grandmother took him to a local hill climb race at Gaisberg.

• His first word was 'car'

• He was nine years old when year the family home the Salzburg ring opened. He was get through the gates to go watch the cars drive.

• He had a poster of Jochen Rindt on his wall as a kid.

• In the winter of 1991 he married the former partner of another driver, becoming the stepfather of her son, however they were divorced in early 1992.

• While in the UK, he briefly gained some fame for having a similar name to the TV puppet 'Roland Rat'. ITV invited film to film a segment with the puppet for national breakfast television. He raced against the rat (who was in a car dubbed 'Ratmobile') the Rat Puppet ended up winning the race down to cheating.

• F1 author David Tremayne son's who was three years old insisted on calling Roland Ratzenburg-and-chips-and-beans to his face. Roland found it hilarious and became that young boy's hero.

• Described as 'gentle, always unfailingly polite, tall, good-looking, and with a ready smile'

• Journalist Adam Cooper went out drinking with Roland in Japan and at the end of the night they had decided he should come stay in Japan for a year or two to cover the local racing scene. When he turned up and realised the hotel was more expensive than he had planned Roland let him stay in the spare twin bed he had in his room. He was happy to have company.

• One of his unusual goals was to try to enjoy female company in the team motorhome between stints in 24 hour races. Adam Cooper reccounts ' I think the last time we discussed it he’d managed the feat twice at Le Mans, and once at the Nurburgring.'

• One time he used his deep Austrain accent to record a Terminator style 'I'll be back' answer machine message for rival Jeff Krosnoff

• He kept a black book full of 'ladies' numbers

• One time his friend Anthony Reid had an accident in a F3000 race, and had a lot of blood streaming down his face. Roland had to take charge of the scene as the marshals freaked out. He made sure his journalist friend wrote about the shortcomings of safety in a Japanese magazine afterwards.

• At a Formula Ford festival his team either ran out of funds or walked out and Roland was left with just his car and a toolbox. Because he was so well liked mechanics and personnel from other teams helped him prepare his car. He won that festival.

• On one occasion, Heinz-Harald Frentzen and Ratzenberger entered a nightclub. There was a confrontation between Frentzen and another guy which saw a knife pulled on either Frentzen or a random female bystander. Either way, Ratzenberger selflessly stepped in and wrestled the knife away from the man. 

• A documentary has been put out on YouTube about Roland by Levay film production, detailing all about his life. A recommended watch.

• Bernie Ecclestone personally delivered the confirmation of Ratzenburg's death to the Simtek team

• Ayton Senna commandeered an offical car to hurry to the medical center where he learnt of Roland's fate from his friend, Dr Sid Watkins

• Only five drivers attended his funeral

Step right up folks, to the Carnival of Corruption! There’s thrills! Chills! And inevitable jail cells! The crimes a fraud a minute here at the Carnival of Corruption!

We start with the head of this 3 ring circus, the man with the tiny hands! The orange Cheeto crusted Jesus himself! Convicted rapist, fraudster and insurrectionist! The dumb, the only!…. Donald J Trump!!!

Our felonious circus leader has 34 felony convictions, he’s been convicted of sexual assault, robbed his own charity, the master of business fraud and tax fraud, an incompetent liar and complete racist as*hole, this man makes Bernie Madoff look legitimate. The irreparable damage he has caused to the United States will be felt for decades to come! The installation of 3 Supreme Court justices, ranging from religious extremists, to fellow sexual assailants, was instrumental in his rise back to power when, as it turns out, the “conservative” judges in SCOTUS, don’t know how to read. When the ruling in Trump v Anderson was ruled in favor of Trump, allowing an insurrectionist access to the ballot. Going in direct contrast to the 14th amendment section 3. It’s nice to have skeezy friends in high places.

We turn our sights now to the second in command. A guy that wears more eyeliner than Liza Minnelli, JD (Jerkin Dudes) Vance. No major scandals (yet) to speak of, but what a prick! A man who called out our circus leader as “Americas Hitler” and berated single women who love cats, this jerk has close ties with billionaire Peter Thiel, who financed the most expensive senatorial campaign at the time to get Vance elected to the Senate from the “great” (🙄) state of Ohio. With the top of the ticket this fantastic, how did they not win by an even higher margin!? It absolutely nuts!! 🤔😐

Next we have Susie Wiles as White House chief of staff. This longtime lobbyist, and swamp creature, can be credited with getting the worst of the worst elected. From Ron DeSanctimonious, the the Mandarin Mussolini himself, Wiles is the definition of the swamp.

For Secretary of State there’s Little Marco Rubio. He may be the most “qualified”, one could say, of Trump’s cabinet picks. Our mousey little buddy has time and time again shown his lack of conviction on anything. If he was any worse in personal integrity he’d give Lindsey Graham a run for his money.

Look up in the sky, it’s a bird, a plane? No! It’s Pam Bondi on the corruption trapeze! Switching spots with the sleaze bag, child rapist, Matt Gaetz, her cronieism earns her the spot tightrope walking as Trump’s Attorney General. As she swings from on high with former positions where in 2012 she was the lead attorney in Florida trying do overturn the Affordable Care Act (ACA)! Her, along with 19 other Republican led states sued in 2018 to overturn the provision in ACA that bans insurance companies from denying people with pre existing conditions, or raising their premiums due to them. Real lady for the people folks! The entire Republican Party seems to give zero sh*ts for regular working class people. As long as that black guy who was president legacy is discredited and looked down upon, that seems to be all that matters to them.

Bondi also has daredevil stances on opposing same sex marriages, she’s had interesting donation scandals as well. Rulings and cases that had mutual benefits for both the Circus Ringleader Tangerine Tubbster and herself. Complete loyalty to the top circus clown is the main qualification.

This brings us to our next attraction as head of Health and Human Services (HHS), the man who’s destroying the legacy of his family’s name. A man whose brain was partially eaten by a worm. His voice makes anyone uncomfortable, and he’ll saw and take home all sorts of roadkill. A guy who has more skeletons in his closet than a taxidermist, which he seems to want to be! The babysitter molesting, antivaxer himself, Robert F Kennedy Jr.

His anti vaccine stance is solely responsible for a measles outbreak in the pacific that killed hundreds. His too priority as head of HHS seems to be removing fluoride from the water supply. A credit to Americans oral health in comparison to the rest of the world. If conspiracy theories were wealth, he’d be a rich man. Oh wait! He already is. With his anti vaccine policies, no child will be safe.

Thats it for now folks! With more to come! There’s plenty of entertainment to go around in this 3 ring circus! So stay tuned. And catch us next time on the, Carnival of Corruption!!!l

[tezzbot]

Okay.. so... fairly long post under the cut with the sort of background to my Sonic Underground AU!! If anyone's interested fjdgv I have thought about it a Lot lol

So basically, The background is that Eggman has definitely been up to shit since before Sonic was born lol and one of his sort of things when he I guess started out in villainy ? was he started trying to claim land and take over so that he could build his cities and theme parks and factories and what have you and rule over everything. So, after claiming some untouched land he started attacking “Mobian'' settlements, (not sure whether to stick with Mobian or what but the word gets my point across so I’m using it now sfgdh) and I guess started working his way up until he found Christmas Island, which is the small Kingdom Aleena ruled over at the time. This caused the Kingdom to fight back and started a war with Robotnik. However. Obviously the warzone was no place to be raising the Very recently born heirs to the throne (the three who would grow up to be Sonia Sonic and Manic, they might’ve had different names back then lol) and so Aleena with a Very heavy heart sent the three Far away, they had them sent to a dinky little orphanage in a fairly distant zone, intending to pick them back up when the war was over.

Unfortunately, Very early on in the triplet’s stay at the orphanage, when they were still practically babies, an unfortunate cot placement led to Manic being kidnapped sometime in the dead of night (don’t ask why they did it I just think it’s funny love and light). He was taken to a nearby city, and somehow managed to endear himself to Ferral, the leader of one of the larger sort of crime rings active there. This is where he learned to get by and live and thrive, little crime family they love each other and rag on each other so much smile smile smile.

Sonic stayed in the orphanage a lot longer than Manic, but doesn’t really remember his time there all that much. As soon as Sonic figured out how to, he ran. Ran as fast and as far as he was able. Ran until he had no idea how to get back. But he'd not a guilt on his conscience. He was free, for the first time felt truly free. He learned how to survive on his own and met a little two tailed fox cub and his life played out pretty much exactly the same as it does in the main line continuity :)

Sonia is the only one of the three who has any memory of staying in the orphanage and was the only one to leave there by regular means dgfhfg. At about five years old, she was one of a few girls from across the continent to be chosen to attend and live at an all girls school where they would grow into proper ladies™, being taught etiquette and manners and so on. She managed a fairly cushy lifestyle here but was never truly happy there. She obviously has her besties like Mindy, but it always felt far too restrictive and (figuratively) cold. So while she does do well there, she is slightly prone to getting in trouble and feels kind of belittled and invisible among her peers at times

So in the triplet’s maybe 3rd year? The war on Christmas Island ended and the Mobians were unfortunately forced to go into hiding. Aleena made it out and went into her own hiding in the form of laying low in a residential area in a nearby city, and attempted to blend in there for a few years before making the trip to finally reunite with her children. Unfortunately by the time she gets there, all three are gone :( Even though the orphanage may know where Sonia is, she feels as though she has failed all three as their mother and wouldn't be able to face any of them (despite the fact they're like. 6 year olds lol), and so retreats back to her city home.

Until, over a decade later, Aleena sees the world renowned hero Sonic the Hedgehog that she hears so much about, (maybe he’s just saved that part of the city from a badnik attack or something like that) and there is just… something about him that is so uncannily like her Bernie… His heroism and humility right down to his mannerisms, the being blue also adds to the effect. And… Aleena is not one to get her hopes up, but the chance of this being one of her missing children after all these years…

Then I’m thinking maybe, she is wearing the equivalent of the three medallions and, maybe as she gets closer to Sonic one of them has some sort of magical reaction ? or something I’m not actually sure. But something DOES confirm to Aleena that This is one of her kids oh my god!! And he’s just like his (other) mother… Aleena gets overwhelmed and ends up not talking to him. Sonic maybe notices someone in a long flowy jacket running away from the crowd, but gets distracted by the many other thankful citizens around him to really take note of it lol

This is when Aleena writes her letter to Sonic. She looks him up, tries very hard to find out where he lives. Ultimately coming up with nothing she’s like IS MY BOY HOMELESS?? But then what comes up eventually is a plethora of small garages and laboratories under the name Dr. Miles Prower and is like Oh! An apprentice maybe :) lol and so she rolls the dice and chooses one of those locations at random and hopes her message gets to him soon.

This is just the leadup to what would be the "main plot" of the AU and I do have more for it!! So if this like. Text based way of explaining my ideas is alright I can share more from the google doc if ppl are interested!! And maybe I'll doodle some stuff for it here n there who know (seems likely tho lol)
