#TF fan theory

About the 13 primes, I'm guessing Solus isn't the only female. I mean, quite a few people agree. The movie didn't tell us anything about their pronouns, but Sentinel referred to them as brothers and sisters, so it's a possibility.

Especially when you look at the designs on the trade cards, it seems like six of them could be female, including Solus, Amalgamous, Liege Maximo, Onyx, Quintus, and Alchemist.

Liege Maximo's design feels more like a female character than male, Amalgamous doesn't seem to be gender specific, and I'd love it if really Onyx is a girl. Alchemist could be "she", especially since Elita got the Alchemist's T-cog. and Quintus would be fifth daughter of Primus, which makes sense her name is Quintus.

Based on this, 7 of the primes are male and 6 are female, so it's not a bad gender ratio. I'd like to see an official non-binary included, but well, it's kind a neat.

”They’re not called the Nublar Six because they survived, they’re called the Nublar Six because they’ve suffered.”

I stayed up last night drawing all of their hybrid refs are you proud of me …

The hybrids go as followed!

Darius — Gallimimus Brooklyn — Tyrannosaurus Rex Yasmina — Deinonychus Sammy — Sinoceratops Kenji — Carnotaurus Ben — Ankylosaurus

Everyone but Brooklyn has meaning behind their dinosaur because. IT WAS SO HARD PICKING ONE OUT FOR HER. So I was like, fuck it, make her Rexy or something idk.

Little thought about Scraplets...

According to usage of word ,,scrap,, in TF media. It is like a whole curse word. Strong one.

Therefore, naming these parasites 《Scraplets》 sounds for Cybertronians just like if humans name mosquitoes 《f**kers》 instead. Sounds hilarious, but it actually occurres to be so. Scrap is a curse word, then scraplet is another one curse word formed from previous.

I will be glad if you share your opinion in comments

Wild theory about Starscream

Okay, so hear me out. In the preview for the upcoming Transformers #13, we see a flash of Starscream's past from before the war, when he was still friends with Jetfire, and another flier named Genvo. He has blue optics instead of his usual red, he goes by the name "Ulchtar" (which, in a deep cut, was his preliminary name before Bob Budiansy settled on Starscream), and, most surprising of all, is kind to smaller and weaker creatures than himself, as we see when he stops Genvo from killing the turbosects, and openly admires them.

The question on everyone's minds is, of course what the hell happened to change Starscream from this kind, friendly individual into the most vile version of the character in years?

My crazy idea is this; nothing happened... because Ulchtar is a red herring. He's not actually the future Starscream... Genvo on the other hand is.

Here's what little we know about Genvo; he's already a Decepticon, he has red optics, and he's more than willing to kill smaller creatures, as he was about to kill the turbosects before Ulchtar stopped him. At some point in his life, Genvo will adopt Ulchtar's paintjob, and change his name to Starscream.

When ya think about it. What did B do?.

When Orion and D meet him, he says he got transferred between all his jobs? But it seems to me as if you mess up once you get fired? Like elita did.

What did this little yellow crack head do for all his jobs? What was his original and what in primus name did he do to be put all the way to sub LVL 50? More importantly who did? There'd be at least some bot who'd question where he's gone?

Dany’s vision of Rhaegar in the HotU

So, I want to beat an already dead and over-beaten horse, and talk a bit about Dany’s vision of Rhaegar in the House of the Undying.

Now, I want to preface it by saying that I know this subject has been talked about thousands of times and it’s boring and tiring to talk about the same shit over and over again, but I just saw “Rhaegar is a prophecy-obsessed groomer/rapist” discourse on my twitter feed and thought I’d toss my two cents in.

Firstly, let’s look a bit at this vision as it appears in the books, shall we?

Viserys, was her first thought the next time she paused, but a second glance told her otherwise. The man had her brother’s hair, but he was taller, and his eyes were a dark indigo rather than lilac. “Aegon,” he said to a woman nursing a newborn babe in a great wooden bed. “What better name for a king?”

As we can see here, Dany, on her quest to find her children, stumbles upon this little moment long past. The text tells us that the three people shown here are Rhaegar, his wife Elia, and their son Aegon.

“Will you make a song for him?” the woman asked.

“He has a song,” the man replied. “He is the prince that was promised, and his is the song of ice and fire.” He looked up when he said it and his eyes met Dany’s, and it seemed as if he saw her standing there beyond the door.

This passage specifically has been interpreted numerous times. The text tells us that Rhaegar thought that his son, Aegon, was The Prince that was Promised. However, Rhaegar looks up when he says the prophecy, and looks directly at Dany, as if talking to her.

This to me reads as not-very-subtly being told the answer to the prophecy. Dany is TPTWP, as the author tells us through vision-Rhaegar. Thus, she is made aware of the prophecy, part of which we can find in the title of the book series.

I’ve seen the theory that Rhaegar seeing Dany was a time-space continuum bubble, of the present looking at the past, or, for Rhaegar, the present glimpsing at the future. How I see it, however, is that when he says those fateful words, and looks up to meet his sister’s eyes, he becomes both the gods’ and the author’s channel to make Dany and the reader aware of the answer to the prophecy. He sceases to be just a vision of the past and becomes the gods’/R’hllor’s voice, informing Dany. He tells her about the PTWP prophecy, because she is TPTWP!

Thus, when he continues with this,

“There must be one more,” he said, though whether he was speaking to her or the woman in the bed she could not say. “The dragon has three heads.”

we can infer that he’s saying this to Dany, because the gods want her to know this (and the author wants us to know this).

Mind you, these are visions, not just excerpts from the past/present/future. The conversation as it’s shown might not have taken place exactly like this, if it ever did. With how abrupt the cut from Rhaegar saying this to him going and playing the harp, I think he’s never said those words himself. Again, I believe that, in that moment (given that “There must be one more” and “The dragon has three heads” do not tie at all with the PTWP prophecy), it’s the gods using this vision of him to tell Dany (and the reader) an important message.

I shall say it one more time, just to be perfectly clear: IT’S NOT RHAEGAR TALKING ABOUT THE THREE HEADS AND A THIRD CHILD, IT’S THE GODS!

“There must be one more”, because Rhaegar has three children, not just two. Dany is fated to meet Rhaegar’s third child (and very probably fall in love and marry said third child, but that’s another overly-beaten, dead horse), and we as readers have been getting clues about who this child is since book one.

In no passage is it stated or implied that Rhaegar sought to have another child. He doesn’t go on and say, “When the maester has cleared you, we shall try for a third.” or “Because you can’t get pregnant again, I shall look for another woman to bear my third child.” The theory that he wanted another one, presumably a girl, to name her Visenya, is just that, a fan theory.

“The dragon has three heads. There are two men in the world who I can trust, if I can flnd them. I will not be alone then. We will be three against the world, like Aegon and his sisters.” (ASOS, Dany VI)

It’s clear (or it should be) that “the dragon has three heads” it’s specifically for Dany to know that there are two people out there whom she can trust and with whom she shall stand “against the world, like Aegon and his sisters.”

It’s not about Rhaegar thinking that his children are “the three heads of the dragon”. It’s about Dany. You would think it’s obvious given that it’s her chapter, but whatever.

can i spend a hot minute rambling rq? wait fuck you im doing it

So we all know the trans wolverine stuff exists, but sadly, some seem to believe that the trans wolverine hcs stem from it just meant to be a sex thing (a guy with a pussy is pretty hot but that's not the point of this) when in fact we can theorise more sfw on this too

Mutants in general have been seen as an allegory for both disabled communities (might just be a me and like five other people thing but ehh) and queer people due to being outcasted and othered by "normal" people. Wouldn't it make sense that a majority of them have some connection to the queer community, especially someone who went through clear changes in life... perhaps the Wolverine, who's gone through pretty dramatic changes to be able to be 200 years old. And trans people can go through pretty dramatic changes to feel comfortable in their gender.

Logan has been canonically cloned. In cloning, the clone is an exact genetic copy of the original person/source of DNA, down to chromosomes and the like. Logan's clone came out as a little girl referred to as Laura. It would make sense if, perhaps, Logan wasn't all that he looked like on the outside. Perhaps he transitioned on a physical level, with bodily organs and hormones and the like, but if there wasn't a Y chromosome in his genetic makeup? That changes everything with a clone, and that would be a very good reason for Logan's clone to be female and not male.

Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk, have a great day.

WHAT NOW.

[nightmare-foundation]

This is going to be a somewhat random ranty vent post that honestly I need to get off my chest

Recently, I've been HATING the theory section of the fnaf fandom.

Something I've noticed is that people really, REALLY hate when you suggest something new, or suggest a different angle to see the series from, especially about the recent games. And this issue isn't new at all, afaik it's been a thing for at least a year, if not longer.

I've seen many times where people get straight up attacked for their theories (i.e. matpat, fuhnaff), and I've actually experienced being full on laughed out of conversations for suggesting something that MAKES SENSE. Several times, actually.

And this is like... a huge issue in the fnaf fandom. And a surprising one too! This is the fandom that, at one point, FULLY believed purple guy was golden freddy, or that SL was an adult club with sex robots before it came out. At one point, Scott couldn't hide ANYTHING from the fandom! People got things right every single time, and every theory was considered and respected, even crazy ones! And I was THERE to see this happen!

But now you suggest that a few characters might parallel each other, a very common literary trope, and you get DOGPILED.

Literally everyone debates over everything and can't agree on a single thing. Is glitchtrap William or the Mimic? Are the kids robots or not? Is burntrap the mimic or not? Who the hell is the hw2 protagonist??

And then you dare suggest something out of the norm, like for example, glitchtrap is neither William OR the mimic- and you get yelled at and laughed out of the conversation, regardless of how much sense your theory makes.

Like, what the hell?? Making crazy theories is what helped the fandom make sense of the original games! Now everyone's too scared to bring up things that MIGHT be a little silly, in fear of it becoming miketrap 2.0 (despite the theory MAKING SENSE at the time).

Like... christ, people. Let people theorize and actually respect other people's theories. There's many theories that I don't agree with, i.e. Mikevictim, yet I don't make them the laughing stock of the fandom.

Be respectful people. Quit being assholes. It's really not that hard.

there are always like a billion ppl at presidential rallies but i have never heard someone say like "i'm going to the presidential rally later" or "i just got back from the presidential rally"

[funnyscienceman]

so far it feels like all of the praise, or at least hype, for arcane is about playing around with the facts of the champions and not the actual meaning to their stories

im pretty sure this applies to other champs too but like theone foremost in my mind rn is everything to do with Orianna. people are going like oh, viktor will make her a machine! or singed won't be able to bring her back. Orianna's just dead or asleep in stasis and this is not at all the clockwork girl who tried to befriend an amusement park automaton because she was so lonely

it feels like this with warwick, with viktor, jayce even ekko and kinda jinx — season 2 has been nothing but. playground toys. make-believe in the sandbox. action figures are being mashed together but nothing of what made these characters Themselves is actually. Here.

idk it's 2 in the morning. this endless stream of praise is just bewildering. how haven't anyone else's brains been turned to mush by the rapidfire bullshit going on in each episode? shit just happens and there's no emotional weight to any of it. there's no time. off to mark the next thing on the checklist

ugh

TFone spoiler but a some of a headcanon post:

Megatronus Prime's T-Cog is the only one that is purple, unlike the others. It would be very ironic if the reason for this was because of his resemblance to Unicron, as in the Aligned continuity. His original connection to Unicron was due to the fallen setting, while TFone Megatronus is a truly great and tragic hero.

So think he was a beloved superbaby, born with the best of both Gods, Primus and Unicron, that would make a pretty cute and sad thing. He was very dedicated to his fellow Prime and loved by them. It's a shame he met such a miserable end.

jimin always talks about how scary jungkook is when angry and he worries himself constantly to make sure to do things correctly to not upset jungkook not to mention the amount of times jimin just gives up fighting jungkook because he knows jungkook is stronger than him. if that was jks reaction to something so trivial which mind you he didn't crack a smile or laugh or anything until jimin tried making things lighthearted- I wonder what jk is like in private for jimin to have these thoughts and worries 🤷‍♀️

I believe If TFP was 2D, we would see funny vehicle form expressions just like Animated did.

[interstellar-elf]

A pretty interesting Earthspark theory I have come across is one that states that Mandroid, in his year long space bridge journey came across Unicron at one point, and because of this will become Galvatron in the future, instead of Megatron becoming Galvatron.

It would be interesting given that we really don't know anything besides the fact that Mandroid got a new mech body, made friends with the Sharkticons and maybe fought the Quintessons. There's a good deal of stuff that probably happened from the time he stepped into the space bridge till the time he jumped out of it.
