First Christmas Gift

Look, Rodimus knew what it meant when he volunteered to be ship Santa, giving out presents to everyone. He even decided to graciously bequeath a Rodimus Star to the one guy he'd never given one before. But does Thunderclash have to look so thrilled about it, so happy and touched and, and, delighted? It's giving Rodimus the warm and fuzzies—er, the heebie jeebies.

My @secretsolenoid-revived gift for @aecholapis! Tried some new stuff on this, it was so much fun. I hope you like it!! <<33

Bonus: Roddy may not hate the guy anymore but he's still a lil defensive

Rules: shuffle your ‘on repeat’ playlist and post the first ten tracks, then tag ten people 🎶

Thanks for the tag, @lets-try-some-writing! I listened to all of the songs you listed (and previewed the Assassin’s Creed Valhalla soundtrack since my attention span is too short for a whole album at the moment). I must say, I like your taste in music!

Anyway, I’m going to have so much fun with this since some of the songs that came up are part of a yet-to-be-created playlist for my Soundwave’s backstory. 😏 10 songs from my ever-changing Dishwashing On-repeat playlist coming up. (Yeah, there’s a story behind the “dishwashing” name. lol)

The Assailant from Arcane

(Spotify | YouTube)

Gladiator!Soundwave stepping into the Pits of Kaon, ready to take on Megatron(us)

Light Em Up by Daniel Gunnarsson

(Spotify | YouTube)

I have this on my ‘To Be a Lost Lighter’ playlist, but my newest interpretations are Soundwave @ Shockwave in the first sequel to my Big Bang fic (platonic) and Orion Pax @ Shockwave in IDW1 (romantic, perhaps?)

Suffer by Harlen Chung

(Spotify | YouTube)

This one’s in my Chromedome playlist, but it applies to a variety of angsty situations.

Goodbye (from the series Arcane) by Ramsey

(Spotify | YouTube)

The angst of this song is immaculate; I love it so much. There is a very specific, heart-wrenching Soundwave scene I intend to write to go with it:

“I can hear the sound of a heartbeat before it goes out / Won't ever leave my memory of bloodshed all around / And I can see a tear on my father's face before it falls out / Oh my enemy, how could I have ever let you down? Oh

When all these trees saw us grow / Cut our teeth and break our bones right here / We'd play with shields made of stone / Share our dreams and sit on thrones, be still

'Cause I see smoke up ahead and I got steel in my hands, we will / Return like warriors, I swear that we'll find glory up ahead, tell me

Where is my home? / I don't recognize the faces anymore, oh / Where is my friend? / The one I've known since I was only just a kid

I think it's time to say goodbye / Goodbye, goodbye / Goodbye, goodbye, oh / It's time to say goodbye / Goodbye, goodbye / Goodbye, goodbye, oh”

A Sky Full of Stars (cover) by The Piano Guys

(Spotify | YouTube)

I highly recommend watching the YouTube music video for this, as the salt flats and visual effects add so much to the music. I strongly associate this cover with TFP Optimus in particular. ✨

Hopeful by ODESZA

(Spotify | YouTube)

Just cool vibes.

Legendary by Epic Soul Factory

(Spotify | YouTube)

This epicore(?) instrumental is in my Iacon playlist. The city was once the home of legends (both bots and stories), and this captures that vibe nicely.

㆔ by Aether

(Spotify | YouTube)

The word I’d assign to this song is “yearning.” It’s one of my all-time favorites.

Doves by We Are All Astronauts

(Spotify | YouTube)

I love this song so much. It only has 2-3 lines of lyrics—a quote by Carl Sagan—but the quote and the whole vibe of the song make me think of the hypothetical collision of Cybertroniankind and humanity and how we would most likely view each other:

“You’re an interesting species. An interesting mix. You're capable of such beautiful dreams, and such horrible nightmares. You feel so lost, so cut off, so alone. In all our searching, the only thing we've found that makes the emptiness bearable is each other.”

Playground (from the series Arcane) by Bea Miller

(Spotify | YouTube)

The undercity of Zaun in Arcane is very similar to how I imagine Kaon being like before the war. When I listen to the song, I have a scene playing in my head: A young, wary Soundwave wandering the streets of Kaon with Ravage that transitions to him walking those same streets as a gladiator with both Ravage and Megatron present—all three of them aware of the power they now hold. *cries in inability to art*

[autosuns]

Hi, hello, I hope you're doing well! 7, 15, 16 and 17 for the Love Your Fandom ask game, please

Hi Aecho thank you :) Back at you

7. your favorite tropes to read/write/draw

I think..... I think I'm just entertaining myself with literally anything that is a work of passion, meaningful and thought out, I don't think I care for tropes particularly. I do like reading or looking at art that studies a character or a relationship or is obviously done because an author is actively having brain worms.

15. the character that always makes you smile

The medics, obviously... Thunderclash, lambotwins, but I think this guy in here is worth to be mentioned in particular 👇

Sunder they will never make me hate you

16. a tiny detail in canon that you want more people to appreciate

It COULD be that transformers are inherently genderless and sexless, not in a denying women representation way, but a potential for more complex understanding of gender for an alien race of robots.

Maybe if i think of more I'll add more cuz i usually have a lot to say on that lol

17. a fandom tag that you track

Oh I track a lot of tags in general LOL. iirc sunstreaker, sideswipe for sure, rodimus, starbee, ambulon, pharma, thunderclash. Just from the top of my head.
