#cybertronians are kinda scary

[transformers-synergize]

robots in disguise :)

Cybertronians are masters of disguise, easily able to integrate themselves into most alien societies. Especially ones that consist of other cyber life or heavly plated alien, things cybertronians can easily mimic. When unable to mimic the native life, bots will often take advantage of halo Forms technology, creating a near-perfect solid light replica of the native life. Cybertronians also have the built-in ability to pick up and decode languages just from hearing them. with Their vocalizer being extremely flexible and able to mimic the sound of other species, and if they desire, some can mimic the voices of specific individuals.

Scouts and infiltrators are usually able to figure out how to mimic the native life's behavior and better integrate themselves. Their disguises are often imperfect, but they're usually good enough not to cause any alarm, allowing these cybertronians to integrate themselves into alien societies undetected so they can insert themselves into roles that would give them the most power and influence. This allows Cybertronians to easily take other alien planets/societies out from the inside either to destabilize them so they become non-threat or to convert Their planet into a cybertronian colonies. But if an infiltration is unsuccessful, Cybertron has enough military might they can usually enforce their will on a planet by force, if need be.

During the war, due to Cybertron's unstable state, many Cybertronian colonies were able to break free from Cybertron's control, and many civilizations whose development was purposefully stifled were able to finally Advance without Cybertrons Influence.

Course, an infiltration campaign is not the reason why our little groups of stranded Autobots and Decepticons are stuck on Earth. So, the stranded bots don't have the same tools that an infiltrators might have. On earth, they can not mimic the native life very well, They are too small and often lack any plating, but they can mimic their vehicles and other mechanical devices, but that can only help so much. Neither side Possesses a haloform generator, leaving them reliant on native beings to perform certain tasks for them and help keep their existence hidden. Barely any Bots on either side had been on an alien planet before, and the ones that have only ever really been on Cybertronian colony worlds. But, one of the stranded Autobots is an ex-infiltrator and is more than familiar with dealing with unkown alien worlds. :)

I want a human to crawl into a decepticon and tear them apart from the inside. It's a shame I haven't seen it in fics yet. The horror potential is so good. Just imagine being a random decepticon soldier sent out to do soldier duties. You come across a lone human and decide to offline it while your buddies are doing recon or something. You fire at it but it just keeps jumping out of the way. Getting sick of it you decide to swish the organic into a red paste. You go for it but miss the squishy and trip miserably. Getting up you feel something on your lower back plate; it's the human. You scramble to shake them off but it's too late.

It's in your plating.

You can feel them bite and kick, wriggling in your body. It's painful beyond words and you beg for your fellow soldiers to do something, anything. They can do nothing but watch as you throw up energon and scream in agony. As sweet merciful death takes you after a what felt like hours you can't help but think the human is smiling with its cables in their mouth.

[cleverthylacine]

Just watched Ep 1 of Earthspark S2. And I'm furious.

Don't read this if you don't want spoilers. Or if you think the showrunners can still do no wrong, and are unprepared for the level of Incandescent Fury of which I am capable. But if you DO have spoilers for the whole season and understand my particular vibe, PLEASE read this and reblog with answers (but use the cut for the sake of my followers)...

Reasons why I'm mad:

A year goes by in which all of the stuff I was actually interested in presumably happened: dealing with GHOST, the Decepticons and Autobots cooperating, and also, Mo and Robby getting cool mech suits.

Then for no reason other than "Decepticons huh" the Decepticons apparently forgot their alliance, turned on Our Designated Good Guys (tm) and just randomly started trying to conquer and/or kill everything again. Or were they screwed over, yet again? I really hope so, not because I want them to suffer but because there needs to be a freaking reason why they turn on other Cybertronians when they are stuck on Earth. But I don't have a good feeling about it given the contemptuous attitudes displayed by Bee (as usual, because ES Bee is a fucking asshole) and Robby (disappointing, he wasn't like that before).

And we never did get to find out what the fuck was up with GHOST or why the Decepticons were all in jail (and no, "Decepticons huh" is not an acceptable reason--they have every reason to hate us.)

Breakdown is a terrible parent for no reason? BREAKDOWN?

The Chaos Terrans thing gives me the same willies that the Orcs in Tolkien (I am not a Tolkien fan) used to do. I am not comfortable with the eugenicist/ableist notion that people can be born corrupt and innately evil, especially not if it has something to do with HOW they were born.

Soooo... if you've finished the season (I know you've been posting a bit about it) is there any reason for me to continue?

Reasons I would continue:

Ravage continues to be basically the same Ravage I write, only much smaller.

RavWave (as a ship, not just platonic interaction, mostly because I would watch anything for that no matter how messed up)

Explanation that there actually is a reason why the Cons turned on everyone, and what that reason is. Did they want to put them back in jail? Did they want them to do forced labour? Did Megatron start whaling on Starscream again? I note Tara isn't around Con HQ, what does Tara know?

Quints are interesting and not just scary (the Quints in Cyberverse scared me more than many adult horror movie villains did, BUT they are also just kinda evil and mean and we have no idea why, which would not have been particularly interesting at all except for the fun of watching Hot Rod and Soundwave become the faction leaders while OP and Megatron were unable to be)

Chaos Terrans are not innately bad or do not need some mystical power of nuclear heteronormative family to make them good

The Decepticons get something out of the ending other than screwed

We find out more about Dot and Megs

Some Cons are good parents

More Tarantulas and Nightshade content

Hashtag continues to have a relationship with Starscream that affects the plot as it develops

We are actually told what happened during the year they missed

Reasons I would not continue:

Cons are just bad because cons are bad.

Ravage is Soundwave's daughter or pet or in some other way not actually a grown-ass adult Decepticon officer, making Soundwave a father who raises child soldiers or a guy who runs dogfights, which is not cute even if he is snatched af

(they don't have to be lovers though my shipping heart was pleased when their PDA in the deleted scenes embarrassed Starscream, but she has to be a Real Independent Person who could be someone's partner if not his)

Chaos Terrans are innately bad until "saved" by the Power of Love And the Nuclear Family (or just innately bad)

Emberstone continues to be Allspark Mark II so why even change the name?

Bee's incredible assholery is never called out (it's not funny when a starving person accidentally kills their starving teammate due to a mistake they made because they were starving)

Only Autobots and people who form nuclear families can be good parents

Everyone being friends with the cows goes to the PETA place

Cons get nothing but screwed

Please tell me this series hasn't gone where I was afraid it would. Or let me know that it has so I can decide if it's going to be so bad I'll be mad the whole time like I was in Ep 1.

Warning: anyone who clowns on this post to be a RavWave anti or say "The Decepticons are supposed to be pure evil, duh!" will get blocked.

[aggressively-crying]

Probably bad transformers animated headcanons

Bumblebee listens to 100 gecs and uses TikTok. Both of which he does with his speakers turned up. In public.

Prowl has considered buying a fur suit but stops himself every time he's about to go through with it.

Optimus purposefully misuses slang and memes to watch the crew members that know what the terms mean die inside. Even pronounces them wrong for extra flavor.

Ratchet watches soap operas. It started out as simply being curious as to what trash the humans consider good stories but then he got legitimately invested.

Sometimes Bulkhead tries eating human food just because it looks really really good, but it always inevitably tastes kinda gross because he wasn't meant to process that kind of material. He wants to find a way to convert it to energon but until that day comes, he's forced to simply stare and long for it.

The repair crew has movie nights once a week with Sari, both to get a better understanding of human culture, and as an excuse to hang out. Every once in awhile they accidentally pick a movie that they don't realize Sari probably should not be watching until it's too late. They do not speak of the Friday the 13th incident. Or the time Sari picked Coraline and Optimus had to leave halfway through.

In that vein, after realizing how jumpy he was about spiders on Halloween, Optimus actually tried giving himself a degree of exposure therapy so no harmless tiny arachnids needlessly die by his axe. Now he at least TRIES to bring them outside with a cup and a piece of paper, but he's not above just asking Bulkhead to do it instead.

Ratchet has taken to finding old junker cars and trying to fix them up in his spare time. Their makeup is painfully simple compared to Cybertronian anatomy, and it's not like he has to worry about what happens if he can't fix one fast enough. He still thinks just selling spare parts on the open market is barbaric, but it's kind of therapeutic for him to just work on something like that without the stress of having someone's life or even just general well-being in his hands. He lets Bulkhead repaint them when he's finished.

Sari does NOT actually know how sex works. At least, like, not accurately. The version of it she told to Optimus was wildly off-base, but still juuuust close enough to freak him out.

Similarly, Prowl has observed nature long enough to get a sort of incomplete idea of how all that goes down, and has come to the conclusion that organics universally lay eggs.

Bumblebee plays horror games with the lights off just to prove hes not chicken, and then has horrible nightmares for a week straight. He also fully believes in every video game creepypasta/myth you tell him, and swears up and down he's seen Herobrine.

Bulkhead is terrified of mice because he doesn't understand how anything can be that teeny tiny and he heard they can chew through metal like some kind of freaky organic scraplet. He gets nightmares about Ratchet opening him up and finding a whole colony of them chewing on his wires.

Sometimes while Megatron was just a head in Sumdac's lab, he'd be bored enough watch whatever was on TV between schemes and naps. The only thing he would ever admit he liked was wrestling because he felt at least a little vindication watching the pathetic organic wretches beat the slag out of each other. That and it reminded him a bit of his gladiator days.

Shockwave is a pretentious energon tea drinker and has whatever the Cybertron equivalent of a loose leaf tea infuser is. He INSISTS it's objectively better and whatever the more normie type of energon is simply cannot compare.

Lugnut has date nights with Strika but they usually start off as sparring matches that get juuuust a little out of hand. He would not have it any other way and loves when his big scary wife throws him across the room and into a wall, then immediately rushes over to check if he still functions. It may be the concussions, but he swears she looks like a holy being towering above him from where he's slumped over on the floor.

Blitzwing is actually pretty functional from day to day. He's had his multiple faces for long enough that he knows how to cope with them and work with them. Sometimes he has poor impulse control, and sometimes he can't stop himself from feeding his anger, but overall he's actually pretty good about keeping himself in check. He just leans into the whole "crazy" schtick because he knows that's how others see him and no matter what he does, he's not gonna change their perception. It's sort of a spite thing when he annoys people with it, but it's also kind of a self deprecating cry for help that he's REALLY hoping someone will eventually pick up on.

Starscream is only a Decepticon because he wanted to pursue acting but nobody would hire a Warframe. He sought out fame and adoring fans in the gladiator arena, and he got what he was after until Megatron kicked his skid plate and Starscream was suddenly no longer the popular seeker heartthrob bad boy, but a laughing stock who fell when someone bigger and stronger clipped his wings. He originally joined Megatron with the intent to climb the ranks and snatch his following out from under him, but then the war broke out and his whole plan was thrown off track.

No Cybertronian is 100% okay with Earth vehicles looking the way they do and not being alive. It's pretty creepy seeing what they think is just some guy carrying an organic around only to remember right, yeah, the organic's controlling him like cordyceps in an ant and he was never alive to begin with.

Blurr has to intentionally talk much slower than he would at his natural speaking pace just because nobody can understand what in Primus's name he's saying.

Between him, Jazz and the Jet Twins, it's actually kind of a meme on Cybertron that the elite guard badge messes with your speech synthesizer because Sentinel is the only member that speaks even slightly normally.

Jazz once attempted to show Sentinel a nature documentary that Prowl recommended. Sentinel proceeded to purge his fuel tank about five minutes in and forbid jazz from watching that filth outside his own quarters.

Both of the jet twins play fortnite whenever they're on earth and come up with the nastiest incomprehensible insults they can to spam into the microphone because they think that's just part of the game that nobody is taking seriously rather than unbelievably toxic people having mental breakdowns at losing.

And finally,

Cybertron has its own cryptids and urban legends: a long, serpentine beast, as long as 60 Warframes that slinks through the oil of Iacon's aqueducts. A jet black cybercat with three tails that will take your spark if you look it in the optics for too long. A shuttle painted in neons, appearing at the station on its own when there is only one transformer at the station, speaking honeyed words in a voice that sounds too familiar, and promising to bring you home safe, but keeps driving and never stops until you're in stasis or offline. A spectral figure that haunts the underground tunnels that few dare traverse, keeping to the shadows and darting out of sight, but you can always hear their engine revving, and always hear their anguished wails. A frame-bare mechanical avian, practically skeletal, that circles over the sea of rust, massive in size and always waiting to swoop down on unsuspecting mechs. They are spoken of in hushed whispers, none know for certain whether they are real or simply fiction. Most think it's silly to believe in such things, but the superstitions around them persist.

[tfp-is-my-lifeblood-lol]

As a crossover made-up scenario request: TFP x TFRB?

Arce finds out that Bee has been scaping at night out the base to an island that even Jack didn't know existed. Optimus tells her that is a ¨secret mission¨ but Arcee feels that something is wrong. So one night, with Jack at her side they follow Bumblebee finding out about Griffin Rock.

Maybe this can have some gay moments with Bee and Blades, Heatwave questioning Arcee about Cybertron, and Jack being a big brother to Cody?

please?

Ooo this is fun! I've always loved the idea of the Rescue Bots being revealed to the whole team. Especially since only Bumblebee and Optimus seem to know about them (and possibly Ratchet, since he's got a few lines implying he knows. I headcanon that he does :b)

I don't really write romance (I'm kinda aroace-ish, so I don't really understand how to write romantic stuff) so the Blades and Bee part might be kinda boring and brief. I apologize in advance for that. Also, I wish I could add more Rescue Bots humans, but it was getting too long. But yeah! Enjoy!

Arcee and Jack sneaking to Griffin Rock

-Arcee would be up late at night, since she forgot to finish her latest mission log (Arcee had been fighting Airachnid, so she was more focused on her rage than anything else).

-She'd start writing using one of the base's computers...but suddenly, she hears the groundbridge open. She sees Bumblebee leave, but he doesn't notice her. Every night after that, she secretly watches him sneak off

-One day, she asks Optimus: "So, where does Bee go to, every night? Does he think I don't see him sneaking through the groundbridge?"

-Optimus explains: "Bumblebee attends to secret missions on a remote island...it is a mission that does not concern the Decepticons, and thus, is not our main objective."

-Arcee turns to Jack: "Did you know about this?"

-"No clue," Jack answers. "Maybe Raf knows?"

-She turns to Raf, who seems vaguely upset. "Bee...never told me." Says Raf.

-So Arcee's like: "Hmm..." She finds it suspicious that even RAF wouldn't know.

-Later, Jack tells Arcee: "You know...we COULD discretely follow Bee through the groudbridge, Miko-style. See where it takes us."

-"Jack," she says. "We're crossing a groundbridge to who-knows-where. It could be dangerous."

"What if there's scraplets?" Jack teases. "I'd hate for you to be face-to-face with scraplets without a non-metal human companion."

-Arcee smiles, finally caving. She lets him come along. "Fine...But! Don't tell Optimus."

-Jack: "My lips are sealed."

-Meeting the Rescue Bots is an experience and a half. Arcee is FURIOUS at first: "You're telling me Optimus has been hiding a secret team of Autobots this ENTIRE time, and never bothered to mention it to us? I thought we were 'outnumbered!"

-But once she gets to know them, she realizes...maybe they're not QUITE ready to fight Decepticons, yet. Secretly, she thinks they're kind of softies. Except for Heatwave, that is.

-Boulder paints a portrait of Arcee to honor her visit. She takes it home with her, and is very grateful.

-She tells Heatwave the story of when Jack travelled to Vector Sigma, and when Megatron rose the dead on Cybertron.

-Heatwave is like: "So...there aren't any zombie Cybertronians coming here, right?"

-Arcee replies: "...Not unless Megatron decides to get his ugly servos on more dark energon."

-"DARK ENERGON?" Blades whimpers. "Isn't that...like...the scary Unicron blood that turns everything into a monster?" He shutters. "It's like one of those Earth horror movies, but in REAL LIFE!"

-He pauses noticing that Bumblebee's watching him. If he were human, he'd probably be blushing. "Uh...I mean...BUT I'm NOT scared..." There's an awkward silence. "...Well, I'm scared to a normal degree."

-Bee lunges at Blades to tease him, letting out a buzz that probably translates to "BOO!"

-"AHHHH!" Blades screams, and Bumblebee laughs.

-Jack finds himself to be very protective of Cody. "Whoa- Are-are you sure the Rescue Bots would be ok with you climbing up there?" He questions, as Cody tries to climb Frankie's robot T-rex, "Trex."

-"Sure!" Says Cody. "Trex was built to be ridden. He can also serve coffee, and dance!"

-"Of course," Jack replies sarcastically. The technology on Griffin rock is so strange.

Conversations That Would Happen

The Suit Life of Jack and Cody (I'm so sorry, I couldn't resist making that joke LOOOOL😭)

Cody: "So, what's it like working with Optimus?"

Jack: "I-incredible, really. To be honest, sometimes...I don't really think I'm worthy."

Cody: "Well, I think you're worthy, Jack. Fighting a spider-bot, restoring the Vector...Sigma...thingy... that's NOBLE! I wanna be like you, someday!"

Heatwave and Arcee

Heatwave: "Where'd Chase go?"

Arcee: "Not sure. I was just telling him the story of how we snagged the Energon Harvester from the history museum. Chase took off driving before I could even get to the good part."

Chase, rocking back and forth in the closet: "So many violations of the law. SO MANY VIOLATIONS OF THE LAW."

Heatwave: "Congratulations, Arcee. You broke Chase."

Bumblebee and Arcee on the way back to base, through the groundbridge:

Arcee smiles and elbows Bee.

Arcee: "Blades likes you, too, you know."

If Bumblebee was a human, he'd definitely be blushing.

[yoayoaa]

YELLO AGAIN!! I was wondering if I could request a cybertronian! Y/n that's kinda like a sheep as their alt but they can also transform into a wolf as their other alt but rarely and Y/n is shy on the outside but scary on the inside! I'm also wondering if you can make it as a scenario for Transformer mtmte? :DD

HELLO HAHA, OF COURSE YOU COULD JAKFJA

Prompt: mtmte characters with a cybertronian!reader who has an alt mode of a sheep and wolf

Warnings: a bit of spoilers, im not using [y/n] in this :")

Notes: man this is basically wolf in sheep's clothing 😭😭 BUT ANYWAYS THIS IS FUN TO WRITE BUT A BIT CHALLENGING- although a bit short, HOPE YOU ENJOY! (Lets act that Overlord was successfully ejected from the lost light 💀)

The very last place you'd be expecting to be in was the Lost Light, but here you are now. Most bots there knew you for your alt mode, which resembles earth's sheep. Many said your shy and gentle behaviour matches your alt mode, little did they know you have a second one. Your rarely use your wolf alt mode, it was only used during dire situations...like right now. It was suppose to be a calm day, until Overlord broke free during one of Chromedome's interrogation and has left many injured.

Unfortunately you were caught up in the fight between the bots and the con, you were forced to use your wolf alt mode to defend yourself. Not many payed any mind other than the fact that theres a cyberwolf on the ship, also at the fact how you're more aggressive in this mode. Rodimus was finally able to momentarily stunt Overlord and was herded back by Fort Max. Still in your wolf mode, you saw bright orange pedes walking towards you. It was none other than Rodimus himself. "You have two alt modes? I thought your sheep alt mode was your only one." He asked, probably still baffled at the display you have shown.

"Well, i was never forced to use this mode anyways" You answered him. You can see a few bots looking your way, they're not used to seeing their very shy and gentle bot suddenly becoming a big bad wolf with a complete opposite vibe and looks. "I am never going to get used on how scary you are when you're always so shy..." Rodimus commented. You chuckled and jokingly said "Well get used to it, who knows you might see this again."

Meanwhile Fort Max just stood silently, not having a single comment 💀

[delicateartisantrash]

time to continue embarrassing myself with posting my noob voice acting practice because it's gonna serve as my record for looking back on things \o/

Transcript below the cut; playing around with an excerpt from a scene in Leaking Spark. I will learn to voiceact this scary Sparkeater looking mfer

This one originally started just as fucking around to try and figure out settings for setting up some custom voice presets, then I decided to work some narration in to test that out for the audio splicing practice, and then I realized I had cut some of the narration out to shorten my script up for reading said voice acting and forgot to put it back in. lmaaaao. oops. (which I only just realized while posting this, actually, now I know why it felt weird dangit XD oooooops. Missing all the scenery descriptions)

Good thing this one is just a practice not one I meant for the actual recording XD

kinda messy but for a literal first rough draft I like where this is going? :eyes:

I don't quite have his voice right, but it's so fragging close to where I want it.

SCRIPT PRACTICE: “Clarification: yes, as in proceed.” When you don’t immediately speak, he adds, “Re-clarification: deliver queries.” • “Ah, r-right. Um… So-- Sometimes, his, uh… his engine makes these funny noises, and I swear they mean something but he’s dodgy about… Explaining,” you start, the words beginning to come easier the longer you speak. “Is he… Is he okay?” you add, anxious. • “Query: what noises?” • “Sometimes it’s like… mechanical parts are moving in a way they shouldn’t, and jam up. His cooling fans kick on I feel like, a lot? Even when he’s just been parked in place for a while. Other times or at the same time, there’s strange harmonic sounds? Buzzes or tones, or like… Some of them are almost like a-- A soundless sound?” you try helplessly to explain. “I couldn’t possibly describe it to you but I can still hear it, sorta. You make them too, but not nearly so often, and they sound a little different,” you add, almost as an afterthought. • “Request: further describe observed tonal frequencies?” • “I don’t know how better to explain them, sorry. It’s like… Hearing something that’s almost there, but if someone else was talking, I probably wouldn’t hear it? It’s right on the edge of my ability to--” • A soft, tonal harmonic hum suddenly vibrates in the air around and through you, just the softest, faintest pulse. It sounds… nice. It even kind of, weirdly, feels nice, sort of soothing. It’s also fairly familiar. • “Yeah! Like that, except-- different pitches and patterns, but basically that,” you nod. • “...Statement: Anomaly discovered. Detection of Cybertronian bio-frequency signals; not typically displayed by human species.”

 Optimus, Bumblebee and Smokescreen x avatar reader?

Basically, the reader is secretly master of all four elements, and her animal guide is either a flying bison or a fire ferret. Nobody knows that she’s the avatar master of all four elements until she finds herself in a situation against the dissections, where she hast to defend herself and ends up, going into the avatar state in front of everyone in the area.

I’ll let you decide how they all react.

I’ve got this post and this post about avatar reader too. This ended up being kind of a ramble but eeeeeh, oh well. I’ve already done Optimus in the other post, so I didn’t do him again.

~Smokescreen~

•Smokescreen had no idea about the fact that people like you (benders) even existed

•He’s pretty clueless already, and even though you’re kind of bad at hiding the fact that you’re the avatar, he still hasn’t realized anything weird is going on

•So when you go into the avatar state in the middle of a fight, he’s pretty freaking baffled

•He’s just standing there for a moment, staring at you in total shock

•You then throw a rock at a vehicon who’s coming at him, and yell at him to stop just standing there, which finally gets him moving again

•After the dust settles and the decepticons have retreated, you also come down from the avatar state

•You’re pretty exhausted and Smokescreen carries you back to the base, because you look like you’re about to pass out

•You don’t end up passing out, but you are tired and need some rest

•Your fire ferret buddy had been hiding at the base as it usually did when you went somewhere with the autobots

•But because it’s worried about you, it comes out of hiding when you’re brought to the base and it curls up on your chest while you laid on the couch

•Smokescreen has like a million questions, which he can’t refrain from asking because he’s too curious

•He’s worried too though, but he’s more curious

•You try to answer his questions to the best of your ability, but he has a fuck ton of questions, some of which are kinda of nonsensical but funny

~Bumblebee~

•You told Bee about the whole avatar thing a while back, and he took it pretty well

•Of course he asked you if you could show him what you could do, and you happily do so

•You have mentioned the avatar state to him in passing, but he’s never seen it because you’ve never needed to use it when he was present

•When you finally did end up in a situation where you had to use it, Bee thought it was badass

•Holy frack, you’re like a force of nature, like a tornado or something

•It’s quite honestly a bit scary how strong you are

•Of course Bee isn’t afraid of you, it’s more like what you could do if you decided you wanted to

•You’ve talked about the fact that even though you can bend metal, it seems your bending has no effect on cybertronians, which he thought was a bit of a bummer

•The two of you figured it was probably because they’re not earth based, and their metal has way different properties

•It would have been cool if you could have just disassembled the decepticons or bended them into balls of metal 

•That would have ended the war pretty quickly

•Bee also absolutely loves your little fire ferret friend and it has taken a liking to him too

•You’re glad your two besties get along too

Reincarnation AU:

Lil' Pea goes exploring out the open door of the Ark. He miraculously evades searchers and is an accidental stowaway onto the Victory. The Deceptacons are panicking when Prowl's spawn drops out of the vent onto Megatron's helm mid planing session. The strategic meeting divolves as Deceptacon HC trys to catch and comfort a verklempt sparkling. Little guy's adventure just got filled with big scary strangers with harsh voices.

Prowl and Optimus receive a strong worded message from Megatron chastising them for sending a sparkling into spy on a comand medting. In the background Soundwave is desperately playing a lullaby while while various Cons proffer toys, energon, and try to make humorous faces.

Poor Lil Pea is scared out of his mind, and the decepticons are kinda going crazy. Except Soundwave. He's a single parent of 5, a little bit of crying barely phases him. He sees these idiots trying to soothe the baby and marches over, snatches him up, and immediately starts doing the perfect bounce-rock-sway and playing the best Cybertronian lullaby. Puts baby up against his shoulder to rub his back and even, "Shhh, shhhhhh..." at him. He calms down pretty fast, thankfully, and he's returned home peacefully asleep with a tummy full of warm energon 😌

Prowl doesn't put him down for three days straight afterwards 🤭

What if Question? If Michael Bay ever decided to do a surprise finish movie follow up for the last knight, how would you want it to go? Some people have said they would have wanted it to go kinda like how transformers prime did. With Optimus dying at the end by sacrificing himself somehow, and Megatron being possessed by unicron. Or at least close to something like that, and cybertron being restored with hotrod as the new prime. Or something completely different, like optimus lives and cybertron and earth merges as one planet, and they coexist. And then there's the whole quintessa problem too. Personally I would have wanted unicron to be more threatening than he was in tfp or in rotb. Don't get me wrong, he was definitely intimidating and evil and caused problems, but Michael Bay being great at cinematic and live action director I bet he could have made him look and be real scary and lethal. What do you think? Also, which autobots and cons would you have wanted to be in it or seen?

Honestly there are a few ways I think he could have done it. I would have just been happy to watch another one.

But let's see. I personally don't want any of the bots to die. Even if it is Optimus sacrificing himself, I want them all to live happily. It would be cool if they could maybe get a life source from Unicron/Earth and take it to Cybertron to rebuild Cybertron. But I don't think Earth would survive that.

Perhaps they could come up with a way to keep Unicron dormant, and the bots live on Earth with the humans. Or like you said combine the planets, though again I don't know if Earth would survive that.

From the ending scene, I feel like Bay would have brought Quintessa back, and like you said she would control Unicron or use Megatron, but I think he died. That would have been interesting to see. I bet there would have been some shots where Earth pulled itself apart as Unicron woke up. That would be cool. Bay definitely would have made Unicron very deadly, scary, and world-ending.

There is the way it could have gone where Optimus sacrificed himself and Hot Rod became Prime, I would have loved to have seen my French boy become Prime. However, from the way I viewed the Bay Hot Rod character, I don't think Bay was aiming to make him Rodimus or a Prime.

Even though I wouldn't want a death, it would have made it emotional if Optimus died. Plus it would open things up for a new Prime.

I would have loved to see more Hot Rod for sure. I would have liked to have seen Wheeljack, maybe Ultra Magnus could come in and he would take over from Optimus.

Decepticon-wise, maybe Blitzwing, or Swindle.

What would have been cool is if they brought in the Titans or big-city Cybertronians. Maybe they could have come to Earth to live in peace and humans could have lived in them. Or they could be there to rebuild. Or they could have been used to fight Unicron.

Lots of Options.

Rough draft ref for Cloudy & Orange, my two dumb TFA OCs who still need actual names

Cloudy is actually the transformer in my icon, making the ridiculous facial expression!

There IS a story to go with these guys, though idk if I will ever write it or anything. Said story mostly explores a pre-war spot on the timeline, actually, so there isn't much interaction with cannon characters.

It goes about like this:

Cybertron has a semi-functionist caste system, and Cloudy is a 'war-frame' transformer literally manufactured BY the military, like a soldier ant. Cloudy is an experimental model from a line of attempts at biomimicry, to make soldiers that were even more effective, ferocious, and resourceful than normal

Cloudy is kind of like if the MILITARY commissioned a much more real, much more genetically engineered (which, I would like to note, I headcannon that basically all TFA transformers are genetically engineered; they come in different 'models' and 'upgrades'; and that just sounds a lot like 'we are genetically engineering ourselves and are at the brink of outright cladization' to me) 'cat' 'catboy' than one normally thinks of. Less 'cute NYAH!', more 'scary TIGERboy who could bite your arm off'

also, uh WARNING! (robot) cannibalism is touched on below a bit

Cloudy serves in the Cybertronian military (he was BORN there,,,), during which he is stranded on a ship after a battle goes pretty Bad. Cloudy is the sole survivor of this, and pulled through by drinking fuel from the corpses of enemies (MAYBE fallen allies too, dunno how dark I wanna go). I DO know that even just doing that to DEAD non-transformer enemies would be a big deal, since transformers normally live entirely on inanimate fuels like energon, oil, ect- so I imagine even drinking BLOOD would be indistinguishable from cannibalism to them. Cloudy is literally intentionally programmed to like the taste of blood and this stuff distresses even him (arguably even more so BECAUSE of that)

Eventually the war Cloudy was forged for (most likely conflict with the Quintessons) is won, and he gets to go planet-side while on stand-by. Cloudy tries to do that Civilan Life, but its kind of tough when everybody is smaller than AND and kinda scared of you. He makes friends with this more open-minded motorbike (Orange) while he's there.

(they meet when a disaster of some kind causes a building to collapse, and Cloudy lunges at the nearest way-too-tiny-to-survive-this bot (Orange) to shield them. They get split up after that since Cloudy gets knocked unconscious, and first responders drag everyone off the scene for medical attention. But when Orange next bumps into Cloudy, he's determined to actually talk to him and find out what this 'scary war-frame's' deal is. Which is good, because Cloudy is way too shy to initiate conversation like that, haha)

Cloudy's secret eventually gets out when investigations of the stranding reveal that all corpses had been exsanguinated and gnawed on, all rations exhausted, and Cloudy came back weirdly healthy for a guy who should have starved to death. He's then sentenced to 'you die fighting in the gladiator pits, OR you die right now!' Cloudy gets immediately shipped out to the pits on the spot, and then Orange follows him there because he is a stubborn, loyal little mother fucker.

From there the story is less defined, BUT I know both of them become Decepticons when THAT war breaks out, seeing as both have become quite sympathetic to 'yo the current situation on Cybertron is FUCKED!'

I would also like to note, by 'reptile handler trust-bond', I mean some kind of wacky queer platonic(?) relationship defined primarily by it's foundation of carefully earned trust. I'm not very good in the social department, gonna be honest, but I like animals a lot, so that was the best analogy I had. Cloudy and Orange's relationship isn't romantic, I wouldn't say? It's based primarily in how Orange is one of the very few people Cloudy, who is very distrustful, is willing to trust closely.

For shockwave!

15. Does this tf character ever make anything creative (e.g. writing, drawing, sculpturing)? If so, do they show other people what they’ve made?

16. What do you think this tf character’s opinions regarding humankind is?

THANK U FOR ASKING!! your ask game is super cool!!

im gonna go with tfp shockwave cause he's my fave. my version of him isnt that scary and evil he's just kind of a guy who likes to play around with science and engineering, doesnt know basic safety, and is bad at socializing. he's still kind of a cartoon type villain tho

15. ohh he's creative for sure. it's not always that obvious, but i do like to think that shockwave likes to create things for fun sometimes. about 98% of the stuff he works on are projects that will help the decepticon cause, but he does occassionally get a spark of creativity and decides to make something for himself. it's not art in a traditional sense, like poetry, music, etc, but it's enough to count as art (in my opinion)

the 'art' he creates may include stuff like: 1) creating little gadgets that have no practical use, they just look cool

2) playing with chemicals just to get some interesting reaction. like putting some liquids together just cause it makes them change colors in a pretty way or something

3) adding decorative designs to his creations, again, simply for the esthetics

ok ok i know these sound silly, but when you think about the fact that shockwave is a serious, 'logical' character and not someone artsy, these little actions DO count as creative! think about it!!

he NEVER shows others, tho. it's not that he's insecure about his craft, it's simply not something that he wants to share. i wouldnt say that the creative things he does are personal (he probably doesnt see any artistic value in his little projects, it's just for fun after all) but his art comes from feelings and thoughts deep within him that even he doesn't like to admit (like idk... the fact that he can be happy and enjoy something? no one should know that! 😡). basically, he's not comfortable showing his creativity to others, unless it's someone he knows for a long time and absolutely trusts, which isnt a lot of people...sigh hes so weird

16. oh he couldn't care less. like, fr. i mean if the decepticons want to transform Earth and eradicate all life including humans then he'll just... go along with it yknow? his main focus is helping megatron, it's all he really cares about....BUT! i do think that there's a chance he COULD develop some sort of care for humanity? i can't say it confidently, but i do think he would be able to connect with humans through his favorite things - science and technology!

human technology is WAY behind cybertronian one, but shockwave might find himself curious about it! well, to be specific, he would find interest in HOW humans came to their discoveries and research. humans are such a small, young species after all! how come they've done and discovered so much in so little time? (this is all relatively speaking lol)

of course, over time he would be interested in more than just human technology. he would also look into human history, art, language...probably anything regarding humans. if he's focused on something, he is focused A LOT. shockwave human hyperfixation real

eventually his slight interest for human science would turn into fascination and later... appreciation? maybe? it would take him a pretty long time and he would definitely need someone or something (preferably a human friend) to convince him to even look into human stuff, since he doesnt view humanity as anything important from the start... but yea! i like to think that this big purple mf would go from "humans small and weak and stupid and unimportant" to "humans small and weak...and kinda cool"

ahhh i can't believe i wrote so much omg.... embarrassing! 😞😞anyway yea shockwave is my fucking fictional fidget toy, whenever i'm bored i poke him and squish him in my brain

[tachyon-omlette]

So... Eda... huh? Wanna talk some more about him? I don't care from which continuity. (Although, I'm kinda wondering if you got something for RotB yet and if Eda's gonna be part of that one too. ^^)

OH I just now saw this, & yeah I do have some ideas for RotB Eda !

In my mind he's gonna err Bayverse but slightly less weird. Theropod legs & too many eyes & scary as all hell, but still concerned about the fate of the universe & more willing to befriend humans than Cybertronians

he makes it to Earth long before the Maximals & they don't even know he's there for the longest time - but Earth's incursion with Unicron likely woke him up, & now he's trying to figure out how to navigate existing on this new planet while doing his best to save the whole galaxy. to the best of his ability. he also gets sillay

(@cyberghost-scout)

It was a day or so since Diskdrive remembered his past self and reunited with his adopted cybertronian friends and fam. While the group was out, mainly to give the mini bot a good frozen oil treat before figuring out a way to connect both worlds for easier visits. The same bolt of blue lighting came, bringing in more bots and perhaps more mischief.

@cyberghost-scout

A Gaggle of small minibots coughed and wheeze as the dust settled around them.

"That was lovely.."

The first mused as he looked around the area and began to scan for any information on where he was.

"This place is a dump."

The second grunted irritatedly as he also took in his surroundings, obviously not impressed. He glanced over to The last two, The third mini helping the fourth and smallest of the group stand up.

"Where do you suppose we landed...? And where's blueberry?"

The third said as he dusted off his wings after helping the fourth.

" I do hope he's okay.. this place Is kinda scary.."

The fourth clung onto the third and peeked out from behind his wings.

third time posting (I'm totally very creative)

Spiderman villain rant edition, numero uno

Tombstone, a very scary mother fucker. A tall ass gang leader, sometimes drug lord, with impenetrable skin and teeth like a fucking shark, a very terrifying but awesome son of a bitch. In spiderman PS4, done absolutely masterfully... in into the spiderverse, he kinda, sucks.

in PS4, he is a tough bastard who spidey needs to make a counter drug to temporarily make his invincibility stop working so he can just subdue Tombstone long enough for police to arrive, and he tanks a bullet pointblank between his eyes, and then proceeds to casually stomp the skull of the guy who just shot him open. also, because I'm probably never going to get to mention this again, apparently not only is tombstone an amazing cook in the insomniac universe, but spidey knows this somehow, and my head canon is that before one of their fights, tombstone just decided to make food for spidey for whatever reason, and that is just hilarious to me. anyway, back to rant, in into the spiderverse, tombstone is just kingpin's henchman, who just shoots people a lot. that's it. he doesn't really do anything interesting, and it's dissapointing. I honestly didn't even really realize it was tombstone the first time I watched the movie.

It's always a bit dissapointing to see a villain or character in a movie and then like, kinda, dumbing them down? is that a good way to put it? like, making a character a basic goon rather than an actual character. like, a great example to me is Blitzwing in the Bumblebee movie. In the movie, he was just a common Decepticon seeker who was hunting Bee and gets killed immediately, they could have given him any name other than Blitzwing in the credits, there are so many other seekers they could have named him because he wasn't even named out loud in the movie. In every other iteration of transformers, Blitzwing is a triple changing sadistic badass bastard, sometimes with like cybertronian Dissociative Identity Disorder like in Transformers Animated. But he was delegated to just "Seeker number 13 that actually goes to earth to chase Autobots who escaped Cybertron" in the movie. and it just sucks to me. I'm hoping, I'm desperately hoping that Blitzwing is gonna come back in the new movies with his triple changing ability, and maybe with the split personality thing of the animated version of Blitzwing by somehow a human government using the bodies of Blitzwing, Shatter, and Dropkick for experiments or something.

oh shit, this was supposed to be about spiderman villains, lol. uhm, but yeah, seeing a cool character or villain be used as just fodder or a goon is kinda boring to me, and I hope it stops happening as much for movies and stuff, cause I like my cool characters, I want them to continue being cool!

also, in other news, apparantly the new flash movie sucks dick, and I'm not surprised, in fact I'm glad it's failing, and hopefully they'll finally catch Ezra Miller and put... them(? is that the pronoun they're hiding behind now? not that they deserve the respect of being called whatever they prefer, they lost that respect the moment they groomed several children into being drug addicts, and then ran from police the moment everyone found out about it) in jail.

anyway, that's it for today, make sure to drink some water, get some sun, and eat well everybody!
