I'm loving that Skybound Thundercracker just wanted some progress and in comes Shockwave with the most comically diabolical dogma imaginable

Meanwhile Soundwave is going hard with the delusions

POV you're an alien robot but this kid's dad died and his soul mixed with yours so now you're being tormented by memories of raising some kid against your will

That’s it, I’m continuing the meme.

Or 4 volumes hopefully.

rambles about shockwave(s) below:

people tend to think shockwave is "emotionless". anger is an emotion, though, and every iteration shows it.

the correct way to describe shockwave would be "apathetic"; put it's important to note that doesn't automatically make him indifferent. for example, Prime shockwave is the most apathetic and indifferent, he just does stuff for logic. Animated shockwave is pretty apathetic, but not indifferent. he has strong feelings regarding the autobots, so much so he wants them to go extinct and makes a point to mock them when engaging in conversations. now, skybound takes that to a whole new level. i think he is similar to Animated in his motivations, the difference being that HE is in a position of power and is a sadist. it makes him so much scarier.

the kick Animated gets out of mocking Autobots and the pure joy Skybound feels when torturing them is different. for one, it is "payback" to the oppressive group that has banished them from their literal h o m e planet. for skybound, he is the one in power who enjoys the thrill of torturing of a "lesser".

thats the inspiration for this doodle came from. Animated and Skybound share lots of similarities: They're pretty emotional, they have humor (dare I say they are silly geese?), they want to extinguish the Autobots. But it's the source of their motivations that set them apart, and in my eyes, makes Skybound irredeemable-- and radiating with evil. Animated is more of a pathetic idiot who misses his home.

thank you for reading hehe. i think too much about shockwave
