#he's like if Oppy got to go back home

[pumpkinrootbeer]

Thinking about Opportunity... Did you know they named an astroid after her. She was the first rover to travel the distance of a marathon and her mission lasted 55 times longer than intended. She literally WAS a completely new opportunity for Mars exploration. The team operating her were the ones who gave her the "Oppy" nickname. They had a whole playlist called Opportunity, wake up! for when they lost contact with her and sent over 1000 recovery commands. The last song they played her was "I'll be seeing you" by Billie Holiday.

oppie (cillian’s version) is a sub change my mind

i think oppie (cillian's version) is a freak in the sheets. (listen this is all just me daydreaming more about Cillian AS OPPIE just doing stuff BUT LIKE I DO SAY STUFF REFERENCING OPPENHEIMER KIND OF??? SO SORRY IF ANYTHING IS INCORRECT (tbh this ain't that freaky it's just me writing a short little random blurb lol) (also i sorta switch in and out of using she / you)... 18+ OBVIOUSLY MINORS DNI!!!)

i think he's probably more than happy to be a dom or a sub, he doesn't really care. I think he'd also be into being pegged by his woman or pulled around on a leash or slapped around. oppie is pretty open-minded and pretty eager to 'spice' things up. but this is all just me daydreaming

i can imagine you in the Los Alamos home, waiting for him in bed after a long day's work of telling men what to do. And finally... the time when he got told what to do... whether it be fuck her harder until his back aches or let him be the chew toy he usually was. she liked to joke she'd make him his own personal collar to go along with his clothes... and the thought of that did turn him on, not strange at all to him who stares into the making of the death of mankind. The idea of sex was something just as complicated and interlaced with deep intricacies we will never understand but also something more primal. Something that reminded him he was human. And fuck... staring into your sticky pussy you fiddle with as he starts to undo his tie was like frying every cell in that brain of his.

"No... keep it on..." You shake your head, fingers still drawing circles lazily on your clit barely teasing yourself as you lay there proudly for him. His eyes soaked in your body and how utterly breathtaking the sight of what lies in between your legs was. "I wanna pull you around on it..." "Well... yes, ma'am," He'll flare his nose in a tone of amusement as he tips his hat off to her and sets it down on the dresser as he unbuttoned his shirt. Robert would watch you in the mirror as you slid your sticky fingers to your thinly-veiled tits, slipping your fingertips under the lacy top and toying with your hard and incredibly sensitive nipples. You drove him crazy in the best of ways... in the ways he should be crazy. "Now don't look at me like that, bunny..."

"You're taking way too long to undo those buttons of yours..." You complain and he'll roll his eyes as he always does once he gets off his top pieces, he's undoing his belt and pants within a matter of seconds. His tie still around his neck as he stood fully naked and fully erect for you as you got up on your knees on the bed, perched up and facing him as you leaned in. You'd grab his chin and he'd feel how wet your fingers are. "Are you gonna behave tonight, daddy?" You asked, tilting your head as you yanked on his tie a little, enjoying the way he flinched.

"Yes, of course, my darling..." He nods desperately, mouth full of drool for your demands. "Tell me what to do and I'll do it... command me, I'm your slave." "Get on your fucking knees and beg..." You whisper harshly and then slap him across the face and he lets out a delightful sigh at the familiar burn and the handprint on his face. "You like that don't you..." As he collapses to his knees, Oppie nods and prays for you to give him something.

"Please... Y/N..." Oppie tries, head tilted slightly down as you lower your feet down to the floor and run your fingers through his short hair, treating him like a dog. "I'll be a good boy." You pulled his face to force him to look at your pretty pussy, close enough to smell but not close enough to taste... you were teasing him. "I beg of you..."

'Tsk Tsk Tsk' You shook your head with a smug grin on your face, swaying your hips and tantalizing him with his favorite view. "More."

"Darling," He pleaded, eyes so big and blue, he was defenseless to how he showed his emotions through the dread of the irises honesty. "Please let me taste you... I've dreamt about you in my head all morning and all afternoon..." "Dreamt of me?" You mused.

"In the daytime," He mumbles, trying to shake his head from your grasp like a feral dog trying to get at its prey. "I see flashes of you... pictures of you... traces of you everywhere... I see you in my mind wherever I go."

"How very romantic of you," You chimed, letting go of his hair to lean back on the bed and prop your legs up on his shoulder, spreading yourself out on display for him. His pupils expanded like black holes on the horizon of a dying sun that shone blue. "You can taste..."

No other words were said by him as he (for once) mindlessly dove in and buried his face into your wet cunt. Oppie wasn't sure there was a god up above but he knew this was heaven right here with his head between your thighs and your lips slipping his name loudly and endlessly.

He loved being bossed around, being possessed, it reminded him of his body, and for once not his mind.

??? did any of this make sense??? sorry??? lol

Thinking In Numbers

Oppie x Reader

A/N: as always, based on Cillian Murphy’s very fictional depiction of Oppie, if you don’t want to read it I’m not forcing to and if you do then please feel free to stick around.

This is the response to the poll from the other day, handling some problems arising from the couple’s age gap.

Warnings: mentions fo alcohol, age gap, world’s mildest angst with a happy ending!

You had been on his arm at a lot of fundraising events recently, trying to raise money for the causes that he supported, which meant that you had been spending a lot of time with Robert’s circle of friends. They were all amazing and very interesting people, the conversation was always incredible and you loved them, but you couldn’t help feeling a little like a fish out of water. You were only a philosophy student, in a sea of seasoned academics.

The first time that you really started to notice the difference in your ages was at the end of the summer semester. Both the staff and the students were organising parties and you didn’t know whether you should go and celebrate the end of term with your friends or go and have a far more civilised send-off for the holidays with Robert and the professors. For him there had never been any question that you would accompany him, despite your age he always perceived you as being too mature and sensible to enjoy the parties of your fellow students. He assumed that you were exactly like him at your age, unbelievably introverted and not seeing the point in all of the chaos. You did as he expected of you, and it was a lovely evening with the help of a few of Oppie’s martinis, but you had ended up following him towards the physics faculty who were now having a conversation that you had no chance of understanding. When you got home that night you called your friend’s house, making sure that she had got home from the student celebrations.

“You don’t have to worry about me y/n,” she chuckled, clearly under the influence.

“Did you have a good night?”

“Yeah, the boys decided that it would be a good idea to to try and raid the chemistry stock room so we ended up with impromptu fireworks, it was quite a show actually. One of them nearly blew himself up, but I think he’s alright now.”

“God, I wish I could have been there.”

“How was your evening?”

“Not too bad, it was nice to spend the evening with Robert but he ended up in a corner with the physics department so I was left to my own devices. He expects it of me though so I just do it for him. I’m sure you had a better evening than me.” Little did you know that Oppie was walking past the semi-open door, and heard every word that you were saying.

~

The next day you went back to the campus to pick up some books from the library that you wanted to look at over the summer. You bumped into a few of the boys that you had met over the year, all part way through their degrees just like you.

“How was the party with the old boys club y/n?” One of them asked.

“It was quite fun actually, a lot of interesting conversations. They aren’t all old men, you know.”

“Oppie’s alright, the rest of them can be a bit of a drag,” this came from Luke, who you knew took one of your boyfriend’s classes.

“I heard about your antics with the fireworks, I’m amazed that you’re all still in one piece. I’d take a drag over a near death experience!” You tried to joke back, though it was true that you would rather have spent the evening with them.

“Come on, why don’t you come out with us tonight, live a little. Do you want to be old before your time?” It was then that you felt a familiar arm wrapping around your waist. Looking to your side you were met with Robert, his face with the usual soft smile it wore whenever he saw you.

“Why’s she going to be old Luke?” He questioned, humouring the lads. He was closer with his students than many of the other lecturers at Berkeley and they felt that they could have a little banter with him as a result.

“All of the time that she…” Luke started.

“…Spends sitting at home reading books when I could be out with them.” You quickly cut him off, Robert didn’t need to be involved in this. Luke gave you a bizarre look and carried on talking to his professor, but you could tell that said professor was unsatisfied. Not long later, as you were walking away, he started questioning you.

“My love, what didn’t you want me to hear Luke saying back there?” You were walking back to his office to collect the papers he had left before heading to New Mexico for the summer.

“If you want the truth, they were teasing me for spending so much time with the faculty. It was all in good fun.” Oppie paused for a moment.

“It is true that you don’t spend much time with your own friends though. I have to admit that I heard you on the phone the other night, I never thought that I might have been pressuring you into anything, but I can understand now that I have.”

“It’s not that I don’t want to spend time with your friends, I really do. Sometimes I just feel like I want to do the sorts of things that normal students do.”

“Darling, why didn’t you say any of this earlier?”

“I didn’t want to make things awkward or make you to feel obligated to do anything that you didn’t want to do.” Robert sighed softly at that, turning and taking your face in his hands, looking down at you.

“My love, you can always tell me anything. You are too caring for your own good sometimes, you know that? This is my fault, I shouldn’t have been so shortsighted, so its up to me to make it up to you.”

“Robert, you don’t have to…”

“This weekend we’ll stay here, we’ll have some people over to the apartment, your people, and we’ll do whatever you want for an evening. You know what, I can clear out for the evening and leave you in peace if you like.” He could tell from your smile that you had other ideas.

“Or you could stay and join in with the madness, you do owe me afterall and I think you could make it up to me by proving to Luke that you aren’t an old man. Maybe then he’ll stop taking the mick out of me.”

“I could probably do with a good shafting anyway,” he acquiesced. “So, will you forgive me for being so hopeless.”

“Only if you cover up the raid the boys did the other day on the chemistry department.”

“What raid?”

“They have a habit of setting off homemade fireworks at parties.”

“They are not setting off fireworks in my house…” You stood on your toes then, closing the gap to silence him with a kiss.

“Dr Oppenheimer, my party, my rules!”

Fluff/WhumpTOBER Day 16: Ernest Lawrence x F!Reader

Day 16: Yes, No , Maybe/Necrosis Masterlist Warnings: GA, social drinking, two idiots in love Word Count: 754

From the moment you joined Berkeley’s faculty, you knew that your life would change. The atmosphere was wildly different from the one back home. College students are found anywhere you turn, discussing their work amongst their peers. Even the faculty members all hold themselves in higher regards than where you’ve previously worked. One of those faculty members included Ernest Lawrence.

Tall, broad shoulders, neatly combed hair that shines under the sun, infectious smile, firm handshake, and smart. He’s a tall drink of water and 7/10 females on campus can’t help but to swoon when he gives them the slightest bit of attention, including you.

As the year grew on, you and him got close, closer than just fellow staff. What were small smiles in passing, grew into friendly greetings that would end in full conversations, grew into lunches with each other in his office, grew into full blown invitations to dinner parties at his house. Eventually, every time you stood anywhere near him, his hand would always briefly find yours, touches lingering a few seconds more. And you don’t know what to make of it.

----------

The chatter of people echoes in your ears as you weave your way through Oppenheimer’s house. It was another one of his bi-monthly house “meetings” that always turned into social parties. Tonight was no different. In most cases, you seek out Ernest, sticking to his side to avoid any other communication, instead choosing to engage with him over anyone else, but despite his tall stature, it sure is hard to find him.

“(Y/N), avoiding more people are we?” Robert questions with a smirk on his face, handing you one of his martinis. “I think I saw Ernest talking to a few people over there,” your eyes follow to where the physicist is pointing, easily spotting Ernest’s broad back facing you.

“Ah, thank you, Robert.” He nods his head with a smile before turning to another coworker, slipping into whatever conversation with ease as you walk towards your friend, your crush.

The sight in front of you causes you to halt in your movements. Facing him is a woman whom you’ve never seen, and she’s gorgeous. Painted red lips twist upwards in a smile that causes her eyes to twinkle. But what bothers you isn’t the beauty of the woman, it’s his hand gently resting on her bicep, words being softly spoken for only her to hear. Oh, so we don’t have anything. I was making everything up. He’s like that with every girl.

“Oh hey (Y/N)! I thought I saw you here. Want to join the conversation?” His voice snaps you out of your mental pity party. Downing the martini in one gulp, you offer a polite smile before turning on your heel and walking away, aware of the soft “excuse me” that he whispers to the woman, his footsteps chasing after you. “(Y/N), hold up.” It’s easy to find the door, and you’re thankful that Oppie keeps it open for anyone to come and go when they please, allowing you to slip out into the cool spring air. You need to get out of here and fast. “Hold up,” a hand gently grabs onto your wrist, pulling you into his body.

“What?”

“Why did you rush off? Are you feeling ok?”

Is he serious? “I’m fine. Sorry to disrupt your conversation. Didn’t want to intrude,” you forbid anger to rise to the surface, knowing that if it did, you’d just embarrass yourself. 

“I didn’t get to introduce you. That was Amy, my sister in law.” Wow, aren't I an idiot?

“Oh nice, sorry for running off. Needed some fresh air,” you attempt to chuckle, rubbing at the skin of your exposed arm, but he sees through it.

“Try again.”

Well, might as well. “Ernest, do you love me?”

“Ummm…” And here it comes. “Yes?” Wait. “No?” Well there goes your heart. “Maybe?”

Grabbing him by his biceps, you gently shake him. “Ernest. Pick one.”

He lets out a sigh, his head dropping as his eyes stare at his shoes for a second before looking back up to your waiting gaze. “Yes, yes I do.

“Oh thank God.” You push forward, standing on your tiptoes with your hands on his chest to stabilize yourself as you press a kiss to his lips. “I’m in love with you, Ernest.”

A goofy, dazed, smile plasters itself on his face as his hands fall to your hips. “It’s still early enough, wanna go get dinner?”

“Nothing sounds better.”

[fictional-love-is-my-life]

Say if the Autobots were looking for relics and one brought a motorcycle to life, but the bot calls a college student's garage home. The bot never revealed themselves to their rider, but they are very skittish towards other bots. Any HC on how Oppy, Bee, Ratchet, and 3 other bots of your choice would try to lure out the newborn bot.

Optimus:

He starts telling them about all his Autobots, hoping that if they knew about them they would want to meet the team.

He's patient and tells the bot to take their time, but that he thinks the best place for them would be with the Autobots.

He tells them all about Cybertron, thinking it might pique their curiosity and maybe they would leave the garage wanting to know more about Cybertronians.

Bumblebee:

He gets to know the new bot. He asks them to talk about themselves. He asks what they like most about the garage. He tells them what he enjoyed about staying in Sam's garage, but also stated he couldn't stay in it forever.

He promises to make them a room just like the garage and offers the bot to take any items they want to their new home.

He spends time getting to know them so they can trust him and eventually go with him.

Ratchet:

He does a little bit of both. He sits and patiently talks with the new bot. He asks them questions about themselves and whatever they say, he'll connect a bot to it saying 'I know another bot who likes that'. He hopes it will ease the bot into wanting to get to know the team.

He often brings them gifts, or items to show them. Usually, they are things that remind him of home or things that are useful to the Autobots.

'Why don't we take a quick visit to see the others, then I'll bring you right back' He starts taking them for small visits. Being patient, but gradually the visits got longer and longer until the bot finally decided to join the Autobots and permanently left the garage,

[transingthoseformers]

What would you like to see in Earthspark? Since there no confirmed plot I hope they direct the new focus to suspicion of Cybertron's condition and whether some of the Cybers would like to go back home even doe the war there may still be going on or the planet may be struggling

Also I I realised Shockwave wanted to pull of a TFP Megatron with the army from Cybertron dilemma but instead it was ethical in that he used the allspark and not space cocaine form satan

I would adore it if we got Jazz in Earthspark

Honestly I want to see more of Nightshade, hell maybe more characters who are nonbinary because I am a simple enby and it just. Matters so much to me that there are nonbinary characters in transformers and I'm really hoping that Nighty doesn't get pushed to the side somehow.

The Quintessonsssss. The connection with the Emberstone and Quintus Prime in specific makes me think we're gonna see them in the future

I'm hoping to see Megatron actively working on being better. Sure, he's reformed now. Sure. But if this show wants to be serious, he's going to have a lot of meaningful apologies and trying to honestly make amends and accepting the situations where he will not be forgiven.

I'd loveeee it if we get more information on Megatron's backstory, especially where it concerns how he met Dot and how he left the decepticons. There's a significant story there, and I feel like it includes the Battle of the Bay. That there is a significant event I hope isn't ignored, because not only was it the event that took Mandroid's arm and Dot's leg, but I'm just getting the feeling it's greatly important.

I'm hoping to see more of Tarantulas!! He's different than his IDW or BW appearances, and I feel like there are serious reasons why. I love his personality and his connection to Nightshade, and so much about him.

I neeeeed to know more about Earthspark Ratchet, and why he isn't here.

Is he in hiding? Is he dead? Did he half-defect and is patching up decepticons (my favorite answer, but the others are also interesting)? If he was stashed away in their base somewhere, they would've brought him in several times by now. Something's up with him.

Now that I realize it, Jazz might make a good additional mentor for Thrash. That'd be interesting.

I want to know more about what happened with Shockwave between the time where they hauled him into GHOST and when they met him for the second time under the mind control chip. Because I feel like shit went down.

More of the decepticons just... Existing outside of battle. Moments to show they aren't just The Bad Guys™️, but people being people, just like our main cast. We see a nice lot of this but I want to see more, and I feel like it'd be interesting if we saw the much more vulnerable emotions to them (such as more on Starscream's trauma, how Soundwave feels Megatron is a traitor, Shockwave not knowing what comes next for him)

The effects of the final battle. There are going to be so many consequences to that, and while I feel like there's gonna be a time skip in between seasons I trust at earthspark will want to discuss what happens next with GHOST without agent Croft or Mandroid, and the effects the trauma will have on the mecha (ESPECIALLY SO our main three in command, Megs Lita and Oppy. Especially especially especially Megatron)

(dear arc that's a lot hope I got everyone)

So you're throwin in the towel, are ya, doc? Fine by me! I'll take this joint myself!

VermilineCorp Prime Shareholder #5: Crooked Desert Sun: PENNEY

Mega Man just... looked at Penney, a bit surprised.

"You... know that it's like, 7 against one now, right? Put your gun down and surrender."

So you think

Penney hits a button on his wrist and the Wily bots in the factory start moving

! THE AT-WILL REMOTE OPERATION CLAUSE!

what's that?

As part of his deal with VermilineCorp, Wily modified his robots so the Corp could control them at any time. The argument that got me away from him was over that

There's gotta be something here…

DON'T YOU EVEN THINK ABOUT TRYING ANYTHING!

Without warning Quasar bolts for the gate and climbs up it. Penney wraps Quasar in his lasso and covers him in red fire, but the astronaut keeps climbing regardless

You're too late anyway. I've radioed the rest of the corp, and when they get here, this world'll belong to VermilineCorp. And then, Al, you best be ready for a one way trip down hostile takeover creek. And that goes for ol' Tom too!

Mega Man didn't respond verbally, he simply charged up his buster and fired. The First Law would normally protect against this, but with how much damage VermilineCorp could do, he was more than justified to attack at this moment. A Boomburst smacks into the top of Penney’s head. Guess Notos and Andes got their opening. Penney is flung but not far enough

Rock grab Wily and run! I have an idea! It'll get messy though

He nodded, grabbing the prostrate scientist and running off, though soon Proto Man would arrive for backup, rushing Wily through the gate. Despite Penney trying to shoot him Quasar is able to mess with the gate, and suddenly a massive feedback of energy resounds through the stronghold, and all the Wily bots and V-Corp personnel begin being sucked through it, back to their home dimensions. Penney tries to fight back but is being sucked in Enker looked to Quasar, surprised about the plan.

"Good move. I didn't expect that, personally."

We did it! Nice going Quasar! ^u^

Oppy and Top Man then feel themselves start to slide

Oh scrap

I just remembered

We're from those dimensions!

Nonononononononononono

Quasar grabs them with Convetezynce and fights with all his might to keep them from being sucked in. As if to spite Quasar's efforts, Penney shoots the controls to the gate as he's being sucked in, meaning shutting the gate down with the controls will be impossible. Andes PLUMMETS from the ceiling, talons outstretched. He latches onto Top Man’s back, trying to pin him to the ground. Notos leaps off his back, dashing towards Oppy and grabbing her arm. Top Man and Oppy inch closer, but a piece of plating flies off and the Wily Reactor is exposed. But to knock it out you'd have to be behind it, and the only way to do that would be to be either sucked through or sliced in half when the gate depowers.

Ballade knew what was happening, he felt himself sliding in as well. There was very little they could do to stop it. Well... The rest of them couldn't. He had one last trick up his sleeve. He rushed towards the portal, charging his buster. He's always had the ability, but it wasn't a good idea to use it for obvious reasons. Usually, at least. He aimed at the Reactor, letting loose with the strongest Ballade Cracker he'd ever shot. the Ballade Cracker blasts the Wily Reactor out of the gate and reduces the rest of the gate to scrap, slicing Ballade in two. His top half clatters to the ground, lifeless. Oppy and Top Man land, still safe in the Pokemon world.

Oppy! Top Man! I'm so sorry for what happened with that. I didn't think of that. You don't need to forgive me…. I don't know if I deserve it…

Quasar... I don't even blame you You did your best, and you weren't trying to hurt me, and it all (mostly) worked out, so why would I hate you for it?

If anything Penney's to blame for making it have to go that way

...thanks

he looks over and sees Ballade

Huh? Ballade? ...oh no. Nonono. Ballade!

“HOLY SHIT BALLADE”

what happened?!

Ballade's being stupid again. *sigh* Even without the slicing he would have gone critical from the charge. Probably fried at this point.

...I said no sacrifices... I promised everyone would be ok! I promised we'd all make it home!

Relax, he just needs rebuilt. As long as his IC chip is fine, he can come back from being disintegrated. That's how we work. That's how all Robot Masters work.

...

...Enker will handle it. For now the best we can do is give a salute, head home, and live our best lives, in spite of Wily and VermilineCorp

trying to move on from Ballade, he goes over to where the Wily Reactor landed

…I suppose one of us should make sure this doesn't fall into the wrong hands

Not so fast, Astronaut Lost. You may have forgotten, but I rendered assistance to the Variable Free, and I said it would come with a price

the Baron takes the Wily Reactor and stows it in their suit

And there we go! Thank you for your business once again!

Both Shallahi and Malkah noticeably grimace at the Baron.

“Want to chew them out again?” “…I don’t know.”

...Why don't we just head home

“Yeah. Let’s.”

ivy's relationship with her family

warning! death, abuse, neglect, addiction, cancer

 ˗ˏˋ nicknames. papa, daddy, oppi ; liv, vi, sweetie, darling 

 ˗ˏˋ contact name. oppi 💙 

     ……❪ growing up, markus was really his daughters first love. she grew up doing everything he did, from the moment he prayed, to the time she went to bed. he was everything she grew up knowing, until he wasn't. when olivia was just ten years old, her dad passed away from colon cancer. within the years of his cancer treatments, she grew to learn all about hospitals, sickness, and death. his death took an obvious turn on the whole family, and that night still haunts her to this day. ❫

     ……❪ the relationship she had with her dad was one for the history books. he would take him and his sister out all the time, and even when austin was a baby, he would make time for them everyday. he would do anything for his family, and there was quite a bit he did do. ivy likes telling the story of one time when austin was a baby, he carried him around the park, but miya and olivia would get jealous. and even though mommy said she would carry them, they wanted daddy. so miya would go on his back and ivy was in his other arm while austin giggled at his sisters. ❫

     ……❪ he was a goofy man, a goofy dad, it's where ivy gets her silly side from. every halloween he would dress as whatever the kids wanted, it was his way of teaching the kids to work together to make a decision, and a way to just make them laugh. one year he was a fairy, another year batman, and so on. he would teach the kids about his job as an architect, which isn't the most exciting job to kids, but he made it sound like a story. he was the most amazing dad in the world. ❫

     ……❪ ivy doesn't really talk to nicole, she really gets a call when her mom reaches a milestone in her sobriety journey before she goes back after a minor inconvenience. she says she would love to buy a house for her mom, but she doesn't know if she could trust her with that responsibility. however though, recently her mom reached her biggest milestone in sobriety yet, but none of the kids are getting their hopes up yet. ❫

Hey since you’re taking TFE requests, could I ask for some Bee x reader romantic headcanons? Human or cybertronian reader is fine, whichever you feel more inspired to write for ^^ thank you! ✨

A/n: Coming right up dear anon! I Decided to go with human, because why not :D

These are more like how the relationship started and small things like that, but I hope it's what you where looking for!

Definitely spoilers for episode 8 under the cut

Bumblebee Romantic S/O Headcanons

-Bee and you first met when he was speeding down the road one day

-Bee was in too much a hurry and almost missed you crossing the road infront of him

-He had to slam on his breaks and jump over you in his root mode to avoid crushing your body like a water bottle

-He had revealed himself to you and so of course he had to get you to calm down after your mini panic attack over the situation

-Once he explained that no he's not a Decepticon you had finally calmed down

-It took some convincing but he eventually took you to Optimus, Bee informing him of the fact he'd revealed himself to you

-Oppy wasn't upset, though very disappointed in Bee for speeding and almost hitting a pedestrian, resulting in this

-Though after time passed Bee and you grew close

-He'd bring you on late night drives if you couldn't sleep

-You'd offer to wash him every once in a while if he got dirty

-You two had started developing feelings for one another

-Bee confessed to you first, one night while you where out on a drive

-You had been too stunned to speak

-He took that as a rejection and drove you back home

-When he transformed in your drive way and leaned down to two you goodnight, you snuck in a small peck to his cheek

-Telling him that you reciprocate his feelings on the matter

-He would call you pet names like babe, or love

-He doesn't do any thing drastic when it comes to nicknames

-You however love to call him your personal "Love Bug" since his name is literally a bug

-He found it stupid in the beginning but it grew on him

-You still go on late night drives together, but this time they're more significant to you two

-When Dr. Meridian shows up as well as the Terrans, you two are called to "train" these Terrans

-You'd mainly deal with the kids while he delt with the Terrans

-In the episode Decoy, when you show up with Arcee and the kids to help them with the Soundwave situation he's especially worried about you

-He takes all the measures he can to make sure you and the kids don't get hurt

-At the end of the episode he's all over you, making sure you're alright, reassuring you he can talk with you if it's needed

-You assure him you're fine!

-There's nothing to worry about, but gosh this yellow bot can't stop the worry!

Barbenheimer weekend!

It’s Barbenheimer weekend and as a cinephile, I of course participated. Today was Barbie with my brother and yesterday I went to Oppenheimer. I bought shirts to wear to each one and went to my favorite theatre (I will never ever step into a chain theater with the exception of B&B bc it did start in MO where I am from)

This is a year for movies as a Wes Anderson movie and Chris Nolan movie came out this year. My two favorite directors. I know kinda contrasting. One makes serious, science-y movies and the other quirky indie films. I love them.

I got the guy’s name tattooed on my upper back, how super fan can one get? Next I just need a Chris Nolan tattoo and my super fan status will be extended 😂

I’ll start by talking about Barbie, now I’m not much of a fan of chick flicks, they’ve never really appealed to me but hey I’ve played with a Barbie or 10 in my childhood so this movie should be fun.

It was a fun movie. Margot Robbie was amazing as Barbie. The 2001 beginning scene was an awesome touch. I love that Will Farrell is the Mattel CEO. He is always so funny and dramatic with roles such as that.

I still liked Oppenheimer more.

I’m a HUGE fan of Cillian Murphy and have been waiting for Oppenheimer since I heard Cillian would be the star of the movie. Cillian is also in my top hot actors list, I’ve been in love with the guy since I saw 28 Days Later when I was 16.

I mean, have you seen the guy? He is up there with Sebastian Stan and Daniel Brühl in my opinion. 😍😍😍

Maybe I should make a post about my favorite hot actors?

Back to the subject at hand, Oppenheimer was a MASTERPIECE. Nolan never fails to disappoint. It is 3 hours long to do get a quiet fidget toy. I was pretty focused on the movie so it wasn’t too much of a problem. My favorite theater has a bar so I often saw people getting up for a 2nd and third drink based on the amount of cans I heard opening.

That’s what I hate about ASD you get in the focus of something and then you hear some measly background noise and the focus is gone.

Y’all Josh Peck makes an appearance.

I want to point out the scenes where Oppenheimer is overwhelmed/getting a sensory overload. I read another article that Nolan wanted to really capture what it’s really like to be in that situation. Like really really be in that situation. As someone that often (well not as often now that I left a stressful job) experiences being overwhelmed or a sensory overload Nolan was spot on. Especially with the amount of stress and trauma Oppie endured, the sounds and cinematography of it really had you feeling it. Heck for a minute I was feeling the feels of stress, anxiety and burnout I was feeling at my previous job.

I would definitely recommend doing some reading on the Manhattan Project before seeing. There is lots of awesome videos explaining the whole story. It will definitely give you a better understanding of the events unfolding.

Also, want to give a shout out to Gary Oldman (like he would see this post 😅) for playing president Truman the president from my home state and I even live half an hour away from his hometown 😂 and went to a school named after him. Oldman def got that Midwestern accent down 😂

I always forget that it was Truman that signed off on the big kaboom boom to go down. Makes me wanna say, way to go MO! We got buildings, streets, and schools named after this guy 😂 *I’m joking, the events of Hiroshima and Nagasaki were tragic*

I am definitely looking forward to seeing Oppenheimer again. I’ve yet to see it with my dad who is also a fan of Chris Nolan’s work. Heck the guy had not one but two professors that were involved in the Manhattan Project when he was at KU back in the early to mid eighties.

RIP my bank account buying all these movie tickets and snacks 😅

I hope you all can get a chance to participate in Barbenheimer fun this weekend.

Happy Friday!

Several dumb crossover fic ideas because I can

1) Steven Universe × Balders Gate 3

It's a Durge timeline just because I adore the ideas that could come from Stevens dream/aura powers interacting with this thing built to be evil but has lost its memory

Haven't played Durge timeliness yet so...

Post Steven Universe Future for that sweet sweet angst

Steven appears in Faerun somewhere between act 1 and act 2. The Nautiloid hopping around the place shunted through a Gem teleport column and Steven got yeeted around mid teleport

Withers is very unimpressed by this fucking rando appearing in the world and is NOT happy about it

Karlach and Stven fuse at somepoint to be Kalven

Steven does his little aura take over of a melon steven at somepoint trying to tell the Gems he's in galactic bum fuck nowhere and needs a lift back

At that time Durge is magically taken over by whatever force I've seen some spoilers for, and casts "Command" on Stevens unconscious bod.

The pair fuse and Durge becomes a Gem Dragonborn

Fighting ensues but Diamond Durge escapes

We go rattling off the plot rails and careen into Oh No territory

Alternatively at somepoint when Lae'zel is going to be rescued Steven goes Perfect Steven mode and wrecks the shit out of Orin

Doesn't save Lae'zel BUT brings her back

Withers is once agains very NOT HAPPY about this as the books are right out the window

Steven can now get home via Lae'zels hair

Lae'zel is VERY NOT HAPPY about this

In either case Homeworld pops by to say hello

Dnd Gods are VERY MUCH NOT HAPPY

The big brain is VERY MUCH NOT HAPPY

The Gith are VERY MUCH NOT HAPPY TO BE OUTDONE IN THEIR TRAVELLING ABILITIES

For a time is generally not a good vibe all around and Steven learns that sadly not every bad situation can be solved by sitting down for a chat/being sassy to a big bad

Resolution somehow???

Hints at Homeworld lending a hand to Faeruns technological advancement in the future

2) Pokemon x Pacific Drive

Haven't finished Pacific drive but hey ho

Set mid game-ish

Set pokemon journeys seasons, the one with Goh

Reports come to the season professor that weird sightings have been reported in Dynamax Dens, some have been becoming dangerous w/ random electrical strikes within/ground moving/a few reports of a car zooming through

Naturally general advice given to approach with caution as the professor send in children to investigate

Ash and Goh sort out a Den but as they finish the battle they can hear a car/see headlights coming towards them

Somehow they've teleported into the Exclusion Zone while the Den collapsed and at the same time the Driver opened up a Gate back to the garage

The pair get into the car and Driver hightail it to the Gate

Various plot things happen

Trainers turn out to be a LOT sturdier than the Driver and can stand the various crippling anomalies (being electrocuted/blown up/radiation poisoning in classic anime fashion amd because the pokemon world is FUCKING ROUGH)

Trainers notice the Driver just...doesn't eat or sleep, also notice they don't need to eat or sleep either now. They can still do those things but they just don't need to.

Turns out LIM energy is the same as Dynamax Energy

Oppy/Francis/Tobias giving info to the trio over the radio in the usual fashion. Frustrated there's no clear routes to the Garage or way for the Driver to communicate back to them but Rthey know the Trainers did pop through and are there

General plot is a mix of trying to get the Trainers home alongside the usual game plot

At somepoint Pikachu Dynamaxes and it goes WRONG. Still looks like Dynamaxed Pikachu but he goes mad with all the energy around.

Poor old Ash is grief stricken seeing his buddy in pain

Driver and Goh have to physically drag Ash into the Car so they can hightail it

Pikachu follows thinking Ash is being kidnapped + brain addled in pain. Can't Un dynamax

Plot follows trying to find a way to force Pikachu to un-dynamax

Pikachu is able to travel through the sames as he is infused with all this energy. Oppy can track movements but Routes the trio can take are too dangerous

Eventually Pikachu decides to go towards what is making him in more pain; towards Cappy

Trio find a route to Capoy too

Cool segway to getting the car off the ramp doing a flying spin into Dynamax Pikachu and knocking the poor thing out

Resolution getting Trainers home & driver out of the Exclusion zone

Whole story become driving force to NOT using the dynamax energy as the LIM tech is a warning to what could happen

[morning-might-arrive]

Here’s the continuation of my last post. Thank you so much to everyone who liked and reblogged! This is becoming a lot longer than I thought, so there will be another part soon. Feedback is appreciated!

A series of misunderstandings involving a limousine and Spectra’s blog lead Jackson to the realization that he has way more friends than he thought.

Wednesday

Jackson sighed as he silenced his blaring alarm clock. 7:00 am. As he walked to the bathroom to get ready, he was suddenly struck by a memory.

“It’s nothing personal, normie. You just look like such a freak.” Manny told him as he shoved him off of the lunch table. Jackson looked towards the other mansters, but they said nothing. So they all agreed. Even Clawd. 

He cringed. He’d had to eat lunch in a bathroom stall that day. He looked at his reflection, desperately wishing he could change it. He sighed and got dressed. He had to leave early since he now had no car and his parents weren't home. He plugged his headphones into his phone. Holt had gotten them into this situation, only fitting that he deal with it.

Holt Hyde cursed under his breath as he walked to school. Although the weather was warming, mornings in March were still frigid. He sighed in relief as he approached Monster High.

“Heya there, sweetpea,” Operetta drawled in greeting as Holt waltzed through the front doors of the school. 

“What’s good, Oppy?” Holt responded, his usual loud and energetic self even at the early hour.

“Just peachy keen like always, hun. Say, you seen the Ghostly Gossip lately?” She asked.

“Nah, we usually stay away from that garbage ever since that story about us and Frankie. Humiliated the poor ghoul and almost tanked our relationship. It really ain’t cool what they're doin’.” He replied nonchalantly. 

“Oh. Okay. Well sugar, you know you can tell me anythang you wanna, right?” She continued.

“Uh, yeah, sure. Thanks Oppy.” That was kinda weird for the rough and tumble ghoul to say, but honestly Holt was just glad their botched attempt at dating didn’t mess up their friendship. Oppy was a cool ghoul. 

“What’s the word, cool cats?” Came a new voice.

“Johnny!”

“Johnny.”

Johnny spirit sauntered casually down the main corridor of Monster High, and students jumped out of his way as if he had the plague. He put his arm around Operetta’s shoulder. “Hey, babe.”

Holt snorted. “I’ll never get why everyone lets you float around like you own the place.”

Johnny shrugged. “Guess they don’t have a choice. Besides, I never see you doing anything about it,” he replied with a bit of challenge in his tone. Holt rolled his eyes.

“You know you don’t scare us, Spirit. Anyway, it seems like Oppy’s got you on a leash without our help.”

Johnny bristled at that “Y’know Hyde, I’m gettin’ real sick of-”

“Why don’t we scamper on down to the catacombs and finish that new song we been workin on, sugarpie?” Operetta cut in. She really didn’t want to deal with a fistfight this early.

The couple walked away and Holt made toward the auditorium. He found the symphony on stage setting up and dashed up to join them, plugging his guitar into its amp. Jennifire was nearby greasing the corks on her clarinet. He huffed and sat down next to her.

“Another run in with the phantom pianist?” She asked, not even looking up.

“That guy is such a jerk!”

She chuckled and shook her head. “You boys are so easily provoked; I may never understand it. My brothers were just the same. He has done not to insight your anger.”

Holt really hated to admit it, but she was right. Johnny really didn't scare Holt, and he knew a little better than to try that tough guy act on Jackson. Plus, it was kinda funny seeing guys like Heath and Manny faint when he walked past them.

“Your emotions run like wildfire, I am very impressed you came to terms so easily with your end.” She continued.

Wait. What. “My what now?”

“Of course, it must be so hard for you to talk about. I am sorry.” A tear fell from her eye and promptly turned to smoke upon hitting her face.

“Jen, are you okay?” Holt asked, facing her.

She smiled. “Yes, I will be okay. So kind of you to think of me.”

“Okay, Okay, enough chit chat. Places people!” The director yelled as he approached the stage. Well. That was weird. Holt took his place in the stool beside the amp and looked up as the director began counting them off.

After an awkward hour of rehearsal, they were dismissed to second period. Holt emerged out into the crowd of students in the hall. Jennifire was nowhere to be found, so he made his way toward the art room. His Spotify playlist suddenly changed to a song by Pierce the Veil. He pulled out his phone to skip it and saw he had a message from Jackson. He scoffed. If D-low had told him what was wrong, would he be asking? JJ could be so oblivious. Maybe it was just a normie thing. 

He took his usual seat in front of his canvas and continued his painting for this week. 

“Psst, Holt.” he heard a whisper. He turned and met the shiny magenta eyes of retired popstar Catty Noir. “We’re turning up at Cleo’s place on Saturday, you in?”

“Yeah totally- oh, nevermind. We can’t make it, we kinda got a...thing that day.”

“Oh,” she said, looking kind of taken aback. “It’s that soon?” 

“What was that?”

“ I said I’ll see you soon!” she hastily corrected herself as she got up and turned in her painting, promptly leaving the art room. Man, everyone's acting off today. He touched up his work and quickly followed suit.

He basically had the rest of the period to himself, so he decided to riff on his guitar for a little bit. He couldn’t do it in the building anymore ever since that one time Headmistress Bloodgood caught him, so he moved to the front steps and set his bag beside him.

“Hey Holt!”

Holt turned towards the front of the school. “Frankie Fine-Stein! Where have you been hiding?” Her skin glowed a light mint green and her eyes sparked in the sun. Just as bootiful as ever. She sat on the step beside him.

“I was actually just in the library. I found this book about the original Jekyll and Hyde. It was way harsh; It said that Edward Hyde trampled a child in the streets of London, is that true?”

“Nuh-uh! Those stuffy normie’s didn’t like that grandpa’s were different so they dragged their reputation through the dirt!” Holt declared passionately. “Some of the people they charged him with killing didn’t even exist in the first place! Then they made Dr. Jekyll out to be a complete basket case and threw them both in jail! That is until they got bailed out by our great-great-grandma, Lucy.”

“Oh, man. I didn’t know any of that!” Frankie replied. She actually knew all about it, she had heard the exact same thing from Jackson before. They were both incredibly salty about the smear campaign launched against their great-great-grandparents that made their family flee to America in the first place, and you could hardly bring it up around them without a passionate rant. Frankie felt a little bad about bringing up something she knew was a sore subjet for them, but she had to make sure Spectra and the other ghouls didn’t get caught. It was for their own good, right?

Her phone buzzed in her lap and she glanced down. “Spectra got something, meet us back in the library.” Clawdeen. Frankie jumped up. “Sorry, Holt, I really gotta go.”

Holt watched her go in curiosity. He checked the time and quickly jumped up himself and dashed back inside the building. The only way to not be late now was to go through Section C, the so-called “vampires only” hallway. It really irked them when other monster’s used it, but he didn’t really care when it was either that or detention. As he made his way through he felt someone glaring at him, and met eyes with a large group of the former prep-school vampires. He braced himself, but instead of giving him grief like they usually did, they just let him pass. They were acting weird, but so was everyone else. Oh well, he didn’t really have time to think about it now.

Holt’s third period was Chemistry 2 with Mr. Hack. No thanks. Science was never his strong suit. Plus, there was seriously something off about this particular teacher. He just took a little too much pleasure in the cutting open of living things for Holt’s liking. He pulled out his phone.

“Keep an eye out. Today’s been weird, Bro.” He typed the message out and then disconnected his phone from his headphones. The world went dark.

Jackson blinked a few times. What was that ringing sound? “Oh, shOOT!” He bolted through the closest door- which just happened to be the right one- and took his seat as the bell finished ringing.

Mr. Hack passed out a hefty amount of worksheets to the class. “Okay class: no whispering, no talking, no looking around, no coughing or sneezing, no you can’t use the bathroom, and if I catch you on your cell phone the whole class gets detention. You have until the end of the class to complete the worksheets or it's a 0 for today.”

Everyone groaned. Good old Mr. Hack. Charming and likeable. Jackson tried to ignore the stares and whispers in his direction as he did his work. He knows he’s different, don’t they ever get tired of reminding him? Were they all paying more attention to him than usual, or was it just his imagination? He blazed through his work in about 20 minutes, it was just some simple thermodynamics equations. He looked up and noticed that Mr. Hack was asleep. Typical. Half the class were on their phones and the other half were talking amongst themselves. He pulled his phone out and saw Holt’s message.

Huh. Maybe it wasn’t just his imagination then, everyone was acting a little odd. Granted, every day at Monster High was pretty weird. Last week they had lost their school crest in a rollerblading contest and the school nearly toppled over, so maybe he could just ignore whatever this was.

The bell finally rang for lunch. He set his work on Mr. Hack’s desk as he jolted awake and practically ran from the room. He shot Clair a text

“Okay, transportation is set and decorations bought. Am I forgetting anything?”

“Measurements, goofy.” She responded almost instantly.

“Oh, right. I can get a tape measure from the woodshop teacher and get them during lunch.”

“Have you told the other monsters about Saturday?”

“No. I just don’t know how they’ll react, y’know?”

“Aren’t they always telling you about how you don’t belong? So why would they care?”

“Yeah you’re probably right. It’s just a difficult situation.”

“Yeah, I hear you. Let me know how it goes.”

Looking down at his phone, he didn’t notice Draculara until he bumped her as he passed.

“So sorry!” He exclaimed. 

“It’s alright.” She reassured him as she walked away. She made her way to the library where her friends were already gathered around in a circle. Spectra floated in the center.

“What’s this all about?” Draculara asked.

“While Frankie had Holt distracted, Spectra looked in his locker.”

“Well what did she find?” Cleo demanded.

“Just this. It appears to be a receipt for some kind of car rental.”

Clawd glanced at his phone. “Heath says Jackson is in the boys locker room right now taking measurements of himself and writing them down.” He told the group.

“Then what Spectra said is true.” Fraknie finally admitted. The room fell into extended silence.

“Well we can at least show Jackson he means something to us.” Draculara spoke up.

“Yeah,” Frankie agreed, “we can do something nice for him and Holt.”

“What are we going to do? Hijack the gym and throw a huge party during lunch?” Cleo asked sardonically.

“You’re on a roll Cleo! It’ll be closed tomorrow, but we can do it Friday!” Clawdeen agreed.

Cleo smiled. Very well then. Friday would be a day for the monster history books.

Unpopular Opinion: Optimus Prime isn't a very good person and that he's too glorified. (expect TFA Optimus)

strongly agree | agree | neutral | disagree | strongly disagree

What can I say except that there are many, many Optimus'/Convoy's out there and making a general opinion on them just doesn't work.

But I couldn't think of any Optimus I experienced who wasn't deep down a good person - lets make a roll call shall we? (includes all shows except RB and RBA + Bayverse)

G1 Optimus Prime - Good person, good leader, good father figure. Is forgiving towards wrong-doers without being a pushover. Couldn't think of anything he does that is sketchy

Beast Wars Optimus Primal - He has a harsh personality, hits Rattrap on the back of his head when the Rat talks bullshit and can get feral against his own teammates when they are being assholes like Depth Charge - but all in all, he is still a good leader and a good person. He simply has a more down-to-earth personality and a no-bullshit attitude.

He only ever reacts angrily because his team do stupid and jerkass stuff, but he is never unreasonable.

When he gets angry, you know why and you get why.

Also, he gave Dinobot a chance as a Maximal two times, so he too has a forgiving nature. And his dynamic with Depth Charge shows that he isn't petty either. ("I don't like him much either, but he's still a Maximal.")

He also had a nice moment with Blackarachnia in which he assures her they won't do anything about her coding against her will and that she is safe with them.

Beast Wars II Lio Convoy - The only thing you could call him out for is for refusing the father role when he found out he has a son. It took him half the show to actually call Lio Junior his son, but it made for a nice story! Also, he was willing to make peace with Galvatron in the show, showing his forgiving nature.

Beast Wars Neo Big Convoy - The shy and awkward one! He's a treat who learns to become a good teacher and leader with the help of his students, and he had this moment in which he tried to save Magmatron's life from Unicron. He is a hero with a strong sense of justice who needed to learn about proper teamwork and friendship and it's a really simple and sweet story.

Beast Machines Optimus Primal - This dude is such a trainwreck and I cannot in good conscious say he was always on the right side of things, I admit that.

The way the show treated the Vehicons was a little sketchy, because the Maximals technically became hypocrits, especially when it was about Silverbolt.

Forcing the "techno-organic is the real way to be" unto the non-organic characters feels a little weird, because the show never properly showed us why being without an organic side is supposed to be so bad. (And this matters because the good vs evil conflict isn't properly connected to the techno vs organic plot).

So this Oppy you can make the point that he isn't all that good as he pretends to be in his preachy cult leader role.

RiD01 Optimus Prime/Fire Convoy - Listen, this is the most naive and cute Optimus out there. This dude was willing to let Decepticons into their base just because they were like "We are good now :)" without even checking first.

His dynamic with his jerkass twin Magnus supports that - he doesn't want to fight his brother! The dude fucking pushes him off a cliff and he still tries to reason with him and doesn't fight back at all!

Don't you ever dare call this Prime a bad person, he's precious! xD

Armada Optimus Prime/Convoy - This is the dude who goes fucking feral at the end and shows just how much hatred and anger a Prime can store - but really just towards the end! The rest of the show he's your typical leader who doesn't do anything bad.

And when he made mistakes, he corrected them.

The fact that he always had this hatred and rage that he pushed aside all the time is the most interesting thing about this Prime, but even that doesn't make him a secretely bad person, because he still doesn't do anything bad. He's just an angry boi.

Energon Optimus Prime/Grand Convoy - This is technically the same Prime as Armada, and for once that shows - that anger Prime showed at the end of Armada is still present here and shows up a few times, especially when it's about Unicron.

But just like in Armada, he doesn't do anything bad.

He even tries to save Shockblast, the jerkiest jerk of the entire show, from Unicron's influence! And did just that with Galvatron at the end as well with the full intend to sacrifise himself to save everyone, including the Cons.

Cybertron Optimus Prime/Galaxy Convoy - My favourite Prime of them all - this Prime is just a damn Papa Bear! He will be considerate and loving towards his men, but if you bully his kids, you'll catch his hands bro.

He's bit a stoic dude, but shows compassion and kindness when he needs to.

He doesn't do anything sketchy either, and lets the few remaining Cons be part of the Transformers society in the end, despite their misdeeds before.

TFA Optimus Prime - The one you say is the only good Prime? Guess so, he's a good person as well! He makes mistakes (like insulting his team) but learns and grows from them.

But mate - he isn't a better person than any of the other Prime's I just listed. The only difference between TFA Prime and the other Primes so far is that TFA Prime is a narrative underdog who you are supposed to feel pity for.

All the other Prime's are leaders in a leader role, so just from a narrative standpoint, you don't feel the same sympathy for them as you do for TFA Prime.

But being an underdog doesn't translate to being a better person. The Joker in the Joker movie is also an underdog, but no one says he's a good person and that everything he does in this movie is justified.

TFA Prime just goes through more harsh shit that isn't Megatron and that's it. He isn't being a better hero or person for that.

TFP Optimus Prime - Yeah, I saw the opinion that him being too forgiving towards Megatron in the past is a flaw and that he cares more about this one silver shark more than about the safety of the universe - to which I say: WHEN???

This is a thing Ratchet accuses him off! But I couldn't remember a single scene in this show in which Optimus does, in fact, let Megatron go when he had the chance to kill him!

They always fought to the death when they did and Megatron surviving wasn't because Optimus was too nice. He's not Son Goku peeps.

And I have my issues with TFP Prime and how his characters is written, but being a secretely bad person aint it. He isn't a bad person.

If this is also about Starscream - he has every right to not trust Starscream. No one should trust Starscream! Starscream doesn't exist to be trusted by anyone.

You cannot call Prime a bad person because he elects to not trust the notorious backstabber, who, as Prime himself as pointed out, only does things for his own gain.

Also, he did try to make peace with Starscream after Megatron's "Death", and Starscream refused.

Is it about him destroying the Omega Lock? Nothing wrong with that! He chose to save Earth and all its Humanity over restoring a dead planet! Dead planet stays dead, alive planet stays alive. No one died by his decision to destroy the Omega Lock - but a whole ass planet would have died if he hadn't.

Like bro - I am not a big sucker for TFP Prime, but all these points I see floating around to prove that he is actually a bad person are kinda weird and biased.

Why should he have given Starscream a chance? To get backstabbed and used??? Which we know would have happened because this is fucking Starscream we are talking about??? A dude who doesn't care about Earth in the slightest and was happy about it being destroyed? Who only cares about power and winning this war, which is why he goes back to Megatron???

Should have sacrifised Earth? Would that have made him a true hero???

RiD15 Optimus Prime - This TFP Prime, just sterner, weaker and ready to start beef. But ultimately still a good guy.

Bayverse Optimus Prime - Here you got a Prime who kills his enemies! For anyone saying that TFP Prime is bad for not killing Megatron when he could, do you at least like Bayverse Prime for doing just that? Three times???

Even though he kills all his enemies, I never saw that as him being evil. He just doesn't give second chances. And it was refreshing to see a hero who actually does get rid of his enemies before they can do more shit.

He aint the nicest bot in town, but in the end he still did the heroic thing.

Movie 4 even gave him an arc about losing his faith in humanity and not wanting to help them anymore, but in the end he still does because his Barn Husband Cade convinces him to.

Good man I say, good man!

Prime Wars Optimus Prime - He tried to stop Windblade from making a mistake that would end in war with an emphasis on Windblade herself - saying that war is horrible and he doesn't want her to go through the same thing.

He then decides to help her anyway when he learns what the stakes are, is giving Megatron a second chance, keeps being on friendly footing with the dude and dies in an attempt to destroy the bad guy.

All in all, a good boy!

Cyberverse Optimus Prime - He forbids his soldiers from taking Energon from a foreign planet because the local fauna need it to survive - he constantly tries to do peace talks and doesn't give up on them - He dances in front of his crew to cheer them up - he shows remorse about what happened to Wild Wheel and tries to make things right again - he holds the dead Megatron in his arms and calls him his old friend-

Nothing bad about this home boy!

War for Cybertron Optimus Prime - he fucks up the whole damn time, but he has good intentions! He's a flawed individual who realises what his mistakes are!

Making mistakes, even as grand as his, doesn't make him a bad person!

So, no - I don't agree that Optimus is bad person and I also don't agree that TFA Prime is a better person than any other Prime.

Almost all these Prime's do good things, protect life, try to choose peace over conflict at least once and have a forgiving nature (even Bayverse Optimus, as he forgives humanity) - that all good guy qualities for me!

What more do you want from him to be a good person? Be nice to Starscream off all people???

Also, what do you even consider to be "too glorified"??? The newest media like WFC doesn't even depict him as a good leader because he fucks up so bad.

Somebody Else's Wedding

A little something that I wrote for @forgottenpeakywriter based on some prompts she sent me, I hope this makes you happy lovely. x

As for the smut I was trying to write, its coming slowly, sorry to the requester, but I am shit!!!

You had first encountered Robert in a meeting held by a mutual friend, focused on supporting local workers through the economic depression that the whole world was facing at the minute. Someone had introduced you and before you knew it you and you had immediately hit it off. You met up for subsequent meetings and then he started to take you out for dinner. It was fair that after the third of these occasions you had totally and irretrievably fallen for him. He led you along for a while, like a dog chasing a scent, until one day he kissed you as he walked you to the door of the house you were staying in. You were pretty sure that this was his way of cementing the deal, thought apparently not, or you wouldn’t be stood here. Your happy fantasy world had been broken apart weeks later when your parents, worried about the family reputation, had threatened to cut you off if you didn’t end all of your ties to left wing politics. This included Robert.

Today was your wedding day, and to your disappointment it wasn’t Robert who was stood at your side. Instead you were going to be married to a chemistry graduate who had just got a stable job working for Shell. He was a good match and a good friend, but he wasn’t Oppie. You felt like you were at somebody else’s wedding, not your own. Things were even worse in the fact that your fiancé had insisted that Oppie be invited along to the proceedings, having been his lecturer at Berkeley for a while. He had been sat at the back of the room, but you could still sense his presence in the air. As the service began it clearly became all too much for him, the small scuffle in the back pews alerting you to him leaving to avoid the painful situation, not that you could go anywhere.

The vows were progressing and you were getting towards the point of having to say your “I dos”, you had an impending sense of doom but there was hardly anything that you could do about it now, stood up at the altar. The reverend said the inaugural “If anyone here knows of any just cause or impediment as for why this couple should not be bound in matrimony, speak now or forever hold your peace.” The room was quiet, but of course nobody was expecting anyone to actually speak. That was until one member of the congregation raised their hand - your friend and bridesmaid Sarah. The vicar seemed genuinely taken aback, before addressing her.

“Miss, you have a reason that this marriage should not go ahead? Please consider the gravity of what you are about to do before you share it.” Sarah was hesitant, but continued anyway.

“I suspect that… the bride may love somebody else.”

~

Robert was sitting in a pub not far from the church, drowning his sorrows with a glass of whiskey. His tie was loose, the top button of his shirt undone and moving between leaning back into the wall of the booth, trying to make himself invisible, and resting his head in his hands. He didn’t even look up at the flurry of activity when one of his students, Lomanitz who had also been invited to the wedding, came hurtling through the door looking for him. 

“Oppie, I have news.”

“What, have the happy couple tied the knot yet? How wonderful.” He didn’t even look up from the table, playing with an unlit cigarette, balancing it on his finger to find the centre of gravity.

“Actually, they haven’t tied anything.” He looked up then.

“What do you mean?”

“Sarah stood up and told the congregation that y/n was in love with you and the groom was so angry that he called the entire thing off.”

“You have to be joking me… where is she now?”

“Y/n?” Oppie nodded. “She’s gone home with the Chevaliers, nobody else would speak to her.” Robert stood, downing the rest of his drink, before making his way to the door.

“Thankyou Lomanitz, and remember to get your thesis to me by Monday.” 

~

In the meantime you were sat in the front room of the Chevalier residence. They were friends of Robert’s who knew you well and were the only people who were willing to help you after the revelation of the earlier ceremony. It was pouring with rain outside, the raindrops bouncing off the ground and the sky even blacker than your mood. You were pulled out of your thoughts by a knock on the door, well three rather desperate sounding knocks to be honest. A male voice shouted through, telling you that he would sort it, so you went back to staring at the wall and nursing a glass of something rather potent you had found at the back of the kitchen cupboard.

‘Y/n, there’s someone here to see you.” You huffed as you got up, expecting it to be your parents or someone similar, making no hurry to get there. What met your eyes was somebody very different.

Robert was standing in the rain, soaked to the maximum with water dripping from the brim of his hat, now slightly bent from the moisture. 

“Should I come out or should you come in?”

“As much as I hate to say it we need some privacy, I hope you don’t mind the rain?” There was a strange look on his face that you just couldn’t read. You stepped out into the downpour, anticipation building in the pit of your stomach.

“Look, I’m sorry for walking out of the wedding today,” he started. “Lomanitz told me what happened though, is it true that you love me, because you see, I am so very in love with you.” The whole world stopped when he said that.

“Robert I… yes, I do love you.” The look of apprehension that had previously been rooted on his features quickly left, being replaced by a wide smile.

“I must be in heaven, there is no chance that somebody as beautiful as you could exist in this world. You’re the form of beauty, you know that.” You smirked at that, he always was smooth with his words.

“Oppie, I’m a bedraggled mess in the middle of a rainstorm., wearing a wedding dress from another man’s wedding.”

“It doesn’t matter, you are breathtaking.” He pauses. “In fact, I’m hoping that I might be buying you one of those soon.”

“You mean…”

“Yes, will you marry me?” I reach up for his face, reaching my arms around the back of his neck and pulling him into a deep and romantic kiss. Its a few moments until we break apart.

“I’ll take it that’s a yes!”

1/4 the thing about Donna is that it was after Claudia died that she was probably vulnerable enough to fall for the 'I adopt you as my child so now you have a family and i'll give you a 'gift'' shtick of Miranda's. Claudia died in 1996 aged 9 and was either her sister or her child. The Gardener says 'Mistress Donna' and 'Miss Claudia' so she was already head/last heir of the Beneviento estate.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure that Claudia's death must have been the final hit for Donna. Losing her parents was one thing, but it's something all of us will have to deal with in our lives at some point (hopefully a late one). Losing a younger sibling/child when they're 9 is undoubtedly tragic. Considering Claudia's age I immediately assumed she was Donna's younger sister; I saw Donna as quite young herself, unless she was super young when she had Claudia, if Claudia is her child. But in any case, her death must have caused her even more distress, so it was the perfect situation for Miranda to swoop in and claim herself as Donna's "mother". Especially considering that Miranda's "gift" allowed Donna to create the perfect friend; Angie, the doll that was gifted to her by her father, and whose personality she could shape exactly the way she wanted.

2/4 as for nonaging+alcina, i raise you: her daughters. 3 young women were experimented on w cadou and as a result they were 3 amnesiac carnivorous swarms of flies that went back to looking pre-experiment. Then got adopted. And stayed looking like that for years up to the game's events. As for Heisenberg, he says 'decades of being forced to serve her' so shouldn't he have said 'my whole life' (he's dramatic/showman enough that he would have) or reference to lifelong slavery or 'MM raised us'?

Good point about the daughters! I hadn't even thought of them! But yeah iirc one of the diary notes you find in the game is dated at around 1958 or something, and it mentions Daniela, so all three of them were definitely there at least since then, non-aging and all. And I think though Alcina ended up adopting them, Miranda also oversaw the experimentation on them, so it's a good point towards proving that symbiosis with the Cadou pauses one's aging completely.

And yeah, Heisenberg would definitely be as dramatic as to say something like that, especially considering how oversharing he was about everything. It was like he was seeing Ethan run around his factory, being the only intelligent creature around that wasn't on Miranda's side, and he just unloaded all his burden because Ethan was the very first to be able to comprehend it and not rat him out to Miranda (who, ironically enough, already knew all about Heisenberg's wish to rebel against her). And Ethan was just like "Dude I honestly don't give a shit" XD

But yeah the way he says "She took me. Took us. To be her children." He sounds disgusted and like, he's rightfully so but the kind of disgust fits a bit more the idea of Miranda kidnapping a grown-ass man, experimenting on him with the hope of reviving her daughter through him, and when that failed she just claimed him as her "son". It sounds more like that and less like a rebellious son who, after growing up, realized what a fucked-up caretaker he had as a child.

3/4 MM had established herself/met Spencer/forbade people from going+getting anything from outside the village by the late 50s/early 60's that's why there are trucks and tvs and radios; and the Duke being the one to sell newspapers to villagers + being Karl's informant about bsaa+the stuff that happened in america (this is from the game director Sato who said heisenberg isn't a nazi and the fanservice of 'boulder punching asshole' here polygon . c o m / interviews / 22453564)

4/4 and now that i think more on it, MM just grabbed the last descendants of the most historically powerful houses, literally the founding ones (except alcina) to have even more influence within the village huh. timeline is wonky for sure. but then again all re canon is a bit wonky. Tumblr pls don't eat this one.

I honestly fucking love the design in the village because it's so well made to showcase that Miranda had cut off any connection from outside and inside the village. People on the outside didn't know it existed (aside from whoever it was in BSAA who made sure the mold man and his mold daughter would be relocated in driving distance to it and its leader with an obsession over a certain megamycete), and people on the inside were stuck with technology of mid-20th century and zero contact with the outside world. Even the Duke seems to adapt to it style-wise even though he obviously can contact the outside world.

And yeah, from the very little we see of the villagers, they seem to have felt very obedient to the Lords and Miranda, even though people like Elena were terrified of Castle Dimitrescu (with good reason!). And that probably was because Miranda made sure to have control over the right influences in the village.

Also, I love the phrase "the fanservice of "boulder-punching asshole'". Out of context it just sounds even more hilarious.

Thank goodness that I've taken to saving every ask in a txt bc my memory is bad. Next time I'll send shorter stuff like the friendly reminder+oppy+ethan and the hammer thing tho. You shouldn't have given me permission to ramble, now your inbox is mine, nyehehehe /joking

Honestly, I love getting your messages! I have a quick scroll through my activity every morning before work and I smiled every time I saw the notifications of your messages! Feel free to make yourself at home in my inbox :D

OC Companion Meme

i got tagged by @ultrastimpaks​ !! thanks gio love u 

rules: pick out a fallout oc and fill out the prompts!

tagging uh. @sleights-of-hand​ @rocket-69​ and @rotarydials​​ !!

THE BASICS

>> which game would they be from?

Fallout 3

>> where would you find them?

A random encounter in the subways!

>> how do you recruit them?

"Just put it down! I didn't do anything to you!" Oppy shouts at the pair while holding her hands in the air.

"Aw, you really think I care, don't you?" The raider throws Oppy's backpack to another, who begins to dig through its contents.

"Never said that. Just give it back and I'll be on my--"

(I wrote it out as a dialogue tree scenario! Read the rest here!)

After rescuing Oppy from the raiders, you have the option to recruit her as a traveling companion.

>> do they have a specialized task?

If you give her dirty water, she’ll eventually hand back purified water!

(First time picking up dirty water with Oppy traveling with you) “Oooh! My mom taught me how to boil all the dirt and stuff out of water ages ago. I can clean those up for you if you want! Much healthier too, don’t want you getting sick on me!”

(Giving her dirty water) “Oh yuck! Will get this back to you as soon as I can!”

(Handing back purified water) “Bye dirt! You belong with the plants, not in my drinking water, thank you very much!”

>> do they give the player items? if yes, which items?

Oppy will occasionally pick up miscellaneous items on your journey with her. Sometimes they’ll even be useful! She will occasionally share them with the player. The things she picks up can range from an old pre-war phone to a stray stimpak she nabbed.

>> do they have a personal quest? if yes, what would it be?

Oppy doesn’t have a personal quest, but she’ll occasionally bring up smaller quests to go to different places around the DC area for research purposes. The player will likely need to take down low-level enemies from these locations before Oppy is able to complete her research.

If enough quests are completed, the player is granted the ‘In the Know!’ perk. This will grant special dialogue options while Oppy is by your side. 

(For example, during the Stealing Independence quest if you have Oppy by your side you can ask Abraham to tell you more about the location you’re going to.)

>> can you romance them?

No.

(If flirted with) “Oh! Well, I’m flattered, but I’m not really looking for romance right now. I’d rather just go on more adventures with you! Where to next?”

>> what perk would they give the player?

Walking on Sunshine: Well-rested will always be granted after sleeping in a bed - being around Opportunity just seems to put you in a good mood! You also receive bonus EXP for any non-combat related actions.

>> what are their SPECIAL stats?

S - 6, P - 4, E - 6, C - 9, I - 8, A - 7, L - 7

AFFINITY

- Helping others, doing good deeds. “Good work! Some people are just down on their luck.”

- Taking down Paradise Falls. “No one deserves to be treated like that. No one.”

- Choosing the non-violent option in quests. “You handled that well! Sometimes words work better than bullets.”

>> likes

- Helping Moira with the Wasteland Survival Guide. “I know it’s tough, but it’s going to help a lot of people! No, really! ...What do you mean I sound just like her, shut up!”

- Siding with Roy Phillips and doing the non-violent route of the Tenpenny Tower quest. “You did the right thing, that Alistair guy is an asshole. ...Excuse my language.”

>> neutral

- Entering vaults. “The so-called height of the pre-war era... Did you know they were experimenting on people even before the bombs dropped? Cruel. We should get out of here as soon as we can.”

>> dislikes

- Drinking alcohol or using chems. “Hey! Being intoxicated isn’t going to help us get anywhere!”

- Pickpocketing/Stealing. “What are you doing?! Put that back!”

- Attempting to unlock owned doors or objects. “Stop it! How would you like it if I blatantly ignored your privacy? Those are locked for a reason!”

- Killing brahmin. “If you wanted to be a butcher you could have just said so, but this isn’t the time or place. What did they do to you?”

>> hates

- Leaving Harold alive during the Oasis quest. “I want plants back just as much as anyone else, but this isn’t the way to do it. He’s suffering at the hands of these people... Maybe you should have rethought that.” (Oppy will pull you aside to try talking you out of it multiple times during the quest.)

- Blowing up Megaton. “Why... would you.... I don’t understand your- What? You know what? No. I can’t stand to look at your face. Don’t try explaining yourself, I’m leaving. Don’t come running after me, either.” (Oppy will permanently leave you if you blow up Megaton. She will pull you aside to try talking you out of it multiple times throughout the quest.)

- Siding with the Brotherhood. “I’m afraid I don’t get why you would do that... They’re only out to help themselves. Have you seen the way they treat anyone different from their own?”

VOICE LINES

>> “use melee”

"Oh! Okay, I got my bat ready! I’ll try my best!”

>> “use ranged”

"I’m not sure that’s the best decision, I always seem to lose my ammo...”

>> “stay close”

“Right behind you! I’ll try not to trip you up.”

>> “keep distance”

“Got it! They’ll never see us- Er... Me, coming!” 

>> “back up”

“Oh sorry, was I too close?”

>> “be passive”

“Great! That’s my specialty.”

>> “be aggressive”

“Why would you want me to do that?”

>> “wait here”

“No problem! Do you want me to set up a camp while I wait?”

>> “follow me”

“Off we go!”

>> when healed

“Ow ow ow- Oh, thanks! You sure we don’t have to amputate?”

>> when killed (general)

“This wasn’t... how I planned this going...”

>> when killed (by player)

“I trusted you!”

>> when talking

“Back home my granmama would always make these tato cakes- they were the BEST. You’d love ‘em. Maybe I could make them for you sometime!”

“There’s a lot more to learn about our history than you’d think. Doesn’t do any good to just ignore it when it’s all repeating itself again.”

“One time my cousins and I were out playing in a nearby creek when we were young and Matty got his leg stuck in the mud.. We were out there for HOURS until my dad and my uncle came out to rescue us. Hey, at least we got snacks afterward!”

“Don’t you find feral ghouls fascinating? I mean, basically losing your mind and who you are as a person.. Only hanging onto what little threads of memory you can hang onto. Must be hard.”

“I think the Capitol Preseveration Society is doing good work, even if most people don’t appreciate it. History has to be remembered somehow!”

“Back home we didn’t have a lot of plants, but we at least had more than there are here.. Sometimes I get tired of all the concrete and rubble.”

“You know... As much as I enjoy looking back at history and all, I don’t want you to think I want to go back to it. Pre-war wasn’t good, I mean, hell, it ended up with a nuclear war that brought us to where we are now.”

“I’ve always thought people should make more of their own music. My family was always singing and drumming against things... I rarely see any of that around here. It’s kinda gloomy, really!”

“I’m not a fan of that Brotherhood of Steel group... They say they’re preserving old technology, but they’re not really helping anybody or teaching anyone outside of their crew, are they?”

>> when trading (neutral)

“Shoot... Which pocket did I put this in again?”

“Hold on, I think I lost... Nope, there it is.”

>> when trading (happy)

“Oh good! Do you have snacks?”

“I assure you I’ll handle your things with the UTMOST care and attention. I even have a dust rag around here somewhere!”

>> when dismissed

“Oh, okay... I’ll be in Rivet City if you need me!”
