Drawing the messiest sketches is actually so good for my brain

[thaylepo]

omg omg, ok, a few things will need to be switched around vis a vis who has what personal relationships and who fills what role in the star wars narrative versus the animorphs narrative, BUT

Ok so the dual sides of the main conflict are easy. You have a powerful ruling body (the Senate) overthrown from within by a new faction (the Empire). The two powerful forces backing each side are directly mirrored as light and dark: the Jedi and the Sith. The same elements are all present in the initial setting of Animorphs: you have the good-guy Andalite forces and the bad-guy Yeerk Empire. It gets more complex later on, but this is how the series presented the setting for its main conflict.

Slide this into the SW universe: a Galactic Senate, backed by the considerable political power of the Andalites, is overthrown from within by a rogue faction backed by the newly emerged Yeerk Empire. The Sith and the Yeerks combine as a dual power -- not all controllers are Sith, but all Sith are controllers. Something something infestation combining a force-capable yeerk and a force capable host equals one super powerful entity. The Andalites are not a perfect stand-in for the Jedi, they fit more into the Ep. IV role of Alderaan and the Rebel forces, but it's not a huge jump to say this race of psychic deertaurs was possibly super over-represented among the ranks of a multi-race force of mystic space warriors. For a nearly wiped out semi-legendary race of incredibly force-sensitive beings who may have begun the Jedi order? We have the Pemalites. Crayak and the Ellimist could also fit into this theme of diametrically opposed forces of good/evil, light/dark, creation/destruction, etc. Perhaps as literal personifications of the Force itself? It's nearly impossible in this mashup to keep everything consistent from one universe versus the other, so we're throwing all the spaghetti at all the walls and seeing what sticks XD

How does the morphing power fit? Well, it easily can remain as: technology developed by the Rebellion (Andalites) to turn the tide of war, but how does turning into animals help in a setting where most of the major conflicts are fought in space, or with weapons and armies of ground troops? How does morphing translate into the SW setting as an allegory for the Force? I do not know. It could be that the Force, in this mixed universe, is more technologically based than spiritual: you need to be given it like the morphing power, but perhaps only "force sensitive" people can actually receive it.

Ep. IV: A New Hope follows the structure of the hero's journey, and roughly so does the first book of Animorphs, so that's a good place to start. As for the characters, that's the easy part..........

Tobias grows up in the boonies on Tatooine with his aunt and uncle. He's never known his father, but after finding an injured Andalite and a dog-shaped robot carrying a message from a beautiful golden haired princess, his friend the strange old blind woman who lives in the desert reveals that Tobias' father had been a Jedi who was murdered by the terrifying Yeerk warlord, Visser Three. Before he died though, Elfangor left a gift for his son that will change the course of his entire life........

Rachel was raised by the ruling family of Alderaan from a baby as a favour to her mother, a former Senator turned legal arbitrator. Her incredible intelligence, fighting prowess, political education, and ferocity in debate has made her a force to be reckoned with in the scene of galactic politics. She takes a leading role in the Rebellion at an astonishingly young age and she shows no sign of faltering. She certainly has no idea that a couple of her biological cousins are involved in the shady galactic underworld smuggling rings, and nor would she care; she needs to smuggle crucial information herself to the Rebel Forces herself, ironically. When her diplomatic ship is intercepted by Visser Three himself, Rachel doesn't miss a beat. There's only one person who can help her now.....

Jake may be a serious guy, unlike his best friend and huge hairy behemoth Marco, but he trying to do his best with what he's got. And what he's got is a fast ship, a quick mind, and an eye for getting out of trouble. He'll never be a leader like his older brother Tom, who governs his own city now, but he's content with his two-man operation and the life of a simple smuggler. This latest job they've taken, though, is a little out of the ordinary: ferry the entourage of an old blind lady and a wide-eyed country bumkin into the heart of Empire space. It wasn't even a very good offer, even with that pretty mechanic they hired, but for some reason he just hadn't been able to say no.......

Marco is not in the crime business for the money: he's in it for Jake. They've been best friends for almost their whole lives, ever since the human child stumbled upon a captive young Wookie and broke him out. He knows he'll outlive his friend by a couple centuries, but after he was captured and his mother killed, Jake has practically been his only family. They make a great team: Marco's wit and devastating good looks, along with Jake's stellar piloting skill. Marco wishes Jake were better at the people side of the business, though. He doesn't take to their new passengers, and while it's funny watching Jake try flirt with the first cute girl he's ever seemed tongue-tied by, Marco suspects the old woman and the sharp-faced, squinting desert boy are going to be way more trouble than they're worth......

Cassie is a natural with droids. Actually, if it runs, swims, crawls, flies, drives, hovers, or burrows underground, she has an uncanny knack for it. Creature or machine, she'll tend to whatever you bring her and give it back to you better than it's ever been. She's known Tobias for years but rarely sees him more than once every few months, so it's a surprise when he and the reclusive desert hermit known as Old Lo show up out of the blue with an injured Andalite and a dog-shaped robot she's never before seen the like of. Even more troubling, once the corrupted message is extracted from the robot ER-1K, Tobias and Lo intend to leave Tattooine and Cassie has a terrible bone-deep feeling they won't be coming back. It's the sight of the ship they hire that's the final straw: someone is going to have to come along and keep that smuggler's death trap in the sky.......

Aximili has lived his whole life in the shadow of a brother whom people rarely speak more than whispers about anymore. Elfangor had been one of the most powerful Jedi ever to exist, a hero of the Clone Wars, a larger-than-life figure impossible to live up to. But now the Jedi are eradicated, the Empire is in control of the galaxy, and Elfangor's name spoken only in hushed, reverent tones. Though Aximili had hardly known his brother, still young when he'd been killed, he doggedly tried to live up to his memory. His hard work and dedication had earned him a highly honoured place: the right hand assistant to the formidable Princess of Alderaan herself. But now, Princess Rachel is in the clutches of Visser Three himself, the Rebellion was losing ground, and Aximili can only think on his own monumental failures while he's crammed aboard a rusted spacecraft with a blind former Jedi, a backwater doctor-mechanic, two highly dubious criminal lowlifes, and Elfangor's own long lost son. This rescue mission already feels doomed, but it's the only hope they've got......

Long ago, in a galaxy far far away, six kids are the only thing standing in the way of an empire.......

Au idea: animorphs but star wars

I know other folks will have better ideas than I do. Any Animorphs and Star Wars fans out there willing to weigh in with thoughts?

[lincolndjarin]

i didnt realize we hit 1500 until just now :,)

thank you all so much, ily ily ily, i love sharing my writing with you all and im so excited for whats to come. i dont have anything special planned as a milestone celebration so instead of that i will post a section of the din series ive been planning lol

me when its time to write another enemies to lovers slow burn forced proximity din djarin fic with religious undertones ^

just uhh for context btw im not gonna post many spoilers or other teasers for this but its important to the sneak peek that yall know that reader is a cyborg in this. a good chunk of the right side of her body has been replaced with robotics so yeah and din is a real dick about it lmao. enjoy !

⚙️

“I don’t travel with droids.” His voice reminds you of Boba’s when he wears that ridiculous helmet of his. Cold and hollow, more metal than man.

Boba sounds almost defensive of you when he speaks again. You can picture him leaning forward in his chair, the way he does when someone snaps at him. “She’s not a droid.”

“How much of it is even human?” You can’t help but flinch at that, no ones ever spoken about you in such a manner before. No one with a brain would disrespect someone like “Lord Fett” like that.

“She’s not an it.” Fennec speaks for the first time since all of this started, her voice is a hiss you’ve never been on the receiving end of before but you’ve heard her snarl at others before, slavers and other scum who come seeking a boon. You always wondered why such monsters would dare show their faces here, of course Boba dealt in criminal activity but never with people that foul. They often came seeking a Lord Fortuna, and were instead met with the barrel of Fennec’s rifle.

You can’t help but wonder if this “friend of Boba’s” is going to meet the same end. Both of them said they knew him well when he arrived but now they speak to him like the stranger that you know him as. A rude stranger.

The silence that follows is long, you can’t help but wonder if Fennec really did draw her weapon, before you can bring yourself to sneak a look around the corner you hear the all too familiar throat clearing noise that Boba makes before coming to a verdict.

“Look, either she watches the kid here, or she watches the kid with you. Either way she’s going to be involved, you just need to decide if you want to be there to keep an eye on her.” He always says everything with an air of finality, no wonder no one ever debates his decisions. The stranger barely has a chance to sigh before Boba continues. “No one trustworthy on Tatooine is going to take a babysitting gig for what you’re willing to pay.”

“I can’t afford anything more.” He’s furious. Even through the voice modulator you can hear that he’s trying not to lose his cool, but there’s an edge of desperation hiding under his anger.

“She’ll work for free. I’ll even cover her expenses.” You know Boba would do anything for you but this just seems like a bit much. He’s negotiating as if this man didn’t come to him asking for help.

“You want to get rid of her that badly?” Ouch. Rude and presumptuous.

“The last thing I want to do is lose her. That’s why I’m sending her with you.” You don’t doubt that. He’s proven to you enough how much you mean to him, even when he had no reason to.

“Sounds like you’ve made the decision for me.” Sounds like he made the decision for you as well. Has he even considered that you don’t want to go with him? Your desire to see the galaxy is fizzling out the more you think about having to travel with someone who doesn’t even see you as a person.

Another beat of that silence, dripping with tension before Boba takes control of the conversation once more. “She can’t stay here forever. I promised her she’d get to see someplace other than this dusty floating rock. They need me here. They need Fennec here. There aren’t many I would trust to do this but I know she’ll be safest with you. So take her or don’t, but you aren’t going to find anyone else to watch the kid for what you’re offering.”

“Find someone else.”

“There isn’t anyone else.” His patience is wearing thin. You know him well enough to know that he’s likely to snap soon. “You’re not the only one who’s trying to keep their family safe.” The authority in his tone reminds you of the exact reason no one ever argues with Boba.

Not even rude strangers who come bearing absurd demands and who claim to be friends.

“Fine.”

[fictionfixations]

finally going through penacony story (ive already seen it all but now im actually playing through it in-game)

am going to spoil in my thoughts up to the most recent penacony story. 2.2 i think?

also JP spoilers for book 7 of twisted wonderland

look she said im funny

HUH

AHHH

sorry i ship them so bad oh my god DEAR.

YEAHHH ITS ACHERON

i dont think i can see anyone else

i still dont understand what the red text means. i always thought it just meant that the text can be different for everyone but sometimes its just single words that are red and it makes me wonder why would it change? what would it even change to?

it didnt fully make sense to me so im still not sure

also i really doubt 'raiden bosenmori mei' could be changed so its likely more that its something important?

idk

actually this hits different after ive been going through book 7 of twisted wonderland (its a game btw, book 7. there is a novel and manga but not the point)

im going to keep it vague in case people havent gone through twisted wonderland

but basically. the wrong thing in those dreams weren't that it was just a dream (although thats why we're trying to stop it) its that in the process something they deeply care about is missing from that dream. they dont exist.

like. okay now MAJOR book 7 spoilers (im talking JP server spoilers. scroll past if you dont want to see)

Idia's dream had Ortho alive. but in the process meant that robot Ortho never existed (also that 'ortho' is in RSA), robot Ortho who ended up having an existence outside of who he was based upon, being seen as a member of the family, as another one of the Shroud's sons... just ceased to exist.

Lilia's happiest memory was Malleus finally awakening from his egg, but that means they were placed in war times, facing all this tragedy, not liking humans, not wanting children, and in a world where it also means he hadn't taken in Silver yet.

Rook's dream was where Vil and Neige actually got along and were friends in RSA. But that meant Rook never got that bond with Vil, never transferred to Pomefiore, never got to really be himself since he's been hiding the fan part of him in Savanaclaw. (his room is a nightmare tho wtf)

So. it's like a loss you face when reaching towards what would be your 'happiest' dream. It doesn't necessarily mean that say, Lilia doesn't care about Silver, because he does. but you can see what i mean right?

SPOILER END

dont remember this but i probably just forgot

'what you must do is ponder its significance. and then return to the waking world'

okay deja vu to the cutscenes in 2.2. huh. no wonder. its referencing this

also ayo

i love misha so much

mhm like your appearance right?

AVENTURINE I LOVE YOU (i switched to english voice over for you LMFAO)

im gonna end it here and make another post if i get more screenshots

[istherewifiinhell]

okayyyy also. tagged by @joelletwo for 5 topics i could talk about for an hour with no prep.

now. two things. 1. i have infernal podcast dude energy and could say a lot about nothing. weird trait to have if u dont like talking to people? hard to say. 2. GESTURES AT BLOG. im ALREADY. talking at length abt my beloved shit. so im just ruling out turtles, alien robots, trek, etcetcetc all the shit thats been a main blog topic for the last past. 4 years?

I'm gonna say.... western voice actors? not that i could really. Give a lecture so much as. I'm way more familiar with them that than I am live action actors. And I'm kinda just CONSTANTLY like. Oh you know so and so from every cartoon youve ever fucking seen? And FEEL a real. gap. with people when they dont have a same reference point. probably like how ppl feel with me when i dont know their acting guys jhadbgjfga. Like u can name 5 VAs from ur childhood cartoons/animated movies right? And personal interest like, hey btw u know like the entire cast of tng was in disneys gargoyles? U know keith david can SING? And diego luna? Hey you know about Canadian actors who are in all the dubs and video games and yeah cheap shit? You know Scott McNeil right? You know Ian James Corlett? You know. THE IAN. of being Ian. Hello. is this thing still on?

I really like and care about the topics of education, children's rights and pedagogy? Not academically so much as, personal interest. What seeing very clearly that there was a lot of arbitrary rules that involved things like. The Government. and Systems. as a child does to a motherfucker I guess? I'm always INTERESTED in a discussion about it, is how i mean I guess. Like focuses of multiple intelligence and "applied knowledge" (and short comings there of). I mean long and short of it. Kids are full human beings and until u can grapple with that their feelings and opinions um. Actually matter. I hate you? jdhbgjhdb. And Naturally the world being good for kids has the prerequisite of it not sucking ass for adults too....

UHhhh guh. User design/civil engineering? You'll hear it from me until the day I die, crushed under the tires of a ford f1 giga truck with the LED 20million watt bulbs. PROTECTED BIKE LANES. for the love of god. I just know a lot of designers I guess and like engineering, conceptually. But like, u know that famous bridge everyone crashes into. If theres 80million warning signs and people are still crashing... maybe theres. other factors. Or you know ofc like, traffic planning, vehicle accidents, structural disasters. A lot of them are not just. Things happening. Tragedies. There's politics there. Usually a lot of Money stuff. and structural racism. The real reason your fridge is full is that there's a bunch of half empty condiment jars hiding all your forgotten left overs. And widening the roads isnt gonna do shit for traffic.

Jackass entry: Themes and motifs of anyyytthing ive watched with another person or saw, and like they also know it. I realllly like, visual theming and narrative shorthands. Anything that breaks like, maybe people in this setting dont have the same customs, but their gonna do something so you the audience can recognize it. Non literal/accurate use of colour and lighting, for mood and clarity. Breaking the physical shape and scale of things so they can appear and be readable on screen. COSTUMING COSTUMING COSTUMING. A well styled character can do soooo much for your understanding of a work, especially with large casts, and a poorly styled one can take me right out. Well. anyway. yes i love animation u all knew that.

uhhhhh Thatgamecompany/giantsquids studio. im giving myself a free space. lol technically I DO. blog about this. the music. at least. BUT beloved. games. Me and everyone else I guess. Hey speaking of u know its laura bailey and troy baker as the voices in the pathless? And you know how a lot of the games have themes of coming into being/growing/rebirth. And LOTS of environmentalism. And implied cultural world building, and wordless stories. and beautiful metaphor rich otherworldly visuals. and gameplay styles that really connect with the emotional story their going for. and ofc, the music. oh the leit motifs. well. there u go. sword of the sea when?

tagginggg. uh did anyone get @deadgrantaires or @army-of-bee-assassins yet? anyone elseeee who wants to regale me with things they knowww about. id love to know.

[wiihtigo]

i kinda want to get into transformers do you have recs on where to start

hmm....probably one of the animated shows? or if any of the live action movies interest you, i really liked bumblebee (2018)

i think the g1 cartoon is great but its a little slow to watch on your own i think? unless thats just my short attention span talking LOL but i found it more fun to watch dragging a friend along to watch with me cuz its so goofy LOL! but starscream is great in g1 so its all worth it. and then youd get to watch the 80s movie afterwards which is a CINEMATIC MASTEPIECE and introduces hot rod (my friend). ive seriously watched the 80s movie like... several times and its great every time

cyberverse is another fun show, i have my criticisms but overall its pretty cute, and the episodes are only like 11 minutes. and i love the art style. really cute designs i think. earthspark and transformers prime are great too. i ended up like tfp way way way more than i thought i would. transformers animated was good :) i liked it less than the other shows though personally, but its very popular so check it out if you want..

i found the shows a good way to familiarize myself w basic tf lore and stuff like what the heck is "energon" and "autobots" and "So the Prime at the end of his name actually means something its not just his full name?"

after that i really liked reading the idw1 comics! particularly more than meets the eye and robots in disguise

honestly i tried reading mtmte at a friends recommendation before knowing anything about tf but i couldnt get into it because i didnt know any of these jobbers and i didnt know anything about tf so i was really lost the whole way. but after throwing myself into a transformers 101 class and coming back to it and rereading from the start i liked it a lot more

im still working...slowly....on my idw1 read through...i want to read the past comics that come before mtmte....but im lazy and stopped after megatron origins (which was very good btw)

so unfortunately i cant give any personal review on the rest of the idw comics chronologically aside from the wreckers saga which i did love...if youre up to it i think its worth trying out though..you can always skim things you find boring and no one will know. i wont tell

[itsdappleagain]

it is time for the crackle goes kiwi caper!

oh man. im so close to being caught up. hold on, stockholm, I'm coming and i WILL be on time (i hope)

thats auckland btw

notes under the cut as always

OH okay ive been saving a really old edit for this episode

you're welcome

oh opening thoughts on the episode. ummmmmm its good. i like it. only reason i would have to dislike it is i guess the sort of red crackle stuff from it but i dont hate red crackle on default so it stands as a good episode. i like the dancing and the stakes actually feel pretty high a lot of the time!

not player hacking into the russian government

ah, neal. neal the eel. he is indeed. an eel

also rhys darby is my favorite voice actor on the planet

also also autistic dr bellum real and true

YOU WILL TRY

YUHHH GET IT

neal loving puns 👍

the "coo" neal does after he escapes into the vent is the bane of my existence i hate it with a burning passion

i wonder if "project tripwire" is supposed to be an experiment left over from the cold war or something?

zack is enjoying his sandwich!

that lean over carmen's shoulder one hand on the desk one hand on his hip move shadowsan is doing is the most dad thing

top ten moments before disaster

GIRL THE 3/4 PROFILE IN CS STYLE DOESNT WORK STOP USING IT

i love that the vile harddrive is like. VILE google

CRISPY FRIED CARMEN

player: we need an electrician who knows their stuff so carmen doesnt get electrocuted to death!! the job they need done: wooo slidey thingies....ooooooo dont let it touch the line!! woooo!!

player in s1: we CANT let crackle get ANYWHERE near you he may be a SLEEPER AGENT or put you in DANGER player in s2: we cant 🥺 even bring him back to play for the good guys? 🥺🥺🥺

i guess thats probably because shadowsan confirmed that he doesnt have any memories or sleeper agent tendencies lmaoo

fun fact! graham's cafe does not in fact exist. it is a housing complex/ lookout

carmen could not have picked a more. i mean just what a cover story. obviously i get that its personal to her but imagine being an electrican and this lady who is even younger than you comes up to you and is like oh...yeah i run an international charity. for abandoned children how unaccomplished would you feel wheeze

i will never stop saying this but SAY GOODBYE OR SOMETHING PLEASE CARMEN

interesting that the "cuppa" he insists she has with him kind of sets off a shit ton of stuff for s4. if acme hadn't taken gray in they wouldnt have probably ever been able to help carmen get out of mind control, or it would have taken much longer. she wouldnt have been able to discover and destroy the robots. weird stuff

insert meme about people calling paper star tammy because of that one time she used that as a codename here. except its with player and peter

ALSO HEEY PLAYERS ACCENT FROM S1 PAID OFF...he was practicing...

where did they get that ballet which is perfectly synched up to the lights he needs to turn off

not bellum's ominous green lighting black shiny lab. so subtle

also you would think that the power station bellum draws ALL her power from would be better protected wouldnt you?

did they let crackle practice the "lights" because if they didnt- yikes that sucks and if they did- bellum's security mechanism just going haywire as he practices pjgkkjsghd

mm this scene is good

OH also. eternal bounce looping gif because mmgh that animation is good

that animation of gray adjusting the slides where he goes in like. an arc in reverse. good shit

carmen is so not normal about the electric fields i love her. i get you're supposed to be dancing but girlie just run and jump its ok

even more bouncy because i cant be stopped

I LOVE HOW BOUNCY SHE IS. LOST IN THE SAUCE (the sauce is tchaikovsky)

a nearly electrifying performance is the best way to tell your best friend you didnt just die in a really horrible way

honestly the quip about sheep is a pretty good one. neal is SO COOL his fight scenes are really fun. takes a lot of ingenuity for our mains to outdo him

also his score is SOOO COOL its like. its slithery idk how to explain it

HAHAHA SHE PROTECTED THE FACE AND HE WENT FOR HER LEGS

i love how she was just like "nah fuck this" and ran the other way

HIS "OUGH" WHEN SHE TRIES TO KICK HIM IN THE FACE DHGDJHGKD. WASNT EXPECTING THAT ONE I GUESS

she goes down really hard a couple times fighting him. you can hear after he mule kicks her against the wall that it hurt

carmen's signature move, the titty twister

that "slick" line has become a line i just repeat with the same inflection like five times a day wugewghdh

player's kiwi went a little irish there

why did he go out the back door looking for carmen if the rest of the "theater" was supposed to be the other way 😭

oh okay nevermind he's just. he just doesn't listen

gremlin bellum appreciation

gray is literally the luckiest motherfucker alive please

didnt carmen lock the door behind her also??? im so confused how did he get in

"carmen?" "sandiego" (clapping noise from the intro)

the little confused noise gray makes pls its so funny

also love how his first question is "what kind of concert hall is this" and not "why are we sprinting down a hallway"

THATS THE NIGHT THAT THE LIGHTS WENT OUT IN AUCKLAND (sick guitar) THATS THE NIGHT THAT THEY H wait a minute

so hot i love her

kill, my queen

WILHELM SCREAM!

i love the disgust and annoyance that immediately overtakes her face when neal shows up again

are we ever going to talk about how neal was trying to snap her neck or no

no? okay

it would have been really funny if that crackle rod was set to lethal

i love how she says "zackivy" as one cohesive unit

pls carmen looks so short next to cracker

sharon muthu is such a queen

love also how carmen is more concerned about gray recognizing the voice than bellum threatening to take out auckland. yes girl priorities

fantastic shot of her grinning and then getting all smirky about it. she's so hot. again

michael put his whole pussy into that scream/crikey

"it won't blow up in our faces will it?" "um just. stick your hands in there okay"

i love when cs uses "bad" colors like the red flashing warning light to indicate goodness like carmen winning

the crikeys are killing me

THE TRIPLE SHOT OF THE TRIPWIRE PROJECT BLOWING UP IS SO ICONIC

i love neal going from horrified at the explosion to looking at bellum like. what did you just say

crying over how carmen just looks at him with no expression on her face after he makes a kiwi joke

and now a series titled "OW!"

thank you

also carmen does a WHOLE FLIP when she crashes (not doing photos because its hard to see) but she goes down on her neck, does a flip, and then slides in on her stomach

wow! good thing carmen is okay after crash landing in the woods due to something going wrong with a glider flight. im sure that won't happen again, and even if it did I'm sure the consequences couldn't be that terrible!

it would have been funny if he had died on impact im just saying

maybe he did and the power of carmen saying the wrong name brought him back

if the copyright wouldnt blow them to hell and back im a thousand percent certain they would have had crackle ask if carmen was like james bond

carmen: ill explain over that coffee also carmen: explains nothing

wow look the line that jumpstarted me writing fanfiction. my first fic was a red crackle fic based off of this scene/the afterscene of acme looking at the cameras and speculations of gray joining acme. guilty ✋

carmen vaporizing on the spot and leaving graham with thousands of dollars is a vibe

yeah vile didnt lay eyes him. yep

ALRIGHT FUCK YES IM CAUGHT UP WITH CS WEEKLY!! STOCKHOLM HERE I FUCKING COME ON TIME YES BITCH MY FAVORITE EPISODE

[pilotheather]

we're back

youre trying so fucking hard to set up this unit spin off. im going to be horribly honest with you: i dont really care, and i think this is such a corny way to do it. i think torchwood (the show) is something people see with rose-tinted glasses a lot of the time, but i do think its slower introduction to the characters, completely isolated to its own tv show, made more sense. i feel like this weird vibe of just setting up these big personalities who all neatly fit into the exact archetypes you'd Expect... i dont know. i dont care for any of them. i love big weird non human robot-adjacent entities and i dont even care. and that fucker has cable-like tentacles too. i should be sold.

i think its also cuz they are like so obviously these Scifi archetypes for shows like this which is fine but leading first with a quickfire round of rather than getting a softer introduction to them just sort ofmakes them feel like fake cartoons. i think thats sorta why ive never truly warmed to paternoster gang too.

like i think my issue - and im welcome to be proved wrong, whenever we do get this unit spinoff - is i feel like its leading with the idea of "i want a spinoff" first rather than an attempt to fill a specific niche or hole for stories. i feel like sja and torchwood were both very specifically shows that would be in the universe, but would cater to things that would not suit the proper show, and had their own cast driving it.

like i'll be honest i like kate but ummmm im not sure i like her enough to follow her into a spin off. LOL.

sorry thats my hater era over im 2 seconds in

oh no nevermind i also hate big budget takes itself too seriously bullshit wheres the losers

is rose still meant to be like 15. her in business casual for the day job at unit.

okay The Vlinx.

WHYS THERE A LITTLE BEEFCAKE SECURITY GUARD. IS HE LIKE YOUR LITTLE BOYTOY, UNIT? sorry hes not even my typ. harriets really cute though

sorery i still dgaf

rtd and his anagrams. christ.

ive been laughing all day about a reddit comment that said "rtd is a" and i cant stop laughing at it and i dont know anyone who will find that funny in my life so i cant even

WHY ARE THEY JUST FUCKING

SORRY THATS SO FUNNY THEY WERE LIKE LETS QUICKFIRE ADDRESS THE STUPID MYSTERY BOXES. SUSAN. TARDIS... S TRIAD.... SUSAN AGAIN.

i really fucking hope it isnt susan. people have said it before but i just feel like ive always liked the idea of jsut leaving her be. dont revisit it. its fine.

sorry help me why are they just pulling everything out help me

i feel like theyre trying to be too meta about it and not in like a clever way its just like a lets state the obvious to everyoneits that vclassic TELLING NO SHOWING that i feel like christ it keeps ... feeling like the writing is doing that so much

CAN ANYONE TALK ABOUT HOW NCUTI LOOKS IN THE LEATHER JACKET BTW?

soery its like not even 10 minutes in and im like already feeling like a hater i just i dont know i feel like so im fine with them cashing in on nostalgia and being a bit self aware in finales sometimes but i feel like this and then the trilogy last year... LOOK most dw finales and special eps of the nu era are kind of rooted in some sort of classic right its like dalek dalek cyberman master dalek lets go to gallifrey for this one but its like still at least one thing sorry im sick of it i dont wanna see mel any more i dont wanna be in unit CAN WE FOLLOW THE DOCTOR AND RUBY see them figuring it out PLEAAASEEE they can point out its obvious its fine but the fucking round table discussion

SORRY I KNOW ITS BEEN THE HOT TOPIC ITS LIKE THE WAY THIS SEASON HAS GONE TOO FAST CUZ ID SAY A LOT OF THE EPS WERE GOOD IN THE END BUT ITS LIKE SO MANY OF THEM WERE TOO HARD DEPARTURES FROM WHAT WE REALLY NEED WHICH IS JUST

TIME WITH RUBY AND THE DOCTOR . PLEASE.

nevermind i love mel on the moped

ugh ive been wanting a bike for so long but i keep hjearing about so many accidents i wanna kms in a controlled environment

my second thought btw: i think one of my favourite season finales will always be s4's. and yes that does also bank on this big, lets have ALL OF THESE PEOPLE COME TOGETHER!!! and have one huge crossover event even if the story isnt as good. but as ivealways said: that works because its earned through four seasons of building up all of those individual characters. it can stand on that legwork thats already been done. i just dgaf otherwise. its why, and maybe this is controversial, i can never give a shit about a good man goes to war. (although i also loathe that because that storyline does my fucking HEAD IN)

[acorn-the-nuzleaf]

since theres apparently so much acorn lore could you summarize just his key surface-level character details (personality, family, occupation, etc) before you get to all the heavier world building trauma shenanigans

big fan of his design btw!

(hehe bounces around ive been waiting for this question for 11 months and 6 days now

Acorn is the member of a exploration team by the name of Team Seasky! The team is split into subteams, one being the Seedot Treehouse, made of entirely seedots +evos and fusions including seedot +evos.

Acorn, due to his once held role of being the Strongest Pokemon in the World of Coldour (the arpg he was in) he always appeared to be brave and confident…instead hes super anxious and nervous all the time but only shows this side to people in the seedot treehouse, having quite alot of fears and tramas from most of his original family being brutally murdered in front of him, the main fear mostly being of the sight of blood or gore (which is quite the bad thing when your always fighting a rival with a very heavy bloodthirst)

Acorn lived with his mom and uncle as a Seedot, Kaede and Micheal, and they lived next to another of Acorn’s uncles, Piccolo (can elaborate on them later) when a certain ‘trama’ event happened, causing Acorn to have to run away before being found by the leader of Team Seasky, Dew the Oshawatt (now a dewott)

Acorns entire team is like his family, which is…alot, but the main ones are Nuzbot, a robotic nuzleaf that Acorn thinks of as his brother, Oswald, Acorn’s aunt, Applesauce, one of acorns actual kids from when he was dating Tea the Tsareena. He’s currently married to MP3 the Meloetta, and they love eachother dearly hehehhebsksnjd they are the only couple ive drawn kissing minus a object oc couple i have.

at first he kinda forgot all his trama, like he tried to forget it, and did when he was first in Team Seasky, as all he wanted to do was become the strongest Pokemon in the team (which he very much is now) until he faced a Pokemon named Mother Nature, a brutal deerling/phantump fusion who killed everyone Acorn was traveling with (a scraggy, a snivy, and a pancham) which just reminded him of his trama 🎉🎉🎉

EDIT: OOOPS I FORGOT ABOUT BLADE ok Blade is the bloodthirsty guy, a Bisharp/Liepard fusion thats gone absolutely feral, really just out for revenge as Acorn’s uncle, Micheal, had defeated Blade’s mom, Darkmatter, in a battle long ago, so Blade killed him, acorns mom, cut off piccolos hand with piccolos own beloved surfboard, and almost killed acorn. Blade joined team seasky with the same intent to kill acorn, but having not been able to find the treehouse where they reside. He found it (recently) however, and brutally attacked and murdered Acorn’s best friend and co-leader of the group, Pest, a Bug-Type nuzleaf who secretly had a crush on Acorn

‘summarize it’ proceeds to write whole ass paragraphs summarizing just a little of his lore, anyways thanks about the design part! Hes based off the White Oak Tree, with mainly the color sceme and his leaf)

[cogbreath]

learning about atticus wing was. wow. i hate it here dawg. but also whats anyone to do? damn. sure the toons killed him. not happy to hear that at all. but damn. cogs inc isnt good. like its responsible for what happened to atticus, really. and its not like they really care either. i think i do hate the chairman. but i only know a bit about him. i dont know his backstory. but what i do know is really not good. anyway. i think that the corporation as a whole needs to be destroyed for the sake of not just the toons but the cogs. they are people too who are effected by all this emotionslly financially physically etc.

i mean really can you fully truly blame the lot of them for having a job. yes a lot of them revere the company. and yes canonically there are other jobs. but i wonder how good the job market even is?? perhaps its a lot like real life. i don't have a lot of experience with it. but ive heard what people say. so i presume thst cogs inc is competative enough to offer just enough benefits or better pay to make people want to leave their previous jobs for it. and probably everycog has their different motivations and hopes for it. some hope to just get by and make a living. others hope to climb the corporate ladder. but in the end it doesn't matter. its never enough. and the chairman is happy to get rid of you at a moments notice. he was gonna fire CJ. he doesn't really care how long youve worked how loyal youve been. CJ was an OG, and he was ready to fire him. Even if CJ turned the tables played the long game, etc... ultimately his circumstances are probably unique. i doubt even a manager would make it that long, would be able to happily retire like he did.

its a meat grinder in there. youre set up from day one to have your life, your very body used up until its unusable for even yourself for the sake of the company. its your fault btw per the employee injury report thing. always. like you can't even try to put blame on the company if they deserve it. yes the pollution and environmental damage its doing to toontown is bad, but damn i think we need to care more about than just toon welfare. and additionally the places previously effected by the pollution.

its tough because cogs do live off of oil and such. its literally food & water for them. so this means that some oil drilling needs to be done unless theres a possibility of reengineering them to run off more environmentally sustainable things?? you cant just stop entirely. youd be starving an entire society. and its not reallt fine just because theyre robots. theyre robots with families and lives and wishes and they have fun too. they can cry they experience emotions and heartbreak and love. theres a whole world and culture that we as toons are only faintly aware of but it would be wrong to destroy it all because of a monopoly in their society. its effecting them too. i want cogs to live i want them to be happy with their families and eat food and fall in love and find success and happiness outside of cogsinc. i rlly support and wish for cog liberation not cog destruction. okay thats all thanks for listening.

[ididkn0w]

That green and blue machine are both 125,000$ each can u fucking believe that. Only those two bro holy fucking shit. Omg and in the third pic u can’t see well but behind the fence is a robot arm it’s like a while ass transformer. And so it does shit don’t even ask me what but it was rlly cool. Btw this entire time Ive been at the restaurant and me my aunt and my gma and we’ve been waiting while my mom uncle and gpa talked with other clients and business ppl and babe it’s been like two hours and they just got back and they’re arguing about them bc idk prices n shit they said and whatever n they’re like yelling a lil at the table rn and my uncle is saying like u guys are treating this like a spy game and u guys are always so skeptical and thinking shit and my mom and gpa are like being like in a way it is we’re the top 20% more expensive in the market which is bad bc ppl want cheaper obv. N apparently an employee sent these people a list of our costs like how much It cost to produce n stuff n that’s rlly fucking bad like crisis type shit bc ofc we sell at a much higher prices and whatever like there’s a lot more to it that I don’t understand. Now my uncles saying u guys are always so negative and ppl are looking at us. Anyways I’m listening and talking to u it’s 3:31 pm rn. So back tl where I was. We went back to the conference room and they gave us giftssss Ik they’re like mini coffee cups. Omg bruh I can tell my moms backing out now😭 ok so I didn’t take pictures of them inside cus I wasn’t trynna open that shit. Oh yes and this typical Arabic cup to make coffee in. Cool souvenir or whatever. Ok I just got up it’s 3:41 rn I’ll finish typing In a bit. It’s the same thing following them around the fair. Then we finished the tour and got the gifts and then they took us to eat and resturaunt was sooooo pretty idk like the nature outside I felt like I was in the backyard of a rich Californian home idk and bro the food was soooooooo good and I drank Turkish tea again I loved the food. And once again no fucking wifi I always take screenshot to show u so we are and talked for like two hours and then we left and we went back to the factory and we left to the city again in the van and I slept the entire way and they woke me up and we were at a fucjing mall and I was mad as fuxk bc bro I was tired and I’m trynna get home to my man. And so we were there and like nothing was even open like it was rlly new. And I was bored as fuck but it was rlly pretty and then I’m so fr I took a picture of every cat I saw. And so we walked home and we stopped to get groceries and omg I forgot I to tell u at the mall we ate at a cafe. In the morning I took a picture of this place called mustafah u can look again n I thought it was silly bc everyone’s name here is mutsafah and we coincidentally ate there and it was sooooo good I ate a carénele tres leches it was so fucking good and I drank a coffee and they were in these cups that I loved they reminded me of u so much so I wanted them so bad so I went to buy them n they didn’t sell them so I got another ones that I think ull think are rlly cool they remind me of underthink logo. So they’re for our house. Then we walked home n we stopped be a grocery store for food and that’s when k got my Piña and then I stopped at this case place bc I’ve still been trynna get ur sparkly thing for ur cameraaaaa so I went and looked and asked for ur phone n they didn’t have any at that place but they had for mine but I just know they’ll have it at another one of those so don’t worry ur still getting one and I also got u this thing for ur charger u can put on it. I love you😄 n then got home n talked to u for like four hours I think even five

The history of my love kid oc thing Natila Vermillion

This is a long post but its also my post :3

Also to avoid tags im slashing all on brand names

No tags bc this is kinda me pouring all i can remember about making nat into one post <:3 more to come btw like me geeking about this one cor/tex artist in particular but rn must get nat off brain

She started out as either an experiment gone wrong or somehow cra/sh and co/co sabotaged cort/ex's shit again (funniest option in 2018) either way unwanted and quite frankly a terrifying situation for our science boys. I even have her original design actually-

She was more n gin coded back then but then i was like, "That doesnt make any sense at all n gin wasnt always a cyborg thing.." And the mousekeys have always been a thing. I love cott beasts so much like the do/om mon/key and the ratc/ians so i made the mousekeys to be mouse monkeys bc nat was 'monkey see monkey do' with cor/tex and n gin. Her blue hair comes from the fact I love cott too. Originally she was also supposed to have a decent relationship with o/ka ok\a (as in he didnt automatically hate her upon actually meeting her) but thats not really ok/a o\ka like ykyk? Ni/na hates nat and nat looks up to nina a lot. I based that on when i was little and maining ni/na in cra/sh ta/g te/am rac\ing. I didnt actually know how to play and mainly just did the tricks on the freeplay. Id always joke, bc i knew ni/nas personality despite not seeing any actual clips of her, that if she were real shed just hate me bc of how much i love her in general. (Bunches man i love that spunky gothic emo sciencey robotic girl)

But theres another twist- in 2018 when making this character i made a sub plot au thing- basically "what would a trash scientist do to trash their own kid?" The answer was, and you probably guessed it, leave the kid in the middle of the forest to die!! And yk who doesnt let that happen? Cra/sh and Co/co- literally i wrote 2 fics and the only difference was either just acceptance from cor/tex or be with co/co and cra/sh :3 i did little to no character studying at this point too- ive done more of that and went "oop" over my previous fics made in 2018- actually of the 4 fics from 2018 2 of them were n s fw and one didnt even include the love kid i had made. I uhhh 😳 cant explain that but i gender bent n gin and cor/tex in that one i thinkkk. 😳😳😳

Basically this character was born out of a love for two wack jobs um and i hope yall enjoy even tho i keep making these two evil guys out of character. Really just wanted this out and kinda off my chest.

[toxifoxx]

NO YEAH I ABSOLUTELY AGREE WITH U. ITS INSSANE TO THINK WILLIAM WOULDNT HAVE ISSUES PERSISTING PAST SPRINGLOCKING. this is why i always imagine him having chronic pain, especially in the joints, cause i imagine metal piercing you round there is going to have some pretty bad effects. ive also thought a little about issues with his digestive system like surely it would be hard to eat & harder to keep things down after having it punctured. lungs i've thought of a little less but it definitely makes sense given he says his lungs were filling with blood...

my bullshit reason for him being able to survive it is that, because he was fat, it actually helped to protect his organs from the worst of it (potentially bones too?). & thats a legit thing btw!

i think he would like crossdressing it makes him feel pretty... but also i think he'd deny himself of doing it. at least my personal interpretation cause he kind of has internalized toxic masculinity & ideals like that. tea liker of course of course idk about iced tea though i cant say shit cause i like never drink tea.

GIRLDAD FOR SURE. he loves lizzie so much ofc he does he built a whole ass robot for her. and also letting lizzie do that kind of gives him an excuse 2 not worry about his presentation for a lil bit (relating back 2 the crossdressing thing). yeh he absolutely loves them i think he just has problems with connecting properly cuz eeverything he does is kind of a performance. and also his own unresolved childhood trauma doesnt help

theater kid absolutely. fruity ass bitch just look at him /silly

hihihi don’t mind me using your inbox to ramble (again)

wanted to babble about some details i have for william bc ithin k its fun and i wanna be able to like ,, spread it to others .

ANYWAYS

william afton is hard of hearing : kind of get this w springtrap && how his right ear is mostly broken off . with the progression of decay (scraptrap) the entire right ear is gone and theres only so much of the left ear . so like . no ability to hear as well . maybe hed use hearing aids but tbh i see him being fluent with bsl and learning asl !

another thing that kind of adds onto this is how scraptrap loses one of his arms - either william was born without it or lost it to the springlocks !! its kind of fun to keep this detail as like . realistically having a amputatory character or just like - naturally having the missing limb all his life is fun too .

OHOHOH i also like to think that (at least in a fixit type au) when he retires he’d like to have a bunny farm <:3

oh very very cool ideas!! i never woulda thought of him being hard of hearing or missing an arm, thats a fun connection to make i think . do u think he would have a prosthetic arm yes or no

him wanting a bunny farm is very real and cute... i think he would like that...

Reader with Robotic Limb(s)

Author’s Note: I decided to replace Epel with Rook between the two requests. Also, by combination, I mean like one mechanical arm and leg. Again, I take reference from Edward Elric from FMA series who has one mechanical arm and leg. 

Request: Yes by @lunarapple

hello! may i request another part of “reader with robotic limbs” but with epel, idia, and malleus instead? (btw i love your newt!mc works even though ive never seen fantastic beasts, although i may watch it sooner or later because of your newt!mc. 😊 have a good day!)

ah i just seen you already have wrote idia with mc with mechanical/robotic limbs 😅 so sorry, if its fine with you may i request idia to be replaced with rook or floyd? whichever you more feel comfortable writing, you can choose 😄

Pairing: Floyd, Rook, and Malleus x Gn! Reader 

Warning: Fluff, Gn! Reader 

Floyd (Arm)

When you told him that you couldn’t go swimming and just wanted to sit in the pool at least, he had a fit and would ask you why before pouting when you told him that you didn’t want to. He would continue to pester you about it until he pushed you in and you nearly drowned due to the weight. Let’s just say you ignored him for a while and Jade had to explain to his brother that metal was heavier in water. Yes, he did eventually apologize. 

You can't tell me he wouldn't run around with the arm with you chasing him. He almost tore your arm off with his strength and learned how expensive your repairs are if you break the arm. On repair days, he would keep you company and nearly kill anyone who decided to have the audacity to pick on you. The only one who can tease you is him. 

Rook (Combination 

On the dark days, he holds you close and listens as well as reassure you if you want/need reassurance. I can see him tracing the indents/ designs on your hand. He would occasionally suggest switching to a lighter and waterproof design instead. He would doodle on your arm to give you tattoos. 

 

I’m pretty sure he has a suspicion about you having mechanical limbs and would investigate quietly yet respectfully. He takes in some of the clues like your strength in your hand, not a fan of heat or swimming, and wearing clothing that covered. He is totally fine about all of it and wouldn’t judge you about it, just making sure you’re happy and taking care of yourself. When you would eventually show him, he would shower you with affection and love for you. You think he wouldn’t pick you up?  

On the dark days when you’re feeling insecure, he would distract you from thinking badly about yourself. He will ignore your protests about you being too heavy due to your body modifications or such and carry you around like a happy couple, only if you're comfortable with it. He would serenade you and compliment you, you think you won’t get some love from him, and man were you wrong. He would also trace and doodle on your arm. He kisses where your limb and body meet when you two are alone, showing you love. 

He has his bow ready to shoot anyone if they try to pick on you during repair days. If both limbs were getting repaired, he would make sure you’re comfortable and spend the day with you or keeps an eye on his phone in case you need him while he is out and about. 

Malleus (Combination 

He sensed something special about you and would mention it, but never push you to reveal it. He would continue to be curious and try to guess until you eventually showed him what it was. You would probably be sitting for a while, explaining how everything works as Malleus eagerly listens and stares at your limb in wonder. He would watch the metal shine in the moon night on your nightly walks. 

There was a point where he offered an illusion spell to make them appear fleshy and there were two ways that it could go.  If you decline, you told him that you would know it wasn’t real and have come to accept their presence, even on the bad days. He respects your decision and tells you the offer will always be there in case.  

There have been a few occasions where he has broken your hand and would pay your mechanic to fix it. He eventually learns to not hold your hand too hard or keep an arm wrapped around you. On repair days, he would help and keep you company while your limb was getting fixed. He would either scare off anyone who tries to pick on you or watch you kick their asses with a cane. Another one to kiss where your arm and shoulder meet when you two are cuddling together.  

[vrabbiit]

Hey there I was wondering if I could request how Freddy and the daycare attendants would help a bullied reader? Ive been really badly bullied at work lately to the point where I don't want to go sometimes so I'm turning to escapism lol (love your work BTW)

i'm really sorry to hear that anon, and i'm sorry this took so long! i hope you enjoy it anyway!

⭐️ Glamrock Freddy and the Daycare Attendants x Bullied!Reader ☀️

⭐️Glamrock Freddy⭐️

Freddy has noticed that something is wrong for a while, but despite his asking if you were okay, you always just brushed him off, not wanting to bother him or cause any drama. That is, of course, until one day you reach your breaking point, and you can't hide it from him any longer. Breaking down, you tell him everything that's been happening, how helpless and miserable you feel, the whole story.

He is... honestly, the most livid he has ever been, but his worry for you trumps that. He'll comfort you until you're calmer, and then he'll ask if he can intervene (assuming this is happening at the Pizzaplex). To be honest, even if you say no he'll do something, he'll just be more subtle about it. If you do allow him to get involved, he'll pretty much go to the top immediately; he'll inform your bully/ies' boss immediately, and a complaint from the face of the franchise is one that's taken very seriously.

Honestly, they'd be lucky if they keep their job after it, and even luckier if they can get a job anywhere else in the industry - people talk, after all. Freddy is more likely to do things this way than confront them directly - he's non-confrontational by nature and also knows that it can make things worse when confronted, and your safety is his top priority. However, if worst comes to worst and you don't want him to do anything but he can tell it's hurting you, he'll have to take less professional means. Meaning, through his influence it suddenly gets more and more strict in their specific jobs - complaints are filed for the smallest things, and maybe even things that didn't happen (he really does hate lying, but it's necessary). Essentially, if he can't get them fired for their actions towards you then he'll get them gone by any means necessary. Don't expect to ever find out it was him, though!

☀️Daycare Attendant 🌙

Sundrop is absolutely devastated to find out someone would even think of being mean to you - in his eyes, you're absolutely perfect, and they don't quite comprehend that sometimes humans are cruel for the sake of being cruel. He'll try to combat the bullying by being around you as often as possible - if it's happening in work when he can't see you, he'll ask to get you transferred to work closer. If he sees anything happening, he'll absolutely try and tell your tormentors off - admittedly, getting scolded like a child doesn't exactly stop them. This is where they'd have to enlist the help of Moondrop.

You see, where Sundrop is a tad creepy but mainly well-meaning and wouldn't hurt a fly, Moondrop is not above intimidation. Expect your bullies to get shadowed constantly, like some kind of vengeful ghost. A vengeful, 9-foot ghost with glowing red eyes, no less. Essentially, the Daycare Attendants' plan to help stop your bullies is to scare the ever-loving shit out of them. And nine times out of ten, it works. Moondrop is not above threats either, and having both of them protecting you is a pretty sweet deal, all things considered. Eventually the bullies will learn that it's not worth being haunted by a robot that could kill them, and leave you alone.

Are your requests open? If yes i had an idea

How would bots (op ratch and wheeljack) react to seeing their charge all bruised and beaten up and turns out they fought their bullies?

If you've closed the recuests then ignore me mate❤

➪

         ,,GN! reader,, platonic relationship

         ➪

         ,, i hope you can forgive me for taking so long on this! 😭 i had immediately started working on it and as soon as i got to writting OP's part i got stuck,, so i hope you dont mind but i only wrote for ratchet and wheeljack - request are always open btw,, <3

         ➪

         ,, TW!!,, none

        ➪

        ,, word count,,

WHEELJACK

• the final straw was when they mentioned "your car," in a snippy side comment after pushing you into the lockers

• their exact words had been, "whered you get that thing anyway? looks expensive, maybe japanese, did you steal it? you probably did. considering the way you dress. honey if you need money just ask, i have plenty to spear," she grinned mockingly

• your patience had already been stretched thin with this girl. you had done every civil means of avoiding this situation with her,, you had spoken to teachers, your parents, the principal and counselors, she had been given detention and had to sit through school therapy sessions, but nothing had ever effected the way she treated you

• fuck the school record, you were sick of this bitch

• so, you did exactly what Wheeljack showed you when you had watch him and Bulkhead spar

• you balled your fist as she cackled at her own lame jokes, you swung and a sickening punch landed on her face, you swept her leg, and as your "enemy" (as Wheeljack had phrased it after complaining about this bully) was falling backwards with a cry, you tackled her while an angry war-cry

• of cource, her goons got to you before the teachers left their rooms to stop the fight

• and you gatta say, looking in the mirror of the nurse's bathroom, you were rocking the black eye my dude

• Wheeljack had been there to pick you up, he could whenever he was nearby or summonedfor missions, and when he wasn't, you rode with miko and bulkhead

• as soon as you plopped into the passenger seat, wheeljacks rear view mirror turned you

• you threw your back to the drivers seat and grinned wickedly up at the mirror

• "... is that the human make-up thing miko was talking about?"

• "nope," you smiled. and then after his confused silence, you gave the explosive-loving-robot the whole story while holding up a slip of paper intended for your parents to read that said in large font "suspended"

• he was a little surprised at first. sure, your a little spunky, but he didnt think you had the guts to do it with all your talk about "school records" and "college," whatever scrap that was

• "get 'em tiger!" he cheered as you both raced to base, "did you really use my moves?! i dont think ive ever been so proud of a sparkling before"

• "and your getting rewarded by your school for it??? i thought miko said theyd punish you!"

• "uuh, yeah so being suspended is a punishment"

• "how???"

• you shrugged

• and after several minutes of bickering over which bot's moves were best (wheeljack was deadset on himself, while you argued on arcees behalf) he asked

• "wait. you memorized my fighting technique, by watching me play-fight with bulk??"

• your guardian is proud AND impressed

RATCHET

• ratchet was not impressed

• he scanned your body as you sat on the railing near his work station and inwardly cringed at his disaproving scowl

• "no major injuries, just a small cut on your lip and bruising on your ribcage"

• you licked your bottom lip as he said so and winced,, chap stick wont fix that as you had hoped

• "care to explain yourself?" Ratchet sassed, shifting his weight in front of you and putting his servos on his hips

• you could tell he was trying to intimate the parental figure scolding thier child in the movie raf had picked out the night prior,, but the sight was too humorous to be considered imitating

• you swung your legs as you sat on the rail, "it was the bully..." you mumbled

• ratchets optics had softened at that, but you continued

• "i kind lost my grip and kneed him in the balls"

• "I-"

• "so technically I started the fight,, miko said it looked like i won though so thats something i guess,, am I in trouble?"

• eventually, after a long scolding on violent behavior, ratchet finally settled down and sent you on your way
