"I don't speak for a select few," Says Megat over the sound of the band crooning on Club Eden's stage, "Freedom is an intrinsic human right. There is none to to be had under the boot of your oppressors, the strength of the people has proven that the world over." (Tokwan ORIGIN / pre 0079 lore)

[lord-squiggletits]

Fandom posts about Megatron's trial/him being put on the Lost Light that frame Optimus as the bad guy are always so fucking funny to me. And it's almost never "Optimus putting Megatron on the Lost Light was an abuse of authority and unfair to Rodimus and everyone else on the ship" which is an actually valid critique, but I often see it from Megatron fans who are somehow convinced that Optimus was like.............unfair to him?????? By "making" Megatron join the Lost Light? Or by "forcing" him into doing things he didn't want to do?

There's the people who think that being put on the LL was a punishment for Megatron where they were constantly putting him through moral tests designed to make him fail which is.... literally where, where did you get that. The LL was just a random cruiseship of misfits who didn't even ask for Megatron to be on the ship with them, where are ppl getting this idea that Optimus/the LL crew were in some sort of Machiavellan plot to torment Megatron and rub in how he's so evil he'll never be accepted?

Or like the fact that wanting to join the LL in search of the Knights of Cybertron was literally Megatron's own idea and the whole "only the Knights of Cybertron can judge me" thing was a legal loophole that he only pulled out bc he was mad about Starscream publicly humiliating him during his trial? And that if Megatron really didn't want to agree to the terms of his parole, Optimus was just going to keep him in prison until the LL came back with the Knights rather than immediately executing him?

Oh but Optimus made Megatron drink Fool's Energon. Ah yes, it's so evil and unfair of Optimus to make Megatron (one of the deadliest fighters of their entire race) drink a substance to make him weaker due to the fact that in far space, there's no one to enforce Megatron's parole or to stop him if he was lying and really just wanted to kill everyone. And btw Fool's Energon was a placebo the whole time, so Optimus' gay ass couldn't even poison Megatron properly. It was entirely a token gesture made for appearances only.

What about the part where Optimus made Megatron denounce the Decepticons, you cry? Well if one were to actually read the entire speech instead of taking screenshots out of context (something this fandom loves to do), the "we were wrong to assert ourselves" comes directly after a statement about technoism and subjugating organics; in other words, "we were wrong" is referring to the whole colonialism and genocide thing, not saying "we were wrong to rise up against Functionism." (Which btw Optimus was literally a fanboy of Megatron's and agreed with his writings, and pre-war OP did his own undercover work to foil the Senate's plans, and they overthrew the previous Prime Zeta together, so idk where people are getting this idea that Optimus hates Megatron for being a meanie revolutionary that didn't play nice >:((( ).

And given that the Decepticons attacked Megatron's trial to try and break him out, and that there was a splinter faction of Deceptions under Galvatron that were trying to invade Earth again, I think it's pretty fucking reasonable that Optimus would go "So before I very indulgently grant you the rank of captain and let you go on a random cruise ship for your journey of self-actualization, would you mind making a speech to deradicalize the Decepticons? I'm trying to keep society from not descending into another civil war and you helping by telling the Decepticons to Fucking Stop is the least you can do in exchange." I mean if Megatron cared so much about the Decepticons he could've said "No, I'm not going to give that speech, in fact I'm going to stay on Cybertron and speak to the Decepticons my way" but he didn't bc he decided that going on his personal quest was more important than sticking around to integrate the Decepticons back into society.

But somehow, Megatron choosing to make that speech so that he'd be allowed on a ridiculously lenient parole is the big, evil Optimus' fault, and Megatron has nothing to do with how poorly the Decepticons are treated post war, he had no power to stop that apparently.

Like it's just so incredibly weird to me that Megatron fans villainize Optimus for, of all things, letting Megatron join the journey for the Knights of Cybertron. Optimus' decisions were almost entirely driven by personal bias towards Megatron where he abused his authority as Prime to defy what quite literally everyone on Cybertron (and possibly the whole galaxy) wanted, which was Megatron's immediate execution for his crimes. He lets Megatron free of prison with almost no oversight, grants him captaincy of an Autobot ship, gives him a freaking placebo instead of actual weakening energon, and the only thing he demands from Megatron in return is a speech to make the remaining Decepticons who were still fighting (which wasn't even all of them) understand that the war is over. And Megatron accepts all of these terms because the whole thing was his idea that he wanted to be allowed to do. The only reason Optimus' indulgence didn't go badly is bc Megatron wasn't lying and actually meant his heel-face turn.

But somehow all of this makes Optimus the bad guy who's being unfair to Megatron???? Never mind Optimus' flagrant disregard of the law in favor of granting Megatron's personal wish??? Never mind the fact that the conditions for Megatron's parole were incredibly lenient to the point that one of them was a placebo and not hurting Megatron in any way??? Never mind that the speech Optimus made Megatron make was entirely for political reasons to try to stabilize society again and not bc he wanted to humiliate Megatron or something ridiculous like that???

What I mean to say is it's very confusing to me why the discussion of Megatron's trial is "Optimus is so mean/bigoted for making Megatron do what he did and forcing him to live under such strict conditions" and not, idk, "Megatron chose to abandon the Decepticons and publicly denounce their cause for the sake of getting to go on his own personal journey" or even "Megatron was initially going to just submit to trial, and the Knights of Cybertron excuse was something he pulled at the last minute because Starscream made Megatron look like an idiot and Megatron decided he wanted a more Grand and Important legacy than that." Or even "If Megatron cared about the Decepticon,s he would've just refused Optimus' deal and stayed in prison on Cybertron rather than trade the dignity of their cause for his own freedom." Nope. It's all Optimus' fault. Poor Megatron was forced onto the Lost Light and this is such a horrible and unfair punishment for him.

People want Megatron to be a poor downtrodden victim of the Ebul Autobots so bad, when the reality is that post-war/early MTMTE Megatron is nothing more than a dethroned tyrant, severely in denial of of his own shittiness, going on a journey solely to benefit his own ego, and all of MTMTE/LL is about him trying to get better from his stupid pride and self-centered behavior.

Silly tfa idea, just a one-shot.

So Megatron gets captured along the Decepticons and brought to Cybertron.

Except Longarm Prime's identity hasn't been revealed. As far as the Autobots are concerned, he's still the friendly if a bit boring bot they all know.

And of course, he takes it upon himself to interrogate Megatron alone. How brave, they think. If only they knew the true relationship between Megatron and Shockwave!

They plan a lot on how to get the Cons out of prison. But they also frag. Sometimes both at once. Until Megatron gets sparked up, and it becomes a desperate race against time, because the Decepticon heir can't be born in an Autobot prison.

That, and what kind of sire would Shockwave be if he let that happen?

So it's up to him and Team Chaar to get them out.

Okay so yes

Dear Primus that's gotta be so fucking funny

Like, this dude? Longarm Prime? For as long as everyone's known him, he's just been this swell guy who gets the job done and doesn't have a life outside of work. In their optics, he's volunteering to do something many other mecha would beg not to. They think he's taking on the task nobody else wants.

Shockwave over here is playing 4D chess and turning this "interrogation" into the perfect way to feed the autobots false information, directly relay information to and from Megatron with wayyyy less chance of getting caught, and also rekindling their very much missed sexual relationship.

... until Meggsie gets sparked (Megatron this is why you don't let your BC implant expire)

Then it's 🎶PANIC PANIC REVOLUTION!🎶

It would be so cool to see Shockers work with team Chaar in his frantic efforts to get his Lord turned babymama out of prison (also because if they find out Megatron's having a kid, there's a chance his cover might get blown from sheer "yOU FRAGGED MEGAT—" energy)

Ooohhh. Bad Bet question!!!

I was wondering how you created the characters. Do you have a page on each one all drawn up?

I think I'm correct in assuming you mean the original characters, so I'm going to roll that way with this question.

First of all, I want to mention that I try to avoid OCs in fanfiction unless I decide they're absolutely necessary. And in a long fic like Bad Bet, they really were unavoidable. The reason I avoid writing OCs is because, as a reader, I'm not in a fanfic for the OCs -- I'm there for the blorbos from my shows. That being said, if OCs are necessary to the fic, I don't shy away from.

But the fact that you think I have meta documentation on my OCs is very flattering and totally untrue. 🤣

The OCs have an alarming habit of walking into the story and then telling me who they are, and I actually feel wildly out of control with them.

They show up and say, "I'm doing what I want. You can just deal with it."

*** Bad Bet SPOILERS under the cut. ***

Mark was the worst offender.

He walked into the story, and suddenly I was daydreaming about who he was and what his motivations were. This was when I was writing chapter 5 back in February of 2023. Back then, I still had the utterly naive belief that Bad Bet would be less than 100k. Back then, I thought the Blue Room would be nothing more than a setting where I'd redirect Porsche back to the Theerapanyakuls. Then Mark, THIS asshole, rolled up and was so interesting to me that I suddenly realized, "Oh, shit, these guys are going to play a significant role, and I want the Blue Room to come back in the second half of the story."

He was just suddenly so fun to me. To get a set of fighters at the Blue Room who would do what they did for Porsche, I needed someone like Mark who would be highly biased in his selection of who fought in his rings, who had a motivation for selecting guys who would do what they did for Porsche. Mark had to be a leader who would lead in such a way that this behavior would be encouraged. Mark had to be SO specific for that scene to work. Without Mark, that environment normally would not support that scene. That environment, without Mark, would be "to each their own, every man for himself."

That was also when I slowly realized I was fucked and Bad Bet was going to be enormous. (That and the fact that I still hadn't gotten to the Chay reunion yet, which I originally thought would be a little sooner.)

Sure enough, when I worked out the rest of the outline, I had more than double the fic that I was expecting.

Davies similarly showed up in chapter 1, and suddenly I had a circus ringmaster on my hands. He wanted to be a showman, and all I could think was, "Sir, where did you come from?"

Alix, Santichai, Dan, Happy, Ford, Megat, they were all somewhat better behaved. But I still have no idea why they are what they are. If you told me that spirits possessed me and wrote themselves into the fic, I might actually believe you.

Mek, however, my beloved random, mature bodyguard, is my own personal running gag. Mek appears in multiple fics and will continue to appear in multiple fics.

Hey, please help my friend.

My buddy Beau's cat has medical issues that require an expensive surgery. I know I don't make posts here very much, but this is important. I know Beau, and I know he loves his cats.

If you have any ability to add to the gofundme he made for this, please do. If not, please spread this.

Unfortunately we live in America, and everything is expensive. For the love of god just help my friend.

[disregardcanon]

yellowjackets full names i made up on my drive today

Shauna Elise Shipman- already had this one. I just like it idk what to tell y'all. elise sounds pretty with shauna

Jacqueline Kennedy Taylor- i'm sorry, but with jackie's parents? she was clearly named for jackie kennedy and i feel like they WOULD go that far.

Laura Lee- she doesn't have a middle name. her parents just gave her a first and last so that when she gets married to a man she can be Laura Lee Husband's-Last-Name.

Natalie Antonia Scatorccio- i don't remember which fic it was that used this one for "something catholic" but i love it. very pretty will keep

Misty Ann Quigley- it just feels like something that would be RIGHT for misty. something very generic that doesn't quite fit but isn't bad.

Vanessa Irene Palmer- I like the sound of it and i do feel like when van was born her mom would have been the type to think "VIP" as initials is really funny.

Taissa Nadine Turner- this one was also chosen for the initials because i feel like taivan both having that is cute. tai's initials are TNT and Nadine both sounds good with with other two and means "hope" which i feel like would fit with both her parents' dreams for her and taissa's personality. the girl just keeps going

Benjamin David Scott- i like the sound of it and it would be fun for his middle name to match a queer icon: david bowie

Akilah Nicole King- nicole means victory, which i think would be tragic with akilah who's trying so hard to keep going but we know won't make it. and king just sounds really good with akilah AND is a common name across the board

Mari Gabriella Flores- middle name is from the angel gabriel that declared to mary that she was gonna have a baby because mari "i hope that shauna doesn't die" being named after gabriel is PEAK comedy to me. also flores is one of my favorite hispanic last names and i want to give her flowers. on account of the pit

Genesis Stevie Kondo- okay look, i know a person named after genesis the band and the idea of gen being named after genesis the band AND stevie nicks is entertaining to me. also marie kondo and getting rid of stuff with care and kindness and poor gen is getting thrown out of the cast by being killed. do you see my Vision TM

Melissa Jean Collins- common middle name and last name that i thought worked well with hers

Kristin Cassandra Megat- i made this name up for god honoring cannibalism and i'm very fond of it for crystal <3

Charlotte Elizabeth Matthews- of course mr. matthews would give lottie both an incredibly bland and aristocratic sounding name. middle name comes from both elizabeth ii and it just sounding fancy

Travis Rosario Martinez- i know that rosario skews female, but it IS gender neutral still. and let me tell you, travis One of the Girls TM, virginity was jealousy guarded and then he was punished for having lost it being named partially after a famous devotion to the VIRGIN mary. i like the themes

Javier Alejandro Martinez- alejandro is very pretty, means warrior which is a sad sort of ironic, and then his initials are jam which makes me giggle

ADULT TIMELINE

Jeffrey Lee Sadecki- lee is very common, very short, and could facilitate some funny moments with small callie where she mishears jeffrey as jeff lee or jeffrey as jeff free. and thinks her dad's name is either jeff lee sadecki or jeff free sadecki

Jacqueline Elise Sadecki- ha. ha ha. hahAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Simone Jada Abara- jada means wise, which is a trait i would associate with simone, and it also sounds good in there.

Samuel Isaac Abara-Turner- i am worried about sammy tonight in this chili's so i am giving him the worst curse i can on a christian child: naming him isaac after abraham's issac. i make things worse on purpose :)

Walter Ichabod Tattersall- he has no glory because he's just a weird little guy and i like that about him :)

Kevyn Ringo Tan- i am cursing kevyn with not only the y he already has but his parents being this type of beatles fan. idk i feel like someone using a y for kevin in the late seventies would be the kind of person to name their kid after ringo starr

Lisa Marie Hawthorne- giving lisa a very common middle name and a fancy, wasp-y last name complete with nathaniel hawthorne's generations away from puritanism guilt. it feels right with her mom being the way she is

that's it! that's the end of the characters i care enough about to do this for
