Well listen son, those override keys you’ve been huntin' are genetically encoded. And to get to Eleanor, you’re gonna need one from “Alex the Great” in there. First thing's first — we gotta pin him down. Find those plants he mentioned and lure him back out.

thanks for listening

The Smiling Friends get a call from Quantico! Something about a federal agent who's down in the dumps? I sure do hope they don't get wrapped up in a cannibal investigation!

Ekko straight beat the fuck out of jinx and people are frothing on their fanfiction ass ep but caitlyn elbows vi once and it's game over never redeemable ever.

Smoking crack

No literally its fucking unreal. Watching a dude beat a woman nearly to death and thinking thats cute while also watching someone essentially get elbowed and claiming its abuse is a different type of deranged

The reason this fandom hates IDW Optimus isn't because he's a cop (plenty of people are fine with Prowl) or because he's a bastard (most characters in IDW are) but because he commits the crime of being an actual person who's messy, flawed, and makes a shitload of high stakes mistakes fitting for the intense situations and pressure he's put under constantly.

But we can't have Optimus actually react to his situations by lashing out or being unpleasant, no, he has to have the personality of a cardboard cutout of G1 whose only defining personality traits are "dad, funny, nice," and if he ever vents negative emotions it can only ever be #relatable depression or him being sad on his own without ever letting it show during the important parts of the story. If Optimus dares do things like be angry or frustrated or bitter it's just a sign that he's a bastard and LITERALLY the worst Optimus ever. If Optimus ever makes mistakes or does wrong things in the heat of anger/frustration/stress it's because he's just an evil bastard with no redeeming traits.

God forbid Optimus go through an unending gauntlet of war, politics, atrocities, near-complete loneliness, and a seemingly endless cycle of violence for his entire life and come out of it kind of bitter, angry, and tired of dealing with people's shit. He's not allowed to be a realistic person, context doesn't matter, sympathy doesnt matter. IDW Optimus doesn't fulfill the fandom's fantasies of Father Figure or Perfect Cultural Icon or Twinky Fucktoy and since that's the only reason most people care about Optimus in general, the fandom collectively trashes on IDW OP.

All because he can't fit into the overly simplified and childlike double standard the fandom has where if any other character is messy and flawed, that's good writing and interesting and compelling, but if OPTIMUS is messy and flawed, he's Literally The Worst and he's an asshole for no other reason than He Sucks, context be damned

I think it would've been really cool if Transformers One got Linkin Park to make their theme song now that they have Emily as the new lead singer. It's something new but the nostalgia would be there

"Liking X ship makes you a proshipper" FALSE. It could also make you an extremely hypocritical anti whose head is so far up your ass that you think you are the only person on earth with morals.

The husband had me watch the entire series of Murder Drones because he said that if it had come out in highschool, I would have made it my entire personality

He was right

Anyway we're both debating on making OCs for it so that might happen soon, we're thinking about cosplay (mostly for my sake because Im the cosplayer of the 2 of us but he didn't say no so I win) and have my little list of points I made after we watched it

We had fun LASJDKALS

[jew-flexive]

everything i've learned about ofmd has been against my will but oh my GOD am i so glad i never watched that show....to all my mutuals processing yet another fucked up The Only True [& Christian!!] Redemption Is Death story line, ooof my thoughts are with you

[yrrtyrrtwhenihrrthrrt]

Guys guys guys good news I had another horrible thought !

So you know how the Institution (comic ver.) goes around plucking homeless orphan babies off the streets so that their child soldiers will feel a sense of debt and loyalty? (I gotta give credit to @mer1099 for informing me of that I never ventured to wonder where the orphans came from lmfao) And we know our Ambrosius was one of said orphan street babies who got plucked up.

Well as far as I'm aware, it's never specified who exactly is plucking these kids off the street. I doubt the director has the time for that, I also doubt that they have a team of people whose sole job that is. I imagine it's just a situation where if anyone who works for the Institution finds one, they just are supposed to bring it back. Since they're police, they'd probably be the ones finding street kids anyway.

So regarding all that: Do you think Ambrosius ever found one? More than one, even?

Do you think he ever was wandering around, on or off duty, and found some dirty scruffy child eating trash and hiding in an alleyway? Do you think he felt a deep sense of unease as it reminded him of memories he'd long ago walled off? Do you think he approached the child with a big smile on his face, and said "You don't have to be scared of me. I'm the guy from the statue!" and promised to take them someplace safe before bringing them to the Institution orphanage and feeling proud of himself that he did a good thing?

Maybe he watched them grow up and become a knight, or maybe they were still little when everything fell apart. Maybe he brought back many little kids. Maybe he felt like he had a responsibility to go out looking for them, to save them.

Do you think, after everything fell apart and the Institution was dissolved, that he laid awake at night thinking about them, wondering if he really had done the right thing?

oh so it's serious serious now
