Myrida-11 and the Chronospinner twins

Aka, me thinking the funniest set up for an Omniverse crossover with Transformers: Animated would be for Kevin's car to be sent (probably via magic) to Detroit and turned into a cybertronion.

I was going to/want to do more iconic vehicles from the series (the Rustbucket, Kevin's orignal car, the Prot-Truck, the Tenn-Speed, etc) but drawing the timebikes' legs fried me. totally worth it though they look amzing :)

Some Random Tidbits:

Myrida-11 (pronounced mY-Ride-ah), is virtually indestructible and armed to the teeth due to the immense amount of upgrades installed into her by Kevin and Rook pre-spark. Though laid back, she is always ready for a brawl, no matter the opponent's ties.

The Chronospinners (them/he) are more on the mischievous side and love setting up traps. Like the jet twins, the two can combine, and this is the only way for them to access their spaceship mode as well as time powers. This does not happen often, however, as the two prefer their separate forms. Roto does not use contractions and tends to take things literally where as Omni picks up Earth slang rather quickly.

Their eyes, not shown, are a pale yellow like their headlights.

when you think about it ben's life is kinda sad and fucked up, and probably overworked

i mean unlike other teen heroes, they still hide their identity, they still have much time for their personal life and a privacy

and ben however, literally got his identity outed and he can't even have a day off without some bad guy bursting out of your door, probably because the villain knows what you are and knows where you live, and I think I read somewhere that he's considering moving to plumbers because how much trouble he's bringing to his hometown

and the fact that you are really well known, not just the people won't stop bothering you because you are popular, some people are not gonna treat you like a normal person because of how powerful you are, and not to mention how it will affect your school life and social life, you are basically not one with your classmates anymore because how different you are now, and you can't keep up with your grades because of your hero life (the fact that they confirms that ben still goes to school, it's just always away, and the fact that's he's considering going to college)

also he's really overworked, the show confirms that he works a part time job i think, and idk if he's paid at the plumber at all, and nah how's this dude not break down and collapse yet cuz all the school, a job and a hero life pack all to you and still be fine 😭😭

ben's case is kinda different from the other teen heroes cause man, he's isolated and alone from his hero life from the other people

[sheeperzzz]

gonna spam u some boops rq but what are your personal thoughts about the alternate bens?? I love hearing others opinions and etc. About them 😼 also happy halloween!!

RAUGGGG I JUST SAW THIS??? Tumblr be eating my asks 😭😭

IVE ACTUALLY GOT A LOT OF THOUGHTS ON THE ALTS. I love AUs so much, so it's fantastic to just go crazy with rambling. Here you go!!

Bad Ben: Bad Ben is actually very, very interesting to me!! I love it when a good character becomes a bad character in terms of like their role. I would have LOVED to see more about him! I don't know, there's something about heros becoming villains that just makes me go bonkers. I feel like they COULD have added a slightly different color scheme, though, instead of just making him mint. By different I mean literally keeping him looking the same but inverting the white/black on him. I feel like it would have been a subtle change that could represent him deeper as a flipped version of Ben.

Ben 23: MY MUNCHKIN. I LOVE 23 SO MUCH HE'S MY SON. So I actually really do enjoy the concept of him! Someone without guidance, just doing whatever their teenage mind tells them is right at the time. I quite like him! I do think he could have been a bit more out of character, though, since Max did play a huge part in Prime Ben's life (and Max couldn't in Ben 23's). Maybe a bit more careless, but who is Ben if not careless in his actions? 23 could have been significantly more moody, at least in my opinion, because I don't think he would have gotten over Max's death and he's got the teenage brain, but otherwise, I adore him! I really wish we could have seen more of him.

Mad Ben: SEE NOW MAD IS MY SECOND FAVORITE BECAUSE I LOVE ME SOME APOCOLYPSE SHIT. The only reason he doesn't surpass Zarro Ben is because he is not a zombie. But anyway, I do like Mad! Again with the "good-guy-turned-bad-guy" trope, but also because we have confirmation that he went crazy with power and was trained under the unforgiving fist of Vilgax. It makes me INSANE and I do love him. I do think he'd find a way to break out after Mad!Rook put him in chains, though, since- y'know. He's a Ben. Ben's are known for being little bastards. Mad totally has some tricks under his sleeves.

No Watch Ben: See I'm not the biggest fan of No Watch, but I do adore him!! The only Ben in millions of Universes to have never gotten an Omnitrix? Hot DAMN. He is so very unique. I actually love him so bad, even if I don't talk about him or mention him a lot. He's always in the back of my mind just chilling out. I do believe that he is skilled when it comes to weapons, especially guns and artillery! He's just a little guy to me.

Benzarro: BENZARRO. ZARRO. ZEE. ZARRO BEN. BEN OF THE ZARRO. I LOVE HIM. SOSOSOSOSOOSOSSOSOSOSO MUCH. I LOVE ZOMBIES. Dude, if you could see 8 year old me, he'd be tweaken out so bad because ZOMBIES!! I LOVEEEE Apocalyptic Zombie Outbreak things. Benzarro is not the exception. Benzarro holds a special place in my heart as the mandatory undead character that makes a show good (jk, but I do love him so bad if you can't tell XD). Honestly, I don't have anything too bad to critic about him! I only will say that I wish his body was a little more decayed, especially on the side without the Zombitrix. I draw him with more decayed flesh and missing chunks because of it. But otherwise, I adore him SO much.

Eon: He counts, right? I actually really like Eon! Blah blah blah "Good guy is now a bad guy" shtick, but I actually do quite enjoy him! I imagine him as another version of Bad Ben instead of Prime. I think he used to have an Omnitrix, did bad things with it, and it broke along the way during one of his biggest heists. No longer having that power he relied so heavily on drove him insane, and now he wanders the Universe in search for a power just like it- not realizing he has achieved something far, far greater. I think he's cool :)

Gwen 10: I say she counts since she has an Omnitrix and would be considered an "Alt Ben" even though she's literally Gwen. But I think the concept of her is super cool! I like to imagine that she knows about her Spark, but never got too connected to it because she has the Omnitrix. She totally uses her aliens in every day life, and as a typical pre-teen, she also goes bonkers with them at times. She gets the zoomies as a Vulpimancer and denies it ever happened XD

Prime Ben: What can I say about him that everyone else already hasn't? He's the original wieldier, and I think he's chill. He's the base for all of the other Universes. Nothing could've happened without him :) THANK YOU FOR CHECKING OUT MY RAMBLE IT MEANS A LOT THAT SOMEONE ASKED EHAEHAHEAHEEE. I'm not including Albedo in this one because I do not believe he is an alternative of Ben! I think he's more-so a brother of Ben, since they've got the same DNA now (save for a few changes that made Albedo white and red), just send another ask for Bedo boy if you want that ramble too >:)

hiii hello I don't know if you're still into Ben 10 but i've been perusing his tag and was curious as to what chromastone is like in your au? also I gotta say, feedfreak is something I never thought of and it makes? so much sense?

hi there! yeah im still into ben 10, ninjago just took over my mind lol, but chromastone in my au is pretty goofy in my au, though he can switch to someone serious like diamondhead very easily. if theres ever any sort of conflict or argument between the aliens chromastone is usually the mediator. hope that answers that question ! as for feedfreak ohhhh my god they make me soooooo ill.......... idk how i got the idea for feedfreak it just kinda appeared in my brain one day and i got so unreasonably attached........ im so obsessed with the "opposites attract" trope and feedfreak fits into it perfectly, feedback the laid-back goofy guy and ghostfreak the sarcastic serious moody guy, they balance each other out and im soooooo sane about it <333333 moot of mine (redisloser) made a ship child/fusion of them called dimidium and i love dimi so much

i'd love to continue my ask feedfreak blog but unfortunately i havent gotten any asks <//3 not surprised since shipping between the aliens is already kinda a rare thing, and usually the ships are of aliens from their respective shows (like four arms and diamondhead, thats probably the most common one ive seen) so im not surprised people dont really care for feedfreak, i appreciate you mentioning them so much tho, i will take any excuse i can to talk about them, they are so near and dear 2 me <3333

My first thought when i saw this: TFP Ben 10

Given how this 👇 is Ben's canonical car:

You aren't too far off lmao (mostly on the colour at least).

You might not be particularly a fan of CNA from your sphere of headcanons, but considering that Ben can access another biomechanical species in the galvanic mechamorph, I'm sure there's enough of an Omnitrix work around to sample cybertronian data. Seeing as it's a Camaro you could probably have a TFP x Ben 10 crossover equivalent to TFA Waspinator maybe, a green Bumblebee (or a green hornet if you of/remember that) but it's Ben. Considering how the biomechanical Upgrade has a few biological translation issues to the point of not quite technically being a fully integrated transformation, maybe Ben would speak with his own voice like Upgrade does or maybe even through radio depending on how physically different cybertronians are to human anatomy.

I mean that specific line of thinking would only be possible if Ben snagged a sample of Bumblebee's CNA (or whatever you'd prefer) which could either be convoluted or unclimactic, though I guess if street racing in some part of the globe with a desert (aka somewhat nearby Bellwood which already exists cross universe between Ben 10 and Generator Rex) there could be some plot about his shenaniganery nearly running Team Ben off the road and messing with Kevin's own heavily modified yet fresh from 1979 Dodge Challenger to the irritation and anger of Kevin himself. Something something Bee got the attention of the wrong (mostly) humans(ish).

So my friend, @jackzilla1954 , is rewatching ben 10 omniverse

(directly before wishing happy new years)

I remember the resistance he gave when I spoke of them as a ship when I was rewatching it 2 years ago.

It’s nice being right

[dittotruther]

completely unrelated to Ditto,,, but the temptation to start a Ben 10 re-write fic but revolving around a genderswapped Ben (Jen/Jennifer Tennyson is the name i'm workshopping but open to suggestions) but it feels like that being the core idea (also self indulgent bcus trans girl moment) is sortaaaa lazy? i dunno! if you have any thoughts on any of this please let me know!

Tetramand cybertronian hunting season

Too tired to dive into it but I fully believe that Tetramands’ hunt Cybertronian’s for sport and that it is very likely legal from the Plumbers perspective.

They probably prefer Decpeticons because their more of a challenge and have more weaponry and materials to harvest, but they aren’t likely to be too picky.

There are usually some attempts of letting the smaller bots go in order to “let them grow some more” but half the time they become enraged at their fallen comrades and fight to the death.

[rainyraisin]

I had sm art motivation but then it all just disappeared what the heck motivation :((((

[minnesotamedic186]

Okay since I just got jumpscared by the Dorito boy doing a Screamer I'm gonna leave this to the professionals for a bit, though I will give you these in the meantime

[theangrycomet-art]

If TFA and Omniverse are the same Universe, I think it makes the most sense for TFA to take place in the future/Ben 10k's time, due to the generic futuristic feel of the Earth technology in TFA.

With that being said, Animo would likely be VERY interested in the Techno-Organic baddies that occasionally plague Detroit, especially a potentially parasitic wasp creature.

Long ramble about the loose timeline below the cut but TLDR: Wasp gets kidnapped by Animo and subsequently rescued by the younger Team Tennyson. Said rescue was not a clean one and was the incident where Kenny and Devlin were grounded for getting in over their heads. Between Glitch and Lynn, they manage to repair the poor guy from the injuries sustained from the process of purging his organic half. The "Waspinator" that's extracted from Wasp remains with Animo.

COMMISSIONS OPEN

(I want more Bumblebee-Wasp parallels dammit. Wasp needs at least one real friend who actually cares about him)

In my interpretation of this TFA/Ben 10 timeline, Animo would capture Waspinator to examine him in an effort to recreate an army of techno-wasps under his command.

Despite being told explicitly not to, Kenny and Devlin go to investigate and discover the lab Animo has set up as well as Waspinator. Glitch, having tagged along, finds Animo's set up fascinating and goes to explore it while the boy's fight Animo.

Between Glitch's ability to repair damaged DNA and Animo's set up, Waspinator is "split", i.e. he stripped of his organic half, which forms as a separate entity, hereby referenced as Waspinator leaving behind his severely damaged Autobot frame in car mode, hereby referred to as Wasp.

Waspinator promptly attacks Kenny (who was currently as Armadrillo), forcing Devlin to focus on it instead of Animo, who in turn takes an interest in Glitch, whom he hasn't seen before.

Kenny switches aliens, and finds Waspinator is no longer interested in attacking just him, instead moving about erratically and destroying all of its surroundings.

In all the chaos, Animo makes off with Waspinator as Ben and Kevin show up to find the boys badly battered and Wasp's damaged form.

Glitch (exhausted from the repairs job) is simply asleep as the two father's tear into the boys on their recklessness, grounding the both of them for an indeterminate amount of time.

Lyn shows up with Kai not long after the rant is over and notices the weird vibes coming off the car, and decides to take it. It's when she's back home and starting her repairs on the "car" does Wasp wake up out of stasis mode and reveal himself.

After a series of blood curdling screams from both parties and several wrenches and work benches being thrown across the garage do the two finally calm down enough to explain to eachother what the hell is going on.

Lynn assures him that she's not gonna let anyone mess with him, and eventually gets to continue working on the repairs she'd been doing before while getting the rest of his life story, starting a very strange friendship.

[cessmaga]

hot take but I'm never really that big of a fan of rook, he's just ok and I never had any hateful grunge towards him

it's also the fact that I'm never really a huge fan of rook and ben's dynamic, idk it's just your typical opposite attract reckless and loud and level headed but they actually like each other type dynamic (maybe I'm just tired of the opposite attract tropes) and that pretty much about it

I actually like solo ben episodes because it shows how he actually interacts with the world and the situation around him without any guidance or a partner surrounding him

tbh I would actually like a solo ben show and maybe having a partner sometimes (I'm not gonna remove rook completely)

[sheeperzzz]

Thank you for asking for the lore of Celestialsapien Ben! I wasn't sure if you would have wanted your name mentioned in the post. Your tags are very kind <3

No problem, friend!! I think Celestialsapien Ben is absolutely amazing >:) HE LOOKS SO COOL, AND IM IN LOVE WITH THE IDEA THAT THE WATCH FUSED HIM TO THE CELESTIAL DNA. HE IS SSKSISOSOOSOSJVDNDZBEBZJSBHDS/POS

[moxielynx]

@whatudottu hihihihiiiii so ur ramblings about tetrax has me wanting to talk about tetrax cause i will take any opportunity to talk about him

d-23 tetrax is cool even if he didnt speak much in the episode, honestly d-23 ben deserved to be smacked around a little (/J /J that kid is like 13 😭), the twist that they were actually the good guys this whole time was great, especially since sixsix was also working with azmuth, which was a nice perspective

i like to imagine that d-23 tetrax is actually a total sweetheart and didnt actually like fighting ben since ben is just a dumb kid who doesnt know any better (even if he is a stubborn brat)

im pretty certain that petropia in the reboot is perfectly fine because for a while Vilgax wasnt. Vilgax, so he couldn't have hired Tetrax to steal whatever that crystal was from petropia then destroy it, so reboot tetrax is just what happens as a result of Tetrax not facing the consequences of his actions so now he's a MEANIE!!! but the dad instinct is still there judging from the way he interacts with Ben in "Mutiny for the Bounty"

as much as i prefer classic tetrax i really like that they went with a completely different approach with reboot tetrax, and like it makes sense too considering theres no way petropia would be destroyed in the reboot as well if vilgax couldnt do it (if petropia were to also get destroyed in the reboot then that would be so funny cause that basically means the planet is fucked no matter what 💀💀), its really cool to see that this might be what tetrax was like before working for vilgax and makes me really think about how different each version of tetrax is, and only makes me even more depressed that we never got prime tetrax in Omniverse, especially since there could've been so many moments where tetrax could've showed up

classic tetrax obviously isnt as cruel and uncaring as we see in the reboot or as he said when he was telling ben about his backstory because if he really didn't care as much but was like "okay this is fucked up i need to get my act together" then he wouldn't have looked so distraught watching his planet fall

i refuse to acknowledge the change in reaction in uaf tho cause it fucking SUCKED they cant just turn him into this stoic fucking guy after he literally shows up and shakes ben like a rattle, that and also they obviously didnt gaf about his backstory cause in the og backstory you can tell petropia's destruction was YEARS, probably decades ago cause he had those back spikes and even a different outfit but in the uaf version its just the same exact model THEY DONT CARE ABOUT TETRAX LIKE I DO!!!!!!

uaf tetrax made me so sad because i was already insane about the idea of dadtrax because of Secret of the Omnitrix, but when tetrax first showed up in uaf he picked up ben and for some reason my first thought was "omg is he going in for a hug" only to have that ripped away from me when he just straight up starts shaking ben around like a ragdoll 😭like imagine you dont see a guy for like 6 years, last time you saw him he helped you save the world/galaxy, and the first thing he does is fucking shatter you for no reason (or at least appears to be no reason), and all you get from it is a "sorry but i had no time to explain", like thats crazy, the REAL tetrax would never harm ben that is his SON !!!!!!!! and then after the single episode we had of tetrax and even petropia we just. never see him or the planet ever again. like we could've had so much world building for petropia and they decided to just throw it out like it was nothing

tetrax is genuinely such a cool character and its horrible how underutilized he is in every show, like yeah he was in 2 (technically 3 counting the reboot) movies but that doesnt really make up for how little we really saw him, especially since like i mentioned earlier prime tetrax wasnt even in OV which is probably the biggest missed opportunity in history, and the strangest part about it is that we got plenty of episodes exploring different planets and even a whole other system (galactic monsters special) so it was literally the perfect opportunity to write an episode about petropia and how its holding up

also never apologize 2 me about rambles, especially rambles about tetrax, i fucking LOVE reading people's silly little thoughts on things they like :3

[albino-parakeet]

Trying to act so normal at work and not bring up the existential horror of failing to stop the destruction of the universe, creating a copy of said universe, and then just having to go back to living life despite knowing every single person you know and love are just copies and are now constant reminders of the ones you couldn't save. From a 10 year old cartoon...
