something they don’t tell you about being autistic is that every character you write WILL end up autistic/autistic-coded whether you like it or not

[i-love-orion]

as an asexual i always forget that sex and sexual things in nature are like... thought about everyday on purpose. any sexual thoughts i have are purely intrusive.

basically sex jumpscare

Incredible how when Orion came back as Optimus he IMMEDIATELY got the thousand-yard disappointed-dad look of sadness stare every Optimus has. You would think that look in his eyes would have to be cultivated over 4 million years of war, but NOPE. TF One Optimus broke up with his boyfriend and IMMEDIATELY hit said boyfriend with this look:

Sirius: I accidentally poisoned one of these cups and I don't remember which one.

Remus: How the fuck do you forget something like that.

James: ACCIDENTALLY???

Regulus: With the way this dinner is going, I hope it's mine.

[nikolai-alexi]

Orion: you know, Regulus, when I was your age—

Regulus: when you were my age you fucked your second cousin. take a step back, cousin-father.

its crazy how the entire plot of transformers one could've been derailed completely if orion and d16 had just. any moment at all to chill out. bc d is shown to be conflict avoidant and generally level-headed, and it's not usually in his instinct to, yknow, start killing people??? he could've turned back to peace on the basis of his trust in orion alone— if they were just able to pick each other's brains about the whole situation and have a normal, non-rushed chat!! but noooo, they discover a political conspiracy then a revolutionary base and almost die many times... the breakneck speed of the pacing almost feels like the writers built up megop's relationship so well that it occurred to them that their cool story idea would start unravelling the moment orion and d had any time to hang out whatsoever, so boom! get kidnapped, sucker!

Every other MegOp pair can go home all I care about are these two. Everyone else is irrelevant

Them <3 Your honor

“Can’t believe Orion Pax took a bullet for a dictator” guys he didn’t do it on purpose 😭😭😭 he jumped in front of D-16 and fully expected him not to shoot. It was just bad timing.

Orion Pax would not purposely take a bullet for a dictator but he WILL fight his friend over how best and when to kill a dictator. It’s not that he didn’t want Sentinel to face consequences, it’s just that he thought his friend was making a rash, bad decision, and Sentinel’s fate got caught in the crossfire.

Remus: I don't think Sirius is very happy about you dating his brother.

James: What makes you say that?

Remus, reading a letter aloud: Prongs. I hope this message finds you before I do.

Delusional Megatron with amnesiac Orion goes so fucking hard.

TF One Megatron would be super desperate to keep Orion safe from anything that could not only harm him but could give him back his memories. But Orion is Orion and it’s like he’s trying to get himself killed.

It starts off small with Megatron trying to convince Orion that he needs to stay at the decepticon base. Then out right threatening Orion to stay put or else.

With Orion he at first sees his situation as something to be solved he loves mysteries after all. But D-16 is acting super weird and controlling. Orion kinda understands he doesn’t have a cog so he’s vulnerable. Besides it’s not like D would hurt him. He even giggles when D threatens to remove his limbs to prevent him from escaping again. It’s just all talk to Orion… it was supposed to be all talk.

And this here is today’s attempts at drawing Transformers, specifically TF One

I had this idea when I started today, since I knew the faces and noses were giving me trouble yesterday, to try this paintbrush style. The logic in my brain was that the movie was made in 3D, so logistically a more lineless style should work better, right?

I do admit, I think that the lineless style works far better in terms of the eyes and noses being the right shape, but I also admit my lines are probably a bit too soft and I may need to darken them. As well as get something good for the actual thin lines, since the paint brush on its own feels too thick, even at the lowest size

And you know what, since we’re here, does anyone have any Procreate brushes they can suggest for this sort of style? Right now I’m just using Flat Brush, but I wonder if I should use something else

Anyways, so this canvas was supposed to be more D-16, but partway through I figured I should try someone else to draw as well, so I decided Orion, so we could have the yaoi

Honestly my big problem with Pax here is that I don’t have a good comprehensive reference for him, while I can get by just fine with D-16. These were about the best I could get, and that last one I only got because these other two weren’t cutting it

I need high quality references of these characters, or at least specifically their faces. And I’m gonna need even more if I plan to draw Megatron and Optimus as well

But yeah, Orion’s here, and I was also having trouble getting the correct colors for him, because I’m stupid and used to flat colors. D was pretty easy considering he’s just greys, and a yellow tinted grey works just fine there as a grey (though I do admit I’m struggling with his eye color), but I feel like blue tinted Orion looks too blue by comparison. But I don’t know how to give him his proper face coloring without it being the same shade as D-16

I feel like my words aren’t making sense. But just get that Orion colors are a struggle. And still are, because I still don’t think that other grey is the right color

Also Orion has a significantly more complicated helmet than D, so that’s fun

I really wasn’t planning on Orion taking up so much of the space, but I needed to actually practice how he looked so that I could draw him easier. I had numerous attempts at D-16 prior, I could sort of understand his look, but I was flailing in the dark on Orion and needed the practice

I think another problem is that I don’t make him wide enough. But sue me, my character designs usually don’t have their bodies that wide/their heads that small. I’m working on it

I capped off this canvas by just deciding to make a small doodle of Orion kissing D, since why not and also I was too lazy to think of anything else to add

Where do we go from here? I have no clue, but hopefully it’ll go good
