#sg galvatron

[starscreams-crown]

Cliffjumper: "Alright... Megatron was the good guy here, he died, came back as Galvatron. Optimus Prime is a psychopath craving power. His brother is worse. Treatshot is obsessed with bringing Ultra Magnus to justice. Sideburn and Demolishor were some weird underbase thing. Oh, and Starscream is actually kinda cool..."

Reasons to ship every single version of MegOP

since Very Dumb Discourse™ exists about whether or not certain versions of this ship are valid, this is going to be THE most positive post about all versions of MegOP. refer back to this post for reasons to ship your favorite version of MegOP if anyone gets weird about it with you. now let us begin!!

G1: goofy '80s faction dads fighting each other in a denny's parking lot every week LET'S GOOO, that shit is fun as fuck. orion pax also totally had a celeb crush on megatron before megatron ruined that and shot him and his pals 😔 and there's a lot of angst you can add with megatron becoming galvatron and optimus coming back to life to see how much he's changed!

BW: it's the sheer fucking comedy gold factor of a newly minted college graduate and a terrorist dinosaur IMMEDIATELY singling each other out on a prehistoric rock and deciding to call their daily gang slap-fights the BEAST WARS, what iconic drama queens LMAOOOO. also, megatron made his final body in BM look like optimal optimus SPECIFICALLY to fuck with him, and that's just...incredible

UT: the fact that megatron CANONICALLY acted like a grieving widower over optimus after he died in armada is. amazing. never forget their absolutely insane obsession with each other that they can never EVER give up on played a direct part in unicron nearly ending the world <3

Bayverse: this is the one continuity of all fucking things that gave us the lore about megatron being prime's lord high protector. absolute galaxy brain writing from the tie-in comics. also these two would ABSOLUTELY have the messiest, nastiest, most brutal hate sex imaginable, and that's beautiful. <3

Animated: optimus being a rookie washout underdog and megatron being a super scary much older warlord is a really interesting and underrated fresh take on their dynamic! lots of fun to be had with exploring what their relationship would be like after megatron finally acknowledged him as his archnemesis, lol. also...age AND size difference ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Prime: do i even need to say anything, i'm pretty sure that one flashback still of orion and megatronus being friends is responsible for birthing a million shippers for this pairing alone LMAOOOO. the bitter ex-boyfriends energy was TRULY off the charts in this show, it's a damn shame megatron never appeared in RID15

Cyberverse: same bitter ex-boyfriends energy but this time with dates at maccadams. megatron also dies encouraging optimus to beat the unhinged alternate dimension megs AAHH THE ANGST

IDW1: they're both depressed gay war criminals in this one who CONSTANTLY live in each other's heads rent-free and that's amazing, lmfao. also, megatron becoming an autobot means this is one of the VERY FEW continuities where it's not nigh impossible to figure out a way to give these two a happy ending together in fanon

IDW2: space date space date SPACE DATE. they were falling together and everything. megatron also LITERALLY tells optimus to open himself to him...to give him the matrix...yeah megs my dude i'm sure that's the ONLY thing you wanted from optimus "opening" himself. toootally positive, lol

G1 Marvel: megatron was SUPER fucking pissed and weird as shit about the time optimus died over a video game. it counts

Dreamwave: their first fight had megatron urging optimus to join him AND they disappeared together in a space bridge explosion once which is like, a fanfic-esque setup for them to be alone. also i'm pretty sure this is the continuity where optimus accidentally gave megatron a lobotomy, so...uh...potential for angst is to be had

SG: mirror universe!! evil crazy villain optimus with noble goody-goody hero megatron has so much potential for absolute chaos. bonus if you also bring in the normal versions somehow through multiverse shenanigans <3

KP: the only way this version of prime can redeem himself from the creepy underage human girl bullshit is if he gets a good hard dicking from megatron. next

Prime Wars: huge "ex-husbands go on a road trip with their disgruntled daughter" energy here. megatron also LITERALLY says "oh optimus, if only you could see me now" <3

Earthspark: again...need i say why? they're pals and working together from the get-go, what's not to ship??

Skybound: optimus literally wears megatron's arm. truly beautiful <3

TF One: it's not out yet but give it time. the entire movie is going to be about orion and d-16 being madly in love and tragically breaking up, baby!!

Japanese G1 continuity is absolutely not normal about girls but damned if they don't give us some of the best ones

There was a significant amount of Transformers continuity released between 1987 and around 2007 that was produced in Japanese and is really only known to most English-speaking fans through fansubs, dubs that were only released in Australia, and the like. Shows like Headmasters, Victory, and Zone. Manga like Victory and 15 Go Go Go Teletraan (which was really mostly Kiss Players). Radio shows like Kiss Players.

I'm gonna be super up front. Japanese G1 is not normal about femmes in any way, shape or form. At the same time, it gave us some of the BEST and most underused female characters in the Transformers universe.

Headmasters, which came out right after the US G1 show ended, is particularly egregious. In Headmasters, Arcee has been reduced to Fort Max's administrative assistant, uses ridiculously polite and subservient language, and is also the only medic. And being a medic would be kind of badass if they let her be as badass as Ratchet, you know? But they absolutely do not.

Also, in Headmasters, Carly (now married to Spike) allows her son--a freaking child, not even a teenager--to go on missions when Spike can't and a human is needed, because uh, for some reason it's better for a 12 year old boy to go, not an adult woman?

But most of the good femmes don't come from Headmasters. And some of the best femmes we have are from Japanese G1.

Super-God Masterforce made it up to us by giving gave us Minerva, a human girl who is a Headmaster with a robot body (transtector) making her basically a bad ass mecha pilot, and who actively does fight.

The Victory manga gives us Esmeral, Deathsaurus' incredibly classy wife, and Lyzack, Leozack's twin sister, who is in charge of defending the homefront but really does want to go out and fight. Illumina appears in both the Victory manga and the anime. She's a little human girl who has a crush on Jan Minakaze and is always trying to get people to choose nonviolence.

(Lyzack later appears in an English-language comic - the Wings Universe--wherein she's basically Deathsaurus' servant and Starscream hits on her. I don't like that.)

There are a number of great femmes who were only ever toys. The Cobalt Sentries set gave us Howlback, leader of the Decepticon military police (called the Cobalt Sentries). She is basically Ravage's twin sister but instead of being super stealthy she can turn your attacks right back on you.

(Later she appears in several English language comics and in at least one she is canonically trans. I'm not a fan of her depiction in the SG Recordicons Batman tribute arc, though.)

The Unite Warriors toyline - Takara's response to Combiner Wars, basically - gave us the combiner Megatronia, made up of Megaempress, and her four guards, Lunaclub (sometimes called Luna Clover or Luna Trefle), Flowspade, Moonheart, and Trickdiamond. They are incredibly awesome.

(IDW 2019 used Trickdiamond, but none of the others. Tricky was one of Swindle's contacts.)

Then there's the elephant in the room that everyone pretends isn't there...Kiss Players.

So, okay. There is nothing normal about Kiss Players whatsoever. On the other hand, I'd rather listen to KP than watch RID2015 which is just blatant copaganda from hell.

Kiss Players had an interesting plot involving little bits of Galvatron and Unicron getting into humans and creating the Kiss Players--humans who could give TFs a powerup by kissing them and then merging with their internals somehow. Then there are the Legions, the dick-tongued monsters that everyone who hasn't actually listend to the show or read the manga thinks are Megatron.

The dick-tongued monsters are gross. It is also gross that some of the Kiss Players are barely teenagers and definitely not adults and are constantly ending up in Situations.

But the plot centres around the apparent rise of Convoy, or Optimus, from the dead, and his transformation into a weird groomery dude, which many people don't understand there was an actual reason for, because it's not Optimus, it's someone else riding around in his body.

Melissa Faireborn is like if you chopped Marissa Faireborn's IQ in half, dyed her hair blond and threw out any pants or skirts that covered her knees. She is nothing like Marissa and I treat them as cousins, but Xiaoxiao Li is amazing and her real lover.

Anyhow, this female scientist (Dr Amaou) lost her mind over the loss of her daughter during the events of the 1986 movie et sequelae, and she's got to be stopped from turning Atari and her Autorooper robot pal into a permanent fusion to reincarnate her daughter Shizuku (whom for some reason I always want to call Setsuna instead).

It's a little confusing because most of the really good parts of the plot got jammed into a few episodes near the end of the season, although once you know what it is, it's clear that it's being set up. That artist just likes borderline lolicon way too much.

The second season of KP is very squeaky clean and sends the girls out to collect what they think are Allspark fragments, and they are very annoyed because Ravage, whom they call "black panther man" keeps getting in their way and fucking with them, only to later find out that the bots who gave them this task are Unicronian heralds and Ravage is trying to stop them from helping Unicron do what Unicron does.

Rosanna, everyone's favourite robot pop idol, comes from the second season of KP, although you don't see very much of her or her companions Glit and Sundor.

Incidentally KP sets up the Unicron Trilogy and some of its characters end up in the UT--which did come to the US, and gave us Alexis Thi Dang.

(This post is brought to you because I just wrote an Esmeral thing and someone was musing separately about Megaempress as a parent and I almost ended up writing this post while reblogging them, because I'm a nerd with a hyperfixation).

Did I Ever Really Know You? (SG TFOne Fanfic) - Chapter 1

Because I am very much enamored with this AU. I have made fanfic. It is long so I apologize.

Anyway, for context, this happens post-movie with Dee being with the High Guard. He's referred here as D-16 since he hasn't become Megatron yet (and in my SG TFOne AU I'm still debating whether he even renames himself to Megatron or if should skip into renaming him as Galvatron).

But yeah, feel free to ask stuff about my SG TFOne AU if you like this fic because I love to yap, especially since I have SG TFOne brainrot.

Edit: Now with chapter 2 skskks

next

“Little dude, this may be too soon, but I think it would do wonders for you to talk about what just went down.”

“Both of you, give him time. The past few rotational periods must have taken quite the toll.”

“Shockwave, it’s nice of you to show your concern and while he does need time to recuperate, it is better to address this now. With the rise of a new Prime and the threat of the Quintessons still over our helms, we need to prepare for future problems that may arise.”

D-16 was used to noise. Ever since he had first gone online surrounded by his fellow miners and even after being assigned to his mining group. At work, the shouts of other mechs and the rumble of the energon flowing through the mines was a constant source of sound that at times even followed him to recharge. So, he wasn’t overwhelmed as Soundwave, Shockwave, and Starscream talked over him. He wasn’t even overwhelmed when Starscream had first approached him and started to ask him questions.

Really, he was fine. It wasn’t the High Guard that made him feel so sick. They had been kind to him already. They could have left him to wander the surface of Cybertron, or worse, left him in Iacon to face the wrath of a mech he’d once thought of as his friend (maybe even more). Instead, they had taken him with them back to their base, and had even offered him a berth in case he needed a moment to recharge after everything.

Starscream and Soundwave didn’t even demand much really. They had only wanted him to explain everything that had happened the past few rotational periods. To explain who Orion Pax really was. What had the mech gone through that led him to what he had done? And from that information, they could calculate what might possibly happen now that Pax was Prime.

Shockwave had come to his aid, perhaps worried that it was all too soon, that Dee was still on the verge of a breakdown.

As the three High Guard mechs talked, Dee looked down at himself. The trauma of fighting Pax was visible in the scratches on his frame. Glaringly, the worst of it was his right arm… or well, Sentinel’s right arm. Cogless as he had been and with his right arm having been accidentally axed off by Pax, Dee had done the best thing he could have done as his friend went on a rampage. He had taken Sentinel’s arm, wincing as he stared down at the mech’s ruined frame, and had done everything he could to stop the Prime from attacking innocent Cybertronians. Still, there was nothing to be done against a Prime.

Dee vented hard. He was only alive to tell Pax’s story to the High Guard because Pax had let him live. That had to mean something.

“Pax was my best friend.”

The three High Guards snapped their helms towards him, their optics focused entirely on his frame, but Dee’s processor was lost in the past. 

“He’d always been… a peculiar mech, but I loved him anyway…”

—

When we first met, Pax had been aggressive in his approach, but most miners were - who wouldn’t be if you had to work so hard everyday? I had just been assigned to my berth, and… I was distracted and muttering to myself. If I had the spare time, I would indulge myself in my own dreams, the same way Pax would - though he kept his dreams to himself and only stated them out loud if he had been riled up enough. I don’t remember what it was that I had been thinking of, but I must have been calculating the best approach to mining or even constructing a blueprint of something I would never have the chance to make, because it got Pax’s attention. He was assigned across from me, and he glared at me when I had first reached my berth. He must have been close or he must have moved closer when he heard me speaking.

“I’m surprised, I thought there wouldn’t be much of a processor underneath that big helm of yours.” I jumped, turning my optics to the purple mech behind me. His arms were crossed in front of his chassis, those light yellow optics looked me up and down before a smug look crossed his face. “You may just be the most interesting mech I’ve met since I went online. I’m Orion Pax.”

He held out his servo and I gladly took it. I was worried that I wouldn’t get along with my fellow miners, yet here was a mech who wanted me… well, wanted to be my friend. “D-16.”

He had clasped me on the shoulder, walking with me as we headed to work. “I couldn’t help but hear you. Quite the mathematician or scientist, aren’t you?”

“What, me? No, no. We’re miners.” I had shaken my helm, embarrassed to have been caught. If it had been any of the other miners, they would have laughed at me for holding such dreams, but Pax had stared at me as I said those words and a part of me felt like he understood me. “Yes, we’re miners but… a mech could dream. It’s ridiculous I know—”

“Dee, I’m going to call you Dee, having a dream is not ridiculous. They may have designated us as miners, but we are so much more than that.” He had clasped me closer, optics wide with determination that I couldn’t help but be enamored by his words. “We may not be able to transform, but that means we have to show them we could be so much more even without cogs.”

“And what about you?” I asked. “What’s your dream?”

It had been inspirational at the time, but now…

Pax smiled, his dentas white against the purple of his frame. “I want to know more. I want to be more, D. I will not be a miner forever, I can promise you that. And hey, maybe I’ll take you with me once I leave this dump.”

I shook my helm, laughing at what I had thought was a joke. “That would be the day. Well, if you work hard and get promoted enough, I’m sure Sentinel Prime would designate you a job befitting your dreams. Or if we’re lucky, he’ll find the Matrix of Leadership and we wouldn’t have to mine energon.”

A dark look crossed Pax’s face at the mention of Sentinel. I don’t know, maybe even as early as that, Pax already had a resentment for Sentinel and his lot in life. Primus, I really should have seen the signs but Pax had been such a dreamer - and I had indulged him because… he was my best friend. It was only meant to be a dream. Nothing more. We were miners, and that’s all we would have ever been.

The anger in his optics had quickly disappeared as I mentioned the Matrix. “Or maybe some other mech would find it for him. Maybe I could, since Primus knows, Sentinel could use all the help he could get.”

There was an underlying insult to that statement that I had ignored then.

And, as if my statement had given him a great idea, Pax had nodded - a smile gracing his face plate. “The archives should have information I could use… and hey, I could even sneak some mathematical information for you if you want.”

My optics widened at the suggestion. We had only just met, and already Pax was planning on such a treasonous action. Even worse, he was dragging me with him… I still stayed. Why did I? Even then I felt that Pax would be my downfall. Yet I stayed.

“What? No way! That could get you scrapped if you get caught. Forget it, we’re miners. We just need to do our jobs well enough that maybe Sentinel will praise us once it’s all over.” Pax had looked disgusted at me when I said those words, but he had still clasped me close - having already decided then that whatever my disagreements with him, he was still keeping me. “Don’t do anything stupid.”

“I won’t if you stop being such a stickler for the rules.” He seethed out, then he vented, forcing a genial smile. “Let’s not fight about this, D. I will go to the archives and, out of the goodness of my spark, I’ll even give you information that you could use to feed those dreams of yours.”

I guess I never really had a choice when it came to Pax’s schemes. So I just nodded along and let it go.

“Fine. Now, have you ever mined energon before?”

“No. You?”

“No. I hear it's dangerous.”

“I'll tell you what. You watch my back, I promise to watch yours.”

“Alright. Thanks... Pax.”

Pax had smiled, and I have to hope he genuinely meant it then, and raised his fist to bump against mine.

—

He hadn’t noticed that he was shaking until a servo clasped his shoulder. He looked up, his vision blurry as tears ran down his face plate. Still, he could distinguish that it was Starscream standing before him. Out of embarrassment, he tried to wipe his tears away with his arm, realizing only a little too late that he had used Sentinel’s torn arm instead of his own… He should probably work on replacing that soon. While Sentinel had turned out not to be entirely malicious, it didn’t feel right to be using the arm of a dead mech who lied.

“I’m fine.” He shrugged Starscream’s servo off, the gentle gesture a sting against his spark. Pax was the only one he ever let touch him so closely, and Pax had casted him out anyway. “Pax had always been like that. He had wanted to be more than just a miner. When Alpha Trion had given him a T-cog, it must have messed with his processor. Alpha Trion had seen a possible Prime in him and that affirmed everything Pax had ever wanted for himself. He wanted to be more. What could possibly be better than being considered a possible Prime?”

D let out a choked laugh, turning his optics to Starscream, and as he spoke he knew he sounded hysterical or even delusionally desperate. “But Pax wasn't only like that. He was good. He was kind. He had been there for me. Sure, he dragged me into his schemes but he cared for me. We were friends! We… are friends? I don’t know, but he came for me when Sentinel took me. He did. He apologized when he had accidentally chopped off my arm. The Pax I know… the Pax I love… is in there somewhere, I’m sure of it—”

“Maybe.” His ranting stopped as Starscream spoke. Even through the tears, he could see the pity in the mech’s eyes. “I know you want to believe there is goodness in your friend. But you forget, he betrayed you.” “He… He banished me. That’s different.”

Starscream vented, and Dee knew that this was a conversation they would have many times later. The mech tried to reach out for him again, but Dee recoiled. Starscream wasn’t Pax, and the pain of losing his friend was still raw. He refused to let anyone that close again, not until Pax either apologized or…

“Thank you for telling us what you know, we’ll ask you for more later on. For now… rest.” With that, the three High Guards left him, with Soundwave assuring him that if he needed someone to talk to, he could go to him.

So, he was left alone to spend his first night on the surface in a berth not yet his own.

As he fell into recharge, the last thoughts he had were of Pax.

They would meet again.

Dee would make sure of that.

He had to see…

He had to know…

He had to believe…

That his friend, that the mech he could have loved as even more than that, was still there…

That Orion Pax had existed.

That he wasn’t just pretending the whole time.

That Dee hadn’t only ever known a mask.

That Dee hadn’t only fooled himself.

That maybe Pax had cared - and maybe even loved him back too.

Omegasky's optics sparkle when Guillotine offered to join them, "Yes I love to." but she looked at Roller, "Love you like to join?" She ask to make sure he won't feel uncomfortable with all the people staring.

Her spark pulses more happily when she said that, ::any hug from you is the greatest love::

Story - Wout Jut Art - Philip Knott Colours, Letters - Sam Palmer

deviantART | Seibertron | TFW2005 | BotTalk

wada sez: Wout Jut explained on deviantART: “The story is about the captured Megatron by the evil Optimus Prime. Optimus needed him to find the Key of Vector Sigma, so he can open a special gate. This gate brings you to other dimensions. It's also a little tribute to Stargate SG1.” On Seibertron, he went into more detail to explain why Megatron and Galvatron are separate individuals here: “I'm a big fan of Shattered Glass. Read the comic drawn by The Don and read Reunification. Loved that story. But I was sad about how simple Megatron died and how he became Galvatron. Like Gen1 has many universes, this universe is just a variant of the S.G universe. Things are just a little bit different. Since the IDW Galvatron I've hoped to see that the explanation was that they where brothers. Never happened. So I've took a little freedom and made them in the SG universe brothers. Still, It could happen that I maybe write a story where Galvatron is killed and later on that Megatron will be Galvatron. But maybe that's to much. A idea I've got this morning.” Many readers were confused by the inset panel of Optimus Prime pressing a button, as the control panel has an unfortunate tangent with Galvatron’s back, making it seem as if an unseen figure is pressing a button on Galvatron’s back. Philip Knott independently colored his own artwork, sharing it online as an alternate version; see below for that. Jut later re-released the strip with his own lettering, changing the dialogue slightly in the process; you can find that below as well, along with a huge swathe of behind-the-scenes material.
