Can't wait to see the new season👀 In honor of it I drew some chibi-Maltobots in beach outfits

Okay so I have barely watched Earthspark due to ADHD but already have an au idea.

You know how in some continuities earth is implied or even stated to be Unicron??? What if… what if Unicron’s energy gave life to the Terrans??

He’s been asleep for thousands of years, awakening to find his body trapped and Primus’ creations having the nerve to live on the crust surrounding his body. This infuriates him, but all he can do is wait and bide his time… spreading his dark energon through the planet and waiting for the perfect moment… he has Scourge on speed dial, telling him to observe for the perfect moment…

But then, the most unexpected thing happens - his energon, diluted but still his dark energy, is combined with an artifact of Primus and creates the Terrans (I was spoiled on how the Terrans came to be somewhat, with some kind of Prime Artifact, but I’m not done the series yet so I don’t know much lol).

Now you might think Unicron wouldn’t care, or feel resentment to these two new dark sparks, but it’s quite the opposite. He had never created anything before, hadn’t felt the connection to another cybertronian being in millenia, and now he has two new creations. It’s not quite like a parental bond, but something almost unknowable to mortals - a feeling of connection and pride over them. He sees how they forge themselves, how they defy what they’re told, creating chaos in their own way, and he is nothing but delighted, especially as more come into existence with his own energy flowing through them and feeling more connections.

Meanwhile, the series mostly goes over as normal for awhile. The Terrans are completely unaware of Unicron or anything being weird with them, but there are some early signs

The Terrans energon in their lines is dark purple, the colour of dark energon. They can drink normal energon, as their systems basically just process it into dark energon, but this means their “blood” is a really weird colour when the other bots see it.

Anything related to Primus or the Primes (which channel his power) directly either has no effect or actively hurts them, whichever makes more sense in the series.

Their coding is actively evolving and isn’t set in stone, which follows the theme of chaos and evolution with Unicron, which is why they act a lot more like kids in the series. Normal Cybertronians usually grow up much quicker, their coding staying somewhat static when they emerge, since they are born almost fully cooked.

Eventually though, probably post series when there are more Terrans I have no idea about, Unicron wants to meet his creations. He could call Scourge, but he doesn’t trust him to handle it delicately, so he goes with a… different approach.

The Terrans start hearing a deep voice in their heads, calling them to somewhere. At first it’s ignored, then when they tell the others they try to see if someone is tampering with the Terrans, but eventually the call gets too strong to resist and they are basically going on a road trip against their will, their sparks being pulled by some invisible force that isn’t effecting the others.

Eventually, they are pulled into a cave system that eventually goes deep enough they enter Unicron, and it’s all revealed when Scourge emerges and fights the Cybertronian bots but then backs off when the Terrans go to help them defend themselves. Scourge is the one to bring them all to Unicron’s spark chamber, and then… Unicron has a little talk with them and fawns over his creations.

Optimus’ reaction? “Primus he’s just like Primus with his creations. How is the un-maker so… not evil?”

Yeah the twist, which has been obvious for awhile, is that Unicron isn’t evil here. He’s a representation of destruction and Chaos, but he’s been villainized by Primus’ creations since he had, what he calls, a “brotherly spat” with Primus. It’s turns out, Unicron’s job is to basically destroy things to make more room for Primus to create. However, due to some kind of interference or whatever they both ended up fighting then going dormant. They can’t exist without one another, which is why when Primus became a planet Unicron had to as well. Now, Unicron is very very happy to have his own creations and extensions of his will like Primus did - Unicron wanted creations of his own but his dark energon could only corrupt Cybertronians until now.

Everyone’s reactions from here require more knowledge about the series than I currently posses, so that’s all for now lol

The approximate year the Earthspark universe takes place is in 2014

Yes i did math for this. yes i regret this.

To explain, we know that this universe takes place 15 years after the war ends, right? We also know that they arrived on Earth on September 17, 1984.

This doesn't really add up, but during episode 9, Optimus mentions that he's been working with humans for 30 years when he tells Megs to get a "new grudge."

To make it easier, I'm going to assume that he started working with them as soon as the Autobots arrived, which means that this universe takes place around the year 2014.

Please Lord let Starscream have a redemption in Earthspark season 2

[bingus27]

I THOUGHT HIM WAS THE TRACKS 😫

[howdououfeel]

I only just learned about transformers earthspark and I'm like "oh this seems neat, let me look it up and see what it's about." Everything was peachy keen and I decided to look at the reviews... 8/10s across the board! Seems like it'll be a fun watch!

...wait what is going on imdb

Like I don't usually check imdb for ratings so maybe they are more critical of cartoons but compared to any other review of I've seen this I'd a wild bit of loathing I did not expect. Especially considering it's almost equal with the amount of 10/10s??? I assume it's review bombing but like huh??? What??? Why??? Granted I haven't watched it yet but this just seems wild.

Earthspark AU where during the Mother's Day episode they weren't fighting a toxic bear. No no no no. They battled the Cocaine Bear

[passionwheels]

Nightshade has what is essentially a bowl ontop of their head, why hasn’t anyone drawn it filled with popcorn or some shit.

[staijey-the-creator]

this is the best i could find of what i listen to lol

War of Hearts by Ruelle, Two Birds by Regina Spektor(this one im not so sure), Blood Pump by Jack Stauber's Micropop, mayyyyyyyyybe Fairytale by Alexander Rybak, Dynasty by MIIA and Vandalize(feat. CG5) by VGR

My mind's kinda blanking out on me right now so uhhhhh,, what do you guys think is a good song that embodies The Vibes™ of breakbee?

I think Ready To Run by One Direction, maybe Arcade by Duncan Laurence are good but the first one's for a specific AU and the second one hurts my heart too much

ES Dratchet sketch I did this morning. I'm glad we can all agree this the dynamic we need from them. Designs by @starstruckbailiffponyoperator

[discourteouscuttlefish]

Blorbos from my showsssss

I love a lot of megatrons but he might be my fave

Here he is alone

Without text lol

[klaudia96art]

Think you starscream you are best!!

[staijey-the-creator]

I actually translated it as well as soon as i recognized that the lettering was consistent(unlike the keyboard smaks at the memorial), but never really posted anything about it, so thank you for doing it for me lol

I don't know if it had already been deciphered but I'll comment anyway.

After watching chapter 7 over and over again. From different perspectives, I managed to translate what the message that Bumblebee found in the cave says.

"IN  TIMES  OF NEED

HELP SHALL  RISE

TO YOUR   CALL"

At first I thought it was just filler letters but as I figured it out it started to make sense. I had to look at it from different perspectives to see all the text clearly.

I hope it's okay, although what the text says makes sense.

I was looking at some transformers related stuff on Google and I went on this website that says some funfacts about some characters.

I found this.

[dezmolad]

the only two moods i can be in.

[hamlet-yam]

basing from the deleted animatic of soundwave in the cell but they both seem like sassy and sarcastic bots (first half of season 2 isn’t looking well) tried a method I saw to draw these guys full body plan to try out another if I get around to doodling more trans formers that are 3d models
