what started as a silly idea evolved so hard it became THIS

[empyreansentinel]

balex can hug exactly one (1) person in the universe but she chooses to roughhouse with him instead.

[justablah56]

thinking about Austin explaining DX-TR's reasoning for wanting to be left in wild space. that his justification was that he had already done so many things to get to that point, that all he wanted to do was just keep going. explore the universe just like MR-SN wanted. that he couldn't stop for second because if he had a moment to think about everything he'd done, it would crush him. im exploding him with my mind. he makes me crazy.

[ninjakitty6252]

Pixal Borg, my first fictional crush, my gay awakening, one of my comfort characters alongside Mangle, Eevee, and Mettaton, Pixal my beloved you are returning to me!!!!

[intertexts]

okay cracks knuckles.

is this a safe space to say ive been loosely trying to come up with contrived scenarios for virion to be able to control ashe again puppet-style (consensually) post-muse for like. ages.

liiiiiiike its about how virion is the single person ashe trusts most post-muse….

something something the queerplatonic nature of being two halves of a whole / the heart and mind and being visceral enemies yet having to trust each other because there's someone stronger than both of you and more willing to hurt both of you than you are each other (that you still love despite everything)

it's about virion constantly being afraid he'll turn out like his father.

this is a reach but like. i headcanon that whenever they realize they or the other has a mannerism similar to soul, or says something like how he'd say it, they just freeze. and they don't know why they do it really. it's illogical for one and not something to be sad about for the other. but they can't stop themself and they don't know why or what to say about it. just that they can't deal with it.

it's about virion being terrified of hurting him

uhhh something something all of them are almost constantly aware of how easily they could hurt each other and despite everything a lot of the time they just don't want to. and they wouldn't admit how little they do want to but they don't. and yet they're still aware and heart's still aware that he shot mind and or thinks about it every day .... and i don't know if either of them would label it as Afraid but it's definitely something similar because both of them - all of them - are Weapons, in a way, met with something more innocent / unknowing than they are (despite the fact that they know the other knows, and they won't forget)

& wanting to hold him so tightly & not let anything else come close & feeling immensely guilty over that impulse at the same time.

sooo true bestie like.... the urge to hold your deepest enemy close and think about stabbing them in the stomach the whole time and the way they would convulse in your hold

it's about how trying to be a person again is awful and clumsy and painful for ashe who was never good at it in the first place let alone after being muse & getting to stop and take a break and drop all of it & let virion hold it all for a little is the most relief he's felt this whole time.

i could ramble about personhood for all of them and already havee but likee. guy who wants to be a person more than anything but feels like that's stolen from him every single day x guy who wants to be a robot/tool more than anything but can't escape his humanhood (but acts really hard like he can). and i don't think heart (former) would ever stop trying because that's equivalent to death/giving everyone else exactly what they want to him..... and he doesn't Want to relax in the hold of somebody who keeps trying to make him a shell of himself. but like he might need to

also "it's about how trying to be a person again is awful and clumsy and painful for ashe who was never good at it in the first place let alone after being muse" is SOOOOOO apostate but that's my au guy of these guys you don't know so uhm. we're not getting to him.

it's abt virion being really really really really normal etc.

the homoeroticism of any sort of vulnerability from the guy you keep thinking about killing. the Weirdness about it. you don't deserve this and yet he's Here right in your hands and you could stab him and it would only take a moment and you've done so much to each other and yet he's Here, in your arms, and the sheer potential of it makes you feel sick and you don't know if that's a good thing and maybe you should kill him, but you don't, and you won't ^_^

[ninjakitty6252]

I agree with this (except the arms) but as a long time Pixal fan (and Simp) i’d like to add to this.

Her face is the main thing that bothers me. Why did they change the Purple circuit designs?! They were fine before they just look crowded now as they are all in one place on her cheeks instead of spread out.

Her armor is fine i like the white and lavender but the red does NOT match the rest of it! I say make the red either Purple, light blue, or silver! Then it would look so much better!

As for the face i can see how creepy she can be for some but i am willing to let it slide.

And finally i wish she had the old shoulder pads but maybe her hair would not fit with the piece.

Our queen.....

What did they do to her 😭😭😭

Tbh her suit looks good, now that I think abt it. I was overreacting, but the silver arms don't look good, so can they please fix that. Maybe make them white???? And can we get her face to be the same as it used to be. Why did they make it wider and why did they make the smile so creepy 😔

Hello, Forgive me for spamming your blog. I saw your pfp was tfp megatron and then realized your blog was as high quality as the pfp. 👌

My ask is whats your fave transformer and from what universe?

Ah, no worries! I'm glad to hear my blog is filled with scrumptious content! About who is my favourite tansformer. Well, it would be easier to answer who isn't my favourite ifbvkdjfv

I'm a TFP girlie through and through. Prime has been my comfort show since like 2011 and I continue to rewatch it year after year even now. I have indulged in other Transformers media, too, most notably the Bay movies, War for Cybertron, Robots in Disguise and the OG series, tho nothing would come even close to my love for TFP. I truly do think this is the best Transformers incarnation in franchise ever created.

About the fav character (aside from the obvious picks like Optimus and Megatron), this is mega hard for me because all of them are so good dfhvbihvfb. I think I could narrow it down to a few, neither is placed higher or lower than the other because I love them all for different reasons.

Ratchet. Absolutely love this grumpy old fart. He's what started my love for the "grumpy character who pretends they don't care but actually care A LOT" character archetype. He's everything I love and nothing I don't, plus I do think that Jeffrey Combs was made to be his VA in a similar way Robert Downey jr. was born to play Iron Man

Starscream. I will be honest, it actually took me some time before I started to like his character instead of just seeing him as an annoying bootlicker. I mean, he's still an annoying bootlicker, but I came to enjoy him! OG Starscream walked so TFP Starscream could run. He's all of his old traits but amplified and made better. His scheeming, cunning nature, inability to shut up to the point the show itself calls him out for it (Operation Bumblebee) but at the same time, he's a pathetic coward. A wet cat of a man, soggy af. I do think if the show came out in recent years that tumblr would have a field day with him. 10/10 I miss Starscreams like him

Smokescreen. This may or may not be a hot take because he's apparently pretty unpopular with the fandom?? At least he was in like 2012-2015 when I was most active in the fandom. I actually really do enjoy his recklessness and immaturity, it makes him feel more like a youngster that's yet to see the horrors of war. I love how quickly he grows throughout the episodes when he comes to realise their fight isn't about personal glory, it's about survival and about doing what is right. 9/10 because I hate the updated painjob he got in season 3

Miko. Also kind of a hot take, since she seems to be the least favourite among the kid trio. I gotta be honest, TFP is the only Transformers incarnation where I actually like the human companions, and Miko I love the most. She's reckless and bold and immature, like any "punk" teenager of her age would be, and I also absolutely adore the bond she has with Bulkhead.

KnockOut. My first ever experience with a character that was so violently queer-coded it rearanged by neural pathways. Loved him since his very first scene. The sass, the execution, his mad doctor persona, obsession with looks, surprisingly scheeming nature, he's just so full of personality. I also love how he's actually canonically married to BreakDown. My only gripe with the character is that I wished he was depicted to mourn BreakDown more instead of, like, just mentioning he's annoyed that he now has nobody to buff him. But also this was a pre-Steven Universe show back when queer characters weren't as prominent in kids media, so I get why it wasn't implimented. I'm still salty about it though

Arcee. Arcee I had to grow to love, and it didn't happen until several years after the show has ended. At the start, I found her to be a deeply unenjoyable character, grumpy and cold and dismissive towards everyone (and especially Jack) and not in the fun way Ratchet was. However, as I aged, I came to realise that she's not just being an asshole, she's grieving. This is one of the key reasons why I love TFP. It tackles serious topics like death and grief very well for an animated kids show that was mostly made to promote a toy brand, and Arcee's character really shines here. I deeply enjoy seeing her come out of her shell after Cliffjumper's death and slowly form a deep loving bond not only with Jack, but with everyone else too. Also how she helps Miko out with her own grief after Bulkhead gets seriously injured. You know what that is? Growth. Nothing but growth and healing for my sassy two-wheeler.

"Funny. At first I never thought I'd get used to Cliff's constant chatter. But now? Now there's nothing louder to me than the silence."

Bro, this sentence is burned into my memory. Forever. It altered my brain chemisty, I swear. Arcee and her grief over Cliff and Tailgate are so well portrayed and it makes one of the best written characters on the show and I will die on this hill!!

Gambling Apocalypse Tenma AU

As I rewatch Kaiji I inevitably end up wanting to combine show I like with other show I like and stuffing fav characters into show. So here we are.

This was uh going to be a short summary type thing but I accidentally wrote a novella about it sorry

This AU starts off with a much more depressive Tenma. After Tobio's death, rather than immediately pour his grief into developing a robot version of his son, he recedes into himself, psychologically paralyzed, likely turning to alcohol to drown out his anguish.

His mental state is taken as an opportunity within the Ministry of Science to have him ejected from his position; Tenma was never the most well-liked director, and there were those with ambition to usurp him that would jump at the chance. Not that he especially cares in his state.

He's eventually dragged out of his stagnation by Ochanomizu - who, inadvertently, becomes the very catalyst pushing Tenma to develop a robot replacement to his child. This was not what he meant by encouraging Tenma to fill the void left by his son.

...But, well, he is no longer the director of the Ministry of Science. His access to limitless government funds and resources for "scientific research" has been cut off, and this is a project he cannot finance on his own. He can't ask Ochanomizu for help, but...interestingly...a representative of a certain shady organization known as the Teiai Corporation reaches out to him, offering to finance and support his project. A sane and well-minded Tenma might think better of it, but grieving and desperate, Tenma accepts their offer and is able to create a robot in the image of his beloved Tobio. For a while, there's joy in his life.

But the bill, as ever, comes due: Tenma must pay up, and the very resources that had been at his disposal will certainly ensure that he will, or else. Of course, he doesn't have the money; instead, he is given a choice. He can relinquish the robot Tobio in order to wipe out his debt - the child is a sophisticated and powerful robot, after all - or he can participate in a certain illicit event hosted by the Teiai Corporation.

It's nothing major...just a four-hour gambling cruise with a collection of desperate, damned souls that were also swept into debt with Teiai. The conditions are simple: Those who choose to participate are given a chance to clear their debts wholesale should they win. And should they lose...?

Well...no one really knows what happens to the losers seized by Teiai. It's said that they labour away their debts under Teiai's watchful eye and are freed once their work has covered their debts, though it's rumoured that most perish before they reclaim freedom.

There's only one answer Tenma can give, of course; he's not willing to lose Tobio again.

Thus is Tenma's debut into the Gambling Apocalypse, where he must become cutthroat in order to survive; if he wants to see his son again, he must make choices that will doom the hapless to miserable servitude, with a nonzero chance it ends in their death.

He survives the cruise, but of course, it was hardly enough to clear his debt; the cruise was never going to be the end of it. Teiai doesn't let go of its victims that easily. He will be called on again: this is a weight that hangs over him, all while he returns to his son Tobio. The same hands that have pushed innocents into hell must now be the hands that can embrace his child.

He wants to protect Tobio from the truth and enjoy what peaceful moments he's allowed with his son, but it's difficult. It's difficult to be the parent of a child who cannot understand the danger that looms ahead; this "happy" home is not to last. Tenma angers quickly and easily. He turns that anger onto Tobio.

As Teiai's games become more and more vicious and unrelenting, as his conscience holds onto the last vestiges of thread that remain, Tenma even threatens, once, to give the boy in: it would all end, then; the debt would be clear and no longer would he have to endure Tobio's childish annoyances, his ungratefulness.

The next time that Tenma is beckoned, Tobio takes matters into his own hands. He does understand, now; and he would have, if only Tenma had bothered to explain sooner. If it's a debt that needs clearing, he will work. He will help his father clear his debts however he can. Of course, it's difficult to find work as a child; but a circus troupe finds amusement in the idea of a child robot, and takes him in. He is whisked into a certainly unpleasant working situation, but he remembers his father, and what he must be enduring. Tobio, also, will endure.

When Tenma returns, Tobio is gone.

All that held Tenma back from becoming something monstrous has disappeared. All that kept him going has disappeared. When he is called upon by Teiai, there is no knowing what sort of person might come out the other end; whether a monster clawing his way to freedom regardless of what actions he must take, or a desolate husk surrendering defeat.

There is still a light, however dim: Found by Professor Ochanomizu and rescued from the circus, Tobio - now Atom - is able to shed light on the situation which Tenma took great pains to keep hidden from his old friend. With time running out, Ochanomizu and Atom must do what they can to save Tenma - from Teiai, and from himself.

-----

UHHH and that's a wrap!!!! I couldn't quite decide which way Tenma would go after hitting Rock Bottom in this AU, and tbh it would really depend on the kind of mental state he's in at the time. On the one hand I like the narrative of Ochanomizu and Tobio racing to prevent Tenma from crossing a line (actual outright murder probably) - or having to pull him back into humanity (and yknow, his ensuing penance)

But on the other hand having him get sent to Teiai Evil Hell Prison would be interesting because a) there's a lot of narrative potential having Tenma faced with what Teiai is doing with the people that lose the games and b) need him to decimate the foreman at chinchirorin Kaiji style

Tenma's whole character is definitely a much different guy in this AU, he starts off pretty sympathetic, the guy you wanna root for, he just ends up having an inverse character arc where he gets worse instead of better. His conflict with "Tobio" is also kind of reversed, less about being unsatisfied with Tobio as a son and more not being able to handle the fact that he probably has intense PTSD now and isnt capable of coping with it in a way conducive to being a parent (or like, coping at all)

Anyway that's gambling apocalypse tenma!!!
