Making the prelude lore for Firsts to Grow Up AU. Main points so far, might have changes later:

How Megatron got captured by the Autobots.

Starscream takes forceful control despite diplomatic votes to have Soundwave as de facto leader.

Infighting within the Decepticons.

Thundercracker & Skywarp notice Starscream's worsening sanity and tried to help him. He hurts them the same way Megatron hurt him instead.

Shockwave proposes the cyberformat plan to Starscream.

Megatron slowly has a change of spark thanks to yet-to-be-named young Autobots.

Ark and Nemesis are elsewhere in space - Cybertronians enter Earth via Spacebridge built by their scouts years prior.

Earth is supposedly just a pit stop to gather its energon, humans aren't aware they're on Earth except for governments.

Until Starscream forced Autobots to reveal themselves by attacking a city, starting the plan to cyberformat Earth.

Soundwave's Decepticons try to keep the war minimal by trying to kidnap Megatron back but are sabotaged by those siding with Starscream.

Megatron chose to play the neutral medic to spare the captured Decepticons from execution.

Energon poisoning crisis spreading worldwide.

Starscream caused the many unneeded deaths of civilians and Decepticons, citing him, TC & Skywarp into an argument that ends with Skywarp getting a bad hidden injury by Starscream.

Dorothy & Alex's life in military.

Skywarp ignores how his injury is making his thinking go haywire. TC tries to stop him but he went to attack civilians. Human military shoots him down. Dot prevents execution and lets TC hear Skywarp's last words.

Grieving TC secretly informs Soundwave every one of Starscream and Shockwave's plans and the two and their allies begrudgingly work with the Autobots to stop their war on Earth.

Megatron chose to defect, to Soundwave's utmost betrayal.

I hope the Terrans make some form of return in future series. Like, if not even the characters, at least the concept of them returns, of Transformers brought to life on Earth

Okay I mean technically that concept’s been here since g1 with the Dinobots, and also bots brought to like by the AllSpark in Animated. But I mean specifically like the Terrans in how they are Transformers, but they also have biology unique to them compared to the Cybertronians, and are Transformers as legitimately as them, just not born from Cybertron. If that makes sense. They’re Transformers but a different sub-species, like how they are in the show

I don’t know, I think they’re a really fun concept that could be explored more in future media, like how other groups like the Predacons or I guess the Quintessons reappear in other series. I mean I guess you need an explanation as to how they came to exist, but you can come up with something

Some blushy faces with the TFP Decepticons! (u v u)

[toukendanshiwarrior]

I’ll always be obsessed with the fact that Predaking would’ve 100% killed Megatron here if Starscream didn’t intervene using one of his missiles.

Starscream saved his life. He literally saved Megatron (the person who physically abused him and psychologically broke him), even when he had nothing to truly gain from it.

Sure, you could make the argument that Starscream just didn’t want Predaking to turn on him after he killed Megatron.

But the thing is…

This is a genuine look of concern. And he never showed any signs of betrayal or any ambition to usurp him in Season Three. Plus, he was genuinely distraught when Megatron was stabbed by Bumblebee during the show’s finale.

And how does Megatron repay him for rescuing him? He doesn’t. He just shoves him to the side, even when Starscream moved out of his way beforehand.

If you look closely, you can even see the slight expression of fear on his face.

It’s such a subtle detail, but literally says so much.

My piece for the @tf-bigbang this year !♥!♥

I had the opportunity this year to make some cool art for the bigbang while my partner made a fantastic fic to go along with it. Please go check it out

-Wide Wings, Vast Sorrows- By @thunderwetter Ratchet was not a hunter; Ratchet was a medic. He did not see prey; He saw patients

Heading further away in bot mode, he chose a quieter place to sit and shut his eyes, though he could still hear the banging of construction.

Completed commission for @emperor-kumquat for his game Mercy.

This was definitely a challenge. I’d never drawn tfp characters before and I think he’s the most complicated one 😂 I loved working on this though

Elita should've swaddled the baby OP so he wouldn't escape the crib

Swaddle so comfy he fell asleep so easily it feels like a witchcraft

Two people thought of this, and it would be a great solution! except… Optimus didn’t seem to like being trapped

DOGE just froze funding to vital Federal and Indigenous conservation programs devoted to supporting the very delicate and tenuous existence of the black-footed ferret.

I fell in love with these animals as a kid traveling to our National Parks. Their rarity and ferocity made me sharply aware, even as a child, of just how much of a responsibility we have toward our environment. I can't bear the thought of them being a fucking casualty of Trump and Musk.

Look at them! They do war dances.

I know Elita-1 has resentment towards humans and Optimus (least in the beginning of Skybound. I’m still reading). But god what I’d do to be sandwiched between both Elita-1 and Optimus. I know it’s probably unlikely but can a girl dream.

Big same.

I feel like Elita would be rougher than Optimus even if she develops a soft spot for the human. Don't worry tho, Optimus is there to make sure no one gets injured (aka you)

In case anyone finds it helpful because mobility aids are horrifically expensive and inaccessible…

And for those people who have access to mobility devices but might benefit from a second chair they can abuse without risking expensive damage…

Erik Kondo has made a website, Open Source Innovations, that details plans for DIY wheelchairs. These wheelchairs can be made from common materials like wood, plastic, and pvc. They are lightweight and can be custom fit to the user allowing from the same degree of movement you would get from a custom chair. And they are durable and easily repairable. (he has been stress testing his latest design by dropping it down stairs, dropping it out of a car, launching it across a driveway, and throwing it off a deck). Its 12lbs and I think he said its was in the $200 ish range for parts.

He also is working on cheap, open source, accessible designs for beach chairs, off road chairs, motorized attachments (think smart drive), and so on. Plus he skateboards in his wheelchair. Cool dude, helpful info, pass it on.
