(admit it, in tailgates case you just dont want your husband to get caught up in this mess even more than he already is) . . . SOMEONE DIDN'T TAKE THEIR TRASH OUT AND IT GREW LEGS AND STARTED CALLING EVERYONE MOMMY repeating 'ten' ad infinitum like a broken record atomizer, this is a phenominally bad idea SWERVE also is that the robot version of that game with the colourful dots and the hilarious distortions you gotta do to place your hands and feet on certain colours? skids, you look like someone who has accepted that this is going to be his life from now on. tuesdaydog.gif ? okay, back when rodimus was still calling the shots (... pun intended) this wasnt such a sad state of affairs gimme rodimus back ::< starscream, shut up (also, you and prowl deserve each other) (would starscream believing he can steamroll prowl like he could steamroll bumblebee, prowl being pissy about it and needling back, the both of them working each other up in mutual irritation and disgust, and then starscream both of them realizing they horribly misjudged the situation be in-character?) starscream shut up magnus <3 applycoldwatertoburn.gif chromie, you need to talk to rung or someone else trained in psychiatry CHROMEDOME YOU FUCKING IDIOT LISTEN TO WHAT HES TRYING TO SAY AUGH I WANTED TO KNOOOOW what the fuck just happened what (that was my reaction to one panel) (you know which one) and of course we get a cliffhanger, because we have three billion things going on and then flashbacks on top of that. shockwave, your spacetime shenanigans are showing aftereffects and im not amused get used to it, nautica, everything here is done for the vine, and if you do something for the vine you gotta record it ah, nope, just a regular ol coffin ... dont open the coffin (jetz aber) too late, nautica, too late i love the little infographic i still think the crowns are ridiculous. theyve got dick imagery going on and thats from a species who doesnt even have dicks for all we know starscream, youre so well greased that people wont want to touch you because theyll need to wash their hands every damn time dial back on that, bruh Hochmut kommt vor dem Fall, Starscream, und je weiter oben du bist desto tiefer gehts runter (approximate translation: pride comes before the fall, starcream, and the higher your up, the bigger the drop) ... i wouldve gone for "robopomorphic personification of l-space" chromie, sometimes ghosts just want to tell their loved ones not to worry and to fucking move on with their lives and not lose themselves to grief ... am i seeing that right that part of the ship is missing "i just engaged your fim chip. permanently." "with your hand?!" "4 million years of practice" adsdsgdhfjg megs ilu also, you cruel motherfucker, and i still love you say what you want, megs is a practical sort of person is that IS THAT WHO I THINK THIS IS IN THIS COFFIN (rodimus bby is that you and if yes what happened to you) (oh primus i just re-checked some earlier issues and yes this looks like rodimus) rodimus you idiot you really shouldnt have looked at that list
Completely off-topic but I kinda wanna make a bot named Time Out that just turns into a square cage/containment unit.
One of those guys were clearly listed as Chair Fuck on the official roster. Unless there are other bots that turn into chairs.. ....I actually know nothing.
mood: distressed noises Spoiler: mtmte 30 i spy the rod pod. did they repair it? or did they rebuild it SWERVE I WAS SO CONFUSED AND UPSET WHEN I SAW RODIMUS IN THE COFFIN THIS MORNING WHEN I SAW @IvyLB AT UNI I TOLD THEM I READ MTMTE 29 LAST NIGHT AND THEY ASKED WHICH ONE THAT WAS AND I REPLIED "THE ONE WHERE THEY FIND RODIMUS IN A COFFIN AT THE END, WHAT THE FUCK" AND IVY LAUGHED AT ME <> my current working theory is that shockwaves spacetime fuckery lead to a pan-timeline collapse and thats also the reason theres a ghost of rewind running around no but seriously you cant just unceremoniously kill off our beloved appointed captain OFFSCREEN and have the party find his corpse wasnt rodimus on his way to meet thunderclash? wtf happened there? also i am like sure that thunderclash did the heroes funeral thingie for rodimus, because hes magnaninous like that i need a drink. epic smackdown incoming, courtesy of ultra magnus' and megatrons combined brains ... oh you idiots this smells like a political mess. i am so glad im safe behind the fourth wall DO I SPOT AN OCTOPUS TRANSFORMER IN THE BACKGROUND oh whirl <3 also your holomatter avatar looks adorable precious, precious murderchild bluestreak, you missed a lot of human culture there, but at least you ran across comic books. thats gotta count for something. pssst no one show them fanfiction and i would like to submit the entirety of studio ghibli's filmography for pick. megs, i gotta say, that was a stroke of genius. you magnificent bastard. ::3 rattrap, i like you. you keep your ducks in order and dont drown in the details. rodimus, there you are but, same, rodimus, same megs, rodimus hasnt failed, he was just sidetracked. hell, thunderclash has been at this longer and he hasnt succeeded yet either, so its not really fair to expect more from rodimus in a shorter timeframe ops face rn: -_-" *citation needed adsdsfdghfjghk someone stop rodimus from doing something stupid again, please -hisses at getaway- -HISSES LOUDLY- gotta say i love rodimus faces. hes so beautifully expressive (ratchet as well) (hell, even chromedome) nautica ilu <3333
mood: Spoiler: mtmte 31 ratchet, who signed your leg dsasdgihdfgjghdkhglj drift pls oh my gods chirolinguistics is so. awesome. so drift started this thing? yeah, i remember rodimus mentioning he got it from drift ooh, is that why it was "abandoned", because it tends to disappear and reappear at times? also im having drift feels now, they should pick him back up and ask for his forgiveness (mostly i also want drift/rodimus interaction and reconciliation and i want drift to be back on the crew and happy and i want drift and ratchet to snark at each other again) nautica words cannot describe how much i love you nightbeat, you sassy motherfucker <3 so, someone divided by zero? gps. really. same, cyclonus, same tailgate, stop being stupid. your current level of brain is harry potter books 1 and 2. no, its not snape who is after the philosopher's stone, and draco malfoy is not the heir of slytherin. primus. shut uuuuuup getaway tailgate, listen to cyclonus i'd say "listen to you heart" but honestly atm you lack the experience to not do something incredibly stupid. you gotta be at peace with yourself first. ... wasnt chromedome constructed cold? hard light. so with the cybertronians a unisex species with (predominantly) male pronouns utilizing hard light projections, and the gems being a unisex species with female pronouns, both anorganic lifeforms... i want a crossover of that welp
mtmte spoilers up to, uhm, issue 20? 21? Spoiler: ultra magnus you know how in the annual, the galactic council voiced their admiration because ultra magnus has been a pillar of the law for four million years, incorruptible? and then we learn, that's so no what happened, because there were multiple iterations of magnus and it also puts a twist on magnus' smile. its no longer a "times changing, bruh", but a "if only you knew" like, fuuuuuuck
Well to be fair Spoiler That means there were multiple pillars of law! They just... died. As one does in wartime.
The fact that Ultra Magnus specifically requested that his avatar look like Verity still gets me like /clenches fist/ fUCK that's adorable. That's so fucking cute - fuck /falls over in a gasping heap/
I want a dramatic reunion between these two so badly I can't breathe I'm torn, though. Because I don't want her in MTMTE. And I don't want him gone from MTMTE. Maybe a video call or something? But oh come onnnnn, she ditched him in a pretty dickish way, after he only tried to do the best he could by her, and he loves her so much, and she loves him too, and I just. I NEED. (also if Megatron walked in on that video call, he might totally remember that hey, youuuuu were the tiny, squishy organic who showed up in my underground lair right before Starscream tried to have me killed. not many humans have encountered Megatron directly and survived!) eta: Spoiler: up through mtmte 21 Also similar runaway-ish themes between the two of them, that could be aired openly now. She's a runaway. And he ditched his own identity real, real hard when he put on the Magnus armor, and he's only tentatively starting to allow himself to reconnect with Minimus Ambus now. I. NEED. THEM. TOGETHER.
Verity, sometime from now: "This whole time, Magnus. This whole time, you could have been short! And you never told me?!?!" Ultra Magnus: "I also use your image as an holo avatar that can be scaled up to the size of a small building." Verity: "...You've been holding out on me, dammit." (Also it causes me Great Pain that the Verity avatar is probably going to outlive the actual Verity. That's all Ultra Magnus is gonna have left of her, unless we Stick Her Brain In A Robot Body)
On the other hand, imagine Prowl laughing at wrinkly old man Spike Witwicky, all haha, you're gonna DIE That actually warms my heart a little. Oh hey, Spike, welcome to Cybertronian prison. Wait time until your trial is about forty years. That's not going to be a PROBLEM, is it?
XD This is what Prowl needs on his beach vacation: to meditate on the fact that Spike is gonna be a shriveled old prune and Prowl's gonna be able to attend his funeral and laugh about it for centuries. Should be very therapeutic and help him attain inner peace ♥ According to Spike, on the other hand, the passage of time is clearly problematic (see multiple call out posts in tumblr.txt/CDCF). His next mission is gonna be to collapse time and space into a singularity in order to prevent Cybertronians from outliving him - OH WAIT
Frick I struck out at another Target on the transformers toys :( I wonder if they're only stocked regionally or something. My stores have RiD blind bags, buuuut I'm not sure I care about enough about enough of those characters to start sinking money into blind bags. But! I comforted myself with another purchase. It's my handsome dinosaur husband <3333 His mouth even moves, how precious is that??? But also, has anyone been able to find even a mention of those silly blind bags online? Because I've struck out all over the place, and this is getting really frustrating. I just want to throw my money at them and acquire a Wheeljack or three and maybe a Shockwave asasdasdffssfs
