if you are able to do that you have more self-control than I have :P let me quickly check if it actually IS the issue I think it is
I keep looking at that Shockwave edit and like, reflexively recoiling back every time. Pls help. This is my purgatory.
so this conversation with @IvyLB happened earlier: [13:37:43] whimsy: ... [13:37:44] whimsy: i wonder [13:38:00] whimsy: if brainstorms mass displacement gun works on the same principle as shrinkadink [13:38:33] whimsy: or if the shrunk transformers were just washed at a too high temperature [13:38:48] IRL - IVES: they clearly shrunk in the wash [13:39:02] IRL - IVES: everyone knows you can only wash rodimii cold [13:39:13] IRL - IVES: and you have to handwash them and pet them very thoroughly [13:39:20] IRL - IVES: or else they'll become grumpy [13:39:22] IRL - IVES: :P [13:39:40] whimsy: honestly i rather suspect that the rodimii het the water with their presence [13:39:41] IRL - IVES: (Don't put your rodimii in the tumble drier) [13:39:44] whimsy: *HEAT [13:39:47] whimsy: theres nothing het about this [13:39:57] IRL - IVES: LOL [13:40:32] IRL - IVES: but yes this is why if you wash rodimii with other transformers you have to start with cold water or else everyone will shrink in the wash [13:40:48] IRL - IVES: also because the red gets all over everything [13:41:56] IRL - IVES: only ever wash all the blue bots together, except overlord who goes in the shame corner so he doesn't get all tangled up with fort max [13:42:23] whimsy: can you repurpose those bra washing bag thingies for that [13:42:23] IRL - IVES: -continues to make laundry jokes about transformers- [13:42:34] IRL - IVES: yes that is the shame bag for overlord [13:42:41] IRL - IVES: overlord goes in the bra thing

mood: Spoiler: mtmte 44 hi necrobot! -necrobot fanby- magnus, megs, your faces are very close to each other their whole interaction gives me life i love everyone on this ship and, rodimus? i know someone you might wanna exchange a few words with, and his name is dave strider. im smelling misdirection rewind and chromedome holding hands gives me life augh how are you two so adorable what are you plotting, megs also rodimus expressions are just. golden. (i look at his face whenever im not distracted by his waist or his tighs) minimus stop breaking my heart rewind, stop breaking my heart rodimus, stop looking so hot megs. megs. youre way too perceptive about rodimus habits for that to fall under plausible deniability rodimus. what makes you think he isn't out on an errand? getting groceries? doing his job and recording deaths and youre just-so during his working hours? (what makes you think you arent fated to go there and die?) and this beautiful and lush planet, why are there no other recognizable life signs? road trip road trip road trip road trip look even megs looks happy uhm uhm is this a fucking graveyard are those statues i feel like i should remember the name impactor, but i sure as hell remember windblades face and build knock first! and check if he left you a clue. ah. statues of people who are still alive. a memento mori, who is still on the list? also, rodimus, are you standing on someone elses gravemarker? thats disrespectful (but yes i agree on the assessment of choice ass) (and im ace) ah, that's what youre plotting, megs. you got a long road yet in front of you. oh gods you two NECROBOT IS THAT A FUCKING SPACE CLOAK YOU HAVE THERE ADSGHFJG NECROBOT CONFIRMED FOR SPACE PLAYER necrobot. are you telling me youre a bureaucrat with training in pathology. is that where your mythos has its roots in reality. i love everything about you necrobot, i shall offer you a hope for a future: rodimus combined with a matrix equals fertile feet. he still has a long way in front of him, but i believe he can lead your people towards a future. nightbeat, shoosh. not his fault people spun stories. stories mean a culture is alive -pedals back- censere, not that your cape isnt cool and all, but why do you have a cape -gets distracted by rodimus smoking hot body- -then gets distracted by nauticas smoking hot body in the background- ... swerve, are you getting a piggyback ride from tailgate? and taking a selfie? (see? this is what happens when i get distracted. i miss comedy gold like that in the background) so... nightbeat and censere are similar in character? but censere got a lifetime or three more of experience. no wonder he recognized fletchling nightbeat to be similar "you are all killers" theres a chill going down my spine and i love it because after 4 million years of war, there are no innocents, any more. heros of wartime are in peacetime murderers

Psst, guys, I'm on mobile right now and can't check myself, but is spotlight: trailcutter (trailbreaker?) posted online? And/or spotlight: hoist? Because I didn't read those in chronological order compared to the ongoing, I only read them a few days ago when my trade came in the mail. And Trailcutter already broke my heart, but fuuuuuck, now he REALLY breaks my heart. And I'm in love with Hoist. More engineers! Engineers everywhere!!! It's a silly thing to want representation for, but I do love my career, and it's... not really a glamorous one that you see many fictional characters as. (also trailcutter's spotlight makes issues 28/29 so, so much harsher looking at them now :C ) (also also, you get to see my handsome, spiky, bounty hunter husband! I love him so)
Neither of them are on veiwcomic! Which sucks, because I read the synopsis for Spotlight: Trailcutter and really wanted to find it.
I'll wait until I have natural light again, because it makes my shitty photos marginally less shitty, but I'll post both of those one shots tomorrow!
@IvyLB because you linked the song. to the refrain of Of Monsters and Men - Little Talks: Spoiler: spoilers for mtmte up to... 34-ish Don't listen to the words I say The screams are all the same Though the truth may vary This ship will carry our bodies safe to shore
