Thinking critically about the stories that move and shape us.
Nella. 25. Queer. Uses she/her/hers.
I write fanfiction and other stuff sometimes, I make jewelry and wings and other things, and I dabble in toy photography.
Feel free to send me messages or ask me things here.
Apparently, transformers in lingerie is a thing now. I wasted my night drawing Blurr, Knock Out ….
….and after that I drew this
I may not have reblogged a lot of the robots-in-lingerie-February stuff but HOW COULD I RESIST THIS?
| Mom: | Hey, who is Wheeljack? |
| Me: | Oh he's a Transformer! |
| Mom: | What's he like? |
| Me: | Well, it depends on which continuity you're talking about. |
| Mom: | Well, I didn't specify, so just tell me about all of them. |
| Me: | Oh, well G1 Wheeljack is that one I have the toy of. And he's a scientist. Though he's not exactly a biotech scientist like Perceptor. He's more into weapons and technology. But most of his stuff backfires and explodes. |
| Mom: | And what's the other one like? |
| Me: | Prime Wheeljack is completely different. Though he looks similar, instead of a smart guy, he's a tough guy. A Wrecker like Bulkhead. He uses brute force and fights on the frontline. He's got two samurai swords and for some reason he teases Ratchet a lot. |
| Mom: | Oh! Maybe he's just flirting with with her because he likes her! She all feminine and he's not, so they go together! |
| Me: | . . . |
| Me: | Ratchet. |
| Me: | The grumpy medic. |
| Mom: | Wait, what? |
| Me: | RATCHET IS MANLY AS HELL WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT. |
| Mom: | Oh, who's the name of the girly one? |
| Me: | ARCEE. |
| Mom: | Oh. |
| Mom: | Well, then Wheeljack flirts with Ratchet because medics are hot. |
Sudden Ratchet/Perceptor.
Perceptor, what in the world do you have to be looking so smug about?

“I ship Bay-verse Ratchet and Ironhide, I have no idea why. Except for the fact that thinking about Hide taking Ratchet fast and hard, makes my body tingle.”
I know exactly why I ship them, OP— because they act like an old married couple in the first movie. It’s that gruff-but-affectionate way they interact, specifically when all the Autobots are hanging around Sam’s house waiting for him to produce the glasses.
Granted, it’s not a lot to go on, but when does Bayverse ever give any of us much to go on, eh?

Because I drew porn of Rung, then felt bad. He’s a sweetheart, he deserves nice things. Ratchet fixed his ship, because Ratchet is a genuinely nice guy, and I could see him doing that.And really, Ratchet deserves more fanart of him being nice, and doing nice things.
Of course, a piano will have to fall on Rung soon, since I don’t think he’s allowed to be happy.

So I sat down this morning to write up a post about what I specifically didn’t like about the TFP S2 season premiere—from a storytelling angle specifically, not from the ‘weh weh they didn’t cater to my fangirl fantasies’ angle—and what I would have done differently had I written it instead.
I’m now 2,500 words into it and I only just finished getting through the first episode of the Orion Pax arc, whoops. Looks like this one’s going to be a monster, lads and ladies.
Anyway, here’s a sample from the introductory bit where I talk about what the last episode of S1 led me to expect in the beginning of S2:
A show’s writers break this contract with their audience any time they introduce a narrative thread that doesn’t get resolved. Now, I’m not saying that I expect every show I watch to be flawlessly plotted seasons (or even episodes) in advance. I understand that when you’re writing something week-to-week, producing the episodes in sequence, plots will be dropped. Details will be overlooked for forgotten—or maybe even deliberately left by the wayside for any of a myriad of reasons. I get that, I do.
What I do not get is why the creative crew behind TFP so blatantly broke with us the contract they set up during “One Shall Rise, Part 3”.
And what is it that I feel they promised us, and then failed to come through on? Orion Pax the long-lost comrade—Orion Pax as Decepticon ally, not as Decepticon thrall. The writers clearly established in “One Shall Rise, Part 3” that Orion and Megatron were once close. In Ratchet’s summary of the history between OP and Megatron, it’s made very clear that they had been friends and confidants, back at the end of the Golden Age on Cybertron. When Optimus Prime sacrifices the Matrix of Leadership and wakes up as Orion Pax, he names ‘Megatronus’, not Megatron, a clear indication that he’s reverted to a point before Megatron revealed the true violence of his intentions for Cybertron, was rebuffed by the council, and broke ties with his friend Orion.
In other words, this Orion Pax has no reason not to regard Megatron as anything but a trusted friend, and he does trust him. When Megatron tells him to retreat from Unicron’s spark chamber, he does, with hardly any hesitation.
So what I feel the end of the episode promised me, then, is an Orion who still feels like Megatron is his closest friend and trusted mentor, and a Megatron who knows better.
This is not what the writers delivered in “Orion Pax, Parts 1-3”.
What d’you think, Tumblr? You interesting in reading this when I finish it up?

So apparently Bob Budiansky (this is, I’m told, from a DVD with him, showing his notes) originally intended for Ratchet to be female in the ‘84 cartoon.
NEWS TO ME
Hot damn, now that is interesting. o.o
“Her rough language and manners belies the stereotypes associated with her sex and prefers getting skunked on tainted 40-weight to all other leisure-time activities.”
Gawd, part of me really wishes this had happened. DO WANT TO SEE!
This should have been a real thing.
