i have come up with a new, extremely self indulgent AU for tfrb:
basically what happens is each individual character in tfp accidentally finds out about the rescue bots, whether it's through a ground bridge mishap, an intel scouting mission, even a situation where they get rescued.
this starts out with mostly autobots, because i assume griffin rock is either in autobot territory or a neutral/unclaimed area (or it's off the grid and nobody knows about it) (i think the last one is the funniest), but the decepticons also learn about them eventually.
now. here's where the funny/self indulgent part begins. none of them know anyone else knows. the autobots AND decepticons all assume they're the only one who knows about these bots, and that the team has been trying to live a normal, calm life away from the war.
team prime doesn't know optimus and bumblebee already know, and the decepticons don't know that these guys have connections to the war. and of course, the rescue bots always manage to worm their way into every. single. bot's. spark. all of them individually grow to care about the rescue bots, and independently decide to keep them secret. nobody wants their new friends to get hurt!
anyways shenanigans of course ensue because it's very hard to keep a previously extinct group a secret from all of your friends, and since everybody knows but doesn't know everybody knows it becomes a lot of ridiculous sneaking around and badly lying to everyone.
the rescue bots are SUPER confused by all these bots who keep showing up, but they pretty much just assume that someone spilled their secret and everyone after are all showing up to meet them. eventually i think they would start to figure everything out, but they don't fully comprehend that everyone has been trying to hide them from each other until some big reveal happens.
the way this pans out is probably the end of the war honestly, because again; no one wants these guys to get hurt, physically or emotionally, and if that means having a ceasefire so be it.

On the train of your last ask, what are your thoughts on dragons sexuality?
Personally I think he’s Demi something (more attracted to personality than looks or gender)
Honestly because we don't know that much about the guy it's kind of hard for me to form an opinion, and if Crocodad Real then we're going to find out his orientation eventually (since we gotta find out if that was a contributing factor to the Dragodile Divorce (assuming they're divorced)) so I'm kind of okay with not forming any headcanons, since the headcanon could get thrown out the window
If anything, what interests me is how Dragon's orientation could impact the story-- like when I've discussed the Dragodile Divorce I have mainly focused on speculating how Crocodile would've felt about it, but how Dragon felt about that is interesting too
Because if he's straight then yeah that probably contributed to The Divorce, but how did Dragon feel about it? Learning that the love of his life is now happier than ever before after transitioning and being happy for him, while also losing the version of Crocodile that he fallen in love to begin with? No longer feeling thet draw to him because of the thing that has brought him so much joy and comfort? Knowing that even if they did take down the WG the family Dragon had hoped to have would never come to be, because their relationship would now end? And that it would be on some level his fault, because he's not attracted to Crocodile anymore?
Like even if Dragon took things well and the divorce happened "on good terms", it would've been sad for Dragon too.
But then there's a slightly juicier option, because what if Dragon was bi, but the Divorce happened under unpleasant circumstances (be it Dragon lashing out or things getting violent because he couldn't recognize Crocodile) and he didn't figure it out until it was too late?
Because you'd still have Dragon going through some if not all of those previously mentioned feelings, of having to come to terms with the version of his significant other whom he had fallen in love with no longer existed, the family had pictured in his mind would never become a thing, that those things were be kind of his fault and that he had hurt Crocodile deeply in the process.
But then he'd be looking at some news article of Crocodile's most recent heroic stunt, seeing his handsome face with that usual, unbothered expression, and realizing he still loved him? That he still wanted to be with him, wished they were together, even now that Crocodile was a far more handsome man than he was? And then the realization that he's bi hitting him like a fucking truck
But it's too late. The divorce already happened. He already hurt Crocodile too deeply. Knowing Croc, he had probably already moved on. There was no fixing it, the relationship was over. At least for now, trying to go see Croc could be dangerous due to the WG and not wanting to risk the WG finding out about them and The Kid and Croc would probably be furious if Dragon even risked that at this point, after what he had done.
Oh, and then Crocodile killed thousands of innocent people attempting to usurp a country by manufacturing a civil war. Something Dragon can't forgive. (Not to mention, hearing he had been taken down by their own son... Oof)
But what if despite all that, and not knowing the full circumstances behind what had happened (like the fact that Crocodile didn't know who the hell Luffy was), Dragon still loved Crocodile? What then?

I was so excited to take this history of black cinema course and learn about all the things the other film courses ignore or leave out regarding film history because it focuses on black people and their very significant impact on Hollywood and film in general, but so far all we've had is white speaker after white speaker talking about how smart and great they are for knowing that black people were involved in film too, talking about their podcasts and the books they're writing on the subject, and I'm wondering how is it that I'm paying so much money for schooling and these speakers and professors are the best they could afford.

Ooh! I’ve missed this! How about “Who knew my hubby’s bony backside was so sensitive?” For Hardenshipping? >:3 I’ve missed you! How have you been?? <3 -@Magma-Queen
Queenie! I've missed you so! *hugs all the hugs* AHH THIS IS GREAT! I love hardenshipping so much, and the sentence starter made me laugh alot! I hope you like it friend! I hope you're doing well! :)
In Archie’s defense, he had no idea Maxie would react this way.
“Who knew my husband’s bony backside was so sensitive?” Archie snickered, laughing hysterically at Maxie’s reaction to getting his bum squeezed. He knew he’d get a swat, maybe a hiss of “cut that out, you big oaf!”
All the things he expected, it certainly wasn’t a squeal!
“Archie, you son of a-stahahap!” Maxie twisted away, waving his spatula like a weapon. “Get off, I’m trying to cook! Do you want me to burn dinner?”
“I wouldn’t mind it- I have one heck of a snack before me.” Archie grinned, delighted at how flustered Maxie looked. When the redhead turned back to the pan, he reached out again-
“Archie.” Maxie was so fast! He had his wrist in an iron grin, the deadliest of glares on his face as he pulled the sailor closer. “One more time and I’ll make you regret it.”
Archie considered, looking from his trapped wrist to Maxie’s unyielding glare to the pan of sizzling stir fry.
Then he figured he already lived a pretty good life and pulled towards himself, bringing Maxie into his chest with a yelp. “Arch-ehehehehehehehhehe!” Maxie could barely respond before he was laughing, fingers worming into his ribs as strong arms trapped him. “Whahahhat abohohohout the fohohohoohohood?”
“Ay, don’t worry about that.” Archie kept tickling with one hand as he reached out with the other, pushing the pan off the heat and saving the day. “Now I can tickle you all I want! Hehehe~”
“Yoohohoohoohu’re nohohohohot gehehehhehehetting a sihihihiihngle bihiihihihte of diihihihiner, you jehehheheerk-AH! AHehahahahahha Ahahahhharchie!” Maxie all but squealed when those dastardly hands came back, squeezing the back of his hips and lower spine. “Dooohohoohhon’t!”
“No dinner for me, huh? Looks like I’m gonna have to fill up on your pretty laugh, Maxie! Hehehe~”
Archie ended up on the couch that night.
Send me a pairing a sentence starter and a pairing and I'll write a 300 word dabble for it!
