Hotshot, confused as to why Heatwave is worryingly pacing back and forth: "Sir?.." Heatwave: "hey Hotshot have you seen my wife?" Hotshot, even more confused: "Your- your wife??? Do you mean your conjunx or?.. you never told me you had a wife." Heatwave: "Ok yeah I never said she was my wife, but i've been worrying for her she said she would be following Boulder as she's the second art teacher but she isn't there." Hotshot: "Did you comm her?" Heatwave: "... I'm a slagging idiot I should've did that. Sorry for wasting your time it's just it's the first time she's here and i'm worried she'll get lost." (Heatwave comms Snailtrail.) Snailtrail, in the academy garden, munching on a flowering shrub: "Hm? Oh what is it sweetheart?" Heatwave, to Hotshot: "Oh primus she's found the academy garden.."
this is so funny what
hotshot just being like “…sorry ur WHAT” and heatwave is like “oh shit did i not mention that? my bad” and hotshot is like “yeah i think i would have remembered ur wife”
snailtrail getting into the garden… oh dear. boulder has a LOT of re-planting to do!! at least its a pretty good lesson on overexploitation of resources…
heatwave once again being dense and forgetting that he can call other people is,, pretty accurate

oc halloween challenge 2023 ⇝ day two
Lights, Camera, Action! ft. modern celebrity!Raon
Jin Raon, or by her stage name Eyre Jin, is most known for her role as Alyssa Lee in the horror romcom Thirteen Times's the Charm, and her most recent work alongside former Disney kid Steve Harrington and Corroded Coffin's Eddie Munson. Eyre has also graced many magazines for her partnership with Adidas, and more recently, her possible flirtationship with her two co-stars of the classic romcom Niceties.
bonus:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Niceties is a clever take on the classic love triangle trope -- with the book-loving protagonist Felicity Park (Eyre Jin) falling for the equally studious Asher (Steve Harrington) and the gruff biker Zane (Eddie Munson), Niceties doesn't force Felicity to choose between the two equally attractive men but instead allows the love triangle to form a real triangle, by having all three of them enter a polyamorous relationship. Critics of the film may claim the ending to be unrealistic, but perhaps the actors of Niceties might be able to prove that poly relationships can have a happy ending, even in real life.

My Slightly Cringey Transformers OC
Well, well, well. Look who decided to finally give in to their inner "cringe" and make a canon-non-compliant Transformers Prime OC.
Me.
It's me.
I'm the one who decided to make a dumb OC.
Now, let me start off by saying that I have only watched Rescue Bots and about half of Transformers Prime (I'm partway through Season 2). I don't remember much about the lore, and in this instance, I don't exactly care. This OC likely breaks some lore in relation to Cybertronian history and society, and I'm not really gonna do anything about it. It's also one of those OCs that I just kinda inserted into the team and pretend that she's always been there this whole time.
I did this purely for self-indulgent reasons, because I wanted to make a big cool robot who is morally grey and will help people with their redemption arcs. Please be understanding of that fact. I'm working on just allowing myself to create "dumb" and "cringy" OCs and stories, because this is all just for fun, and why should I limit myself?
So, with that out of the way, please enjoy.
Tireslash is a relatively liked member of the Autobots, but she has a few dark secrets that she constantly worries will get her kicked out of the group. Long before the war, Tireslash was a member of the infamous criminal group known as the Ground Shakers. They were essentially like a bank robbing gang, but instead of stealing money, they stole energon and resold it on the streets. It was a very organized criminal enterprise, with carefully planned operations, separated teams of thieves, and a network of distributors. And Tireslash wasn’t just a random grunt, oh no. She was someone working on the field, actively participating in robberies and some of the more violent stuff. She led her own team and personally knew the head of the Ground Shakers (though they weren’t super close or anything).
However, eventually the organization fell apart, and most of its members were arrested, including Tireslash, whose teammates were killed during a raid, the same one in which she was eventually caught (though it is later revealed that her second in command, Firewall, actually survived and went into hiding). Tireslash was sent to prison, where she reflected on her life and began to regret her crimes. 
She remained there for a long while, until one day, the war broke out. At a later point in the war, the war came to the area which her prison was in, and the prison wasn’t safe from the blasts as the battle raged on around it. The wall next to Tireslash’s cell ended up being destroyed by a stray blaster shot, and she and many other prisoners ended up escaping in the ensuing chaos. Somehow, Tireslash managed to find a small ship, and she stole it, escaping to another area across the planet. Due to this being later in the war, a lot of stuff had been destroyed, and many computers and systems with Tireslash’s criminal records in it were deleted.
Due to this (and being a more obscure criminal whose crimes occurred long ago), Tireslash was able to join the Autobots with few suspicions against her. She liked Optimus’ vibes and beliefs, and had heard about some of the more atrocious behavior of the Decepticons, something she no longer wished to be associated with.
I might make it so that Optimus has his suspicions about her past, and may have even found out about Tireslash’s crimes long ago, but after getting to know her, he was able to tell that she likely regretted her past, and had developed a good heart. He believes in second chances for many bots, and seeing how willingly Tireslash took that chance to do genuine good, Optimus decided to never mention his insight into her past. None of the other Autobots know Tireslash’s secret, and it is only at a slightly later point in the series that her past is revealed, about partway through.
This happens in an episode in which Bumblebee and Tireslash are patrolling an old ship that was a prisoner-transport-ship-turned-energon-transport-ship. Some of the old files were saved in the ship’s computer, and Bumblebee choses to go through a few of them while Tireslash continues to patrol the ship. Bumblebee accidentally ends up stumbling across Tireslash’s old prisoner files, which outline some of her past crimes and history. He is both shocked and unsure what to do with this information, and when Tireslash comes back into the room, he quickly clicks out of it and pretends he didn’t see it. This will lead to some drama later on, and at some point, while Tireslash is out, the truth will come out to the whole team, with the records appearing on the screen of the main computer and everyone staring at them. Tireslash then walks in, and freezes at the sight of her mugshot-type-picture.
She then proceeds to immediately flee the base, panicking. More drama ensues, and it is very fun (for me. Not for the characters).
But anyways, I should talk a bit about her personality.
When we first meet her, Tireslash has already had her reformation and redemption arc, so she is somewhat likable at this point (though she was already somewhat likable even back when she was a baddie). Very friendly and encouraging, Tireslash tries to see the best in almost everyone, and if any Decepticons happen throughout the series, she is likely to quickly welcome them in with open arms. She is very open minded and, despite having been a violent robber, very sympathetic when others talk about their feelings.
She also cares a lot about her friends and teammates, valuing them over everything else and protecting them with her life. This is why she was so well respected by her old team, and why she is well liked by her fellow Autobots. She puts a lot of effort into maintaining positive relationships with the people in her life, hanging out with them and lifting them up when they’re feeling down. She can also be a very good person to work with when trying to work with people who don’t work well with others and are often unfriendly. Tireslash is almost immune to feeling insulted, and even the most mean and sour of people will barely phase her. 
I actually initially thought her up because I was thinking about potential Starscream Redemption AUs, and I wanted to, for funsies, make a character on the team who quickly empathizes with him for personal reasons. So if I do have any kind of Starscream Redemption in an AU where she exists, she will immediately be like “well, I guess you’re part of the family now.” He could constantly be trying to insult her and act contrary, and she’ll basically laugh it off.
Tireslash is just very easy to get along with for many people, and it can be very fun in regards to character dynamics. However, she is not without her flaws.
While she tries her best, Tireslash can admittedly have some issues regarding understanding others, and will occasionally say some pretty hurtful or insensitive things by mistake. She means well and wants to do good, but she can occasionally forget how things like death have an emotional effect on people. 
In a Starscream Redemption AU, Tireslash and Arcee may have an argument over whether or not to forgive Starscream, and Tireslash unintentionally says something really insensitive things to Arcee in regards to Cliffjumper, resulting in a temporary rift in their relationship. Whilst she might be shown to have many very good points about redemption and forgiveness, Tireslash is explicitly presented as being in the wrong here. She later ends up apologizing to Arcee, and they make up, explaining their points more calmly.
Generally, Tireslash is good at working her way into people’s hearts through her friendliness and ability to shrug things off, forgiving and forgetting quite quickly. However, she is also somewhat socially awkward, and this can cause problems in a few of her relationships. She forgets about personal space a lot, which can get very uncomfortable very quickly. She is a bit too blunt, stating things that she really didn’t need to say aloud, and putting other people off.
When she was robbing and hurting people, she really didn’t seem to process the fact that her actions affect others, not thinking much about it or the morality of her actions. While she’s gotten better at that, she wasn’t always good at it. She just sometimes forgets that her actions have consequences, and that is a major flaw of her’s. Tireslash also has some impulse issues, and can be a bit triggerhappy. Again, she may be reformed and somewhat redeemed, but old habits die hard, and her slight violent tendencies is one of those habits. She can forget where to draw the line, and occasionally needs to be reminded to chill out a bit.
Tireslash is an experienced fighter, having been part of a crime syndicate after all, and while she’s developed a tamer fighting style that’s more fine tuned, her past still shows. Tireslash heavily relies on her weapons, but she actually doesn’t use her blasters all that often. That is because blasting at energon could be dangerous, and so she and her team were ordered to use their blasters as little as possible. This is why she’s best at using her blades and objects around her, tending to improvise in the middle of a fight.
She also does a lot of ambushing, trying to knock her opponents out before she even needs to fight them. But if she needs to fight, she will continue to focus on mainly knocking people out as quickly and efficiently as possible, aiming her punches more towards the head. Due to being quite clunky and large for a Femme, Tireslash often ends up being forced into the role of Tank, blocking attacks and even just hurling herself at the enemy. Her main form of attack is literally just body slamming people.
The main things that she brings to the team are fighting skills, but also her intense amounts of knowledge on Energon and gathering it, as well as conducting raids. Tireslash may be no scientist, but she was required to have a generally good understanding of it in order to do her job, so she knows a lot about how it’s stored, harvested, and how to transport it properly. She will also reveal random skills and knowledge (that make sense in the context of her backstory) which will serve as foreshadowing to her past.
Tireslash’s alt mode is probably gonna be one of those armored trucks that banks use for transporting money. This is quite useful at times, as Tireslash is able to carry various things with her, and this function is used quite frequently throughout the series when it comes to certain smaller items. She also has slightly thicker armor than most, which is very handy in battle and allows her to act as a bit of a shield for others.
Due to having been in many battles over the years, Tireslash does have a few scars, some of which cause her a bit of chronic pain. A particular example of this is one in which she got stabbed in the elbow, and really deep as well. At the time, she didn’t have much access to good medical services, so her old teammates tried to fix it themselves. 
Eventually, by the time she could have been able to have it fixed, it had already mostly healed/become old. So she now has a slightly wonky left elbow that she dislikes moving. Tireslash will still insist on “powering through” the pain, but there have been times where she’s been fighting for multiple hours, and her arm gave out on her. This is why her fellow Autobots occasionally remind her to not fight with that arm for too long, and Ratchet will scold her if she does.
Tireslash’s past does come back to bite her multiple times after the others have found out the truth, like when she discovers that her old second in command and longtime friend, Firewall, has joined the Decepticons. There is a lot of angst there, especially in regards to Tireslash trying to convince her friend to come to the side of good. They actually have an argument in which we learn some of the more unsavory parts of Tireslash’s past, specifically the murder of innocent people. Tireslash was a legitimately bad person, and though she has grown a lot over the thousands of years of war, it doesn’t take away what she’s done.
It even leaves some of the other Autobots feeling conflicted, because sure, they knew that she likely did some pretty bad stuff, but hearing the specifics makes it feel a lot more real.
There’s also some stuff tied to what caused these bots to join this group and become violent criminals. We look a bit into what things like poverty and desperation did to certain bots, and how some got wrapped up in a life like that. While we don’t get to know too much about them, there is a flashback episode in which we get to see the day most of Tireslash’s team dies and she is arrested. In that episode, we get to know a bit about her old team and their legitimately sweet friendships, their hopes and dreams. We see both the kindness and ruthlessness within Tireslash, and how she views things like death and revenge.
Tireslash’s past isn’t her whole character, but it does greatly shape it. I’m hoping to show an extremely nuanced and ~messy~ character who is nonetheless somewhat likable. A character who has a very specific kinda past. A character who has a somewhat sympathetic backstory, but not completely, and has a more unsympathetic backstory than a sympathetic one. A character who has a unique perspective in regards to the Decepticons without ever having been one.
Also, I just generally wanted to create a herbo with a dark past because I’m like that.
Hope you like her decently enough, or find her vaguely interesting. Please tell me what you think. I’m trying to just let myself make fun and silly OCs without caring what others think, but I do hope that people find this character to be potentially compelling. I might make a few more, each more cringy than the last, since I just do that with Transformers. I like big cool robots and I will make big cool robots if it’s the last thing I do.
So, TFP fandom, your thoughts?

Saw the post about art requests- it's Aligned Dream OC time! Details on them are third from bottom under 'details and concept ideas' on my pinned post. Also, how are the memes coming along?
Alright! Which Aligned Dream OC botbot do you choose? (I'm serious.. I cannot pick after all, it's your choice on which of your OC you want drawn!) [couldn't draw humans at the moment, sadly..]
I.. don't have any memes planned, sadly I don't think I remember which one

It still trips me up how relatively short Silverlight's gestational period was, in comparison to how long Cybertronians live (and the somewhat common fanon range being around a decade)
What... 11 months? Less? More? It makes sense that it'd be shorter than say a kid that's gonna grow to Megatron's size or Ultra Magnus's size, but still. It's fascinating, because i get to analyze the differences in biology for the tfp au and fanon stuff other people have made.
Especially since I looked into the tfwiki age ranges for the aligned mecha, and it seems like Cybertronians age in a much less even way than we do. hell I'd argue in most Transformers media we see them aging in a way that's not just human ages scaled millenia up. It varies from series to series, with MTMTE probably demonstrating the clearest look into this effect, transformers animated taking the much more humanlike approach to Cybertronian development timescales, and g1 being an absolute wildcard as they were in stasis for four million years rather than fighting for four million.
I've mentioned this before but for sparked mecha they skip most of the childhood parts (though i think this varies? The tfa constructicons were created pretty much at the 40ish developmental range, the RBA kids i believe are canonically placed in the 15 range, and the tfe terrans being the absolute youngest in comperative development as seeming around the preteen to early teen range.
Though, even with the cutoff in sparked mecha acknowledged, (at this point I'm talking about my observations in canon, but it applies to the tfp au as well), mecha seem to sit at the young adult stage (20-30 equivalent) for a much shorter amount of time than the slightly older adult stage (30-40). And similar to onward ages. Cybertronians appear to age exponentially, rather than in an additional manner. By that i mean instead of it being a clear 2+2 then 2+2+2 and onward way, it's 2×2 then 2×2×2. Interesting, right? Mecha who are developmentally equivalent to 35 stay equivalent to 35 much longer than a mech equivalent to 20 stays equivalent to 20.

When the Stars Align (Bakugou x oc)
The little girl gazed up at her mother, green irises filled with wonder and love. She’d always been a perceptive child, always asking questions on how the world worked, always getting into things she shouldn’t. 
“Momma,” she said softly with her feather light tap to her shoulder. “I have a-“
The woman lifted the eight year old on her lap. “-question? Go ahead Rae.”
She beamed and curled into her arms. “Why didn’t you and Dad get married like Ashlyn’s parents?”
Her mother chuckled. “I knew you’d ask that soon,” the girl opened her mouth to speak but got cut off. “Your father and I didn’t need to get married because when we were born we were meant to be together.”
“Why?” She chirped.
“Well our families have what’s called soulmates,” She saw the confusion on her daughter's face. “That means fate made us to be a match.”
Rae’s eyes blew wide. “Do I have a soulmate?”
She smiled and kissed Rae on the forehead. “Yes, yes you do.”
It started showing when she was 13, on her birthday at 12am exactly:
She had a dream.
In the dream she saw a boy about her age, he had dark green hair and eyes, for a brief moment she thought this was the boy she was meant to love forever, but the moment she truly looked at him she knew he wasn’t.
“Stupid Deku,” it was her mouth yet not her voice. “You’ll never be good enough to be a hero like me.”
A hero? She thought. This sure as heck doesn’t sound like one.
“Cmon Kacchan you know a quirk doesn’t make you a hero.”
Kid makes a point.
(Switching to first person)
I woke in a cold sweat, Anika shaking me quickly with wide eyes. “RAE!”
“I'M UP!” 
She sighed. “Dude your quirk started in your sleep and shit started shifting in my room.”
I was wide awake running into the hall. “Mom!”
My dad opened the door with a stern look. “Someone better explain to me why our house is backwards.”
I winced and looked down. “That would be me.”
Concern filled his eyes, replacing the anger. “What happened?”
So I told him and my mother what I saw, by the end Anika was jumping up and down. “I’m so excited.”
I frowned. “For what?”
Mom and dad made eye contact. “You remember how we came from families of soulmates?”
My breath hitched. “You mean-“
She smiled and Ani squealed. “You and your soulmate are both 13 now!”
I’d given up on the whole soulmate thing for a while. I saw his memories every night, most of which were about victory in some form, or about the boy named Deku. 
I came back to it after I turned 15.
All leading up to afternoon was tame, that was until I happened to glance at my wrist.
Train at 3 today 
Tell Mom to buy pens
Call Na-
I watched in fascination as the sentence finished before me, the only thing I felt was a light press of a pen.
Dad saw my baffled gaze and followed my eyes to my forearm. “Moora come in the kitchen!”
Soon the whole family gathered around my arm.
Anika, now 17, elbowed my stomach. “That means your his age too.”
I made a curious face and seized a pen. “What if I…”
Hello :)
Mom chuckled. “Our little girl’s all grown up.”
It took him a few hours to respond but I felt it.
Hey 
I picked up my pen and scribbled the answer with a small smile.
Hey
Sorry I didn’t say anything the first time
It’s okay no rush
He was silent for a moment, as was I.
I’m I frowned as my name faded from my skin.
You’re what
It won’t let me write my name 
I tried again and groaned as the entire sentence faded into the carmel tan of my skin.
Me either
Damn I pulled myself up from my window sill and sat in the nest of pillows on my bed.
Won’t allow my number either
It’s like it doesn’t want us to meet
I’m getting mixed signals from fate or some shit
I snorted and wiped down my arm, Question
Shoot
Do you see my memories when you sleep?
No tf i have a little red string on my pinky telling me which way to go
BRO WE CAN DEADASS GET THIS OVER WITH IF YOU JUST FOLLOW IT
I tried but it disappears if I do 
Fuck fate fr
Lol
We talked into the early hours of the morning, I learned Deku’s name was really Izuku and he was his old friend, I learned Kacchan was a stupid nickname he came up with when they were kids, I learned he wanted to be a hero when he grows up, I learned that he didn’t want a soulmate in the beginning.
Oh I wrote when he told me.
Not now tho after i got your first message I felt like it would be wrong to push you away
So I’m not an extra
Of course u r
Tf
Just not the worst one
I’ll take it
I told him about my family and my friends, I told him about my quirk and that I too wanted to be a hero, I told him about how I didn’t believe my soulmate was real until I saw the writing.
Why? He asked when I told him.
A lot of what I saw in my dreams was just yelling and explosions so I was convinced I was insane it took a while for my parents to really get me to understand but even then I was afraid you’d be someone who hates me like other people
I’ll kill anyone who hurts you
Thank you seemed like the wrong thing to say to that, any sane person would’ve called the police and gotten scared, but I laughed and rolled over with a smile. Immediately groaning when I saw the sun peaking out my window.
The sun just came up here
Same
Do you live in, the word Japan faded and I smacked my forehead.
I live in
I’m not even gonna try and put down what school I go too
Fate sucks fr
Not that bad
How so?
I met a girl who doesn’t give a fuck that I’m an ass
I flushed from head to toe Lucky girl
I'm the lucky one
Nope
Yup
Nope
Yup
No I’m far luckier for meeting someone who doesn’t care that I’m strange
You’re not strange whoever believes that is wrong
And you’re not an ass
I woke to the ceiling with the blank stare, my face in a tired frown, bags practically tattooed under my eyes.
Morning
That got me up, I slid out of bed and reached for my pen.
How’d you sleep?
Good and you?
Meh some extras blowing up my phone all night,
I giggle and walk down stairs with the pen, Anika rolls her eyes at my cheerful state. “Sup fucknugget.”
With a frown I use my quirk and spin her chair around, the floorboards rippling around at my command. Dad came down stairs and lightly hit me on the back of my head. “Fix my floor Rae.”
I turned the wood back to its original position with a huff, Dad mumbling a thank you and pouring me a cup of coffee. “What’s on the agenda Rae?”
Shrugging, I tell him. “I’m off work, might just take a nap.”
Anika gasps. “No! You told me we’d train for my admissions test.”
My idiot sister waited until she was 21 to become a licensed hero, so now she was asking me to train her on everything before the big test.
“Sure, what time?” I truly didn’t care when we went, I just needed the training.
“After breakfast?”
“‘Kay, just be ready.”
“C’mon Bakugou!” Denki begged again.
“No.”
“Really bro?” Kirishima deadpanned. “He can go with-”
He glared at him. “No, don’t side with Dunce Face.”
“Pleeeeease, my friend and I went to a pretty beach just a few minutes away, it’s super hidden so no one will film.”
Kiri rolled his eyes. “You can go Denki.”
Bakugou whirled on him but after these years Kiri had far outgrown him, now towering the blonde. “Fine,” he grumbled, turning to leave. “Hurry the fuck up.”
“Yay!”
“I took my friend to the beach yesterday to train. It was so much fun,” Anika chirped as I drove down the road. 
I shot her a look. “Did you tell him about-”
“No Rae I didn’t,” she said exasperated. “I wouldn’t tell a secret like that.”
“Sure.”
She smacked my arm. “I wouldn’t.”
“Mhm.”
“Rae,” She said dead serious. “I’m your older sister and I’m so proud of your accomplishments, I would never jeopardize your job.”
I laughed softly. “I know, I just worry for the day people find out I’m Atlas, hell even my soulmate doesn’t know, it won’t let me tell him.”
“Sometimes the filter really bothers me,” She told me. “I understand the pain of not being able to tell him the full story.”
I nodded solemnly, pulling into the public beach parking spot. “C’mon time to walk.”
“Only thing I hate about this beach.”
“What the hell Kami!” Kiri shouted, throwing his hands up around him. “You said you knew where we were going.”
He chuckled nervously under the glares of his friends. “Oops.”
Bakugou was practically boiling in rage and frustrating. “Thanks a lot Dunce Face, now we’re lost and our phones aren’t working.”
“What if we make a flare?” Kiri mused. “Would that work?”
He flicked his forehead. “No stupid, we’d light the whole forest on fire.”
The boys were just giving up hope, in the middle of the woods with barely enough water to last the day and one granola bar.
Bakugou’s head perked up when he saw his wrist.
Are you okay I feel like something’s wrong
He rifled for a pen and wrote down an answer.
Denki got us lost on a hike
The fuck? Are you okay???
Yeah just angry
I’m mad there’s nothing I can do
Lol
“AWEEEEEE,” Kiri squealed looking over his shoulder. “She’s so nice!”
Bakugou got ready to punch his best friend but got cut off.
“OW, YOU BITCH!” The yell came from the right of them.
Denki sighed and looked at the boys. “Told you we weren’t lost,” but stopped when he saw Bakugou’s sparking hands.
“Let’s just ask for directions and get out of here.”
Anika rubbed here arm and swore after I punched her arm. “That was uncalled for.”
“What if I’d stabbed your arm,” I told her. “You wouldn’t be complaining then.”
“Uh no, I’d definitely complain either way.”
I rolled my eyes and dropped into a fighting stance. “Round four, three-nothing.”
She groaned but raised herself into an acceptable stance. “Ready.”
We circled each other, I called upon my quirk, the sand shifted with me as I stepped, neither of us made a move  to attack. She lunged forward to grab me but I spun away with grace of a dancer, under my feet the sands balanced me.
I watched as she pulled in air and released it in a loud WHOOSH, pushing me over closer to the water.
She continued to throw gusts of wind at me, each more forceful than the last.
“You’ve been practicing, haven’t you?” I shouted over the roaring wind, a grin forming on my face.
Her eyes sparkled with mischief. “Just a little,” she replied, sending another gust, this time aimed at my feet, causing me to momentarily lose balance.
Using my quirk, I swiftly transformed the sand beneath my feet into a firmer platform, allowing me to stand my ground. I then molded the sand into a series of barriers, hoping to deflect her relentless attacks.
But Anika was quick. She directed her gusts upwards, sending spirals of sand high into the night sky. I watched, a bit awed by her skill, as the sand took the form of large birds, flapping and soaring over the beach, aiming at me.
Laughing, I decided to up the ante. I pulled moisture from the surrounding air, turning it into droplets of water which quickly crystallized into sharp, gleaming icicles. With a flick of my wrist, I sent them darting around Anika, not to hurt, but to challenge.
She deftly manipulated the wind to create a vortex around her, causing my icicles to swirl harmlessly before melting away. "Is that the best you can do?" she teased.
Taking a deep breath, I focused my energy. The sand around Anika began to ripple, forming a series of walls, which quickly transformed into a box to hold her. She looked around, momentarily surprised, before a sly grin formed on her face. She summoned wind currents to lift her up, attempting to get a bird's-eye view of my creation.
I wasn’t about to make it that easy for her. As she ascended, I manipulated the atoms in the air, creating a dense fog, obscuring her vision. I could hear her groan of frustration.
Descending back to the ground, she tried to break through, I reshaped and shifted the walls constantly, making it a challenge for her. But after some time she tore through the ground blowing up the box from below.
A migraine fuzed the corners of my vision, Ani saw this and darted forward, I stubbornly fought hand to hand until one of us lost. She threw poor punches and I frowned trying to amp her up to be better than that.
Needs work… I thought to myself.
I could see as she became tired of my toying around, finally stopping the hitting, she spun around to kick me with a round house. 
“Too slow,” I whispered, catching her foot and knocking her over. “I taught you better Ani.”
She huffed angrily and tried to sit up, but exhaustion weighed down on her and she laid flat to the floor. “I give.”
I laughed and gave her my hand. “Puss.”
“That’s not fair, you're a trained hero!” She exclaimed taking it, she opened her mouth to say something else but something caught her eye. “Hey this is private property!”
My face turned confused and I turned to the tree line. “Who’s there?”
A man easily over 6ft came out of the woods with a blush. “Sorry I got a little lost.”
I grin and shift my weight onto my right leg. “Sure man, where’s the others?”
A shorter guy with sunshine yellow hair came after him. “Ani!”
My sister’s face beamed and she ran up to him. “Kami!”
I deadpanned at her. “Really?”
“Bakugou! Over here!”
“Three of you…” My voice trailed off as I saw him for the first time.
Seeing him was like breathing for the first time, it was like a blind man seeing the sun for the first time, it was like my body got plugged in and electricity was flowing through me. My eyes widened and I knew he felt it too as he stumbled out nearly tripping over a tree branch, never once taking his eyes off me.
“Rae?” Anika said with worried eyes. “You okay?”
I didn’t answer, my lips were magnetized to each other, so I nodded numbly. I stepped forward because it just felt right, at this point Ani was next to me and the red head was with him.
“You’re scaring me Rae,” She said nervously. “I don’t wanna tell dad his favorite child died.”
He faintly gasped when she said my name, his hand sparking.
“Screw it.”
Suddenly a powerful outburst of wind threw me off the beach into the water, my instincts kicked in and I solidified the air under my feet. “Anika what the fuck.”
She crosses her arms smugly and grinned. “There she is.”
The boys gaped as I stepped down from the air. “That was a bit excessive.”
“Nah, worth it.”
“You good Bakubro?” The red head asked him.
‘Bakubro?’ I mouthed to myself. That doesn’t sound ri-
“It’s Bakugou.”
I looked up at his vermillion eyes, they bore into me but I held my ground.
“I’m Rae.”
Anika gave me an unsure look. “Uhhhhhh, ya’ll good?”
“Mhm,” I nodded. “I’m great.”
“So you’re Atlas?” He asked me later.
We’d taken them out to the beach house just around the corner. “Mhm, and you’re Dynamite?”
“Yeah.”
The silence wasn’t awkward but rather comforting. 
“All these years, we've been going to goddamn meetings together,” I laughed. “Who knew?”
“If we’d talked at all this could’ve been done with this a lot sooner.”
I shook my head in amusement. “Who knew?”
On the beach was Ani and the other two, they were teaching her how to punch properly. I gave up and went to the porch.
From what I could tell he wasn’t great with feelings, I think I’ve known that since we first spoke. So I took the first step and gently took his hand.
“Is this okay?”
He took a steady breath. “Yes.”

alike to you, i have my own death note oc :D if it's okay, would you tell us more about yours? i'm genuinely curious how they fit into the story and their role in it altogether.
Miss Rie // 1429
keyo I'm going to squeeze you like a stress ball or something you're awesome and you better tell us all about your oc?!?!? :DD and it is SO okay rr I'm gonna ramble. cw torture mention, mental health issues, manipulation and other such traits.
 ★━━─・‥…━━━☆
Relationships, Lore So Far, Personality, Strengths, Weaknesses, Trivia
Relationships
She's aligned with Team L!! of course dnsjhd
Rie and L have a funny relationship because they've worked together for a while and seem close but aren't together (as far as the TF know at least. I'm not sure yet to what degree her relationship with L has progressed at the time the anime is set). but everyone who meets them goes: "a girl in love and a man who's apathetic"
She actually likes Light a lot, because he's a nice guy, when he's not Kira. would be friends with him in another life.
When it comes to 「Kira」 whoever they may be, she dislikes but understands them. She knows that there are problems in the world and a lot of them stem from "evil people", but she doesn't really believe in purely evil people, and also realises that Kira's methods are counterproductive.
Rie does NOT get along with Misa. she can tolerate her but only in small doses. She's always kind to her, though this is mostly so she can try to get information out of her.
As for the rest of the Task Force: Likes them all. She never met Ukita though cause she introduces herself a while after L does in my current plan. Thinks Matsuda is a little naïve and Chief Yagami is blinded by his love for his son.
At the moment I'm thinking Rie isn't an orphan but lived somewhere near Wammy's House when she was little. She loooves annoying Near, Matt and Mello.
Lore So Far
there's a lot of unrefined stuff, what I have here is likely to change
I mentioned beforehand she works with L for a few years before the Kira case. she actually spent a lot of her life tracking him down, basically just to play with him/annoy him because... she's just an ass like that. So eventually she was able to contact him and they played a Game of cat and mouse, detective vs detective (I have a minific written for this that I might share. also Rie's not quite a detective... kinda a vigilante? not sure how to explain)
my current plan is she ends up getting stuck in a situation like Light was, where L suspects her for a case (she hacked into his database and deleted all his files) and has to work with her and keep an eye on her. I'm considering that she purposely got caught bc she was in trouble with more dangerous people, but maybe L catches her because, well, he's the world's greatest detective and the dangerous people just encounter Rie later
she's eventually cleared of suspicion because she wasn't involved in the cases she wiped, she just deleted them to be annoying and win the Game. Rie sticks around to annoy L for a while but then in come the dangerous people!!
the reason for this isn't fully fleshed out yet, but she gets herself kidnapped and once they realise she worked with L they try to get information on him out of her (through torture pretty much). this bit is the bit I'm probably least happy with, I want to work on it more. but in the end her stomach gets cut open, she escapes and collapses/gets rescued, and L realises he can trust her.
Rie goes to various countries and does her own thing for a few years, occasionally assisting L on cases, before she comes to Japan for the Kira case
there's so much Kira related stuff that I think I'll make another post sometime haha.
but that is the simplified and unrefined version of her backstory!
Personality
a proud feminist!! because come on death note needs one. (I know I said earlier she likes Light and dislikes Misa but the way he treats her ticks Rie off)
honestly can be very annoying on purpose, like a sibling
that said she's a good person overall, has done suspicious contract work and whatever, but she loves people and she really cares for everyone in her life
energetic 50% of the time, asleep the other 50%.
Pretty analytical but definitely has and expresses emotions. Probably INTP but I'm not great with MBTI tying.
a sore loser. But instead of trying to win, she will just give up if she knows there's a chance of losing. that way she can tell herself that it was her decision and thus, she won.
Loves her friends + family and has a somewhat motherly vibe
Strengths
she's the smartest woman in the world!! because honestly it is a crime that all the smart people in death note are men and hey, it's kind of cool to make an oc who's the anything-est in the world. (I wouldn't say she's REALLY the smartest, she just has a fairly wide skill set and is intelligent. maybe the highest-achieving)
Well she hacked L's main databases so I think you can tell she's good with technology
Her major in uni was psychology! Criminal and maybe abnormal psych, that is. also has dabbled in sociology and neurology. Rie knows a lot of languages.
a good baker (this may be the real reason L didn't have her killed).
A cheerful presence, good at raising morale and making L seem more approachable and likeable to the Task Force. usually optimistic.
Weaknesses
I know I just said she's optimistic, but this is because she makes a conscious effort to be. Rie's got a lot of anxiety and worries, and struggles with several mental health issues.
Her pride is as bad as L's ego. Actually, she'd claim it's worse.
When she gets angry she gets ANGRY. will straight up punch someone in the face and yell for hours.
bad at processing her emotions in general actually
Rie has attachment and abandonment issues I think. also because of the whole torture thing she's got some pretty bad PTSD.
She can be really rude/blunt. claims this is unintentional.
physically pretty weak, too.
SOOO MANIPULATIVE! like she's a detective and she kind of has to be so to make the most of her psychology knowledge and get info out of suspects, but this will often seep into her personal life. "let's perform experiments on our friends and coworkers to increase efficiency!"
Trivia!
Everyone on the Task Force thinks she binge drinks coffee. It's actually hot chocolate
Rie has a cat! her name is Synonym, nicknamed "Sin"
her favourite flowers are hydrangeas, bluebells, and roses (she's got a literal guns and roses aesthetic going on). Her favourite trees are wisterias and her favourite animals are either otters or elephants.
She's autistic (totally not because I'm autistic and can't write a neurotypical character)
Rie is actually just an alias. I'm debating on, if she lived near Wammy's, she might have met L and this would be a nickname derived from her middle name. but then I have to explain the "woah memory loss!!" in the whole database/suspicion incident. so, it's probably just a name that she likes. or maybe she shortened her own middle name.
The full alias is Rie Takamura. She also goes by Hina Suzuki (Japanese equivalent of Jane Doe) and 1429 (fourteen twenty-nine).
SHE LOVES CASINOS. her theme song would probably be "Joker and the Thief" (or maybe not, but it's in my playlist for her). Rie's very careful not to let herself get addicted to gambling but gosh she loves going to a casino, pretending to be a dumb girl, and counting cards until she can sweep the table off its legs.
lowkey a mad scientist (mostly social-scientist but still.)
 ★━━─・‥…━━━☆
I'M SO SORRY I just realised pretty much none of that has to do with DN canon which is kind of what you asked about akdfhsfhrghiwg I'll without a doubt do a part two sooner or later though

Well, now only one of Megatron's allies is left without a show. So if you can ask what if Predaking was a Attack on Prime. There would then be a set of three faction leaders, and Hange would go crazy at the sight of him. Sorry for translation errors. English is not my native language
This is a unique case, and this is mainly because of Predaking's overall character and character story in Transformers Prime.
I've discussed this with a few people, but Predaking really did get the short end of the stick in the show. A great parallel to him would be the monster Victor Frankenstein created. He was created for war, and because someone wanted to defy the very nature of god. He was constantly feared, lied to, betrayed, abused, ridiculed, you name it. And this all happens in the span of months after Predaking is born.
Predaking desires one thing: to lead more like him. To be amongst his own kind. To be respected and not be treated like some animal. His serving Megatron and helping him conquer before Megatron decided to double cross him, was no doubt a way of Predaking showing loyalty and gratitude for life and kinship with his own kind. So to hear that all three were apparently killed in RID2015 by Starscream is such bullshit though.
Would Predaking have turned good in the show if given the opportunity? I think he would, but it really just depends on who's showing him respect and treating him like an equal. Also, based on what we've seen with Predaking, he is someone who values honor as well. I just don't think Predaking would be evil for the sake of being evil. There are multiple factors to this. @emperor-kumquat explores this well with the TF Mercy game-story line, which explores the different paths Predaking could take: good, evil, or neutral, post TFP. It's a very interesting concept. Go check it out.
So knowing this, Predaking's place in Attack on Prime would be conflicting overall. He could probably leave with Darksteel and Skylynx to find a place to call home, or maybe he just refuses to be on a world of Autobots and goes alone. Or maybe Darksteel and Skylnyx are the ones killed off, leaving Predaking devastated. If he were to arrive on AOT, I don't think he would side with anyone. He's not going to side with Paradis because Megatron's right there. If anything, Predaking would try to kill Megatron for what he did to the Predacons on Earth. And he still blames Optimus for that too, because the Autobots ultimately did throw that grenade. Predaking would probably go after Optimus next. Would Predaking kill Optimus? Maybe. He's obviously not going to side with Marley because of the literal oppression of the Eldian people that reminds him of the abuse that he's endured.
...he could actually...he could serve as a third party. With Hizuru. Instead of Predaking going to Paradis or Marley, he hides out in Hizuru after sniffing out an energon deposit on their land. The locals spot him in predacon mode, and instead of running away in fear, they begin to worship him. Predaking finds offerings left for him by the energon deposit he's act. Confused by it, and the humans. Sure, the worship is doing wonders for his ego and pride, but he just doesn't get why they're worshiping him.
Besides Hizuru aligned themselves with Eldia in the past, I'd like to think that they kept their culture and traditions, instead of having it trampled and wiped out. And Predaking's form, which is reminiscent of a dragon, has the locals thinking that he's a god of their lands.
This does get wind to Ambassador Kiyomi and a new OC that I alluded to before hand via word of mouth from Kiyomi, Emperor Taisho. He orders Kiyomi to go to Predaking's location with some armed men. When they arrive, Predaking, in his beast mode, sees the weapons and immediately gets angry. He's screeching and acting intimidating, but doesn't attack. That's key here. They are all scared, and Kiyomi trying to figure out why, since Predaking didn't attack the local and let them leaves gifts. She puts two and two together and tells everyone to drop their weapons immediately. They are extremely reluctant given the situation, but Kiyomi is steadfast in her decision. They all do, and Predaking calms down, but is still growling at them.
"Apologies, mighty one." Kiyomi bowed, "We mean no disrespect. My name is Kiyomi Azumabito: head of the Azumabito Clan and ambassador to Hizuru. It is an honor to meet someone as great as yourself."
The dragon had stopped growling at them, but still raised it's head, looking down at them with contempt. Kiyomi raised her head and continued. "Many around the area believe that you are a god of our ancestors, great and powerful. They leave you offerings as a sign of respect."
The dragon tilted its head at that, and Kiyomi noticed the dragon's gaze turning to the small pile of offerings at the mouth of the cave it resided in.
"But...I know that you are not a god," Kiyomi proclaimed. The soldiers snapped their heads at Kiyomi, staring at her in horror. Did...did she just offend a dragon?!
"Ambassador!" one of them warned in anger and fear, but the dragon...didn't seem offended by Kiyomi's proclamation. In fact, it...snorted at the comment before sitting down on the ground, its front claws crossed together.
"I might not know the exact name for your specific species, but I have seen for myself some of those like you on Paradis," Kiyomi explained, "The scales mimic the metal that they are covered in. And so few mighty beings are capable of flight on this world of ours. And the locals say, that you have been hording glowing, blue, rocks, which your kind calls...energon."
The dragon's brow perk up at the word, almost surprised that Kiyomi would know such a phrase.
"You might not be one of the gods Hizuru treasures so greatly, but I know that you are a mighty being from beyond the stars, called a 'Cybertronian'." Kiyomi declared with a smirk, "So, mighty one, would you please care to reveal your actual form so that we may have a proper discussion of the implications of you being on our land bring?"
The dragon...seemed amused at Kiyomi's question, and Kiyomi prepared for the worse, but the dragon...suddenly began to change. Its body twisted and morphed, its elongated body turned into a human like one. Its claws turned into razor sharp hands and feet. Its wings were tucked behind its back. And its face changed into a human-like one, with horns poking out of its head like a crown.
"I could have eliminated you from the face of this world, little human," the dragon spoke with an accent, "But as of this moment, I see no need to. However, I do not appreciate weapons being brought into my domain."
"You are on Hizuru soil," Kiyomi reminded, "If anything, you trespass on our lands and bring us a great deal of trouble."
"I seem to bring a great deal of trouble to everyone around me because everyone fears what they do not understand," the dragon said, "This is quite the most relaxed I have been. I would prefer to be left alone, and I have the resources that I need. Leave now, and consider this conversation done."
"You do not seem to mind the offerings brought to your door." Kiyomi gestured to the small pile.
"I do not know what they are, and I have no need for any of them," the dragon explained, "I only allow it because these locals do not attack me or threaten me."
"Yes, because they believe you are a god of Hizuru legend," Kiyomi explained, "But that is not what the humans outside of are country will see you as. They will see you as a monster, a demon, a beast that must be struck down and stripped of its parts. The very components that make you your biology, is something so enriching and valuable it would bring great power to those who hold it."
"I doubt humans like you are capable of going against my might," the dragon declared.
"Maybe, but what about titans?" Kiyomi challenged.
The dragon was...perplexed at this question. "Titans?"
"Titans are very powerful and monstrous being," Kiyomi explained, "Many of them feast on humans, but only nine of them hold very rare and powerful abilities that could even go up against someone like you. A country called Marley has taken the resources that you feast on, and made these titans even more dangerous than before. They cause harm to millions of us humans around this world, and may very well become a threat to you, once they become aware of your existence."
"Then perhaps I have no need for this planet, and will continue my search for a new haven elsewhere," The dragon declared.
"You could, but I can only imagine how long that you take," Kiyomi sighed in defeat.
"You seem to underestimate my might, human," the dragon snarled.
"Oh, I would never," Kiyomi feigned innocence, "But how long did it take for you to find this world: a world full of substantial resources you could horde all to yourself, and a population that adores the ground that you walk on? And how long would it take for you to find the next one? Before something dreadful happens to you in that vast unknown?"
The dragon seemed to be considering Kiyomi's queries while everyone else grew tense. "A fair argument; however, I am not privy to the ways of humans. And I do not trust your kind, or anyone else for the matter."
Kiyomi noticed the bitter, angered, and pained expression in the dragon's eyes. "Because you yourself have been betrayed by someone you have trusted. Haven't you?"
"...perhaps," the dragon replied, "My past does not concern you."
"Then instead, we can work together towards a brighter future for the both of us. One where you are fed, protected, and worshipped, and one where we grow stronger to protect our motherland together."
The dragon contemplated this offer for a brief moment. "I will...consider."
"Thank you for this audience...," Kiyomi trailed off, "If I may ask, what is your name?"
"I have called myself Predaking," he introduced.
"A king with no subjects," Kiyomi mused, "How odd."
"Do not press your luck, Azumabito," Predaking warned, before transforming back into beast mode and retreating to his cave.
(You will learn more about the Emperor and Hizuru, in the Hizuru OVA coming out on March 19th. And once that is released, I will answer more questions that come into my inbox about this topic.)

Oh hey, I'm a transformers fan and Terrorspark is a transformers oc! Here's a question for it, if you want: Is it aware of any previous TF lore? If so, does it know of the characters/have any opinions on them? Does it align more with the decepticons or with the autobots? I'm willing to read up anything I can find on them!
Oh oh and, if Terror were to assign itself a morality alignment, what would it choose? (<- d&d thing, the "good/neutral/evil" one :))
How nice to get to talk about my tfocs for once! I'm gonna answer this more like a conventional ask since it doesn't seem to be intended as a character interactive one.
For a basic rundown, you can read this! I'll be referencing it throughout this reply.
All my tf ocs are set in the aligned continuities since that was my first exposure to transformers and one I'm most familiar with (Prime, most specifically). I do take bits from other tf media and modify according to my own discretion bc some stuff from aligned is either stupid (like the gender thing) or just wasn't handled well in that. And yeah I do take some lore from RID15 but selectively bc wtf were they doing back there.
With this in mind I'd have to say that Terrorspark is only familiar with Unicron when it comes to Canon characters, since it's been in the same place all these millions of years, and fluctuatingly slumbering. The times where Terrorspark was most involved and active (including being in bot form) was back when the original 13 Primes were more or less still around, though it didn't get to interact with them that much. Terrorspark was more like a jailguard type of bot, not in on the action, fighting and plotting, but moreso someone who bots were thrown to after they were already detained in some way. After everything cooled down Terrorspark has just been dutifully subjecting bots on it's surface to various nightmare scenarios, alone, and isolated, so it's not even aware of the Decepticon/Autobot conflict that formed later on.
Terrorspark would prefer to remain sideless entirely, despite being a creation of Unicron (who is ofc associated with the decepticons more). This is unsurprisingly bc as mentioned earlier it's tired of continuous suffering and I suspect if it came in contact with any modern day cybertronians, TR would likely make strong attempts towards peace between the two factions.
As for some opinions:
Unicron - currently it's opinion of him is conflicting, since the circumstances of TRs existence are very cruel, but Terrorspark can't really bring itself to be mad at Unicron (although that could very well happen later). It doesn't admire or worship him either, not anymore, there's just this sort of quiet, sad bitterness about it all. Respect only in theory, and very impersonally.
Megatron - first reactions would probably include "Megatronus, is that you?" lol, since Megs has named himself after one of the og 13. Initial reactions aside, Terrorspark would see him similarly to Unicron; sad, bitter, but not anything particularly fiery. Terrorspark is, emotionally speaking, too numb towards atrocities to have a strong guttural reaction about it, even when meeting or witnessing bad bots. I'm sure Megs would be very interested in Terrorspark as an ally considering everything, but TR would politely decline and make an effort to not engage with any decepticons after that. There might be attempts at encouraging Megatron to seek an end to the conflict but that would turn up fruitless, so ultimately yeah, avoidance.
Optimus - Vaguely positive opinion bc these two share very similar mindsets, I could kinda see Terrorspark working with the Autobots on the sidelines but I feel that it would tire of the constant conflict and prefer to, as I said, keep more sideless. It would respect Op and totally see where he's coming from but still be uncomfortable with participating in either side of the war. So, maybe an occasional help, and an emergency ally if needed.
As for the dnd thing, I honestly am not sure? Terrorspark itself would definitely be very reflective and thoughtful if it was asked to identify itself to some moral alignment and would probably think long and hard, until simply saying "My morals lie with minimizing overall suffering to all. Make of that what you will. I shall no longer blindly follow any one beacon as superior to others, and I'd prefer to tread my own path. But, you are warmly welcome to walk beside me on that path."
I'm not super familiar with how the dnd moral alignments work or are defined but I guuuuuesss I'd call Terrorspark a... Neutral good? Does that sound right?

In Which Shuttershot Made A Friend
(Time to give my other OCs some spotlight!)
Ever since Dimlit had discovered the Supermarket bots, the message spread across the Mall.
Shuttershot knew of the news just now through reading the excited bots' lips as they chattered off.
He sighed in frustration on being the last one to know of this. (But then again, he barely interacted with bots and never went out of the janitor's closet since no one even bothered to listen or understand him) He was intrigued by the news nonetheless.
Shuttershot went out and decided to give a visit. To list all the bots there. To ask them questions. To learn more about them. 'Maybe who knows, they might be less of ignorant a##holes than the Mall', he half-jokingly signed to himself as he journeyed to the tunnel entrance.
He went in the tunnels that both parties had built. Once he got on the other side, a cheery used receipt paper greeted him at the entrance.
There's warmth and kindness in her smile. He was surprised at the sudden appearance. She waved and greeted. As soon as she opened her mouth, Shuttershot was ready to read her lips like he always did with bots who aren't aware that he could not hear. "Hello! Welcome to the supermarket! It's nice to meet you!" she seems to say.
Shuttershot place his servo on the side of his forehead and then move it outwards away from his body. 'Hello.'
He signed carefully and slowly. 'My name is Shuttershot.'
She gasped and Shuttershot took a step back in confusion. Did he do something wrong? He thought frantically.
The bot talked as she signed. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to scare you! I was just surprised that you used sign language like someone back at my place. My name's Rollcall from the Shoprunners!"
Shuttershot looked at her in awe and in shock. For the first time ever, Shuttershot smiled with excitement. He then signed quickly and then pointed to himself. 'You can understand me?'
"Of course!" She replied with a nod as she signed. "I can understand you!"
Shuttershot signed rapidly and could not stop grinning. 'There's someone who uses sign language like me?' 'Are there other bots who can't hear?' 'Are there others who can understand too?'
Rollcall was taken aback by his servos moving rapidly in enthusiasm. She giggled as she signed. "Yes, it's Mr./Mx. Sleet Starch from the Freezie Folks. No, they can hear he just doesn't talk. And yes! Everyone in the Supermarket can understand sign language! Oh-! Oh! Hahaha.."
Shuttershot's servos stopped midway as he realized he overwhelmed her. He looked down on the floor and formed an apology.
Rollcall tapped his shoulder and Shuttershot raised his helm. "You don't have to apologize for asking many questions! Besides, you're excited to meet someone Mr. Shuttershot!" She signed as she smiled patiently. "Tell you what? I can show you around the place. I can list out ALL of the bots here."
The last one seemed to piqued Shuttershot's interest. He smiled as he signed with a flat servo, palm facing towards his face with his fingertips starting at the chin, and the servo arcing out from the chin towards Rollcall. 'Thank you.'
Rollcall grinned as she waved her servo. "You're welcome!"
