The Stuntecons

sorry for the lack of tf art, I’m busy with a bunch of stuff. But anyways here is the stuntecons! So basically they’re a very messy family as motormaster is their dad, he split his spark and those shards became his kids. He did it to become more powerful but he didn’t realise that he also had to take care of them.

An idea I've had for a while after watching Frieren.

She has some awful luck with mimics.

Or wait, I have awful luck with mimics.

Will take a few years to get used to that.

do you guys every think abt death vs immortality as a thoroughline in like. literally all of the mechs albums.

old king cole is explicitly warped by immortality (never to forgive he would eternal live, his hands dyed red by gore - can be read a few ways depending on where u place the emphasis, but at the very least communicates that his wrath is facilitated By his immortality), and the olympians commit attrocities in order to hold onto their wealth and the immortality that it grants them (murdering arachne, yanking heracles' chain the second he tries to go freelance, having a monopoly on the acheron etc). the value they put on immortality and living forever, and the fear they have of ever possibly losing it, has completely warped their morals and priorities.

and while it comes up less in tbi, there's still significant emphasis placed on how odin has been in power for a century (both thor + the narrator bring it up, and there's also an emphasis on how long ago the bifrost project was started, and how 'no one left living' can explain its science). her villain monologue in rangarok iv places the extinction of asgard as an honour - a ruin that no one can possibly rebuild from is called 'apotheosis'. and as she says at the end, the idea that no one can possibly outlive her is a key draw for odin. asgard dies with her.

in hnoc, the only really immortal character is brian (and we only really know that bc of knowledge we get from outside the album), but the axis of life and death as a privilege vs a curse is still very present. 'mordred's gift to Arthur could be love in his own eyes / fating him alone to keep the life to which he clings', not only posits that the gift of survival isn't inherently good + kind (which the audience would immediately recognise as love, not possibly love), but places emphasis on the fact that arthur is now utterly alone. the station's death at the hands of mordred is hardly a happy one ('Its people damned, doomed by a man who's lost all his regrets'), but arthur's fate is arguably worse. severed from the finality and closure of death, what does he become? [insert that one cool theory abt hnoc arthur becoming old king cole here]

it's like. on a meta level, the reason we as fans don't put much emphasis on the depravity + cruelty of the mechs is bc the people portraying the mechs are all charismatic + skilled performers. in live gigs they're all portraying the fun side of their characters - roasting each other, bantering with the audience, making fun of the characters they're singing about, referencing off-screen violence - bc if they portrayed their lore too literally they'd be comitting felonies LMAOOO

but narratively, its like. literally every album is a meditation on the ways that the glorification of immortality can ruin civilisations - can ruin galaxies. whether its rooted in the fear of you specifically dying, or of being outlived, or overpowered or forgotten, or if its done for the sake of someone else's survival... it's all corrosive. if u refuse to accept the indisputable impermanence of life, you lose the ability to value it, and u numb urself to the reality of just how fucked up it is to cut another person's life short for any reason.

like. i do think some of the mechs started as good people, and some of them even might still have ethical standards, but i REALLY cannot stop thinking about how fucking. fascinating it is that this group of immortals who are KNOWN for basically considering nothing but how fun and/or violent any given activity will be, have basically filled their entire discography with songs about how their continued existence is corrosive and brings tragedy + ruin wherever they go.

so how self-aware are they? do you think those old morals + ethics still linger in their mind, when they're writing down these tragedies? they willingly self identify as liars + thieves + bastards, etc etc, and they seem to have no trouble identifying the 'bad guys' in the various albums (ie: humanising snow + cinders + rose, but not king cole), but do those concepts actually mean anything emotionally, or even theoretically, for them all beyond their dramatic potential? do they remember their lives before they were mechanised as it actually happened, or do they remember it as lyrics to a song? is it possible to be entirely self aware abt ur own capacity for violence (as jonny in paticular claims to be), if you no longer relate to violence as anything other than a narrative device - a means to an end, whether comedic or dramatic?

#the mechanisms #mechanisms #mechs #its not even that i have a specific passion for super grimdark mechs characterisation #just from a thematic perspective it is SO interesting to have these characters #narrating tragedies who themselves dance in and out of narrative conventions + signifiers of good + evil #and also like. literally transform themSELVES into narratives via backstory fiction + songs #its all so like. was there ever a truth here? if its all been forgotten + replaced with stories? can any of them care about good and evil #anymore on a level beyond how it will make an audience react?#idk. i care them #mine #my writing

Charbee Halloween 2022!

In which Charlie and Bumblebee decide to go as superheroes this year.

This is a nod to their actors' other roles: Hailee Steinfeld was Gwen Stacey in "Into the Spiderverse" and Will Friedle who is Bumblebee's VA in Transformers Prime and Robots in Disguise was also Terry McGinnis(Batman) in Batman Beyond.

I was specifically looking at Batman Beyond's batmobile for Bee's possible alt mode.

from the rescue bots point of view optimus is such a deadbeat. half of the messages they send he doesn't respond to and the other half he only responds to bc griffin rock has something he needs. i bet sometimes he just sends vague ass inspirational quotes to the rescue bots hoping they'll be able to draw something from them bc he's too tired to think of anything. i mean the guy is currently in the middle of leading a miserable war i think heatwave losing his job is the least of his problems. he's trying okay

#heatwave: sir we're fighting a dinousar #optimus (covered in energon just witnessed horrors beyond his comprehension. fought satan): that's great heatwave #rescue bots #tfp #transformers

Medbay bots

a mix of medic bots, regular bots and some poor guys that was sent to the medbay. Thihi, red alert and inferno are a couple. First aid and velocity where med students but due to the war they had to graduate faster than they wanted to. Brainstorm was a decepticon scientist in the beginning but he was so bad at his job that he got kicked out, while he didn’t know he got fired, he just wanna do evil science.

and swerve is swerve :)

Silly scene I want to include in Backseat Gamers, if it ever gets written.

I like to think that the HUD commonly seen in transformers media and fannon is basically an exocortex, since that's probably a what a real-life HUD would be.

And of course, I immediately pondered if Blitzwing could install and run DOOM on his...

cybernetic/robotic interfacing

This: pleasure (Soundwave and Megatron interfacing) "You deserve other than treason"

Megatron has never known solace, fulfillment or any sort of pleasure different from that of violence or murder. Soundwave assist .

Full image under the cut

Read in Ao3

This is my first purely er°tic writing, where I introduce how I conceive interfacing. I'm using the se x ual interfacing tag for approximation only, as I'm not adopting the widely spread and assimilated fan made conception of valve and spike penetration, too similar to organic intercourse. I wanted to explore the idea of an intimacy that is not derived from human ways. No valve nor spike here. My vision is purely robotic and cybernetic, and inherently se x less, involving chords, ports and networks solely, but also meaning a sensorial stimulation, and even, a more intimate engagement.

Into the lighthouse (9246 words) by ARTificial_Absinthe Chapters: 1/1 Fandom: Transformers - All Media Types, Transformers: Prime Rating: Mature Warnings: Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings Relationships: Megatron/Soundwave (Transformers), Megatron/Orion Pax (past and implied) Characters: Megatron (Transformers), Soundwave (Transformers)

Series: Part 2 of The ever-dying sun

Summary: Megatron has spent all of his life in darkness, in every possible way. Now, no longer a miner, no longer a gladiator, no longer ignorant nor cautious, he claims new life and a new world of his own as he claimed a new name, and he shall get it. Loss and new casted shadows inevitably came with it, but there's a constant he can always rely on, a shaft of purple light. Soundwave is always willing to aid Megatron. He led him out of ignorance, he'll help him to raise from the low, and there's still one more thing he can help with, one more thing that he can still teach to his Lord. Or, "Soundwave introduces Megatron to interface pleasures." Takes place after the High Council audience that plunged the world into war.

One of the most interesting Lovecraft stories is the time he participated in a round-robin with some other pulp authors, the story being called "The Challenge from Beyond". Lovecraft's part of the story is about a guy who finds himself on an alien planet, and then in a typical Lovecraft twist, his part ends with the guy looking in a mirror and fainting when he discovers that his mind has been put in the body of one of the centipede-like aliens. This could be a fairly typical ending to a Lovecraft story. What's interesting is what happens next, when his old buddy Robert E. Howard writes the next part. This is how his part begins:

"From that final lap of senselessness, he emerged with a full understanding of his situation. His mind was imprisoned in the body of a frightful native of an alien planet, while, somewhere on the other side of the universe, his own body was housing the monster’s personality.

He fought down an unreasoning horror. Judged from a cosmic standpoint, why should his metamorphosis horrify him? Life and consciousness were the only realities in the universe. Form was unimportant. His present body was hideous only according to terrestrial standards. Fear and revulsion were drowned in the excitement of titanic adventure.

What was his former body but a cloak, eventually to be cast off at death anyway? He had no sentimental illusions about the life from which he had been exiled. What had it ever given him save toil, poverty, continual frustration and repression? If this life before him offered no more, at least it offered no less. Intuition told him it offered more—much more.

With the honesty possible only when life is stripped to its naked fundamentals, he realized that he remembered with pleasure only the physical delights of his former life. But he had long ago exhausted all the physical possibilities contained in that earthly body. Earth held no new thrills. But in the possession of this new, alien body he felt promises of strange, exotic joys."

From what I've seen on Tumblr, I think there are some folks here who would appreciate Howard's sentiment.
