The ship I didnt know I needed

Being a transformer fan is terrible and embarrassing in biology cause the words mean SMT completely different in the fandom

-

Teacher: This is the heart and inside it has these things called valves here's a close up to them

Me who's seen all the things said about what people want to do to the characters: THE WHAT!?

Bumblebee: We have you surrounded you murderer!

Starscream: I'm not a murderer I'm a killer

Bumblebee lowers weapon: Wait there's a difference? What's the difference?

Hot rod: I'm not smart enough to answer that. Just ask Starscream-- AND HE'S GETTING AWAY

Starscream ran away as soon as their attention was away from him.

Being near Him automatically lowers your brain cells.

Gosh I love my random brain, never stop being whatever tf you are

Was feeling sad and made my figures cuddle.

They looked cute so I drew them 👉👈

get his flame on

My mtmte voice headcanons^3^

Posting all my transformers art here bc 🎊 LET ME INNNNN

Here’s rodimus because I like to draw freaky style

been thinking about rodimus and Starscream

When you've got task paralysis but your blorbos are waiting for you to finish your fucking hw so you can draw them

So I've seen ROTTMNT but I haven't read MTMTE/Lost Light..only seen snippets of the comic....

Someone who's seen both pieces of media, tell me if these two blorbos are anything alike?

Because they're both giving "silly goober trying to live up to the roll of leader while experiencing an angsty personal crisis" and I don't know how accurate it is to say they're basically the same or not....

More for this au (my brain really likes it):

Hot rod told Rodimus stories about his time in the wreckers and his life before the war and during. He also told him about nyon and its history and culture. And Rodimus, wanting to give respect to hot rod and make sure he's also happy, decides to take on the culture of nyon as his own.

He tells the wreckers that he isn't hot rod. He believes that it won't be fair for them to not know, nor will it be fair for him to try and act like someone he is not.

They don't believe him. And Rodimus doesn't blame them for not believing (he's aware that what he told them is insane, and also that they don't want to believe that a mech who was their friend died and the matrix just made an entirely new mach to possess his dead body).

The problem is that even after the war and at the lost light nobody believes that he isn't hot rod. And Rodimus does get annoyed by that, but he also doesn't want to hurt them, so he doesn't say anything.

Hot rod is pretty pissed though. He understands why Rodimus doesn't say anything, but he also knows how much it annoys him that no one believes what he says. (Hot rod tried on multiple occasions to communicate with the wreckers and other machs through their dreams just to be able to yell at them and explain that Rodimus isn't laying, and actually isn't hot rod).

Am au where rodimus isn't actually hot rod, but a manifestation that the matrix created of an entirely new mach.

But the problem is that he (rodimus) is literally a sparkling.

All of his knowledge is from the matrix. But the matrix (and primus) were stupid and only gave him the most basic knowledge, like how to speak, read, write, transform, and other basic stuff.

But they (the matrix and primus) forgot to give him the mind and mentality of an adult mach. So it's literally a Shazam situation with a child (sparkling) in a grown up body. The only difference is, this sparkling can never change out of the adult body into the one he was supposed to have, and his stuck acting like something and someone who isn't him.

Hear me out.

Rodimus and the song "remember my name" by mitski

A little more on that idea-

The reason he acts so childish is because he died as the cybertronian equivalent of a teenager Or early twenties.

When Megatron finds out that he basically killed a teenager, and doomed that teenager to a life and a role that he didn't want. He is horrified with himself (I believe in Megatron having morals and not believing in killing sparkling or younglings during the war).

No one sees him for two weeks.

Also, after brainstorm finds out he starts working on a way for Rodimus to start aging again. Rodimus is very thankful for that, bit sadly no one lets brainstorm use what he invented for fear of it killing Rodimus.

Brainstorm came up with seven different ways, and made seven different machines for those ways, in two months. Three of those inventions can fix the problem, two of them will just make Rodimus a baby (no actual way of fixing that), one of them will actually kill Rodimus, and the last one will turn Rodimus invisible (not sure how that works).

I heard a sound on tik tok where a character said they are the same age forever, and that got my brain puting rodimus in there.

SO, rodimus who's stuck the same age he was as when he died, both physically and mentally.

The matrix revived him, but he just, stopped aging. He doesn't even realize it until someone points it out to him.

I imagine he doesn't tell the crew cause he doesn't want pity. But then one time he's very drunk and out of it and just starts talking and making everyone concerned.

Some fluff for this au cause my brain was nice to me (it loves coming up with angst but not fluff).

when hot rod died he was somewhere in his twenties. And when the matrix made Rodimus to possess his body, it "accidentally" brought back hot rod as a sort of voice or ghost that only Rodimus can hear/see.

Hot rod (instead of being mad at having someone possess his body) becomes some sort of mentor- parental figure- for Rodimus cause he realises that he's only a sparkling.

He helps Rodimus by telling him about mechs he meets or are important, Explains about the war and its history, teaches him about Cybertron and its history. And just doing all of the things that the matrix and primus didn't do.

Hot rod is also Rodimus's voice of reason (Rodimus only listens to him). And lets just say that without hot rod, Rodimus (and everyone else) would have been dead fifty times over.

Am au where rodimus isn't actually hot rod, but a manifestation that the matrix created of an entirely new mach.

But the problem is that he (rodimus) is literally a sparkling.

All of his knowledge is from the matrix. But the matrix (and primus) were stupid and only gave him the most basic knowledge, like how to speak, read, write, transform, and other basic stuff.

I need someone to write a fic about rodimus just verbally abusing Optimus for like three chapters. And at the same time also menging to make him understand why putting the mech who chousd a civil war, the deaths of millions of cybertronians and the destruction of their planet as the CAPTAIN of a ship full of people who have been either directly or indirectly hurt by him is a stupid aft idea. Especially when the other (and first) captain of that ship literally got FRAGING KILLED BY THAT SAME WAR LORD (now war criminal on probesion).

Just, a fic of rodimus explaining to Optimus everything he did wrong in life.

Hear me out, a rodimus who believes that hot rod is dead (he doesn't wanna believe that he is hot rod).

Whenever he talks about his past before becoming rodimus, instead of saying "I did" he says "so hot rod...". And nobody knows why he talks like he isn't hot rod.

They don't understand until Megatron gets so annoyed by that, that he starts demending rodimus to stop talking like he isn't hot rod.

And rodimus just looks him, dead in the optics, and says: "But I am not hot rod, I am rodimus. Hot rod is dead. Don't you remember Megatron? You were the one who killed him after all, weren't you?"

And after he says it there is just silence. Because nobody knows how to react or what to say.

Nobody knows how to react to finding out that too become a prime, their captain literally died (I like to believe that rodimus doesn't like to talk about how he became a prime). That he died at the servos of the mech who became his co-captaim years later.

Or that he believes that who he was before is still dead. and not even the matrix can bring him back.

Some more memes

I am NOT sorry for the dead jokes

For the post I made about rodimus and ADHD meds

I heard a sound on tik tok where a character said they are the same age forever, and that got my brain puting rodimus in there.

SO, rodimus who's stuck the same age he was as when he died, both physically and mentally.

The matrix revived him, but he just, stopped aging. He doesn't even realize it until someone points it out to him.

I imagine he doesn't tell the crew cause he doesn't want pity. But then one time he's very drunk and out of it and just starts talking and making everyone concerned.

I really like the idea of an undead rodimus au.

He got the matrix after getting his spark blown up and deing. so I like to think instead of giving him a new spark, the matrix just replaced his spark with itself. And so after it got separated from rodimus he was left with no spark, but he still lived.

He now lives without a spark and cannot die. If his head gets cut of, he can just put it back no problem, it also works with all his other parts.

He knows he can't die in a normal way, but he forgot to tell the others. So one time during a fight or during the mutiny, something happens and everyone finds out. I imagine it goes something like that:

Rodimus: *looses his head*

Everyone else in the battlefield: *stop fighting and looking*

Rodimus: *gets up of the floor and puts is head back in place* well that was annoying. And my head is gonna be wobbly for hours now.

Everyone: *horrified*

Rodimus: what? Did I do something wrong?

I don't think you understand how much I need rodimus to be good at math. I mean a person who learned physics at university for FUN good.

And he doesn't even realize how good he is cause he uses it for art and for his creative outlets (you can't tell me carving on your desk with a knife is not a creative outlet).

He can literally do most math problems in under half hour cause his brain moves super fast (speeder and ADHD), but he doesn't realize it cause he doesn't even LIKE math. (Just like me for real).

He only finds out it's not normal to solve a math problem in under a half hour cause of the one time he walked into the labs while brainstorm was calculating and just casually looked at the board and point out a mistake. Brainstorm cries for about an hour cause of that.

Anyway, I need rodimus to be good at math but also really lazy about it so no one knows or believes brainstorm when he tries to tell them.

Living my best/worst (can't decide) life while thinking of the lost light crew doing some event were they need to wear clothes and somebot decides that femmes have to wear a dress and mechs have to wear a suit (is that how it's written?), And most of the crew respects it although they are confused by that.

And then the day of the party comes and everybot just loses their slag cause rodimus is wearing a combination of a dress and a suit.

And when asked why, he just says that he wasn't sure what he was supposed to wear.

And long story short that's how the crew finds out that rodimus is gender queer

After the drugs stops working, rodimus in the med bay getting a check up:

Ratchet:*looking at rodimus's processor* I'm not sure what chousd rodimus to act so strangely.

Ultra Magnus: I see, hopefully we could figure it out.

Rodimus: you know, I actually really enjoyed those last few hours. My processor wasn't going like 100 mph for once and I could actually focus on my work without getting distracted every two seconds.

Ratchet, Ultra Magnus, Megatron and everybot else in the med bay: *Relishing that rodimus as the cybertronian equivalent of ADHD and none of them knew, including him* This explains so much and yet so little at the same time. Oh primus we're so stupid for not relishing.

Rodimus:*confused* are y'all ok? Did I miss something?

Drift: don't worry about it rodi. But just out of curiosity, do you remember who gave you the energon before you started filling weird?

Rodimus: yeah, it was getaway. Said he made it himself as a gift.

Drift and everybot else:*Relishing what getaway was trying to do* `I'm going to kill getaway`

I need either Brainstorm or Perceptor or literally ANYBOT on the Lost light to somehow make the cybertronian equivalent of those ADHD meds that make your emotions disappear (you know the type, every Neurodivergent person who takes meds had them), And somehow those meds/drags get into rodimus's energon.

I just want the ENTIRE SHIP in chaos cause rodimus is ACTUALLY WORKING! (What?).

Like, Megatron and ultra Magnus having an existential crisis.

Drift being concerned for his emica (you write it like that?) cause he doesn't wanna race.

Ratchet and all the medics on the ship trying to get rodi into the med bay to give him a check up.

All of the other bots being 100% SURE that rodimus is possessed or got replaced.

And at the same time that the entire crew is panicking, Rodimus is enjoying having his processor go about 950 MPH for the first time in his life. (He is able to do his work without getting distracted or bored after five minutes).

The crew notices rodimus's lack of emotions, rodimus himself does not.

Do you know what I need?

I need rodimus to have a sleeper build.

I need rodimus, a speeder, to be strong enough to lift Megatron and Ultra Magnus over his head and throw them, like, five of kilometers (about 16,404 foot) sideways.

I need nobody on the crew knows except for Perceptor and Mag's (cause from what I know, they were both a part of the wreckers) cause weil in the wreckers he used to throw other members during a battle or for fun.

I need the crew to be in a battle on a planet, and during that battle Mag's tells rodi too throw him. Everybody else just looks at Mag's like he lost it. That is until rodimus just flips an enemy of his, picks up Mag's, and just throws him too the other side of the battlefield to wreck chaos among enemy lines.

That is what I need

More memes, cause I like making them

I love making memes about things that most of my knowledge about them is from Tumblr and fanfics. Really shows how scared I am of actually consuming that media.

I made some transformers memes (they are mostly MTMTE and me shitting on Optimus)

I know close to nothing about MTMTE or the idw comics. But that will not stop me from making memes based on what I do know about it
