Oh there's more. I'm salivating, I'm going insane, I was staring at the line-art for Swindle while writing ch. 14 I'm just going insane. But first, NEW COBALT ART!!!

He's the same tricky bugger as always, a tragic backstory and all. But mostly, he's concerned with what the Enforcer's under his control are investigating...

The Capitalist: Swindle

A mech that delights in his work, Swindle will forever hold sway over the world of Iacon so long as it is subservient to money. He wishes for nothing but more money and power, and it's hard to say he believes much. What he does believe in for certain however, is a high profit margin.

Murder Is A Money Game Concept Art/ Character Masterpost (Up To Ch. 13)

Hi There! It's me, the author of Murder Is A Money Game on AO3. There's a lot of characters, but thank Primus for my wonderful Co-Author/Writer/Generally Insane Auteur, @f1shbowl. There's no words to describe the perfection of the art, but hopefully over the past like 2 months of the fic you've seen my incoherent screams of love 🤗

So, I decided to make a bit of a Major character and Concept art Masterpost, with a few little drawn scenes in between, because all of it is Peak. Now, onto the beautiful art!!! Characters will be here in order of appearance <3

First: A Scene.

The opening scene of a detective fic wouldn't be very good if it wasn't the murder, now would it? Alpha Trion dies, and so a grand plan begins to unfold... You don't get to know who the murderer is yet though...

Next: Prowl's Morning

We open with Prowl on his morning, a wonderful little interaction with his cousin to follow, and soon the rot of murder shall touch him, too. He is a calculating mech, one who would prefer nothing but the cold lines of logic to analyse, but has had to adapt to life with other mechs, like his cousin;

Another: Smokescreen, Prowl's cousin and Business Partner.

Here, he's thinking of Prowl's, well, Habit. You know. He's an obsessive gambler, a concerned family member, and a competent detective, but nothing compared to Prowl

A Scene: Prowl and Smokescreen argue over Union harm statistics and business financials.

I really love this one and the Alpha Trion death, simply perfection and the framing is everything, the two colors the only ones there, RAH. So good.

Here, a mech: The Chief of Enforcers, Ironhide

He's a calm and considering mech, one much like Jack Crawford from Hannibal. He does whatever he can to help the mechs of Iacon city, but he can't do everything, and sometimes he has to turn to previous employees, Prowl and Smokescreen.

Jazz, the musician.

He's a war vet, a competent hacker, and claims to have been in the wrong place at the wrong time. Is he telling the truth? His friends certainly think so...

Orion Pax: A minor Major Character

He's tired, the death of his archival mentor Alpha Trion and working with his friend D-16 to further the efforts of the Union have taken their toll on his frame, gears grinding as he travels under the city to find its' hidden power. His friend is accused of murdering his mentor, and all the evidence appears to point in that direction too...

Bismuth: A cousin of Prowl and Smokescreen

An OC of @f1shbowl's, this pesky little speedster wants nothing more than to impress Prowl with his work in Ironhide's Enforcers. Maybe his impulsive streak can help him, or will it lead to his downfall?

A Mech of no Renown: Drift

He is known only to Ratchet, the medic in the Kaon region of Iacon City. He comes to the medic's clinic every night with bleeding wounds and a struggling frame, trying to survive on the streets. What is his purpose? Why does Ratchet hide him?

Scene: Jazz sings while Prowl pretends to recharge

Freed from overt custody by Orion's legal prowess, Jazz sings instead of attempting to recharge, not noticing his Temporary Probation Officer Prowl on the other hotel balcony. They talk, and they argue, and they learn about one another. The lights of Iacon reflect their feelings.

A Union Officer: Soundwave

A mech who is both dedicated to the Union, its leader, D-16, and his cassettes, the telepath knows of Prowl's secret. He tries to help Orion with his research, but even with the help of Senator Shockwave, cannot parse the important texts...

Jazz's friend: Blaster

A loyal mech who babies his cassettes Rewind and Eject, he tries to come to Jazz's rescue only to find him supposedly safe. He wants to help wherever he can, but the politics and Rot of Iacon are no place for a musician.

Scene: Jazz Remembers

The war weighs heavy on the helm of the mechs in it, the death of Zeta Prime a secondary concern to a mech who lost half his limbs and his eyesight, hiding his optics from the world once the outside tried to get in. His gaping wounds are barely patched over, and another world tries to peek through.

THATS ALL!!! Ch.13 of Murder Is A Money Game will hopefully have a scene or two that is much more fun to draw, since all this art only goes up to about Ch.8, which makes sense. These past 5 chapters have been real talking heavy, which isn't at all the kind of introspective artsy scenes I love to write, but there's only so much I can do lol. The plot goes on!!

Anyway, once again, humongous thanks to cowriter and artist @f1shbowl, you know the art is peak, I know it, so go show that and follow! Both of us if you feel like it.

Pretty please if you wanna, do join the Murder Is A Money Game Discord Server, just cause we have little fic moment previews, art streams, and you know about the fic updating first.

Thank you so much for looking! Ch.13 WILL BE OUT SOON!!!!!!!

MIRROR MIRROR , dance in the mirror

Holy shit Swinbee art from Rhys after MONTHS!!! Cool anyways I hate them

[trashiiplant]

guess who finally caved and made their own tf redesigns

I'll be tagging this as "Transformers Revitalized AU" it's simply your typical everyone lives no one dies au mostly so I can freely goof around with the characters.

post war type beat, everyone tries to just kind of heal from it the best they can and reconcile with old friends

(megan is an author in this one :>c)

Watching G1 Transformers "BOT"

One last time/relax, have a drink with me...

Here we go. The Final episode of the OG cast of G1. The last normal ep before Everybody Dies. Here we go.

We open with Bruticus running around and apparently Megsy's brainwashing didn't do that much to change their personalities.

Things are back to normal between Megs and Screamer. Which is Screamer points out the dumb flaws, Megs ignores, etc.

Swindle is...trying to sell their spare parts? Geez. Anyway this ep is really weird so far. I can barely follow what's going on.

Oh no. Three whole annoying humans. And they're assholes. Please don't be in this episode much.

Finally there's the autobots! This is like their last episode you'd think they'd be doing more.

Three humans find Brawl's brain. Oh no. Our awful species screwing things up for cybertron, again.

Swindle sure isn't having a good day here. Anyway one of the bots quips 'this is so degrading' Yeah your last hurrah could've been a bit grander.

I think I'll head canon Revenge of Bruticus as the true Season 2 finale, this feels more like a filler ep that got aired out of order.

Yay Bruticus is repaired finally maybe something cool will happen now. And it does, Meg and Co are gonna fire on the bots! That feels like a season finale thing.

Weirdly Bruticus gets his ass kicked really easily though? Last episode he was kicking Megsy's ass and now one of the autobots takes him down.

Someone actually called Starscream Screamer! I don't think I've ever heard that. Not sure which autobot it was.

The cons sure are getting their asses kicked in this episode. Also the girl is the only one of the human trio who's even remotely useful or tolerable, as per usual.

Did Bruticus just fire at Screamer!? Or rather the humans are. Holy shit it got Soundwave too! STOP HITTING MY FAVORITES YOU ANNOYING HUMAN A-HOLES.

HOLY SHIT DID THOSE DIPSHITS PUT A GAG ON HER AND NOBODY DOES ANYTHING ABOUT IT!? The autobots are sociopaths damn. Even Megs didn't gag Astoria when he caught her.

Anyway well, pretty lame way to say goodbye to the OG cast. At least they could've gone out with dignity.

But oh man. We're at the movie. What a wild ride with the OG cast. Guess tomorrow I get to see all my faves die. I'm not ready.

like father like son

Swinblurr kiss idk i aint drawn shit

[keferon]

Snow bots au anyone? :D

They're back together a year later because it's snowing again❄️

All right! For context: I imagine them hanging out every winter in some kind of resort (a resort that Blurr owns. Because his bar business has expanded that much over time.)
