first of all. fuck you tumblr for eating my ask.

second of all. *raises hand as high as it can go* I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHERE ADA IS STICKING THAT TENTACLE!!!!!

Thank you so much for resending this! I was so mad Tumblr ate it. I had the forethought to save it specifically so I wouldn't lose it and Tumblr laughed in my face.

Anyways, Hiiiii!!! Thank you for being the first person that took me up on my "subtle offer" to ask me about where it's going. The people need to know!

So it is my humble head canon that all Cybertronians have a transformation seam on the roof of their mouths that leads directly into their brain casing. It's typically reserved for medical access only such as for surgeries that require accessing the processor from below instead of through any of the other access hatches that can be opened up.

Most Cybertronians don't even know they have this seam, but Ada knows. She designed Cybertronian frames. She's the one that put the seam there! She designed them with it to make repairs, maintenance, and study of their (the quintesson's) creations easier.

However, she did not anticipate Meter or marrying a freaky little bot that likes it when she drinks charge out of his processor. She can manually open up the seam and use it to access his cranial casing. They use it for various situations ranging from more intense interface scenarios or just because Meter likes it.

@archie-sunshine drew this incredibly helpful visual aid that I am very normal about to show off the mouth seam where Ada's tentacle is going in through his helm vents, wrapping around his processor and exciting through the mouth seam until it pokes out of his mouth.

Also since in your original ask, you asked for any extra Ada fact I wanted to share, I wanted to still share something even though Tumblr bugged out.

So tonight's miscellaneous Ada fact is that she absolutely loves organic life and has visited Earth many times in her travels around the galaxy. She first started visiting long before humans were anywhere close to coming on the scene, but she's visited more frequently since she found out about human kind. She's fascinated by them.

Please keep the asks coming if y'all want to know anything else about Ada! I absolutely love talking about her and I am slowly but surely working through the asks already in my inbox!

Do you ship BartKon or Timkon or something else? Really, who do you ship Kon with? Maybe I want to hear all your ships

Just say as much as you want really

there's evidence for both my bartkon and timkon affinities on this blog (and the much rarer, most refined of timbarts)

the truth is i like pretty much any ship as long as its got an interesting dynamic to play off of (and usually comedy potential) and kon is a great character because he has an interesting dynamic with basically everybody

the yj crew in general has kind of a perfect blend of defined characters and interesting dynamics that could create all kinds of cool story potential, romantic or not. but vis a vis Romances Specifically..... hold on you've got me thinking about this now im gonna do a thing one sec

ok now that ive successfully pepe silvia'd this

cissie and anita are such perfect foils for each other man.... if yj 98 picked back up where it left off, i think anita's parents should be aged up again pretty quickly, but in the interim i would love to see these two forced into a caretaking duo

anita + slobo, self explanatory. nobody knows whats going on with them except for them and i think that's beautiful. matching each others freak 4ever

i think most of them should have unrequited crushes on each other bc it would be funny namely the slobo>thad>kon clone crush conga line + the kon>bart>tim pining isoceles

greta queen of unrequited pining she is out here stalking she is out here threatening perceived romantic rivals she is ending the world she does it all and not having powers would not stop her

tim dating bernard is canon but i think it would be funny if they're both also into kon (plus ideally steph would lowkey be dating tim too + dating cass but that's batfam shit Whatever)

medium hot take i think kon and cassie should date sometimes bc they're best friends and love each other. just constantly walking the line of platonic/romantic and changing statuses every other month

love cissiecassie but i also think it's funnier if they've never kissed and just thought really hard about it and there was never a right time

cassie + rose self explanatory they should invent new and fucked up ways to murder each other romantically

i also want cassie chronically fumbling a rotating cast of civilian/villain/hero side characters bc she's got that peter parker syndrome where she can pull anybody and everybody but the universe is not on her side when it comes to being a good girlfriend (especially now that dc seems committed to tim no longer fumbling all of his relationships. gang we need a fumbler and cassie is right there)

i realize now i made a chart for romance but the only two i have actually dating is tim/bernard lol. the rest are either unrequited or "it's complicated"

......

Dca transformers au. Not one where the dca is a transformer or whatever but one where transformers come to earth and somehow stumble upon this weird situation where a human is seemingly dating a weird human-made robot that seems to be sentient?? And no one is really sure how to feel about it for several reasons

[laurrelise]

so did they ever explain to elliot that they were actually human beings (debatable) or did they just… let him die thinking that five was a really weird and socially inept child alien

i get annoyed when people make the like ‘humans are weird’ stuff with aliens (the ‘humans are space orcs’ stuff) and they do it more or less incorrectly.

for example, if they say that not being able to drink salty water is weird. because salt is actually super damaging to all living things as it can dehydrate them, even the most simple organisms have mensures in place for that not to happen.

but then, no one mentions the fact that oxygine is one of the most corrosive components that exist.

esp in pre cascade the way the comic handled alternia/ stuff is like what if it were weiirdddddd. what if they slept in goop pods and ate bugs and were raised by animals. but all the base stuff were mirrors to our culture. they got mirrors to everything we have, even if its a little more buggy and futuristic. theres no world building bc that wasnt the point, and anything abt alternia doesnt really hold up to scrutiny which is why friendsim/hiveswap can get kinda weird + retconning stuff presented in the comic.

[krumpkin]

We have weirder stuff than this going on, no wonder they don't seem to land a lot 😄

It’s oddly cathartic going through the art on my computer cuz I see how far I’ve come. Admittedly back then, it was really hard for me to be comfortable with my aus. Idk if it was just me, or how intense the Lu fandom could be, but I always wrote my Zelda aus in the way that others wanted, not how I wanted it, and it was hard for me. You can see it with old lbl really well and I truthfully wasn’t comfy with it cuz it really wasn’t what I wanted. I kept changing the plot to appease others cuz people were so VOCAL about their distaste for things and it was super hard on me, which makes sense why I gave up on old lbl and rebooted it. I can honestly see the same thing with TCOD which could explain some things, and it’s nice to know that I’m more confident in my stories and allowing myself to be more and more self indulgent with my stories and aus. I def have to thank Love at Twilight for that, and for my friends who encourage me with everything I do :)
