baby says “frag” for the first time. drifts head slowly turns.

everyone starts running for their life

“‘I don’t swear in front of Spectra’, huh?”

“Oh PLEASE. Don’t give me that slag, you know exactly who you’re talking to.”

[earthstellar]

“My spark knows what it wants. Does yours?”

There was a point, before emergence, that they did try to make it work.

If anyone’s wondering where I’ve been, the answer was In The Hospital (as a patient this time, lol), but I am out of the hospital as of now and trying to catch up on a bunch of stuff 💖

Just had another faint down a flight of stairs, thankfully not as much damage as the last time this happened, but I had a good couple weeks of L1/coccyx spinal pain so we had to make sure I wasn’t too fucked up. Shoutout to the Radiology Department and the Porters, love y’all 💖

Got an occupational health assessment next week, sigh, but I’m not as fucked up as initially feared! So that’s a win. 👍

Been watching the new Gundam series, and holy fuck it’s great so far

Lobster Rodimus is my Shrimp Dip AU!

[earthstellar]

I just followed someone who asked a question about this AU concept, but I can’t seem to find the message again and since my laptop is fried I’m unable to open Tumblr on desktop to try to find it again 😭 The mobile app is not cooperating with me very well lol (my phone is old)

Whoever it was, please message me again; I’m happy for anyone to write or expand upon any AU ideas I throw out there! I’d love to hear anyone else’s ideas :)

Pathologic IDW Transformers AU Concept

This might be slightly niche, I don’t know. I think this game is popular enough to make an AU for it, lol 

But I got a minute to play a little Pathologic (Мор. Утопия) lately and my brain went “concept time” so here we go!!! 

For those who don’t know what the fuck Pathologic is, it’s an “oh shit the town has plague and it’s REAL BAD” game but it’s excellent 

There are three main characters, and this is massively simplifying things, but Pathologic is a Whole Thing so I’m just going to summarise very roughly here: 

1) Bachelor - Mostly a douchebag/privileged, but actually a doctor. Lots of medical knowledge. 

2) Haruspex - If you don’t know what a haruspex is, it’s someone who divines through manipulating organs of sacrificed animals. Some medical/anatomical knowledge. 

3) Changeling - Arcane magic lady. No or little (scientific) medical knowledge. 

All three do various forms of medicine to try to unfuck the town and the population of said town, but everyone (including them) are, let’s say, “not okay” so this is is difficult. 

So, the Transformers AU concept: 

The Bachelor is Ratchet, the Haruspex is Pharma, the Changeling is Velocity. 

The town that gets fucked by ultra-cosmic-plague is actually not on Cybertron, but is instead a small settlement on Paradron. 

This is to maintain the feeling of 1) everyone sort of having to show up in the middle of all this shit, so there is an element of finding their footing and figuring out what the hell happened and 2) the town in the game is fucked up and possibly trans-dimensional, and Paradron is canonically accessible only via space vortex, which has a similar kind of vibe to it. 

IDK I’m exhausted lmao but I just like the idea of space robot medics solving a spooky fucked up plague situation – Which they already did in the whole Delphi Arc in MTMTE, but I mean

The vibe of Pathologic is so deeply fucked, it’s genuinely hopeless and weird and I love it, and it would be cool to get a similar drawn out “oh shit we have to defeat the plague” kind of scenario with these three 

It’s not even necessarily the grimness or whatever, but it’s the funky borderline-supernatural shit approached in a fairly realistic way that I like the most about Pathologic, and Transformers has a bunch of cool arcane space lore that is sadly almost never utilised in canon very often 

It would be interesting to see how each of the three different types of scenarios in Pathologic would play out in a Transformers context:

Perhaps due to the arcane nature of this plague, Ratchet’s medical knowledge (as extensive as it is) can only ever be so effective. With his scepticism, he may miss critical signs  or lose certain opportunities to make actual progress towards any kind of true treatment or “cure”. 

Perhaps Pharma’s approach may be slightly more successful, as it uses arcane elements combined with medical knowledge, but at the cost of divining the cure in such a way that causes fatalities in and of itself. 

Perhaps Velocity’s methods of combining cultural knowledge of cityspeaking and reverence of the Primes may allow her to utilise more arcane elements to a greater benefit, but with such methods, is the outcome predictable or even guaranteed? 

I feel like there’s potential for an AU in here somewhere that I might write a little for someday, I’ll put it on my table of like 50 fics I never have time to work on lmao sigh

I'm using a translator. So I apologize for my limited writing.

I just want to say that I admire your posts, especially those related to health.

For personal reasons, I won't be able to study medicine or a similar field. But I'm excited to learn interesting facts about it. Thank you so much ❤️🫶

I’m sorry for replying so late! I’ve been so busy, and my second laptop just failed on me permanently, so I’ve been very slow to respond to anything. 😭

Thank you so much! <3 I’m so happy you enjoy my posts, particularly those about health/medicine, as it’s my field of interest and my profession— It makes me so glad I can share things I enjoy via fandom, and knowing people like to read it is so wonderful. 💖

I lost a few posts I was working on when my laptop died, but I am working on restarting them, and I hope to be posting more again soon! :)

Thank you again for your kind words! 💖💖💖

HUZZAH ASKS! Feel free to ignore any of these, I’ve just been wondering about it for the past few days.

Is Roddy being a supportive amica/uncle? I feel like he would do his best to help drift anyway he could whilst giving ratchet the stink eye the entire time.

You mentioned I think in the tags that existential baby (please please please name them) is abnormally quiet for their age- the heck IS their age and have you as the au maker thought of what said reason is?

I saw in the recent art that existential baby seems to have Drift’s optics, are there any other minor tells or clues that they’re his?

I haven’t spent enough time on Rodimus yet, but he’s more neutral than you think (but still supportive. He’s just also trying to be a good captain)

There are tells!

Fangs (siphoning cna is a strong survival feature) and white and black paint

Sparklings are already really quiet (they don’t need to scream and cry for attention and protection like human babies do).

Bitty is just taking an extra long time because he’s Missing Some Attention and actively refuses to get bigger. He’s not that old tho, after their carriage, they grow a LOT faster and then slow down

[earthstellar]

So it appears i am elaborating

As a paramedic, Ratchet's alt mode in tfp driving around Jasper is hilarious to me.

We usually know who is on what ambulance unit and where the other ambulances are. They have GPS trackers on them/on the ambulance's phone, so dispatch can see where they are. Jasper is a small town, so their EMS/Fire dept is likely small as fuck. So the first responders all likely know each other and what's going on.

NO ONE can track this weird ass ambulance. Dispatch has no idea where it came from.

The other medics in Jasper being like "what fucking unit is that" or "what THE FUCK." There's no department marking or star of life on Ratchet's alt's exterior, but it has lights and sirens. Which is fucking illegal.

The other first responders talk about the Mysterious Unknown ambulance that is OCCASIONALLY spotted like a fucking cryptid. It becomes an inside joke/urban legend.
