For the random asks:

If you could add any other Transformer into TFP, who would it be?

Huh. Good question. Like, there is SO MANY good options.

Obvious choices are probably Jazz, Ironhide or Elita-1. I've been sold on Jazz and Ironhide ever since I first read Iron Deficiency With A Side Of Jazz Hands. And, I think, that Elita would be super interesting for Optimus and the others to play off of. Based on both TF:One and the Nextflix series, she's not afraid to call Oppy out on his BS and do her own thing if it becomes necessary, so that would be cool - especially in contrast to Ultra Magnus later on who follows the rules to a T. Honestly, bringing in anyone from High Command would probably be super interesting for the fact alone that it would give Optimus and Ratchet both more room to breathe.

Windblade would also have been interesting, I think. Both as an Autobot flier and the way that would have changed Autobot-Decepticon dynamics, but also as an outsider to the conflict who first had to choose a side. She could even end up doing her own thing (maybe after the Predacons are wiped out) and could become a neutral character with a very strict moral compass (in opposition to both Airachnid and Starscream's phases as neutrals who were morally grey at best).

Hot Rod could also be interesting, I guess, but only if you take out Smokescreen/majorly adjust him. Smokey is already extremely close to Bee regarding his role in the team (newcomer/young guy with something to proof and then he also starts scouting even though he was trained by the Elite Guard, not as a scout), so, introducing someone else in the same niche without changing anything would only make that situation worse. And even than you'd need to make sure that you don't just recreate the Smokey-Bee problem with Roddy.

But, just for personal indulgence, I also want to say the Minibots from G1: I don't know what Brawn, Huffer, Gears and Windcharger would have done, but I would have enjoed their presence nonetheless.

in fact, now i'm curious enough after all these asks that i'm gonna make a tagbait post: transformers fandom, please tell me what you think the rarest rarepair that you earnestly ship is. i'm talking 'this has no fanart no matter how deep into twitter and pixiv you dive' stuff. the ones you made up at 3am when you couldn't sleep and now they are real To You.

someone: hey I noticed this thing you did in your writing!

me, kicking my feet up flirtatiously: oh??? do you want to hear my thoughts on why I did that? do you want a play-by-play of the language choices in every related sentence? do you want an exhaustive breakdown of The Themes???

Ironhide is the Grunkle who happily gives the kids weapons but scolds them when they cuss.

Foremother, did my prayers arrive too late?

I don't know why, but I've been struggling with inserting video files to Tumblr. I've had to compress the videos but I don't enjoy the way the quality falls.

So until I find a solution, here's the speedpaint on YouTube for those who like to see the process :]

she was just a child :,(

This is my first time drawing them aside from Optimus so sorry if they look funky just wanted to draw something to maybe make someone happy.

Let's hope I was successful. And holy Meg looks so bad but with practicing I can learn to draw him better I'm confident about that.
