the funniest meltdown ive ever had was in college when i got so overstimulated that i could Not speak, including over text. one of my friends was trying to talk me through it but i was solely using emojis because they were easier than trying to come up with words so he started using primarily emojis as well just to make things feel balanced. this was not the Most effective strategy... until. he tried to ask me "you okay?" but the way he chose to do that was by sending "👉🏼👌🏼❓" and i was so shocked by suddenly being asked if i was dtf that i was like WHAT???? WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME?????????? and thus was verbal again

“Thoughts about the concept of this connection between all the Terrans”!?

Very curious now 👀

SO BASICALLY.

The concept is rather simple right. Telling this for the people who didn't watch Earthspark. You feel something -> everyone else feel the same thing. And this connection ties two humans and five Cybertronians. Simple.

But the IMPLICATIONS. It's all fun and stuff when the connection is about feeling someone being happy. But the moment you start to think about other emotions? That's a nightmare.

What about fear? Embarrassment? What about boredom? Boredom doesn't sound bad but imagine. Your sister wants to talk about her special interest. You don't even understand it but you are trying to be supportive and polite so you listen to her anyway. Except - the whole family knows what you actually feel.

The concept of emotional connection is a horror story material. There's always a whole lot emotions in your head. You can't do something embarrassing without all your siblings immediately knowing about that. Good chunk of privacy is just GONE. You fucked up and now ashamed? Everyone felt that. You saw a big spider and it gave you a tiny heart attack? All your siblings know.

You have a tough time and feeling down? All your brothers and sisters suffer from it. And you know it. And they know it. So they all grow tired of you constantly ruining their mood. And you can feel them starting being annoyed. But you can't turn off your own emotions can you?

You have a crush? Every. Each. One. Of your brothers and sisters. Can feel. Every time you're fucking horny. If it isn't a disaster then what is it? I would go insane if I had to live like that.

Moving to the more..physical territory.

Are you sure humans and Cybertronians have all the same emotions? What about the emotions humans don't have? What about Cybertronians feeling something and humans being absolutely unable to process it because he don't have the part of the brain responsible for that?

Or perhaps Cybertronians getting dysphoria because they keep experiencing the feelings they weren't built for?

Oh and. Can your siblings feel when you are in pain? Because if they can then you probably don't want to make fighting with evil forces your every day routine.

And you definitely don't want your enemies knowing about the connection right? Because those are war criminals. They would not hesitate to use it. They would rather quickly figure out that in order to disable the whole family they just need to get one person and then damage them REALLY bad. And humans are reeeeeaally easy to damage.

The show doesn't go that far of course. But it could. Easily. Just imagine.

I refuse to believe Bobby Nash died. The whole 118 survived 8 seasons of nonsene with the most unbelievable last minute saves. I mean did we see his body? No. And they didn't give it back for a while. Maybe he was still alive when he collapsed but noone could check through the door. And when the lab guys (or whoever collected him) found him they took him to area 51 to experiment on him and find out why he survived.

And what about the funeral you ask? They gave back fake ashes!

Believe me next season he will break free of the cell where they keep him and the 118 will take down the people who took him with the power of friendship.

I mean if there could be a baby in a pipe than Bobby can be immune to a deadly disease.

I refuse to believe he died. They can't do this! I refuse!

its actually beginning to annoy me that whenever anyone even mentions the 13th doctor all you hear is "she was a good actress but the writing was awful". it just gets old bc theres no actual discussion there and honestly i dont think the writing was anywhere near as bad as people are saying. are there issues w her seasons? definitely. but it's the same w every other season of dr who this is a very goofy show lmao. but it feels like people dont even want to give her a chance and are just blinded by nostalgia (or misogyny). its the same w 15- dr who has been branded as "woke" so no one gives it a chance. pisses me off bc you cant even have a proper constructive discussion about the show’s flaws because weirdos who dont even watch the show will spin it into some weird narrative abt the gay agenda. im so tired man

What really gets me about PeteKenta this week (and by that I mean that it causes me emotional damage), much more so than in the episode before (or in the whole of season 1 even though the seeds were already there) is how emotionally careless Pete acts towards Kenta (and the mission against Tony but maybe that's for my PeteChrisWay post). And it's all such a mess -- their shared past, their individual traumas, their current preoccupation with second chances -- that I can't even blame Pete, even if I'm fully on Kenta's side here.

Pete treats (and, let's be honest here, this isn't even the first or fifth time) Kenta as an afterthought. I know he means well and that he's driven by trying to make amends for something that was never even his fault to begin with. I also understand that with the way things are right now in canon, his feelings for Kenta were always platonic (even though that makes the one kiss they shared kind of questionable in retrospect because at the very least he was acting very inquisitive, inviting even) which is fair enough. I wish they'd kept the whole "the one that got away" angle because it feels so much more realistic to me than the revelation that all this time Pete was himself secretly pining after Way.

(adding a sprinkle of gifs to this post because clearly I'm not suffering enough already)

The secret pining COULD however at least partially explain why Pete never put a stop to Kenta's one-sided pining either. Because he must always have known. He can repeat the "he thinks of me as a brother" line a hundred times, but he's a telepath. Kenta and he kissed, and every time they've since met and touched, Kenta's thoughts are very obviously all but screaming his longing at him.

And yet Pete has never said anything -- either to spare Kenta's feelings or (judging by how he handled his secret crush on Way) because he found the situation to be overwhelming. Again, I don't blame Pete in the slightest, it's not like he had an emotionally healthy childhood to learn how to approach these things. I don't even blame him for the third possibility: that Kenta's crush is a very useful thing for him to keep around, especially since in the past it's kept him out of Tony's reach (plus, feeling wanted when your own love is unrequited probably feels very nice too).

There's no way Kenta would have let him leave over and over again if it wasn't for his feelings (and remember, Kenta never extended the same courtesy to any of his other brothers until much later). Unrequited or not, not addressing the elephant in the room left Kenta in limbo for years. He's kidnapped children for Tony, probably even killed for Tony, yet as soon as Pete starts leaning into Kenta's longing for him, Kenta can't bring himself to stop Pete (much less harm him or rat him out to Tony) -- which is a really convenient secret weapon to have in a fight against someone as ruthless and powerful as Tony. It's not even deliberate manipulation but pure self-preservation. Babe and Jeff and Charlie and Way have all learned to survive on less than that. It's about time we see the damage that Tony caused in Pete.

And not only that. I think now we also get to see that Pete doesn't know or understand Kenta nearly as well enough as he believes. He literally asks the go-it-alone guy to not go it alone when that's kind of his whole thing (not to mention that OF COURSE Kenta will do the thing for him and not care for the consequences -- it's all he knows to do to earn appreciation). He's essentially leaving Kenta on stand-by, not like the brother he claims to be, but like a thing he can just pick back up whenever it's most convenient for him. And he deals out praise to Kim while openly reprimanding Kenta in the next sentence -- which ironically is such a Tony thing to do because it keeps Kenta small and loyal.

Pete is so willfully blind towards Kenta's feelings and to who Kenta is as a person that it makes him look like a total dick here. And the thing is, his defence doesn't even hold up: you wouldn't treat your brother like that either, someone you claim you share a bond with. Hell, if Pete treated Kim that way -- someone who's only marginally involved -- Kim would surely let him have a piece of his mind. But Kenta has learned to suffer in silence so why bother changing the status quo (and never mind that the status quo was Tony)?

As things are right now, Pete's allowed to have priorities (currently these priorities lie with neglecting everyone's safety by dicking down Chris on every imaginable surface in his condo while not even using a secure password on his private computer) while all Kenta is allowed to do (all that he KNOWS to do) is switch masters from Tony to... what? a very absent Pete?

I'll always love PeteKenta, and I'll always love the could-have-beens from Pit Babe Season 1, but with how things are playing out right now I either need Kim to put Pete in his place (good) or Kenta to walk away and leave Pete on read (even better).

I love your take on Crowley!

I know that the early, non-Diasomnia stories aren't really your thing, but are you reading the novels at all?

I have been following some of the fan translations and the second book seems intense! Would love to hear what you think about them.

thank you! 💚💚💚 I'm not really sure why you think I don't like the earlier arcs though, I love pretty much all the characters and their storis! (I think 5 and 1 are my favorite of the past episodes, though 6 infected me with the Shroud brainrot something fierce.) I just...ESPECIALLY love diasomnia. :') but there is room in my heart for all of these dweebs! like, who among us is not just as ride-or-die for Adeuce as they are for us.

that said, I don't really follow the other adaptations like the manga (aside from a dip-in just to see the new Yuus) or the novels, though I keep meaning to check them out! I do like seeing the differences between the different forms of media, and how certain things get adapted one way or another! but alas, time/a lack of accessibility stands in our way more often than not. :( someday...someday I will have time to consume all of the media...

Was thinking about fnaf redesigns earlier today (or yesterday?? Idk I was busy being sick) and remembered this Monty redesign I made at some point. It’s kinda old and imperfect but I still like it enough to post. It’s also technically part of an au/rewrite for either Just security breach, or the entirety of fnaf. I love him and Honestly? I’m Kissing him on the mouth

I think motorcycle Transformers are cool and I want more of them, but I also don’t like when they make female Transformers motorcycles as like, an excuse as to why they’re smaller and slimmer than the male characters. Not that a female bot can’t be a motorcycle, it’s just that it feels like that scenario happens too often with motorcycle bots

I think the solution is that we need more male motorcycle Transformers. The only ones I know of are TFA Prowl and Thrash, let’s expand that list a bit more
