#Slimming Machine

[quibbs126]

So I made the helmet thing. And also I didn’t really know what to do with the background there, sorry. I still need to work on that

But yeah, I did the thing, maybe not the best the concept could be, but it’s something

To recap for people who didn’t see the original post, I mentioned that in seeing a short clip of Thor Ragnarok from an MCU video essay, I got the idea that the helmet would honestly work pretty well on an Optimus design. So that’s what I did here

And honestly? Yeah I do think the helmet works on him pretty well, basically the only thing I changed on the helmet was the crest, which I admit probably doesn’t look as good as it could. Give the design to someone who’s better at designing Transformers and I think you could get a really banger design out of it, at least head wise

Outside of the helmet, the design mostly takes from the Transformers One design, in part because it’s the same actor, and I generally know how to draw that Optimus and the style (well okay I can never get the faces quite right, among other things), and some other third thing I’m forgetting in the moment

But I don’t have a logical reason how Optimus’ helm would have changed, so let’s just say similar design and story, but not exactly the same as One

I also decided to give this Optimus face markings, because Thor had them in the movie and I thought it’d look cool. I was actually deciding between markings more like the Ragnarok markings, and Optimus’ markings from The Last Knight, since they’re similar-ish

I actually still haven’t decided which I like better, but I wanted to post this before the end of the night, so I chose the TLK markings. But here’s the Ragnarok ones for comparison

It’s just like face paint or something, not whatever’s going on with the ones in The Last Knight

Anyways, now let me yap about story ideas I got from the idea of Transformers in Ragnarok. I’ll put it under the cut for people only here for the design, but I’ve sacrificed my night for reading my required reading about 17th century London adultery shenanigans that I’ll now have to read in the morning, so you have to hear me ramble

Okay so I’ve sort of got two versions of a Ragnarok AU going on. First off I should note that TF One is going to generally be my basis on the Transformers side here, for aforementioned reasons

But basically my two versions are just: the TF One characters as the characters in Sakaar, and then basically some form of the plot of Ragnarok in Transformers

The former’s easier to get through, so I’ll start there, since it’s just assigning characters

Thor -> Optimus Prime/Orion Pax

Hulk (but also kind of Loki too?) -> Megatron

Jeff Goldblum guy (idk his name) -> Sentinel Prime

Topaz -> Airachnid

Valkyrie -> Elita-1

Korg -> B-127

I don’t think there’s much to explain there, other than the characters generally correspond to those movie counterparts. Optimus/Orion (I’m thinking his losing of Mjolnir here is probably equivalent to losing the Matrix, so I don’t know where the Orion situation stands) just got thrust into the gladiator pits, Megatron’s the champion, B-127’s a lower level gladiator Optimus befriends, Elita’s the one that got Optimus in the pits that’s besties with Megs and is probably depressed, and Sentinel and Airachnid are kind of just chilling and running the place

I said Megatron is sort of also Loki, but he really isn’t, it’s just that Loki has no one to take his place because Megatron would best fill his role with his and Optimus’ history, and Megatron’s already Hulk, so he’s kind of just been nixed from the story, with Megatron probably filling the gaps. Also I don’t know if Megs has a split personality thing going on like Hulk and Bruce, but if he does, it’s D-16

And then there’s the story that’s just sort of injecting Ragnarok into a Transformers story, one most similar to some sort of Transformers One sequel

Basically at this point, the Quintessons have already been defeated, Megatron sacrificed himself to do so, but now Unicron is rising as a threat, and Optimus lost the Matrix, somehow ending up on an alien planet and getting sent to the gladiator pits, in which he finds, much to his surprise, Megatron, who did not die, is the champion he’s sent to fight against

Oh yeah, I think this was another reason I chose the One continuity, because the Transformers don’t seem to have advanced space travel yet, so no one on this planet would know who these two are, and because it’s one of the few continuities where Megatron doesn’t have any known history as a gladiator

But anyways, Optimus was not expecting to Megatron here, and especially not alive when they all thought he died, but he figures quickly that since he got thrown into these pits against his will, Megatron must have also been, hence why he hasn’t told anyone that he’s alive. But the actual truth of the matter, as he learns after their initial match, isn’t as cut and dry

While yes, Megatron didn’t ask to become part of the gladiator pits, nor did he expect to have survived his sacrifice, at this point he’s staying there willingly; he has the power and general know-how to escape the planet if he wanted to, he just chooses not to. By this point, he’s grown at least somewhat aware of the harm that his actions brought to Cybertron with the war, and he believes that perhaps Cybertron would be better off without him there to ruin it. Not only that, but there is nothing and no one left for him there, outside of maybe Optimus, who’s currently here instead, so he’s better off staying on this planet, where at the very least, his violent tendencies don’t lead to mass destruction and fear, only entertainment

But that’s not to say his motives are entirely selfless or a punishment. He’s aware that going back to Cybertron would mean facing punishment for his actions, because a noble sacrifice was one thing, but being alive means he’d actually have to address those problems. And again, on Cybertron, he’d be entirely alone, due to his previous actions. And on this planet, no one knows his full past, and he gets to keep committing violence while being celebrated for it. He’s not really taking responsibility for his past actions, he’s avoiding them

But like before, that isn’t to say it’s entirely selfish either, it’s more a mix between the two sides. Ultimately, he sees him choosing to stay here as the best option for everyone; he can keep fighting while not terrorizing his planet, Cybertron can finally end the war under a better leader (Optimus), or at the very least the Decepticons will find a more effective leader, someone who might actually be able to put an end to the war. And Cybertron can all rest easy thinking he died, they’ll probably never find him anyways

It’s complicated with Megatron here, and how much of this is selfish and how much is selfless

But back to the story, Optimus and Megatron have their fight, after which Megatron requests him up to his chambers so that he can know what the heck he’s doing here and why he seemingly doesn’t have the Matrix, and they both generally get caught up on what the other’s been doing since the Quintesson invasion. Also, at the start of this when Optimus wakes up, and is able to fully process that Megatron is still alive, he’s probably very happy about it, much to Megatron’s surprise. Granted, that happiness is going to quickly sour as the conversation goes on

Optimus wants to find a way off the planet and back to Cybertron to stop Unicron, and Megatron rather quickly provides fairly decent directions on how Optimus would be able to escape, which Optimus then questions as to how he hasn’t broken out himself, since he’s still under the impression Megatron’s just as much a prisoner as him, to which Megatron tells him that he chooses to stay here, and he doesn’t plan on returning to Cybertron. If Optimus wants to stay, he’ll be happy to have him there; if Optimus wants to leave, there’s a way for him to escape and get back to save Cybertron. But what happens on Cybertron is no longer Megatron’s business, and he’s staying in the pits

And this likely leads to a blowout between the two, mainly Optimus because it’s now registering to him that Megatron basically just abandoned everyone after the Quintessons, and Megatron’s “death” was something Optimus took particularly bad, being the last one to see him before that, and he’s been under a lot of stress with the Unicron thing and their home is about to be destroyed, and his former friend who once planned to give up his life to save it now doesn’t seem to care, and quite frankly it all just explodes from Optimus’ mouth at this rate (though Megatron’s biting back, stubborn in staying here)

At some point they probably both calm down, and Optimus tries to convince him to go with him to save Cybertron, and likely he does eventually convince Megatron to escape with him and return home. Or Megs pulls a Loki/Han Solo and doesn’t initially return with the main group back to Cybertron, but later comes in bringing the cavalry. But regardless, he does eventually choose to return and face whatever music he has to when coming back. And I imagine Optimus having a “so please don’t be mad at me” exchange with Elita after returning on the topic of Megatron

Speaking of Elita, she and Bee would likely still be on Cybertron, basically preparing to deal with Unicron but also suffering at his hands, hoping Optimus is still alive somewhere, and if they know about the Matrix being missing, Elita’s probably desperately looking for it in hopes it’ll help them against Unicron

And I don’t think I have much more on the AU, I mostly kept repeating the Megatron stuff in my head because I liked it

I had a lot more to say on the latter idea, and it could diverge more from the two original movies I think, but I admit the former idea might have more to actually explore, considering everyone’s here and it isn’t just megop, as is my MO now

And I think I’ve covered about everything, so I’ll just stop here. At some point, I kind of forgot that this was supposed to be about the helmet thing, not gonna lie

tw body image it’s nothing serious at all but just in case. anyway now that my gym is closed i was going through my old pictures and realized my body looked the best and i felt the best when i ran every other day + did body weight/dance workouts and ate super clean because my mom had stomach issues and i was her moral support eating like an amish for a year

no-paperwork replied to your post "David wearing a kilt and tank top while dancing…"

So..Maybe.. Is there a version of this when, in the Night Press, Michael enters the dressing room and finds David dancing…?

@no-paperwork Oh, that would be utterly lovely. I could see Michael chuckling softly and watching in rapt attention for a few minutes before David notices him. He'd flush red under Michael's intense gaze, embarrassed and pleased in equal measure. And then David would grab Michael's hand and pull him into a dance, like the reverse of Aziraphale and Crowley...

warnings/tags:voyeurism ,degrading,toxic,small humiliation,choking,argumentative,implied consent,hair pulling,unprotected sex,praise

words:968

"Don't start this shit again." Colson said to you,taking his guitar out of the case. Colson and Slim were supposed to be rehearsing and you were there to keep them company. "Don't start what?" You asked,playing innocent.

"Wearing shit like that around us,you know we have to focus." He said,eyeing how much cleavage was showing through your shirt."Then focus,don't worry about me." You said,shrugging. He rolled his eyes,shooting slim a look. Colson sat next to him,Slim on keyboard and Colson on guitar.

You laid back on the couch,watching their fingers touch the instruments. You trailed your hand over your own body,watching as their attention turned to you. They looked at each other,then back to the instruments. They started the song and you immediately wanted to tease them more. You put your hand between your thighs,shifting in your seat.

Slims eyes went back to you,but colson shoved his shoulder,trying to get him to focus. They finished going over the song a couple times after a couple minutes. You tried to get up,but Colson pushed you down. "Fuck no." He said. "What?" You asked. "You're not getting up. Don't think we didn't see you trying to distract us. You just can't behave,can you?" He responded.

He got on top of you,pushing you against the back of the couch. "You're always acting like a slut." He mumbled,biting up your neck.  Slim sat next to you,his hands wandering up your body as colson left hickeys on you. Colson's hand went to your neck,pressing harshly. "You distracted me." He said again,pressing harder. "I'm sorry." You forced out,your breathing getting heavier as he pressed harder. He took his hand away,slim pushing you on your back.

Slim started to kiss you as Colson slid his hand down your shorts. He rubbed you through your underwear,slim muffling your moans with his kisses. Slim stopped kissing you,then Colson pushed you back down,laying on top of you. Slim sat in the chair next to the couch you and colson were laying on. "Fuck her. Teach her a lesson." Slim said. Colson nodded, "I think that's a good idea. You would like that,huh baby?" Colson asked you,you could only nod.

He grabbed your top,throwing it off of your body. He cupped your tits,kissing down from them to your stomach. He pulled your shorts and underwear down with a quick move. He hovered over you,giving you kisses. "You ready to pay for distracting us?" He asked,he hand between your thighs,feeling for your wetness. "Already wet,damn." He said. "Yes,i'm ready." You responded. "Wait,people are gonna hear." You tried to say,but he already entered you.

You closed your eyes,feeling yourself being pushed into the couch. His hand went back to your neck,almost leaving a mark. His thrusts got faster and you could now hear slims moans. Your eyes darted to him and you saw him palming himself. Your eyes went back to colson,his eyes darkened as he got more aggressive. Your eyes fluttered as he placed his lips back on yours. You couldn't help but moan into his mouth. He pulled away and you noticed slims breathing getting heavier from the corner of the room as colson's movements intensified. "You feel great." Colson praised.

You could feel his heartbeat on your chest,it was getting faster. "I'm close." Colson groaned. You felt him go deeper, a yelp escaping your lips. "Fuck,col." You moaned. Slim let out a line of "fuck" 's and your eyes went back to him. Colson sped up,pushing himself against you. "Oh my god." You moaned,your eyes starting to roll back. "I'm close." Colson groaned into your neck. You watched slim get up,walking over to you and colson. He kneeled down in front of you,still touching himself as all three of you got louder.

"Col,i'm gonna cum." You moaned. He grabbed your hair,pulling it as he finished inside of you. Slims moans were one of the only things you could hear in the room after colson finished. Slim got up,working himself as you finished around colson with a groan. Slims hand went up a down,more moans spilling out of him. "I'm gonna cum,open your mouth." He demanded. Colson pulled out slowly and you opened your mouth,your body twitching from the orgasm you just had.

Slim hovered over you,releasing himself on your face and in your mouth. "Fuck. Such a good girl." Slim praised. Slim walked away,coming back with a towel to clean your face. Colson walked up to you laid on the couch,sitting you up. "I love when you show us how good of a slut you are for us." Colson said. He leaned in,kissing you a couple of times. "You always take me so well,and you feel so good." He praised you. He grabbed your clothes,carefully dressing you.

After Colson got his clothes back on Slim reached for your hand,helping you up. "You're sore,huh?" Slim asked you.

You nodded, " I am." You responded. He held your sides,picking you up with ease. "Thank you."You whispered. "Of course princess." He reasoned. You laid your head on his shoulder and wrapped your legs around his body. Slim walked out with you,Colson following next to you. Slim walked you to the car,placing you carefully in the backseat. He kissed your forehead, "such a good girl."

Japan Moon lander survives lunar night

Japan Moon lander survives lunar night | BBC News

27 February 2024

Japan's Moon lander has survived the harsh lunar night, the sunless and freezing equivalent to two Earth weeks.

"Last night, a command was sent to #SLIM and a response received," national space agency Jaxa said on X.

The craft was put into sleep mode after an awkward landing in January left its solar panels facing the wrong way and unable to generate power.

A change in sunlight direction later allowed it to send pictures back but it shut down again as lunar night fell.

JAXA said at the time that Slim (Smart Lander for Investigating Moon) was not designed for the harsh lunar nights.
