love thinking up the most nothingburger headcanons ever

[holographic-mars]

YOU FOOL. YOU ABSOLUTE BUFFOON. YOUVE FALLEN RIGHT INTO MY TRAP

So anyways, thinking about how Cosmos is a very affectionate drunk and when he gets drunk around Soundwave he’ll start rambling about how beautiful and smart and wonderful he is and how insanely in love Cosmos is with him, and its super lame and embarrassing and makes Soundwave giggle bc damn. This guy is sooo lame and it’s really cute.

At some point they end up around the Lost Light crew and after shift Cosmos goes drinking with some others (cdrw, tailgate, nautica, lotty, others, etc etc) and he gets a little too drunk and accidentally starts talking about how crazy stupid beautiful Soundwave is. Eventually Soundwave, followed by meggy, roddy, rav, Magnus come into the bar and everyone is trying to shut cosmos up bc nobody knows they’re together and doesn’t want Cosmos to embarrass himself or say anything that’ll screw up his friendship with soundwave. Cosmos, seeing that Soundwave is with professional company, quickly shuts up bc he doesn’t wanna embarrass soundwave. Or at least he tries to shut up.

It works as well as you’d think. They approach the table, Soundwave quickly notices cosmos is drunk (and staring at him like a sad desperate puppy) and has to take a moment to stop himself from giggling before casually suggesting that Cosmos retire for the night because he’s clearly had too much to drink (ravage, already knowing this is going to go horribly, decides she needs a drink).

Cosmos clumsily (and eagerly) agrees and stumbles out of his chair, before telling soundwave how smart he is for the suggestion . Soundwave thanks him and asks if he needs someone to help him get back to his hab. Cosmos says no, and then tells soundwave hes the smartest mech he knows. And the prettiest. Soundwave thanks him again, amusement coloring his field. Nautica starts hushing cosmos, tailgate and rodimus are laughing behind their hands. Meg and Magnus look horrified.

Cosmos realizes his error and drunkenly apologizes which soundwave dismisses, and again suggests he goes to his hab and sleep. Cosmos nods, but then shakes his head and says he’d rather stay because soundwave is here, and not in his hab. Nautica and lotty quickly get up, grab cosmos, apologize profusely to Soundwave and drag cosmos away before he says anything else. Soundwave sighs quietly, not upset, more amused, but knows he’ll have to explain a lot to the shocked and horrified upper command of the lost light. Not that it’s any of their business, of course.

The next morning Cosmos (hungover and deeply embarrassed) apologizes to Soundwave numerous times for embarrassing him in front of others. Soundwave tips his head in amusement, has nothing to be embarrassed about, Cosmos is his courtmate and he won’t be embarrassed about that (ravage did damage control, telling megatron that cosmos worships the ground soundwave walks on and Soundwave deserves nothing less. Even if it’s just a stupid little autobot, Soundwave is happy and that’s all that matters. Megatron quickly shut up after that). He rubs gentle circles across Cosmos’ back as the poor mech nurses his hangover and pings lotty and nautica an embarrassed ‘thank you’ for rescuing him.

ANYWAYS TEHE. I LOVE THEM . ITS 4AM AND I WONT STOP THINKINF ABOUT THEM ❤️❤️💚💚🛸🛸🛸🛸

I did a little Frantic Fanfic session with @bookwermthings and @calmedgoose-blog yesterday!!! Here’s how the two fics I started turned out 💖💖💖

TITLE: too good to be true

FEATURING THE CHARACTERS: ravaxis starburner, commander cosmo

WRITERS: summer, goose!, bookwerm

RATED ALL AGES

Rav stumbled through the door of the fancy space party he had been invited to. And by stumbled, it was more of a... saunter vaguely downwards. He quickly righted himself, adjusting his cloak and scanning the room for familiar faces. As he observed the situation, he noticed an odd shadow in front of one of the windows. Wait, was it... oh, it definitely was.

"Commander Cosmo?" He asked, smiling lopsidedly as the galactic figure turned to him with a start, clearly not expecting to be noticed.

"Ravaxis Starburner. What

--------------------

are you doing here?" Commander Cosmo looked more confused than anything. Rav was slightly disappointed not to see a smile on his old friend's face.

"What, not happy to see me?" Rav teased, smiling big and throwing his arms out for a hug. Cosmo looked uncomfortable and backed away slightly.

"Look man, you can't be here...", Cosmo reluctantly replied, unable to peel his eyes away from the floor. Rav's smile dropped and his arms fell to his sides.

"What.. What do you mean? You'

--------------------

re not happy to see me? We're friends, aren't we?"

Cosmo flinched, and Rav wanted to cry.

"What's wrong, old pal?"

"You're dead, Rav."

What? This has to be a joke.

"You have been for a long time."

Cosmo never made jokes like this.

"You keep showing up in my life at different points, always having forgotten that you've died."

No, he'd been invited to this party! ... hadn't he?

" This is an especially inconvenient time. I'm getting married in six minutes. I love you, Rav, but it's time to move on."

Rav fell to the floor sobbing.

Cosmo placed a hand on his shoulder.

I'm sorry.

TITLE: the sounds of yesterday

FEATURING THE CHARACTERS: the jon, zer0

WRITERS: summer, goose!, bookwerm

RATED ALL AGES

The Jon fell to the bottom of the stairs with a crash, trying to scramble back up before the heavy door closed loudly. He turned around slowly, grateful for his glowing eyes that lit up his surroundings despite the dark. He shivered as much as a robot can in fear, tensing when he heard loud, clanging footsteps.

"Who... who's there? I'm the mayor of Biscuitville, and... and I'll get my guards to come get you! Now, please don't hurt me..." he said, putting up his fists like The Spine and Rabbit used to when they'd argue. Gosh, how he wished they were here. He didn't worry as much with his older siblings.

Eventually, the clanging footsteps came to a halt, before a tall automaton rose from the shadows and into Jon's vision. At least, into his vision before he was tacked into a hug.

"HI I'M ZER0!!! ITS SOOOOO GOOD TO HAVE A NEW PERSON DOWN HERE!!!!!! It get's lonely..." The robot said, turning deathly serious at the end before his childlike demeanor came back.

The Jon smiled, happy to meet his other sibling

--------------------

immediately jumping in to match his energy, The Jon wrapped his arms around Zer0.

"Hi Zer0!!, I'm *The* Jon, distinguished mayor of biscuit town.", The Jon pulled away from the hug and grabbed his suspenders, putting on the best mayorly smile he could manage.

"Wow! Thank you for your service." Zer0 responded with a salute. The Jon wasn't entirely sure he knew what a mayor was, but that wasn't important for an automaton anyway. He saluted back then quickly shot his hands to his sides, as a way of showing Zer0 he could stop.

"Things have changed around here..." The Jon looked around curiously at the familiar yet different surroundings.

"Oh, yes! We have all the musical advan

--------------------

cements that one might want for a basement, I believe. At least, I thought I believed that. Well, um. Want a tour?"

The Jon thought about it for a moment. It was nice to meet a new automaton.

"I suppose so!"

"Okay!"

Zer0 took his arm and led him around the small dark little area. There was a polished cinder block in front of them.

"This is my sitting step. It's where I sit and um, think."

"Ah," said the Jon carefully.

There was a really old television set up against the wall. It was plugged in, and static played on its screen.

"This is my super ultra HD surround sound TV!"

Zer0 chuckled.

"Get it?"

The Jon did not in fact, get it. What he was getting, however, was sad.

there was a scrap of fabric nailed to the wall. It could have been red, once.

"This is my stage curtain!" said Zer0. "It's where I practice all my singing and dance routines. Want to hear?"

Now this The Jon understood!

"I'd love to!" he said.

Zer0 sang Lyin' Awake, and as he did, The Jon felt tears come to his eyes. HOw long had this robot been down here?

Ravaxis!!!!!

there's a reddit thread out there where bunny says that when four was hit by the blue matter beam, he time traveled and ended up with rav, who helped train him to become commander cosmo. by the time he saves dwight in the song, he's already been cosmo for years.

and i think rav and cosmo has a deeply homoerotic relationship in those years they spent together. it wasn't romantic but it was incredibly gay. only after vice quadrant do they realize they're in love with each other.

also rav is trans and extremely buff thank you for your time

[steamanband]

Rav's like DUDE can you believe I'm related to this guy!?!?!?!?! And Cosmo's just... yeah. I can actually.

In collecting heroes from across the timeline do you think Cosmo met Rex Marksley and he was doing some absolutely ridiculous quest for no reason other than he felt like doing it and Cosmo is just like . . . Ok I see where this is going

Happy birthday @qpid >;33ccc

[lesbian-nautica]

cheetor/ravage hc pls pleease pleeease

Catboy boyfriends 🐈😺 ❤️

Cheetor doesn't like it when people dismiss him for being young, Ravage hates it when people dismiss him for being a cat, and there was a time that they had a pretty nasty fight followed by the intense realization that they were not actually mad at the other catboy. They went to cat therapy with Dr. Glit

Cheetor prefers being a cat, just by a tiny bit, so getting to just. Be a cat is great.

"I'm tired. Carry me?" And its just a cassette held gently in the mouth

They meet up in a place they refer to as "the litterbox" because they both think this joke is stupid and the place is a super decrepit shitty building. If anyone else ever referred to it by that name they would tear the building down, but it's perfect climbing real estate.

They are a more casual thing. They know each other well enough to know that they just aren't really ready for or into the idea of living together, and they both have busy lives, so they meet when they can.

IDW Cheetor does consider joining the party bus that is the lost light, occasionally.

Earthspark Cheetor as a cool new Terran that meets Ravage and they fall in cat love and this is how we get more cassette content in ES

Cyberverse Ravage straight up ignored the border and would just. Jump it and go bring his big cat bf a dead robomouse.

Can you fuck ing imagine a beast wars ravage. Can you.

IDW Ravage au where he doesn't die and gets torn in half and then goes "I need to get my life together" and moves to sanctuary station permanently and Cheetor also moves there for another reason because Cybertron is hell and they don't even realize the other is on the same ship for a WEEK. it takes Cosmos directly asking point blank like "i thought?? You two liked each other?? Are you fighting" for them to notice

If Rav is being moody and hiding in Soundwave Cheets sometimes will go loaf on top of the dock and lock all the cassettes in. Soundwave does not move him, he is a cat owner and has the curse of being a sentient bed now.

Day 19: Vice Quadrant

I love gay people

[cleverthylacine]

StarWave?

Before I answer, which Wave? I think you probably mean Soundwave but you could have also meant Shocky.

OK this is anon so you won’t know I asked.  I’ll just have to do both.

Starscream/Shockwave: maaaybe? could be fun! Mad science love affairs are always fun, and you know that each of them has at least one angle, usually more.  I would like to see this in a fic. I’m particularly fond of Shockwave discovers An Emotion fics so I am all for it.

Starscream/Soundwave: NOPE

This is almost NOTP for me, but it’s not as much of a NOTP as Cosmos/Soundwave is, so at least there’s that for ya?

First of all...Ravage/Soundwave is my OTP, except in Cyberverse where there’s no evidence Ravage ever existed. Now, Soundwave has two hands (and an immense number of cables even in G1 where you only see them a couple times). But I prefer that his other hand be attached to either Jazz or Megatron.

If they do it in Earthspark I will be very disappointed unless it’s a “Soundwave has two hands” situation involving both Ravage and Starscream.  I don’t know enough about ES Starscream to have an opinion on whether he is good enough for my space husband, but...Ravage/Soundwave is my absolute OTP, and in Earthspark, they have shown us all the cassettes giving up on Soundwave except Ravage. I know that it’s probably not going to happen because idiots will consider it bestiality despite the fact that she’s smarter than Bumblebee is, but that doesn’t mean that anything which replaces it will be easy for me to love.

In Cyberverse, Ravage doesn’t exist, but in Cyberverse, Starscream is the absolute worst, and Soundwave is as always the king mech of my heart. Plus, Soundwave and Hot Rod have hearts in their optics even at first when they’re still annoying each other, so in CV I ship Hot Rod/Soundwave, and yes, Soundwave has two hands, but CV Starscream is a Quint collaborator who tried to destroy their universe.  I like Starscream generally, but not this one.

In G1, I can’t see it.  Soundwave is deeply loyal to Megatron and Starscream keeps trying to murder him.

In Prime, people who write this are almost always Megatron haters and Autobot stans. And they make Soundwave helpless, which I hate. Megatron is pretty gross in TFP and he’s terrifying, but he respects Soundwave and they’re obviously very close. Every Starscream/Soundwave TFP fic I have ever read involves Megatron raping them both and usually getting one of them involuntarily pregnant, at which point they flee to Optimus and his amazing Autobot healing spike.  Gross. This makes me puke.

Megatron is an asshole when his brain is on dark energon, but he loves Soundwave at least as a friend, and since he was an ex-gladiator turned freedom fighter, I really don’t see Megatron raping anyone ever. Addictive, hard drugs make you do worse things than you’d ordinarily do, but usually they only make you do things completely outside your moral compass if you’re desperate to get them and someone else who has them is making you do that thing.

Ravage is canonically dead in TFP, but I like to think that Megs and Sounders both loved her and that this might even be part of what’s making Megs so whack, although he’s clearly not over his divorce from OP.

Anyhow, it’s possible that I could like this maybe if the people who wrote it weren’t always trying to make me pity them both and worship OP’s dick.

In IDW1, even Riptide, who is not on anyone’s top 10 IQ list, has managed to notice that Ravage was in a messy triad with Megatron and Soundwave and that Ravage is being forced to make a decision that Ravage does not want to make or acknowledge. The way Rav and Wave met in IDW is super romantic, and nothing shouts “broken triad” like telling your lover to go murder the other third of your triad when that person betrays you both and also you want to know which of you two she loves most.  Meanwhile, I don’t see enough interaction between Starscream and Ravage to have any basis for shipping them.

In TFA Soundwave is robot Pinocchio and not really Soundwave so who cares?

In the UT Soundwave is a Unicron agent and Starscream is desperately trying to be good so I don’t see that happening either.

[desecrated-host]

uhhhhhhhhhh that vice quadrant thingy you mentioned earlier? idk

YAY OK THIS ONWS GONNA BE . LONG

okay i have 2 explain some stuff first . blue matter is something peter walter 1 discovered , it's very important to the spg universe(s) . it's the thing that powers the robots. it has the capability to open rifts in space and time and it has before .

The thing that starts up the whole story is 2 characters from the becile family (which i havent explained yet) basically kidnapping rabbit to experiment on her blue matter core . 2 other characters (guy hottie(thats his actual name) and peter walter 2) break in to try and stop them, but a blue matter explosion fragments space and time , creating 2 universes . universe prime and universe omega . the explosion also sends a beam of blue matter into space .

universe prime

in universe prime , the blue matter beam hits peter walter the 3rd(refered to as IV from now on)'s space ship . he gets hit directly in the chest , the beam turns him into commander cosmo , granting him superhuman abilities (seen in the song Commander Cosmo) . he saves earth multiple times because hes been basically forced into this superhero role . he gets depressed and decides to trap himself in a star until it kills him . he goes into a rift in space (the achilles rift) and is brought to universe omega . his storyline continues in the universe omega section later dont worry about him for right now

a young peter walter 6 (refered to as VI from now on) starts working on the W.I.N.K project , a satellite built to find habitable planets (seen in Steamjunk) .

22 years later , the robots (the spine , rabbit , hatchworth) find W.I.N.K crashed near walter manor . he tells the robots about the green apple planet he found but lost because the space giant took it . they get VI to turn him into a spaceship and they go back into space to find the planet .

they go into space and find the space giant with the planet . the giant turns out to be a spg fan , they play some songs and he challenges them to a guitar duel , during the duel he just kinda shrinks down . into nothing . they get the planet back , W.I.N.K brings them home but decides to go back and live on the planet .

universe omega

before everything about commander cosmo , in this universe the blue matter beam doesn't hit IV's space ship . it barely misses , the crew starts studying the blue matter , and it leads to a domino effect on earth and humans make insane progress in technology , as seen in the song Progress And Technology (see what i did there. hehe) . the blue matter beam instead hits a russian space probe with human dna on it , creating cosmica/the daughter of space . cosmica finds IV's ship , and accidentally destroys it in her curiousity . she rescues IV from it , he's known as just the astronaut from here . they also fall in love btw theres like 5 love songs in the album abt them

back to commander cosmo . he seals himself in a dying star called the necrostar , accidentally bringing it back to life . just under 100 year timeskip , ravaxis starburner (character that hasnt shown up before hes new . hi rav) blows up the necrostar to free commander cosmo .

the astronaut and cosmica have been destroying moon bases and spaceships together . with help from a space militia , commander cosmo kills the astronaut and gets cosmica to realize Hey you cant let your boything kill people . it ends there but it DOESNT later on a fragment of the necrostar finds the astronaut's corpse and merges with it , creating the necronaut . the album then ends there for real this time . :3

[holographic-mars]

okok so this isn't exactly coswave related, but i love your soundwave sm. would you happen to have any hcs about soundwave and ravage and their dynamic?? btw i love your art and im eating it nom nom

YES LETS FUCKING GOOO you have no idea how much I love soundwave and cassette relationships so THANK YOU FOR ASKINGGG

Cassette and carrier dynamics are very unique and fluid depending on the mechs involved. Every carrier has a different dynamic, so it’s not always a “parent/child” “boss/grunt” or etc etc kinda dynamic.

The relationship between cassette and carrier oftentimes transcends our understanding of relationships.

For soundwave and his cassettes, the dynamic is very very close and friendly! They love eachother and protect eachother but there’s no designated caregiver—the role is often stepped into, so it’s very malleable and sort of depends on the circumstances. With that being said though, that doesn’t mean there isn’t a subtle hierarchy.

Soundwave was found by Ravage, Laserbeak and Buzzsaw in the Dead End and the four (Rav and the birds were already in a mutually beneficial arrangement) eventually formed a very strong bond. Ravage is kinda the head honcho—she’s not the boss per se (that title affectionately goes to Soundwave) but she ensures safety and security for the pack. Ravage’s approval is generally a MUST for anything to happen.

Soundwave rarely goes anywhere without Ravage. If Soundwave is present, it is an almost guarantee that ravage is somewhere close by. If Ravage isn’t available, Buzzsaw and Laserbeak will be (note: rumble and frenzy also have a strong bond with soundwave but they tend to be more independent from the carrier. They still love and protect eachother, but they’re speciality is more like the horrible roommates who help soundwave blow stuff up).

Ravage is a very tactile mech, believe it or not. She’s either wound around soundwaves ankles, perched on his shoulder, or in his lap. Touch was grounding for Soundwave during their time in the Dead End and old habits are hard to break (ie ravage refuses to stop).

Ravage grooms like a cat. She’ll wrestle soundwave to the ground to groom her face. The birds aren’t safe either. She’ll grab them out of the sky and sit on them to groom them. Rumble and frenzy are about the same size as Ravage (she’s a big girl) so she tackles them easy. Nobody is safe.

Soundwave has cat tendencies bc of ravage. His tape deck whrrs when he’s happy/content and it resembles a purr (he learned early on that it’s a calming gesture and an easy way to calm ravage down, later learning that it works for the other cassettes as well. Now it’s more subconscious than anything else). They also headbutt to show affection—a rare occurrence outside of their cassettes—but they’ll bump their head against the birds if they’re on her shoulder or gently headbutt one of the twins after a particularly difficult battle.

If Ravage is pissed off she gets petty. She’ll hide your stuff, she’ll tear stuff up, try to ‘accidentally’ trip you, etc etc. and honestly Soundwave can also get petty. They’re no better than she is. When they get into arguments it’s horrible for everyone around.

Small coswave note: ravage knew soundwave had a crush on cosmos before soundwave even did. She stalked cosmos obsessively and made note of every little way he acted around soundwave. Only the best for her kit (don’t worry, she begrudgingly approved eventually)

That’s all I can think of right now but yeah they mean. So much to me. THANK YOU FOR THE ASK I LOVE THESE AND ENJOY YOUR ART MEAL EEHEHE ❤️❤️❤️🛸🛸
