Ratchet, least biased bot known to the galaxy

[janelovespineapple]

ROTB bumblebee reacting to having a crush on human reader

-hes in denial at first

-he did not expect to like someone that is a completely different species from him

-still acts the same around you, but you noticed that he was hanging around you more often

-whenever you guys are talking he would definitely be more shy or playful

-if I'm being honest I don't think he would confess right away.

-don't get me wrong he really wants too but he does not know if you'll like him back (bc he's literally a robot) and he doesn't know if Optimus would approve

-if he does talk to Optimus about it, eventually Optimus would be okay with it. at first Optimus did not approve because "they aren't planning on staying on earth for any longer" or "it won't work out."

-eventually if you prove your loyalty and earn his respect to the autobots he would be fine with it.

-he does not want to put you in danger

-during the fight with scourge he always kept a close eye on you to make sure you are okay

-if he does confess he would take you somewhere private and quiet.

-he just wants to enjoy your presence

-you can tell something is up by the way he avoids eye contact and struggles to say the right words, switching back and forth on the radio

-he decides to play ur favorite love song then uses a line from it.

-if u don't understand he will have to be more direct and just use a confession quote from a movie

-he's totally nervous while doing this and hopes you will say yes. but whatever happens is up to u

Bots going throught strong food confusion probably hear the kids strong opinions daily considering three of them different countries and stuff

Jack: I mean we can eat anything but the big question is Should you thought?

Miko: Sounds like someone with food allergies would say

Jack: You maybe can eat raw fish without consequences but i rathet not risk salmonella or listeriosis

Raf: *probably has abuelita cooking lots of good food*Food is food

Funnily enough, Jack fusses over that because of fast-food experience and horror stories by restaurants and hospitals. Plus, he picked up on some of June's wellness habits, especially since Jack tended to get sick all the time as a young child. He warned Miko that botulism cases in the US usually come from improperly stored home canned food or the gas station nacho cheese sauce.

Miko came from Japan, so she had several culture shocks to jump, especially with food. American dining portions are huge since they're a very big (pun intended) on leftovers. Taking food home to eat later is deeply ingrained. It's common for Americans to eat out, but Japan is the opposite. Another thing that annoyed her was the advertising, but now she jokes that the pictures are tastier than the true product. And the amount of meat! It astounded her how much fucking red meat Americans like to eat. She deeply misses having a konbini because the American equivalent isn't the same, especially since the safety standards are different.

Raf can only be trusted with boiling water and ready meals since the girls and women in the Esquivel family shoo him out. He's familiar with ground pits since barbacoa is on the menu with family gatherings. Raf has excellent swiping skills as his siblings and cousins have the strength to shove him. He teams up with his sister as she does distractions, and he snatches away the good stuff.

So yeah, along with the 'Can you eat that?' game, the Autobots play '20 Questions' on preparation, ingredient acquisition, and cooking.

Supermarkets and farms are a Twilight Zone to them. There's food with different names to differentiate sizes, parts, and colors. (Arcee had thought the kids were messing her with broccoli and cauliflower.) Earth's varied languages add more to the confusion. Humans can eat rocks, poisons, and mold. There are perishable and non-perishable foods. Food that eats other food. Food that improves soil composition. Food that plays niche ecological roles. Food that's only about status. And choices, so many choices. A ridiculous number of choices in an American supermarket. Oh, and humans have a passionate love affair with cabbages and nightshade. Or with just plants in general.

Arcee started it as a joke, but now all the Autobots ask the resident humans if they did their "cabbage runs" and "picked up their posions" (aka grocery shopping with a play on the English idiom: "pick your poison." Yes, they have been told the meaning. No, they don't care because it makes so much more sense to them, especially with the nightshade and spices consumption).

Transformers

I saw this comment on a video where the creator was talking about Nightshade (adorable autistic baby) and defending them. And let me just say this is one of the stupidest takes I ever heard.

There's so many characters in Transformers who are confirmed to be apart of the LBGTQIA+ community. Case in Point: KOBD, a canonically gay couple made up of Knockout and Breakdown two cons who adored each other. And then we have Megatron who doesn't possess a straight bone in his body, like seriously the way he acts towards Optimus? They're divorced and Bee is their son. And the bi rep with Rattrap who mentions having ex girlfriends and clearly has a thing with Dinobot . More gay rep with Tailgate and Cyclonus another canon gay couple. The Trans Rep with Ratchet and Acree. Dinobot being in a queer relationship with Rattrap. (I forgot what the I mean right now). Whirl is 100% a chaotic Ace who enjoys shipping his friends and spending time with his daughter Whirl and just being himself. Strongarm and Windblade in SG? Jetfire and Starscream in any universe? Acree being a lesbian in the comics? And this is just the tip of the iceberg. Transformers is just full of LGBTQIA+ characters. Nightshade being enby isn't brainwashing your kids or ruining Transformers. If you genuinely believe that then you aren't a real Transformers fan and should look in the mirror when you wonder what's wrong with Society.

Brrr. Thinking about how Optimus pushes Smokescreen wanting to learn under asides him in favor of Jack teaching him , Acree rolling his optics at his excitement that the forge could be used as weapon (which is pretty funny in retrospect since Ultra Magnus began using it as weapon as soon as he got his servos on it but I'm pretty sure nobody is pointing out that he using something ment for healing as weapon and the fact that Smokescreen shown to know about these artifacts ) , how the rest of the autobots were excited about going home while Smokescreen is literally like "but I just got here" with everyone else ignoring his statement. International or not there definitely a pattern of the autobots dismissing what Smokescreen thinks with the forge example is bring Acree dismissing his idea that the forge could be used as a weapon despite fact the show have shown that Smokescreen does in fact know about these artifacts so it pretty funny of Acree saying that it not type of hammer when it indeed been shown by Ultra Magnus that it could be that type of hammer and that she saying in front of someone who probably been teach about all the artifacts uses by Alpha Trion. I know its purpose is a joke that Smokescreen is this navie rookie that doesn't know that the forge isn't a weapon but are telling me that the dude that work under Alpha Trion wouldn't know that the forge isn't a weapon and isn't purely used for fixing things oh please. He knows something that the rest of the autobots don't that a hammer can still be used to smash people

‘pass through fire’ musical cue when keyleth turned into an elemental during the thordak fight my beloved <3

missed potential with giving optimus the ability of flight and NOT letting him act like a jetpack for the autobots, THINK ABOUT!

[darkcozyforest]

I JUST REALIZED THIS IS MATTHEW

This whole album is a bop and had me 😭

Especially this one and Circle the World

[witchofthesouls]

I think June Darby falls into the same vein as Elita as: it doesn't matter who she ends up with, she is pussy whipping and pussy training that mech.

Optimus? Already leans towards being a service switch. Likes taking care of people, and is willing to top and bottom to do it.

Megaton? Dom, but definitely willing to bottom for the right motivation. Likes his partner to be just as fierce as him.

Soundwave? I've read your Oceanside fic I know what she does to him regardless of universe.

Oh, hard agree. And it's great because it could be a really great relationship with the right circumstances/AU or end really messy/Bad Ending/Dead Dove: Do Not Eat for the same reasons.

June has the personality and traits that can mesh well with so many characters and could have led to a lot of interesting dialogue and interactions as a baseline human.

But I really do lean into Other lineage, the 'Primal descendants' idea, and cyberization to even the playing field or explore something that caught my attention or a thing I wish I could have read.
