At least it looks like Skywarp's having a pretty good time (besides the whole messed up warping situation,) meanwhile Starscream is just perpetually stressed the entire time lol

Not true! Starscream's getting along with some of the guys!

Starscream's got intel, and Prowl wants to hear it. Finally someone who takes Starscream's conspiracy board seriously!

Wheeljack woulda got along with Starscream, because Wheeljack believes in giving everyone a second chance. Plus they can do science together! (Tho wheeljack's still like, dude really uncool of you to shoot skyfire that one time :/)

Also I think the Aerialbots would think Starscream is cool, they are essentially younglings and don't know a lot about seekers, since all of the Autobots are either grounders or civilian class flightframes. It would be neat to hear about Vos and other aspects of Cybertronian life from a different perspective I think.

A bunch of body swap AU sketches! Nothing in particular going on lol

Different styles and brushes because I very slowly worked on these in different days xD

Figured out how I wanted the lens of truth to react to them! I don't love how I represented it tho but oh well

[nyerusnova]

Imagine if dragons were real. And there weren't a lot of them, but each one was capable of destroying entire cities. Some could burn them, some had poison breath, some could freeze, etc.

Imagine if everyone had to pay them a tithe. To keep them from reducing you to ruin. And if you paid, sometimes they'd hold back. And sometimes they wouldn't, because no one could hold them accountable for their lies or betrayal.

How would you feel about those creatures? How would you feel about the people who worshipped them like gods? Who insisted that we actually needed the dragons. That the devastation they caused was good actually.

Anyway this post is purely hypothetical and definitely isn't about the oligarchs at all.

thinking about the way ghost doesn't hesitate to start killing shadows when graves betrays them but soap only takes one hostage

you can almost hear the voice in his head telling him it doesn't have to be this way; they can still talk it out

"i'm calling shepherd"

his first instinct when confronted with betrayal is to play it by the books: to go up the chain. that goes against everything we've seen him do. he bucks authority at every chance except for the one time he's confronted with the barrels of his allies' guns

he wants a peaceful resolution; for the first time we've ever seen, he doesn't want violence to be the answer. there has to be another fix, a solution that doesn't end with him killing the same men he's been working with; his friends

nothing's happened yet

it doesn't have to go this way

but ghost has been betrayed before. he knows the way this ends; either with him six feet under or his enemy

he doesn't hesitate

it's only when they knock alejandro out that soap shoots; when they spill the first blood and cross a line they can never come back from

only when ghost orders him to run and he has to cover his retreat

and somewhere along the line, between civilians’ screams and taunting voices, between his shaking breath and ghost steady in his ear, that naivety is stripped away; his trust turned to teeth that he uses to sink into throats of men he'd have given his life for

"be careful who you trust, sergeant; people you know can hurt you the most"

he's learned the price of trust

just like ghost did

but unlike ghost, he has someone to guide him through the aftermath

"good advice, It"

When space whale design so good you can't just steal it to your own cosmoopera story so you have to draw your first fanart in years and revive your tumblr art blog to post it

[other version and image description under the cut!]

Ezra version ♡

[ID: A horizontal artwork showing Exra Bridger from season 2 of Star Wars: Rebels and the group of space whales, Purgil. The purgil are floating in space and one of them, closest to the viewing point, is positioned so that its eye coincides with one of Ezra's eyes. Their eyes are shining teal blue. Ezra is depicted in a somewhat abstract way, he stands waist high and the space behind him, but behind the whales.

In the second version of the image, Ezra is in the foreground, while the Purgil is only in the background. He is standing and holding his lightsaber, looking somewhat lost in thought. ]

Adler programming Bell to believe they don't smoke so he can use the excuse of a smoke break as a means to get away from Bell for a few minutes either just as an actual break or to do things Bell can't know about but Bell imprinted on Adler like a baby duckling and wants to follow him everywhere so in reality Adlers smoke breaks just consist of him silently smoking a cigarette outside the warehouse as Bell stands like 5 feet away from him

Thinking about this line from the Transformers Annual. Instead of saying “me!” or being defensive, Bumblebee says “nice people”—even though perhaps back in the time Optimus and Pyra were talking about, Bumblebee was likely being genuine. However this line denotes that at least at this point in time, saying things like that is a conscious decision to be “nice”. It’s a conscious facade, and part of why Bumblebee works so well with Starscream in phase 2–they’re both stuck between who other people perceive them as, and who they are and become as they heal post war. As they do their best to unite neutrals, autobots, and decepticons, or colonists and cybertronians. Part of why they both end up failing to lead is BECAUSE their reputations precede them in such a way, but that doesn’t mean they can’t still push towards their wish to see Cybertronian become home once more, and being able to be themselves and rest with each other. Bumblebee and Starscream are a lot more alike than many people—both within and outside of canon—think.
