#squiggposting#this is why i gave up looking for idw megop fic years ago#and now i only read my friends' fic OR fic they recommend or i just write/read my own stuff#idk if my presence in the fandom has swayed more people to actual idw OP content. i havent checked lately#honestly more sad than ppl refusing to write coptimus is how they don't even write their OPs like idw op's personality#if you gave me like. an angry jock librarian with the loyalty of a puppy and impulsive anger issues then i would be fine#but everyone just does dockworker/librarian/whatever OP who's mainly just a Good Guy#which is like. inoffensive enough i guess#but if your problem with idw op is that he's a cop. then just make him not a cop and keep his personality#but no one does that. big thinks as to why#bc ppl either don't know what idw op's personality is or they don't like that his depression comes out as being distant or angry#squeaky clean optimus whose depression is just him being sad and forlorn ONLY. we cannot have him be flawed#or have his flaws/inner turmoil manifest in destructive ways/ways that make bad things happen
