Look, I rewatched all of Bravern to try and make more sense of it now that I know plot twists and stuff and honestly how does Lewis never ask anything about the cockpit that he was in for four seconds. I think he should mention it. I think he's allowed to talk about it.

part three of me losing my mind over the tfone storyboards because i somehow completely missed the ones zhi kang posted for optimus vs megatron and the one where the quartet were friends from the start (guest appearance ASTROTRAINNNN THE GOATTTT) and buddy i have two things to say about these storyboards: OW, FUCK? and ohhhh my god of course orion's a little bit of a geeky nerd.

i mean come on, frat boy coded though he be, it takes a certain mettle to consistently risk your life for some data records—a mettle i dub the unquenchable thirst of history nerds. he definitely knows there's a constellation out there with his name.

but back to the angsty one (obviously). MOTHERFUCKER I DID A REDRAW FOR A SCREENCAP OF MEGATRON'S EXPRESSION WHEN OPTIMUS CAME BACK WITH THE THOUGHT IN MIND OF "i wonder if megatron was briefly happy his friend returned under all those conflicted emotions before he realised that what came back was a prime" and youre telling me he was gonna call him by his fucking name? dawg. dawg im done. dawg i cant do this no more.

AND THEN TO MAKE MATTERS WORSE, IN THIS STORYBOARD, AFTER MEGATRON'S DEFEAT OPTIMUS STILL OFFERS MEGATRON A HAND? OF FRIENDSHIP? OF REDEMPTION? OF A FUTURE TOGETHER? yeah that's the "i can fix him" mf i know. which hurts EVEN MORE knowing that what ended up in the final cut was optimus resigning himself to the fact he's already too far gone. daaaaaaWWWWWGGGGGGHHHHHHH.

i also REALLY LIKED the idea of the scene where megatron speaking to the people was with optimus PRESENT as opposed to when he's dead because in showing that optimus ALLOWS megatron to speak to the people and ALLOWS the people the decision of following another leader or remaining in iacon is just. so optimus ykwim. he may disagree but he won't silence it and i feel like that's the important differing factor he has as a leader compared to sentinel which megatron fails to see because he's too blinded by the title of "prime" affixed to what used to be his friend. he probably just sees optimus as just another false prime despite him literally carrying the matrix, chosen by primus himself, maybe because optimus could never live up to the expectations of what megatron once believed the core of a prime. a prime that now belongs to a past which was torn to shreds by sentinel
