thinking about Bumblebee & Megatron today

just. ough. they could have had such an interesting relationship. because, despite everything and everyone pushing Bumblebee into being harsher and stricter, cruel, even, he tried his best to be kind and forgiving. he had good intentions when he ruled Cybertron, just like Megatron - but when Megatron took a more aggressive approach and insisted upon his ideals (which is the same thing Optimus did), Bumblebee allowed for everyone's freedom to choose. if they really were to work together, they could have made Cybertron so much better

also their relationship can be viewed like a less restrictive version of Bumblebee and Optimus: Bee is allowed to poke fun at Megatron multiple times and he'd return it in kind, but it's never seen as hostile. Optimus is Bumblebee's "commanding" figure, it would take a lot to speak to him like he's more than his superior, let alone let them banter with each other. i think it's freeing here, to see Bee less cordial and open, and at the same time to see Megatron be this gentle, to respect someone's ideals and even consider them

i just think they're neat

there are no visuals in wolf 359, technically, but the sound design is so efficient at evoking such vivid and specific science fiction environments that it's hard not to feel like that, too, serves as some sort of commentary on the humans-without-humanity technological aspirations of cutter & pryce, in contrast with the average people that goddard employs.

the hephaestus is blinking lights and dials and crt monitors and clutter; it has the background noise, the static and jank and creaking metal of old, clunky, cobbled-together retrofuturism. it's a spacecraft that exists in a world where space travel is old enough for all its technology to be out of date. it's the bridge of the nostromo, it's the millennium falcon with its faulty hyperdrive, it's the bebop. it's the paper print-outs; it's their on-board entertainment of one single vhs copy of home alone 2. the hephaestus is falling apart, it's hostile to human life, it's rotting from the inside, but it's both alive and lived in.

the sol is white and sleek and sterile. everything meticulously in place, and all conveniences the hephaestus is too old and too unimportant to qualify for - artificial gravity, cutter's designated smoking section, etc. the sol is also hostile architecture, but not through years of neglect; it's designed that way. it's progress without people. eiffel calling pryce 'lady imacbeth' is funny, but also, like - yes! the sol, and goddard futuristics laboratories, all of that, should look like the inside of an apple store, and pryce is the same thing, personified.

this isn't to romanticize an idealized past, but - aside from the class differential, the corners goddard cuts, the way both the hephaestus and its crew are treated as disposable assets - i think as a form of visual (or auditory) shorthand, there is something to eiffel's attachment to physical, antiquated things, technology he can fix by hand, and what that reflects as resistance to streamlined advancements, the "greater good" with the least concern for the individual. that he's unbearably nostalgia-brained about his pop culture, and that he's an analog man who is concerned with real, genuine, tangible connection and communication in the face of increasingly arcane, "big picture" capitalist-driven digitization and alienation.

doctor's appointment went well! she listened to my complaints and examined my Cripple Leg (TM) and asked questions about the migraines & then was like "girl. you for sure have a back injury. we are getting x-rays immediately."

also i now have doctor orders to walk around a lot so the nerve problems don't rob my ability to move, which is actually okay because now i CAN exercise. (this same doc told me to sleep and not move during the worst autoimmune stuff. so i trust her judgment.)

this means i have on-paper medical confirmation that i need to go wander around the city and hiking trails every day For My Wellbeing. very cool since that's the only thing i want to do anyway!

Roxy's currently being treated for a painful cyst-type thing growing between her front toes; she's back to putting full weight on it and is getting better but doesn't understand why we haven't gone for walkies for a couple of weeks and is muy annoyed about it.

It’s crazy how much having a leader who gives positive reinforcement, shows reciprocity and thankfulness, and is present changes the dynamics of a team

h-hey guys. do. do you think that once all the autobots are together again and everyone stops hiding, once they all settle into something resembling a clan or something, bumblebee would STILL feel left out? do you think that all those years in hiding made him less of an autobot and he doesn't recognize his place in that group anymore? d-do you think he's spent so much time alone his friends don't remember him as the same person as before and try to avoid him because he's "more serious" and "not fun anymore"? like he grew up? d..do you ev-ver think about that because i.....
