Actually the funniest example of Megatron apologism (neutral) I've seen is when people call it biased and rigged for Optimus to be the judge for Megatron's trial, but have nothing to say about the fact that Optimus let Megatron on the Lost Light AS CO-CAPTAIN which is ALSO incredibly rigged and biased and no one wanted it and Optimus barely had the authority to even do that.
It just seems like a case where people will always take the angle/interpretation that favors Megatron as a victim of Autobot eeeevillll, so they harp on how unfair it was for Megatron to be put on trial, but completely skirt over exactly how and why Megatron even got to serve parole/not rot in prison in the first place. I guess because it would disrupt the ever-present fan wank about how actually Megatron is being victimized for being put on trial and those Autobots are "just as bad" (lmao).

was working on a pebbles design and realised his colours suit a rosy maple moth
now I need to draw the motherators
so don't mind me rambling ab my motherator au ideas lmao
Pebs is a Rosy Maple Moth - Mainly pink with the yellow details like his forehead markings, could scatter some blue in there to match his overseers.
Moon is a Sunset Moth - Has the blue (more of a teal but close enough) with the warm reds for her forehead marking (I know it's more pink in-game, but I kinda prefer the red look, plus the wings feature a lot of orange and yellow too. Could mess with that and spice her up a little!)
Sig is a Luna Moth - Green, lol. Not sure if the yellowish antenna, reddish legs and wing-lining, or the white fluff will work very well with his purple robes, buuut I'll figure it out! The pretty wing-tails would be a nice touch with the long scarf too.
Suns is a Grovers Moth - My Suns design is a little more red-focused (still with the main yellow colour and muted purple robes), so the dark red could work with his markings and the black could blend with the purples, with a couple colour adjustments. Those little spots on the wings could be turned into suns too!
Wind is a Tolype Moth - AUGH. It's so fluffy, yet has such pretty wings. Grey scale, as I imagine them due to the "Grey Wind" nickname. Pretty simple, but funky enough for the cool old guy :)
And maybe Inno is a Spongy Moth? (Not certain about Inno yet) - I have always imagined her with big antenna, probably because a lot of the fandom's designs make her suuuuper tiny with cute proportions like large eyes and antenna (which I ADORE). Sooo, Spongys could be good for that, and they have simple enough designs to lean into the general design concept I've got
(Summary: the older the iterator, the more decorative because the ancients had more time and resources back then. Wind is heavily decorated with tattoo-like details, Moon is very brightly coloured, Suns is very dramatically decorated, Sig is sort of in the middle, while Pebbles and Inno are a little more simplistic)
I'll work on these. one day. maybe
