Ruby: GUESS WHAT, GUYS~!

Ruby: (Holds up positive test) I'm pregnant~!

Jaune: H-HOW?!

Ren: WHAT DO YOU MEAN HOW?!

Oscar: (Grabbing his head) Ow... Y-Yeah, Oz, I guess they did do it...

Yang: YOU SLEPT WITH MY BABY SISTER?!

Jaune: W-Wait! What does sex have to do with this?!

Weiss: ...Don't tell me you don't know how babies are made.

Jaune: Wait, you mean sex makes babies? I had no idea!

Blake: I'm not sure how you don't know that, since you have seven sisters.

Nora: AREN'T YOU SUPPOSED TO BE THE SMART ONE?!

Jaune: SMART WITH STRATEGIES! NOT BABIES! AND IT'S NOT LIKE I WAS THERE EVERY TIME A BABY WAS MADE! I JUST THOUGHT BABIES HAPPENED!

Oscar: Wait, wait, wait- Hang on. Oz is making a really good point. He says Silver Eyed Warriors have a low fertility rate, so for her to get pregnant would have to take a LOT of unprotected sex.

Qrow: ...Kid. How many times did you have sex with Ruby?

Jaune: W-Why would I tell you?! That's private!

Qrow: BECAUSE I NEED TO KNOW IF YOU KNOCKED UP MY NIECE! DUMBASS-

Salem: (Doing magic ultrasound) Oh, it looks like you're having septuplets, Miss Rose~!

Jaune: ...Okay, so maybe it was a lot.

Yang: NO SHIT, POPLOCK..

I really like your cyberformed AU! Are there other humans affected? I know sometimes Sparkplug is in New York and I think also Astoria

Thanks! I'm happy your enjoying my funky cyberformed au.

Well you got two of them, it's Sparkplug, Chip, Raoul, Astoria and Poplock (though im still working on the last twos designs) along with just a lot of random ass people who got caught in the cyberforming and got lucky enough not to become just a metal statue, for most people it seems pretty random who becomes cybertronian and who doesn't while for those who were consistently exposed to Cybertronians before things went to hell are much more likely to have become cybertronian in the cyberforming, why? Wait till I actually start finishing those drafts and properly start posting the fic to find out ;]

Also cyberformed human optic colors are random. Most bots change their optic lenses when the war started so a cyberformed human having optics colors of one the faction can cause bots to assume their faction from afar for better and for worse. Sparkplug got unlucky and got red optics having been shot more than once by the autobot who thought he was a con. (Also full chip and sparkplug ref coming soon i finish their designs i just need to draw a proper clean ref)

2Pac featuring Dr. Dre and Roger Troutman - California Love 1995

"California Love" is a song by American rapper 2Pac featuring rapper-producer Dr. Dre and singer Roger Troutman of the funk group Zapp. The song was released as 2Pac's comeback single after his release from prison in 1995 and was his first single as the newest artist of Death Row Records. It reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100 for two weeks (as a double A-side single with "How Do U Want It") and also topped the charts of Italy, New Zealand, and Sweden. The song was posthumously nominated for the Grammy Award for Best Rap Performance by a Duo or Group in 1997.

The first version of the song has three verses featuring Dr. Dre's rapping. 2Pac first heard Dr. Dre's session while at Dre's in-house studio and asked Dre to put him on the song. Producer Laylaw also did an additional remix of the song which is often erroneously credited to Dr. Dre and has been suggested to be one of the reasons for the fallout between Dre and 2Pac a few months later. The remix was included on 2Pac's All Eyez on Me (1996), while this version was put on the UK version of All Eyez on Me.

The original version contains a sample taken from Joe Cocker's 1972 song "Woman to Woman". The remix version contains a sample taken from Kleeer's 1984 song "Intimate Connection". The chorus, "California knows how to party", was sung by Roger Troutman using his characteristic talk box and was taken from the 1982 song "West Coast Poplock" by Ronnie Hudson & The Street People which was written by Ronnie Hudson and Mikel Hooks. In the song where Troutman sings "shake it, shake it baby", he interpolates the chant he used on his 1982 Zapp single, "Dance Floor".

The more famous if its two different music videos was directed by Hype Williams, and the casting includes George Clinton, Chris Tucker, and Roger Troutman carrying a talk box. It was nominated for an MTV Video Music Award for Best Rap Video in 1996.

"California Love" received a total of 65,2% yes votes!

“You know, other than the competition, I had a few other ideas on what to do, but I wanted to see if you were down for it all first.”

Tracks leaned over, rested his elbows on the back of the couch, and plopped his helm onto his hands. “Oh? Do tell.”

”Well… There’s a car show over in Poplock’s neighborhood, Rocksteady is going to a street race after that–“

”A legal street race, I’d hope.”

Raoul gave Tracks a flat look. “Listen, man, I know you aren’t looking to get busted. I mean… Can you even really get arrested? Would Optimus Prime have to bail you out?”

Tracks grimaced. “I’d rather not find out…”

Raoul barked out a laugh. “Yeah, okay, I get that. But anyways, yeah, it’s legal. There’s a track where Rocksteady works and, well, you gotta register for the race but I was thinking that,” Raoul made a sort of shrugging motion, “maybe they’d be willing to let an Autobot race with everyone for the novelty of it?”

Tracks pondered this for a moment and nodded. “That could be interesting. We should also go to Fifth Avenue!”

Raoul made an incredulous face at his friend. “You got Fifth Avenue money?”

Tracks produced a credit card from his subspace with a smug grin.

”Yooooo!” Raoul sat up. “I didn’t know cars had money!”

”Cars don’t! But let’s just say I’ve been doing a few side jobs myself so I could have a little extra fun while I’m here. It was Spike’s idea.”

”It was a good idea, man! Alright, we’ll do Fifth… if we can find a store with a big enough door.”

if you’d like more Daniel bracelet lore: one of the gold bracelets is a Fope bracelet, which both Heidi and Michelle have matching ones (I would assume Grace as well but i haven’t seen any photos) and I’m about 90% sure Daniel has a matching bracelet with his dad from Good Art Hlywd, it’s an old style I think called stretchy pants (the black one). His other bracelets are a ball chain from gah and a Cartier clash bracelet (can you tell I’ve also done a deep dive lmao)

Omfg. This is amazing information! Thank you NONNY.

I think the gold bracelet you are talking about is either the top one or the bottom one. And the Good Art Hlywd black stretchy one, which I'm good I got a close up reference to now.

The Clash de Cartier bracelet, and the poplock ball bracelet from GAH. Both of which I spotted but couldn't see the details. Thank you for the details!!!

it was my last day at that silly job today. by all accounts i did kill it. i was practically crowd surfing on the praise of those 250 volunteers. but im very disappointed that the manager i thought was so cool turned out to be a total dud. its always jarring when a chill labradorian poplocking nonbinary lesbian suddenly starts laughing at homeless people in front of you. i felt i was being treated badly but i tried to give the benefit of the doubt until the volunteers took offence on my behalf. the volunteers were literally having group convos about the way that festival staff would speak to me. today i sent the org a glowing goodbye email thanking my manager for the opportunity. no response and i am certain i will never get one. so when i submitted my final report, i was honest. too honest?

“We’re here,” Tracks said as he rolled up to the end of a dirt road, waking Raoul from his light nap. The sun was just overhead and the sunshine shone right through Track’s windshield just right. With a stretch and a pop of his back, Raoul sat up. The beach was empty as the eye could see. On the sand, there was a large blanket with a basket in the middle. 

“Are you surprising me with a picnic on the beach?” Raoul asked. 

“Yes,” Track said, “I found this place by accident one day on patrol. There’s nothing here for the cons to try to attack. We have a nice little spot all to ourselves for the rest of the day.” Raoul smiled even wider. 

“Well then,” the human said as Track’s driver side door opened, “aren’t you just the romantic? I know Poplock and Bebop are going to love hearing about this.” 

“You're not going to tell them where this beach is?” Tracks sounded a little worried.

“Absolutely not,” Raoul quickly said, “no way I’m letting anyone ruin this place for us.” The human got out of Tracks' vehicle mode and the autobot transformed into his robot form. Picking Raoul up, Tracks placed a kiss on the side of the human’s head. With a smile, the human placed a kiss on Track’s lower lip. 

“Now I know you're hungry,” Tracks said, “now let's eat before the food gets cold and the drinks get hot.”
