#they're gestalt bruh

[saxandviolins77]

Was just trying to collate the Structies between who is an introvert, who could be an extrovert, and was curious your ideas on that with them?

Hook is the only one I solidly am sure on and that is him being introverted.

Scrapper could be either?

Bonecrusher I think would he an introvert?

Just curious your take and why you think which fits which of the boys!

Fun question!

Ok, I'll even do you a good one and try to stay canon-compliant here.

Hook: Like you said, introvert, and the annoying kind too. Completely loathes any form of unnecessary social interaction; if you aren't adding anything to the conversation with your input, please shut up. He would much rather spend time focused on fixing a circuit chip or polishing Megatron's new super weapon. It's kinda funny when you remember his job REQUIRES him to deal with other people (engineer and surgeon). I imagine that at the end of a particularly busy day, he just plops on the bed, his already small social battery completely drained, and if any other Constructicon dares to bug him, they'll probably get verbally berated like never before.

Scrapper: Ambivert. HEAR ME OUT! The group's spokesman, can hold a conversation, and it's the guy we see reporting to superiors. Of course, I also cannot see him as a full extrovert (even if I do think of him as a social butterfly); he has to be at least a little bit of an introvert. I see him enjoying time alone with his... Building materials... Which is bodies, guys, It's bodies.

Bonecrusher: Oof, introvert. If you see him, you might get the impression he does well in socializing, but the truth is he just says what's necessary, does his job, and that's it. Gets more satisfaction doing plans for a Take Down and carrying it out on his own time than in a big gathering with the 'Cons.

Scavenger: Introvert. Takes pleasure in spending time alone in mineshafts and damp holes searching for his next object of interest to show the other 'Cons and Constructicons. Though I do think he pretends to be an extrovert (to disastrous results). His thought process is: "Everyone likes extroverts; they're popular and have lots of friends!" and then he just comes off as an annoying tryhard.

Mixmaster: Unpopular opinion, but this man is an introvert, bruh, no way he isn't. Yes, his personality is bubbly; he talks a lot and interacts with ppl, but I cannot see this man getting energized through social interaction, no. Mainly, his way of recharging his social battery is staying locked in his lab, mixing shit together for his own gratification. Though I guess it depends on how you see him.

Long Haul: Genuinely very hard to decide. On the introverted side, I can see him enjoying time alone and away from construction sites, but isn't this more of a rejection of him being dissatisfied with his function? Hm, I'll say extrovert for him. I feel he does enjoy talking to other people (non-constructicons), and he gets recharged from social interaction (complaining). We can't forget that he's a secret gloryhog, y'all; he wants that sweet recognition so baaad. It can go both ways, tho; I'll leave it ambiguous.

oh god.

wait if Nona's a fused soul she doesn't have infinite thanergy anymore

of whites so white they looked yellow except where they were splotched with reds so red they looked orange, a multihued melange of faces and walls

this can't be Gideon right

Prince Ianthe Naberius the First, the Lyctor Prince, the Saint of Awe

what the hell

oh my god Gideon is also there

Her Most Serene Highness, Crown Prince Kiriona Gaia, heir to the First House, the Emperor’s only daughter

uhh???

ummmmmm??????

“Cam, have you thought about what it means if Nona’s actually—a completed merger? One we will never actually be able to unpick, a successful soul gestalt?”

so??

Camilla did something a little strange then: she tripped. She pitched forward on a raised bit of the carpet and stumbled into the Angel, tried to right herself with her hands on the Angel’s hips and front, and stumbled upward, saying “Sorry—sorry,” glancing out the window like she was embarrassed. Then she turned her head back and looked more normally Camilla, standing as gracefully as though she could never even think about tripping.

this is like the oldest "bug somebody" trick in the books

“Bloody dog. Let me put him in the kitchen with a toy,”

she, or they're gonna get a knife

“Yes, you made it up.”

oh well another kid goes crazy wondering if she's crazy

oh my god that third tantrum scene I'm getting physically ill reading it and Idon't think I've ever been so disturbed reading anything

This second arm had come off longer, and she gripped that one firmly, one hand at the bottom and the other hand atop that one. Even with everything so soggy and slippery, that felt safe.

ok

unless it didn’t recognise it. Unless your soul was a stranger’s … or a melange. Is that the gestalt theory busted—or confirmed? Is that how we explain the rapid healing?”

ok

I can't believe we only get to listen to twins reunion scene. come on! and she's puppeting...that's why she could be there, but where is the planet actually?

Look at you … more beautiful than ever, even with crappy jewellery and a million split ends. Studs, darling? Earrings on a diet?”

just got second-hand judged by Ianthe eight times for every stud I wear daily..

also a weird thing about Corona is, she frickin hates being criticized but loves Ianthe, but Ianthe puts her down all the time. was she being gaslighted from as soon as she could understand words???? judging from how Ianthe almost made Harrow genuinely love her(but she choose not to? not sure) I won't put it past Ianthe to do that, cuz if there was a control dynamic in their relationship Ianthe would be the one in control. Corona wanted to be eaten by her.

The voice cooled and hardened like an ice cube.

“Didn’t Harrow—what? When did you talk to Harrow?”

haha I remember Muir saying on her blog that book 3 is girls being annoyed that it is legal for exes to talk to eachother

“I was on a shuttle with her body for months and months. I want to know what’s going on.”

oh. yeah I figured she's being puppetted too, but like. how? who? why?

I'm 95% percent sure Nona is merged, but Harrow and Gideon seem to live inside her at the same time??? what

The other one, Crown’s boyfriend I think

hahahaha "sister"was said many times, buf Nona still think it's boyfriend. that settles it

If we can get the body of Gideon Nav—the key to the Locked Tomb—out of that barracks, will you give us the Sixth House?”

bruh everyone thinks the tomb is still locked, but I really really believe that Harrow opened it already.

“A pair of scissors,” said Camilla. “Iris dye.” She looked at Nona’s button-up shirt, which was unbuttoned to show the T-shirt underneath. “And the blackest clothes you can find.”

like where this is going.

Which reminds me, how could Gideon see Cytherea's thanergy signals when Harrow overrided her? no Lyctor masking? or did she turn it off? how did she fool everyone for so long?

He was all, Matter doesn’t play by these rules! You’re doing bone parthenogenesis! I told him his mum did bone parthenogenesis. A— told me he’d kill me one day.

*laughing*

wait I just realized

he did try to kill him later

Not a request or anything, but what if the Player has a soundboard and the boys could hear it? Like when Jeb's confronting Phobos about Project Gestalt, a sudden Vine Boom sound effect is played and it throws everyone off. Or they play Cartoon Running sounds whenever they see a grunt start running? The thought of everyone being incredibly confused while Player laughs in the background is funny kajshdakj

God, this would be so funny lmao. It'd probably just originate as an inside joke for the stream (maybe the Player does it for other games?), but your vessels wouldn't understand it at all. I can just imagine Jeb and Phobos having their tense confrontation after years of building conflicts and tension, and in the midst of this they just hear a deafening boom once Jeb makes a point and they just stop for a second. They're mutually confused and wondering what the hell that was or where it came from (likely worrying that a scientist just blew something up) before they hear your laugh.

And then it probably happens a lot for Christoff, since you use him as a vessel lmao. Crackpot calls him a coward? Bruh sound effect. He punches Crackpot immediately afterward? Tacobell sound effect as soon as his knuckles hit him and he crumples to the floor. And Jeb really has no idea what's going on the entire time either, so he kind of just pauses and goes 😐 after each time you do it. (Even if it's in combat.) It makes you laugh though, so he can't be too mad at it.

I don't think Hank would care all that much since he probably gets used to it right away. It's something you do, so he just accepts it. Sometimes he even laughs, like when a MAG is charging at him and you use the Cartoon Running sound effect. (You've used it before, but for some reason this time was particularly funny.)

Sanford's in a similar boat to Jeb in just being bewildered, probably feeling weirdly left out since Deimos finds it hilarious and laughs along with you. And Deimos doesn't even know what the references are or what memes are, but he somehow manages to understand the gist of it. He probably even starts repeating them too, which is annoying to some others. Cut to him saying "sheeeesh" when you equip Sanford's other outfits, and Sanford is just so confused (and also annoyed because he's seen the outfit before, and why does he have to do an inside joke, he doesn't even understand what it means-)

nier for the fandom ask? 😳

Ahhh thank you Cass (:

(Prompt)

The first character I first fell in love with: Well Nier Automata was my first exposure to the series so it's probably 2B

The character I never expected to love as much as I do now: Man I'd say that's a good chunk of the cast, especially the Nier Replicant/Gestalt cast. I guess I'd go with Emil and Weiss, I love them so much they deserved so much better ):

The character everyone else loves that I don’t: Hmmm this is also hard? I guess A2, idk I like her but I never got that emotionally invested in her the way a lot of people in the fandom did.

The character I love that everyone else hates: Ehhh I can't think of anyone.

The character I used to love but don’t any longer: Also can't really think of anyone.

The character I would totally smooch: BRUH IDK 9S???

The character I’d want to be like: The funny thing about the Nier series is that as much as I love the characters, I don't think I'd want to be like any of them. They're all a little fucked up in some way 😭

The character I’d slap: TYRANN FOR SURE THAT MOTHERFUCKER CAN DIE FOR ALL I CARE

Fuck Dimo and all the kids who bullied Kaine

And also fuck Jean Paul

A pairing that I love: 2B/9S, Nier/Kaine what can I say I'm typical

A pairing that I despise: I don't like Nier/Emil, idk I know Emil has a lil baby crush on Nier and that technically Emil is like hundreds of years old but idk he's still pretty Child to me whereas Nier is a teenager
