　　　　　　TRAILCUTTER x gn human reader

　　　　『　trailcutter ,, gender neutral human reader    』

　　-> lil oneshot 😞😞

　　— gore ,, death warning ,, spoilers ,, angst

　　— i got to ,, idk what issue it was but my mf mans 😞😞 mf vos and kaon 🤬🤬🤬

      you told him to be careful ,, you made him promise you to not get hurt. he promised ,, he promised he wouldnt. yet his cold ,, dead body lay there on the table. first aid had told you what happened ,, incident with the djd as he said. trailcutter wanted to help one of them ,, even after he found out they had been a djd member. he just had to ,, didnt he ?

      heart clenched tight in chains ,, your eyes filled with tears. teeth clenched ,, hands pulled into fists ,, you stared at him. your beloved trailcutter ,, torn apart and leaking energon. the pink liquid spilled off the table ,, making a puddle on the ground.

      tears soon turned to rivers ,, streaming down your cheeks as you clutched a digit to your chest. memories flooding you ,, overwhelming you the longer you looked. massacred ,, tortured and all for what ? for being an autobot ,, for trying to help a cybertronian in need.

      harsh cries were ripped from your throat ,, echoing in the room. it felt as though your heart was ripped in half ,, seeing him slaughtered before you. no one should go through this ,, the pain he must've felt during it all. it hurt your head even thinking about it. cheeks burning ,, you cried and screamed ,, for your lost lover.

      " god damn it ,," your voice now hushed ,, shaking as you held his digit tighter to your body. " GOD DAMN IT !" you screamed one last time ,, voice wavering and throat burning as you wept.

      your eyes casted towards his face ,, colors dim and visor off. more tears flooded your eyes ,, wetting the bot underneath you and your clothing. shaky hands reached out for his cheeks ,, cupping them as you glanced at him. dead ,, unresponsive ,, gone. no sign of him ,, anywhere ,, or ever again.

      with one last kiss ,, pressed to his derma ,, you pressed your forehead against what was left of his. a small knock on the wall didnt waver your attention towards him once ,, only giving a small acknowledgment that you heard the being. the warlord himself ,, megatron ,, stood in the doorway. he looked uncomfortable if anything ,, face casted aside and optics turned off. his posture was tight ,, arms close by his side ,, as though he were nervous.

      he cleared his throat ,, and with a nod towards you ,, he moved over towards trailcutter. you didnt lose focus on your lover ,, holding his helm tight to your body as your tears splashed onto his facial plating.

      " ultra magnus needs you ,, hes on the bridge ." was the only thing he had said to you. your eyes met his optics ,, hatred filled your whole body. you wanted to lash out ,, shoot him ,, punch him ,, spit on him or something. give him a piece of your mind ,, let him experience the pain you were feeling right now. but you did neither ,, only wrinkling your nose at the mech and placing one last kiss to trailcutter before leaving.

      hatred and vengeance filled you ,, anger towards the djd for what they did to your lover. he didnt deserve it ,, not one bit. you made a promise ,, that the moment you would see the djd ,, you wouldnt hold back on treating them the same way they did to trailcutter.

「今サナギから蝶になるの ありのまま全て見せつけて」

Hoo boy, I spent one whole day (or two) on this! NGL it actually looks rlly good ^^

This was inspired by an animation my friend made! The other inspired is the song used is in the video: "Abnormality Dancin Girl". You can listen to it here! (It's a banger)

Oh and don't worry Teebs (Trailbreaker/Trailcutter) isn't actually insane in my book/continuity or in canon this is just for the photo :)

I just kinda thought of him when I listened to the entire song for some reason. He's meant to look a lot more deranged but I guess I wasn't able to lmao (he looks cool so it's ok)

Also yes the electricity is a reference to his oopsy daisy in the comics

[randomposts-27]

Optimus: Autobots! Unicron is attacking, battle stations!

Cliffjumper, loading blaster: LEMME AT ‘EM!

Hound: Anyone gonna tell him thats only gonna tickle the big giant

Trailbreaker: Ya he’s gonna die

[screamsindepression]

Half Trailbreaker hcs;

● Trailbreaker can fly yes but chooses not ta

● seekers can't hurt those carrying nor children so Trailbreaker always knows :)

● First time an autobot got sparked(Smokescreen) he knew and would not leave the poor bot alone

● he doesn't hide that his half seeker but like literally no one knows

● Trailbreaker bakes bc it's relaxing

● the aerial(?)bots cling ta him as their carrier he will kill someone for them

● Skyfire is his most trusted friend and later on they form a trine bond

● he knows bout Red Alert and Cliffjumper but thought they knew

● is pining over two bots who are in love with eachother

● he holds respect for the seekers he fights even if he hates them

Transformers as memes - a thread: (pt. 2/?)

[retr0scum]

🎷🎷fuck it up

[knight-says-rollout]

Would you mind telling us about more disabled Cybertronians?

Oh boy would I

For this list let’s focus on physical disabilities, both because they’re the most commonly dismissed by the fandom and bc if we try to cover everything we’d be here all day (that can be another list, maybe, if y’all want)

This isn’t going to be comprehensive bc I’m tired but!! I will aim for a broad variety of examples nonetheless

Bumblebee - You all know him, you all love him. He’s the most obvious and most well known example of a disabled Cybertronian character.

In many iterations he is mute

Not by choice but because he lacks a voice box. Bee physically isn’t capable of speech and depending on the version has different tools to work around that. Sometimes he uses his radio to repurpose song and radio dialogue into speech, in cyberverse he also makes use of the internet for clips. In the aligned continuity (tfp and connected media) he speaks in binary, a very simplified form of language using beeps and buzzes, but still lacks a real voice and can’t form words.

In IDW he has a cane

At one point in the comics Bumblebee was shot by a human protester and as a result used a cane for a good bit of time. I haven’t had the chance to read that far into IDW yet so I’m not sure how long he had the cane for but it was enough time that it’s a solidified part of the charcaters history. I’ve seen little models of the cane for sale, to be paired with bee figures.

TFP Ultra Magnus - everyone’s favorite awkward commander, despite his popularity he’s surprisingly overlooked when it comes to this discussion

An amputee, he lost his hand

During an energon raid with wheeljack, magnus’ hand was crushed. Ratchet couldn’t save it and had to amputate, replacing it with a hooked prosthetic. I call it a prosthetic rather than replacement part because despite him being able to move it, it’s not a hand. Not in the way he had previously, and he has to relearn how to use it at all.

I think that’s an important distinction to make when discussing disability and transformers. Some bots might have only ever had one hand, or no legs, or etc but that’s always been their level of ability and since they Are robotic. Yeah they might not have the same capabilities as another bot but that’s a hard metric to go by. Seekers can fly but a grounder isn’t disabled because they can’t fly too, it’s a different standard.

WFC Shamble - far lesser known than Magnus, and reasonably so, this background character is Also missing a limb

Amputee, leg edition

His prosthetic is a lot less fancy than magnus’s, it’s a simple peg leg. Put em together and you get a pirate. Not much to say about him since i don’t know how he lost the leg, just that he did.

Shadow Striker - Most awesome lady in cyberverse. Unlike the above two, she Was able to get actual replacement parts rather than prosthetics. Despite this, she is both shown throughout the show and implied to have

Impaired mobility

Chronic pain

She was able to get replacement parts yes but they were needed because she was blown up. The limbs she was given were kinda just what the others could Find and as such are mismatched and don’t fit her very well. Her motor skills took a blow especially when it comes to combat, something she used to excel in. Her new limbs are described as unstable and prone to malfunction. The loss of mobility and implied chronic pain that come along with her situation are rough, but she makes do.

SG Soundwave - my favorite little guy, he’s in a bit of a different situation than the previous.

Bad Joints ™

His body was entirely overhauled multiple times, successfully, but the latest frame change was done with conflicting metals. Earth and Cybertronian materials clash in his joints, making them prone to getting stopped up. The most affected hinge being the one on the door to his tape deck. It is so prone to getting stuck that his cassettes refuse to dock with him at risk of getting trapped. To work around this, Soundwave has the aid of a personalized case he carries around that they dock in instead.

IDW Sunstreaker - speaking of assistive devices, this guy was (for a time) a wheelchair user! Or,, hoverchair.

Temporary,,, paraplegic? Correct me if another term fits better

Taking this moment for an aside to say hey!! Lookit that, both canes and hoverchairs are things that canonically and casually exist on cybertron!! It’s not too wild to assume there are bots out there who use them long term!! Yes both characters on this list were repaired eventually but they’re also both very popular old characters from an action based franchise and hasbro doesn’t have the balls to make something like that permanent yet. We the fandom are not hasbro. We can do whatever we damn want with our OCs. It’s canon that ur little guy can use mobility aids.

Ok, PSA over, anyway yeah Sunny’s body was basically wrecked and alpha trion was able to repair all of him except his legs. This put him in a hoverchair for a good amount of time.

Finback - he’s a con, a pirate, who developed a “metal wasting disease”

He’s on permanent life support

The disease is going to kill him eventually, and it’s explicitly stated that he’s come to terms with the idea of his death. In the meantime he’s using pretender tech, kinda like fancy armor, to reinforce himself and boost his immune system

Perceptor - for a microscope, the fact he’s got vision issues in multiple continuities is kinda ironic

He’s fully blind in cyberverse

He lost an eye in IDW

Between the two we get to see both routes taken to work with this. Adaption and technological aid. In cyberverse he uses his scope to compensate for the loss of vision Toph-style. In IDW he built himself a monocle that basically replaces the pieces that are missing.

Now we get into the uniquely Cybertronian disabilities, one’s that don’t quite translate to human conditions

Transmutate - is a beloved bot from beast wars

They can’t transform, they don’t have an alt mode

I’m hazy on the details of their character but afaik they came from a damaged stasis pod. Described as deformed and handicapped for their both their lack of an alt mode and general appearance, they are probably the oldest explicitly disabled Cybertronian character

Xaaron - from G1 is in a similar situation

He can’t transform, it would kill him

Unlike transmutate he does have an alt mode, a tank, but after thousands of years without transforming he is no longer able to. The new stress it would cause on his body would kill him.

Broadside - continuing with the subject of alt modes, this clumsy boy is a boat! That’s not a good thing.

He’s very prone to motion sickness

As you can imagine, chronic sea sickness isn’t the most helpful thing when you are the boat. This brings in the entirely new element of mobility issues that are inherent to alt modes. A bot that functions fine in root form might not in alt mode and vice versa.

Trailbreaker - is another instance of this. He’s not a fast car by any means but that doesn’t stop the fact

His frame has a very high energon cost

Possibly the least fuel efficient autobot, he’s got an outlier ability on top of it all that only further increases his required energon intake. He needs to pay more attention to his energon levels and refuel more often overall.

G1 Knockout - yes that’s right the shiny medic himself is on this list, though not for the same reason as his tfp version, g1 knockout still lives up to his name

He’s prone to fainting

A knockout in the more literal sense, he faints when he gets too excited. Fully collapses and everything. Since he’s a fall risk, his teammates take care to keep an eye on him.

Annnnd Yknow he probably should’ve been earlier in the list along with the “human-ish” issues but I’m tired, it’s late, and I’m bringing this list to a close

Im sure there are more characters that I didn’t mention but I hope this helped! Thank you for the ask

[subiehasissue]

additional characters ( blaster minimus ambus and bluestreak) also redos of few

[zephyrrhiesfyrian]

I have finally finished the first set of sixteen expression doodles/chat stickers! A thank you to @slugsjunk for indulging my nonsense and giving me characters to draw :3 This was fun for a lot of reasons, but a big one was that it gave me a reason to draw characters I never had before, which is always good for practice.

Here they are! :D (some of them I envisioned as having specific scenarios attached to them lol)

Ambulon: I imagine this was his expression when First Aid told him about jump-starting.

Swerve: he's nervous because he's not taken his visor off in front of anybody before, but don't worry, the person he's looking at thinks he's cute. (they're in my next set >:3)

You might notice he's missing his visor. @slugsjunk's sent an edit of a visorless Swerve to the "cursed-images" channel in our Discord server and then asked me to use him for one of the expressions. I deigned to make him a little less deeply upsetting.

Whirl: he's flirting with Cyclonus ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Cyclonus: oh shit he flirtin' bACK- (＃°Д°)

Getaway: I just wanted to make him cry. Is that so wrong? Kinda makes me angry how nice his highlights turned out.

Megatron: he just handed Minimus a poem he wrote about him and now he a lil nervous 👉👈

Thunderclash: (I already posted this one earlier) he's laughing at some silly joke Rodimus made because he's a himbo in love with his captain <3<3<3

He sparkle because that's the way @lush-specimen describes him in their fantastic fics :>

Rodimus: the opposite shot of the previous one; he's not happy about Thunderclash finding his joke funny. First the guy takes his quest, now he's like the only person who laughs at Roddy's jokes? This guy's GOTTA be hiding something! (spoiler alert: he's not, Thunderclash is just a massive dork :D)

Trailbreaker/Trailcutter: he angy >:(

Lyzack: Black Shadow cannot tell her and Leo apart nor does he care to, and she's getting tired of being called the wrong name. That man better be glad he's made out of ununtrium or he'd be dead metal.

I've never understood why she looks like a recolored Starscream in canon, nor am I particularly a fan of how blocky and unmoving Leozack's helm is, so I made my own design. Fight me.

Black Shadow: speak of the devil He's lookin' at Blue Bacchus and being hella gay for him :>

Blue Bacchus: he was not prepared to deal with a genuine Shady smile this early in the cycle. Please, Shadow, he's trying to fuel. Let the man drink his energon before you make him swoon.

Perceptor: he blushi blushi 'cause he watching Brainstorm do marginally safer science than usual. He is very proud that his constant nagging is paying off.

Dai Atlas: oop priestman with the big sword is not pleased. I wonder who's the cause...*looks at star saber*

Fulcrum: I bet Misfire took his drink or something. Or maybe he's just regretting that he didn't detonate and now he's stuck with these idiots.

Tarn: I choose to believe this is the face Tarn is always making behind his mask. *blep*

Reminder that I still have at least sixteen more of these still to complete; you are never safe. >:D
