BumbleBegatron isn't real he can't hurt you

BumbleBegatron:

A message for Optimus prime

Here are my favourite frames

Feel free to add your own context

Ratchet thinks Skibbity Sigma is Earth's version of Vector Sigma💀

Ratchet was requested to read human's slangs

[tfp-is-my-lifeblood-lol]

Which magazine is this from, and where can I find the rest of it? I gotta know what happens next😂

[tfp-is-my-lifeblood-lol]

I turned my fish lamp on its "green" setting so it looks like a container of Synth-En LOL

[tfp-is-my-lifeblood-lol]

Wouldn't it be funny if synthetic energon did ABSOLUTLEY nothing?

And the crazy shit Ratchet did in "Stronger Faster" was 100% the placebo effect?

I mean, we know that isn't true, because we literally SEE Ratchet's vital stats change, plus he passes out, and his eyes turn green, but wouldn't it be funny, though?

Imagine: It's completely harmless, basically just green water, and Ratchet's like "wow this is the good shit" and goes on a rampage because he thinks it's magical energon steroids cocaine.

Trying to make my Finch's house look like the TFP Autobot base.

VERY work-in-progress, but here's what I have so far.

I tried to make Pip look like Ratchet as best I could :b

[tfp-is-my-lifeblood-lol]

I've seen those being referred to as a "horn," which I also love, because it gives unicorn vibes🦄🦄🦄🦄🦄

Especially with Arcee

I’m curious, what do you guys call the red thingy on starscream’s forehead? Is that a part of his body? Is it a decoration, maybe a far fetched reference to the crown he has in other continuities?

Follow up question: if it is detachable do you guys think it screws on or is it welded onto there. Or something else. If it’s a part of his body does he need to clip it like a nail

Arcee has a similar thing but it has more dimension to it and I really like it because it makes her look like a princess. I might make that a headcanon eventually. She’s like Nausicaa.

I really like Arcee’s design in general EXCEPT FOR HER LIPS THEY SCARE ME

Now that’s not to say starscream doesn’t also look like a Princess. He’s the weirdest fairy princess in the world.

“A human child sees starscream and mistakes him for their fairy godmother” added to my screm fic ideas list

[tfp-is-my-lifeblood-lol]

IT'S SO CUTE!!!!

I love how Looney Tunes it is with the scraplet dusting himself off all smug, and Jack with the little wave.

Arcee looking like Cubchoo from Pokemon😭

So after three days of grinding my guts i finally completed this rough WIP of my animation of the entire TFP Episode 7 in my Sparkling AU.

I might or might not finish it, it hurts me too much.

[tfp-is-my-lifeblood-lol]

TFP Headcanon time!

You know how, in Rescue Bots, Optimus Prime mentions having read human books, and loving The Little Engine That Could?

He DEFINITELY adores Horton Hears a Who.

Like, think about it: It's about a character who finds a tiny, fragile planet full of tiny people who need help, and he just wants to rescue them while everyone around him (like the Decepticons) wants to destroy it, simply because they don't understand.

"A person's a person no matter how small" would vibe with him so hard, because he's basically in the same situation protecting Earth and humans.

He even says something similar in "Scrapheap" when Arcee is making fun of Bulkhead for being big.

And the ending where all the animals finally hear the Whos and change their ways is Optimus's dream of how he wishes the war would end. He's so kind, he perceives the Decepticons (especially Megatron) as "not understanding" the value of Earth, rather than understanding but not caring.

[tfp-is-my-lifeblood-lol]

FACTS!

Jack notices Raf’s dejection and offers his controller to make him feel better. It’s a subtle show of his sensitive nature.

He’s a good kid, y’all.

I don’t care what anyone says. Miko, Rafael, and Jack are wonderful human characters to me.

[tfp-is-my-lifeblood-lol]

Yo this is sick! What's the recipe?

A couple of people in one of the personal dialogues inspired me to make dark energon. Well, okay, now I have something to show you. Dark energon.

:D

It tastes like full of cherry-scented shit, but that's probably the way it should be.

[tfp-is-my-lifeblood-lol]

I tried to introduce Arcee to Rick Sanchez from Rick and Morty, but she entered the 6th dimension :(

[tfp-is-my-lifeblood-lol]

It's TFP Arcee's voice actor LOOOOL😂

"NoBoDy AsKeD, YoU, DeBoRaH!!!!!!"

[tfp-is-my-lifeblood-lol]

These are all so accurate😂

Some Transformers prime memes I made with a friend @forreal-forreal42 enjoy

Tfp Autobots Encountering the Mind-Control Cell Phones from Rescue Bots

(Because it canonically exists in the Alligned continuity, and I'm abusing that knowledge to torment my favorite little meow meows)

I've been wanting to write these headcanons. Might do Decepticons next.

Context for if you haven't seen the Rescue Bots episode "Spell Bound": A human named Madeline Pynch creates mind-control phones that hypnotize both humans and Cybertronians to dig up Blossom Vale (part of Griffin Rock)

Optimus Prime:

-He's the only one who's immune to the phones' power

-Lucky for him, the Matrix of Leadership can protect him from that kind of influence

-Because of that, he'd be the first to discover something isn't right with the humans, and eventually the other Bots when they'd start acting strange.

-He'd notice they're groundbridging to Griffin Rock with no explanation, and that they keep saying the phrase: "The project is the priority."

-Plus, their voices. Sure, they sound normal on the surface, but Optimus is very perceptive, and would pick up on the slight lack of emotion, and artificial tone when they speak.

-Throughout this mess, Optimus mainly confides in Ratchet

"What is going on?" Ratchet would muse, almost awestruck by the strange behavior of the others.

"I am unsure," Optimus would reply. "But I believe something is deeply amiss, old friend."

-Both of them would be struggling to uncover what this mysterious "project" is, and why the other Bots and humans have suddenly become so obsessed with it.

Arcee:

-She's the first Bot that falls under the spell; Jack's the first human to fall under, and he'd infect her

-Jack's responsible, empathetic personality works against him when he finds a golden cellphone abandoned at school.

"Someone must've lost this." He'd say. "I'd...better return it, right? I mean...I'd hate for someone to be freaking out, wondering where their phone is."

"I think they'll be fine without their phone for a couple of hours," Arcee would quip. "Come on, it's go-time. We've gotta get back to base."

-Then it rings

"I'd...better get that." Jack would say.

Arcee would playfully role her eyes and smile. "Alright. We'll go back after you've done your good deed for the day. But make it quick."

-Upon answering the call, Jack's whole body suddenly goes rigid. "The project is the priority."

"Uhh...Jack...?" Arcee would press, nervous about her partner's abrupt shift in demeanor.

-Arcee would vent to Bulkhead. "Something's seriously wrong with Jack," and beg Ratchet for help. "Ratchet, come on. He's gotta be...I don't know, sick, or something, right? He's not acting...human."

-But soon, Jack would attach a phone to her in vehicle mode, and she'd be sucked in as well.

-Arcee's mind control would be subtle. She's naturally stoic, after all. The others might mistake her drone-like behavior for her usual closed-off personality, even when Optimus asks her to go on a mission, and she flatly replies: "...Can't..." Perhaps she's just having a rough day thinking about her lost partners. But suspicions rise when she and Jack disappear to Griffin Rock.

-Even in trance, Arcee maintains her stealth and agility, making her a formidable opponent.

Bulkhead:

-He'd get infected by his human charge, just like Arcee.

-Miko is SUPER suspicious of Jack's strange, zombie-like behavior, so she tracks him down and calls him out on it. She'd assume it's the work of Decepticons.

"Yeah, ok, Jack. You think you can fool me. Come on, dude! You're acting like Megatron barbecued your brain! You're some kind of mind-controlled zombie! But, don't worry, Jack Rabbit! I'll find a way to fix you up. Otherwise, Bulk's gonna bash you into zombie smithereens!"

-Jack would probably have to battle Miko to get her to listen to the call, but eventually, she'd become hypnotized, too.

-Now THAT'S a HUGE red flag for Bulkhead, and, well, EVERYONE

-MIKO is acting stoic and speaking in a monotone? OUR MIKO?

-Oh, Primus, no.

"Miko," Bulkhead would say, holding Miko's electric guitar. "Don't'cha wanna play your favorite song?"

"No time..." The girl would say blankly, and Bulkhead would drop the guitar in pure shock.

-It won't be long before Bulkhead pulls Miko aside to ask what's going on.

"This will explain everything..." Miko drones, showing Bulk a strange golden cellphone.

"A...cellphone?" Bulkhead questions. "Where'd you get that?"

"Answer it."

-Poor Bulkhead is fooled. He takes the call, and now there's two Autobots down.

-Bulkhead's mind-controlled state would definitely raise a few eyebrows. At first, it'd seem like he's just deeply lost in thought, but when it's time to battle, and he suddenly has no interest in kicking some tailpipe, it's clear something's wrong.

-Luckily, he's still pretty clumsy.

Bumblebee:

-Now, Bumblebee's situation is interesting

-He doesn't get infected by Raf.

-Rather, he gets infected trying to save Raf from becoming infected when a hypnotized Jack and Miko try to assimilate him.

-Poor Raf would be like: "Bumblebee, no! You don't have to do this to save me! I need you!"

-Unfortunately, Jack and Miko break their promise to spare Raf in exchange for Bumblebee joining them, so now all the humans are under, and nearly every Bot.

-Bumblebee's mind-controlled state is similar to when Megatron possessed him, only slightly less dangerous (I mean, come on. That was Megatron. You can't get much more dangerous than that).

-Bumblebee's is also the most obvious (besides Miko, of course). Bumblebee's such a sweetheart, it's easy to tell he isn't himself. Plus, his buzzing sounds different under mind-control. It's lower, and duller.

-Even while hypnotized, Raf is the only human who understand's Bumblebee when he speaks, so the two work together, unlike the others. The phones numb all emotions, so Bulkhead and Miko, as well as Arcee and Jack seem to have forgotten they're partners. Bee and Raf mainly work together because it's practical.

Ratchet:

-Poor Ratchet's going through it😂

-It took a LOT of fighting, but he managed to scan the others with his medical scanner.

-Ratchet is the one who figures out the phones are emitting a hypnosis-inducing frequency. Optimus is grateful for his help.

-However, with everyone else hypnotized, Ratchet gets cornered, and hypnotized himself.

-Poor guy. He tried to help them.

-Mind-controlled Ratchet is pretty scary

-Keep in mind, victims of the Pynch Phones maintain their intelligence

-Ratchet becomes a precise, calculating machine. He's gonna FIND that gold, and, if you try to stop him, he'll get you out of his way however he deems fit.

BONUS: Aftermath/Optimus is goated:

-Optimus manages to save the others by crushing the phones. Who knows? Maybe he and Megatron even had to team up.

-The others are super guilty upon snapping out of it. Bee is like a confused puppy, Bulkhead is furious, and Arcee is horrified (Jack keeps having to assure her he's ok). Ratchet has, like, a hangover because his neural net is too old for this mind-control shit.

-Optimus makes sure everyone knows it wasn't their fault. He's such a kind dude.

-Madeline Pynch should probably run. Messing with the Rescue Bots is one thing, but THIS is Team Prime. Optimus may be a pacifist, but Pynch endangered human lives. That's a biiiiig no-no when it comes to Optimus. He probably won't hurt her, per se, but she's in for a world of karma, because the other Bots aren't so forgiving,

[tfp-is-my-lifeblood-lol]

I was wondering the same thing, because TFP also mentions "oil baths" being a thing. Is that like bathing in...beer?????😂 I dunno. Arcee talks about it in that one episode, and makes it sound like a mud bath/spa type thing.

So that makes the lore even weirder. Like, where do they get the oil for an oil bath? DOES it naturally occur on Cybertron? Is Arcee bathing in alcohol?

Cybertronian oil consumption?

One of the things that I actually quite liked about transformers animated was how the bots would drink oil. Now a cursory look over the wiki makes me think this isn't the first time in the franchise cybertronians have been shown drinking it, but animated was my first time seeing the association.

That being said I'm surprised I haven't seen more fan theories and stuff surrounding how cybertronians view this or whether its an accepted part of fanon lore. (or maybe there are fan theories and I just havent seen them lol). Like, is oil seen as like the alien robot equivalent of cheap shitty beer? Is it considered an odd foreign delicacy? Is it BAD for transformers? (due to it not naturally occurring on cybertron) Does taking on earth based alt modes that use oil help with any negative effects? Is it liquified drugs?

I honestly dont know whats better XD

With that in mind reblog, reply, or tag your headcanons about cybertronians and oil consumption.

[tfp-is-my-lifeblood-lol]

Can we talk about this Rescue Bots episode (Spellbound) because I need to appreciate how TERRIFYING it is??? Especially considering it's cannon in the Aligned Universe. This is some A+ horror.

Like damn, some of Griffin Rock's technology is more powerful than even the Decepticon's tech.

Can you IMAGINE if those creepy mind-control cell phones were used in TFP?

Legit mind control that effects humans AND Cybertronians?

And it's SO UNSETTLINGLY subtle, too. The victim's voices sound like their normal selves but just SLIGHTLY off. *shutter* The voice actors did such a good job.

Just IMAGINE that in Prime.

I feel like Optimus would probably be immune (because the Matrix of Leadership is goated) but can you imagine the Jasper Trio getting mind-controlled, and all their guardians + Ratchet know SOMETHING is off, but not what? Then, slowly, the mind control spreads to the Bots? Or vice versa, the Bots go first, and the humans are like: "Something's up with my guardian."

Kinda wild that Invasion of the Body Snatchers shit 100% exists in TFP's world. Felt like I needed to acknowledge that.

Is this gonna be my next TFP headcanons post? Feeling inspired.🤔
