It’s very VERY gundam inspired… err kudos if you can identify which one I based shockwave off of

Messaging people for the first time is so hard. What am I supposed to say? Like, "You seem really odd and your blog intrigues me. Do you want to have philosophical conversations or perhaps talk about fictional characters?" What! Whatever. I will just follow you back and stare at your blog with my big beautiful brown eyes.

I'm using "On Unicron's horns" for "somewhere far away from anything of importance". It's actually a corruption of russian colloquial "у чёрта на рогах", can be translated literally "on the horns of a devil/imp".

Я так и говорю в обычной жизни -- на Юникроновых рогах.

Cybertronian Colloquialisms - Primes Edition

So we've all heard "By the AllSpark!" or "What in the Pit?" or "Oh Primus" in our TF media. However, I feel like TF writers are missing out on the goldmine that is colloquialisms invoking the different Primes. So, here is a small collection of such colloquialisms, and please, feel free to add more if you have any of your own you use.

"Primus below!" - Exclamation similar to "God above!", invoking the fact that Primus is the core of Cybertron.

"Vector give me patience" - Often paired with "because if Prima gives me strength, I'm going to need bail money." The go-to for when somebot if getting on your last nerves.

"To Alchemist!" - A popular drinking toast, to thank Alchemist Prime for inventing high grade.

"The Three Below" - Refers to Solus, Onyx, and Micronus, the three Primes who formed the Well of AllSparks

"Maximum Blessings on you" - a stealth insult/curse from some dialects, where "Maximum" and "Maximo's" are nearly indistinguishable. As Liege Maximo was the Prime of Lies and Trickery, it's a fitting way to wish someone ill.

“Solus’s slag pit” - Used for something incredible, awful, and incredibly awful. Often used to refer to the latest high society fashion mess.

"Find peace or take it up with the Fallen." - In other words, calm down or screw off.

“As you say, my Liege” - A condescending remark towards a person who’s attempting to lie, cheat or mislead.

Again, if you have any primal colloquialisms you use for your fics, reblog and share them with the rest of us.

Black kites and whistling kites are among a group of bird species known as firehawks. They intentionally spread fires in order to catch prey.

Tfw you find out your gay best friend/coworker is secretly a car and now the government is after you

This… AU? has been sitting in my head since I saw the Bumblebee movie. Me wondering “huh what if Knockout were in a live action TF movie except one of the good ones” led down a rabbit hole that ended up in “Knockout’s been hiding out on earth working as a doctor in his holoform and ends up being good friends with June Darby who later gets caught up in the whole mess when his actual identity is inevitably exposed”. Not really an AU of anything in regard to TFP other than that’s the series Knockout and June come from, more of a “Knightverse what-if”.

Since mans is a voidwalker, he would not be able to survive in the overworld normally

Logically this means undergo a life-altering procedure to fuse yourself with a robotic suit, getting rid of about 70% of your organic mass in the process

He's one of the very few voidwalkers to ever undergo such a procedure and one of the very first to do so succesfully

Basically all that's left of him is his respiratory system and parts of his nervous system (as well as some spare tendons fused to finer mechanical parts, which, in combination with leftover nerves, allow for finer movement, such as in his forearms, allowing him to control his fully robotic hands much better)

Only some of his original vocal chords left and some rather aged speakers means he sounds characteristically.. tinny

He breathes air that is filtered and reduced in oxygen by the backpack on his armor

He has no need for a normal communicator; he has a communication system wired right into his brain (check the little antenna!!)

Pressure change between the void and the overworld means his organic eyes had to go :// He has bionic ones instead :)) They're not what you see on his visor though; in addition to filtering some light frequencies it functions as a display for emoting (mostly in the forms of emoticons, obviously)

Sleeping in a bed with the armor would be awkward, so instead it has a system to lock itself in place! X sleeps standing up and it's as funny as it can sometimes be unsettling

He's a bit overdue for a medical/mechanical check-up at this point, but really it's nothing a bit of duct tape and a soldering iron can't fix ;)))

When asked he says he could never regret shedding his organic form; he quite likes living in the overworld and running a server of his own :))

Favorite bird genre has got to be 'that's literally just a dinosaur'

Some suggestions for your growing pet family

1) if you have a spare room turn it into a animal area for some of the animals and make some zones like on a table or empty shelf for the little bugs and a car we for the new cats and so on so each one has their space.

2) make an out door inclosure for the birds and those who can’t sit still but can roam and so the birds don’t fly into anything in the house

3) for the grey cat try visiting the location once and awhile with treats or something to I warn it’s trust (ps take gloves so you don’t get scratched at first

4) get ‘em checked out by a vet so they are healthy

5) try to give them a bath if you can since it’s hard to say what they might be carrying and incase they might have fleas

These are only ideas since by the looks of it your little pet family is growing more and more and you might wanna start planning before it gets to late.

I’ll do the best I can!!

Keeper -- a short comic about an angel meeting a robotic lighthouse keeper that doesn't know the world has already ended. Made in about 18 hours for a 24-hour 24-page* black and white comic challenge (that I arrived late to, ha.)

*the actual submission does not include the cover, which was created after the fact for this post.

This was a really great learning experience as someone who's... never really made a completed comic. I ended up really attached to the story by the end of the project (possibly due to all-nighter deliriousness lol) and ultimately am very proud of what I made.There are some things I'd still like to change, particularly text placement, but in keeping with the spirit of the challenge I've elected to leave it as is.

Minerals formed by serpentinization include the serpentine group minerals (antigorite, lizardite,

lizardite is formed by serpentinization <- things said by a modern scientist and definitely not some kind of alchemist
