mirrored pronouns are so cool we need more instances of conditional pronouns. i want to have to figure out a formula to figure out ur pronouns at any given moment

Transformers One isn't changing the established lore y'all because there is no established lore

#everything and nothing is canon #it's about cars transforming it's inherently silly just enjoy it #i like to think of the different continuities as like splitting threats from the same concept #it's like those thought bubbles in school #core bubble is transformers and the larger bubbles are other continuities #anyways just have fun #car wars go vroom shoot

Every transformers fan has two wolves inside them: one that says every version is valid and different and there is no set canon, and one that says “He would Not Fucking say That.”

#mirage in ROTB should’ve been Jazz change my mind #<- REAL REAL REAL OH MY GOD #tf writers are allergic to putting jazz in anything #i hate it here!!! I hate it here!!! <- will stay

If your oc was a canon character what bad takes/gross mischaracterizations would the fandom come up with for them

#tf oc tag #brickback would be made a brainless enemy for Angst of the rodsquad #and their manipulative nature and actual lies would be taken at face value by fans #so its fandom interpreting a character the EXACT way they want them to #so brickback's choice to join the mutineers would be blamed on getaway #while ignoring that brickback HAD a huge hand in that revolt and decided that they were fine with everyone/many people dying #because of getaway as captain and/or planned to see megatron dead and get GONE #and brickback's manipulativeness and observational skills would be ignored in favor of making them Thunderclash's Atomizer #this would also go with brickback and thunderclash's connection and dynamics together being ignored #so they Become Wholesome or bb is written like a predator to be fended off #so their canon aroaceness is ignored if it is brought up at all #or they'd use that to be sexually manipulative which see above #or they'd be woobified #and turned into a Helpless Machine that didn't know Right from Wrong #like they aren't one of the oldest people onboard and older than both ratchet and thunderclash

Honestly? My main piece of advice for writing well-rounded characters is to make them a little bit lame. No real living person is 100% cool and suave 100% of the time. Everyone's a little awkward sometimes, or gets too excited about something goofy, or has a silly fear, or laughs about stupid things. Being a bit of a loser is an incurable part of the human condition. Utilize that in your writing.

#this is what I love about MTMTE!!! #it feels understandable WHY the characters are all poorly liked #bc they all have that lame trait so it feels more logical that they're considered losers and somewhat underdogs #than it would be if they were considered losers because they ~had to be~ and any ACTUAL loser traits of theirs went unaddressed #it was also very charming!!! #i loved swerve's parasocial thing with blurr because he WAS being weird and pushy about him!! #they're all SUCH losers I love the crew so much!! #oc tag #and it'

Listen.

EVERYBODY knows (or should) that you DO. NOT. STOP. in Vidor, Texas. 

It’s best to just run out of gas elsewhere. Whatever you do, black folks, DO NOT STOP IN VIDOR, TEXAS. 

There’s a good chance you’ll get lynched or just come up missing - and I’m not joking.

also do NOT stop in Harrison, Arkansas!!!! (relatively close to OK and MI) a nazi town with a BIG KKK organization.

The best way to keep the fash off your blog isn't having a dni banner or whatever you just have to bang pots and pans together every so often like "I love trans women and jewish people" and they scuttle away like roaches when you turn the lights on

why are people so against negative character development? characters don’t need to improve and become better people they can get worse and make mistakes and end up in a worse state than when they began and it’s just as interesting and entertaining as characters developing positively

#need to internalize this #tf oc tag #part of brickback's tragedy is that they believe that they were “better” when they were younger #and they're right
