I have this idea for a story about Dust Man's right arm having the word "hazard" written on it. The idea for such is that he doesn't feel so good after touching a weird thing and having a weird dream immediately after, cuz it knocked him out - then at the climax he gets possessed by something.
First it was about the Evil Energy, then weird creepy centipede-bots, or maybe worms, then after I saw the "many-eyed seraphim" post with the seldom-used 7-O Cyrillic letter, I decided on a weird eyeball-parasite.
And just today I've come up with the idea that Dust Man slowly gets possessed by the weird eyeball-parasite, dubbed the Many-Eyed Seraph, over the course of the story. The possession takes effect by Dust Man growing septuple-pupils, and it's seriously starting to weird his family (and Junk Man) out, especially as he starts placing weird trances and visions on the poor robots, and at one point he tries to delete Ring Man's memories and steal them for himself!
Kalinka remembers hearing about this Many-Eyed Seraph from Duo, who explained that a Wind Soldier once fell victim to the parasite. It took everything Duo and his Soldier friends had to offer to free the poor birdie, but Duo's caretakers had to finish the job.
[Start ID. A digital drawing of Gabriel and V1 from Ultrakill in super-saturated, pixellated colors. It seemingly takes place during phase two of his second fight, judging by Gabe's bright yellow-cyan wings and the consequent blush shining through his helmet. Gabriel is pictured on the left, facing the left side of the screen with his head turned to V1, preparing to strike them with the bloodied spear in his right hand. Small but frequent splatters of blood dot his armor and outstretched wings, fabrics torn through in places. V1 is on the right, aiming its piercer revolver at his face. Their arms are stacked in pairs on either side, idle Feedbacker and Knuckleblaster on the left and Whiplash tucked atop their default arm on the right. Both parties are stylized to resemble insects, Gabe with beetle wings and a halo in the shape of antennae, and V1 with the four wings, four arms, short antennae and bristles expected of a dragonfly. End ID]
woah.... happy 1 year anniversary to gay people
also a couple alts (background removed, just gabe, and just v1, respectively) in hopes it'll be a little easier to understand what's going on and all!
additionally once again: special thanks to @magnumopos and @muzzleroars , neither of which I have actually spoken to in my life but both of which are credited with partially inspiring this! (dedicated section under the readmore due to the fact I do not generally tag people at all ever and wasn't sure if I should, but thought it was worth mentioning!) The former for giving me the wonderful idea of dragonfly V1, the latter for drawing V1 like a strange little creature + for the feedbacker plate, I enjoy both your works :]
(retroactively, on march 27th of 2024, assigning them a full bingo with credit to deep-space-lines. ehehehehe)
Lowkey, I think one of my favorite little things about Rescue Bots is how we get to learn a little more about Optimus when he shows up. Like, not war stuff or Orion Pax stuff, but just little things about Optimus.
One of his favorite Earth stories is The Little Engine That Could. Does he read in his spare time and if so, how did he find Little Engine?
He tells Heatwave that he has also been learning from humans. What has he learned? The phrase "Nothing much, double dutch." Who the fuck taught him that? My money's on Miko. Jack would not have the audacity to add that to Prime's vernacular.
He has a motherfuckin' rocket powered car carrier capable of hauling four bots. And since Team Prime had four four-wheelers on the team prior to Darkness Rising, you could reasonably assume that he has used it with Cliff, Bee, Bulk, and Ratch
Optimus knows what a pogo stick is. That isn't anything noteworthy, I just think it's funny.
I made this yesterday for DeviantArt, but am posting it here on Tumblr today on the reveal that a seldom-used Cyrillic letter, ꙮ, is well on its way to being much less so.
And here's the post I made in November or so explaining the Many-Eyed Seraph in question, mostly outlining the basic story.
I have decided to start a chain. Reblog and put your comfort/relatable character (and a reasoning if you desire). And hope people have fun with this! I'll start,
Friends who I am tagging because why not, they may be interested: @bylerr-swift @bumblebeezstuffz
Edit: I forgot to mention, but multiple are allowed. The more the merrier, GO NUTS PEOPLE!

Hey guys just fyi, I haven’t seen anything about this, but I don’t get a follower notification when a bot follows me anymore.
My follower count will magically go up, but my activity doesn’t notify me of being followed by them. But when I click on my list of followers, there they all are.
At first I thought this was an issue with my tumblr specifically, but I still get notified when other people follow me, so I think that the bots just found a work around.
