mars. hands held out in begging. do you have any comfort hcs/thoughts for soundwave and ravage with soundwave caring for ravage? i am cradling them so sweetly in my hands
I prepare to slumber and then you send me an ask and I’m like I WAKE.
I DOOO I DOOOOO HAVE HCS FOR SOUNDWAVE CARING FOR THE RAV
As mentioned eighty billion times before, I hc that Soundwave mimics purring my winding and unwinding his tape deck (he does it subconsciously when he’s happy/comfortable) and he utilizes that was a way of calming Ravage down and/or helping her sleep. Ravage always helped soundwave calm down and ground him by purring, so naturally Soundwave does the same for her. He’ll hold her against his chassis and purr and it calms her down quick.
Soundwave, being blessed with opposable thumbs, does a lot of grooming and frame maintenance for ravage (and the avians). He loves being able to pamper his cassettes, so when he gets his hands on some good polish, wax, and oil he will spend hours making sure ravage is clean and shiny and well oiled.
Ravage doesn’t sleep very well because she is normally paranoid and on high alert over the safety of her pack as well as general insomnia and nightmares. If she sleeps fitfully, Soundwave wakes up to calm her down and stay awake with her until she can doze off again.
EEEHEHEHEE THATS ALL I GOT OFF THE TOP OF MY TIRED HEAD I’m always happy when you come into my inbox and ask me stuff EEHEHEHEHEHE THANK YOU BLIGGHHTTTT ❤️❤️❤️❤️🛸🛸🛸

wada sez: In the Shattered Glass universe, the Scrounges are a bunch of disposable, interchangable drones under Blaster’s command; a riff on Scrounge being unique thanks to his “special arm”. This one was actually published as a Mosaic! It was Brandy Dixon’s first ever lettering effort, per a comment on TFW2005.
everything here is so classically g1. jokes that arent sure if theyre jokes. starscream declaring himself leader because megatron mispronounced a word. [takes off and immediately crashes]. the awful lip sync. optimus putting ravage in the trash. megatron and starscream bitching match. "i never miss at this range" [misses]. megatrons dance and flail. im so serious g1 is awful and one of the funniest shows ive ever seen
Soundwave was fighting dirty, he was fighting unfairly, because he has been holding onto that quiet, seething rage for Starscream. Beyond Starscream's faults, his failure to lead, and his damage to the decepticons, the sheer amount of brutality he's facing is from Soundwave's care for Ravage
After a certain thing happened, the minicons wondered why Soundwave was walking funny. When Soundwave said his hips were sore, Ravage realized Shockwave deliberately “attacked” him that night and went berserk.
