I've meant to say this for a while, so
I think this is the first time I've been 100% all-in on-board with fankids (and it's all thanks to you).
Post-Cyberverse, life seems to be generally pretty peaceful; no on-going war, inter-faction fights, or outside threats. Both jetfire and sky-byte will be able to find work that they enjoy, but neither is particularly stressed about a leadership position. They have a potential support system of friends. I think it’s a pretty decent life to bring kids into, and I can see them succeeding.
And they’d be so obnoxious about it too (in the best of ways).
Because you KNOW they’d be competitive and theatrical with the whole thing. Their coworkers would hear every unnecessary detail, be shown every unnecessary baby picture. Constant. Unending. Not escapable. Each would go out of their way to be the better parent in silly ways. Nonstop. Ceaseless. All the time. Those kids would be stuck on them like velcro, they wouldn’t stop carrying them around with them for ages. They would love those kids so hard, and tell them they could do anything they set their little sparks to. Kinda ironic, since they're disasters in every other way lmao.
Thank you always for sharing your art and headcanons <3
I wish Cyberverse had another 40 minute episode about how they rebuild Cybertron, without any battles or life-threatening situations. Also it would be great if they included a karaoke scene or something like that (if I’m not mistaken, the voice actors suggested this idea, and damn, I’m sure it would have been Jetfire’s moment to shine. You all remember how he talks, right?)
But getting back to the topic of fankids- yeah, that's why I like them here too, and I agree with every word you say. Sky-Byte and Jetfire really are annoying parents haha 😭😭😭 the girls will probably be embarrassed about this when they’re older (Ignis definitely will) but that won’t make them love them any less :)
Other mechs will wonder why, out of everyone, it was them who ended up with kids (I like the idea that having kids is a huge rarity)
a silly visualization of this chaos
and thank you for supporting my art 🦈💖
