About Me

Madison | 24 | Vey/Vem, They/Them | AuDHD | Transformers Side Blog | Main Blog: @commandant-queer | Follows come from @stalin-bot

---------

Welcome to my personal brand of hell!

This blog is dedicated to Transfomers, whether it be the bayverse, Transformers Prime, Transformers One, or any other piece of Transformers media I am about to devour with a fervor that would make even Megatron tremble.

!! THIS BLOG IS NOT SPOILER FREE !!

If you wish to avoid spoilers, I will be tagging them with #spoilers and #TFO spoilers . After a few months of the movie being out, they will no longer be tagged. Just an fyi.

What you can expect from me:

My art journey. While I'm solid in other areas, learning how to draw cybertronians is a beast of its own. be prepared to see the long journey it takes to be decent at it.

Fanfictions. Fanfictions I'm writing and yapping about fanfictions I've read. I am feral and devour media at a pace faster than the speed of light.

Art reblogs. Whether it be funny, cool, or otherwise deemed interesting, its important to take inspiration from other creators. And, just plain fun to share.

Long winded rants about my personal headcanons. You might want to read them, you might not. It'll be mostly queer posting, and projection- as almost all headcanons are. Will be tagged with #headcanon and #[character's name]headcanon

Ships. I will have a ship list further down. It is inevitably going to grow with time. Its important to remember: im an adult and i can ship whatever the hell i want. cringe sets you free. with that in mind, for some of the more toxic ships, their nuance is not lost on me.

sometimes i post 18+ stuff. it's always tagged as NSFW.

Lots and lots of yapping. My personal posts are tagged as #yapping, so block that if you dont want to see it. I just like to talk into the void. If you also enjoy yapping, please for the love of god, join me in the brain rot.

PLEASE INTERACT:

Artists

Requests

Send me headcanons and factoids. I am a sponge, bone dry and ready to soak in everything the fanbase has to offer

DO NOT INTERACT:

Zionists (just so you know, Optimus would crush yo ass. From the River to the Sea, motherfuckers 🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸)

Conservatives

Any brand of -phobe

Dont come crying to me about hating my ships. I don't care. I've been in fandom spaces for longer than you've probably been alive.

Minors. Nothing against yall, just a lil uncomfy because this blog can be kinda spicy sometimes.

SHIPS! :D

It's a short list, for now. Ships will be tagged as shown on their bulletin point. For quick reference of how I view them:

- [S] Sexual

- [R] Romantic

- [QPP] Queer Platonic Partners

- [T] Toxic

With that out of the way...

imagining optimus prime cuddling ratchet as they sleep. imagining optimus prime having nightmares about the war and whimpering in his sleep. imagining ratchet waking up because of the noises (hes a light recharger) and gently petting optimus' face. imagining ratchet cooing at him softly. imagining ratchet holding optimus' helm to his spark to somehow signal to his sleeping form that there is still life surrounding him. imagining optimus prime calming down in ratchets arms. imagining ratchet placing his chin on optimus' helm and falling back into recharge.

Sometimes he needs a reminder that enough of any work will burn you out just as much as any dangerous patrol or enemy encounter would.

I just really wanted to draw Optimus huge hand on Ratchet's shoulder...

Omg, I just randomly stumbled upon this and like. lksajfksaöjdfkl js.

Thank you so, so much for the rec! I can't even describe to you how happy this made me and how honoured I feel. I may have a cried a little when I first saw this because I'm a sap.

Please, everyone go check out all the other lovely authors and stories. Everything I've read from them has been absolutely amazing.

And don't forget to check out OP (AO3 profile) and her stories, either!

Virus of the Spark is an absolutely amazing re-telling of Sick Mind and thus holds, and has been holding, a special place in my heart for a while now.

I only discovered Warmth Amongst the Darkness today, but I adore it so much and it already holds a very, very special place in my heart. First of all, there is so much love between these two old gay robots that I thought my heart might just melt from reading it. I also definitely cried while reading this because of how beautiful and angsty and fluffy and COMFORTING it was to an ache I hadn't even known needed to be soothed. I'm definitely going to come back to this story in the future. A LOT.

re the transformers movies & the military, interesting to note that in the 80s transformers cartoon it wasn't that the Decepticons chose to turn into military hardware bcos they were evil but rather that the Decepticons were ontologically evil because they were built to be weapons. which is a whole other can of worms honestly.
