HONOR IS ORDER

Ultra Magnus, Commander of the Autobots, reporting for duty. Adored by Wren.

About

   ULTRA MAGNUS was once a member of the ELITE GUARD of the planet CYBERTRON, a planet once rife with lifeforms known to the universe as TRANSFORMERS. He now serves as a COMMANDER of the AUTOBOT forces. In the wake of the WAR, he finds himself unmoored…

     BEFORE we begin, you should know:

for rules of engagement, please see my RULES page.

based in TRANSFORMERS: PRIME; i honestly don’t know much about the other universes with magnus. tfp is my specialty. any and all information about Magnus will be listed under HISTORY. i’m open to multiverse interactions.

this blog takes cues from THE COVENANT OF PRIMUS, hence Ultra Magnus’ altered history from the show.

Muse Specific:

Ultra Magnus still has a claw fashioned by Ratchet serving as his right servo, and it is doubtful he will find a replacement anytime soon. Even if he was offered one, it is doubtful that he would take it – current resources are better allocated elsewhere rather than repairing him. Besides, it functions just fine for his needs, most of the time.

The assumed timeline for him is post-War, during the rebuilding process of Cybertron. He is currently working on leaving, however, and wants to find those still lost to the stars.

He was once a Wrecker before the Caste system and Sentinel Prime, and while those experiences shaped his initial views of the world, they have mostly been restructured by his time as an Elite Guardsmecha. He is very, very old – possibly older than Ratchet, though he wears it a lot less than the Autobot medic does.

His relationship with Wheeljack is… complicated. Before Sentinel Prime convinced Magnus to join him in Iacon, he and Wheeljack were nearly inseparable. Magnus’ decision to leave did not go over well, hence their tendency to argue and let anger decide for them. However, as time has progressed they have been making careful steps towards amendment, though things don’t always go as planned.

He has a tendency for self-neglect. His paint could always use a touch-up, and he waits before getting repairs until others have been seen to first, though not necessarily out of the goodness of his spark. Minor things he either does himself or lets slide, because he doesn’t have time or resources could be better spent on other things.

He takes everything at face value, unless the person in question has given him reason to do otherwise (coughs Wheeljack coughs).

[looksmaxxing-magnus]

probably should post on main bc its ultra magnus but its hella old sooo

[gooshyeyes]

hate on rid15 all you want but atleast he's alive and thriving

[lesbianambulon]

this is how I see him on the daily

[red-in-revolt]

Redstrike hums and smiles, giving a nod. He sends a quick message to Batgotti over their spark-connection to look into the proper permits and ensure they had been received before he glances up at his work and then Ultra Magnus. His smile is warm and his gaze almost too familiar with how sharp his green gaze pierces Ultra Magnus' frame. "You don't need to do that, but I appreciate it all the same." His tail sweeps behind him momentarily and he flicks his index finger over the tab of the can.

He looks Ultra Magnus over and chuckles, "Perhaps not shock, but I suppose it is surprising. You seem...by the book. Though I hardly mean it as an insult." He adds the last part firmly, ensuring Ultra Magnus is aware that he doesn't mean to shame him for being particularly lawful.

He tilts his head and carefully reaches out to gesture to a small scratch of paint on Ultra Magnus' frame. "Hardly. Painting a living mech is far more difficult than an unliving wall. A wall doesn't walk around, bend, or have opinions. Painting a living bot is a challenge I enjoy and adore. And my offer still stands. Your paint looks good at it's base and it's clear you've taken care of it to the best of your abillity... but I know the war wasn't always kind and caring for one's paintjob is a luxury when you're fighting on the front lines." He gestures to a particular bit of scratching against the larger bot's shoulder.

"Plasma fire. Color-correcting coat and wax are good at covering up the damage while it heals but it won't hide the damage completely unless you take it down to the bare protoform and paint a new base. Which can hurt, which is why most mechs avoid doing it." He smiles and gestures to his mural. "But I'm not most mechs."

[forgedwrecker]

The deflection is noted, and Ultra Magnus again gives a polite nod of his helm to the red mech. "Understood. I look forward to seeing the finished work." A low hum of engines belies Ultra Magnus' consideration for the topic at hand, blue optics tracing the path those servos carve near his plating. No physical contact has been made, but the Autobot Commander is ever aware of the space he occupies and how far others are willing to invade it. Redstrike has been incredibly respectful of his personal bubble thus far, a fact that Ultra Magnus appreciates more than he can say with words.

"You have a good eye," he says; the damage that Redstrike has noted isn't by any means fresh. Over the course of the War, Ultra Magnus hadn't seen fit to cover much of the damage he had sustained; more than likely, the next dawn would have greeted him with another blast to add to the collection, rendering any touch-ups moot. Now, in the postdrome of the War, he has no real reason as to not have covered old wounds -- other than a niggling feeling that he is not deserving of such a luxury, not when there is still much to be done.

"If pain were the issue, I would have already repainted. I couldn't deign to pull you away from your work here; I have taken up much of your time as is," he says by way of answer. It is not a no, but it's not a yes, either -- a careful sidestep while still giving Redstrike a chance to back out of his offer.

Hope u don't need those blankets, cause they're Jazz's now.

Jazz is most welcome to them; Ultra Magnus rarely finds himself in a position in which he is in need. Still, an optical ridge is raised in his general direction as he watches Jazz collect them.

"While I do not object to the taking, may I inquire as to your need?"

I like the idea that Magnus likes Knockout.

Yes, and the action takes place after the war (when Nock went over to the side of the auto).

And guess who Nock is talking to.
