Movie Sunstreaker roleplay blog, all images used are not mine unless otherwise stated Tracking the tag 'goldenstreak'

6,040 posts

It has been brought to my attention that some Tumblr users are using commissioned images on their profiles, I would appreciate it if you would take them down as those images were purchased goods. And you do not have permission to use them from myself or from the commissioner.

This Sunstreaker image in particular is the one brought up, so if you are using it on your profile, please take it down. Thank you.

Reblogging this here so people following me will know this too.

I don't want the artwork that I have commissioned to be used on any other roleplaying blogs because it is my design, and is something that I paid money for, therefore I own partial rights to the image. And my partial rights allow me to say who can/cannot use the image, so, I'm saying that I don't want anyone using it.

My answer will still be no, but it would be polite of you all to at least ask before just going ahead and using the artwork in your profile.

If you really want to play another movie universe Sunstreaker, I have NO problem with that! Just please design your own ideas, or find someone to commission a design from. Even though my Sunstreaker is based on a previously existing character, pretty much everything I have put into him is entirely original. I don't even draw the actual Chevorlet logo on my Sunstreaker, even though he's technically the same model as Sideswipe.

Sorry this got a little lengthy, but it really irks me when people do this...

"Alright." He buckled himself in, rather unneccessary really, but better safe than sorry. He could survive getting thrown out of an ordinary car. Getting thrown through a Transformer’s windshield though? Yeesh.

"…So who was that guy, the black Lambo I mean. I don’t remember a ‘Con using an alt-mode like that. And not working with humans anyway."

As soon as Riou was in, Sunstreaker took off down the highway. He thought about the question for a moment... He knew the name of the Lamborghini, but he really didn't know much about the mech. Only that he was a bounty hunter, and went after Sideswipe fro some reason.

"... His name is Lockdown, he's some kind of bounty hunter. He's probably a Decepticon lookin' for Optimus. As for workin' with humans, I have no idea what's goin' on behind that..."

"Im Crosshairs. I assumed Swiper told you about my visit? I was worried about him…." He said as he crossed his arms, shifting his weight.

"Swiper? What kind of stupid pet name is that for Sideswipe?"

He scoffed and folded his arms as well, almost mocking the green mech.

When Sunstreaker transformed, he stopped for a moment. Surely the mech couldn’t be serious. ”…If they’re tracking us, or tracking me, I’m a liability you realize, right?” He said with a frown on his face. ”We’ll lead them right to where your brother is.” He pushed himself up. ”I…” He trailed off as he stood there, watching the open door. He had been expecting an agreement with his idea. So for a moment, he just stared.

Finally, he tossed the helmet in, and followed suit, getting into the passenger side and closing the door with a light slam to make sure it stuck. ”…Thanks.” He said, in a quieter tone. ”We should worry about the alt-mode later, your brother is a top priority. If you need to scan something just do it while we’re driving. You won’t get anything fancy but it should cover up the paint-job and throw them off the trail.”

He didn’t say it, but he was glad he’d been grabbed along. He could help them. He could do something. Now he just had to live up to whatever expectation they’d have.

"Don't worry about it, I know how to throw them off."

As soon as Riou was in, he took off down the road. It had been a long time since Sunstreaker had shared a ride with anyone, it felt odd.

"Just hang on, I'll find something on the way."

OOC: My Current Schedule

So I think this needs to be posted somewhere so folks don't get mad or impatient with me being slow to reply.

I'm currently gearing up for a convention at the end of the month, and almost all of my time awake is going towards getting all of my merchandise ready. It's all sculpting and sewing stuff too, and I don't have a sewing machine, so it's very time consuming. I do still want to roleplay with everyone of course, I'll just be very sparse and slow with my replies.

So here's my current schedule:

July 8-15 will be consisting of me sewing, sculpting, and just getting prepared in general for this convention.

July 15-21 is when silver-sides mun will be visiting me! I have no idea what we will be doing while they're here, but RPing will likely be in there for our night schedules.

July 22 is my catch up day, and I will most likely NOT be available on Tumblr.

July 23-28 Is Megaplex! I will not be online at all for the entire extended weekend.

I'll be around all the time after that however!

This schedule also goes for all of my other accounts too but I'm hardly ever on them anyway...

"I was…in a hurry." Riou panted. He couldn’t have been happier to see the robot, though it was hard to show. He was already starting to shake, his hands first. He fell back onto his ass on the ground, finally reaching up and tearing the helmet from his head. Cool summer air over his face. He was soaked still, water dripping from the helmet.

Time was of the essence, but… “Sideswipe was right.” He said, finally. ”You…you guys are being hunted. When I went to the dam, there were a bunch of black trucks. Guys with armor and guns. Only way they’d have known is if they’d been listening in somehow.” He swallowed. ”There was a black Lamborghini as well. I…I walked right by him. I had no idea. I think he’s working with the spooks.”

He took a moment then continued. ”He snuck on me, demanded to know who I was getting the energon too. He said humans weren’t supposed to be helping you. He shot at me too. I would’ve fought back but…” He gestured to the two containers. ”…I couldn’t afford to lose these. It was all I could manage. I was hoping for four but…all I got was two.” Pause. ”I’m sorry. I’ve no idea if it’s even close to enough, I had to jump out a window to evade him.”

Another pause. He was thinking hard now. ”I’m sure they know you told me to come here. I’ll bet anything that Lambo will be here with the rest of them.” He bit his lip now, chewing. ”…You need to take the energon and go. Get back to your brother. Move him away from wherever you guys are hiding. I wouldn’t be surprised if they’re already mobilizing against you.”

It was unspoken, but Riou had left the implication obvious. Leave me here.

"That's actually all we should need for now. Sideswipe needs it more than me anyway."

He bent down and grabbed the crates, stuffing them into his subspace. He noticed the odd tone Rious was having as well.

"... What, you think I'm just gonna leave you behind? You just risked your skin to get us energon, you're comin' with me to help."

Sunstreaker crouched down and transformed back into his vehicle mode. He opened his passenger side door for Riou.

"Get in."

>goldenstreak

Crosshairs had wandered from Sideswipe, to search the area. He never expected to come upon Sunstreaker, so quickly. He nodded in respect to the golden mech, crouching lightly as he looked over the area.

"Sunstreaker." he said softly in a way of greeting.

Sunstreaker nodded back, a bit wary of the new face.

"Hey..."

Riou eventually dragged himself from the river. He had to be sure said black Lambo wasn’t trailing him. Even then, he was more interested in his precious cargo than making sure he effectively hid his trail. He hated it. He hated every part of it. Sideswipe was right. They were hunting them. They were being tracked. Even worse, they had a robot on their side.

Could it be a ‘Con?Was this deja vu to Chicago all over again? Hopefully not. The coordinates came through and he immediately cut the line, memorizing them before he wiped the messages out. Leave nothing. No trace at all. Nothing that could be used against them. For a moment, he wondered if Sunstreaker actually trusted him.

Maybe this was just something being done to lead him away. They had to know calls of any kind might be traced back to them. And if the Lambo was hunting them… He wouldn’t have blamed them if that was the case. They didn’t know if he was trustworthy or not. They couldn’t afford the risk. Still, despite a crushing wave of ugly thought, he pulled himself up, and began his shallow, hopping gait across the empty countryside.

He got to the road. There was no-one there. Maybe he was early. He couldn’t be sure Sunstreaker even had a head-start on him. That didn’t keep that one nagging piece of himself from whispering that he could’ve been abandoned. No, stop that. He thought to himself. He wouldn’t have asked me to try and get this energon for them if that were true!

It was still dark. There were many hours before the sun came up.

Sunstreaker raced down the road, almost certain that humans were likely on his trail by now. He knew he could reach the coordinates before they caught up, but getting away would be difficult. He was going to need a way to disguise himself to get back to Sideswipe and Crosshairs.

It wasn't long before he came to the empty span of rural highway where he told Riou to meet him, and there he was, waiting for Sunstreaker.

"You got here fast."

He drove up and transformed, skidding to a halt in front of the human. He stood up and took a quick glance around. It was late, and they were in the middle of nowhere, nobody would be around for hours.

"We don't have much time, and I need to find a new alternate mode after this. The humans know they're looking for a yellow Corvette, so I gotta throw them off somehow..."

He hurts. Even after cushioning his fall the water hurt. That and getting smacked into a wall. He’s made to deflect impact, but that doesn’t mean a blow doesn’t hurt. Dammnit all.

:—got the—rgon!:

:ucker—black Lambo—lmost got m—!:

'Black Lambo' Sunstreaker heard that part loud and clear. Wasn't Lockdown one of those?

/I don't know if you can hear me, but try to meet me at these coordinates/

He quickly sent some coordinates via text message to Riou and hopped up from his sitting position. Crosshairs was tending to Sideswipe, so Sunstreaker felt a bit more at ease leaving his brother there.

"I'll be back soon..."

And with that, he raced out to meet with Riou at the coordinates. An isolated section of road seemed like a good place after all.

((Off to bed for me!))

((Mun note: I hate the thing people slap on Sunstreaker of how he 'hates being called Sunny' or something like that, but it's still a part of my own Sunstreaker in a way. No, he doesn't like nicknames, but he doesn't make it a huge argument point. Everyone has a nickname for him, he just chooses to ignore it. He's somewhat okay with Sideswipe calling him Sunny, but Sides is the only one who gets a free pass))

"Y-yeah? You called him," he asked. His digits twitched. "Crosshairs is close."

"Actually he called me." he glanced to the entrance to the cave. "Good, I can go meet Riou after Crosshairs gets here."
