Well i mean in truth im a coward and i havent made a sideblog for this stuff

That’s completely okay! It took me a few months to work up the courage to make this sideblog. I believe in you! For now I am going to call you the Blitztron Anon :]
For those of you not willing to copy-paste the link into your search bar, the image is under the cut:
You know Blitzwing’s getting the best spike of his life and I am DROOLING
Proportions are SO hard to get right, especially for cartoons like Animated, but you got them PERFECTLY! I sincerely applaud you, and hope that we can be friends in the future
i do like your idea of it, i addore adore the "living weapon" (its ups and its downs) trope, will always be a winner for me, and Blitzwing being so willing to give Megatron everything and everything up in this one-sided dynamic is my cup of tea! I also think Blitzwing agreeing to the triple-changer procedure for Megatron is cool but honestly that bit drives me nuts for lore reasons I like to tamper with.
As for your little Blitztron annon here, if I'm being more comedic it's "hey starscream's not here because hes a little traitorous shit and between Blitzwing and Lugnut Blitzwing's the closest to Starscream so...."
However, I'm not really a nice person. I like it horrible.
I've read a couple fan works that portray Blitzwing as desperate for connection. By virtue of his unstable processor and aberrant frame, not a lot of bots are willing to be close to him. My take is a bit like yours, with Blitzwing being rather obsessive, but skewing Megatron to be a bit more active. I enjoy the idea of Megatron being cunning and manipulative, I entertain the notion of the warlord bending his weapon in his servos.
Reformatted into a triple-changer to gain favor of the Lord, subsequently treated as a freak by everyone else. Megatron's smart; he keeps his inner circle full of the useful and the loyal. Blitzwing's the only triple-changer, and Megatron's the only one who doesn't treat him like something to be feared. Because it's Blitzwing who fears Megatron. It's Megatron's digits coiled around the cord. But the only one to look at him beyond the freak he believes he is is Megatron. The only one to give him a little of the care he so desperately lacks. He's loyal because there is no one else. Megatron knows this. It might have just been just lucky coincidence, but who's going to tell?
Maybe I'll have it end sweet if I ever write something for it. Maybe Megatron decides he actually likes his weapon for more than his brute strength. Maybe Blitzwing works through his own issues and finds more stability in his unstable self. Maybe not. We'll just have to see.
(Also, I love the idea of a Megablitz fan kiddo! I can't wait to see them!)
Yes yes yes yes yes You are my friend now
It’s about the isolation and finding connection only with the one you changed yourself for and Megatron would absolutely abuse this power he has but. Grabs him by the throat. He will love. He will realize that he wants a better future for the next generation of Cybertron, not just him and his mecha. He will fight for the power to give that future, instead of just to dominate.
(Insert joke about dominating Blitzwing in private because you know that mech is a bottom)
I have a vague idea of what Ripwire would look like. You know how Windblade has those turbines built into her wings? Ripwire has the same wings because that’s how I imagine a helicopter and a jet would mix. Baby’s also got some tank treads, but they act more like extra armor than functional treads since his parents are naturally flier-frames. I imagine him being more grey with purple as his secondary and that tan/beige color being simple accents. And also pointy as all hell, have you seen his parents before they scanned their Earth alts?
Alrighg that’s enough about my fanchild, back to your regularly scheduled valveplug.
I’m not sure if you can send DMs to side blogs, but if you can then I’m totally up to chatting with you privately! If not, let me know
im actually curious, how do you view the Blitztron relationship working? b/c i got my own way(s) (plural, it skews sometimes) but im thinkin you've got your own way of thinkin about it and Im curious because theres not a lot of it around, yaknow? (I've only read one-two fics of it)
also your image

Houghghghghgh I have so many thoughts! (Once again the linked art is under the read more)
I am an absolute sucker for “I want to give everything to you including myself” sort of things like
In my headcanon, the reformatting surgery was something that Blitzwing (plus Octane and Astrotrain, “borrowed” from others’ headcanons) volunteered for. He said yes because then he would be more useful to the Decepticons and, more specifically, Megatron. And sure it’s unhealthy but also it’s The Decepticons, very little of them have healthy relationships.
It’s also partially the power dynamic. You’ve got this ancient warmonger and his pet living weapon and I just. Megatron watching as Blitzwing tears into another mech on the battlefield until he’s told to stop by Megatron himself. Blitzwing holding back on attacking a disloyal Decepticon cough cough Starscream because he wants to be perfect for his leader.
And then, maybe, in the bedroom, he can be that perfect Decepticon, just in a different way. He lives to serve his Lord any way he is ordered.
Anyways it’s not very healthy at first because one side is almost obsessive and the other doesn’t take it seriously because Megatron’s a little busy trying to win a war. It gets better as time goes on because damnit I want my boy to be happy.
I actually started shipping Megablitz when I thought about some things regarding the AllSpark shattering at the end of S1 and it’s destruction awakening long-dormant lines of code and activating the good ol’ nanite production and gestation tanks in every Cybertronian that has them. And, of course, the heat/rut cycles because mechanical beings acting animalistic is my JAM. I can spread that shit on toast and eat it all day.
So yeah no it can start out a couple different ways. Situation 1: It’s known among a lot of older mecha that Cybertronians used to reproduce sexually before the AllSpark became Cybertron’s primary source of life. Situation 2: The nanites and gestation tanks are actually a backup system in case the AllSpark failed for whatever reason. Either way, everyone gets really horny, so they all start to go at it. And interfacing is done recreationally because hey it feels good and has little long-term consequences and whoops that’s a sparklet. That is many sparklets. Everywhere. What do we do with all these tiny blobs that just came out of like half the population?
(I’ve actually got a Megablitz kid in the works; his name is Ripwire.)
So yeah no basically it boils down to “I want to give my all to you” x “I didn’t think you were actually serious about this and whoops I caught feelings for you” plus also some AllSpark shenanigans
This ended up a LOT longer than I expected it to but hey, that just shows how passionate I am about this. I’m looking forward to hearing your takes on it, Blitztron Anon!
As promised, here is the art they made:
I love the steam coming out of their mouths and weaponry, really adds a little something that I love!
hhey its ur uh... whats it. Blitzttron anon again-
I made another image of blitz and megs b/c im actually getting interested in both sides of the ship and holey shit its making the gears in my. im y. my brain. its making them turn. Is it okay if I send it to you? (Asking b/c I don't just want to drop something random you'd be uncomfortable with) (I'm a nice guy i sewar)
Absolutely! You seem super cool and I’m excited to actually have somebody to talk about them with!
ehy so ive he ard (scrolled back through your entire blog) u like blitzttron with sub blitzwing.
Coincidentally i am god biggest simp for sub blitzwing (i want to get my hands on him so baddd). i f I were to draw blitzwing getting fucked stupid by Megatron would you enter a [S u s p i c i o u s i m g u r l i n k] to view it?
YES FUCKING PLEASE I AM S T A R V E D
On a calmer note: I know Tumblr don’t like the spicy stuff so like. You gotta do what you gotta do.
And half the time I can’t see links on Twitter since I don’t have an account. So yeah Imgur would be the next best thing
I am also being confronted with the mortifying ordeal of being known but FUCK YEAH MORE MEGABLITZ FANS
