I’m testing out some new pens so enjoy this shitty scribble that I have no plans on finishing.

Buddy is NOT mixing up his speech bubbles 😭🙏

Realized that I had free will and locked in for what will eventually be a Bumble Prime expressions page.

Preview — Initial Reactions, Side B

Up for a drive? He couldn’t stop staring at the glyphs scripted out on his communication holo. They taunted him and Bumblebee nearly warped the metal from how tightly he clenched the mechanism built into his gauntlet.

After radio silence on both their ends, here Breakdown reached out without mentioning their argument. Not a word about making amends or even acknowledging the rumors Bee set into motion about moving on from him. Just, Up for a drive?

It proved, without a shadow of doubt, that Swindle had told the truth to Bee— Breakdown actually thought they were just on ‘break’ and that with some time for Bee to cool off they could continue where they left off, pretending as though the scout’s silly little request had never been uttered.

Now, a reasonable mech would respond in quite a number of assuredly reasonable ways. Firstly—they wouldn’t. In fact, one may argue that ignoring the message was the correct course of action. Bumblebee didn’t owe his ex anything and most certainly not a response to what essentially was a request to meet up that outright ignored the fact that their relationship ended.

Alternatively, a reasonable mech might make it a point to remind their ex of exactly that—Bumblebee and Breakdown weren’t together anymore, contrary to what the Stunticon might think, so no. Bee would not join him on a drive.

Unfortunately for Breakdown, Bumblebee was no longer a reasonable mech and so he opted to respond with a simple:

.://No thanks, my urge to drive has been satisfied already.

Wrist hurts? No problem! Draw exceedingly hard 3D mechanical designs when you can’t conceptualize in that dimension!

Lock tf in!!!!

New chapter of Accelerate is taking too long to rewrite/write, woah! A snippet be upon all of you.

Preview - A Wall, Collapsing

As Breakdown watched the way that Bee's chest heaved up and down rhythmically—an illusion of needing air, as though he actually were a human—through his mirrors, he found himself a tad jealous.

"I don't know how you do it, Bee," he mused, catching the former scouts attention. Bee blinked, tilting his head in confusion and as he did so, Breakdown watched his brown tresses move with the action, each strand of hair animated in a stunning attention to detail. He barely bothered with styling the hair for his holomatter avatar, not wanting to concern himself with accuracy and yet here Bee was, putting in the effort to animate the gentle breeze blowing back a few stray strands against his face.

"Do what?" he asked, genuinely lost. His false face twisted with the expression, lips pulling down as sharp eyebrows furrowed. Bee's projection sat on top of an old wooden table that humans used for refueling in public spaces, while Breakdown settled his own avatar on the bench below the tabletop.

Animating a lean backward, Breakdown gestured loosely at Bee's form, "Mimic the humans so well. You make it seem so easy."

"Well, it helps that I actually spent time amongst them without, you know, trying to kill them," Bumblebee teased, smug. "That way I knew that bright, racing red wasn't one of the available human skin tones unlike a certain someone."

"Hey, this is coming from the minibot who originally couldn't emote outside of a stiff smile when he first arrived on Earth," Breakdown started, leering at Bumblebee. He rolled his eyes in response, crossing his arms and scowling. "This new design suits you better. I wouldn't have been able to tell you apart from the other Earthlings if you hadn't revealed yourself to me first. I can see that I'm in the presence of a master of disguise."

Instead of growing flustered in response to Breakdown's attempt at flattery, a dark look crossed Bee's face. He manipulated his avatar to turn away from Breakdown at the same time that his tires turned from where he sat parked next to the Stunticon. "You're wrong. It's not perfect. Not yet."

Gave up rather quickly on rendering this out, but I wanted to do a cute "G1 Characters + Candy" series at some point 🙇‍♀️ Started off with Bumblebee + Bit O Honey

"I just... I need some help integrating this new mod," he looked down, a cloying smell filtering into the room with every hack he muffled into his fist. At this point, Sari was well acquainted with the smell of oil. This wasn't that. "Please?"

She stiffened with alert, "I can't, Bumblebee, the key it's-"

Amongst the humming and crackle of excess electricity, the grinding overworked gears, and the intermittent wet coughing, it was a miracle that Sari could hear the quiet click that sounded just before the panels of Bumblebee's battle mask disengaged and peeled back to reveal his face.

He looked tired, was the first thing Sari thought at finally getting to see her friend's real face for the first time. Tired, sad, and worst of all, desperate.
