sudden crack headcanon because of the fruit poll (and because I was a papaya demon in my younger school years)
Y'know how Paya is the name of the warrior god that Yautja worship?
Birdbrain imagines a human mentioning papayas, and a Predator (or more than one) doing a double take at hearing a familiar name. Coming from an Ooman, no less. How did separate cultures have similar-sounding words?
[inb4 Nad gets sidetracked by the post about different cultures ending up with nearly identical words for the same thing]
Cue the Predators taste-testing the tropical fruit; is it worthy of invoking the Warrior God's name, or will some consider it overrated?
now, i want yall make gifts for Ash(like not a drawing, like an idea for a gift for him) so i would make a comic of him opening the gifts:D
and yeah, there is somethings he likes: insects (especially australian spider), anything in deep blue, anything related to his phone, plants, silver things
soooo yeess, if you made a gift please reblog this post:)
the undeadening of a TF:P OC (and an underused canon character)
so we know from Shrike’s backstory that she killed Polymeria on false orders
but Birdbrain wants it to be the case that Polymeria gets reincarnated as a Predacon named Luminyr at the end of an AmCyb’d version of Predacons Rising
Or wait - if Breakdown and Skyquake did not die in the Amalgam Cybertronia continuity, there’s no reason for Shockwave to use their genetic material in Predacon clones Darksteel and Skylynx.
Birdbrain: “is there anything left of Makeshift to salvage?”
[rambling explorations under cut]
TFWiki will have other points of reference for how Makeshift would’ve looked. It seems such a waste that a unique Cybertronian like him gets killed off in the first episode he appeared in.
Birdbrain: “hence, why not make him a Predacon clone”
Potentially unstable clone. That’s where a standard Cybertronian flyer like Polymeria comes in. Whether her corpse was reported and taken in by a Decepticon scout, or recovered and buried properly with a good memorial, Starscream could hesitate at the thought of resurrecting an Autobot, even as a Predacon clone. Or, I dunno.
Shockwave: “In death, there is no Autobot or Decepticon. Given your familiarity with the workings of Dark Energon, Starscream, you should already know that.”
Makeshift’s alternate (Predacon) name could be Skysickle. In terms of dragon sibling dynamics, he can be the grumpy one and Luminyr cheerful.
As of now, further details are unclear. Birdbrain just wants Polymeria as a Predacon, and with at least two other characters “undeadened”, we call a different candidate into play.
Within AmCyb continuity - if Luminyr’s spark remembers her past life as Polymeria, and she meets Shrike... oof, it’s gonna be awkward
She would get along pretty well with Manticore, though. And when she learns about the long, drawn-out war between ’Bots and ’Cons that carried over to planet Earth? She’d probably be happy she missed most of it. Despite her use as a soldier, she did not relish the killing and violence that took place.
My original characters from a sci-fi-themed show can still attempt a fantasy twist, or so I hope. Void Soldier armor design isn't final, so a simplified Night Sentinel armor will do...?
Birdbrain: "smneak preview of the next AmCyb chapter..."
why did I have to write a character perpetually coated in darkness lol
Anyway, it's interesting to see how my haphazardly-gathered art supplies actually perform on paper. Charcoal is not exactly the darkest medium, and some color pencils lay down darker than others depending on brand.
