Whatever. Fly, my rarepair-ab 🪲
I think Jetfire might end up liking learning and some sciences, like previous iterations, but he was never really given the tools to apply himself. Kind of like how Bulkhead is often assumed to be unintelligent for his size & clumsiness, but surprises people when he gets to talking about engineering. (I wonder if it was foreshadowed by how often we see him making sculptures, not just paintings, in the early episodes) The jettwins r very much neurodivergent guys who were kinda screwed over by a system that doesn’t really know what to do with them TO ME
And also. Gorm. :] I think Jetstorm was created for Beast Machines, which doesn’t have Grimlock? <- Don’t quote me on that tho. But under different circumstances, he was pursued by Blackarachnia. I thought it would be fun to pair him with another character who was involved with her, even if it’s not the same iteration at all haha. Maybe blue-violet are just Grimlock’s favorite colors or something? xd But Jetstorm here, I don’t think he has it in him to be manipulative like BA, nor does he have much reason to be? Maybe if he does have to hide his emotions more as the “cool-headed” one, another bot that has siblings and feels ostracized/hostile to outsiders would be a good friend for him to have, I’m curious to see how that relationship could develop :D
