A Stardew Valley AU featuring Sunstreaker and Sideswipe as the farmers!
Expectation: Lie low in Stardrop Valley, run the mines, attempt to fix a farm, ignore everyone until they were kicked out of another home.
Reality: A bunch of younglings adopt them, rivalries galore (almost as much as the glitter), friendships are attempted, and an iridium filled valley acts like glowing cows and visiting space jellies are normal.
Somewhere between saving idiots, learning how to grow pulsefruit, and watching the Moonlight Jellies drift in, Sunstreaker and Sideswipe accidentally grow roots.
All art was all made by the marvelous and talented @windydrawallday! Please go to their blog and give them all the love! I really treasure my friendship with Windy and am so everlastingly grateful that I had them as my partner for this year's @tf-bigbang!
What do you do when rifts open up to another dimension?
A) Tell a responsible authority figure (wrong answer)
B) Throw gifts (no zombies or scraplets please) across said tears in reality
C) Use it to change history and take over Cybertron (wait…what?)
D) Become besties and save the world (or at least have fun trying)

“MultiversePenPals.com” was written in collaboration with @spashahoney and you can find her fantastic work here! She also created this ADORABLE gif!!!
I had the time of my life working with Spash and her piece! We had so much fun bouncing around each other about our pieces and transformers and I can’t wait to work with her more!!
I’m so proud of the work we put into this collab and I hope you love it even half as much as I do!
Missed the preview from last week? Check it out below! Created by the ever talented @spashahoney!

With the threat of the Quintessons on the horizon, Optimus must face Megatron for the first time since their fight. It was time to do what had to be done…
I joined the 2024 Transformers Reverse Big Bang! @tf-bigbang
I wrote a crossover fic featuring Transformers: Prime and More Than Meets the Eye! Inspired by the AMAZING, PERFECT, PHENOMENAL artwork done by @spashahoney!!! They also made this super cool preview that I’m going to keep for the rest of my life <3
Check out “MultiversePenPals.com” on ao3 during the bang posting period between July, 17th-July, 21st!
so... is the extended version of MultiversePenPals.com still coming or is it canceled?
Thanks for asking! It, like all my fics, are on hold until some life goals are in order. The only writing I’ve been doing is for this years TF big bang, and even then it’s been a bit of a struggle to juggle!
I do very much want to do the extended edition! I just need to take one step at a time :) I will add a little chapter at the end of the OG story to let anyone who subscribed know when the extended edition is out. Just…don’t expect it this year.
With the @tf-bigbang discord server closing today, I thought I'd share just a few of my favorite memories during my first community fandom event :)
Not to be dramatic, but this event changed the trajectory of my part in the transformers community for the better. It felt like I was at a 4 month long summer camp! I had so much fun talking to everyone and making so many precious, precious friends that I truly hope to stay in touch with.
So buckle in and grab some boba or your preferred drink of choice, because this is going to be long and sentimental.
A Welcoming Start
I joined at the beginning of April, due to someone reposting the Big Bang's twitter post about how writers were still welcome to join. I thought, "Only 5k word requirement over the course of a few months? Yeah sure. I can do that." Little did I know I'd actually committed to writing a fic almost 5 times that length
The vibes in the discord server started out with a bang (heh). Everyone was immediately kind and welcoming to one another. It was an immediate safe space to be excited, let loose and show our freak XD I loved how ferally affectionate we were with bringing new friends into the fold.
A sketch by @nepetacataria-art perfectly shows this I think XD
The Support and Love Shared
The sheer amount of love, comradery, and support shared with one another was astounding. Almost 200 writers and artists shared tips and tricks and offered advice and encouragement to each other! It was unreal and I learned so much. It truly encouraged me to improve in my craft and even inspired me to want to learn how to draw again!
Oh, and the RECS everyone shared!!! Everyone shared so many fics and art pieces that I am now obsessed with! I have been blessed with a LOT of quality, amazing content that I never would have seen otherwise! My tbr list grew from large to neverending haha <3
Teasing the Artists Before Match Ups
I'm ngl, I had WAY too much fun once the sketches were released to the writers and the secret-authors-corner channel was made. We all OBSESSED over all of the art and fangirled over each one! But we also talked, and talked, and talked. And dropping out of context messages into the public channels for the artists to see was too much fun!
Talking Transformers
IT WAS THE BEST THING EVEERRRRRR!!!!! WOWOWOWOWOW! I loved raving about characters and lore, both canon and fanon! Even when I wasn't a part of the conversation, just lurking and reading what people talked about whether it was AUs, comics, shows, character breakdowns, brainstorming ideas...it was all so cool and so fun. Everyone is so creative and thinking about the sheer amount of fun we all had makes me tear up.
Like, SO MANY plot bunnies were made with everyone! Myself included! Sometimes people would just say a random ass thing and then five others would hop on, riffing against each other and developing that little idea into something concrete and so so JUICY.
Two out of many MANY conversations that I personally loved were the video games x transformers ideas and talking tentacles and transformers in the nsfw channel XD
Writers Panicking, As We Do
It was all in fun, but it was very entertaining and validating to be in a space where we can all stress about our writing, our fics, and approaching deadlines.
The mods clearly enjoyed adding endless fuel to the fire and (lovingly) watched us all scream and run around in a fiery chaotic panic over every little thing.
Streaming
I didn't get to join many, but it was always so cool watching artists draw! I also had a lot of fun streaming Hades 2 with a few friends with it was first released :)
Team 0 - A King Julien Starscream Fic
It all started when Writer's Choice Period began...and the example inspired many of us writers to obsess over this...I'll let the screenshots tell you XD
A King Julien Starscream fic just WORKS and you can't tell me otherwise! @mendely's sketch REALLY sold it to me as a thing that's GOTTA happen.
Madagascar AU FTW
AND THEN THE MODS MADE IT A THING THING
@useless19's king julienscream puppet owns my soul and their little vid is possibly the finest piece of silent cinema I've ever watched in my entire life. I was ENRAPTURED.
@sxpaiscia's art KILLS ME. PUTS MY HEART IN A CHOKEHOLD. Julienscream lives in my head rent free and 50% of it is imagined with their art in mind.
The sad end to the story is...the Team 0's fic wasn't completed within the time requirements to be posted with the rest of the Mini Bang's fics :( Do we still plan on continuing and finishing it? HELL YEAH WE ARE!
To Be Continued...
Did you know that there is a limit to the amount of images you can share in one post? SMH.
