I live for Miko and Five's friendship, they're so cute together! Please do yourself a favor and watch Glitch Techs, it's got great animation and action scenes, cool game references, it's colorful and funny and the characters are great! Season two just came out!

Aaaand if you like Glitch Techs maybe check out Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, it's also colorful, funny with cool characters, action and great animation! It's got two seasons (it really should be more, give us the rest of it @nickelodeon !! Canceling the show is a mistake! ) and deserve more recognition and love!

If only there was a way to easily watch the Rise of the TMNT episodes, it would get very popular before the movie comes out 👀 mmmmh isn't that right @netflix??

The Vanished Kingdom

Tales of the land across the sea have spread across the world. Rumors of the powerful beings that guard the kingdom there. But the rumors have always been true. 

The seven guardians of Valon Taivas have been fighting for their home for centuries. Forced to bow down to the foolish queen on the throne, over the past few decades, their services have been exchanged for peace.

Despite the immense power in each of them, their time away from their home has distorted their reputations among their peers. 

But power always comes with a price. And the burden the guardians carry has only grown heavier. 

When tragedy strikes in the kingdom, the guardians are there. Old enemies welcomed back into their home, murder rampant in the land of peace. 

Hated by the council, forced to relive their darkest memories, the Seven find themselves changing. As they work under persecution, they are forced to confront who exactly they are and who they are meant to be.

The Seven are different now. Their power is more destructive, more horrible. 

The Passion is eaten up by her guilt and power. 

The Charmer cannot find the balance between fate and life itself. 

The Lodestar is burning with unpredictable, unexpected fury. 

The Silencer has been shaped into a weapon that no one can comprehend. 

The Jester has lost his morals and will kill when he pleases. 

The Assassin is broken, his power is beyond his reach. 

The Mystic will do anything to keep them safe. 

They survive. They kill. 

And they will save their home and break free. 

Freedom is all they ever wanted. 

Do or die.

Watched season 2 of Kipo and the Age of the Wonderbeasts!! 🤩🤩🤩

Just to give you an idea...

The apparent rocky start that went into a fully engaging new story?

The constant shift of situation as there wasn't a clear way of how it was going to develop?

The flashbacks, the mysteries, getting slowly uncovered as they all, ALL, had a specific meaning to be there?

The villains with backstories and complexity?

A deep connection with the first season that makes everything fluid and balanced?

The time given for each characters to have a little development, while still making the plot go forward no problem?

The amazing soundtracks?

The beautiful animation?

The bonding between the characters??

The super cute SHIP?? You know the one??

Just... just everything, omg 👏👏👏

I was a little afraid they weren't going to deliver something as amazing as the first season, but BOI am I glad I was proven wrong 😍 Seriously, go watch it if you still haven't, won't regret a single thing 👌👌

As Athena: Winston? I have received word that Akande Ogundimu, or Agent Doomfist, has been sighted in Southern India. Though it is unclear what his objective is, his sighting is alarming. Shall we send a team to scope out the area? I worry his presence will only result in destruction of the local area.

Mercy: “I would like to go as well. If that is alright. I have a bad feeling about all of this.”

Sunstreaker felt like he was caught in a whirlwind. Everything he’d judged his life by so far was up in the air, and the only solid anchor was a pair of bright blue eyes.

Sideswipe.

It was strange, how upside-down everything had turned.

“So,” the owner of said blue eyes murmured. “Have you given any more thought to my suggestion?”

Sunstreaker turned his head to meet his eyes. “About the trip?”

“Of course the trip.” Sideswipe grinned. “Think about it. You, me, in the cabin up near the resort, where we can go skiing or snowboarding or soak in the hot tub or sit in front of the fireplace or whatever you want.”

“It’s tempting,” Sunstreaker admitted. He tilted his head forward enough to lean his forehead against Sideswipe’s.

“But?”

Sideswipe was very perceptive, Sunstreaker had realized. He read Sunstreaker’s mood as if he was privy to his every thought, which was comforting and disconcerting all at once.

“But I’m not sure I’m ready for what you want out of it,” he admitted. “And I worry that you have expectations I can’t meet.”

They were dating, at this point. Sunstreaker was happy with that, happier than he’d ever been in fact, but what Sideswipe was suggesting… “It’s only been a couple of months, Sides. I’m…”

“You’re not comfortable getting that close yet,” Sideswipe said. His blue eyes were warm. “I know. Let me rephrase. Imagine you, me in the cabin up near the resort, where we can go skiing or snowboarding or go to dinner in the resort restaurant or watch a movie together at night under a thick quilt or whatever you want. And I’ll make you hot cocoa and you’ll help me toast the marshmallows, and we can play cards and board games and eat breakfast together every morning.”

Now that sounded a lot more tempting.

“If you want, we don’t have to be alone up there, either,” Sideswipe continued. “There’s plenty of room. We can bring some friends.”

Sunstreaker frowned. He didn’t really have many friends worth mentioning. “Raj?”

“If you want. And I can bring Cliff. Maybe Sky and TC. I know you haven’t met them yet, but they’re decent. Or Jazz, Jack, maybe Pax.”

“You have so many friends,” Sunstreaker murmured. He squeezed Sideswipe’s hand. “How do you have so many friends?”

Not that it was that surprising. Sideswipe was one of those magnetic personalities that Sunstreaker definitely wasn’t, pulling others to him by sheer charisma and general likeability.

“How do you have so few?” Sideswipe countered, with a smile to take the edge of his words. “You’re too great to only have one friend, who is more of a business associate at that.”

Sunstreaker managed a shrug. “I’m kind of focused on my art. And not too good with people.”

“Not the impression I got,” Sideswipe said. He raised his chin and gave Sunstreaker a kiss on the cheek. “You can get absorbed, sure, but you’re not the worst one I’ve encountered. When Jack gets stuck on a project we have to remind him to eat and sleep, or he forgets for days.”

Sunstreaker smiled slightly. “That is worse than me, yeah.” He snuggled closer to Sideswipe. Never mind that they were in a public area. “How big is this cabin, anyway?”

“Big enough. Four bedrooms. And room for air mattresses and stuff in the living room.” Sideswipe nuzzled his hair. “Why, did you have someone else in mind?”

“My neighbors. Magnus and Roddy. I’m not that close to them, but they’re always friendly and inviting me to do stuff. Roddy especially. Magnus is a bit more reserved.”

Sideswipe smiles. “Does that mean what I think it means? Does that mean we’ll go?”

“Yeah.” Sunstreaker closed his eyes and tucked his head in under Sideswipe’s chin. “Yeah, we’ll go. And we’ll invite all those people.”

“Great! I’ll set it up.” Sideswipe put his arm across Sunstreaker’s waist and pulled him close. “Thank you.”

“Well, what can I say? You make a convincing case.”

Sideswipe chuckled. “Does that mean I can convince you to stay here in the park with me a few more minutes? Or hours?”

“Hours?” Sunstreaker laughed. “I’d love to. I really would. But I can’t. I have a deadline.”

“Oh yeah. The sea-god.” Sideswipe’s laugh tickled Sunstreaker’s neck. “Did they decide on the dolphins at last?”

Sunstreaker snorted. “They can’t agree on the color of tap water. No. At this point they’ve nixed every sea creature I’ve come up with. So now I’m taking creative liberties and putting in what I see fit. My contract covers minor artistic decisions without input from the client, so I’m just taking care to keep everything small and discreet.”

“That’s my Sunstreaker.” Sideswipe chuckled and kissed his hair. “So, no hours. But a few more minutes?”

Sunstreaker nodded. “Yeah. A few more minutes.”
