Okay so we have Stealth Bomber Megatron’s kid working at a bank 

and Rung, Skids sons who one works as a drive and the other as a grave digger or something like that. 

How many more lost light kids are out there!! 

[iviin-855]

What if the afterspark exists and some lost lighter dies but the medics manage to bring them back to life in time and they say:

does anyone remember getting therapy on this ship? *some hands raise* cool. Does anyone remember having a psychiatrist on board? *sounds of existential crysis and minimus checking the crew list* well yeah we had a psychiatrist, a tiny orange bot named rung, but he was actually primus who was hit by a memory deletion ray so he and everyone else forgot that. Just met him. He says hi.

Other lost lighters: that sounds wrong but we have some holes in our memory, now that you point it out, and god unknowingly being our psychiatrist is incredibly on brand with this fragging ship so hi rang, i guess.

[shikai-the-storyteller]

I swear if Cyclonus says "I'm sorry I couldn't keep my promise, little one" at any point in the upcoming comics I will face Primus and walk backwards into hell

[bluaple]

First time when getaway trolled tailgate I was like 'meh, that was totally wrong thing to do but his thoughts about megatron has a point'

And I kept this thought even when he got rodimus's crew stranded on the necroworld with the djd

But after the latest 2 issues I'm like 'Fuck why won't he get killed already by literally everyone around him'

I respect the people who like him and and honestly I like him too but personally he really deserves to die😂😂😂

LOST LIGHT 22 READ (THAT I TOTALLY DIDN’T FORGET TO POST)

OHHHH MAN I DIDN"T REALIZE THIS WAS THE COMIC WITH THE CHROMEDOME COVER W/ RUNG IN ALT MODE IM IMMEDIATELY SO FRICKIN WORRIED

Me: *sees that this is the cover with Chromedome and Rung in alt-mode form* *WORRIED WHEEZE*

*Stares at Chromedome with heart eyes while feeling waves of anxiety* I love you my sweet boy pleASE DONT DIE I WOULDN"T BE ABLE TO TAKE IT

MAN IM SO ANXIOUS ABOUT THE LOST LIGHT CHAPTER

I JUST SCREAMED “UNICRON IS HERE OH NO” OUT LOUD

*sees Megatron still has an Autobot badge* *BREATHES A SIGH OF RELIEF EVEN IF I KNOW THATS NOT NECESSARILY INDICATIVE OF ANYTHING*

GIANT TITAN???? I LITERALLY SAID “OH SNAP” OUT LOUD

OH MY GOSH HE NAMED HIS SHIP “THE LAST LIGHT” I JUST NOTICED THAT

“The Return of the King” I AM SHRIEKING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

“Since when did Cybertron have an alt mode” THAT"S A DANG GOOD QUESTION I THOUGHT THAT WAS A METRO TITAN

Chromedome’s casually like “Oh that’s Cybertron” UH BUDDY THAT”S KIND OF A BIG FRICKIN DEAL

“Megatron! What in the actual hell is going on?” THAT"S AN EVEN BETTER QUESTION RODIMUS

gosh roddy looks so good in his classic red and orange and yellow look I’m weeping

MEGATRON….

MEGATRON….

“I’m waving” RODIMUS YOU ARE PRECIOUS

It only took five pages but Megatron ALREADY looks so Done with Rodimus lmaoooo welcome back Megs

Grimlock: Megatron? Rodimus: I never thought I’d say this but…he’s not that bad when you get to know him Me: *OLD MAN CLUTCHING CHEST REACTION MEME*

Pharma: *points at Ratchet* Me, immediately: nO NO NONONO!!!!

Half of me: IM SO FRICKIN WORRIED ABOUT RATCHET I MEAN I KNOW HE”LL BE FINE BUT IM STILL WORRIED Other half of me: haha Pharma wants to brag in front of his ex

WH-

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

HECK

I HATE TRANSFORMERS I HATE THIS SERIES

I had to google who Nightstalker was GDI HE WAS RAVAGE’S PARTNER, HOW MANY TIMES DO YOU GOTTA DO ME DIRTY IDW

STOP KILLING MEGATRON’S CATS, LET HIM LIVE YOU MONSTERS

Rodimus: What are you going to do? Megatron: From your perspective I’m going to try and kill you MEGATRON PLEASE

DRIFT OH NO

I ACTUALLY GASPED OUT LOUD OH MY GOSH!!!!

I KNEW SOMETHING LIKE THAT WOULD HAPPEN BUT DANGIT JRO THAT WAS COLD

I KNOW HE”LL BE OK BUT DANG

My first thought, immediately after panicking: Oh Saling’s gonna lose their mind at these panels

“I am not Pharma, but I do think he’s trying to assert himself” OH SHOOT SO THAT"S NOT PHARMA

lmao “I’m not Pharma but he keeps screaming at me to brag that he shot your current boyfriend”

“You built a spacebridge into my mind” uH

“I met someone as they crossed the threshold. When they ran I reached out to retrieve them-” UH

IM LOSING MY DANG MIND “You’re talking to Pharma and I’ve got to say Ratchet you’re looking very-” GDI PHARMA YOU”RE KILLING ME HERE what a gay disaster

“I was Adaptus” UHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Wait wtf Whirl’s on the Last Light AND with Rodimus? OH WAIT SHOOT IS THAT HIS KID ON THE LAST LIGHT!????? WAIT A MINUTE

AW….THE MEGATRON ULTRA MAGNUS MOMENT….OOF THAT HURTS MY HEART

OH WAIT SHOOT DRIFT ACTUALLY IS REALLY HURT HECK

WHAT"S A ZERO POINT IS HE GONNA BE OK???

“Let me look at him” Megatron I don’t think you have a medical degree for that

OH MY GOSH HIS FUSION CANON IS ACTUALLY A TOOL KIT….IM WEEPING…I LOVE THAT.

MEGATRON AND DRIFT ARE FINALLY (sorta) SPEAKING NOW IM REALLY WEEPING

Aw I know JRO’s super pressed for time with everything but I’m glad he was able to put that interaction in there

HA

There’s so many good things about this panel: Cyconus side-eyeing Megatron, Swerve ragging on Megatron’s interior design choice (even though Swerve’s favorite color is purple), Megatron defending his choice to Swerve….good content here folks

“Four weeks…Minimus I’ve not seen you in centuries” *WAILS*

I LOVE THEM SO FRICKIN MUCH

Local goth sulks in the corner and misses his boyfriend

MORTILUS WAS THE NECROBOT….I REALLY AM GOING TO WEEP

IM SCREAMING AT THE TOP OF MY LUNGS

RUNG IS PRIMUS

IM LOSING MY DANG MIND

IM LAUGHING BECAUSE JRO, AS THE WRITER, IS ESSENTIALLY THE GOD OF THE STORY SO IT MAKES SENSE THAT HIS INSERT WOULD BE IMPORTANT BUT IM STILL LOSING IT OH MY GOSH

TRANSFORMERS IS THE BEST SERIES IN THE UNIVERSE

FRICKIN JRO “This is my oc, he’s god”

I CAN”T WAIT TIL THE NEXT ISSUE THIS IS GONNA BE THE LONGEST TWO AND A HALF WEEKS OF MY LIFE

[rungalwaysheretolisten]

Okay Rung, so when you get damaged, your frame can heal itself like really good like with out a doctor, if someone was to take your optic or some type of part from your fame out of you, would it grow back, like human fungus?

Rung is going to give a very confused look and say "I lost my arm one and it grew back so maybe? I rather not test that theory though, last thing I want is Ratchet yell at me for pull out my own optic and being haft blind or something like that."

[shikai-the-storyteller]

*voice cracking* LOST LIGHT 24 READ

James....Jimmothy....Jimmothy Roberts....

Listen. I know we’ve had our differences but please. Please I am Begging you on hands and knees. Please don’t kill Rung. I know I predicted that he was gonna die like 10 arcs ago and have been steeling myself for this moment but pLEASE

PLEASE JRO MY BIRTHDAY IS ON SATURDAY CAN YOU NOT KILL MY BOY

OK ok alright here we go. As usual, I already read the first five pages but I’m still gonna react

I remember the instant fear I felt when I first saw the cover image months ago I was like "DONT KILL MINIMUS / MAGNUS" (you fool. He's not gonna die HE'LL BE FINE)

"He wipes their memories, makes a getaway using Luna 1" more like PULLS a Getaway, am I right? *slaps knee*

"I'm not the least bit on edge" Rodimus says, biting his finger. Tailgate's the only one who points out the massive flaw in the plan lmao I love you Tailgate but poor guy "You have to promise not to shout at me"

I screamed about this on twitter but the Rung / Rewind / Chromedome interaction INSTANTLY got me to tear up when I read the preview

Like. I'll spare everyone but I COULD WRITE A 20 PAGE THESIS ON THIS SINGLE PAGE ALONE.

Rung gently takes their hands and puts them together and says lucky :') it sounds so much like a blessing. And then he stops and takes the time to give them one last piece of advice before shutting himself away in his room and ohhhhh man, I'm so not prepared for this, I know what's gonna happen but I'm not ready for this

Man kudos to the artist for perfectly capturing so many emotions in this page, esp in that last panel with Rung, back against the door as he looks down, left to his own thoughts. He's always been the person who comforts, but who's there to comfort and reassure him?

That's just so frickin hysterical that Swerve's "Hit a bot on their neural cluster and they revert to their alt mode" thing wound up being such a major plot point I LOVE THAT

hhHHHRHHGHHHHH AND OF COURSE THE PERSON HE THINKS ABOUT NOW IS SKIDS

HHHHGHHHHHHH

That’s such a fond memory for him, even though he was literally getting chased down by a Sparkeater. I think that was one of the first times someone (minus Whirl maybe) intentionally gave him a nickname and didn't just say his name wrong because they seriously didn't know what it was

That scene with Skids saving Rung is still one of my favorites but ARGH, RUNG DELETING ALL HIS FILES, KNOWING WHAT'S GONNA HAPPEN, TAKING PRECAUTIONS BECAUSE HE KNOWS HE WON"T BE AROUND TO TAKE CARE OF THINGS LATER

Me, trying to distract myself from the inevitable heartbreak about to happen: Haha wow I really love the painting Rung has in his room

AHHHHH REWIND AND CHROMEDOME HUGGING EACH OTHER, THIS IS KILLING ME

REWIND LOOKS SO SAD, I"M SO SAD BUT IM SO HAPPY THEY”RE TOGETHER

man, I know JRO said Magnus is the best hugger on the ship but honestly I think Chromedome’s a close second

SHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHOOT

MAN I REALLY DON”T WANT TO SCROLL DOWN

JRO PLEASE

PLEASE I”LL DO ANYTHING

OH NO AND THAT SHOT OF RODIMUS OPENING THE DOOR IS THROUGH RUNG”S GLASSES JRO COME ON

I hate this comic so much I knew it was coming but I feel so numb

Megatron gosh darn it stop talking about Overloading Vector Sigma this is SErIOUS BUSINESS

raTCHET YOU”RE SUCH A TURD

"I've done good things" "You've done bad things too" "Oh yeah loads" I LOVE THE DECEPTIDORKS

I LOVE HOW EVERYONE"S DEBATING THIS LMAO and I do like Brainstorm's question

Aw Cyclonus flying next to his boyfriend / husband :')

AW THEY"RE CARRYING TAILGATE wait a minute WASN"T RIVETS FIELD WHERE TAILGATE WAS BORN

Talk about coming full circle, oof

I paused my reread so I could go snag my little Tailgate figurine off my shelf HE SHOULD SEE THIS TOO

Ohh they repaired the Greatsword? I was worried about that since I thought it broke in MTMTE 47

AND DRIFT'S WITH RATCHET HELL YEAH Drift's in defense mode, THAT LOOKS SO COOL but it's KILLING me how casually Ratchet is holding the Matrix, like RATCHET PLEASE HAVE A LITTLE BIT OF RESPECT, RUNG DIED TO MAKE THAT but he probably doesn't know that yet :(

Also: I don’t know if it’s a coloring error, but it’s interesting that Ratchet’s autobot badge is grey

T

THEY

IM LITERALLY INCAPABLE OF FORMING COHERENT WORDS RIGHT NOW THEY DID THE THING

THAT HAPPENED

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

RATCHET YOU BIG LOSER “IM NOT GONNA EXPLICITLY SAY IT BUT ME TOO” HECK

GOSH IM SO HAPPY 

SALING YOU DID IT BUDDY YOU CALLED THAT

AW Red Alert got one too! I hope he's able to open it, I know he still feels guilty about the whole "shooting someone" thing, even if Pharma was being a turd

AW Nautica and Brainstorm! Best buds forever! :'D That's so sweet (and that’s some good mlm wlw solidarity right there)

AW LUG GOT ONE TOO!!!

now did Chromedome and Rewind get one is the real question (probably not but I CAN DREAM....Rewind at least should get one, I know Chromedome’s still got some Baggage)
