15, please! :D

15) why did you start writing?

That’s a funny story. Actually, I started writing to express my opinion that I couldn’t express in a discussion. 

I was seventeen, and I was in the Naruto fandom (back when the second part of the manga / Shippuuden didn’t even exist), and I really, really loved Itachi. I saw him as a very complex character with interesting motivations, and I also saw evidence in canon that he loved Sasuke. Unfortunately, in the fandom Itachi was usually portrayed as a cardboard cutout villain rapist. 

So I started writing to show people the Itachi I fell in love with. And, magically enough, it worked. I managed to do with my stories what I could never do in discussions: I influenced the fandom’s general opinion. Of course, there were other authors, and there were other people who agreed with me, but back then we met in the comments to the stories I wrote. Every comment that said “you changed the way I see Itachi, he’s a great character” filled my heart with joy. 

Ever since then this has been one of the main reasons why I’m writing. I want to share how I see a character, an idea, a concept, I want to share the emotions I feel about a certain subject. I think I’m much better at discussions through stories rather than direct conversations.

Do you mind me asking if you have a schedule for your fics? :) They are incredible!

Thank you! <3 and haha no, but I wrote four in a row in a massive fit of procrastination while on deadline, and I didn’t allow myself to post them until the manuscript was done, which is why I am now hurling them out like a cleanup pitcher in the ninth. If I haven’t totally drowned everyone I will post #4 tomorrow maybe. :P

hehehe, I will ask THE QUESTION: №8

8. If you were a transformer, what would your alt mode be? Why?

Oh, this is a tough one, but maybe a space ship? I’ve always got my head in the clouds.

  Me: *resists the urge to draw robots in scarves...

Ooooh! I like to think that Tailgate sneaks into Meg’s room to wear his scarf (which basically covers his whole body because its that big) and drink Meg’s tea from his giant mug :D

It’s a fact tea taste better in a giant mug, pity Megatron probably drinks something heinous like Chamomile or Lavender tea.

oh no, I can`t stop thinking that it happened after Megatron's death T_T

I know that we, as a fandom, joke about Optimus Prime dying and coming back but lets be real here, Megatron doesn’t die. He just takes long naps enforced by serious injury. And sometimes death.

It’s fine, all you gotta do is dump his corpse in space/the ocean and he’ll be back (possibly as Galvatron/with a sick new paintjob/literally God) in like, a week.

And I didn’t even feel motivated to try and look up his deaths in comics. Has he been dying in IDW? I feel like he’s died or at least been assumed dead at least once. Maybe twice.

Anyways, the point is, don’t worry.

I ask you THE EIGHT! The eight question!!!!!!!!! "8. If you were a transformer, what would your alt mode be? Why?"

A heavy armoured transport! Well-protected, sturdy and ready to carry friends safely. 

Also if anyone dared to threated me, I could just run them over without even noticing the offender. uwu

Your AUs are perfect T_T And you made me want to rewatch The Swan Princess XD (Also are parents in betrothal au are OCs or known characters?)

Thank you! ;u;

As for the parents I’m probably going to use known characters, I was thinking Megatronus and either Sentinel or Zeta

Is there known Decepticons artists/musicians/writers/filmmakers etc? Culture making people of any kind. Well, except Megatron and Sky-Byte :P

Oh yes, a few! There are some who consider what they do “art” - Buzzsaw, most famously, considers waging warfare a form of art, but the actual culture-makers have included:

Slog here is a sculptor. He was originally employed by the Decepticons to make works of art glorifying their rise, but now that he’s on the battlefield, he makes abstract art sculptures out of dead Autobot bodies. This has inspired a legitimate art form called “Slogism” dedicated to showing the horrors of war.

Loudpedal uses sonic weaponry in battle, but he secretly maintains an alter ego as the underground musician “C-Shadow,” one of the galaxy’s foremost musicians, using a holomatter avatar to make public appearances while keeping his real identity a secret!

In the IDW comics, Thundercracker’s exposure to human television and film has led him to take up screenwriting!

Take a look in our artists and poets categories to find some more obscure examples!
