I enjoy a few different medias but this is a Transformers blog, so aside from a few mentions this will be purely Transformers + some random personal things lol
Hi! I don’t know how these work, but you can call me Somebody or just Ki if you want. This blog is for mainly Transformers stuff, although I may get into some other topics from time to time. Here’s a mini list of Transformers media I’ve seen or am currently watching, plus another list of other media I’m interested in, and would love to talk about (although please refrain from giving too many spoilers to any shows I have not finished yet, excluding Marvel stuff) after that is a link to my currently unfinished Rescue Bots fic, and I’ll add any other fics I may make in the future.
Transformers:
Watched:
Transformers: Prime

Vampire SMP (Scott’s POV; still watching and because of this haven’t really interacted with the fandom all that much)
The Amazing Digital Circus
The Marvel movies (Kinda. I’ve yet to see a quite a few shows and movies released after Endgame)
Not sure if Tumblr is the place to ask/post this, but I don’t really know where else to ask, so…😓
I’m currently making a “I’m Slowly Forgetting Your Face” animation meme(? Idrk what to call it and it’s like 3am sorry) and I don’t know whether this is a good beginning or if I should change it. Constructive criticism with both the drawing and the intro/beginning would be greatly appreciated. I’m stressing over this😅
Also help with the blur would help as blurring on CapCut is difficult and sucks because it doesn’t like to work how I’d like it to, lol
Characters that don’t laugh often but when they do it’s at something really dumb or corny….
Optimus and dad jokes...
Ultra Magnus and reeeally bad puns....
Ratchet at IRL slapstick humor...
Smokescreen trips over his own pede and causes a domino effect of bots tripping over each other. Arcee or Wheeljack or what have you opens their intake to complain about Smokescreen being clumsy, only to hear boisterous laughter.
All of their heads turn like a cartoon to see Ratchet— stern, bossy, ENERGON DEPRIVED, stressed 24/7 Ratchet— doubled over laughing. I’m talking tears in the corners of his optics, stomach hurting, having to grab onto his desk so he doesn’t fall over laughing.
It’s like when you’re really tired so everything becomes astronomically more funny. Ratchet hardly sleeps. This should be fragging hysterical to him. He tries to brush it off with a cough and a grumble when he notices everyone looking at him, but Team Prime takes this as a challenge. They start a prank war on each other and each bot gets points for getting Ratchet to laugh.
Bonus points if Ultra Magnus somehow gets roped into it in season three. The stakes are highest in that season, Ratchet is working overtime, and there’s a lot less levity/time for rest.
The prank war is at a standstill not only because of the more pressing matters, but because nobody can seem to get Ratchet to laugh at anything. Poor old man doesn’t find anything funny because he’s stretching himself incredibly thin for “the sake of the team” :(
Ultra Magnus finds his footing in the team eventually. He finds the scoreboard for the prank war (Optimus is winning, but Wheeljack and Smokescreen are tied for runner up somehow. They do a bunch of dumb slapstick stuff, probably.)
In his attempt to “team bond”, Ultra Magnus pulls a very harmless prank that is rather poorly executed. Think water (solvent) bucket positioned over a door except the door is slightly too open so someone could just walk through without triggering it. He set it up properly the first time, but made it easier to walk through just in case someone had to run through the door to get to a fight or something. Safety first and all that.
Ultra Magnus forgets about it and eventually pushes the door further open himself, drenching himself in solvent and landing him a bucket on his helm.
Ratchet was aware of the prank war, just not that the challenge was to make him laugh. He watched Magnus set the trap up and was too engrossed in his work to really be worried about it.
That said, when Ultra Magnus falls into his own trap, it startles a bark of laughter out of the Medic. He quickly clears his intake and schools his expression, but obviously that did not go unnoticed.
It felt nice, to see that stress fade from Ratchet’s faceplates. Even if just for a split second. I mean, Ultra Magnus didn’t get to see a lot of Ratchet’s silly side because of how the third season is. LET HIM BE SILLYYYYYY
The rest of the team ropes him into their red-string-and-cork-board-theory discussions on the best way to make Ratchet laugh. Yes, Optimus is in on it. He thinks it’s hilarious but the only sign of that is his small, gentle smile. However, there’s a mischievous sparkle in his optics that hints at a playfulness OP doesn’t often allow himself to display.
Optimus also has a bunch of jokes in his metaphorical pocket that reaaaally get Ratchet. They’ve known each other for millions and millions of years, there’s no way they don’t have inside jokes.
Optimus keeps slipping them into casual conversation, as well. He’ll be talking to Bumblebee or something like:
“Cybertron will be whole again, my friend. Renewal is like a Vosian spire, as they say.”
It’s like. An immature phallic joke or something. Ratchet has to pull this face to keep himself from laughing:
I feel like I should’ve watched Cyberverse before Transformers Animated and RiD15. Purely because it made me like Slipstream and Windblade way more, and I probably would have at least tried appreciating and understanding their characters more compared to how I originally did. I don’t know why, but while originally watching TFA and RiD15, I didn’t really care much for either of them, but I’m now in the middle of watching Cyberverse, and I’ve ended up appreciating them much more.
I KNOW I would have enjoyed at least Slipstream’s character more in TFA if I had watched Cyberverse first. Not sure about Windblade though, so I’ll have to rewatch RiD15.
GENUINELY JUST THOUGHT ABOUT IT AND REALIZED THAT I THINK HOT ROD IS ONE OF MY FAVOURITES FROM THIS SHOW. THEN HE JUST STRAIGHT UP DIED. WHAT THE HELL.
Okay but I started Transformers Cyberverse. Tell me why I love Windblade in this so far, but very much dislike her in RiD15. Maybe it’s just because she sorta appeared out of nowhere and I didn’t really get a chance to appreciate her character in it, but i feel like RiD15 Windblade and Cyberverse Windblade give off very different vibes somehow?? Do I need to rewatch RiD15 after I finish Cyberverse
Trying to come up with fanfic ideas (that I can actually write) because I wanna write but I don’t want to work on my current one or the other fic that I started but probably won’t post.
