He doesn’t have enough yet, Prime. 

Okay so some people didn’t believe me when I said that there’s a scene in Armada where Optimus covered in white goo is facedown on the floor and Galvatron complains because he hasn’t been satisfied yet, and though I have proven that I’m right in two streams before, here is the scene for everyone else. Armada is hard to sit through for the most part in my opinion, but good god the finale is a firework of shit like this.

Megaton: Why yes...I do know him...he’s my...my wife.

Sumdac: *in disbelief* Your wife?

Megatron: Yeah, we’re married.

Sumdac: But...but he’s a guy.

Megatron: Um? Hello, we’re robots. We don’t have genders!

There’s more where that came from if you go to the dance with me

a word of advice: never read 33 issues of a comic in a single weekend

it will destroy your entire life

Now, you guys know all about Knock Out and Breakdown and how they’re all married in the comics, right? And how on Velocitron, speed is everything?

So that sucks for Breakdown from a societal point of view. But from a practical point of view, speed is important to the Velocitronians for other reasons.

And why was that a big deal again?

Right, that.

So if you aren’t super hella fast, you run a significant risk of burning to death in the intense heat of the Velocitronian sun. Now in the comic, the only two Velocitronian bots we ever see chilling outside their city period are Moonracer and Knock Out.

And by virtue of the things we see them talking about, and their high social standing, we can probably assume they’re two of the fastest bots on the planet.

Now… the holiday special issue. We only get a tiny bit of Knock Out and Breakdown, but what do we see them doing?

Awww, they went on a honeymoon out in the Acid Wastes! That’s adorable!

But also, consider. Leaving the city on Velocitron is dangerous. If you’re not naturally fast, you stand a very good chance of dying a fiery death. Moonracer is the first bot to race outside the city in seventy years, and keeping pace with Navitas for a day was an impressive enough feat to get her a position as an interplanetary diplomat.

Breakdown… is not a fast bot. He’s so very not-fast that some people treat him “like a cripple.” Has he ever driven outside? Has he ever even had his wheels on natural ground? From what we hear about Velocitron, it doesn’t seem that likely.

And Knock Out took him to the Acid Wastes. Undeveloped land, stretching for miles and miles, no buildings even in sight, no reason to rush back or worry, no natural hazards that come anywhere near the danger of suddenly burning to death because you couldn’t outrun the sun. Just wide open spaces, and all the time in the world to drive it. I’m pretty sure Knock Out just gave his husband the most romantic present he could ever have imagined.

BlitzBee Sparkling: Hornet

So my Transformers love has come back with a bit of a vengeance! And after reading both “Reise Ohne Ende” and “Auf Nimmerwiedersehen” (they are fantastic go read them) As well as seeing several other works of both art/fanfics I’ve been on a pretty hard Blitzbee kick! So I made a sparkling of the pairing because they are soft jelly beans. So meet Hornet, a teeny sparkling who will eventually grow into a colossal bot. Normally sparklings beep or peep, but not Hornet. Hornet even as a tiny new spark she had a loud honk that only grew louder as she got older. She could out honk a semi-truck by the time her alt mode came in. Because of her loud output capacity mixed with her tiny size, she was a terror. Her favorite game being sneaking up on others and letting off the loudest boom she could muster. She’d giggle like a lunatic seeing them jump. Hornet also has some scary teeth hidden under her adorable faceplates, she’s chewed through many of steel support beams and unsuspecting pedes. But despite being such a tiny terror she has a very big spark. Despite her love of loud pranks, she has a lot of empathy towards the suffering of others. Even seeing organics upset/in pain gets her worked up. Her desire to help them follows her into adulthood as she pesters old man ratchet to take her under his wing as a medic. But her big clumsy claws might make being a medic difficult for her.

Megatron: Okay, I admit, some mistakes were made.

Optimus: Murders. Some murders were made.
