Maybe RP as straightenxyourxbadge or straighten-your-badge? Because you’re right, that’s a really great url.

::It’s not that interesting a story, really. Least I don’t think so.::

::I left the Decepticons, friend. I don’t plan on killing people I don’t even know.::

    “Whoa,” Riptide barely voiced, nearly stepping closer to the portal when it’d opened. His hand dropped as soon as the mech stepped through, the hydrobot vaguely aware that the massive being could tear him limb from limb. “Oh Hell, how am I supposed to hide you?”

    He stepped forward and scanned over Breakdown, mouth slightly pursed in thought. “We have to go to my room and get you a sticker,” he said then turned sharply to lead the ex-Decepticon along. The realization of how terrible of an idea this was would hit him later, probably once he managed to get thoroughly wasted with his new ‘pal’. 

He cocked his helm to one side, raising an optic ridge. “Ultra Magnus is here? Gotta be a different one from mine, Ultra Magnus was back at base.” It was then that he registered the other name. “Frag! Megatron’s here?”

Breakdown quickly whirled around, panic evident on his face plates. After the last few years, Megatron still scared the navy blue mech. Unfortunately, the space bridge had already closed behind him, as he’d set it to do.

This is as complete of a list as I can make of all currently active tumblr blogs that are ask, rp, or both for the Transformers fandom. If I missed you or someone you RP with, it was NOT on purpose. I also have a list for inactive, possible inactive, and hiatus - but these will not be posted due to the sheer size of the list (720+). Sorted by character name. OCs are included in this list.

Literally the only reason this exists is because I don’t wanna go to school tomorrow and because there’s only one or so picture with Smokescreen on my blog.

I asked James Roberts about First Aid and why he didn’t appear with Megatron, Skids, Nautica, and others who joined late, and this is his reply.

bigxbluexbreakdown |

Starscream banked in the air, gliding down toward the ground at a leisurely pace. He transformed at the last second, landing with a light thud near a rocky outcrop. The seeker stretched indulgently, wings fanning out behind him as wiring and joints creaked. He was getting low on fuel; but not low enough to make him panic.

He knew that their last meeting hadn’t exactly been on the friendliest of terms - and that had been his fault. She had every reason to fear and hate him. Now, however, he was a changed mech, the mercies shown to him by the Autobots, the ruthlessness and abandonment of the Decepticons, it had all worked together to help Breakdown reroute his allegiances and swap out the Decepticon logo on his aft for an Autobot logo.

Not knowing what else to do, he got down on one knee, bowed his helm, and laid his right forearm over his left thigh in a gesture of submission and respect. He kept his gaze low, looking at the ground by her feet rather than directly at her.“I, uh. About, the uh, Greece thing. With the stone pillar, and the ‘pet’ remark, and, uh… Yeah, I don’t have an excuse. Much as it hurts to admit when I’m wrong, I uh, I’m sorry.”

➤Ⅱ She wasn’t happy about this one bit. Breakdown, joining the Autobots? At first she’d thought it was some sort of trick, some joke being pulled that just hadn’t finished yet. But when Bulkhead had brought her aside a few hours before to explain that no, it wasn’t a joke and he really was going to be staying with them from now on, she got angry.

How can they trust him so easily? After everything he’s done! Just like that, switching sides? Just like that? Stupid! Stupid, stupid stupid! She thought, glaring at the ground and crossing her arms. Even Jack and Raf seemed fine with it— couldn’t they see this was all wrong? Breakdown wasn’t supposed to be an Autobot! He was supposed to be a con and get his butt kicked by Bulkhead! 

But she’d soon started to realize that that wasn’t going to be the case. He really was here for good, like it or not. She wasn’t prepared for him to suddenly drop down in front of her, however. And she most certainly wasn’t prepared for him to apologize. She glared at him the entire time he did, only growing annoyed by his so called humble display. 

After all, what if it was just all an act? 

There he was, already on his feet, ready to run. This wasn’t going well, and all signs pointed towards it just getting worse. She had every reason to reject him, and not just on account of what he’d done to her, either. His history was full of attempts to beat, humiliate, and otherwise kill the mech she valued above all others. He considered himself lucky he’d encountered Miko first, and not Bulkhead. He could keep it together in front of the human, but to be exposed to further grace and tolerance from Bulkhead would do him in - he’d probably cry, and he was not a mech that cried easily.

“I don’t ask your forgiveness - I do not expect it. I simply wish for you to understand that I am sorry. Primus, I was blinded by... well, that’s not important. I fell into Megatron’s crowd by accident. I followed my friends, which I see now was a clear mistake. I became one of Megatron’s heavy-hitters. Fast, loyal, and enduring. No one stood against me. I’d earned quite a bit of respect from the other ‘Cons, I thought. But the second those fraggers at Mech had me pinned, Megatron turned the other way. Anybot that falls behind, is left behind. Even me.”
