- Attempted date/something new. They head to an amusement park at night. Maybe Blitz saw it active during the day and wanted to see what all the hype was about. And what’s this ‘Tunnel of Love?’ Humans are weird.
- For this I’m pulling from another’s idea (I feel bad that I can’t remember who off the top my head). Basically it was Icy able to freeze water particles in the air, and Hothead having small flame breath. Why I bring this up? Well Op is curious about Blitz’s faces. If Random has his long glossia, then surely the other two have some hidden interesting tidbit about them.
- Where Earth doesn’t have energon, or easy means of getting it, maybe they just talk about what alternative fuels they prefer. Op can get nicer grade since he’s friends with the public and doesn’t need a lot. Blitz is/was kinda stuck with shittier lower grade since he has to steal a lot for his two tanks. What do you know by next meet up Op has a rather suspicious amount of high grade oil. (Yes I know the Cons have high grade to get the Constructicons working, but that was after Meg was rebuilt. This likely would take place prior to that when Blitz and Lug were still newish to the planet)
- Wing preening! Personal love of mine. Blitz having something stuck in his gear joints, its obviously bothering him, ‘No it doesn’t. I can get it out myself later’ he cant that’s why he’s stuck with it. Op, of course, eventually breaking through because this is our silly version of House. Blitz melts because holy heck. Gentle touch. Wings sensitiveee. Why the hell does it feel good? Maybe ends with Blitz falling asleep on Op. Don’t save him, Op doesn’t need rescuing. Actually that could be an idea on its own.
- Tired Blitz falling asleep on Op cause he finally feels safe enough to do so/Megs is overworking him; Op needing to deal with the consequences of being buried under triple-changer.
- Of course, as with all things delicious, hurt. Could be the aftermath of a battle, a natural disaster, a mission gone wrong and now the city had one less bridge. Blitz digging Op out of rubble. Op trying to convince his team to help them dig Blitz out of rubble (and maybe not take the Con captive since are we sure he can fly away with those gashes in his wings?) Blitz figuring a way to get an injured Op out of Meg’s captivity. Op trying to get Ratchet to patch up an injured and captive Blitz. What do you mean Megs, that crack in the wall was always there, and we were always low on medical supplies. What do you mean team, our warehouse never had the structural support to hold a Con, and those stasis cuffs were likely messed up by Earth’s humid atmosphere.
- Op figuring out how to make and bringing a Cybertronian-safe snow cone and other human treats. Random is ecstatic.
- Icy, having to hide his new obsession infatuation from Megs, had hastily tucked a carving of Op into his subspace. Said subspace opens during a date.
- Hothead and Op find an abandoned area. One frustration gets said. A bit of rubble kicked. No human can really tell a Cybertronian did that. Another frustration, a ruined wall crumbles. They’re far enough from the city that no one can hear them. A frustration is shouted. The abandoned block becomes a big rage room. It’s in shambles when they are done, but it felt so good to pair frustration with explosive action.
- So remember that jetpack Op got in the later part of season 3? Forget that Blitz was caught by Elite Guard. We hate Sentinel enough that he messes up somewhere. Anyways. Op trying to fly, to as much success we saw in the show. With his team of grounders, Op isn’t getting much help. It was only when he took it with him on his nightly outings does he get better. Ratchet has his hunch, but its making Prime happy and more clear headed, so he won’t mention it to the rest of the team. (Aka Blitz and Op have a flying date)
I might come back with more, but hopefully this is enough to satiate you for a bit. The more I wrote this the more I realized my own starvation.

THANK YOU FOR THE BUFFET. ANON. WHAT DID WE EVER DO TO DESERVE YOU .。.:*☆ !!
gonna put my thoughts under this cut rq—
1/Fair Date: kwuejeuej, that’d be kinda funny to see cause they’re so much larger than everyone else and fairs are still open at night so people would still be around. I’ve seen crispy-art-on-fire circumvent this by having OP be in his alt & BW hide where his trailer would be. I wonder if the lights would remind him of Cybertron, ykw from before he was exiled for aiding a prospective dictator. Maybe the backwater planet would have him appreciating the smaller things & what people can do when they’re free. (They could even reflect on both their respective factions, since the autobot government also seems pretty shady…) (One of the ideas i find compelling is them still believing the the causes of their respective factions, cause i find it hard to kinda ignore that, and their affairs are kinda like “it’s not treason if you’re trying to get them to defect” lol) The tunnel of love thing is interesting! They’re too big to fit in the little gondolas. I keep thinking of Blitzwing floating thru the river with Optimus on his back lol
2/Faces; I never thought it was only Randy with the invader zim tongue! (Even though i think it’s all headcanons anyway?) That it was like, metal plates sliding over the same internal structure. Nonetheless, that’s pretty neat!
3/Energon; awwwe ksuehehd that chivalrous bastard.
4/Wings; That’s so cute!! I wanna draw thattt, if i do, ill link it here ☆*:.。.
5/Tired Blitz; kajsjajjajsja OP tries to play it off like they were fighting, and maybe they were, but the fact he felt safe enough to drop unconscious in front of him remains. (even if that did probably get him captured)
6/Captured What-Ifs; Someone who can write fics please write a fic about either of these, this sounds both so funny and sweet at the same time. I could see Ratchet patching up the triple changer, but only to give him a stern talking to up close, like warnings & whatnot.
7/Snow Cones; Awwwe cute <3
8/Carving; ksjwhejwhs I love seeing people try to hide how Not Normal they are about something! He’s a war criminal, he’s not gonna be normal no siree bob
9/Rage Room; Ooooh this seems like an interesting scene (take a shot every time i say interesting if you have a death wish) especially with Hothead. I also have a bit of a comic idea for this one so if I draw that i’ll link it here heeheehee ☆*:.。.
10/Flying Date; Peak peak peak. I could also see OP pre-relationship, crush, everything, using battles against a crushing Blitzwing to train before the big fight. We see him use his wits to ragebait his opponents into making mistakes a good few times in the series, Expert Ragebaiter X Most Gullible Decepticon is something I think about sometimes lol. Blitzwing is mostly angry about letting himself get tricked like that, then giddy he gets to be near his crush, then angry again about being giddy lmao
Gecko-anon, you are a gem and I salute you and your contributions to the Blitzop propaganda team on this day 🫡💝✨
I genuinely wonder if people realize how many projects get abandoned because the readership "wasn't there", when in reality, the readership just stayed silent. It's a big thing in trad pub that book series get discontinued because readers pirate the books or wait until the series is finished to buy a copy, leading the publisher to think that nobody actually wants the book enough to continue the series, but it happens with indie creators too.
I've discontinued a lot of free, online series because it's not worth putting 3-5 hours a week into posting a project for no readers. Sometimes I finish the series for me but just never post it again, other times I don't finish it at all because it feels more worthwhile to put my time into other things. Sometimes I hear from readers who are sad or upset that I didn't finish something they were liking, but the *reason* it never got finished is because I didn't know anyone liked it. If you like something, tell the creator, tell your friends, make some noise about it. If you would be sad if a story never finished, make that interest known because one of my biggest considerations before discontinuing a series is "will people miss this? Will I be letting people down" and 9/10 times, I come to the conclusion of "no, it doesn't even seem like anyone's reading this" only to learn after I've moved on that apparently someone was.
I've said this before in a different way, and this post said it so well. With real examples.
If you like something, tell people.
If you want more content from an artist or author, if you like their stuff, tell them. It will give them creative fuel to keep going. And often it gives them other resources as well.
Recommend a work to other people. Leave a comment or a review. It doesn't have to be long, just genuine, a sentence or two.
Not many people know that a book's success is judged by book reviews as well as sales. Review the book on Amazon or another site to help it pass the metric of success and be recognized by publishers and retailers.

I made this for a manga drawing contest a little while ago. It was a really fun concept, they gave a complete storyboard for a short story and you had to draw the final pages in any style you wanted. I wish there were more contests like this, I really enjoyed it! :3
BlitzOp idea: Optimus suffering from trauma-induced nightmares, leading him to become an insomniac, so Blitzwing tries to "fix" it with... Cuddles.
dude that is so schmoopy, i love it.
The thing is that, with Blitzwing, most things about him could lead you to think he’s way more familiar with traumatic nightmares than Optimus from firsthand experience or otherwise. Going off of that, either he totally believes it would work from stellar cycles of being a post-war decepticon, or he’s totally bs-ing exaggerating the effectiveness cause he wants cuddles and y’know, it couldn’t hurt. Or, maybe even he suggests it cause it’s what he wishes he had when times were hard. I doubt a decepticon so close to Megatron’s inner circle would ever in a million years admit to longing for comfort, unless it was someone really really important and close to them, if that makes sense. Any of those three sound interesting to explore!
Or if we pivot from narrative-driven concepts to pure fluff; Optimus being an insomniac and Blitzwing essentially just pins him to the recharge slab/wtv-it-is & is like “Whatever. I’m here, i’ll protect you or wake you up if you’re fretting.” Op’s just like “Wow thanks, this is unexpectedly intimate, it means a lot to me” “No it isn’t, and no it doesn’t. Go to sleep. Before I whack you unconscious.” (<- flustered)
(Blitzwing name headcanons jumpscare:) Icicles (pronounced like a greco-roman name eg. heracles cause i think that’s fun) is trying his best to pretend like it’s purely ergonomic and Op’s like “Yeah, sure. Totally.” Hothead (That’s the only one of the three canon nicknames that sounds like a transformers-y name to me lol) is just like “Shut up! Go the hell to sleep!” Tsundere kine behavior. Randall (I think he’d find that nickname a hoot, like Steve the vehicon haha) is the only one to be actually snuggly, even if he is hiding behind a layer of irony.
I kinda wanna make a short comic out of this. If I get around to it, i’ll link it here ☆
Okay I think I'm false love'd out, Blitzwing and his bab, o having and holding the most adorable baby alive (he's totally not biased because they're his)

i think one thing that gets missed in discussions of like. “okay depiction of abuse/problematic dynamics” where the person is on the side of “it's fine to depict problematic things as long as the victim is clearly traumatized/not enjoying it” is that a part of the way in which abuse functions is by changing what intuitively feels good or bad to a person, that is to say, why people stay in abusive relationships is bc your brain can be wired, as a result of sustained trauma, to only feel comfortable or at-home in such situations, and to not recognise that anything is wrong in the first place. that is how conditioning and grooming work, it's how people stay in awful situations for years... and how do you depict that? an abusive relationship is still a relationship, real victims have loved and continue to love those who perpetrate intimate violence against them. you can, from a distance, see and say that the love is wrong and should not exist. but when you're narrating a story from close quarters, you can't effectively differentiate without context, an author depicting as romantic a manifestly abusive relationship and a victim and perpetrator whose inherent sense of themselves, of right and wrong, of boundaries, and acceptable forms of intimacy, has been warped through abuse.
Lolita is a book that appears to be about seduction but is really about rape. The Incest Diary presents itself as the inverse, a book apparently about rape but really about seduction. But this conceit betrays the further truth — call it the secret under the secret under the secret — that sometimes rape and seduction, coercion and desire, are not opposed at all. This is why the question of whether or not a child “wants it” is irrelevant to the morality of pedophilia (something both pedophiles and many reviewers of The Incest Diary overlook): not because children don’t want it — or do want it — but because “wanting it” is itself something so easily formed by adult violence. And not just the declaration of the wanting — what is a child’s “let’s fuck” but a simulacrum of consent? — but the wanting itself. When a victim of sexual abuse says she wanted it, she is telling us about the sort of person the abuse required her to be. The author says that it is only “as if” her sexual obsession is being raped by the man who created her. Here she is hanging back, knowingly, from the bleaker truth: It is not merely “as if” she is sexually obsessed with the man who gave her half her genetic material, fed and clothed her, made her into a thing that would desire him forever. She is sexually obsessed with him. How, indeed, could it be otherwise? Describing her father letting her out of the closet in which he had locked her, she asks, “How could I not love the man who set me free?”
Silent Treatment: The troubling response to a memoir of incest
Linguists who claim that no words are truly "untranslatable", then launches into a 5000 word explanation of a concept that doesn't exist in the target language.
Look, I get that sometimes you need to modify existing concepts with an adjective/adverb or preposition, so I'll give you a few world. But it you need more than five words to "translate" a foreign one, you haven't translated it, you have explained or defined it, and the word is untranslatable.
For example, using some of the most common language examples from Swedish to English: the swedish word "mångata" is easily translated as "moonlight shining on still-ish water". "Fika", on the other and, could just be translated as "coffee break", but then you'd lose 98% of the context: it doesn't have to have coffee, it could be a lighter meal, like a snack, it doesn't have to be a break, it can happen at home, it's usually a very communal activity, but it doesn't have to be, but it if it is, it kind of requires you to sit down together, however briefly. The archetype has baked goods, like pastries or open face sandwiches, but I have friends who refer to their mid-morning rice cakes as fika because she can't have gluten. You see the issue. That wasn't a translation.
Thank u for coming to my TED talk.
