I said I might drop by with questions ;) so: I'll give you a chance to choose who you want to answer about (you can answer about all of them, I don't mind!!!).
So, Swerve, Minimus Ambus, or Ratchet - and here are the questions:
1. Why do you like or dislike this character?
5. What's the first song that comes to mind when you think about them?
10. Could you be best friends with this character?
12. What's a headcanon you have for this character?
14. Assign a fashion aesthetic to this character.
25. What was your first impression of this character? How about now?
The questions come from here!
OMG THANK YOU SO SO MUCH FOR THE ASK !!!
i will answer them all bc i'm just so excited !!
1. I like him so much bc he's so geniunely funny. And also tragic. And it comes in such proportions that he can make you laugh to tears and then the angst comes and punches you straight in the gut and it works just so well.
5. Rodeo Clown by Flipturn.
10. Tbh yeah I can see us yapping away the night totally.
12. He wishes he was born a human sometimes.
14. Filmbro T-shirt + socks + flipflops kind of style.
25. I think I was mostly like "wow what a funny comic relief haha so silly". Now I. I still think he's funny but also apprecate how complicated he is. And deeply sad. To me he is a character that keeps fighting to not be defined by his feeling of loneliness.
1. I LOVE HIM SO MUCH HE IS ONE OF MY TOP TF CHARACTERS. AND IT'S BECAUSE HOW CLEARLY AUTISTIC HE IS, HOW REPRESSED HE IS, HOW MUCH LOVE HE HAS IN HIMSELF AND HOW HE STRUGGLES TO LET IT OUT. I love his idealism, his compassion, is artistic streak, his relationship with himself. I love him for. Everything.
10. I think I could pull that off. Maybe. Depends on the moment in the plot and how closed off he is during it.
12. Even when he started presenting as Minimus Ambus more, rarely using Magnus Armor, he still wears it when he recharges. He's unable to recharge without it.
14. Business casual but with a lot of business and not much of casual.
25. Ok so I've seen him here and there before getting into the comic and thought it was funny that he was a robot with mustache. Now I am. Beyond help about him.
1. I think I was bound to like him on the account on him being Ratchet by default. But there is so much more to him. I love how he is about people, how he can be perceptive but can be still awkward as hell, in a way that can seem cruel. I love how he tries to work on that, to not hurt the ones he loves. I think it's beautiful. Among many other things about him.
5. Pretty Old Man by No Buses.
10. No. I think I'd fumble it so bad. And if he'd even frown at me I'd evaporate. Not a good building ground for friendship.
12. He had situationships with just. So many autobots. Before and during the war.
14. Your Dad kind of style. Polo T-shirt + cargo shorts type shit.
25. I pretty consistently loved him from the start to this very moment there's not much more to say about that.
