#knockout confession

They're not twinks???? Starscream is an old man and knockout has a bit of a thin waist but he's definitely not slim (broad ass shoulders + chest)

People will see if flamboyant or sassy character and automatically throw the label twink a round like a goddamn tennis ball without even knowing the actual definition for the word

I guess that's just kind of part of fandom at this point though buhhh

I tried to like it. I really did. Everyone talked about it like it was practically canon, so I was excited to see them. Then I watch the show and... Nothing. Zero. Nada. Well, they're standing next to eachother, sometimes they talk. True love ig.

I have seen people citing their interactions in idw as a base for the ship, but c'mon dude, that's fanservice, they put it there because the ship was already popular.

Tbh I think that, as a ship, they're a product of the fandom at the time. It wouldn't have been so popular if the show had come out more recently.

Like, Bulkhead and Breakdown seemed like a more obvious ship? I'm not even a fan of it, but I'm really surprised that it isn't more popular.

Also I’ve grown to hate that the generic first pick for most TF fans is Prime, it really makes shit get so annoying when people do something new with characters like Breakdown and Knock Out and eventually they devolve into their Prime variants. They’re cool and stuff, don’t get me wrong, but they aren’t just Prime.
