Introduction post! *waves*
I finally decided to do an intro post, mainly to list my fic ideas more clearly and to add silly screenshots so why not!
Hello, my name is Sol Dial! I’m an AroAce gal (she/they) and I currently love Transformers things. I do art and write fics (ao3 is Sol_Dial), mainly of Transformers things, but also of Marvel occasionally. After all, this blog was created for Marvel things (Avengers Assemble SteveTony) (also points to pfp of a comic panel of Captain America | Steve Rogers and Iron Man | Tony Stark), which I still love Marvel things, it’s just that currently Transformers things have consumed my mind <3, like Transformers Prime, Rescue Bots, Rescue Bots Academy, Robots in Disguise (2015), the g1 series, Cyberverse, Cyberworld, Animated, the More Than Meets The Eye comics, and the various other comics!
I also love reading (fantasy books, nature books, graphic novels, comics), music (game and movie soundtracks, covers from drums, guitars, flutes, violins, etc.), birds (so many birds you have no ideaaa), Pokémon, Deltarune, Undertale, Lego Ninjago. There are probably many more, and others things I reblog, so just going with the flow and might just reblog whatever :3
Feel free to send me asks, whether anon or not, about Transformers things. I would love to ramble about any Transformers shows, characters, my fics, or whatever else!
I prefer talking/rambling via comments, reblogs, and asks--not really DMs but unless we're mutuals then I don't mind!
For my Transformers fics, I’m currently doing a thing where they are all connected series, which I dubbed “Sol Dial’s ao3 Transformers continuity universe.” So, listed below are the fics included (excluding “Caught in the Crossfire, So Much For That Happy Ending” since it’s not a fix-it/Breakdown stays dead...and this series is where Breakdown lives) where there are links for easy access! I will occasionally edit this post to mark my progress (Pill Machine Team is the name I gave for the group of medics that include Ratchet, Blades, Knockout, Breakdown, and honorary member Medix):
[ALREADY PUBLISHED ON ao3] “Speedrunning Revelations” (Canon Divergence of Prime's s1 ep11 "Speed Metal” with a KoBd focus) [ALREADY PUBLISHED ON ao3] “Suffering In Silence (Is Not The Solution)” (Blades' lack of recharge due to nightmares) [WIP] Chase and Blades’ detective novel adventure (I'm a silly book lover nerd and will actually base the fic on one of my favorite mystery/detective novels and going all in with notes and references...) [ALREADY PUBLISHED ON ao3] “The Helicopterbot From Another Team” (Ratchet learns about the Rescue Bots' existence and meets Blades) [ALREADY PUBLISHED ON ao3] “A Love Today and Forever” (Canon divergence of Rescue Bots s3 ep26 “Today and Forever” where Ratchet goes to Griffin Rock to help the Rescue Bots. Then Bumblebee shows up!) [ALREADY PUBLISHED ON ao3] “A Separated Family” (the angsty 5+1 fic in Chase's POV, canon divergence of Rescue Bots s4 ending) [WIP] The huge Rescue Bots + Prime + RiD 2015 crossover, where Blades is captured by the Decepticons when he and Blurr visit Team Bee. Cue much, much angst! [WIP] A follow-up from previous fic, where Breakdown lives! It's the KoBd fluff joining Team Prime, trying to get used to their new team [ALREADY PUBLISHED ON ao3] “4 Medics and a Sparkling” (where Pill Machine Team first work together during an intense medical situation, with sparkling Medix being taken care of! [ALREADY PUBLISHED ON ao3] “Let me see what you have. A WRENCH! NO!” (Pill Machine Team, featuring sparkling Medix with a wrench...what can go wrong? :D) [ALREADY PUBLISHED ON ao3] “Date Idea: Drive-in movies and—IS THAT MECHANICAL BULL GETTING CLOSER?” (Knockout visits Griffin Rock for the first time, searching for a drive-in movie theater since the one in Jasper, Nevada is under construction. Mechanical bull, a rogue lawn mower, and a ruined finished. Spa day with Blades and Knockout! ) [WIP] Blades is forced by his fellow medics and Bumblebee to a long, over-due check-up by Ratchet. Cue dinobot shenagians. Medix is here to help! [WIP] Protectobots missing Blades. Blades and Bumblebee take a tour around a rebuilding Cybertron, where Blades reminiscences old times as a recruit and Bumblebee angsts over what his childhood could have been like if he wasn't in the war. They find sparkling Medix, are followed, revealed it’s the protectobots! [WIP] Bumblebee and Ratchet find the secret list of all the times Blades got injured while at Griffin Rock. Then the protectobots, Ratchet, and Bumblebee have a talk with Optimus about being the cause of Blades’ danger and injuries. Wrench :3 [WIP] Pill Machine Team shengangians at Griffin Rock. Knockout and Breakdown visit Griffin Rock (for the first time!) to play a new virtual game in the Hall of Inspiration (cough cough Animal Hospital from Roblox) with Blades and Ratchet!
Now my excuse to add some fav screenshots from Transformers media (limiting self to 3 per media). Order: The Transformers g1 cartoon, Transformers Prime, Transformers Rescue Bots, Transformers Rescue Bots Academy, Transformers Animated, Transformers More Than Meets the Eye comics, and other Transformers comics (Transformers: Holiday Special, Transformers: Wreckers Tread & Circuits) (Torchbearers | Victorion panels because one of my fav combiners <3)
And finally, the tags below are the main tags I use, in the tags :D!
