PROPAGANDA:

[Stan]

"It would be funny if the twin of the winner won."

"He would be an amazing dad, even though at first he is gruff and a bit reckless, you can see as the series goes on, how deeply he loves and cares for the people closest to him, he would do anything for his family, and he would be the most dedicated dad out there."

"Gotta get both twins knocked up."

"why should Ford have all the fun? also Stan would be a WAY better dad than Ford."

"HED BE SUCH A SINGLE DAD I NEED HIM PREGNANT AND STRUGGLING WITH A BABY AND RAISING HER THE BEST HE CAN AND SOMETIMES FAILING BUT OVER ALL MAKING IT WORK I CAN PICTURE HIM USING HIS PREGNANT BELLY AS AN ICECREAM TABLE WHILE HE WATCHES DUCKTECTIVE AND PERIOD DRAMAS."

"He's the sexier more breedable brother to me but also I just think it'd be funny if he won the second time around since Ford won the first one :)"

Grunkle Stan propaganda from last season

[Starscream]

"He would be STRUTTING with it. He's gonna raise an ARMY of LOYAL UNDERLINGS and they're going to make him RULER OF THE UNIVERSE. also he would be fucking miserable and so so angry and i think that would be fun."

"I need need need my conniving flying bastard man to be pregnant, he'd be so insufferable about it. Can you imagine? TFP Starscream would use his pregnancy as a way to manipulate the autobots and pretend to "care so much about my precious baby" and then he'd stab everyone in the back. G1 Starscream would have a bunch of grand dreams of shaping his baby into the ultimate Megatron-killing weapon and then they rule the galaxy together."

"I need to see him manipulate someone into getting him pregnant only to abort it in an attempt to hurt them only to have no effect at all. I need this."

"He’s funny and endlessly miserable in most continuities and I think being pregnant would make him happy even if he complained about it at the time."

"LISTEN……. It would be funny as shit if all the time he tried to usurp Megatron he succeeded in the one thing he didn’t want and lost so disgracefully. And in some media interpretations having “kids” or pets mellows that fucked up prideful and very much traumatized abused but unwilling to admit it and look for help man."

What actually happened:

Let’s say Op fell and Skyfire saved him in a very heroic, very platonic way, ok??

Ok…

What Starscream saw, however, was:

The fanfic in question is Cassette Starscream by Graceful_Storyteller on Ao3

This fic made me fall in love with the idea of Starscream being a cassette and I REALLY want to read more stories about it.

This fic also made me consider the idea of Starscream as a minicon, but I haven't found anything with that concept yet

You're in luck I was already working on this very scenario!

Oh that opens a new world full angst anon, first of all the most affected by starscream death will be Thundercracker and skywarp, they will be devastated and it will trow a wrench at they relationship whit the autobots, they will have an absolute hard time trusting any of them and who knows what they can plot in they grieving.

The second one will be ratchet, he will be more detached because he’s a medic and is a professional but I’m sure he will be depressed for some time because he couldn’t save him.

But my favorite in the angst scale is Optimus. He will blame himself so badly, I’m sure he will look composed on the outside but when he’s alone he will breakdown for the weight of the consequences of the war finally settling on him and making him regret so many things

PROPAGANDA:

[Kirk]

"we can't let those tits go to waste. also he has weird alien shit happening to him at least weekly so mpreg would probably be pretty canon compliant."

"He's the OG mpreg, possibly the first mpreg fanart in fandom history is of him. He deserves this title more than anyone else."

"My mum asked what i was doing and she suggested Captain Kirk sooo… you hate my mum if u say no."

The Doctor is In by @doomspoon888 will always and forever hold the crown for my fav TF fic ever written

Immortalizing my favorite scene Ch 21!

dearest Sunstorm…he’s terrible but yet I’m very attached to him in this fic. if I ever get my grubby hands on Ch 24 oh ouch. the first touch he’s ever felt from another bot and it’s violent. oh okay. ME WHEN I LOSE BC MY FAV GOT BEAT BUT I STILL WIN BC I LOVE ANGST

This leads to people like Jazz having to go "Use your words Prowl."

And Prowl just looks at him all pissed like 'Just do what I think! Its not that hard!'

And sometimes the constructicons just speak for him.
