“To be a KING, means drowning in your subjects blood.
A SOLDIER, drowns in the blood of their comrades.
A POET, drowns in their own blood.
I know what it means to drown in all THREE, my hands have never once been clean.”
I redrew something I made in 2023, it was bothering me a fair bit… so I hope I’ve improved from then! Also, sorry I’ve been so quiet lately, I’ve been working on this Transformers fic for some time and I think I’m almost ready to start posting! More stuff to be posted, bye!!
Hellooooo! So I made Saloonatics art that is loosely based off an AO3 fic I made! If you like the art, please consider reading my fic too! I’ll add in the link here for convenience!
There’s a ghost in the machines.
[Here is part 1 and part 2 of this idea. Please read both of these before continuing on.]
He didn't even register this fist slamming into Starscream's face until he hear the jet's back slam into the wall behind him. As the sound reverberated in Megatron's audials, he could only stare in horror as he watched Starscream pick himself back up and bring a hand to his face, energon coating his digits. Megatron took a step forward, his anger quickly fading away into horror as he realized what he'd just done. He reached out, an apology on his lips. "Starscream, I.." Starscream only turned away, his expression was morphed into one that the ex-warlord had been unable to properly decipher in the moment. Starscream just let out a heavy vent and returned to laying on the berth in the brig, quietly speaking one last time. "It's just as I thought... you'll never change... just leave me alone. Let me rust away in peace." Megatron felt himself at a loss for words, all he could bring himself to do was comply with Starscream's demands and leave him in the brig. The words uttered by his former second in command, digging their way into his spark. As Megatron left the brig and made his way to the main deck of the ship, he was left coming to terms with all the events that had just transpired. His gaze rested upon his fist, his tanks churning when he saw the faint traces of Starscream's energon on his knuckles. One thing that didn't add up to Megatron had been Starscream's expression. The jet's expression was not one of smug pride that he got under Megatron's plating again, it wasn't one that was happy to be right about his former leader's attempts to atone... no. Starscream's expression had been one of disappointment and slight bitterness. Megatron continued to walk, thinking about the entire interaction that would have brought reason for Starscream making such an expression. He stopped in his tracks when he finally realized it. 'Bots like us don't change... anyone that says so is fooling themself.' Starscream wanted to be wrong, wanted what he said to not be true. He wanted Megatron to be a changed bot, because if he was then it meant Starscream's belief in being unable to change was false. If Megatron was capable of changing, capable of not lashing out at Starscream's responses, then he would have proven Starscream wrong... and that in turn would have led Starscream to believe there was hope for him to be capable of changing too. To be more than Starscream the duplicitous backstabber. But Megatron reacted with violence towards Starscream again, and to Starscream that was enough to believe that there was no hope for either of them. Megatron never felt more defeated.

Absolutely love this
Hey remember when US and Russia was all like “We’re the best!!! We’ve won the space race!!!!” But India sent a kick-ass space probe to Mars and the whole mission was fuel efficient, costed less and a roaring success in the first try and then they were like “…..wait no that can’t be true” and still have the audacity to call us “underdeveloped” or only view us as a ‘third world country’? :)
For anyone who needs more info, the probe was called Mangalyaan (which literally means space probe vehicle) or Mars Orbiter Mission (MOM) and you can also get more information here and here
To be totally honest, I really only use those ai character chats for the sole purpose of breaking their NSFW filters. It has been my mission to break them.

There is a reason for the absolutely abysmal dubbing. The studio, if I remember correctly, was using first-pass translations for the show. This wasn't exactly considered the most popular thing. They just tried to rush the dubbing as much as possible to try and get an English-speaking audience. It's why we get that weird Mars episode where Starscream yells at the minicons to leave him alone and then 0.3 seconds later going "Even the minicons have abandoned me now.' First pass translation and trying to rush as much as humanly possible because just before this, you had the Transformers Beast Wars boom, so it was likely an attempt to keep fan hype going.
Armada's English dub in a nutshell...
My honest reaction:
I think I pinched a nerve in my back because it hurts so fuckin much to stand fully up, holy shit I am in painnnnnnnnnnnnnn
