One of the things that’s a real shame about the end of the IDW continuity is that this is such an intriguing take on the Junkions and yet we barely got to dig into them.
Yes, Ratchet, your servos are precious and must be cared for.
@adhesivesandscrap I assume the servo maintenance is a bit like a hand massage, and I could see it being part of a whole medic culture thing. Having medics make a social activity out of taking care of each others servos because those servos are sensitive and medics know all the ways to make it feel good. Just imagine Drift insisting on learn the best techniques, so he can help Ratchet with making sure his joints aren’t too tight or collecting debris in difficult places. Or better yet, Ratchet falling back on this trick to calm mechs down if they’re having some sort of panic attack. Even if mechs with less sensitive servos don’t get the full effect, it would be incredibly calming.
Yaaaaasssssssss. It’s rare for non-medics or those who aren’t at least scientists to be allowed to groom a medic’s hands. Goes for any frametype and their own specialised pieces. Flightframes and their wings/turbines, racing types and their wheels/shocks/suspension, etc.
Lol I have Drift doing that in Bet My Life and it leads to their first kiss. (It’s in Chapter 11) It continues into the sequel and holy shit they’re SO CUTE.
“Do we not all experience such a thing once in our lives? Though my dreams are not frequent occurrences, I can recall one I found odd.”
“I awoke in a clearing of land, not unlike the quiet fields of earth, surrounded by a chilling breeze and utter silence. In the body of an organic beast, I felt compelled to wander this new environment.”
“That was when I saw it; a figure on the horizon. Its form familiar and yet so alien.”
“We became still, watching the other in the silence, unchanging.”
“And then I woke up- with more questions than answers.
Ok: Two new really stupid Decepticons that go around causing mishaps and accidents around Griffon Rock, but their basically harmless.
A problem, but manageable: A minor Decepticon that would cause accidents and would actually fight the bots, but is still easily defeated.
Bad Times for Eveyone: Starscream, Soundwave, or some other major Decepticon.
Worst Possible Outcome: Megatron/Megatronus
OH MY GOD THEIR FUCKING DEAD: The DJD/Overlord
Counterpoint: any Decepticon, even the most dangerous, but they’re forced to abide by the rules of a show for small children. Soundwave’s causing mayhem at the radio station. Astrotrain refuses to let humans ride the train to work, because the trains are his friends and ‘it’s undignified’. Starscream has declared himself mayor and refuses to give the sash back.
Megatron emancipates everyone’s washing machines. No one can get anything done and tha washing machines are trying to eat city hall.
If the IDW reboot turns out to be set in alternative timeline that Springer created while mucking around in the past then honestly that would be amazing.
Here’s that one thing I did a while ago! Written by my friend Roberto Martinez, and drawn/colored/lettered by me. It’s called “Grimlock Goes to the Store” featuring a very G1 Grimlock and the Scavengers. Please enjoy this silly little comic! :’D
This is beyond amazing, I love this – amazing work!
