I’m Bot & im new-ish to the fandom, but I absolutely adore transformers. I’ve found a lot of mtmte/ll/idw blogs, but if you post: transformers: prime, rescue bots, transformers: animated, or beast wars, then reblog/like this and I’ll check you out!
I would also love to find Cygate, MegOp, Dratchet, StarBee, or other ships! please be aware that I do reblog nsfw stuff sometimes and I am over 20 (but under 25).
it doesn’t need to be ONLY transformers, so don’t worry if your blog is a touch clogged (I know mine usually are lol)
also yes, i know this blog is “transformers slimes”, but I’ve recently hit a bad money patch and haven’t been able to make any. I do have one I need to post, so I’ll do that asap
i need to trim down who im following…. a lot of these blogs dont post tf anymore but lemme know w a like or smth if u post like. tf theories, headcanons, or have a tf art blog or post tf art anywhere here ✌✌✌
There isn’t any term for lover or inbetween those two things and after a little musing with @noblestdecepticon and some swift googling on my part I found a latin word which means lover (there are many but this is my fav).
Amanti endurae.
Lovers (or more than friends) but not spark bonded, or not quite conjunx but more than amica
and it even begins with the first few letters of Amica as though it has elements of friendship and romantical interest as megs suggested.
“Hey who is that over there?” “Oh them? They’re my amanti.”
It just fits so much better than boyfriend or girlfriend if people don’t use pet names for their significant other.
I’m gonna start using this and /no one/ can stop me.
Hey guys, I’m trying to find Transformers blogs that are still active, my dashboard has been pretty empty as of late. I’d really appreciate if you guys would like or reblog this so I can follow.
Edit: let me make it clear real quick. I don’t care if you’re an art blog, writing blog, if you post screenshots of the show or comic, anything goes!
the hilarious thing about mtmte is how little anything has to do with them being robots who can turn into cars. its all like We are tasked with rebuilding the identity of our kind after millenia of what we all believed to be Civil War Without End and everyone has PTSD and people keep Dying Horribly during our Wacky Space Adventures and giving everybody else even Worse PTSD and also a lot of it is Really Funny, Somehow, also we can turn into cars did i mention,
A fine question to ask for National Coming Out Day, well done!
IDW’s approach to Transformers – which is to say that female Transformers have not existed on Cybertron in statistically significant quantity for millions of years – means that, in fact, the whole planet is a “homonormative” society where male bots loving male bots is the standard. In addition to the breakout case of Chromedome and Rewind, other notable ‘bots have included Needlenose and Horri-Bull:
Brainstorm, who had an unrequited crush on Quark:
And Blast Off, revealed to harbour love for his commander Onslaught, who was recently mentally manipulated into returning that affection:
The introduction of Cybertron’s colony worlds, on which female Transformers widely exist, hasn’t changed this any. Same-sex couples are common on colony worlds too, including Knock Out and Breakdown, canonizing the popular fan interpretation of the Transformers Prime characters’ relationship:
And the colonies have opened up the door to female/female couples too, like Greenlight and Lancer:
and Jumpstream and Dustup:
Special mention has to Lug and Anode, a pair of assigned-male-at-birth Transformers from Cybertron who ventured out into the universe and gained a new understanding of gender through their encounters with other alien species. Deciding that “female” fit them better, they transitioned to become the first transgender lesbian Transformers couple.
Now, this isn’t a complete list – there are other minor characters, some from further back in Transformers history who are…. llllllets say, less-enlightened depictions of LGBTQ individuals. We once made a post about that history, and you can also check our Transformer romance article for a more complete list of relationships.
