"What could he do, should've been a father but he never made it to his twenties. What a waste, army dreamers. Ooh, what a waste of army dreamers" I've recently been watching some war films for research purposes for a short film project I'm hoping to complete by the end of the year, of course, All Quiet on the Western Front is my favorite movie, I've seen the 1930s one before but never gotten around to the 2022 one.It's possibly one of my favorite films ever and I've never sobbed as much, I've brought the book as well and will be reading it over the week. Volker Bertelmann will pay for my therapy bills because this movie's score is hauntingly beautiful and fills me with such grief. If you haven't seen it yet, I highly recommend it <3

look I completely understand that Paul sees Kat as a family/mentor/father (??) figure but ch. 5 had me raising a singular eyebrow for a second

Transformers fandom, hear me out !

How do you think human characters (no matter the continuity) would react to the bots having relationships (romantic) with a human ?

YESSSS

everytime i go into the bayverse starscream tag i see people going “i love ever starscream so so much (except for bayverse fuck him)” and you’re missing the appeal of this giant metal bird. I unironically love his design so much. He’s got funky bird legs and the weird extra thumb on each hand. he’s got these’s purple highlights on his cheeks that are the only instances of purple on his character design. And the fucking tattoos are cool and i wish they had more too them more than like. updated character design and a quick explanation in a tie-in comic. also on the topic of tie-in comics reign of starscream proceeds to do some fucking wild stuff with his anatomy and I love it. no one understands me.

I’M DYING TO TALK ABOUT THIS.

My biggest pet peeve in Transformers media and fanfiction sometimes is that Transformers aren't treated as aliens. They are referred to as aliens, they obviously are aliens, but they never feel like they are aliens because they are always written or seen as having all human mannerisms or features usually. Human posture, human noses, human mannerisms, humanoids...

What about TFA's cat noses or TFP's helm noses? One of the reasons I think those two shows have peak designs is because they have this lack of uncanniness to humans design wise. I'm not looking at a human being as a robot, I'm looking at an alien robot, ones that have claws, ones that have different body types that blend with their vehicle modes, ones with horrific mutilations and designs impossible by human standards. I love seeing that type of stuff in Transformers because to me, it makes them feel alien without completely changing the premises of similarities to where we can't compare their culture or likeness to humans. The films (mostly 1 and 2) showed off this as well.

Another thing I really would like to see in Transformers media is non-human interactive qualities. What do I mean by that? One thing I've noticed is aside from techno-organic species, regular Cybertronians do have a few qualities found in animals. Engine humming I believe was once used as a form of purring in the films and in some of the cartoons. Humans can't purr; cats can, and that small detail is always interesting to come across because it's like "wow, they have this feature that shows off a trait found in Cybertronians. That is so cool." You have them with multiple voice boxes for mechanical, natural, and human-like tones which is also an animal trait. Bumblebee is self-explanatory in most universes being able to still make sounds yet not talk. They have sensors across their body that don't act like the basic human receptors. Most animals can do more than just feel through certain points of their bodies. They can taste, smell, or even hear a hundred times better than a human being throughout various body parts, and Transformers have been hinted to have this ability too, especially through their servos. It's stuff like this that expands upon their existence as aliens.

They have extreme durability, their body morphs to extremes and can also double as a moving weapon (most obvious of course), some of them can make ungodly roars and creature-like noises to warn or show their threatening demeanor (Megatron's dinosaur-like growling), some can have two rows of teeth (a flat base in front and fangs hidden behind), and some of them have mimicking animal-like features (Starscream's bird-shaped feet with visible expansion the same as organic foot padding with similar distributive weight physics in a few universes) despite having no beast mode. There's probably more I can't think of on the top of my head in canon, but all those things are not heavily used as they should be to make them feel alien. They can still hold some relation to the humans they interact with, but I think a lot of Transformers are more than just metal "humans", you know?

Depending on the universe in fanfiction and who you encounter who writes it or not, you have several things that are always cool to see. They have to sparkbond (merging of hearts) above everything else to create a sparkling's life force with interface as just the extra for physical coding features. I've seen people use the non-canon heat cycles which are, of course, our fandom way of making a type of breeding euphemism akin to an animal's cycle. You have the common phrasing of nuzzling, heightened senses, armor and certain parts of the helm acting like fur or ears where it raises and flattens per their mood, and some Transformers have limb dissonance where if necessary, they can convert between bipedal and quadrupedal stances (best example is Bulkhead and Lugnut from TFA who have long arms but short legs and they have the bulky structure where they could possibly run like an animal briefly and the physics of it would work).

So, you have all these different things a common Cybertron most likely would be able to do or have but a human couldn't, and it's never utilized to their full potential. I would like to see people address the nature of Cybertronians as alien and not be afraid to make them alien. I think that's the biggest flaw in our franchise is that everyone is scared of making the Transformers not the humanoid "norm" and getting ridiculed for it. Like, they're aliens, you can make them act however animal-like or completely batshit insane as you want them. You can give them powers, animal-based senses, and behaviors hidden among a human thought process. And technically, you wouldn't be wrong to what they could be as a living creature in the universe by doing so. They aren't humans; they look humanoid, but they aren't us. Why should they have to be in every regard?

Thank you for reading my TED Talk.

more mlm ghost x reader please but with “There are rumors about us.” “I know. I spread them.” as the prompt if youre down

ok this one WORMED into my brain so i had to pump it out real quick.

simon “ghost” riley x reader || 800 words, fluff/SFW (suggestive themes)

It’s midnight. You’re holed up in the glorified watcher tower, a little nest of sandbags and cement blocks, reading a paperback. Not technically up to regulation, but it’s been quiet. If you have to stare, bored out of your mind, into the darkness for one more moment without some stimulation, you’re going to end it all. You’re likely to cause more mess with a body cleanup. 

“And that’s doing a service,” you mutter, flipping the torn, dog-eared page. “He should thank me.”

Footsteps behind you, and you toss the book into the corner as if it will disappear once it leaves your hands. 

“You leave your six open and expect gratitude?” 

Ghost ascends the dirt ramp up to your station. He’s not fully kitted out, just the straps of his holster cupped around broad shoulders (distracting) and the mask. 

“My six was not open,” you deny, because it absolutely was. “I heard you.”

“Only because I wanted you to.” 

This is certainly true. He’s got the name for a reason, and you’ve seen firsthand the way he moves on a battlefield, quiet and quick, moving like smoke until he’s on a target. Then it’s all insanely brutal force. 

Your lieutenant settles in next to you on your sandbag bench, shoving his hip against yours to make space in a way that would be impolite, if it weren’t absolutely necessary with the size of him. 

Still, the company is welcome, and you delight in the warm press of his body against yours. Just another thing not up to regulation about tonight, you suppose. 

“People are gonna keep talkin’, LT,” you tease, laying a hand on the man’s leg. You draw indistinct shapes on his black kneepad. “Always wanna hang around me like flies on shit.” 

Ghost snorts at the comment. He leans back into a slouch, the kind of relaxation he only does away from prying eyes, and tips his chin down to look at you. One arm slides back behind your neck, palm cupping the back of your skull as he pulls you close against his side. 

“Gonna submit a complaint about me?” He asks, deadpan. 

“Now that’ll really get the rumors going.” You laugh, shaking your head. When he’s quiet, one of your eyebrows quirks. “You know there are rumors, right?” 

Your fingers trace upwards, tuck into one the pockets of his cargo pants. More than a little possessive, like you always get when this conversation comes up. Not quite suggestive, not quite innocent. 

“About?” 

Eyes rolling, you gesture between the two of you with your free hand. “About us, LT.” Your lips curl coyly. “What we get up to when you trot off after me like a puppy dog.” 

“Oh,” Ghost says, his head jerking in a nod of understanding. His knuckles stroke under your jaw, an absent-minded habit he recently picked up. “Those. I’m aware.” 

This surprises you. Ghost’s on top of nearly everything that goes amongst the task force members. What Price knows, he probably does. And what Price doesn’t know, well, Ghost also probably knows about that. But he’s remained almost oblivious to the gossip in a way that seemed uncharacteristic. You honestly had just chalked it up to his lackluster social skills and awareness. 

“You know about them?” 

He snorts again, this time nearly a full, rolling laugh that makes his chest jump. 

“Of-fucking-course I know about the rumors I started.” 

You — what?

“Huh?” You mutter dumbly, twisting a little to look at him head-on. “What the fuck?”

Ghost lifts the boot attached to the leg you’re holding onto, propping it on his opposite knee. Settling in, as if he’s planning on staying on watch with you for the remainder of the night.

“You’re lying.”

He shrugs. “Swear down.”

This, as you have picked up, is his equivalent of cross my heart. He’s not lying. Ghost started rumors, really explicit ones, about the two of you. For what purpose, you’re determined to uncover.

You hum thoughtfully and settle back against his side. “Well, the filthy details make a lot more sense. Thought they were weirdly accurate.”

He chuckles. “Detail makes ‘em juicier. More believable.”

“Yeah, but, did you have to tell everyone about that time in Hungary?“ Your face heats up, and you cut yourself off.

“Affirmative.” He peeks at you, sly from the corner of his mask. “Rather proud of that one.”

“Do you know how much shit I’ve gotten about that? Why?” You ask, trying not to let the whine slip into the question.

“Why? It was bloody impressive.” He pauses. “And hot when —“ 

You sit up straight, cheeks pink, shove at him to stop that sentence from completing itself. “No, you fucking asshole, I meant why’d you start them?” 

“Oh.” The arm around your waist tightens, and when his big hand guides your face up towards his, the mask has been pulled away from his smirking mouth. “Because it stops those dickheads from chatting you up.”

You’re naturally flirtatious, and now the frantic avoidance from some of the others makes…alarming sense. There’s no place for bratty petulance at this realization, which is what you would be lobbing at the bastard if he wasn’t busy kissing the scowl from your lips.

the fact that I haven't seen anyone talk about Ghost's or König's stretch marks. Not the ones from the muscle building, but from their growth spurt. On their legs - knees and thighs and on their back. Hell, with the size of König, his whole back must be covered in those beautiful stretch marks. Now that gives me a lot of ideas...

Writing advice...

... About military things from a soldier :)

Pt.1 / ?: Guns

You wanna write a story with a militaristic setting, like CoD or R6S? And you wanna have action, but you've got no clue about guns and gunfights and don't know where to start?

Well, lucky for you or not I know what that feels like and I've also got the combat / real life experience to help ya out!

Feel free to hop in my askbox or dm's and ask questions. I'll gladly elaborate and do my best to answer in full and plenty.

Happy writing y'all! :)

So, first of all: Guns are heavy. As in multiple kilogramms heavy. A loaded rifle can easily weigh anywhere between 3 - 5kg. Handguns can be between 900gr - 2kg. The exact weight depends on the gun itself and wether it's loaded or not. A gun w a full magazine is obvs gonna weigh more than a gun without.

Second of all: Despite what you see in video games, you do not just pull the trigger and blast your whole magazine at the enemy. It takes seconds to empty a rifle but gunfights can last for hours - hence why soldiers are trained to count their shots and only shoot in salves.

Third of all: If a soldier ever gets to the point where they gotta pick up rifles found on the ground cause they're either outta ammo or lost theirs... They're probably fucked.

Fourth of all: Soldiers know their weapons. They know the exact type, the name, how to dis- and reassemble it in under a minute, gloves on and eyes closed. We know everything we could possibly know about our gun, down to the exact number of how much it weighs. And yes, we gotta take our gun apart and thoroughly clean it after every. Single. Use.

Fifth of all: Do not - and I repeat - do not shoot towards the sky. That bullet you just shot will come down somewhere (gravity n all) and no one can predict where and what damage it'll possibly do upon impact.

Rhaenyra x Daemon x gn reader

Summary : Rhaenyra and Daemon’s lover came home and they take care of them.

Tags: fluff

Warning : none / mistakes

For: @kpopchangedmylifesstuff

——————————————————————-

Rhaenyra and Daemon were waiting for their lover to come back to Dragonstone. The heir to the iron throne stayed in front of the tall window, looking at the angered water. She was playing with the fabric of her dress as she hoped to see her lover’s boat coming home. Their lover has been sent for a diplomatic mission for the Black’s cause. They were gone for a few weeks and no news came to Rhaenyra and Deamon’s ears about them.

Rhaenyra was afraid that something bad happened to them, especially when the Green’s second born son was roaming the seas and their first born was ruling the seven kingdoms.

“ They will arrive soon,” Daemon spoke calmly to calm her down.

“ I hope…” she whispered,” I miss them.”

She turned around to look at her husband with saddened eyes. He was sitting at the long table placed in the middle of the room, the rogue prince gave his wife a smile and with a hand movement he told her to come closer to him. He repeated softly : “ they will be here soon.”

——-

Their lover finally arrived a few hours later, clothes all wet, shivers running through their body caused by the sea’s cold water. Daemon and Rhaenyra’s dragons began roaring and flying over the castle, caraxes piercing screeches echoed below the gray sky. Daemon felt his dragon’s call throughout his whole body, sending shivers through his spine. Rhaenyra dashed through the castle as soon as she saw the boat coming to Shore : “ they’re here, they’re finally here !”

She called for her husband before running outside, below the dark sky and the rain. Rhaenyra held her dress and ran across the bridge. She tried to keep calm her own excitement, but couldn’t and a smile crossed her pretty face.

“ Rhaenyra,” she heard coming from the walls of rain. Her lover was standing on the bridge, looking at her with warmth. “ My love,” they dropped everything they were carrying to the ground and ran to her arms,” My love !”

She kissed their forehead repeatedly as softly as she could, Rhaenyra held their face with her hands and stroked their cheeks as she smiled with love. The princess whispered : “the days were long without you near me, my love.” She was happily crying, tears streaming on her already wet face as the rain poured down on the two.

“ It was a pain to awake without you and Daemon by my side, I regret leaving. I missed you.”

“ The children missed you, our husband too,” her embrace tightened. “ I missed you too.”

——————-

“Come,” Daemon said. “ The bath is ready.”

Daemon took care of undressing them, he unbuttoned their shirt, pulled down their pants and fixed their messy hair. The rogue prince stroked their cold back and kissed their neck as he hid their naked body against his strong chest.

“ You’re freezing,” he kissed their forehead. “ Let’s get you in the bath.”

He observed their body, looking for scars or signs of battles, but saw nothing alarming. He placed his hands on their hips and asked : “Did something happen during your your travels.”

“ Nothing much” they smiled at him while caressing his back. “I have good news for you and our Queen.”

“ Let’s keep those news for later, the good news is that you’re safe and not hurt,” he spoke gently and kissed their soft lips.

The prince picked their lover up in his arms, giving them soft praises and sweet words as he carefully put them in the warm bath. They sighed at the touch of the water on their cold skin. After Daemon placed his lover in the bathtub filled with warm water, he began cleaning their pretty face and stroking their body.

“ I love you,” he said after kissing them on their cheeks.

Rhaenyra arrived a few moments later and sat near the bathtub. She was wearing a soft nightgown and her white hair was tied into a single braid.

“ I’m happy to see you,” she kissed their forehead and stroked their hair.

They began taking care of their lover, together. She was brushing their hair carefully after washing them with her own hands. Unknotting every knot. She left soft kisses on the top of their head every now and then. Daemon cleaned their body, rubbing their belly and arms to make the dirt and dried blood disappear in the water. He took care of massaging their sore muscles.

They let their lover soak a little bit more in the bath as they talk to each other. Sweet words and names were exchanged between the three love birds. Rhaenyra was relieved, seeing her lover happy and well made her heart filled with joy. She couldn’t stop smiling at the view of her two partners talking and taking care of each other.

Hello! Trans male reader here so just a question + request so you do male reader stuff, and I was wanting to request possibly the boys specifically soap, könig and ghost (maybe gaz) their reactions of finding out the reader is trans aka maybe seeing the scars ? I do hope it's okay to request this

COD MW2— How they would react to you having top surgery (trans man reader)

Warning: use of terms describing fem! body parts (boobs, tits)

König:

- The two of you were training together when it happened and the practice fight between resulted in heavy sweating.

- Naturally, you took your shirt off during the break to cool down and König saw the scars on your chest.

- You asked him what he was looking at and he quickly turned his gaze to the side, not realizing he was just gawking at you.

- “Ah.. sorry. I was just.. ah.” He trailed off into quietness as he felt embarrassed.

- You only chuckled and told him you had top surgery, but he had no clue what that surgery was for.

- It took more explaining that you were a transgender man and that you had the boobie-be-gone surgery to make you feel more comfy in your skin.

- Obviously he was shocked because he didn’t know you were trans to begin with, so expect him to sheepishly ask questions about it— if you were alright with it of course.

- You had no problem talking to him about it since you considered him a good friend, and you trusted him to not make fun of you or shame you.

- König is very supportive of you and he constantly mentions to you how courageous and strong you are. You’re very lucky to have someone like him by your side.

- This man doesn’t have a mean bone in his body when it comes to things like gender and sexuality. Be who you are and he’s happy for you.

- Oh, but if someone decides to be transphobic to you? This man can get very angry, and reassure you afterwards that you’re a man no matter what.

Ghost:

- He’s watching you and the other privates going through training when it happened. Everyone is crawling under barbed wire in the field and it got very muddy.

- After training in the dirt, you peel off your shirt and grab your clean one that’s next to the benches. That’s when Ghost eyes the scars on your chest.

- He doesn’t judge. He has plenty of scars himself, but yours are different. They’re surgical.

- He doesn’t want to pry because he doesn’t actually care, it was simple curiosity.

- You catch him looking at you and you smile.

- “Top surgery. Didn’t like my tits too much so I had ‘em chopped off.”

- He’s not an easy man to surprise, but the way you were so nonchalant about it took him back a little.

- Like König, this man didn’t expect you to be trans but he wasn’t going to delve into your origin story.

- This man simply does not care for those things, he only cared about making sure the people here were trained properly so they don’t die.

- Ah, but he was caught staring. Better play it cool.

- “Get back to training, private. You got another hour on the field.” “Yes, lieutenant.”

- Doesn’t care about what gender or sexuality you are either, he has more important things on his mind.

- He did admire you a little though, that you have the balls to pursue what makes you happy and comfortable with yourself. Good on you, private.

Soap:

- Soap was hitting the showers after some hard training with Ghost and desperately needed to clean the sweat and dirt off.

- But he heard one of the shower heads on and someone washing up. So he wouldn’t be alone then. That’s fine.

- He did what he needed in the shower and when he came out, he saw you looking in the mirror shaving.

- Soap also noticed the scars on your chest when he was looking at your face in the mirror.

- You see him looking at you and you smirk, putting the razor down on the countertop.

- “You wanna know how I got these scars, sergeant?”

- Was that a goddamn joker reference? He had to chuckle at that.

- “Had my boobs hacked off a year ago. Gender affirming surgery if you wanna get technical.”

- Now he was shocked. And confused. Gender affirming? Wait, which gender?

- “So.. you’re a..?” “A man, sergeant.” “.. I knew that.”

- You both share a laugh and joke about it with each other. He was a silly ‘lil guy.

- “I gotta say, your chest looks way better than mine.” He says as he sneaks glances between yours and his. “You gotta tell me your surgeon.”

- “I’ll give you his number, so long as you give me yours.” Damn, you’re a smooth talker too? He might just fall in love.

- “I’ll take your word for it, private.”

_________________

I genuinely believe our boys do not give a flying fadoodle about gender or sexuality. You’re on the battlefield for gods sake who needs to know about stuff like that.

Also SORRY for my delay in getting to requests and other fics. I do have plenty that are in the works but this was the easiest to write down quickly enough because I feel bad for the lack of content.

people portraying ghost as an abusive, cold-hearted and emotionless person is actually so sad... did we even play the same game? he obviously cares about soap and his other teammates

at this point just say y'all don't understand traumatized people. having trauma doesn't always make a person act horrible towards others, ghost is just very blunt and probably has issues with trusting people

but still, he's actually really nice to soap, throughout the campaign he's making lots of jokes and calling him "johnny". only he calls him that. also he literally put his military career on hold to help his brother quit drugs, even though he was bullied by him when they were kids

do you really think that same man would let himself treat others like shit when he spent his whole childhood being abused? he would hate himself if he did that, because then he would be just as horrible as his father

so for the love of god stop acting like he's some monster that hates everyone around him 💀 yeah, it might take him a while to warm up to people but that's expected considering what he went through

[olivefeuillu]

Heey babes 💜 could you possibly maybe write cis or ftm reader with poly ghost and soap 🥺.

Poly Ghoap with a trans male reader

First of all, T4T

But who knows ig

I can imagine you being scared to come out to them CUZ LIKE ME TOO

Ghost might have the hardest time understanding and might have some difficulties, but he does know that it's fine if he messes up at first even tho he’s feels so bad for messing up

Confused but he's got the spirit

When you tell them you're trans, they both take time to read as much about trans experiences and they ask about your own experince to learn how to support you better

"So it's like distress because your body doesn't look or feel right?"

They honetsly don't see you as their "trans" boyfrind, you're just you, you're their boyfriend

Soap will have trust in you that you bind safely

Ghost on the other hand...

No one knows how long you might've been binding, so he asks you like every hour 'cause he doesn't want you to be in pain and have back/chest problems

When you're feeling dysphoric then they make you stay inside with them and watch movies while cuddling

Other than that, movie night every saturday

Both of them call you their boyfriend even if no one asked

Down to be the little spoon, which might give some people gender euphoria

If either of them are scared of needles they will stay as far as possible when you're taking your shots

But Ghost does always ask if you need help or have you remembered to take it

When you're gonna get top/bottom surgery, but feel nervous about it then Soap is right there hyping you up

Oh man, they are both not chill with people who just casually misgender or deadname you

Seeing you lose your smile is enough for them to jump the person

The DEATH GLARES Ghost will send them

They just love you so much y'know

[olivefeuillu]

the uncanny valley is a concept that deals with the perception of not-quite-human entities by humans. the human brain feels comfortable identifying non-human beings up to a definable point, but as soon as it falls on the line of having human qualities but not being human, it makes people uncomfortable.
