Here is the storyboard for part 3 of the Transformers Earthspark Season 1 finale to "The Touch" by Stan Bush!
The moment I saw this post, I just had to add in the song! (I would have reblogged the original post with the video, but alas, Tumblr.) Credit for this video goes to @oldswifty , I just edited the song in.
BIG EARTHSPARK SPOILERS!!
I cut the first minute or so out since there's no other audio, so be sure to check out the link above for the whole thing! I wasn't sure when the song would end, so I just let it run for the rest of the video.
I needed to tell you that tiny shorts Cody has taken over my brain. I'm utterly obsessed
Ahhhhh hi, yes, hello!!!! Same same same!!! I was so delighted to receive this ask and I am so glad you share my obsession!!
If you're interested, I do have some critical background:
- They're Marshall Commander shorts. They say Marshall Commander across the ass.
- Bly, in possession of a discretionary fund ""for trooper morale,"" got them as a gag gift for each of his batchmates.*
- Cody (unfuckwithable) wears them unironically, unselfconsciously, daily, for his morning workout (....on the days he gets a morning workout.)
- It is widely understood that Cody is at his best and most approachable at this time. In the moments between his cooldown and hitting the sonics, Cody is in possession of serenity, mercy, benevolence. He's in a good mood.
- This is the time to come to him with. Just. The most aggravating issues. No matter how nightmarish the fuckup, Marshall Commander Shorts Cody can see the shape of the solution. No crisis will rattle his calm.
- Inevitably, someone shares this with Obi-Wan. Though not, perhaps, the full context.
- I think you know how this ends.
- Obi-Wan just isn't prepared, I think. The first time he sees the Marshall Commander Shorts. I think Cody is flushed and shirtless, thighs out, drinking his water, toweling off his face. I think he sees Obi-Wan and smiles. I think Cody so rarely smiles. It's like 💀💀 a dream. It's like he's dreaming.
Pin journey update! @xannerz and I were super happy with the response towards the Cass flame design I posted earlier, and we're thinking that it would actually be the best pin for our first project! With that said, here are some other designs we've also been playing around with- perhaps ones to revisit or follow up on in the future. ✨
The hand/moonstone design is the simplest, but it might be my favorite.
the funny thing about loneliness is that it feeds itself. that if you’re rejected and ridiculed and isolated by your peers you start to shut yourself off so much that you have a hard time connecting even when you want to. that it starts by being disliked but turns you into the person that dislikes. that it makes it hard to be open and genuine and affectionate with anyone and that prevents you from making future bonds. it’s uncomfortable to even try to do the things you need to do to make friends.
but sometimes it just takes one person to break that. and that’s who alya was for marinette and that’s who marinette was for toxinelle. because you need someone to like you so much that they can teach you how to do it again. that they can make you feel safe liking them too, even if you didn’t at first. and i think it’s beautiful that alya taught marinette so much that marinette was able to teach even herself 🥺
ragged breaths pour out of you as you scrub your hands clean of the crimson liquid which stains your hands and your very soul. it was brutal and beautiful—the colour and how the red strands swirled around as it united before falling down the sink pipe.
you blink and clench your hands. the very hands which so effortlessly carved up the heart from inside the man laying on your rough ‘operating table’. you are terrible, yes. there was no other word to describe you. a vigilante, maybe? but did it even matter when there is a part of you which feels the thrill of the killings and torture that you so cunningly come up with no mercy?
no, actually, there are other words to describe you. heartless, being one of them. the irony of that when you quite literally removed someone’s heart recently is not lost on you.
rotten. sadistic. torturous. depraved. murderer.
it was how you revelled in the pain you caused others; how you can’t stop the excitement spreading across your body when you see the utter terror in their eyes; how you sometimes let them have a moment of freedom, just to tear it all away at once and see as hopelessness encompasses every cell of their body. the scalpel that you used in carving the man’s heart probably possessed more sympathy than you did.
you are not the same, the voice taunts you. you are not the same person who cried over the dead raven for night’s on end. you can’t even recognise yourself. you are twisted and depraved and oh-so sick in the head. you are broken in ways you don’t even know.
you try to deny it at first, try to resist with every shaky breath that you do this for the greater good. but you know, deep down, you know that this is what you are: a monster masquerading as a human. you have as much heart as the corpse on your operating table with the empty chest.
you try to find some semblance of yourself on the broken pieces of the vanity mirror scattered around you. but you can truly see your twisted visage on the abnormal reflections. it was as if a sculptor had chipped away at you to add all the cruelty of the world and none of its gentleness.
you were made of jagged edges and sharp thorns. made to admire, not to love.
my recent playthrough i kept feeling like coffee was being mentioned Suspiciously often:
Evrart Claire - "We're not gonna give nothing. We're gonna *take* Terminal B away from them: the roads, the gates, the containers, that big crane... even the damn coffee maker. We're gonna take all of it for the people -- and *fuck* Wild Pines."
Klaasje (Miss Oranje Disco Dancer) - "Why not? I'll be here until 23.00, drinking coffee most likely..."
Rhetoric - The acrid smell of failure...
Electrochemistry - No, that's just slightly burnt coffee. A smell you would recognise anywhere.
Echo Maker - "I would commit war crimes for some real Saramirizian coffee."
and so on. so i check fayde and find this interaction telling you not everything is Something. fine i get it!!
