i like reading your convenient lists, any ideas on what the formers favorite foods would be?

Optimus- Soup. He's not picky about what kind, he just likes how soothing the warmth is.

Ratchet- Salad. It's healthy and tastes good. If he's feeling mischievous, he'll spice it up with some croutons or dressing.

Bumblebee- Pizza! He firmly believes that pineapple belongs on pizza, which leads to many arguments between him and Bulkhead.

Arcee- Egg waffles were a special treat of her childhood that she remembers fondly.

Bulkhead- Macaroni and cheese. He wants to learn how to make it properly at some point, but he settles for the Kraft kind.

Megatron- Fruit. As a part of the lower class miners and gladiators, he never received fresh food of any kind. He'll never forget the wonder he felt at first tasting a fresh apple.

Starscream- Chocolate. Literally anything with chocolate. He has been deprived for too long. Put a piece of chocolate cake in front of him and it will be gone in seconds.

Knock Out- Tteokbokki (or rice cakes) were a childhood favorite of Knock Out's, so it is his primary comfort food.

Breakdown- He loves a good, layered sandwich. You know the kind of sandwiches Scooby and Shaggy make? Yeah.

Soundwave- Doesn't think much about food, but has fond memories of homemade tamales.

Shockwave- He doesn't focus on the taste of food so much as how nutritious it is (that being said, he actually does enjoy vegetables the most).

Bonus:

Skyfire- Mashed potatoes. It's just such a comforting food. Sadly, he and Scream are terrible at cooking, so packaged ramen is his main diet.

Rumble and Frenzy- MCDONALD'S! Like most kids their age, they just want some chicken nuggets and a toy.

Wildbreak- He enjoys the instant noodles his dad cooks up for him most every week, especially since Knock Out customizes it with eggs and kimchi or whatever else they have around that looks good.

is rid2015 worth the watch? I never watched it cause I disliked Starscream's new design, but lately I've been thinking of giving the show a chance

It depends how desperate you are. When it’s fandom dry season I tend to search the bottom of the bottom for new input. What motivated me, was seeing if they would pick up any TFP loose ends and of course Fracture. (He really looks like Starscream’s and Megatron’s child, haha! The same way Wildbreak could be Knock Out’s and Breakdown’s spawn. Ah, and Kickback. Kickback looks like Starscream had a fling with an Insecticon, rofl.)

Okay, so this series is aimed at a younger and therefore considered dumber audience. The human characters pretty much strangle suspension of disbelief to death. In order to keep the robots in disguise, the kid and his dad put on the cheapest cartoon disguises and easily fool bystanders, security, the police, people from the government... It’s like watching zombies. When kid and pop put on their show, every human just casually walks away. Remember in TFP where they actually had to deal with leery people and even had to admit the truth sometimes because people aren’t stupid in this universe? Not in RiD.

The Autobots themselves have their moments, but their character development gets rewound by the end of each episode, which can get quite frustrating since they tend to repeat their mistakes over and over and learn their lessons over and over again.

The Decepticons are now nearly all animals or anthro animals which transform into vehicles and everyone has a specific character trait about them. They aren’t really a faction anymore, they just follow the villain of the day format and every single one has their own motivation. The war is over after all. Also if your are good, you are an Autobot, if you are bad, you are a Decepticon. Autobots who do wrong are either Decepticons in disguise or changed “faction”. There are some recurring characters, but they are pretty bland. As I said, every Decepticon has a trait and that is exploited to the limit. Don’t ask for any character development here either.

The robots overall are pretty small. Maybe two times an adult human. There is a scene where Sideswipe gets attacked by a bear. A bear!

About TFP loose ends: Don’t expect anything. The lore doesn’t fit left and right and Starscream’s story is so asinine, I consider it non-canon. Starscream is also just in there for a few episodes. Like, watch them and be done with it. There is an Airachnid character model walking by for two seconds. They do nothing with it. Bulkhead and Ratchet show up for one or two episodes. But they feel like strangers. Optimus Prime gets revived. Of course. I didn’t like him in TFP and I learned to hate him in RiD. He has such a stick in his aft, it’s not funny. I only liked Bumble Bee more because I like seeing him as a more mature leader and not as a mute toddler scout. Soundwave has at first his cool TFP design, but later he gets a beefed up body for some reason (yuck!). Soundwave also talks a lot then and that’s actually cool because I like his voice. :3 Megatron never shows up again. Neither does Shockwave, or Arcee, Smokescreen...

Well, I could get on and on... it’s nothing I would rewatch. Some people like it more than TFP for some reason. I could never like it more for the ugly, eye-torturing artstyle alone. It’s so overly bright and shiny and sometimes you can’t make out the anatomy properly. It’s like the lost city R’lyeh with angles and corners the eye can’t make sense of.

So, if you ask me, it’s definitely not worth the watch.

ALL OF EM FOR INDUSTRIAL 👏

How many children does your character have? How many would they ideally WANT?The good boi has split spark twins right now, but I could see Industrial wanting more sometime in the future!

How did the children become a part of the family? Were they born into it? Adopted? Somehow else? Talk about the journey! :DIndustrial became sparked through @thejapanesemapletree oc Lightningstrike! Two smol dancers learning to love themselves through the other. The first time Industrial could have been sparked was avoided for fear of them being inexperienced, but this time was planned. They just didn’t expect it to happen so fast. The spark split not long into conception, and it became obvious Industrial was carryin for two, lol.

What kind of a parent is the character? Does their own idea match that? Do they think they are a good parent? What are some of their insecurities as a parent? How about their partner?Industrial tries his best, and is very empathetic and sweet to his kids. He supports them in everything that they do, and tries not to blame himself for the problems they have. Industrial is mostly afraid that since his girls do such outlandish things, they might get hurt. Lightningstrike adores them as well, and is mostly stressed by shenanigans.

What are the meanings behind the children’s names, if they DO have meanings? Were they named after someone?Thunderclap was the first to emerge, and her name is a play on her coder’s. Dreamscape was second, and was named to have big dreams. Industrial hoped that with strong names, his girls would become confident and strong as well. One of them did, lol. Dreamscape learns to get over her shyness in the future.

What do the children call their parents?Industrial is Carrier, and Lightningstrike is coder!

Talk about the children! What do they look like? What are their personalities like?Dreamscape and Thunderclap looked identical up until they really started to part ways with their career. Sleek black paint like their carrier, and rainbow biolights and glowy bits adorn their armor- as well as their carrier’s trademark helm ears. Their alts are mopeds tho(Dreamscape upgrades to a motorcycle later), and Dreamscape get’s yellow racing stripes in the future. Thunderclap is an artist, and ends up leaving the paint splatters she gets on her armor, giving her a very *Artsy* look.Dreamscape is super shy, and has a constant stutter. She seems very sweet and kind, but ends up being a daredevil. Wants to ramp and race like Coder once wanted to. Thunderclap is mouthy and huffy. She acts aloof and unkind, and like she doesn’t care, but she actually does. Since Dreamscape favors Lightningstrike, she favors Industrial, and often get’s mouthy with Lightningstrike. Only for lack of understanding. Their relationship changes as she gets older and it becomes apparent that she’s colorblind, and that the colors of her painting’s were not intentionally done with those tones.

The children’s first words?Dreamscape: “C-c-coder!”Thunderclap: “… Fool.”

What are some of the character’s favorite memories from their kids’ childhoods?Lightningstrike was very proud the day Dreamscape told him she wanted to ramp things. Proud and terrified. It’s not a young memory, but Industrial remembers the day Lightningstrike and Thunderclap’s relationship finally melded. He holds it dear to his spark.

What are some of the character’s favorite things to do with their children?Industrial’s is dance! Lightningstrike’s is race or draw(both kids respectively. He did used to be an artist)

What about the CHILDREN’S favorite things to do with their parents? :D This isn’t necessarily the same thing!Dreamscape really enjoys it when Lightningstrike takes her to Velocitron! Once everyone stops staring at her, she really enjoys watching everyone race!Thunderclap likes to go to art galleries, and loves it even more when her parents come along. Not that she WANTS you here! Primus Coder, you’re so clingy!!!

What’s playtime like? What kind of games does the character tend to play with the children? Are they GOOD at it? :DTag was a big one as kids(Dreamscape always won), but Thunderclap has an appreciation for cardgames, and Industrial may not be very good, but he always manages to rope everyone into playing.

Does the character (or their partner, or BOTH) have some mutual hobbies or pastimes with the children that aren’t strictly playing? Like some crafts or sports that they share and have fun with?As aforementioned, racing and art. Dancing is also one, but Lightningstrike and Industrial usually just dance with each other. Industrial can’t race because he’s a turntable. lol

Does the character have any meaningful items they pass on to their children? Like an old toy, or a piece of jewelry, or some other family heirloom?Not really.

What are some of the skills or things the character teaches to their children? Some family traditions, or particularly important life lessons? How about their partner?Well, the whole reason Dreamscape admits she wants to do daredevily things is because Lightningstrike was bragging about how when he was younger, he would have loved to ramp that gap. No sir! Not anymore! He has his gorls to worr- Oh. You want to do that?Industrial tries to teach his kids to be confident in their abilities, and to not rely on others for justification. He himself used to be so dependent on that that it wasn’t healthy. He doesn’t want that for his gorls.

Is there a toy/book/game the character is almost as excited about as the child (or even MORE so than the child? :D)Maybe cards? Industrial always learns so much!

Sleep time! Talk about the sleeping arrangements and rituals of the family through the years!Industrial has a nest of pillows on his berth, and Lightningstrike has become used to nesting with his nightlight love. Them biolight’s dim and brighten with Industrial’s sparkbeat lol. But that comforts Lightningstrike.Thunderclap insists that her and her sister sleep apart, but they usually end up in the same bed, lol.

Talk about what happens when a child gets sick.NYOOM TO FAIRWAY. PANIC!!!

Talk about a time when the children did or said something that was both hilarious and definitely embarrassing for the parents!One time, at a Velocitronian event, Thunderclap was watching a bots poor attempts at picking up her coder, and she just pointed at the bot and said, “Ah. You don’t understand ‘no’?” Industrial was mortified and proud.

Talk about a time the children scared their parents.Dreamscape ramped off of something she wasn’t supposed to and got stuck up high on a pole. Lightningstrike was using Mica(She’s a microphone) to tell the poor little thing everything would be alright, but secretly, he was terrified.

Talk about a time the children made their parents very proud.Thunderclap goes through a phase after learning she’s colorblind where she tries to use the “right” colors to pain, and hates it. But, as an artist, and for her livelihood, she can’t be picky. Industrial and Dreamscape try to tell her that if she doesn’t enjoy it, she shouldn’t do it, but it takes a huge fight with Lightningstrike for Thunderclap to realize how much he understands, and that she shouldn’t change her art just because it’s not “correct” to other people. Lightningstrike and co were very proud of her when she started painting the way she loved again.

Talk about a time when the children got into trouble!Dreamscape is a stage fright ornery. She wants to race. She wants to go fast! Problem is, she’s a two wheeler. Faking her parents signature, she goes to Knockout and has him do an engine overclock, as well as frame re haul to change her altmode to something faster. Despite knowing the note is fake, he does it anyway, and tells her not to expect him to protect her from her creators lol. When she get’s home, Thunderclap knows immediately what she’s done, and tattles because she’s afraid of Dreamscape doing things that could hurt her. In turn, this spoops Lightningstrike, because when he heard that Dreamscape had surgery, he thought that maybe she had been removing parts. She hadn’t, but she still got in double trouble, lol.

What kind of people do the children grow up to be? What do they do?Thunderclap is an artist who uses her platform to bring to light frame abuse/racism, as well as other social issues on cybertron. Dreamscape becomes a stunt bike and racer! Nyoomin of with Wildbreak and the Stunticon’s for a while!

Snapshot! Describe a scene or a full day from the family’s life. It could be anything from a normal daily routine, or some special day and what happened that day. ^u^Dreamscape sitting as still as she can while Thunderclap uses her as a model for a new piece, avoiding Industrial’s questions and yelling at Lightningstrike for trying to critique.

Has having children changed the character? How?Industrial has become more confident in himself since having the twins, and the insults he faces from Velocitronian press rolls off him more easily now. They’re his precios gorls, and nothing can dampen his mood.

Wildcard! Share at least three of your favorite headcanons about the character and their children!Industrial has glass over his spark, so everyone can see the new sparks pulsing there when they first form. It’s not obvious they’re split because Dreamscape was hiding behind her sister, lol.Dreamscape overcomes her stage fright the more she races, but doesn’t lose her stutter. Eventually, she comes back to Velocitron, and shows the bots there exactly what a two wheeler is capable of.Thunderclap has a habit of just plopping herself down in her coders lap after the two’s relationship mend. Just sits there and listens to his sparkbeat, not saying anything. Lightningstrike is too afraid if he says something, she’ll leave. lol
