Snippet from you make me brave, a Longbee (Longshot x Smellerbee) work I'm working on based on the song "Ruin" by The Amazing Devil. This is more just proof that I am, in fact, still writing actual things still and not just posting stuff I wrote a year or more ago.
For the first time she can remember…her world is peaceful. One of the kids flashes down a zipline, yelling crazily, and she can hear Pipsqueak’s laughter somewhere in the distance. She kicks her legs back and forth, staring into the trees below her. They’re so high up, higher than she’s ever been before, and she can’t help but look down. Longshot nudges her, and for a split second she thinks she’s about to go down, her stomach lurching - and then Smellerbee catches herself. She glares up at him - he just raises his eyebrows, lip tilting up as he nods downward. Dare you to jump, he’s saying. (She’s never been quite sure how she knew what he was saying, without needing words. But she was.) Smellerbee snorts.” Jackass. You jump. With your shoulders you could probably fly.” Longshot glances down - then immediately shakes his head. She snorts, punches his shoulder - and as she meets his eyes, feels her cheeks flush, and she ducks her head. (There’s no way he didn’t see it. But does she care anymore?) Smellerbee takes a deep breath - then stiffens, as Longshot’s arm slowly settles around her back. She glances up at him; his face is just as red as she imagines hers to be. She takes a breath, and tilts her head over onto his shoulder, and for a moment, just for a moment, it’s like the world stops. And everything’s all right. (They’ve always been close, since the moment he tried to steal her dinner and she’d put his face into the dirt, almost four years ago. But now they’re attached. Funny how that worked out. They beat the crap out of each other, and here they are.) (If she could spend the rest of her life like this…well. Smellerbee wouldn’t mind that at all.)

Did a collab with the wonderful n talented @the-good-ol-art-corner
they did the sketch and of course we had to go with some adorable shockbee! I thought at first maybe this was a picture Longarm had saved on his computer but i now chose to believe Wasp emailed it over as blackmail, that or to bully them... Either way I think this came out wonderfully <3

Could I mayhaps get "bonfire" from the summer bingo for Longbee or Taang? 👉👈
Bonfire - Longbee (Smellershot)
Smellerbee watched as he meticulously built the wood logs up and got a small flame roaring into a blazing fire in no time. Longshot was always so good at those things.
He came and sat next to her—too close. Their thighs brushed against each other and she felt a blush rising in her cheeks. This thing between them…it was so new, so fragile. She was scared to move too quick, or grab it too harshly, fearing that it would be like wind. Felt but never caught fully.
They said nothing, staring into the fire. With them, silence was comfortable. But tonight there was a tension in the air, and she couldn’t decide if she liked it or not. It was like she was holding her breath.
One small move was all it took.
Longshot slowly reached over and took her hand.
Bee felt her pulse spike, excitement running through her veins as she realized that he felt this too. It wasn’t just her.
She said nothing though, only threading her fingers through his and squeezing tighter in answer of his silent question.
Some things didn’t need to be spoken aloud.

For my buddy @krastbannert‘s birthday I wrote a small (very small!) Smellershot snippet inspired by this piece of art.
Happy Birthday, my friend! (It’s a little angsty...but I thought you might appreciate that. 😅)
---
---
They’d made it, Smellerbee thought, as the sound of lapping water finally began to overtake the deafening roar in her ears. But she couldn’t recall how. One moment, they’d been standing guard at the bottom of Lake Laogai, and the next, they were gasping for breath at its surface. Well, all except for…
Her chest hurt. It ached, and burned, but she wasn’t sure if it was from how fast her heart was beating (how fast could a heart beat, anyway?), or if it was from the crushing pressure at the bottom of the lake (is this what cracked ribs felt like? is this what Jet…?)
She looked down when Longshot reached out one shaking hand to cup her jaw. His calloused thumb caught and dragged in the cakey red paint on her cheekbones, and she knew there would be streaks down her face, trails of Longshot’s ragged touch. Would it look like she’d been crying blood? Crying tears didn’t feel like nearly enough…
Longshot gazed up at her from where he was sprawled along the bank. He’d lost his hat, and his hair tie. He’d probably also lost his quiver and his bow. It felt stupid to notice. Those things…they were his — they were him — but in the grand scheme, they were also insignificant. They’d already lost so much…
Longshot’s hand had frozen on her face. His fingers, his eyes…his whole body still but for the stuttered rise and fall of his chest. They’d always been able to speak without words, but this time, the silence between them was empty, hollow. There was nothing left to say.
“Shot—” she choked out, because the silence — this silence — was going to swallow her whole. But her voice was as brittle as she felt, and it crumbled under the weight of her anguish.
He lifted his head and pinched his eyebrows together, as if to say, “I know…I know…” And then a moment later he was pulling her towards him. Her body hinged forward at the waist without her realizing why he was beckoning, her trust in him intrinsic. His fingers flexed, so slight she barely felt it, and she saw his jaw tighten, and his brows raise. But before she could decipher, before she could translate, his lips were on hers.

For the NSFW alphabet, how about L, R, or V (pick your favorite of the three, or just one you haven't answered yet) for Smellerbee and Longshot?
L = Location (Favourite places to do the do)
Pre-end of the war, any place they can get some privacy that's away from the rest of the Freedom Fighters. Doesn't really matter where, although they are partial to areas near waterfalls. Many times they just end up using the nearest tree.
Once they have their own, indoor place, they like the bed. It's nice and soft, and doesn't scratch either of them. Countertops get used a lot, too (they're careful to make sure it's thoroughly cleaned afterwards).
R = Risk (Are they game to experiment, do they take risks, etc.)
Longshot is pretty much down for anything. He's much more measured about the risk, but he enjoys trying new things, especially if it makes Bee happy.
Smellerbee, though - she is all about risk. 'Go big or go home', basically. She'll try most things just about anywhere - although the treetop incident is something she doesn't want to repeat, so she avoids doing the hanky panky in extremely high places.
V = Volume (How loud they are, what sounds they make)
Smellerbee, probably unsurprising, is loud and brash. If she's feeling good, she's going to let her partner know, and she's going to her entire, extremely expansive vocabulary to do it. She can be quiet - she got a lot of practice from years of living in crowded areas, from Gaipan to Ba Sing Se and beyond - she just prefers not to be. If she has to be quiet, she normally has something over or in her mouth.
Longshot is vocal, just quiet. He's perfectly capable of being loud, he's just...not a loud guy. He prefers actions to words/noises, as always, so he's gotten good at being expressive with hands, hips, mouth, etc. Smellerbee, however, has taken that as a cue to try and get him to break.
She succeeds. Rather often.

Asks came from this ask game.

bee seems like the type to be tricked into a date, that can be shock or blitz if ya like. maybe prowl too but he doesn't seem like he'd do that and you already made a fic similar to it :p
Hahah yeah! That reminds me of a BlitzBee fic i read about Bee being taken hostage on a "date" with Blitz.
I had an idea similar to this about ShockBee... or LongBee? Either way-
I imagine Bee and Longarm are like the best buddies but in a different way; Longarm loves to mess around with Bee, he has to be careful to not slip while on the job, he retains his stoic and serious attitude when someone's around but the moment he's alone with Bee and possibly Bulkhead his personality takes a nearly 180 degree turn. It's especially fun when he's all alone with Bee and he can say stuff no one will judge him for, stuff that he only wants Bee to hear.
I imagine he visits Team Prime on Earth at least once a month to hang out with Bee and Bulk and possibly get some datawork and reports exchanged. Whenever he visits he always brings something for Bee and Bulk to enjoy, which is most often food and similar.
One time however he brought tickets to the Grand Prix of Cybertron for himself and Bee to go to. He said the tickets sold out so fast that he only managed to grab the last, which might have been somewhat true but he really wanted to spend some time alone with Bee. He remembered the scout tell him that he wished to go see it one day back when they were in boot camp. So he used his Prime privileges and got 2 VIP tickets.
Either way Bulkhead didn't mind not going, he wasn't a fan of big events like that anyway. Bee was so hyped about it he would not shut up, literally... and he had less that 20 hours to pack up cuz they were leaving tomorrow morning.
The Grand Prix usually lasts for 3 cycles, which is about the same time as Earth's week. And so, everyone bid their temporary goodbyes, Sari defo "threatened" Longarm to take care of Bee for her, she was also jealous that she couldn't go and see it too. I imagine Jazz was a temporary fill-in for the gap in the team.
So they set off and arrived on Cybertron- damn, it hasn't changed a bit from when Bee last saw it. Still, it felt like he was on a completely new planet he's never been to.
Longarm had a reservation in a hotel close to the stadium, they had one room with 2 berths and attached washroom. Bee had a tough time deciding what to pack or not- it came down to him packing only essentials cuz Longarm told him they'll get stuff on Cybertron too.
The first cycle arrived, they went to the stadium earlier and took the seats in the VIP lounge with other bots as the opening of the event played out. After the first competitions were done Bee and Longarm went to wander around the city- but before that they bumped into a group of the other 'bots Longarm knew. Other Primes and high-ranking autobots, even some Elite Guard members. Bee met a lot of new people.
So they went to wander around, Bee took a lot of pictures to show his team on Earth. After buying few stuff for themselves from other shops, they ended up in a souvenir shop, Bee wanted to buy gifts for the others- everything was themed after the Grand Prix: he got special fuel-cube (mug) for Ratchet, a planner for Optimus, some picturesque post cards for Bulkhead, a stadium statuette for Prowl- the building itself kinda looked like a tree and a back-window decor for Sari, although for her it would be a necklace with a very cool galaxy-themed pendant. He picked for himself and Longarm a little holo-pics of the Grad Prix logo that slowly spun. Bee was about to pay when he realized that yes, he is kinda rich- but in human money. He didn't have any credits to his name on Cybertron. There was this short awkward moment between the cashier and him before Longarm paid for the stuff. Bee felt so bad but Longarm said he didn't mind spending his savings on Bee.
Another cycle rolled by and more competitions were held. Longarm decided to take Bee to some restaurants so they went and had a full-blown spa. Bee has never felt so relaxed. (and yes, he did quote the "2 bros chilling in a hot tub" meme, Longarm was kinda confused but brushed it off when Bee said it was a human joke)
At the end of the solar cycle they ended up in a high-end bar, Bee and Longarm got drinks and they had a very good time. There was karaoke event happening and in a moment of confidence and influence of high grade he decided to participate. He sang "Celestial" by Ed Sheeran and while the music on Cybertron was different from Earth's the audience enjoyed the show nonetheless. Little did Longarm know that the song was dedicated to him...
After they went back to their shared hubsuite, Longarm woke up in the middle of the lunar cycle. Bee was missing from his berth, it didn't take long before he found him though. He was sitting on the balcony with his headphones, looking at the few stars that shone on the polluted sky. If he listened closely he would heard faint Earth music coming from the headphones that were connected to the robot-sized mp3 player.
"Why are you out here?" Longarm asked as he sat down next to Bee.
"Oh- sorry. I didn't meant to wake you up." Bee smiled apologetically and took off his headphones. "Are you okay?"
"Yeah, I'm fine. Just can't recharge." Bee answered. "Well, if you can't recharge then I can't either." Something was clearly bothering Bee, Longarm wasn't gonna leave him alone with it. "Something's bothering you, I can see."
"It's nothing." Bee only said, a hint of sorrow in his voice that Longarm didn't miss. "If it's making you not want to recharge then it's not nothing... c'mon, you know you can tell me."
After a short hesitation Bee finally told him. "I miss Earth."
"Oh." Longarm was surprised, he didn't expect this to be the reason Bee was sad.
"Yeah... I mean, Cybertron's cool and all- it's where I come from. But Earth is something different. There's so much amazing stuff there; fun activities, new cultures, impressive structures and way more... When I'm on Earth I feel like I can really be myself and not be judged for it... Earth is my real home." Bee explained, he focused his gaze up on the sky as he spoke, one could think he was trying to see said planet in there, even if it was galaxies away.
They chatted for a bit, somehow they ended up cuddling on the balcony watching the sky before going back in to recharge.
The final cycle of the Grand Prix rolled in and the final competition was a big race. Bee was the most excited for this part, he loved racing himself, he kind of wished he could participate in it.
It was amazing, the thrill was unmatchable. Once the winner emerged, Longarm took Bee to take pictures with the competitors- they were all famous in some way, the winner was actually a racer for a living. Bee had the best selfie with her and Longarm.
There was a short afterparty for the Grand Prix, Bee and Longarm stayed for a bit before leaving. They took a longer route back thru one of the less active part of the city, it was surprising but Cybertron actually had its own version of parks with statues and twisty structures that were supposed to mimic vegetation. There was also a makeshift river going thru the one they walked in right now.
They talked, Bee said how happy he was to be here and spend time with Longarm. Longarm was also happy to hang out with Bee... a step closer towards Longarm, a glance a little too long at Bee- the scout almost tripped and nearly fell because of some stray metal rod, but Longarm caught him... and so they found themselves walking back to their rented hubsuite servo in servo. Right before Bee had to get in a rented ship to take him back to Earth, Longarm gave him one more thing- a little crystal that seemed to have all the colors in the world in it. Bee almost felt unworhty of such gift but the way Longarm spoke to him about it and why he got it for him made him feel grateful to know such generous bot like Longarm.
When Bee came back to the Earth base it was kind of a mess- Sari coaxed the others into throwing a small welcome back party for Bee and somehow the decor ended up catching on fire... they made even more of a mess while trying to put it out. Yeah, Bee could not have been laughing harder.
He helped them clean up, after that he gave them the souvenirs and showed pictures- which might have been a mistake cuz among the pictures there was a video of him drunkenly singing at a bar. Not that is was bad, he was an amazing singer- it's just he didn't know Longarm even recorded this... The others didn't even tease him cuz they were so impressed he could sing that good.
This is the only thing I could think of when you said "tricked into a date". I suppose it's more of a "secretly a date that turned into an actual date".
Now hold on cuz there is a continuation to this!
After the whole deal with Longarm and Bee going on Grand Prix, Bee has found himself looking at the little crystal he got more than he expected. Whenever he did that there was a weird feeling in his Spark and an image of Longarm giving it to him. I imagine It was late autumn when they left for Grand Prix so Christmas wasn't far off.
Longarm did visit few days before the holiday and unknown to everyone, he left his own gift in the secret stash of gifts Bee prepared for everyone. When the time came and everyone got their gifts Sari pointed at the additional one, it was adressed to Bee from Longarm.
It was a sturdy but small case with some engravings. When Bee opened it he was met with a beautiful golden crown- it was subtle in design but very elegant with crystals that matched his optics and made his horns seem longer. It wasn't just any crown- it was the very same crown Bee saw on a display of a very pricy accessory shop when he and Longarm were wandering around the city. He was so enchanted with it... he never would have guessed Longarm would give it to him as a gift. The others were confused and slightly concerned at his wide-optic expression before he gently took the item out to show them and put it on. They all had wide optics.
In the case was also a letter, it said "read silently" on the top- a sign for Bee to keep whatever was inside to himself. He read the letter and his expression softened before turning into a wide smile with a giggle. No matter how much Sari asked what was in the letter he never told before hiding it in his subspace. The others could only guess what was written in it.
Once the night came and everyone was in recharge, Bee snuck out of the base and drove to a secluded spot mentioned in the letter- the letter itself was a love confession. Words that Longarm- that Shockwave, was too shy to tell in front of Bee neatly written down on a piece of Cybertronian paper. Feelings and passion as well as sincerity and trust put into each of them along with an invitation- Longarm wanted to meet up with Bee all alone the same night he got the gift. The crown was supposed to interpret how important Bee was to him. The letter was written in a way that Bee understood his own feelings towards Longarm, he couldn't wait to see him again.
Bee was pleasantly surprised when he saw a picnic out in the snow under a makeshift ice gazebo. (Yes, Shock paid Blitz to make it, he didn't tell why and paid even more for Blitz to not ask any questions.)
It was so pretty, everything was coated with sparkles from frost and decorative lamps, Bee was wearing the crown he got which made him look even more stunning.
Bee teased Longarm a little for not saying it himself but he really didn't mind. They spend the night together, monching on fancy snacks and drinks, they even slow danced- the fact it was drizzling snow made it even more special.
Of course, Blitzwing when making the gazebo had a feeling Shockwave was gonna use it for some romantic purpose so he secretly put a mistletoe in one of the arches- and under that arch Bee and Longarm stood at the end of the night. It might have been a cheesy romantic movie moment but neither of them disliked it. Longarm didn't know something from human relationship culture can feel so good.
It took nearly 2 days of Sari being suspicious and Bee acting oddly giddy for her to sit him down on the couch and accuse him of being in love.
"Yes, and? What's wrong about it?" Bee have said while crossing his arms. Sari was flabbergasted, she honestly didn't expect him to admit it on the first try. She assumed he was gonna defend himself in some way. Others were surely surprised to know Bee and Longarm were now dating but they were happy for them.
Aaand that's it! I hope you enjoyed my little story for this ask.
On the side note: Bee keeps the case with the crown in a hidden spot in his room that only he knows about, he wears the crown only for special occasions like Christmas or fancy dates with Longarm.

Practicing backlighting, featuring a whole mess of ATLA ships.
It's cool if you don't like one or more of these ships! Just please keep those opinions off this post :)

For ship rankings:
Longbee
Maibee (Mai/Smellerbee)
Jozai (June/Ozai)
(I tried to think of really weird, out there ships but all that came to mind was Cabbage Merchant/Kuei for some reason)
As if you don't know how I feel about these ships. However, I am happy to humor you.
I love Smellerbee. I love Longshot. I love the connection they have, and how well it can be felt despite their very few on screen appearances. I love them. I just love them. And so, I must bequeath to LongBee: I love them and They rented a room in my mind and are here to stay. They deserve every wonderful beautiful post-canon future that allows them to stay together and be happy.
I like we concocted MaiBee (which has the cutest ship name btw) one time, right? I remember us talking about them being the Knife Wives, and their first encounter undressing each other, they just keep finding more knives and get derailed talking about the knives and didn't you write this as a fic too? I remember making the connection while writing a fic once, that Smellerbee and Mai are kind of similar in terms of interests and personalities (though Smellerbee definitely is more comfortable emoting outwardly). I think they'd make a fine couple. In short, Cute / I love them.
June/Ozai. The crack ship that should be. She could get it. He could get it. I like 'em both ways; pathetic wet sad post-losing his bending and learning how to be less of a shithead!Ozai/June, and Fire Lord in all his overly dramatic glory!Ozai/June. Give me both. I deserve both. Unashamedly, They rented a room in my mind and are here to stay.
I vaguely remember someone bringing up Cabbage Merchant/Kuei and honestly, I kind of feel about Kuei the way I do about Haru: I don't think about him. He's there. I generally don't ship him because I forget about him. But Kuei has more pizzazz because he's so sheltered and naive and dumb. Maybe the Cabbage Merchant meets Kuei while Kuei goes to travel the world with Bosco on an adventure that certainly wouldn't lead to their immediate deaths because come on neither of them has ever had to fend for themselves in any way, does Kuei even know how to put on his own shoes? Maybe Cabbage Merchant teaches him how to put on his own shoes, and through that bit of interaction, love blossoms between them and they ride off into the sunset on Bosco's back and eat cabbage stew everyday. Anway, I rank them as I need to see how I could make it work.

For summer bingo: Smellershot, the Polaroids prompt
I done did a thing. I have also forgotten to how write my own ATLA OTP, apparently. So that's nice.
@atla-multishipping-bingo
Summer Bingo B4 - Polaroids
“Hold the camera still!”
“...I am?”
“You’re not, it’s shaking, I can see it from here.”
Longshot rolls his eyes, looks down at the camera - it’s not shaking, not from what he can see. His hands are steady. He’s sure of it. He has no idea what Smellerbee is thinking. Sometimes he swears she’s going blind, and she’s only twenty two. (And that would not be good, because then she wouldn’t be able to read his hands.)
Longshot glances up at her again, shrugs, raises one eyebrow. What do you want me to do?
(He’s silent, like always. She’s never minded.)
Smellerbee rolls her eyes, but there’s a grin on her face, and she walks back over to him.
“Come on, you,” Bee says, grabbing his hand. She drags over to where she’d been standing, gently takes the ancient Polaroid camera - she’d found it in a thrift shop, she’d said, and couldn’t resist - from his hand.” I’ll show you how to get this right.”
He loops an arm around her shoulders, pulls her in close as she takes off her beanie, shakes out her hair. Longshot’s breath hitches in his chest as the sunlight catches in Bee’s hair - he’s not sure what it is, really, but it almost sparkles.
“And now I hold the camera up, and just go like this,” Bee says, extending her arm, the camera pointed at them. He leans in close, smiling, except suddenly Bee has her lips pressed to his.
The camera clicks, and for a moment, everything’s right.
