Tfa Blackarachnia - Tumblr Posts
I've been watching this on loop for the last 5 minutes and it's still not any less hilarious.
I've been listening this song too much that it became my fav‼️
So I made this and I've been working on this everyday. I’ll be posting the rough version soon
Take your OpLita angst :3
Como cuando quieres volver con tu ex, pero ella te vuelve a mentir:

I think too much about AUs where Elita can not only coexist as a techno-organic with her boys again, but where Optimus gets his friends back, and Sentinel is shown through his example that a bot‘s spark is more important than the sum of their parts. Whatever they’re made of. The miracle of Sentinel learning anything, tho...


(I tried two angles to get this thing to not be so blurry. It’s not like I enjoy making you all squint, I am trying to be a better botfriend to you)
(Also frag it. This can definitely be seen as romantic, so I’ll tag it)
This was my first tfa scribbles ever, but I hated how they turned out. I know I’ll never finish them, though, so frag it. Here they are.
Context is Optimus stealing the hearts of the Decepticons after he officially becomes Megatron’s courting obsession and fully accepts his new role.






Shockwave was in this, but also stuffed into a corner, suffering Optimus’ kindness. I’ll spare you.
Bumblebee -too young and ungrateful to appreciate the new age peace with war and civil frames just quietly existing without bloodshed- blasting Nicki Minaj outside the Iacon plaza to destroy everyone who’s not an Earth Bots’ good day.

✨Let's go to the beach-each
Let's go get a wave
They say what they gonna say
Have a drink, clink, found the Bud Light
Bad bitches like me is hard to come by
Earth Bot culture is having semi violent arguments over which Scooby Doo movie is the best💕
Bulkhead: Ooh, ooh, ‘Scooby Doo Meets the Boo Brothers’!
Mixmaster: Booze Brothas, definitely!
Scrapper: Yeah! I second that!
Dirtboss: You’re tha third, ya dunce.
Bumblebee: That one’s a classic, but it’s not the best. The best is-
Blurr- ‘ScoobyDooAndTheCyberchase’!
Starscream: YES! Yes- Cyberchase, all the way! It’s honestly the only Scooby film I can stand-
Bumblebee: It’s good, but it’s not the best!
Blitzwing: I actually like ze more recent Lochness Monster one.
Ratchet: Eh, I guess I do, too.... But I think ‘Scooby Doo and the Ghoul School’ wins at best Scooby Doo film, Starscream.
Blackarachnia: Finally, we agree!
Starscream: Fine, I take it back. That’s the best one.
Soundwave: Ghoul School; Superior.
Bumblebee: Ok, yes, but-
Blitzwing: Ohh, Ja! How could I forget I like zat one, too!!
Bumblebee: It isn’t about every single one that you like! It’s about which one is the best! Holy spark-
Waspinator: Waspinator like ‘Scooby Doo and the Reluctant Werewolf’ best.
Blackarachnia: I think you’re unwell....
Slipstream: Yeah, yeah, whatever. That ones worthy, I suppose. But check this out- ‘Scooby Doo and the Legend of Vampire Rock’~
Ratbat: *Shrieks*
Grimlock: That Grimlock favorite! That one best!
Bumblebee: But-
Grimlock: No contest!
Thundercracker: Certainly. Unless it’s competing with ‘Scooby Doo and the Alien Invaders’, of course.
Skywarp: Oh my god, I’m in love with that movie~
Starscream: Over rated.
Thundercracker: It’s massively under rated!
Bulkhead: I liked the romance in that one.
Lockdown: I liked that it had a jackalope in it. Those are rare.
Prowl: Those are mythical....
.....
......
.........
Optimus: ....I, ah, like The Witches Ghost best....
*sudden collective screaming*
Soundwave: Obsession: Hex Girls.
Prowl: Excellent contribution. The animation quality, as well as the-
Blackarachnia: They stole my look, but I totally don’t mind~
Starscream: You wish you were as hot as Thorn, Rosie from Bug’s Life.
Blitzwing: I prefer Luna.
Sari: Ok, ok, wait! I actually can’t choose between The Witches Ghost or ‘Scooby Doo on Zombie Island’!
*More collective screaming*
Ratchet: Dammit... they’re both, too perfect. Velma really makes that movie.
Scrapper: I guess those two are in a tie for the best then-
Lugnut: No! I say The Witches Ghost is the best!
Grimlock: Grimlock disappointed in big plane with small brain.
Blurr: Why isn’t Cyberchase getting the appreciation it deserves? WHY?!
Waspinator: Waspinator changes mind to Cyberchase.
Blurr: Oh spark, ThankYouSoMuch-IWasBeginningToThinkYouAllHadSufferedProcessorDamageAtSomePoint-
Bumblebee: GUYS, ENOUGH, ALREADY! ENOUGH! ITS OBVIOUSLY THE SCOOBY DOO WRESTLEMANIA MYSTERY!
*Terrified screeching*
Sari: YOU ARE DEAD TO ME!
Starscream: NO, BUT HE’S ABOUT TO BE!
Blackarachnia: You could have said anything! You could have said ‘Chill Out Scooby Doo’! Or ‘Scooby Doo and the Monster of Mexico’! Why would you do this to us?!
Bumblebee: Would you have accepted, ‘Scooby Doo and the Monster of Mexico’?
Blackarachnia: Yes! The characters are actually lovable and sincere! I would have accepted frgging ‘Scooby Doo in Where’s my Mummy’, not-
Megatron: I like the live action Scooby Doo actually.
Ratchet: Why don’t you go to hell?!
Starscream: THE BETTER QUESTION IS: WHY ARE YOU IN CHARGE OF AN ENTIRE FACTION!? GHOUL SCHOOL WAS RIGHT THERE, COMPLETELY AVAILABLE TO YOU, AND YOU ABANDONED IT! YOUR JUDGEMENT IS FLAWED- YOU ARE FLAWED, YOU SHOULD BE STRIPPED OF YOUR TITLE AND MADE A PUBLIC EXAMPLE OF! AN EXAMPLE OF HOW HORRIBLE A MECH YOU ARE, AND IF YOU HAD SAID THAT TO ME ABOUT 10 MILLION YEARS AGO, I WOULD HAVE LEFT YOU IN GUN MODE, BARREL DOWN IN A TAR PIT WITH YOUR FIRING PIN REMOVED.
Megatron: .....The Witches Ghost is good, too....
Sari: Why don’t you just stand next to me for a while.
This is actually what I mean when I say post-war/peace era SKSLSKSKD










Some boys I unironically wish would shut up and just kiss spiders more


And be nicer
I wanted to finish part 2 of my appreciation AU thing, which has nothing to do with this, but then this happened anyway and I want to be gay for free here, if that’s alright

I’ll never sit down and write this properly, but Optimus and crew never returning to Cybertron for some reason (like Magnus being beyond forgiving them for destroying their precious life source and thinking they’re all a lost cause).
And then years later, he starts convicting criminals and people who’ve affronted the Senate so terribly (or SOMETHING) to go live out the rest of their short, terrible lives on Earth (what he has always seen as a hellscape). Using this punishment like it’s a fate worse than death.
So here are these petrified bots being taunted and told horror stories of ‘Earth *gasp!* Oh the putrid, most vile- Earth!’ by guards and other prisoners who think they are ‘lucky’ not to be the ones sentenced to such a fate, saying how nightmarish a life condemned to this place truly is. Just crying and praying to Primus for forgiveness and to make their deaths on this pit-planet a quick one.
And then they GET THERE, and after a few weeks or months of wandering, just come across these strange, unmistakable signs of Cybertronian life lingering in places, and follow them as far as they can until they wind up at this janky looking warehouse with plastic flamingos outside and strings of porch lights.
And then inside they follow the voices through the strangely furnished rooms until they come to a factory sized kitchen where all the gays come to congregate from am to pm, full to the brim of civil frames and war machines, laughing and talking loudly about nonsense the poor bot has never heard before.
——And if this isn’t the first incident of this happening, then they begin to notice that there are the other prisoners who’d been banished here some time ago and also the Lord of the Decepticons and no one seems to be in any anguish, and also there’s a large, unignorable spider on the ceiling, handing down a case of Energon cubes to Cybertron’s former CMO, Ratchet, and nobody is miserable???
Other than those that are too close to Blitz/Bee blasting their 100 gecs and Cakepop in a room with people just trying to have a conversation.
(And Magnus has no idea Optimus and crew are steadily rehabilitating these mechs into upstanding citizens and functional members of Earth society)
Magnus sends a team of ‘backup’ to Optimus on Earth finally to battle the ‘Cons. But it’s another team of ill-fit ‘wash outs’ because Magnus is horrible at taking Optimus seriously enough to care about his struggles (and THAT is the most brain dead, base line, black and white take of mine that’s not overly serious on some context for how this happens DHHFJJ Look at me making plot devices)
And old timer Kup, with his plentiful experience but high level of disregard like what they did to Ratchet, is one of the ones to get sent.
Optimus…. IS ELATED. He is JUMPING off the walls to accommodate his old drill instructor and designation giver. And Kup is chill and content as he always is and really really good at drowning Optimus in validation and returned affection to see his own student in little more than 3 words, like: There’s mah boy!
And pats his back in a big hug
And the earth gang bear witness to an actually happy Optimus for the first time in their lives- the one that earned his cheery designation.
But that ain’t all. Kup snaps Sentinel in to shape anytime he sets a foot out of line. He makes Sentinel behave and at first Sentinel is a rude ass about it, but does as he knows is respectful of him anyway. Same as with Magnus.
But the longer Kup is there issuing stern reminders on basic decency with his incredible loving grandpa vibes who adores all his little miscreant students, the more genuinely tamed Sentinel becomes.
Then he runs across Blackarachnia finally as life on earth goes on, and he knows her INSTANTLY. Is already offering a hand to help her get back on her pedes and stop this nonsense with a single: Elita, come on back, now. It’s time to take a break.
Which he doesn’t mean from her ‘evil’, errant ways, because he is disapproving of her Decepticon lifestyle, but entirely understanding of it and not degrading and punishing her for it.
No, he means, ‘take a break’ from all her fear and anxiety and hopelessness and struggle with self worth. Just come back to Kup and be the careless kid Elita-One once was and join her teammates (Optimus and Sentinel) again
And that is my thoughts on how these three finally reconcile and move past most of their hate/ baggage. It isn’t suddenly perfect, but they all our working towards falling in love with how different their personalities and strengths and weaknesses are and learning to love them again, letting go of their horrid history to finally do some healing.
Best friends five-ever
I watched Transformers One today, and am eternally mad at myself for never talking about an old headcanon I had for Sentinel having wings, because guess what Transformers One Sentinel had



Starscream: I don’t brag.

tfa screen cap redraws from 2018
TFA Underground City AU Part 5 (Decepticons)
Megatron
- The warlord couldn’t comprehend how such a meager little Autobot could best him, HIM- in battle. There was no way any Autobot could’ve known about his blind spot. Unless this little Prime was the next Magnus-to-be but not even Ultra Magnus knew of his blind spot. He wasn’t familiar with the fighting style either. It was a mixture of that repulsive Autobot training and something more. He’s fascinated by the masked Prime even more by it.
- He tries spying on them but he was found out sooner than expected, by the scout no less. He swore those blue optics zeroed on his spy cam the moment he entered the room.
- He has a certain fascination towards the Tunnels Mechs, stories of them only grow rarer by the era and he’s seen the Tunnels Mechs aided both Decepticon and Autobot at rare moments. Moments such as a pair of mechs catching Starscream from falling, an arm pulling the Autobot Medic out of firing range, so on and so forth. His respect stems from such events and Shockwave’s personal recount when he was allowed through one of the tunnels just once to get out of a collapsing building. They might’ve been foolish to allow outsiders through their tunnels but they had reason for it. Would anyone have stopped them from keeping their planet alive?
- He wonders where were they now and what happened to them to simply be erased from history. He’s wondered before if Cybertron could survive without both the All Spark and the Tunnels Mechs.
Starscream
- He doesn’t care too much about those tunnel dwellers but like any other sensible Decepticon he has some level of respect for their efforts, the Autobots would truly be fools if they had rid of them.
- A mech he knew long ago was a Sea Jack. Kind fellow, dead fellow.
- He hadn’t expected whatever relation he had with Skyfire would save him after he was gone. Certainly not in the form of two Sea Jacks saving his aft after his wing was shot off. “ We owed him.” Was all they had said before disappearing again.
- He never told anyone what he knew of Sea Jacks or any Tunnels Mech. Personally, “ It’s our secret, Star”
Lugnut
- He had once thought of them as cowards for not taking up arms to fight the war. Strika had been the one to tell him what they were truly doing and after Megatron unofficially approving of their efforts, he has some respect for them.
- He had killed an Ice Mech once and unfortunately injured dozens more, he had mistaken the slightly larger civilian frames for a regular Autobot’s. He didn’t know, he truly didn’t until a frost covered pickaxe came flying at his biggest optic. The injury made his new optic itch still, unable to integrate properly into his frame.
- He’d been more careful with badgeless mechs since.
- The Autobot Prime had removed his badge some time before the Elite Guard showed up so he’s not sure how to react to that.
Blitzwing
- He doesn’t know anyone who was a Tunnels Mech. The stories seemed rather a bit far fetched in his opinion. It was rather absurd to think mechs could be living beneath Cybertron.
- It became more plausible when the Prime broke out of his ice so smoothly. Of course he knew the ice doesn’t kill mechs. But the way he moved showed a familiarity to the cold substance. Each hack with that axe was precise, he knew exactly where to hit to shatter an entire chunk with one hit.
- The hummel proved insecticons were real so why not Tunnels Mechs.
Blackarachnia
- She’s never heard of these tunnel dwellers before joining the Decepticons. She didn’t get why these bots were respected or special in any way. It’s not like only they knew how to run the cores and temperatures on Cybertron....oh shit, they are the only who knew.
- Is the planet going to die? Can they be replaced? Autobot society is so screwed up.
- Can they be recreated? Apparently not. There were too many details and specifications to be able to recreate anything like them. Word has it that they fled the planet after some sort of event during her academy years. She recalled how upset Optimus had been one cycle, he wasn’t even talking anymore. She brushed off the memory, like he’d actually know anything about the Tunnels Mechs.
- Giving up on the Tunnels Mech stories mostly due to how vague they were, she focused on her own goals.
- She’ll have to decide something one day when she sees Optimus again.
Shockwave
- His time as a senator had been one of the reasons he was still standing. It had given him the chance to meet the fabled Tunnels Mechs.
- They had foolishly allowed him passage and he sought to make note of the routes and use them for the Decepticon cause. “ Cybertron’s chaging.” His guide had told him as he walked down the passage. He waited for anything else but was met with silence. The silence was broken once again by a humm, soon joined by several voices as they sang in Whisper, the rhythm of their work as they moved reminded him when he had visited Megatron in the mines all those years ago. “ Goodbye, Senator.” The guide mutters before leaving.
- When he returned to infiltrate the Autobots the sight of the sealed tunnels devastated him. Every single entry was completely sealed. He tried opening one at Rodion but was greeted with a mountain of dead frames just rusting there, they were trying to escape.
- The discovery was broadcasted throughout the Decepticon network, caught on by a few Tunnels Mechs who were secretly among them and spread to every known Tunnels Mech network until it reached the Tunnels Mechs travelling at the edges of the universe and back to the ones on Cybertron.
The news of what happened to the Tunnels Mechs were intercepted by a rather hated enemy to all of Cybertron. They wanted to use this opportunity to invade Cybertron now that the primary system protecting its core has been eradicated.
Thanks again so much this is awesome 👌 👏 👍 😍 💖
Hahaha 😆 just the thought of Sentinel ask blackarachnia that and she knows Damm well she wasn't pregnant before the academy
Thanks so much for the first ask 😊 but what about Sentinel I know he wouldn't be protective of him but he would definitely stair at bee a lot I bet he even thought at one point " did elita even have a son " lol ohh and how would blackarachnia feel if she actually got a good look at bee like
blackarachnia : why does the little one look so much like me
Sentinel: before the academy were you ever you know...........
Elita: NO !!
You're welcome.
And yes, Sentinel wouldn't be protective of Bumblebee, but he'll definitely stare at him a lot. Of course, back when Sentinel was Bee's drill sergeant, Sentinel had wondered if Bumblebee was Elita's clone or something. Plus, after losing Elita, Sentinel would have stayed away from Bee for a while since was too painful for him.
Blackarachnia also would have been shocked when she met Bumblebee. Surprisingly, Blackarachnia and Bumblebee didn't interact much, though I believe it's because it's painful for her to look at him since he looks like her before she was a techno-organic. So every time she looks at him, he reminds her of the time she was once that young and carefree bot she used to be.
Also yes, if given the chance, Sentinel would have asked Blackarachnia if she's related to Bumblebee, to which she responds with a big no.
