My fear is getting an idea for a fic, starting to write it, then finding out that there is a fic I had no idea existed before that has a similar plot to what I'm writing.
This has already happened to me like 3 times since I started writing last June and I've just deleted the fics altogether out of fear each time.
I probably could have kept them but I fear people saying I've copied what I hadn't known existed before.
you know what time it is? time to be paranoid that my au is too similar to someone else's more popular au that uses some of the same ideas even though these are my original ones even if they do come from the same place
aopwdsapklwasdokl my biggest fear is someone accusing me of copying and then having to try and justify myself. lets hope victory au never gets wildly popular
I like to think that when they get startled, they’d instinctively transform into their alt modes like turtles or pangolins cuz they’re much more compact and sturdy and smaller targets 😌 also maybe possibly I am secretly a sucker for bloominglegumes’s jazterwave stuff so I wanted to make something with them too 🙄 but I’ll never tell. Also this is my first time drawing Jazz, so I hope it’s good for the Jazz fans out there
WIP of ShockJack fan child
This is part of the ships prompt I asked for at the end of last month to let me work on my drawings skills (does not help that I'm working on my phone)
Anyway, I was given Shockwave x Wheeljack by @too-many-hyperfixations and decided to finally start trying to work out how to draw a fanchild of these two. Thought I'd share my progress and see if anyone had tips that might help me. (I need to also think of names for her)
Made this only because I've seen around 8,000 different versions of this on Twitter the last few hours. Perhaps the peak of my artistic abilities.
Does anyone else do this to keep track of their fics and ideas, or am I just weird? It's definitely a mess but I like doing it idk.
(Ask a question on anything here if you want, I need interaction)
Ok, got my first round of ships I'm gonna do
-------------------------------------------------------
Skyfire x Starscream for @goldgardener
Anode x Lug for @aromantic-dragons
Red Alert x Jetfire for @too-many-beloveds
Shockwave x Wheeljack for @too-many-hyperfixations
Prowl x Starscream for @smoked-salmon-official
-------------------------------------------------------
After this batch of ships I might take some more, not sure yet. These are mostly just to practice my Transformers drawing.
Someone give me a Transformers ship I can try to draw. Might make a fan sparkling for them too if I can figure that out.
I'll take like 5 ideas to work on for the next while.
(I'm not going to do MegOP, that's the only one I'm afraid of attempting)
Hey everyone, just want to say that "I Got Soul, But I'm Not A Soldier" is going on Hiatus until the end of May/early June.
Ever since my new semester of college has started, I have felt constantly exhausted with the amount of work I've had to do. That's also why chapters have fallen from once every two weeks during September through December to once every month since then.
I was already thinking about going on Hiatus since after chapter 12 was posted, but after nearly having two separate panic attacks over my workload last week, I've decided it's for the best.
So, until after my finals for the semester in May, there will be no new chapters of "I Got Soul" being posted on AO3. I might still work in small amounts when I get free time, but anything that is finished will still not come out till after finals. I will likely still be active here on Tumblr during this Hiatus, posting any art I do or random things.
Finally, I want to once again thank everyone that has supported my fics. This notice will be cross posted to my fic to update all of my other readers.

Writing fics in college is fun cuz like what do you mean I have two essays due in a week, I'd rather write my favorite characters going through the most angsty scenarios possible.
ROTB Bumblebee head
Tried adding detail to this one. Think it turned out pretty well.
Looks like Transformers: Animated won the poll! Guess I'll start watching that soon and see what strikes me for a fic idea as I go through.
(I will probably also watch Rescue Bots after I finish Animated, that show got a lot of support from people and was pretty close to winning.)
Besides the first season of Animated that I watched forever ago, I have never watched any of these shows before somehow. Whatever wins I'll watch and probably write a fic for it once I finish.
Finally started working on chapter 13 of 'I Got Soul', but that quickly got dropped to work on one of my other fic ideas.
It's either going to be something nice & fluffy, or I'm going to hit a random character with the angst brick. Guess I'll have to see how I feel.

Grew up with Transformers: Prime TV show and always really loved the faceless screen mask design of Soundwave. Then I think I just got the avid part from randomly searching through words.

Tag your moots and ask them where they got the idea for their tumblr accounts name!
For my name it was a nickname I was giving back in middleschool! One of our teacher had a system where we worked with 'wifi' eachtime we talked in class we lost a bar of the "wifi" (was a weird joke and we never held count on that) All the kids usually joked if they needed 'wifi' , they would borrow mine if they wanted to talk more. (I was incredibly shy in middle school, I only talked to like 3 people at school;^;)
They called me Ms. Wifi because of that. I just thought it would be funny if I put 'miss' instead of 'ms' because of my terrible actual wifi connection I have at home lol.
That's my story! Now moots, only if you guys want to, tell us your story.

MegOP Week 2025 dates and prompts have officially been announced!
Further rules and specifications will be posted closer to the event, but here's a quick run-down of how it works:
All content related to Megatron and Optimus Prime in a relationship is allowed, whether romantic, sexual, platonic, or familial.
Although the event/blog name is "megop," opmeg content is also allowed; there's no restrictions related to who's the top/bottom, dominant/submissive, etc.
This event is NSFW-friendly and dark content-friendly (so long as everything is tagged properly).
This event is OT3+/poly/multiship-friendly, as long as Megatron and Optimus are the primary characters/ship involved
All art forms are allowed, including but not limited to art, fic, podfic, AMVs, screencap edits/photomanipulation, crafts, and any other way you'd like to participate!
Only new submissions will be included in the event collection on AO3, Tumblr, etc. However, it's also okay to post something like a multichapter fic that isn't completed within the time limit of MegOP Week, so long as it's a brand-new piece that hasn't been previously uploaded before.
Also, if you're interested in getting hands-on with the event, this blog is still accepting applications for new mods both here on Tumblr and on other sites like Bluesky! See this link to apply.
Feel free to also submit questions to the ask box if you'd like further clarification on rules, dates, prompts, or anything else related to the event! Happy brainstorming and creating!
Imagine this, but the situation is reversed.
Jazz, the cheerful Spec Ops mech and TIC of the Autobots, being turned into a emotionless mech with no memory.
Empurata!Jazz would also be a devastating loss for the Autobots with how he's usually depicted as a morale officer and friend for many.
And then there's Prowl, who was closed off until Jazz came into the picture, seeing the only mech that went out of their way to spend time with him mutilated. Prowl would probably fall into his work and cause end up hurting himself
Hello… Anon that requested Jazz holding Empurata!Prowls face but didn’t specify which face

I think I just had a terrible idea for a fic that I haven't seen done yet.
I'm gonna try and cook with this
Was writing the next chapter of 'I Got Soul' and just realized that something else would work better for the flow of the chapter. Now I have to rewrite most of the first half that I've been working on all day 🙃
Jazz chapter!
My AO3 stats from 2024 (template from @spicedrobot)
Really surprised by how high these stats are considering I only started writing at the end of August.
My fic I Got Soul, But I'm Not A Soldier did way better than I was expecting. I'm nowhere near complete with the fic but I still wanted to put the stats from it on here.
From my other three fics, I'd say Unlikely (But Still Lovely) is my favorite. I wrote this for TF Rare Pairing Fest on Sunstreaker & Hound. Very short and sweet in my opinion, and I really liked how I wrote them.
Want to thank everyone who's read my fics so far, I'm really hoping to write more this year!

Hi, just found you while scrolling and I want to say: I loooove your fic. Just an hour ago I was reading the latest chapter, I like the way Starscream and Skyfire's relationship is growing in this scenario and that they are both making an effort to reconcile past and present to build an united future. So sweet!
Oh, but that last bit! I see darker times coming for them and I'm excited as much as worried... As always, eager to read more of this work and how things will go for everyone!
Thanks for the support!
I'm trying my best to make Starscream and Skyfire's relationship progress right while trying to get through problems they each face with their own issues.
And darker times are fast approaching for them and the Autobots.
