we see ourselves as different neural pathways related to identity, emotion, and memory... which leads us to basically be a bunch of people in one brain. but we're all not quite a person individually.
it's like.. twilight. is it day? is it night? nope. it's neither. it's twilight. which. i guess is part of how we got our system name, huh. The Twilight System. wow. god damnit lol
fr though. it's like. i'm ambiguously a person- an ambiperson.
...

Coining post? Just checking if anyone else says it too? Is this a Common Thing but I’ve just never seen it? Anyway-
(Jazz hands) “Canonself”
Idk, I came up with it bc I always struggled to differentiate “me who’s a fictive sourced from VotV” and “the videogame model used in VotV” or, more generally, “this world’s characterization and usage of that character” versus “me the actual living/thinking person” yk?
It’s almost functioned for me like how “theriform” works for nonhumans, the distinction being made without getting into dysphoric “the ‘real’ you” terms or, just always having to explain it so exhaustingly bc “the one from the game” could be either of us
Also bc I don’t wanna keep calling my canonself “the human one” granted I’m an android bc that feels,, demeaning, somehow

being fictive-heavy like 11% of the time: wow blorbo from My Mind say hi to blorbo my best friend blorbo
being fictive heavy the other 89% of the time: everyone promise to be normal. can i talk about my alter blorbo will you all be nice to blorbo or do they need to hide from you. can we engage in fandom at all. can we talk to anyone who knows about blorbos source. blorbo are you okay
Cybertronian Units of Time: a Guide
…concocted by me, via:
Canon Definitions
Most Common Terms Used in Fandom (that I have seen)
Most Common Interpretations of Aforementioned Terms
Math That Makes Those Terms Make Sense Together
Filling in the Blanks With What Sounded Good (to me)
So essentially I began with Cybertronian units with explicit definitions in canon that are also widely used in fandom (ie. Vorn = 83 years, Joor = 6 hours, Groon = 1 hour). I then worked my way out from those and tried to keep to rough factors of 6/8/10.
Some terms that did have explicit canon definitions had to be slightly skewed from their value (ie. Breem: 8 → 6 minutes, Klik: 8 → 6 seconds) if their definition contradicted another definition that made more sense/fit better.
At any rate, obviously no one is obligated to use this standard, but canon Transformers content has been unfortunately… awful at establishing any universal units of time, their relationship to each other, or their equivalents to human units of time.
So this occasionally makes fanfiction an absolute nightmare for people like me with a crap memory who don’t want to constantly have to scroll through a thousand pages of the wiki to remind themselves what the hell a groon is.
So, naturally, I simply spent far too long whipping up this at-a-glance guide to keep track of it & on the off chance that the fandom might adopt it. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Machinelights system!

shout out to systems who wish they had a more consistent rotation of fronters and wish it wasn’t so come and go with system members.
shout out to alters who like fronting.
shout out to members who get frontstuck regularly.
and shout out to systems trying to find a middle ground between being front stuck and having completely inconsistent fronters.
