yes. no. we’re breaking down stereotypes here !! this post is aimed at casual users who care about freedom + privacy, are sick of the direction Windows is heading, or just curious c:
i’m talking social media, email, web browsing, online shopping, pdfs, document writing, funny meme edits, youtube/netflix/plex, spotify, dvds + cds + mp3s etc.
i’ll mention gaming and running specific Windows-only software briefly, but that’s outside the casual scope i’m going for d:
my hobby is not paying attention at the beginning of how it’s made segments and then spending the whole time perplexed trying to figure out wtf they’re making
do i ever… this is kind of just canon but he definitely likes classic rock. i would love nothing more than to stare at the ceiling and listen to pink floyd with him. i also think he’s kind of a pop culture and subculture nerd in general… like who just quotes planet of the apes as their first line in the show 🤨
i wish he and cheetor got more screen time together, it seems like they only ever talk strategy which idk maybe that really is the extent of their relationship but it could be anything. at the same time i really like that he seems to get along way better with rattrap and blackarachnia, it only makes sense since his personality is more like theirs than cheetor’s (within bm it’s easy to forget he’s actually pretty cheerful and i imagine him going right back to that once the apocalypse is dealt with)
between noble, rav (a toy-only sentient (?) drone) and all the maximals being older than him i think he’s the sort of person who can befriend any type of person
i don’t think he’d be obsessed with them or anything but i think he’d be absurdly, absurdly good at rhythm games. oh and since he can sing the frequency to sever peoples’ sparks from their body (so overpowered and also so interesting to think about irt to megatron whose whole thing is that he took everyone’s sparks out… really any comparison of him and megatron/noble is fascinating) he definitely has perfect pitch
i think being critical comes extremely naturally to him, he’s the sort of person where you can name anything and he can instantly think of 10 things he doesn’t like about it. he’s the roast-on-demand friend
i think he would go to any of the maximals for life advice but blackarachnia would usually be his first choice. it’s probably because i’ve watched terminator 2 and aliens too many times but their relationship is everything to me, and i believe the intent was to have him see her as a mother figure but i like that it turned out more ambiguous and could be aunt or sister-like or something with no human equivalent
i wish he and botanica EVER interacted. if he didn’t already have an interest in science i think being surrounded by only scientists for months would definitely give him one, she can teach him much in the ways of botany. i have also wondered whether his vampirism will be a problem post-canon, like does he need to feed on others’ energy to survive or is that just something he can do? i think probably the latter but in the case that he did, i can see botanica being the one to walk him through that existential crisis
i think his alt mode being a bat suits him perfectly and even though there was no action on his part in adopting it i love how it happened, but if he ever changed it… i think a dragon would be fitting, sort of like a bat but more powerful… a callback to noble…
there’s like never a point where he’s actually in charge of something but i bet he’d be a great leader (he is based on john connor after all). i really wish transtech (the planned but cancelled beast machines sequel) happened because i really want to see what he would be like as a young adult, i would want him to take over cheetor’s role as second-in-command since cheetor would take optimus’ place as leader…
my favorite thing about eggstra work isnt actually playing but watching top teams’ vods once its over. it’s really interesting and cool how different teams can have such different strategies for the same seed but get almost identical numerical results
Hi this is the prev anon, I mixed up g1 and marvel somehow. I was asking if you had any headcanons about the marvel comic siren, nightbeat and hosehead! And also if you have any headcanons about hosehead in idw as well.
ah i assumed you meant them but i thought you might’ve meant like cancer wilder and bullhorn or something :p as for marvel… it’s kind of weird that they’re together so often when nightbeat clearly finds the other two annoying so i always pictured them as being assigned to him by autobot high command because nightbeat is too free of a spirit so they’re there to keep an eye on him haha (obviously they still let him get into plenty of trouble. but i think they keep him from getting killed which is what command really cares about). despite that i think they formed a genuine bond over time… i mean they were playing chess or something in one panel and watching a mystery in another, so cute.
which makes hosehead dying to unicron and nightbeat dying in g2… really sad :’< (casually drops this fic). but that doesn’t have to be the only ending. i really love what classicsverse did with them and the idea that after the war they were among the first to do their own thing and start an actual detective agency (its sad that hosehead isnt there though but at least his headmaster is) also the fact that nightbeat and muzzle apparently have one of the most seamless binary bonds but siren and quig are way more at odds with each other is interesting. i can see nightbeat giving them really condescending relationship advice lol
hosehead is such a non-entity in idw that it almost makes me think he’s like rung. not that he’s secretly important necessarily but just that they have similar personalities and temperaments. they always mean well but can’t always pull it off. and not that its unique to crush on thunderclash but it definitely makes me think of him as a hopeless romatic. actually i ship that so hard lol
