Ganked a meme from
caiusmajor!
One True Pairing Ship:
Okay, I figure OTP is "cannot stand to see the characters NOT be together" rather than "cannot stand to see the characters with anyone else," which is a very important distinction, so I'll go with Sideswipe and Sunstreaker. If they're in a story, their relationship needs to either not be mentioned or be with each other. Other people can join in, that's cool, but they need to be together.
Canon Ship:
oooooh. TFA Optimus/Blackarachnia. He wouldn't mind her organic half at all. He finds her just as lovely now as he ever did. He's a sweetheart like that. And it hurts to see her hate herself so much.
"If this happens I'll stab my eyes out with a spork" Ship:
Anyone/Cheetor. I hope I don't need to explain why.
Guilty Pleasure Ship:
...bad Jazz/Prowl. You know what I mean. The gooey, mushy stuff. I love it. I can't get enough.
"I dabble a little" Ship:
Optimus/Megatron. They're kind of a weird undercurrent to everything, a strange love/hate that I can't quite put words to. I'd never consider focusing on them, really, but dabble? yeah.
"It's like a car crash" Ship:
Huh. I could say Skyfire/Starscream, because their relationship is a goddamn car crash, but I think this means more that feeling of OH GOD IT'S SO WRONG I CAN'T LOOK AWAY. I'm not sure much of anything does that to me. As long as all parties are sentient, consenting adults, I'm pretty cool with everything.
No wait: Dinobot/Megatron. Car crash. Definitely.
The "WHY GOD WHY?" Ship:
Cassettes/Wheeljack. Dinobots/jettwins. Optimus/Soundwave. Shockwave/anyone but Megatron or Blurr.
"Tickles my fancy but not sold just yet" Ship:
Lugnut/Strika. Lockdown/Swindle.
"Everyone else loves it but I just don't feel it" Ship:
Bluestreak/Prowl. Bwuh? Dun get it.
"Makes no canon sense but why the hell not" Ship:
Ironhide/Ratchet. Seriously, no sense. In G1 Ironhide is busy starting at Optimus' blue butt, he doesn't have time for anyone else~
"Fanfic made me love it" Ship:
Optimus/Starscream (ilu TWTT!), Soundwave/Jazz (helly kinkmeme~), Demolishor/Sideways (S-SOB OH MY HEART), Galvatron/Cyclonus/Rodimus (I blame Caia), Skyfire/Aerialbots (mmm Childofatlantis)... I'm sure there's more.
"I wish there were more of it" Ship:
Cliffjumper/Mirage. Bumblebee/other Autobots. Ironhide/Optimus. Ratchet/Wheeljack. Perceptor/Drift. For some reason I see almost none of these! Come oooonnnn they're so awesome, give them some more love ;_; I haven't seen a single good Perceptor/Drift, not a single one. I may cry.
"It's complicated" Ship:
Shockwave/Blurr. No, I know, I don't like any of the fic that's out there for them either. Too fluffy. That would not be a nice relationship. It would not even really be a relationship. It's... complicated, yeah.
Prowl/Sunstreaker. Prowl would never go for it - he'd never sleep with a subordinate. He'd also never sleep with a superior, for similar reasons. He'd also never sleep with a coworker. He's pretty much screwed.
Longarm/Blurr. Mmmmmm. Whole new levels of OMG WRONG AND DELICIOUS.
Starscream/Megatron will always be insanely popular for all the wrong reasons. They're so complex. I couldn't possibly begin to explain them. They're caught up in a crazy dance of power and perception and it's amazing.
"I love it but I can't explain it" Ship:
TFA Grimlock/Optimus. I really can't explain that one. At all.
Metroplex/Anyone. ANYONE. MAKE IT WORK, WRITERS.
Scorponok/Anyone, Bay-verse. Oh yes. I adore this, I love it when people treat little multi-legged Scorponok like a sentient creature capable of being in pairings.
"When all is said and done" Ship:
Rattrap/Dinobot, Waspinator/Terrorsaur, Sideswipe/Sunstreaker, Optimus/Megatron, Mirage/Hound, unrequited Shockwave/Megatron, weirdly twisty Starscream/Megatron but not really... These are staples of my diet, yus. They're the foundations for everything else in my brain.

Attempt:
Date: 2010-07-12 01:31 am (UTC)It's Kup, of all the mechs, who knows a cityformer likes a little more than that. He remembers when cityformers were nurtured into being, meant to be the nucleus of a Cybertronian colony on other worlds. He remembers that they are very social creatures in their own way, that they deserve all the basic niceties of life.
His digits find the sensors and caresses a little, to see if Metroplex has missed this part of interaction. A slight ripple makes the city-dwellers curious, but Metroplex does move sometimes. It's answer enough for Kup, and he leans in gently against the panel, letting his fields and energies spiral up in offering. The intimacy of the fields that Metroplex brings into play tells Kup he was right to offer. It's such a small gesture, a trade of caring touch and energies for all that Metroplex gives them.
Kup gently strokes and caresses the sensors in the heart of the city, his optics slowly becoming the only light source as the room he is in dims. It's different, feeling the pulse of that much energy ripple along his body, and yet know he's only touching a tiny fraction of the mech he is with. Metroplex whispers on frequencies that haven't been used since Kup was a young mech, and it makes his Spark burn with memory. He offers up himself, data ports open, energies accepting the ones coiled around him now, here in the heart of the city.
Slowly, so slowly, Metroplex opens his experiences, offers them, and Kup joins his to the stream of data, joined at the port by Metroplex's seeking cables. Lost in memories shared, energies entwined, the pair found themselves on the verge of overload far faster than either truly wanted, but they slid over into it, awash in promises that this would not be the only union they shared.

Re: SUCCESS

Date: 2010-07-12 06:06 am (UTC)Nng, Sideswipe/Sunstreaker. Nothing tugs on my heart like those goddamn Lamborghinis. ;~;
Skyfire/Starscream like a car crash AHAHA oh god. It is.
My poor otp.I approve of all the Shockwave/Longarm/Blurr I am seeing. /innocent whistle
no subject
Date: 2010-07-12 07:19 am (UTC)Sideswipe and Sunstreaker are so lovely. Sunstreaker is my favorite ever. :( They're so sad in their own ways. Sunstreaker/everyone pretty enough to meet his standards
Skyfire and Starscream are fantastic oh my gosh. There's just so much going on there. So much implied history!
Longarm/Shockwave and Blurr. Mmmmm. Yes. That may be my favorite pairing - Sideswipe/Sunstreaker is like, a necessity of my life, but Shockwave/Blurr is the delicious pie of my days and nights. That metaphor makes no sense but WHO CARES IT'S DELICIOUS. The sizekink alone would blow my mind. mmmmm. But there is so much more that can go on there. MINDFUCKERY, WHAT.
no subject
Date: 2010-07-12 07:25 am (UTC)Sideswipe likes to pretty much eat my brain whole, but it doesn't diminish my absolute adoration for Sunstreaker~ Lol yesss. ♥ Sunny you vain glitch.
Ehehe yes. Most of my delving into it (or much of anything, /sob) has been pretty much indulgent little one-shots. |D Especially my older stuff
which I am spamming at the moment, lol. fffAnd oooh, I'll definitely have to give them a look. :3 Love love love them. <3That analogy is awesome and I'm sitting here at half past three in the morning giggling at it. |D Oh god, sizekink. |D And mindfuckery. I LOVE FUCKING WITH CHARACTERS MINDS. /notevil.
no subject
Date: 2010-07-12 07:55 am (UTC)Unrelatedly,
...oddly enough, most of my favorite pairings involve sizekink. Scalekink, really. The more totally out of scale they are, the more I will love them. Forget comparable sizes like the main cast - gimme Metroplex/Laserbeak or Ratchet/Omega Supreme or whatever. unf. Scalekink like crazy. Shockwave is like, extra kinds of awesome - the mass-shifting is SO HOT. Beyond words. And he's smart, so smart, and sly, and he has such beautifully delicate claws... mmmm I can go on and on about him. He's so fine. And he can screw with Blurr's head physically as well as mentally. :D BRAIN SURGERY. Yessss.
We're in the same time zone so I hope you'll be forgiving about the total incoherency of this comment. XD

Date: 2010-07-12 08:11 am (UTC)Oh my lord, I will have to check this out when I have had some slept and my mind isn't sort of half-raped by your hypnotizing icon. Ehehe. And I... honestly don't remember, rofl, I have a completely terrible memory. |'D Srsly though, give me probably another hour at least (if I don't pass out) and the bulk of what I've written will be up on this account. Easy access!
Omg, I adore Ratchet/Omega. ;^; S-So sweet. And for a lot of crack (it's my lifeblood), G1 Optimus/Omega. It's full of adorable, fff. And ffff don't get me started about Shockwave. ANY CONTINUITY I am such a shameless fangirl, hnng. It's partly the sexy, and the logic, and partly the pure audial sex that is Corey Burton's voice. Oh man. /rolls/ Fuck, I'm asexual, BUT I WOULD DO THAT BOT. O-OR EVEN JUST HIS VOICE.
Bahaha, so we're both up at bumfuck am like tardfaces. YAY. 8D
I'd ask you to forgive my comments as well, but sadly I really am this crazy. /facepalmno subject
Date: 2010-07-12 08:43 am (UTC)I have many mesmerising icons with which to rape your brain. :D Mmmm I look forward to rereading your stuff~ I saw Prowl/Sideswipe on there. UNF UNF. Prowl is probably my favorite to pair with the twins. He's just so hot.
Ratchet/Omega is so sweet omg. Also, dude - Ratchet can like, practically walk into the guy's sparkchamber. And he seemed really familiar with such an intimate activity. And they're so sweet and sad together and man, they have spent so much of their lives together - I want to see more of that.
SHOCKWAVE. That voice sets my pants on fire. I like, can't even think about his voice because I just get so - there aren't words for this! That one part in This Is Why I Love Shockwave where he says you're a tough old model, aren't you omg I DIED, I seriously did, because hearing him snarl is just - hnnnnngh excuse me while I combust
Oh, I'm this crazy too, I just usually hide it better when I'm not so tired. XD I'm trying to fix my sleep schedule. Ha. So not happening. All-nighters are not really plausible anymore.

Date: 2010-07-12 08:59 am (UTC)[Tangent on this line of thought: The Lost by The Starhorse is an amazingly well-done twincentric fic. |D]
Oh baby. I am such an iconwhore, seriously. My livejournal account is plenty evidence of that... (I think I forgot to friend you on there. OOPS.) Nng, Prowl/Sideswipe is right up there with OTP material for me. ♥ I'm also kinda a Prowl fangirl. Seriously, what is it about the logic... I'm also a Spock fangirl. Ahaha. >__>
Oh my lord, I know. More of it needs to exist. S-such potential for sweetness. ;__;
GJDFKL: Shockwaaave. ♥ Oh god that was my favorite episode ever because of GLORIOUS AMOUNTS OF SHOCKWAVE. /lugnut. T-trust me, I'm with you on that, I'm trying to suppress embarassing fangirly squeals because of dignity and the fact that EVERYONE IS ASLEEP ahaha. derp.
LOL Yeah. I should be trying to do that... Gone and fucked it over again. 8|;; Hopefully I'll have tomorrow off, that should help.
no subject
Date: 2010-07-12 09:12 am (UTC)I think I've read The Lost. I know I adore The Starhorse's work, but I can't recall what that one was about. Hrm. TIME TO READ IT AGAIN :D
mmmm Prowl. There is not enough Prowl. There can never be enough Prowl. You know, weirdly enough... I'm not a big fan of Spock. I'm more of a Kirk girl. Or Bones, even. But Prowl and Shockwave? Aw hell yeah. And I totally blame you for my sudden urge to write that.
SHOCKWAVE. I don't even - he's just so - YES. That is really all there is to it. I cannot contain the joy his very existence gives me.
WHO NEEDS SLEEP. HA. We have giant robots! AN AMPLY ADEQUATE SUBSTITUTE.
no subject
Date: 2010-07-13 02:45 am (UTC)and perhaps Bluestreak, and he's also a... teensy bit unhinged, so he'll trip into this duality of wanting to lash out like he normally would but not wanting to because of who it is. |D But he doesn't like that, either, so he's more angry. Aaand it just repeats into infinityor until someone smacks some sense into him and doesn't dieNothing ever ever makes me squee or baww in any fandom ever like those two. ;___; I swear to god, I don't even...
Ahaha, it's definitely worth another read, in any case. :D But you're right, all of her stuff is amazing, art or fic. There was one I read just recently that was call Semantics or something, I think. It was so. Amazing. oh man. XDDD Just, fff. I love how she writes Prowl, it's amazing. |D
Heh, I adore Bones too. :3 But Spooock. ♥ Lol, oh god, I'm already catching the blame for things. |D Oops.
If you make it work, I might have to marry you or something, ahaha.Shockwaaaaave. He's just made of every kind of awesome and win.
and occasionally noodly arms, teheSleep is for the weak. |D Robots are totally an adequate substitute.
DID SOMEONE SAY NOODLEARMS
Date: 2010-07-13 10:12 pm (UTC)Because of you I spent all of last night rereading her fics. *fistshake* Curse youuuuuuuu (not). I really do like her Prowl, especially when Sunstreaker is on trial. So insightful! So wonderful! He makes me purr. :3
The Prowl and Shockwave thing... Hmm. I'll have to think on it. Is it possible to come up with a reasonable scenario? PERHAPS. Will it live up to their logical scrutiny? NEVER.
YOUR ICON FFF
Date: 2010-07-13 10:37 pm (UTC)Ehehe, it's totally worth it, isn't it~? |3 Her Prowl is amazing, I think the way I write him is heavily influenced from her and two of my friends, haha. And oh god that was one of my favorite scenes/parts ever. Just. Yes. Especially how everyone was pretty much squirming in their seats and ffft. Prowl~ ♥
Lolol I have no idea how it would even work. |D And they're both sort of lurking in my head giving me disapproving looks, but oh man. Inb4 one of them declares how illogical this is and walks out.
My icon brings all the minibots to the yard
Date: 2010-07-14 12:02 am (UTC)I honestly don't know where I get my Prowl from. I just do what feels right. D: He is cool and logical, but he has emotions too. It's just that he's able to put them aside in favor of doing what's appropriate. I wouldn't want to see him angry, though.
Oh god I know, they're both giving me the most horrible "I wish you would realize how stupid that is and DIE" looks. Come onnnn guys, don't you want to... no? Just a little? Surely you can appreciate each other's logic. Maybe play a game of chess. And then set a handicap by becoming inebriated. oh come onnnn stop giving me that look it's a great idea ;_;
unf unf <3 /not staring, no not at all
Date: 2010-07-14 01:30 am (UTC)And I mean, that was kinda the point where Sideswipe was being a dorkface. |D Sunny would have had jealousy issues of course, but it sort of affected him more that he was just shut out from his twin for so long. .___. Like, he thought he'd done something horribly wrong, or that Sideswipe was starting to cast him aside because he was just a stressor on him. (Like at one point, Sideswipe had teased Prowl, but part of the conversation before that had given him this elation and so he had this gloriously happy look on his face as he walked down the hall... and ran into Sunstreaker. Later on, Sunstreaker was all "...is it because I bring you down? I just want you to smile like that because of me" ;____; SO MUCH EMO god. I seriously broke down in tears several times writing Sunstreaker's posts, it was just. ;___; GAH.) Oh man. It was awful. In a completely wonderful way. I might see if my partner will be okay with me posting the logs somewhere if her identity is kept anonymous. |'D
Ahaha well, it's sort of... I admire those portrayals. |D So I don't try to copy them, but sort of... emulate with my own style? Which is admittedly sort of based in Spock, rofl. Oh Spock is so much fun to write too. |D hee.
Pff oh god, that's it exactly. I have the mental image of their chess match being a never-ending stalemate. And they'd be far too concentrated on each other to even get towards sexytimes. ....Unless somehow they found THAT appealing and... |D Shit, I don't even know, lmao.
When a bot walks in with an itty bitty frame and a racing stripe in your face
Date: 2010-07-14 01:42 am (UTC)Ahhhh poor Sunstreaker D: My heart is breaking for him just hearing about it. I'd totally read those logs and man, I don't even do RP, I don't usually like reading logs. Poor Sunstreaker :<
Yeah, I kind of absorb parts of other people's writing too - I mean, that's what writers DO. As long as I'm using it to develop my own style and ideas rather than outright coping, it's cool. I'm pretty sure my Ratchet can be pinpointed down to just a few fanfic authors. Like that one, what's it called, Burying the Hatchet? I think that's it. I like that Ratchet a lot.
I HAVE IT. A logic war. The just start trading logical statements, reasoning out to a conclusion, and it totally turns them on. HA HA HA, ROBOTS IN MY HEAD, YOU CAN'T DENY THIS SCENARIO. Sadly I am not smart enough to write it. WOE.
Re: When a bot walks in with an itty bitty frame and a racing stripe in your face
Date: 2010-07-14 01:50 am (UTC)Oh god, the posts were just terrible. >: And god, the moody bastard lurked in the back of my head sometimes and made ME moody. 8| Just. I don't even. What. And lol, I get irritated when people just post up logs straight from the log file |D Without taking out any of the "username [timestamp]:" shit. Nooo if I ever posted logs I'd just extract everything so it would read as much like story format as possible. .___. But I digress. I'm used to sharing my logs among friends. |D So some of them know the extreme emo I'm talking about, but hahaa.
Lolol, yeah, true. I guess I'm just paranoid and harshly critical of myself. |D And I think... I've heard of that story, but I never read it. Hahaha, I'm horrible about fanfiction, really. I hardly ever read it.
OH GOD YES. I am also not smart enough to write it but FFFF do want. Goddaaaamn. >:
I'm just getting silly with these comment titles now
Date: 2010-07-14 02:25 am (UTC)Ah, Sunstreaker is always in my head these days. Whenever I'm upset about something, he understands, and then we write fic to feel better, so I guess that's something. I write a lot of angsty comfort-fic for him. He needs it. :(
Oh man, RP logs turned into fic are usually so dreadful. You can almost always tell - shifting POV, plus that telltale staggering of events where a player will do two things, and then the next player responds to both even though their response would preclude the second thing from happening, etc. I don't mind if like, a fic is inspired by RP, but I'd honestly rather read a straight-up log than one badly turned into a vague story.
Awww don't be mean to yourself. :( Grow as a writer! Growwww! Nothing wrong with getting inspiration and thinking "yess, that's perfect, that's just how I like that character." Anyway, I know some people who don't really read fanfic... It honestly baffles me. I go a little mad if I don't have anything to read. Constantly, constantly reading fic. When I started out in TF, I went through delicious and read EVERYTHING that had been tagged as Transformers fanfic. Everything. I should do up another rec list...
...I am so tempted to try anyway. I could base it on Galileo's Conversations, maybe, but what would they talk about... This requires planning. A great deal of planning. Hmm.
Silly comment titles just add to a silly comment ♥
Date: 2010-07-15 02:24 am (UTC)He... usually ignores me. |D Like, he's there, but he likes to pretend I don't exist ahaha. Probably because I'm just as derpy as his brother. :B But when he does want something, I sure as hell better fork it over, or suffer terrible consequences. (This is kind of like my old cat's mentality, hahahaa)
Rofl well, if I was going to make an RP into a fic, I would edit the shit out of it for just that reason. I guess I'm just so used to sharing around rp logs among my friends that if I'm told beforehand "oh these are some logs I posted" it doesn't bother me so much, lol. I didn't mean like that, I meant it's just a bit easier to read at least for me that way. Also easier to keep the other player anonymous if s/he wishes.
Easily fixed with find and replace but eh. XDAhaha, it's not that I don't like reading... just somehow I haven't been reading as much as I used to anymore (which makes me sad :c) and fanfic has always been a strange beast for me. I love fanfic, but usually I don't read it unless it's rec'd or I've gone looking for something specific. Heh. /shrugs/ And lol well, I need a more positive self-attitude anyway. |D I've always had self worth/self esteem issues, and neither my school nor my mother helped. 9___9 But that crap aside, it's only recently that I can right away write something, and look at it and go "you know, I really like this." Used to take three months before I could even look at it again. Lol derp.
...Ahaha oh man. /sends planning vibes and that kind of thing~/

Date: 2010-07-12 04:05 pm (UTC)I am happy to accept the blame. XD
Prowl would never go for it - he'd never sleep with a subordinate. He'd also never sleep with a superior, for similar reasons. He'd also never sleep with a coworker. He's pretty much screwed.
Clearly the only option is to sleep with the enemy! No, wait, he would never do that, either. Poor Prowl. (It's a big problem in G1, really--you're stuck either screwing you someone you work with pretty directly, screwing the enemy, or screwing an alien. I tend to assume that the policies and customs in terms of fraternization are much looser than they would be if there were, you know, any better options, but still, it's a problem for someone like Prowl.)
no subject
Date: 2010-07-12 06:28 pm (UTC)Prowl is so totally boned. I mean, he's not ENTIRELY logical, he does have emotions, so he might actually fall in love (or lust) and just - refuse to do anything about it because it would be improper and potentially upset his ability to command effectively. I mean, he'd totally look the other way for like... everyone else, because they need the stress relief and closer bonds lead to a better fighting force, but for himself? Nope. Just not allowed. I think someone would have to confront him about it and work him out of that corner he got himself into. XD I usually get around it by, uh... ignoring it. Go me~
WHY DO I NOT HAVE A PROWL ICON
