I FIGURED IT OUT! I FIGURED IT ALL OUT!

What, you say?

EVERYTHING! WHY EVERYTHING SUCKS What happened to Skyfire in G1! He just kinda fades out, right, he has his episode in the spotlight and then he's an overly cheerful taxi until Omega Supreme shows up and then he's just - not there any more. Okay so this is how it goes.

Skyfire joins the Autobots. But he was a Decepticon, and close to Starscream, and you don't really trust someone like that. And he's never been a social guy and he doesn't quite know how to reach through that kind of distance, though he tries. Have you noticed that half the time when they're looking for him, he's out flying around? (haha especially in the episode where everyone turns evil.) He does that, he goes out and flies and angsts, because it's better than being trapped inside the Ark with the Autobots and it's WAY better than being trapped with the Decepticons. But he feels he has a responsibility to the Autobots still. So he stays.

And then Omega Supreme comes, and they don't need him anymore, and he leaves. He just flies away.

LOOK I APPLIED LOGIC TO THE WRITERS FORGETTING HE EXISTED :D I'M SO EXCITED

Name a character and I'll tell you four facts about them from my own personal headcanon. You can ask me in general for a certain continuity or you can ask specifically about a certain fic verse I've written. Name as many characters as you want.

I'm good for Transformers, clearly, but also Final Fantasy 7 and... no, that's really it. I've lost all interest in my prior fandoms. ASK AWAY~

Oh I do love Blurr. :3 I shall assume TFA.

1. He's Elite Guard for a reason. He's damn good at his job and he has never, ever failed a mission. He is all work and almost no play and he is a damn sight older and more mature than most people write him.

2. He's sharp as a tack. Not because he's significantly smarter than average, but because he thinks even faster than he moves and his mind is always working.

3. He doesn't carry weapons. Any weapons. All he carries are stasis cuffs. It's not just that he's that damn good - it's because his job is to not engage. He observes, intercepts, and reports back when he can. He doesn't get noticed. And there is nothing he hates more than having to blow a perfectly good cover because of some dipstick, but he knows when to pull out.

4. It really, really bothers him when people interrupt him, ignore him, make him repeat himself, or ask him to talk slower. He gets treated like he's stupid just because he talks too fast for them to understand. It makes his job easier when others underestimate him, but it still pisses him off.

[personal profile] spacehussy is really the Blurr of us, I want her to do this meme so I can ask for Blurr. :3 Blurr Blurr Blurr. He's so awesome. I'd really like to see some fic for him where he actually gets to be as badass as he is in the show instead of a weeping child. I want fic where he can make his own decisions and stand up to Shockwave and just - be awesome. Because he is. XD

Yesss Blurr is kickass. ♥ I'm not entirely sure where my Blurr falls, hahaha. |D He pretty much got worked on psychologically from the beginning by Longarm and then all out mindfuck later on. Hmm. He was perfectly content to follow Shockwave (...after a while XD), but he did also pretty much stand up and prove himself to Megatron... and sort of spat in Starscream's face when the Seeker kept getting too close/interested for his (or Shockwave's, HI POSSESSIVENESS) comfort. |D That was pretty much fun to write, but screechy pissed off Starscream is amazing in his own right. Hahaha. But yes, badass Blurr. We need more of. ♥

Our Blurr, in Disassembled-verse, goes through the usual "taken by Shockwave blah blah" bit... And he does get broken... But he starts out strong, and if Shockwave had actually been interested in interrogating him, he wouldn't have broken. But things happened and he did and even after that, he keeps Shockwave on his toes. He's supposedly Shockwave's possession but he keeps pushing, taking charge and being the aggressor. At the very, very end, after centuries and centuries, Blurr kind of steps in at Shockwave's side and gets to boss around the other Deceptions, with only very few exceptions. It's so hot. XD

BLURR: BADASS. HELL YEAH.
