Reminder that you are valid, you are loved, and there is always somebody waiting for you. There is always somebody who would miss you.

You deserve to be loved. Even if you think there's nobody to love you, there is.

Relax your shoulders and unclench your jaw. Take a deep breath and get something to eat/drink. You deserve it. You deserve to eat, drink, and relax. You don't need to earn those rights - you have them as a human being already.

If you've been working for a while, take a break. Even just five minutes of staring at the wall to reset your brain is good. Take care of yourself.

Good luck, friends <3

Just to be clear, we can all agree that Raf is absolutely going to go through Gifted Kid Burnout Syndrome in the next 2 years, right? Like- Potentially neurodivergent, super smart kid who wants attention from his family. PRIME (pun intended) EXAMPLE OF A KID WHO GOES THROUGHT GIFTED KID BURNOUT.

I'm going to hunt down fics of this

Cody, walking into the base: Hey guys, come meet my new friend!

Megatron: Greetings.

Tmnt 2012

I love how in the episode A Foot Too Big, Leo isn't shocked or stunned that Bigfoot exists, she's mad Donnie, Mikey, and Raph brought her into the house.

Leo doesn't care that Bigfoot exists, she just doesn't want to have to vacuum up the fur.

Author recommendation because not enough of their books get recognized :( (as far as I know, at least)

Kenneth Oppel!! Author of Silverwing and Airborne, they have also written the (somewhat?) Short horror book The Nest, as well as The Overthrow trilogy.

Personally, I am in LOVE with The Overthrow, and it has consumed my brain for a while. Highly recommend this author!!

Octonauts Headcanons because they consume my brain (sleep edition)

Shellington cannot sleep if he isn't holding something, usually a plush toy or his own paw.

Dashi takes a while to get comfortable, tossing and turning for up to an hour.

Captain Barnacles has a special cooling blanket because polar bear.

The vegimals will routinely sleep in one big pile of the greenhouse floor for no apparent reason.

When stressed, Peso will make a nest out of blankets and pillows to sleep in.

Kwazii will knead his pillow before he goes to bed.

Tweak is a very active sleeper. She's a sleep-talker and -walker.

Inkling will occasionally fall asleep in the library. His little ear things will also twitch if you touch them.

I know it's not entirely accurate, but...

Can we get Raf acting like demon spawn sometimes? The dude's twelve, he's probably not that mature, right? I imagine there are rare occasions where he will actively encourage Miko's less dangerous stunts (jumping from concerning high places, eating ungodly food combinations, etc.) simply because he can.

I mean really, he's Miko's second Voice of Reason™? Nuh uh. He will absolutely encourage her to try and bug out a brand new video game.

Usually he's chill, but sometimes.

Sometimes.

Not to mention, he's got a lot of siblings, and you know they absolutely do that to each other. If anything, Raf fueling the chaos should be seen as a sign of respect. He trusts you enough to act as a harbinger of chaos.

He's an almost teenage boy, he's allowed to be a chaos bringer every once and a while, no?

Maybe that's just me

okay okay okay

Writing idea

We all know that Bots live MUCH longer than humans, and we all know watching the Burnses die over the years would hit the Rescue Bots hard. They love there little pals, after all.

But do you know what would hurt more?

Watching them forget everything.

So, my idea: an angst fic of Chief Burns with dementia. He's forgetting everything. It hurts everybody because they all know he'll forget them too.

But it really hurts the Bots. Human lifespans are already so short, and watching the human they know slip away from them while still being there hurts. They knew they'd lose Chief eventually, but not this soon, not like this... They already have so little time together, and it feels like it's being cut short when the first human they met forgets their names, their faces, who they are...

Rescue Bots Academy headcanons (with a touch of angst)

Hotshot has a (rather poorly) hidden inferiority complex

Heatwave unintentionally adopted Hotshot

Neither has any idea how it happened, Hotshot just became Heatwave's son one day

Blurr has visited the Academy at some point, and he was both glad and upset at how Heatwave has changed

On the one hand, he's happy the recruits and especially Hotshot are getting a good mentor,

But on the other, he's upset that he never got that version of Heatwave, and sometimes he wonders if it's his own fault

Grimlock treats Dinomode Hoist like a dog treats its puppy

Hoist has been scruffed on several occasions

Medix loves bats

Even before the incident with Mr. Flappy, he collected books about bats and loved watching documentaries about them

Autistic Medix, Wedge, and Hoist

ADHD Whirl and Hotshot

None of the recruits have any idea their teachers (except Heatwave) have more than one alt mode

Whirl is a scraplet colony, specifically the one Whirl Sr. Adopted in MTMTE

Whirl Jr. aroace

Colonies of metal-eating pests don't have much interest in romance, as it turns out

Ratchet changed for the better when he found out about Medix

While he is no longer afraid of dinobots, Hoist still finds actual dinosaurs a bit unnerving

This probably has to do with them being organic

While training to use a hose, Hotshot nearly passed out. Several times.

While bats are his favorite, Medix loves most types of animals

The only exception to this is deep-sea creatures

He does not understand them and he does not want to understand them

Wedge has had a brother

The way Medix's family found out he could magnetize was by finding him on the ceiling

Whirl Jr, in her most basic state, looks like a bot-shaped scraplet, with a silver body, solid blue optics, and thin limbs

A lot of bots find this appearance unnerving

Does anybody know of songs that can be/are about an aroace person and their aroace-ness? Specifically being totally chill about it. Not a pride song, but more an 'I don't get it, but whatever floats your boat I guess' song. Kinda like the song Stupid With Love but just the part about being into math instead of love.

Songs that have an "oh, you have a partner? That's cool, I have a houseplant named Deborah" vibe If that makes sense at all

I wanna make a character playlist

More Rescue Bots Academy headcanons (this time with extra angst)

Wedge has a twin/splitspark named Axle, who Wedge both misses and despises at the same time

When he was younger, Medix was considered a 'hard-to-handle' child

In reality, he had undiagnosed Autism and didn't do well with others

As of now, he is currently taking medication for it (rescue work gets overstimulating very fast), though it took several prescriptions to find one that didn't kill his personality

Hoist and Whirl are absolute besties

Hotshot was bullied as a kid, which gave him a major inferiority complex

He stopped getting bullied shortly after joining his Cube team, but any insult still hurts him

Whirl feels like an absolute fraud whenever somebody says she's a good rescue bot because she's a scraplet colony pretending to be a bot

She knows it's for her own safety, but she still feels terrible about it

There have been times where late at night, Hoist will get scared by his own reflection if he's in dinomode

He says he's not scared anymore, but he's a little jumpy

Hotshot and the rest of his Cube team have flame designs painted on their heels because they think they're cool

Medix has spent countless hours trying to understand why so many bots don't seem to like him - he does what he's supposed to, so why doesn't anybody want to be around him?

Whirl is almost always hungry because she won't eat metal

It isn't necessary for her to survive, so she refuses to indulge her scraplet mind, but Primus, does it leave her hungry

Wedge gets severe imposter syndrome sometimes

Hoist can be pretty anxious sometimes, especially when he feels like he's already inconveniencing people

Medix listens to hyperpop

It's just a Little Nightmares podcast, but still
