Gladiators Of Kaon - Word Art Excerpt

Gladiators of Kaon - Word Art excerpt

I have way too much fun writing Soundwave. He's such an interesting character.

Anyhow, I tried a thing and I was deeply entertained by it, so like the toddler I am inside I'm shoving it onto my blog to show off

*waves screenshot around and chews on a crayon*

(text transcription below the cut, though the cool part I wanted to show off is just that they're formatted like his face screen display)

Soundwave: asked to deliver communications in readable format.

Communications: 

There’s a pause. A pause long enough you have to wait for the next series of words to appear, and you can’t tell if he’s just taking that long to prepare it or if he has some other reason to hang up--

His screen goes blank, then new text appears, utterly filling his screen as you raise your optic ridges, and start reading.

Holy scrap.

Your cooling fans kick up a few notches, probably loud enough to draw attention, but no-one comments as you cover your mouth with a hand, speechless.

Rumble: says Lightshow is as nice as she is pretty. Rumble: has promised not to cause seismic tremors when Lightshow is present, out of consideration for Lightshow’s sensitive circuitry. Soundwave: highly doubts but is hopeful. Frenzy: says Lightshow is the coolest mech he’s met outside 

of the arena. Frenzy: says Lightshow

should accept job posting.

Personal addendum:

Apology: Issued.

Symbiotes: very

exciteable and

assertive.

Swindle: says

“Be back soon,

Mom.”

Soundwave:

Thinks Swindle

Is teasing.

Mostly.

Poll: Which would you prefer?

This may or may not be because I am sitting on my hands debating whether or not to pull the trigger on releasing any or some or all of my four current Transformers fanfics.

I wanna post so baaaad

but I keep finding things to tweak and edit and I suppose I might just be editing these documents until the day I die, I'm okay with that

but frag when do I post them

like sometimes I go back ten chapters and insert a tiny lil' detail that now plugs in a much later story thing or ties up a loose end or enforces some concept that was always there but I forgot or just didn't manage to portray correctly the first time.

The winning poll hope may or may not actually be the idea i go with, but this will help me brainstorm which ideas would be best received

I have drawing ideas for all of these alt modes 😆

aaaaAAAA: Author Struggle Bus

(If you don't want to see my personal posts, my tag for these is "#dat rambles")

Not me pulling at my hair smacking my forehead on the desk because I am well into the next chapters of Gladiators of Kaon; and I am unsure if my representations of the Precious Beans are accurate enough because confession I haven't actually watched all of G1 yet I've seen like 1 episode and a half and then I got distracted writing fanfiction and reading o o p s but the story floooooows

(author ramblings continue after the cut)

and now here I am with many chapters and it's adorable and I love it but also p a n i c because it's my first time writing them. I hope ya'll don't have specific expectations for characters because OPE I SORRY I AM JUST WRITING WHAT I SEE. And reading a lot of wiki pages. (Whoever does the captiosn for images on that site, oh my goodness, they are SO WITTY. I LOVE IT. Sarcasm, puns, sattire, my sides are hurting from how much i've laughed while reading up on transformers i've never actually heard of or met before and researching lore ideas to yoink for the world building of this story's universe and setting)

I have read a stupid amount of wiki pages.

still though

it's like

my favorite chapter rn because ADORABLE SPARKLINGS UGH EEEEEEE and it's so friggin' cute I can't stand it (comfy chair and blanket acquired, one parrot loose and one happily eating noms \o/). I hope it goes over well but if not oh well

writing Soundwave when he's not in Perfect Composure Mode is an entertaining and endearing experience.

CHAPTER DROP: Leaking Spark, Ch 8

I might be rushing just a tiny bit but I finished an editing pass and a chapter cut today, so boop, here's a new release!
