Some more crystal basher stuff.
Domestic bashers have cleaner and more symmetrical patterning than their wild relatives, who often appear a bit more “ai generated”. Their tails are also “bushier” and are often held up high when content. Smaller breeds tend to be much more vibrant in color than larger breeds.
When a crystal basher is new, their bodies are not quite as tough as fully mature bashers, which allows mechs to carve designs into their armor. It’s a harmless process and allows keepers to easily identify their basher if they were to get lost or stolen (have fun trying that in the first place💀)

I finally downloaded a gif maker while taking screenshots (because why not, honestly) and i figured id try it out on my fav ep? (cause again why not?)
But like. Ratchet that’s so extra. you dont have to spin like that. you don’t.

If I did the math correctly, a Cybertronian befriending a human is like a human befriending a being that lives for less than a third of a 24-hour day.
I am NOT okay.
Average life expectancy of a Cybertronian, according to IDW: 8 million Earth years, give or take
Average life expectancy of a human: 80-ish years
One Cybertronian lifetime is 100,000x longer than one human lifetime.
One human lifetime (80 years) divided by that same 100,000 equals 0.0008 of one year.
0.0008 of one year is 7.008 hours.
Imagine caring about beings whose entire lifetimes occupy a mere SEVEN HOURS of your day.
This puts in perspective every dismissive comment made by any Cybertronian about humans.
And suddenly, every Cybertronian who’s formed a connection with a human in canon is so much more extraordinary to me.
