What An Interesting Observation - Tumblr Posts

Male betta fish flare their gills to intimidate and show dominance, right?

Guess what brilliant connection my TFP brain made. *cackles*

The difference is that Soundwave’s armor plates always look like they do and can’t be retracted, but close enough. They have the same effect as a betta’s flared gills.

Bonus: Soundwave was a gladiator, and the betta (aka Siamese fighting fish) is basically the gladiator of the pet fish world. I’m loving this way too much. 😆
