@sephirose asked for Guardian wedding things so here we go! Now, I'd say this is hc I made up for WatM universe so it's not canon or anything but!

1. Bride and groom can be used as terms but not always. The two sides of the wedding will have specific terms but I haven't polished them yet.

2. Left side/bride side is escorted to be "given away" by their Vanguard. It's up to the couple as to who is given away.

3. If it's a bride, her first dance is not with her new husband, but instead with her brides maids who are expected to torment the new groom through the night before finally allowing him a dance with his bride. Again, if traditional bride and groom roles are not used, it's still up to the couple as to who is on what end of this traditional.

4. Brides can use a hair style when walking down the aisle that has what is called a favor woven in. This favor is usually a scrap of cloth or small scarf that is then given to the maid of honor after the ceremony as she and the other bridesmaids change her hair style and dress for the reception. The maid of honor is to give the favor to a lover as a proposal whenever they wish. This is tweaked depending on the couple. This replaces the bouquets throwing in weddings of our era.

5. Both sides of the wedding party wear outfits and armor in the colors of their bride/grooms class. Example: The groom in a Titan so his wedding party and himself wear red and white.

Florence Castle's HEROES OF CYBERTRON - Ep. 05: ELITA ONE

PUNTATA 5: ELITA ONE, la robot guerriera per eccellenza

Fra le primissime Fembot ad apparire nell’universo dei Transformers, la più famosa è certamente ELITA ONE, che esordisce nella storica puntata Alla Ricerca di Alpha Trion come capo della resistenza Autobot contro i Decepticon su Cybertron, dopo che Optimus Prime e Megatron partirono dal pianeta per finire sulla Terra. Nel vecchio doppiaggio italiano la chiamavamo “Elita Uno”, ignorando del tutto l’etimologia effettiva del nome. Esso, infatti, rispecchia quello della sua controparte maschile sia nella pronuncia sia nel significato di “ottimo” e “primo”; più specificamente, “Elita” è un derivato di “elite”, a sua volta dal latino electa, che vuol dire “colui/colei che è stato scelto/a”. Quindi, potremmo dedurre che il nome di questa Fembot è traducibile in “La Prescelta”.

Nome a parte, ciò che ha reso famosa Elita One nella G1 (oltre a essere leader delle Femmine Autobot e una Bot che “non conosce la paura”), è il suo legame affettivo, quasi al limite del sentimentale, con Optimus Prime, nonostante tale scelta rischi di cadere nella trappola dell’incesto. Come i fan di vecchia data sanno, infatti, nell’episodio della Stagione 2 L’Alba della Guerra i due (al secolo Ariel e Orion Pax, rispettivamente) furono ricostruiti dall’anziano Alpha Trion utilizzando pressoché le stesse “componenti genetiche”, come se i due fossero fratelli ante litteram. I più, al massimo, potrebbero notare un’analogia nella mitologia antica, in quanto anche Zeus ed Era sono sì fratelli ma comunque coniugi e sovrani dell’Olimpo.

***

Sfortunatamente, Elita One non conserva altre controparti omonime all’infuori della “Movie” e della breve ma intensa apparizione in Animated. Nel primo caso, è attiva più nei fumetti che nel film dove effettivamente il personaggio debutta (il secondo della saga, La Vendetta del Caduto del 2009) e, estetici omaggi G1 sul cartaceo a parte, di certo la conosciamo meglio come la motocicletta viola “sorella maggiore di Arcee e Chromia e uno degli ufficiali più stretti di Optimus Prime” del Movie-verso di Michael Bay. La versione Animated del personaggio, invece, ha l’aspetto della forma iniziale di Elita One, cioè Ariel, di cui riconosciamo la caratteristica “coda di cavallo”. Lo schema cromatico utilizzato qui è però verde acquamarina e giallo – ben diverso dal rosa e bianco del personaggio G1. Sempre per strizzare l’occhio al G1, anche questa Elita One ha un potere speciale, sebbene di natura ben diversa: “prendere in prestito” e riprodurre fedelmente le abilità altrui, il che ricorda Rogue dei supereroi mutanti X-Men della Marvel. Inoltre, secondo quanto detto da Derrick J. Wyatt, il suo altmode avrebbe dovuto essere una futuristica auto Cybertroniana (ennesima citazione dell’omo-nima G1), se almeno si fosse salvata in tempo dalla mutazione biosintetica che di lì a poco l’avrebbe trasformata in Blackarachnia (di quest’ultima parleremo in una puntata apposita).

Il suo recente ritorno, almeno tra le pagine della IDW nella saga dedicata a Windblade, la riporta ad assumere lo stesso look aggiornato e migliorato della “vecchia” G1, molto rosa e bianca ma con una caratterizzazione molto diversa all’originale, poiché in questo universo viene ritratta come una spietata tiranna e carceriera, decisamente meno femminile e dolce. Per quanto riguarda le apparizioni su schermo, invece, segnaliamo la trilogia War for Cybertron, nuova serie in onda su Netflix che ripercorre la guerra sul pianeta natale dei Transformers in salsa G1-esca e in versione quasi integrale – e quindi con un sapore completamente diverso da quello a cui eravamo abituati dai videogiochi Activision/High Moon Studios. Eccola di nuovo come capitana della Resistenza Autobot e affiancata dalla storica socia Chromia, con l’assetto vintage un po’ stilizzato e un’inedita livrea sul rosso magari per distinguerla meglio da Arcee, che anche lei ha il rosa come colore predominante.

***

Ancor più infelice è il destino del personaggio nelle vesti di modellino Transformer. Per Elita One, infatti, non è mai stata prodotta alcuna figure che la rappresenti in nessuna iterazione conosciuta, neanche un modellino G1 della stessa. A omaggiare tale versione, semmai, è stato il Deluxe della linea Cybertron uscito esclusivamente per la BotCondel 2009, ma era solo un repaintdella Decepticon Thunderblast – una scelta, tutto sommato, non errata, data la forma della testa di quest’ultima molto reminiscente a quella dell’Elita One originale.

Anche la linea Movie le è stata particolarmente ostile: la Hasbro, all’epoca della linea legata al secondo film della saga, aveva più volte annunciato la presenza di questa Fembot (in classe Deluxe) assieme alle sue sorelle in modo che i fan potessero finalmente cercare di riprodurre il fantomatico Combiner che le tre motociclette avrebbero dovuto formare nella pellicola – una scena poi tagliata per ragioni tuttora sconosciute. Altrettanto ignoto è, invece, l’esclusione di Elita dalla linea principale, scatenando l’indignazione generale da parte dei fan... finché l’azienda l’ha “resuscitata” nel 2010 come repaint del Deluxe Chromia, anche se il risultato finale non soddisfaceva per nulla i più puristi, neanche la versione giapponese Takara con i colori più fedeli alla controparte cinematografica. Solo il set esclusivo dei negozi Target che la vede insieme alle altre due moto contro Sideways ridipinto ad hoc, e la figure inclusa assieme a Skids nella linea Dark of the Moon: Human Alliance del 2011 hanno in parte aggiustato il tiro. Una piccola luce in fondo al tunnel inizia a intravedersi grazie all’arrivo dei Studio Series, e in questo caso Elita One è venduta insieme alle sue sorelle moto come un trio in classe Legion, e “finalmente” col design fedele alla controparte Movie. Certo, la modalità Combiner è ancora fan-made, ma è rassicurante avere tra le mani un modellino scolpito come dovrebbe essere, seppur con dieci anni di ritardo!

Fino a oggi, per l’iconica leader delle Femmine Autobot non esisteva un effettivo modellino che la ritragga simile alla G1 o, volendo, una versione migliorata e moderna di quest’ultima. A parte l’ennesimo omaggio come carta collezionabile nel vecchio videogioco TRANSFORMERS: Legends per dispositivi mobili, in cui la si vede sì col suo look originale, ma con l’altmode di motocicletta col quale è diventata famosa (o famigerata, che dir si voglia) nella saga cinematografica di Michael Bay. Poi, finalmente, la macro-famiglia Generations ci propone non uno ma due bei modelli, un Voyager da Power of the Primes e un Deluxe da War for Cybertron: Earthrise. Purtroppo non sono stampi originali ma remold pesanti di personaggi preesistenti, ovvero quel mostro di Starscream da una parte e un’accettabile Arcee dall’altra... il che ha senso, poiché negli anni Ottanta Elita One aveva l’altmode di una quattroruote Cybertroniana. Rossa e bianca, ma pur sempre nostalgica.

***

CONCLUSIONE

Per quanto relativamente ancora rare, la scelta di proporci anche dei TF femminili allarga la categoria di utenza dei fan, avvicinando il franchise sempre più alla sempre più ambita parità di genere. Non siamo più portati a vedere i robottoni come prodotti esclusivamente per ragazzi, e questo ha anche ampliato il nostro modo di vedere il loro universo. Elita One è stata la capostipite, insieme alle sue colleghe, e poi vedremo l'arrivo di Arcee nel film dell'86... insomma, anche Cybertron assomiglia sempre più alla nostra Terra. Il che è un bene, secondo me.

Arrivederci alla prossima puntata! 😘

Movie SonAmyyy

I DON’T KNOW WHAT I WANT FROM MOVIE SONAMY I LOVE EVERYTHING I’VE BEEN SEEING

reverse sonamy:

THIS IS SO CUTE. like. if theres any sonic to be simping over amy it would be movie sonic. and goshhhhh i am SO here for it. i still want amy to have a crush on sonic but it’d be too endearing to have the movie focus on sonic being absolutely confused by these new emotions

this animatic perfectly encapsulates this

oblivious sonic and painfully in love amy:

if you know me at all you’ll know that one of my favorite things about amy is her massive crush on sonic AND ITS THE CUTEST THING IN THE WORLD I WANNA WATCH HER FALL IN LOVE

maybe this is just my excuse to share all the wonderful fan content ive seen (also this was made but one of my wonderful moots pls check her stuff out)

amy and sonic straight up beefing:

IDK THIS IS ALSO VERY ENTERTAINING IMAGINE THEYRE JUST BICKERING 24/7 AND EVERYONE IN THE HOUSE IS JUST DONE WITH THEM

old married couple and theyve just met be fr

it’d feel a lot like boom sonamy which i cant say is my preferred take but would still be fun to watch

sonic tryna be cool:

I mean i don’t think i have to elaborate but he’d be using cheesy pick up lines from the internet frfr

comedy gold right there

YALL IDK IM JSUT SO EXCITED DROP ANY DIFF TAKES IN THE REPLIES OR REBLOGS ID LOVE TO SEE AND I CANT DECIDE WHAT I WANT WHICH I GUESS IS A GOOD THING BC ILL BE HAPPY WITH EITHER

My personal hc is that Movie!Sonic is terrible at identifying romantic relationships.

Like, he doesn't understand romance in general at all. Sonic spent ten years without talking to anyone and most of his references come from pop culture, which doesn't have many good models for healthy relationships, let's be honest. He saw in the movies that romance is big gestures, passions and big kisses and stuffs.

So when he see functional and more normal-day-life couples, he thinks they're just friends.

He thought Maddie and Tom were housemates until the day he saw them kissing on their wedding anniversary.

And this goes along with another hc of mine that he doesn't identify the crush he has for Amy because instead of the adrenaline and the fast-beating heart that he sees being described, what he feels for Amy makes him feel... calm. At peace.

And he can't connect the dots.

Because I’m a week late on Watermelon Exo, todays marchofrobots  drawing is a little Destiny-FullMetal Alchemist crossover! Cayde/Amanda playing the roles of Ed/Winry, although I suspect this is probably actually their relationship in Destiny.

HC #4: 13 Primes

Alchemist Prime: The Elements.

Amalgamous Prime: The Transformation.

Quintus Prime: The Dreamer.

Solus Prime: The Forger.

Megatronus Prime: The Warrior.

Liege Maximo: The Manipulator.

Optimus Prime: The Visionary.

Prima:

He embodies the light, the order and the good. Similar to Primus. However, over the millennia, he will always weaken and almost fall into darkness. It goes so far that he soon becomes paranoid of everything that looks evil and exacerbates the laws of Cybertron. Alone through the paranoia, he went so far as to let the Predacons die out, at the time when Cybertron was deadly to every living being through massive sunbeams.

He became the leader of civilization, but what became of him is hardly known. Many say he was killed when his paranoia became too strong. Others say he left Cybertron and never returned. The truth, however, is that he currently lives between the dimensions in a palace of crystals and light that his brother, the timekeeper, once had him build.

Vector Prime:

He is the time and one of the most powerful among the Primes. He is known as the keeper of space and time. He also has a rich arsenal of weapons, which he will also use in combat. However, you can only see him with 2 weapons, the Time Sword and the Dimensional Sword. In addition, he has the capability of phase shifting. He can also move his portals (similar to Dr. Strange Scene in Thor 3, Ragnarok). He himself lives outside the time stream in absolute isolation. In the beginning, however, he lived among his siblings until the Prime War broke out. After that, his life changed and he experienced for the first time suffering and sorrow. His secret love was taken by force, which he still secretly mourns today. Due to an accident he was banished by his eldest brother, which forced him to leave Cybertron. On one of Cybertron’s moons, he set up a dimension pocket that was out of the time stream and lived in it from then on. Through this extreme isolation, he lost more and more compassion for others and he became emotionally dull and aloof. Later, Primus revealed to him that he himself was the universe, by his abilities he possessed a power that could destroy the universe itself, whereby they were sealed by Primus for safety’s sake.

Alpha Trion:

He is the Timekeeper’s Twin Spark and represents the History. Not only from Cybertron, but also from the universe. In his Quill, a device in which all the historical data is collected, there are data that nobody knows; Except for himself. Through the timekeeper, he learns much, even from other universes and this data he collects all. In Iacon, where he lived, he set up several data centers to record and store all historical events, including those that are yet to take place. So it may be that even the history of the emergence of many universes are stored in Iacon. There is also other data, data about languages, culture, other species and much more.

The hidden ability of Alpha Trion is a very powerful one, which he can only use with the help of Micronus Prime and Vector Prime, because they can fundamentally change everything. He has the power to rewrite the history of the universe so that certain things never happened. This ability is used only in the most extreme emergencies and fortunately only happened once.

Onyx Prime:

He represents the nature of Cybertron. The flora and fauna. He speaks all animal languages, takes care of fauna and flora and can make exact predictions through his mask, whether past, present or future. Through his animal body, he has the opportunity to move wild and unrestrained. He is also good at flying. After the fight against his siblings, he was so badly damaged that he had to return to the Allspark.

Nexus Prime:

He is the giant of the Primes and later became a combiner. He was once cut into 5 parts by Vector Prime, which made him a combiner. The 5 pieces were formed in 5 Transformers, who had the task to protect access to the dimension pocket of Vector Prime. Over time, however, they forgot their task and returned to Cybertron, where they lived there as normal Transformers. [more information will be added later.]

Micronus Prime:

He is the first Minicon and thus their leader. He was also the best friend of Nexus Prime. They often traveled with Amalgamous and Onyx Prime, where Micronus liked to sit on his shoulders. His ability is to expand and strengthen the skills of his siblings. For example, at Optimus he may increase the ability to reactivate Primus or at Alpha Trion, the ability to transcribe history. [more information will be added later.]

Alchemist Prime:

He is the scientist and manipulator of the elements. He controls them all. Earth, water, fire, wind and also ether. Mainly he prefers to work with fire and ice. Its two wide arms allow you to influence the elements and shape the materials as you need them. Alchemist is the patron of many ancient ancient buildings on Cybertron. He also has his hands on Vector Sigma and has been the main sponsor of Amalgamous, Vector and Alpha. The disadvantage with Alchemist is that he consumes tons of energon by manipulating the elements, so you see him mostly in the area with a Energon drink in his hand. Now he is dependent on the Rarified Energon, the strongest form of the energon. Due to this addiction, he often seems clumsy, confused or oh drunk. It often happened that with his favorite elements he involuntarily harassed other bots by accidentally setting them on fire or freezing them up. Depending on which arm touched the Transformer. What has become of him is unknown to anyone.

Amalgamous Prime:

He is the transformation and the first carrier of a T-Cog, the organ what the Transformers need for their transformations. Amalgamous can transform into whatever he wants and try new things every day. Alone through this ability, he often tends to play his siblings some pranks. Only rarely do these pranks go down well. He is also the inventor of the following generations of T-Cogs, which he invented, but never really built. [more information will be added later.]

Quintus Prime:

He is the dreamer and creator of the Quintessons. This Prime tends to live out his fantasy often and to invent new things again and again. The greatest achievement was the said Quintessons, which later started and lost a war with the people of Cybertron. Quintus himself was later destroyed by the Quintessons himself. [more information will be added later.]

Solus Prime:

She is the Forger and the creator of all the weapons the Primes use. Her works are, for example, the Star Saber of Prima, the Requiem Blaster by Megatronus or the two swords of Vector Prime. In addition, she also worked on the quill, although little, but her hammer was very useful for the rest of the construction. She fell in love with her own brother Megatronus Prime, which kept her for several millennia. Unfortunately, Prima came behind her secret and disapproved of this connection. She was unclean and had to quit. Based on Prima’s testimony, she argued with her eldest brother over and over again and often retires to her smithy. There she was often visited by her other siblings. Later, she was murdered by her own lover, causing the Primes War to break out. She is also the founder of civilization on Caminus and is worshiped there as a goddess.

Megatronus Prime:

He is the one who is also known as the fallen. He stands for the fight and for the war. He was the warrior. However, he can easily be misled for evil and darkness. He hates Prima, but he coveted Vector and Optimus for their powers. Although physically united with Solus, he was also inclined to associate with others of his siblings. So far, he has had little success. During the fight against Unicron, he was briefly obsessed by this and shot Vector Prime, so that his spark could only be saved by a quick intervention of Amalgamous, Alpha and Optimus. From this day on, the quarrel between him and Prima deepened, as his older brother hardly ever trusted him anymore. The connection between him and Solus did not make it any better, but made it worse. Over time, As time passed, he often succumbed to Optimus, trying to seduce him again and again, after the fight against Unicron his desire grew even bigger. But this difference of Megatronus brought him completely down, although here Liege Maximo had more of his fingers in the game, but he was known as the favor in the story. Especially after the murder of Solus Prime.

Liege Maximo:

Liege Maximo, the manipulator or rather the speaker. He is known for his gift of words and language. Much is not known about him, only that he was responsible for the fact that Megatronus was completely known as the Fallen and made him into a rage. He was also later murdered by him. [more information will be added later.]

Optimus Prime:

He is the visionary. The one who was more like Primus than any other Prime. He understood the way of life and where it should lead. He is the one who always reminded the Primes of what they were created for. Due to his great resemblance to Primus and the ability to connect with him, he was desirous and often tempted by Megatronus, whom he always vehemently resisted. He was later used as a lure for Unicron and learned even the art of healing to Amalgamous to assist if one of the Primes be injured dangerous. After fighting Unicron and the Primes War, he voluntarily joined forces with the Allspark and was later reborn as Orion Pax. Alpha Trion knew this and took care of him. By electing the High Council for the new Prime Orion Pax became Optimus Prime. However, he gained his memories of his previous live, only at the second merger with the Allspark.

Finally ready! One day for this post! I can’t more. I need a break. Dx
