Did your cousin lose him...or is Gwumpy hiding?

The blanket fort was taken down. If anyone's hiding, it's Ratchet and Strongarm and all them.

So you're telling me I have 11 pages of story to catch up on?

...can't you just give me a summary of what's happened already?

It's pretty simple, won't take that long to catch up. And besides, it's not like every single post is one of the photocomics. Power through it, man!

Oh, hi! Can't take a little reading?

The beginning was just random pics that I started to take, then I threw in storylines here and there... Yeah, what Sigma said. You kinda just gotta read through it. In my mind, totally worth it.

Bumblebee and Sideswipe don't like getting up early very often, but when they do it's always to watch a certain show.

...They rarely listen to the "don't try this at home" warnings.


Unh...


What the hell-


Ow. Owowowowow. Hurts to move.


Okay, let's - ow - try this again...


Alright. Alright, I'm good. I'm alive, so... yeah, I'm good. Last thing I remember is target practice...


I can stand, good... Okay, Rewind, time to stop talking to yourself...


...and find out where everyone else is.

Also, quick question, do you guys prefer the pictures from my phone or camera? I really want to stop switching back and forth...

I'd say phone just to be rid of the date stamps, but...not really sure. Could you take some pics of the same scenes with both, for comparisons?

IGNORE THIS POST I DON'T HAVE THE IMAGES FOR IT ANYMORE

Sigma Magnus wrote:I'd say phone just to be rid of the date stamps, but...not really sure. Could you take some pics of the same scenes with both, for comparisons?

Sure thing. Here:
Phone (Ratbat):

Pros: No date stamp, high-quality images (as long as I'm not shaky), long battery life
Cons: Harder for me to handle (having touchscreen and such), larger aspect ratio, hates dark images

Camera (Spectro):

Pros: Smaller aspect ratio, better zoom quality, SO much easier to move the pictures to Ravage
Cons: Date stamp, loses battery life quickly, hates dark images

That help?

Well, if you're not worried about how fuzzy the images are (with me, I want my pics to be super-sharp), go with Spectro.

It's not so much quality that I'm extremely interested in, it's more accessibility. Ratbat I can just plug into the wall while Spectro I have to go out to the garage, grab two fresh AA rechargeables, slip the previous two back into the charger, and repeat every week and a half. But I'm more concerned with my readers' opinions over it all. And Ratbat or Spectro, pictures will still be blurry cuz I'm about as shaky as they come.

Well...I was also thinking Spectro for easy photo uploading, but now Ratbat is sounding like the better option.

I can deal with the uploading, I think I have found a way to work around the slowness.

*pant* What I would give to be BG's size right now... it probably only takes her 15 steps to get from the kitchen to the bedroom.


Six.
What?
It takes six steps, not 15.
Shut up.




You... you know what?


I'm just gonna... go over here and... and...


...rest for a bit...

An hour or so later...



...Rewind?


*soft snoring*
Rewind?
...Huh? What?


You're supposed to be at the medbay.
I am? I woke up and there was no one there.
No one? Let's have a talk with Drift.


I can walk, you know.
How long does a walk from the kitchen table take for us? Ten, fifteen minutes? That's not very long, and yet you were still dead-tired.
I was not!
Uh, yeah, you were.
...Fine, then. Let's go.

Hey, Drift?
What is he doing here?
He woke up in the medbay (you do realize it's just Flip Sides on the table, right?) and nobody was there.
Ratchet said he would be up there! I'm going to give him a piece of my mind.
Erm... not literally, I hope?
Shush! You'll give him ideas.


Ratchet, we need to talk.
...Why is Rewind awake?
That's what I was going to ask you.


I told you that you were on duty for this morning, Drift!
Wha- You said you would take the shift!
I DID NO SUCH THING!


Why you little-
I am still higher ranked than you in the medical fields, Drift!
Shut up, you slaggin' one-step!
You shut up, Prowl.
DON'T CALL ME PROWL!!!


*fighting noises*
...Are we sure these guys are qualified medics?

Later...

Are you alright? You've been curled up like that for almost an hour.
My back hurts...


Want me to get Ratchet?
Eh... how about Blades? He seems competent.
Wait, Blades? Blades Blades? *sigh* Alright. But if he can't do anything, I'm getting Ratchet.


Oh, well that's simple. I'll just head up to the living room shelf and grab some medications for him, and-
Wait. I thought you told me all you could do was slap on bandages...?
When it comes to surgery and such, yes. That patch on his back is my work. But I'm an expert when it comes to medicine.

I love taking pictures of Soundwave and the tech.

... ...
You... really like my-
!!!
*sigh* -our devices, don't you?
...

...What is that?
My Energon candy. You no touchie.
Isn't that a candy cane from last Christmas?
Oi, Energon is Energon.


See? Left swarm, not the right.
I can't see anything. The sun's not all the way down, plus the flag light is right in my optics.


Hey, there's one in here!
What? There should only be the spark lanterns in front of my window...
And this one's color doesn't change like the others.
I'll, uh, I'll check it out later. It's time for us to go inside.


Uh, Soundwave... what are you doing to my stuff? Hello? Soundwave?

My best friend thought this up.

You make a good landing pad.


That patch ruins your alt-mode.
Talk to the copter.


Hands in the air!
That's... not a gun.
No way! What is it, then?!
...An empty tape dispenser.


You make an awesome tricorder.
Um... what?
Ask Tum. He watches Star Trek with me. So does Soundwave.


What're you two doing? It's not dark yet.
It's easier to stand up here than down on the floor when you have your fans on.
Plus we like spying on your dad.

Who are you supposed to be?
The better version of you.
How? I was the first Transformer BG ever had.
I was the first Transformer ever in this house.


Well, at least I have a show-accurate alt-mode.
At least I'm not afraid of flying in alt-mode.
Fine. But you know why I'm really better?


I have a Rescue Bots Bumblebee.
Alright, you got me there. Fine, you win.


Hey, there, little guy! Are you lost?


Oh, what's that? Is that your toy?


*psew*


*koff* Shoulda seen that coming.
...You're not even worthy of a dunce cap.


One-Steps and non-transforming toys only.


Guys, what is that thing?


*poke poke*


Whoa!


*muffled yelling*

The Blob?

Sigma Magnus wrote:The Blob?

It's from Transformers. Don't go by color, though.

Hey, can you bring over the hose?
...Why?
Cuz this would make an awesome waterslide, dude.


Wow. That's... one big bottle.
I know, right? I found a big huge stash of 'em. I already had three.
Um...
Come on. I think I saw some of my old circuit boosters back behind 'em!
Something is wrong with you. Way wrong.
Shuddup and help me reach these things.


Drift-Prowl!
*growls* What? And quit calling me "Drift-Prowl".
Can you talk some sense into BG? She's got practically a ton of-


Nope, nevermind. Too late.
You were asking me to do the impossible, anyway.
(Click-Clack sneaking into the pictures. I didn't do that. )


*bang bang bang*


*dramatic gasp*


Precious oxygen!
*sigh* We don't need to breathe, you idiot.


So you are coming out.
What do you mean?
Well, you and Chromedome, alone with the lights out-
Shut up!


There you are.
A little slow, aren't we?
Well, it's not my fault you're all either really small or really skinny so you can slip through that easily.
Or maybe you're just a bit overweight.
Excuse me?!
I was kidding!
You better be.

[THIS IS NOT THE ORIGINAL IMAGE I USED, ONLY A REPLACEMENT. THE OLD IMAGE HAD A GLITCH AND WAS UNUSABLE.]

Guess what movie I'm gonna see today.

Cars?

Sigma Magnus wrote: Cars?

Nope. Cars 3.

I thought I had gotten over my Cars obsession, but with the new movie out, I think I'm reverting.

And I may have used it as an excuse to bring out my full Cars cars collection...

I meant Cars 3 and you know it.

Anyway, back when the first movie came out, I had a HUGE Cars collection. Buuut I gave 'em all to my cousin.

What year did the first movie come out?

Uh...I think it was before the first Bayformer movie...2005 or '06? Why?
