Reblogging This Cause I've Decided To Watch One Piece Anyways

I know I said in my post that the miners used to have a long-running bet about whether Orion Pax and D-16 would go through Conjunx Endura or Amica Endura ritual. And it's too funny to not elaborate.

The bet happens among miners on the same floor as Orion and Dee in the miner dormitory. The two are easy to recognize because:

Dee is known to be one of the best miners,

Orion is known to get into trouble first thing in the morning (as shown by the annoyed "Again" by one of the background characters when he landed on the train), and

they're always seen together.

Now, on to the bet. It started as a joke. But the more miners joined in, the bigger it got:

Some think Dee could do better for a mate and bet on Amica Endura (a bot can dream).

Others believe there's a reason Dee still hangs out with Orion even when Orion doesn't care about getting into trouble and bets on Conjunx Endura.

Jazz bets 3 to 1 that whichever ritual, it's Dee who would initiate first because he has a "more steady rhythm" than Orion's beat.

Elita-1, even if she's not in the same dormitory floor, knows about the bet because they're on the same team. She retorted it would be a million years before something ever happens between those two gobots.

Prowl thinks they'd eventually separate due to differences but doesn't bet. Sadly, this happened, which would've ended the bet.

But when the war with the Decepticons came, the bet was forgotten. They know Dee. They can't joke about it anymore, knowing he became their strongest enemy now.

But, oh, after MILLIONS of years, the Autobots and Decepticons are coming home to Cybertron for a common cause. The peace agreement was tentative at best. But slowly, they began adapting a pattern of norm.

Then, the autobot who had kept the record of bets stumbled upon their old belongings.

It only took one mention to the other Autobots before the stupid bet came back with full force on their now co-leaders.

B-127, now Bumblebee, finds out about the bet and says he bets they would be happy either way. (It's a wonder he hadn't accidentally blabbed it to Optimus yet)

Ratchet finds out about the bet. With a disapproving air, he declares, "I bet Optimus Prime would do the wise thing and go through Amica Endura first—is what I would say but knowing him..." he slaps a couple of shanix on the table, "20 to 1 odds he'd proposed first to that buckethead."

Optimus Prime felt a difference in their political meetings where they have to negotiate with Megatron and the Decepticons but he appreciates the newfound interest.

The Decepticons caught on to the bet.

Starscream surprisingly refuses to participate, but jeers that he bets Optimus would die from some self-sacrificial shit and Megatron would die from loneliness 3 years later. Skywarp comments, "Smart, I'll triple that!" So now there's a deadpool on the side.

The lull of the end of the Decepticon meetings are subtly taken as opportunity by some Seekers to know what's Megatron's thoughts on commitment.

Megatron is suspicious that they're up to something, but as long as they keep their nose cones clean, there wouldn't be any repurcussions.

(I'm sorry I'm not as familiar with other Autobots and Decepticons. Feel free to say what you'd think said characters would bet on👍)

when i dont know enough in an area of my special interest

I did promise a sanuso comic did I??

(read from left to right sorry if it's abit messy)

Was it a good idea at the time-? Yes

Is it still? Eehhhhh maybe lmao

big fan of the verions of dadimus and bby bee where bee is the cybertronian equivalent of like 7 yrs old when he's adopted and is suspicious of op at first

like, op is on a scouting mission with what little scraps of a team he managed to put together in the chaos of praxus-in-ruins and comes across a super makeshift little hidey-hole right next to an abandoned adoption center whose well was burning out. b127 didnt get a name yet cus he was too young when the fighting went down but it's been about a vorn after that and he is super malnourished and panicky but managed to avoid detection (or the decepticons honored the rules of war at first, allowing families and children to escape harm, and b just missed the transport ships before they laid waste to the capital city.)

op approaches be cautiously, servos held open to show he isnt a threat. b is like, "no one's s'pposed to be here!" (read: no one's supposed to find me)

"me and my team here came to see if there was anyone hurt, or... still stuck in the rubble. can i... let them take a look at you?"

b is still wary but then op unfolds his battle mask, bit of a still-healing scar over his jaw and mouth. that seems to settle him and he comes closer, lets ratchet take a look at him, and agrees to stay at their makeshift base for now. no caretakers have claimed him yet but he seems to like op

ratchet and op have whispered conversations over what they're gonna do w him, but at this point the matrix has triggered op's fatherly protocols and he wants to take care of b himself. it takes a little longer to earn his full trust but he does it, one soft conversation about the war and what it means over one energon cubes at a time.

b doesnt want to change his designation/adopt a real designation yet and op honors that, but doesnt let him learn how to fight servo to servo until b is like cybertronian teenager-age, which is only two or three vorns later since cybertronians age so quickly

he learns how to fight and starts making friends, learns about the decepticons' and autobots' causes and is allowed to choose whether he wants to stay with them or if his political views are more aligned with megatron's army, but to everyone's secret relief and joy he chooses to stay with them. those who have interacted with him have all taken a liking to their little b, so they are all glad he chose to stay, even more so that he wants to fight with him. he gets his first weapons upgrades and trains under whomever will teach him, although his most frequent sparring partner is op, since he doesn't go too easy on him and lets him learn from his mistakes, etc.

he never really calls op his sire, he's a bit more reserved affectionately speaking and although he always reports to op and asks him to spar he doesnt spend whole days with him. op is always busy anyway, but if b ever asks he does try to drop everything he can to get more free time with him, even if b ends their time together faster than he does. op tries not to care so much, they're in a war after all, but he is hurt sometimes when b spends a few days apart from him.

so even tho they dont spend every day together, everyone can clearly see how b defers to op and whenever they're on missions together, and how he tries to show off in front of him, spinning in the air or knocking out multiple decepticons in one hit. he is constantly asking him where to go and what to do, as close of a student-mentor relationship as a father-son one without anything being official

and then, op sends him to earth, even tho he doesnt really want to, even tho he wants b by his side, and b makes human friends and he learns about human culture, and he really likes human culture and he loves earth, and when he gets his new designation, well, op is the first person he tells.

Have we considered this perhaps…
