I've only watched like two of the Bay movies and can't remember what happened in them. What "brother" line between Optimus and Megatron, and what dynamic did we get out of it?
it was in The Last Knight iirc! it's during a fight, with Megatron saying "We were brothers once" and Optimus only replying "Once".
it's a very iconic line but tragically it's wasted on the bayverse because 1. this is like. the one moment where we get even a hint of a deeper connection between those two and it's a ten seconds clip and 2. boring people have used it to say it's gross to ship megop because they're "brothers". nevermind that it was highly likely that line in the movie was meant as in "brothers-in-arms". but alas. tis' the source of the suffering of megop shippers all over the world OTL
and the lord high protector thing is. well. it came from the bayverse comics. it was the position megatron held before the war in cybertron. he was lord high protector and in charge of military affairs while optimus was prime and in charge of civilian and spiritual matters and they both ruled over cybertron together.
which is like. the perfect royal au wrapped up with a nice bow and fancy titles to match. it's just asking to be made into a trope for shipping. and oh boy has it been used well by fanfic writers everywhere lol
so while the bayverse made a lot of people think megatron and optimus are brothers, it also gave us a very juicy bit of lore and worldbuilding we've used for shipping purposes a lot lmao
so yeah!

āgo to hellā is basic āi hope one person in your gay ship refers to the other in canon as ālike a brother to meā as a way of expressing affection for him, thus leading people online to think they are actually relatedā is smart. itās possible. itās happened to me like five times.

I donāt very much about flower language I just googled it so if itās not accurate thatās an oops for me
Originally I wanted the flowers to look more alien/cybertronian but then I got the idea for flower language so they ended up looking pretty earthy still put some crystals in some tho like I originally wanted to do
Tldr theyāre both idiots but theyāll figure it out
the struggle of having to fight your best friend and be serious about it when the two of you have the same sense of humor and were each other's "yes and-" partner for years </3

randomly thinking about the orion pax arc in tfp and how megatron immediately grabbed orion's chest the moment he could do it without losing a hand and i don't know what would've been more devastating: if them being touchy with each other was the norm before the war or if it was the war that made them so familiar with each other's bodies that megatron didn't hesitate to grab orion like that.
like on one hand there's the heartbreak of losing the tenderness you share with someone you love enough to have that sort of intimacy with and trading it with only violence and pain.
but on the other there's the heartache of having never known the gentle touch of someone you loved and trusted so much losing them sort of led to the destruction of your entire world and only being familiar with their touch by the violence you inflict on each other.
what's worse. to have and to lose it. or to never have and only wonder what it would've been like.
