huh...


a heartwarming scene, with flowers to boot
he knows that any and all anger is moot
but he's still prepared as ever
to protect what he holds dear
i'd like to see him give magnus the scoop!

 

That's... a... I dunno if that's supposed to be heartwarming or creepy.

 

Oh my...

 

... You did rather good a job.

... To make a character with Demolisher's body seem as sincerely sweet as possible.

Not the first thing to come in mind from that.

 

 

 

Ummmmm...ummmm...ummm.....Did I just stepped into Findie Land?  

 

I have to admit, I'm a little lost. So there's some kind of being, Linkage, that exists and which Skids has seen. Tsugaru is also seeing this person in her dreams. Meanwhile, some bots are plotting to just kill her for some reason. I'm guessing it will all tie together down the road, but it's a little unclear for me at the moment.

On the other hand, your photoshopping effects (or whatever program you use) are really standing out right now. Nicely done.  

 

So Stella was his daughter aaaaw poor guy  

Man soo much loss he had  

 

Here, lemme try and straighten it out as I understand it.

There are three primary mechanoid races in the comic:

1. Cybertronians - These are beings with a Spark, and are basically the Transformers we know and love. When they die, their essences supposedly go to the Allspark.

2. Microns - Based apparently on the Minicon/Microns from Armada/Micron Legend, including the extended stuff. These transformers don't have sparks, but are all connected through something called the 'Linkage'. It is this which gives them their sentience and makes them more than machines, and also serves as their afterlife.

3. Gobots - These are a small, refugee group. They are in fact cyborgs, organic beings who were forced or chose to shed their organic bodies in favor of large, Transformer-like forms. Only their brains remain organic. They have been decimated by the Decepticons, and their brains are routinely lobotimized and used as CPUs in Boomer drones.

Now, the current issue with the Linkage stems from several things. Firstly, the Linkage is more than some great network, it appears to have some kind of subspace domain it exists in. The universe the comic is (mostly) taking place in is unique in that it has a singularity at it's core, which is apparently starting to degrade. In other instances where this singularity has failed, even if the universe survives, the Linkage does not, rendering all Microns to be mindless drones once more, essentially obliterating their souls.

The early attempts to rescue Tsugaru from this universe resulted in connecting her to the Linkage.

Also, there is something ELSE connected to the Linkage. Something trapped within the Singularity itself. This is the Seeker of Names and Faces. It seems to manifest through Tsugaru, and has access to the Linkage, but not the Allspark or whatever afterlife organic beings have.

Skids knows about the Seeker (Due, apparently to the Seeker contacting him through his dreams), but has kept that knowledge to himself because his colleagues would declare him crazier than a Pinto Firetruck.

I think that's about right. Lemme know if that helps.

 

Ooo, good summary!

Man

this one was so deep

 

That helps tremendously. Thanks.  

 

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...thanks!

 

Folks: Apologies for the confusion & delayed reply. I was down in Johnstown, yesterday, visiting an iron foundry that's going to make some parts for the place where I work. The foundry was awesome.  

Fortunately, Pol has come through and cleared everything up, much better than I would be able to.  

tfm: The Entropolitans are a creepy bunch. After all, they live in a giant mausoleum.

ECRF: It's a thing that happened in the story, to read however you like.  

T+C: I think you see, now, why Sideswipe decided to seek asylum in Entropolis, and why he didn't get very specific with Tsugaru on the reasons.

The same kind of flower Sideswipe gave her before.  

FF: Thanks!  

TC: You stepped into a weird place, but one where not much is random.  

Ah1: Thanks! It's all Gimp. I'm going to turn this over to Pol.  

P: That was a fantastic summary, and as I said, much clearer than mine would have been.   It's 95% right, and I'm amazed by some of the details you've picked up on, too, really impressed! The 5% is reserved for taco sauce.  

I might have to use that summary on my website, if I can make it work in-universe, in some way. Would that be okay?  

I'm going to add a few other things.
Shane - the Entropolitans aren't plotting to kill Tsugaru. Kanamu (yellow loader) is just predicting doom, and Ulchtar is a little uneasy about her. Skydive wanted to warn her about the creepy green lady, but he was acting like a nut, and got zapped.

sc: Thanks.  

DP: Yeah, she was his daughter. A good thing she doesn't look like him.   Probably resembles her mother more closely, who was presumably a Micron, since Scoops isn't.

I'm sure it was growing up in Entropolis that gave Stellite her rather cavalier attitude about being dead.  

 

Now for that dream...

a gift of horror.

I think I'm going to cry.

Yeah, poor thing.
