Cybertronian food dump! Designing this stuff is addictive.

1) a typical cafeteria meal at the JAAT. Maccadam ensures the students get only the best, even occasionally arranging for “culture fuel” days, serving dishes from different city-states or colonies.

2) if you let steel woolies sit long enough, you get rust bunnies, delicious lil bunches of spice. It’s pretty easy to make them (Whirl keeps a bunch of steel woolies under his berth and just lets them rust until they’re ready), but commercial grade rust bunnies have grease and seasoning that adds to the flavor.

3) cyberflora aren’t really alive like organic plants are, but they do contribute heavily to the energon cycle, metal distribution, and energy generation of Cybertron. This one is called a brollypalm, a solar collector that gathers energon and charges it to a sweet buzz with the energy. Brollypods can be cracked open and drank, or they can be chilled to a gelatinous solid and eaten.

4) I have nothing to say about RAM-En except for the fact you’d better appreciate the pun.

Liaison doing cyber first aid while on call to medbay doin some wack shit to keep someone alive. They're doing their best, but they are so so small plz help. Fucking jumping on someone's fuel pump like a god damn trampoline like cpr or welding someone kinda poorly but it won't be infected in the battlefield. The calls are always the hardest to comprehend so the medics just see the liaison's comm come up and go directly to coordinates before talking cause it's like "*bounce* hey im bouncing on *bounce* whirl's fuel pump again *bounce* we're behind a big ro- Hi first aid" *click*

I could just FEEL the Stress this Buddy would have.

Hope you enjoy!

Human Buddy doing Cybertronian first aid

SFW, Platonic, Mention of injuries', Human reader

MTMTE

Buddy was just a bit curious about the first aid class Ratchet was going to be holding.

They didn’t expect them to actually be invested in this.

Or did they think about talking to the resident medics about the subject.

And definitely not trying to find which flashcards match the terms of the diagram of a servo.

Buddy is lying on First Aid’s lap. Buddy: “How do you do all of this?” First Aid: “Believe me I don’t know how either.” Velocity: “Its going to be a bit hard, but you’ll get it.” Buddy groans as they flop back down on First Aid’s lap. Buddy: “I can’t do anything!” First Aid and Velocity have flashbacks to studying for their medical exams.

Good news they did get a certification for official bot aid.

Bad news was that as soon as they got certified, all of their friends started getting injured.

At first it wasn’t that bad.

Tailgate has a small mesh wound on his knee?

A bit of precise welding, some buffing and its good as new!

Now, comparing that to someone gushing out energon… Buddy was near frantic.

They’re small!

There is only so much they can do while running around on their tiny legs!

Brainstorm was on the floor wincing at the slightly shaky welding job Buddy was doing with the Cybertronian equivalent of a small lighter. Brainstorm: “Would you- ouch! Would it hurt for you to be a bit steadier—hey!” Buddy, who is tired of holding the lighter above their head while wadding through some energon squints their eyes. Buddy: “I’ll be steadier when I can feel my arms again. Now quite squirming!”

After the 5th accident of Buddy having to do emergency aid, Ratchet gave them a com line that would go directly to the med bay.

That way any free medic would go and find them.

Buddy treats this line like a national treasure.

But the worst cases of emergency aid they had to do was out on the battlefield.

At least most of the time they had their suit with them, so most of the heavier items was lessened.

Buddy uses their jet pack on Cyclonus’s pede to try and weld the wound shut. Buddy: “How in the world did you get stabbed in the pede!? You fight in the sky!” Cyclonus grunts a bit in pain. Buddy is just trying to keep everything together. They reach for the com line. Buddy: “Any medic—Woah stay still!—I’m with Cyclonus—I swear to Primus if you try to transform here I will wield you in your sleep!—behind the rock formation that looks like a giant ant!” First Aid: “What’s an ant?”

Did you know that you could do CPR on a bot?

Neither did Buddy.

They didn’t even know that was a possibility!

Yet here they were, jumping up and down near Whirl’s fuel pump.

Buddy is jumping furiously on Whirl’s frame. Buddy: “What *bounce* made you *bounce* think that *bounce* drinking an entire *bounce* case of Nightmare fuel *bounce* was a good idea!? *bounce* *bounce*. Thankfully Velocity got their call and was running towards them. Buddy: “I swear Whirl *bounce* if you leave us like this *bounce* I Will go to *bounce* whatever afterlife you have *bounce* and drag you back to throttle you myself!”

Buddy is so tired and exhausted.

They start thinking that they have some sort of cosmic bad luck because of all the close calls they’ve had.

Their sleep schedule is messed up from waiting in the med bay for their friends to have the okay from Ratchet.

Their limbs are sore from holding heavy objects and running around.

And they still have to get their usual workload done!

Buddy is so close to tears when Magnus starts to point out some grammatical errors.

He had to stop mid-way because Buddy looked like they were going to burn the desk while sobbing.

They just need some sleep…

Buddy wakes up groggily and starts to get ready. They open the door to find a data pad and a Rodimus star. They brought it in and started reading it. It had multiple thank you notes from everyone they helped. Buddy can’t help a smile creeping up to their face. Buddy: “Softies…” There was a video attachment which they played. Every bot they helped: “Thanks Buddy!” Magnus pipes up: “You have the rest of the day to collect yourself.” Rodimus next to him: “He means you have a free day! Enjoy it!” The video ends. Buddy has some happy tears. They looked at the Rodimus star. It read, ‘For being the best human medic on the ship.’

Rodimus is not allowed to answer the phone on the lostlight because he keeps falling for the spaceship insurance scams.

Jazz !!!

Still gotta figure out the brush to use because my usual all purpose airbrush doesn’t do hard edges lol

Camping under the starlight... 🌠

The differences between TFP and Earthspark Optimuses are sooooooo fucking funny. TFP OP is burdened with "I've never seen Prime laugh, cry, or lose his cool," he responds to "Hey Optimus you wanna see something funny?!" with the numbest dead-eyed Eeyore "No," he's just generally Haunted and Stoic every waking moment

Then we have Chuckles McGee with his looney toons ass face winking and making finger guns and giggling nervously and spamming the group chat with emojis and cracking jokes and making "graphic design is my passion" self-help pamphlets
