Also I have a vague idea for a fic or a comic? I don’t know if I’m capable of doing a comic at this point but it would be Nightbeat getting curious and borrowing Nautica’s wrench again, and turning the beam that cancels out attention-deflectors on Rung at Swerve’s, wondering if he might be some sort of natural attention deflector.
The results are spectacular.
At first Rung is confused, wondering why everybody is staring. Then somebody points out that he has five eyes. And horns. And he’s even more confused, until he looks at his hand, sees claws, and starts screaming because OH GOD WHAT? WHAT????!!!!
I like the idea of Rung being a secret eldritch thing without even knowing it. When the beam’s off him all the weird stuff disappears again, like, it literally stops existing and can’t be touched. Some sort of quantum bullslag, Nautica explains- it’s only physical while it’s being observed.
This probably has other consequences but for now just a fun monster!Rung idea.
I’ll try to draw more of this later.
I was weak so here’s an alternate ending. Rung as an angel of Primus, instead of a monster? I should try to combine these two designs.
I still insist on a bunch of thin flicky antennae and five eyes, tho.
I forgot I did this but I feel that this previous issue would have been a great time for Rung to have turned into Unicron and eaten somebody.
Due to popular demand, I did “Pegasus” after all.
Pegasus is a genus closely related to Gryps (griffins and hippogriffs), which was once widespread across Europe and the Americas, but underwent a sharp decline following the last ice age. The most famous species, Pegasus olympius, is not actually found in Greece but in parts of Northern Europe and Russia, but was named for its resemblance to its mythical counterpart. It is about the size of a large deer and ranges in color from white to speckled grey or greyish-brown. “Pegasette” is the smallest species of Pegasus, and the only remaining in the Americas. It is a textbook case of Insular dwarfism.
