*bounce bounce bounce* Hey you two! Guess what!
*raises optic ridge* “What, Den?”
*grinds dental plates together* “What do you want, flesh-bag?”
*grin* You two get to take the Mary Sue test again!
Is your character named after yourself or your screen name? (+1)
“Technically, my name is an anagram of Den’s given name with an ‘x’ thrown in, so yes. (+1)
“Nope!”
Is your character described as beautiful? (+1)
“Well, Quicksilver seems to think so…”*smug grin*(+1)
“I think Den made it apparent that I’m not beautiful…I’d say I’m fairly average-looking.”*shrug*
"Unusually" or "astonishingly" beautiful? (+2)
“Well…”
*rolls eyes* Desi, it’s only been stated HERE. I’m not sure it counts.
*SNERK*
The most beautiful Transformer who's ever lived? (+3)
“It hasn’t come yet…but I’m sure it will…”
*rolls optics* “Narcissist…Anyways, Den stated quite clearly that I’m not the most beautiful Transformer who’s ever lived…but she at least was nice enough to say I’m not ugly…”*shrug*
Are her optics an unusual color? (+1)
“Mine are red…they’ve been repaired since the last time you had us do this stupid test.
“Blue-grey…but still normal, I think…”
*nods* I think so…
Do they change color according to her mood? (+1)
I think the only one who does/did that is/was Shaba…who isn’t either of my gals, so nope!
Does she have long, flowing hair? (+2)
“Do you know how much of a pain in the aft that would be?! It’d get tangled up in my kibble! Not to mention the havoc it would wreck on my rifle!”
“Wow, Desi, for once, we agree on something… ‘cept for me, it’d be my bowstring…or the arrows…”
Do you describe it on the first page of the story? (+2)
*collective shout* “NO.”
Do you describe it more than once? (+3)
Mandy beat me to the joke…
Is she a recolored and/or "feminized" version of a canon character? (+1)
…I can’t believe people would write that sort of thing.
Is she a Seeker? (+1)
“…I’d have to use myself as target practice.”
*SNERK* “Um, NO. Considering my history with ‘em…”*eyes the paint scrapes she’s still got* “I’d have to worry about being Jet Judo’d by Sunstreaker and Sideswipe…no thank you.”
“Oh yeah, forgot about that…”
Do you spend more than two consecutive paragraphs describing her physical appearance? (+1)
*eyes Desi*
“What?” *glare*
TF/Mech Exchange Profile.
“…SLAG.”(+1)
“Well, considering you really had no idea what I’d look like aside from minor details, no.
Do you begin the story with her description? (+1)
No…I generally try to avoid that…I used to, back when I was first writing fanfiction, for Trigun fandom, but no…I grew out of that phase.
Do you make it a point to mention that she's as tall, or taller, than the average male? (+1)
“I think I’m around average height for a femme…not sure though…I know I’m only a foot or so taller than WakeJumper, but that’s because Den hasn’t gotten around to figuring out exactly how tall his final protoform will be…”
“I hate you, Den.” (+1)
No you don’t…you’re still smaller than the majority of the mechs…heck, Quicksilver has a good 12 feet on you.
“True…and he knows how to use it to his advantage.”*smirk*
*twitch*
Does the story begin with something like, "Hi there! I'm (character name) and this is my story..." etc.? (+10)
I’ve seen that…in Final Fantasy X…it was CANON, and NOT TF, so there.
Does she have wings on her shoulders? (+1)
*eyes certain not-yet-available femme charrie* Technically, they’ll be Microwings…so I don’t think that’ll count…(I’ll do the test again when she comes into play.)
Does she have wings on her butt? (-20 and you're excused from the rest of the test.)
*SNERK*
“…”*KERTHUD*
Does she have more than one alt-mode? (+1)
More than two? (+2)
More than three? (+3)
No X 3.
Is her robot mode surprisingly lacking in the "kibble" that would logically be necessary to transform
into all these things (because then she wouldn't be as purty)? (+2)
Nope, as it doesn’t apply in this question.
Does she transform via "magic" or some advanced and/or alien technology? (+2)
…Hey, Desi, are you hiding Harry Potter in there?*Snickering*
“Harry Potter? Like I’d let that non-existant fleshbag foul up my interior?!”
Is one of her alt-modes an animal with wings? (+1)
Nope for both of ‘em.
An animal that doesn't typically have wings (like a cat)? (+2)
Any fantasy-type creature (dragon, unicorn, griffin, etc.)? (+2)
I honestly cannot believe there are people who write this sorta stuff…*sighs*
Is one of her alt-modes organic or partly organic (if she's G1)? (+2)
No
Does her name contain one or more of the following:
Star/Sun/Sky? (+1)
Fire/Flame? (+1)
Night/Day/Dawn/Shadow? (+1)
Black/Silver? (+1)
Cat/Wolf/Raptor/Dragon? (+1)
Dark/Blood/Death/Blade? (+1)
“…Fleshbags actually name characters with names like that?! Even Den’s a bit more creative than that…”
Any variation of Optimus, Ultra, Mega, Galva, etc. (Includes Prime and -tron suffixes)? (+2)
*snerk* Come on, how lame do you think I am? I mean yeah, Showtime is kinda cheesy, but it fits into the standard procedures for naming TFs…I think…
A deliberately misspelled word, like Fyre or Darke? (+2)
Good god, people. That’s not even FUNNY.
An inexplicable capital letter in the middle of the name? (+2)
Eh…technically, WakeJumper does…but since this is for the femmes, nope.
Does she have a two-part name composed entirely of the previous, like "FyreBlade NightDragyn"?
(+20, and come on)
Does her full name include a "the," followed by some supposedly cool-sounding descriptive,
like, "DeathWolf the Soul-Flayer"? (+2)
Is her name a completely made-up word like nothing any canon TF has ever had, just because you
thought it sounded cool? (+3)
Is her name a painfully blatant feminization of a canon name, like "Starscreamia" or "Lady Optimus"?
(+10)
No to all of the above.
Have you used the same name for a non-TF character in another universe? (+1)
“…I plead the fifth.” (+1)
Sorry, Desi…it’s technically for another RP, a non-TF one, but still, it counts.
Two or more other universes? (+2)
Is it because she's actually the same character and has the ability to travel between dimensions and
alter her appearance to suit each one, or some such? (+10, and sigh)
“…I can’t believe humans actually write stuff like that…”
Does she have any of the following abilities:
Telepathy? (+1)
More powerful than Soundwave's? (+2)
“…Soundwave is creepier than all slag. I try to avoid him if I can.”
…Desi, that wasn’t the question…
“It’s a good enough answer.” *twitching*
Teleportation? (+1)
More powerful than Skywarp's? (+2)
“Skywarp…is nothing more than an irritating target…Teleportation…eesh…can’t believe humans actually write that stuff…”
Super-speed? (+1)
Faster than Blurr's? (+2)
Unusually keen senses? (Sight, hearing, smell, etc.) (+1 for each)
Telekenesis? (+2)
"Magical" powers, often vaguely defined or whatever the situation calls for
(including magical healing of self or others)? (+2)
Time-travel under her own power? (+2)
Control of the weather or other natural elements? (+2)
The ability to communicate with animals? (+2)
Precognition or a "sixth sense" regarding imminent danger (including precognitive dreams or
visions)? (+2)
Any ability which no canon TF has ever been shown to have? (+3)
ALL of the above? (+100 points and kindly never write anything again)
No, thank god, I have *some* common sense.
A brilliant scientist and/or inventor? (+1)
So brilliant that she effortlessly solves problems that Wheeljack, Ratchet, and/or Perceptor couldn't?
(+2)
“…I’d rather avoid the explosive one, thank you very much.”
“Percy tried to teach me at one point, and it didn’t go well…vocab and all that fun stuff…so no.”
Is she a phenomenally skilled martial artist? (+1)
*groan*
In Metallikato? (+2)
*searches Wikia for exactly wtf that is*
In some hitherto-unknown Cybertronian martial art that you just made up? (+3)
“…Grappling is NOT an unknown thing…nor is it a martial art.”
“…”
Is she the only female ever to be trained in this art? (+1)
Good lord, how bad are the Sues that require questions like this?!
Is she an incredible sharpshooter? (+1)
“…yes…” (+1)
“So I’ve been told…I’m not that great, really…” (+1)
At any distance? (+1)
“Hey, even I have my limits.
“Ditto.”
With any weapon? (+1)
“Why would I want to use someone else’s piece when I’ve got a perfectly good rifle of my own?”
“I don’t like guns very much…so there’s no way I’d willingly handle one.”
If you've made Tech Specs for her:
Are they all sevens and/or eights? (+1)
Nines and/or tens? (+2)
Higher than tens? (+5)
“…most of mine are sevens and eights…aside from a few of ‘em…”
True, but the question asks if they’re ALL sevens and/or eights…which your’s aren’t, nor are any of Showtime’s.
Does she have a beautiful singing voice? (+1)
Really, I agree with Mandy, TFs could probably be perfect singers. Hit the perfect notes and hold them for as long as needed, you know? They don't need air, after all. Lucky them. But I digress. No, none of them have beautiful singing voices.
Does she play a musical instrument? (+1)
No.
Is it the flute? (+20)
Nope…
Is it the bagpipes? (-20)
Mandy took the joke I was gonna make.
Is she extremely fond of a particular Earth musical group, TV show, movie, etc.? (+1)
“Does classical music count?”
I don’t think so…
That just happens to be YOUR favorite musical group, TV show, movie, etc.? (+2)
My music tastes are so varied, I don’t really HAVE a favorite….
Is she so obsessed with a particular rock band that she named herself after it? (+10) ;-)
…WTF. Do people actually write this sorta stuff?!
