Awww, they're so cute!

Not going to lie, I want a lot more, Mourningstar's inherent racism brings me all sorts of glee. Glee I say.

MOAR. I DEMAND IT.

Unless you're too busy.

Then don't.

And hit me.

You might wanna fix your html and this one and only spelling error? "Morningstar stroking Shriek's help" Sorry for being a dick.

I have great love for Morningstar's racism as well... mostly because I've never seen an OC that /is/ racist. DO THEY HAVE THE TF EQUIVALENT OF THE KKK OUT THERE? =/ This is something I like to consider.

And I'm already considering more. I just need to figure it out properly. <3

HEAD MEET DESK. ASLDJF; THANK YOU. THIS IS NOT DICKERY, IT IS NECESSARY *LUFFS*

Oh, my. Darling, you have just redeemed a truly shitty day.

::It hurts. Make it stop hurting?::

This? Was BRILLIANT. I thought it was interesting that Shriek's reactions were more animalistic than anything else. Threat=attack/kill, pain=find a safe place to lick your wounds. Morningstar was just as fantastic as I thought she'd be, and I liked how Ashburner was immediately like "Hi, bear hug." Too cute. Er, if you can call three fucked-up, violent sociopaths cute. I'm sorry it gave you so much trouble, but I am a very happy camper right now. :D

Well, if I've made your day better, then the writing was worth it =D

Shriek really is animalistic, now that I think about it. She doesn't actually function very well in society unless she's got Ash or Morn with her because she's very blunt and open. If she were less aggressive, she'd actually be a good Autobot because she never lies. Doesn't see the point in it.

... and now I have to write them being the violent sociopaths they are... my poor fodder!OCs are trembling with fear.

<3 Never worry about giving me trouble, you! XD I write only what I want to, and never anything else. Can't rape the willing =3

Hmmmm...sounds like they're dependent on one another? Kind of like a three-way emotional check and balance system. I wonder if that's their personalities or if it's a function of being a Seeker trine. Seems like I've seen that kind of characterization for a trine somewhere before, I just can't recall where. *blinks* Sorry. Thinking out loud again. Carry on.

Hah! Well, they SHOULD be trembling, now shouldn't they?

*grin* That's okay, then.

They really are. I think all trines act differently depending on how they were created. Starscream, Skywarp and Thundercracker are close, but they had lives before the trine got set up, so they aren't gonna be sacrificing themselves for each other and they might even back-stab a little. The OxyMorons, however, were created and activated together during the war and meant to be a trine. They're pretty much siblings because of this, or at least best friends since birth. That makes for a very strong connection.

Echoing zangetsugirl's day redemption. Thank you.

The first time I read a description of these three in ClankClank's journal, I didn't really care either way about them. I didn't even know the canon seekers, let alone OC ones. Now, though, I can definitely appreciate this trine much more.

... I would say more, but brain is down and out of the count for the night. General <3

Aw, no problem! I'm so glad you liked!

Well, I'm glad that you liked them once I started to write XD It makes me so very happy as a writer!

... granted, I don't know how much you'll like them when the next fic related to them comes out. Because they /are/ psychotic Decepticon soldiers, which makes for some rather disturbing imagery >>;

Aw, sleep well, luv!

I'm not sure who I like the most yet, if I will ever come to a conclusion, but I think it's a close toss-up between the two femmes. ... Probably Shriek if only for her wonderfully creative choice of "weapon". It's cute how Morningstar just drops everything without a thought to track down her mate, like her priorities are incredibly clear but maybe still subconscious.

I tend to have a soft spot for certain types of sociopaths, heaven knows why, so I'm sure it won't be a problem. At all. In fact, I'm really excited to see them in (more?) action, even if it is violent, braintwisty Decepticon action.

...wait, is it up already? >_> Only skimmed the Flist, but something was put up. :O I may need to save reading whatever it is in favor of finishing this PTSD essay. Pooey.

Thank you, and I hope you do too, when you do. ...That was an awkward sentence. XD <3

I'll admit it: I'm totally in love with Shriek's rudder-wings. They're like ... killer door-wings FTW XD

And Morningstar's... she's a difficult one. Sometimes it's hard for me to get in her head because she's really the only one of the trine with /deep/ thoughts on a regular basis.

XD okay then! The one up is actually not the violence yet... Morningstar sidetracked me with her manipulativeness, the silly girl. Still, I don't think it's too bad.

XD Yeah, they're nasty, nasty mechs when they're on the battlefield. But really, they're like child soldiers. Born into war, never known peace, and forced to kill without really understanding the consequences. Their mindset's weird because everyone other than themselves is ... not really a person. So they don't feel bad about killing. Shriek sees everyone as prey, Ash sees everything as filth to be burned away and Morningstar is so racist that killing off the mostly ground-bound bots doesn't even phase her. There's a /reason/ behind their psychoticness XD;
