Optimus is doing tango with himself, he looks terrified up at his battle masked self. Behind them is Blitzwing's shadow and the text "Stalker's tango".

Choking hazard #blitzop #valveplug #blitzwing #optimus I've had this idea since act 1 of "This was supposed to be a fling" but I never got around to it. Cw unsafe breath play with no aftercare

Blitz asks Optimus to choke him, placing his hands on their neck.

Optimus does, Blitz goads him into doing it harder.

"A good soldier does what is necessary" Ultra Magnus tells Optimus in his mind. Blitzwing is trembling, barely able to breathe. Until he switches to Wings shouting "STOP!"

Optimus stops, reeling back in horror. Blitzwing's voice is glitchy, his neck deformed with dent marks. They dismiss Optimus' concern, transforming and flying away to deal with it on their own. Optimus stares at his trembling hands.

Blackarachnia, Therphos and Arachnus without helmets. They have extra limbs growing out of their faces and in the middle of their skull where circuitry should be there are eyes running alongside it.

I need to tell u how much I love #blitzop this ramble has been in my mind for months and I could not fit all of it. Also this is how I find out alt-text has a character limit.

A long ramble about Blitzwing x Optimus (because I like it).

First of all, as a rarepair with little to no basis in canon, you can take it so many different ways depending on what your interpretation of the characters are.

Take Blitzwing as an example: Depending on whether you view him as a singlet, median or system you have countless ways to tackle the dynamic.

As a singlet (non-system) he can be conflicted how to approach and act around Optimus.
As a median (the grey area between singlet and plural) his different facets can have different feelings from each other while all still being Blitzwing.
As a system his alters can all have different thoughts and feelings from each other.

Personally I write him as an OSDD system with fully distinct alters as opposed to non-distinct alters (also called facets within the community) as that's what I'm most familiar with.

My take on the pairing:
Blitzwing is drawn to Optimus' gall and defience when faced against Megatron.
Blitzwing initiates the relationship both as a way to covet Optimus but also to taint him.
Conflicted over his goodness, craving it yet hating how weak it makes him feel.
Optimus values him as a person when he must be a tool.

Optimus on the other hand is drawn to Blitzwing as a taboo act of freedom.
As someone who wraps much of his identity in doing the right thing it's interesting to explore him making a purely selfish choice.
He clings onto the idea that this is temporary because otherwise he has to confront why this won't work.
Blitzwing gives him space to be a person and not an Autobot.

The conflict I find compelling is opposite unbreakable loyalties to factions that do not deserve them. Finding humanity they denied themselves through being together, yet in a way that's incompatible with their identity.
(I am consequently constantly writing dramas)

But there's so many places you can take the pairing!
Like who likes who (A little comic of Optimus and Zing having crushes on each other while Blitz is…

Out of curiosity I checked how spiders reproduce bc fanon wise every insecticon usually just gains an ovipositor and- Well. #blitzop #valveplug (?)

"How big is that spike?" Blitzwing asks posing casually. "None existent leave me alone," Arachnus answers hunched.

Candlelight7 [Insert 18+ emoji] @candlelight7.bsky.social · 11/06/2026

"How would blitzop work if this was the spider au. Would blitzop and op still get together despite being arachnus prime?" Enemies with benefits is probably the closest match. There is a draw but Arachnus has his priorities and that's not getting involved with Decepticons. #blitzop #maccadam

"Are you sure I can't convince you to join?" Asks Blitzwing, his faceplate white as he's in his pre-triple changer frame. "Give us the payment and leave, Blitzwing," Arachnus Prime says coldly.

Theraphos is perched in the air his spider limbs punched into the surrounding buildings as he screams at the tiny humans trying to hug him. Blackarachnia is trying to pacify them but is losing her patience turning to Arachnus to assist with them.

Sentinel Prime but spider form akin to Blackarachnia. His color scheme is gold, black, teal and dark teal. Other than the clawed hands and feet and spider legs he has the same body structure as normal.

Sentinel's spider alt-mode. He is very fluffy with big limbs and a large head.

"Tfa: opps all spiders au" The very correct conclusion to the fact that Sentinel would've 100% become a spider also if Optimus went back for Elita-1. #maccadam #tfa

Blackarachnia pulling Arachnus Prime and a spider-fied Sentinel Prime down into an embrace laughing.

Blitzwing has Optimus pinned beneath him in pillows and blankets, staring into his eyes with his handcuffs behind Optimus' head. Optimus looks horrified and devastated.
“I can be your hound, your little pet of a carrier. Anything, I can be anything as long as I get to stay in your life,” Blitz begs.

""How bout now?" By luluyam is giving huge Blitzop vibes I gotta say, most of it from Blitzwing's pov but I can see a few lines as being Optimus." I have literally never heard a more Blitz song in my life thank you anon. #blitzop #blitzwing #optimus #maccadam

"Could this be LOVE or another obsession?" The text reads as Blitzwing has his head hovering by Optimus' face, Optimus is in grey with his eyes closed unaware of Blitz's turmoil.
"God! I want to know you" reads the lyrics breaking up the two frames.
"Scared of what I might do" is next to Blitz's face, overwhelmed by love and scared of the intensity of his feelings, he is entirely in red.

I have learned through my university library I have access to and can find a lot of articles about psychology! I have also learned if I read anyone mentioning False Memory I shall explode up.

A rabbit sceptically looking at a sign reading "Article about DID I do not agree with". "Hm, this doesn't seem true but I should do my due diligence and check the sources," the rabbit thinks. The next frame they're screaming as they fall into the rabbit hole.
FIVE HOURS LATER
"I AM GOING TO PISS ON FMSF'S GRAVE!" The rabbit screams as they crawl out of the rabbit hole with blood shot eyes.
"Did you learn something about DID?" An off-screen voice asks.
The rabbit snaps out of it, deflating with huge watery eyes, "... No."
