A little preview of something I’m working on. I wonder what has Ghostscream so surprised?

Galvatron + trauma related headcanons

Rumble and Frenzy thought it’d be hilarious to show Galvatron ‘vore’ once, they were not prepared for him to have a panic attack at the very thought of being eaten.
He also does not like doors and houses shaped like mouths.
It’s surprisingly easy to guilt-trip him. This is likely due to the impact this left on him.
Flashing red lights also drive him to panic attacks as that was the primary visual torment Unicron used on him.
Likewise high pitched screeching noises unsettle him.
Being submerged or ‘smothered’ in something for too long also deeeeply upsets him as it makes him think of when he was helplessly submerged in plasma.
The very thought of being ‘controlled’ again shakes him to his core, so in order for him to do things for you, you simply have to word it like a ‘question’ that he has a choice in, even if he doesn’t. He’s generally compliant as long as he doesn’t feel trapped.
Just the thought of him losing agency over himself is pretty much a instant breakdown thing.
It’s for that reason Galvatron is deeply afraid of himself whenever he loses control during these breakdowns and he attacks anything and everything nearby.
Sometimes Galvatron does weird nonsensical things that make him seem ‘freaky’ to everyone around him, but he actually does them as occasional ‘checks’ to make sure he’s not being controlled again.
He’s not claustrophobic as long as he has a way out of a room/place he’s fine no matter the size but if he cannot escape then he will begin to panic and thrash.
His cannon is a comfort object due to being his primary weapon and thus the first thing he uses to defend himself. As long as he has it, he’s safe.
Sometimes due to the mental damage from the plasma he has migraines, it’s best not to touch him if he’s having one as often the pain drags up memories of Unicron attacking him so he might jump and hit you as a knee-jerk reaction.

Given his origin as a abused, mentally ill character I have made it a mission to ensure any and every Galvatron in any timeline/AU fits one of those two things, or both.

And it’s safe to say right now it’s been successful! Even for the Armada and RiD2001 timelines ideas have been had!

Sorry man haha.

Alright gimme a excuse to think of headcanons or just dump a bundle of headcanons OR even doodle!

Send me Galvatron-related asks!

If you don’t specify a AU/timeline I’ll automatically use my own verse/Extriverse Galvatron.

Well it’s the last day of ‘Kaijuly’ and I hadn’t once attempted to draw my hardly used Kaiju au, so here’s the AU’s Cyclonus and Galvatron in the style of the cute ‘Godzilland’ cartoon!

Two things to say here, first I love ur art and content and thanks for supplying the most scourge and other g1 unicronian content I’ve seen in a long time and all ur content is wonderful!! It’s so creative and v cool to see where ur ideas and writing go and for the second part I’m sorry you have to deal w that bitter ass anon like Anon… Buddy… no one asked for ur opinion in the Galvatron Love Zone

I’m glad you enjoy it! I love these three shitnuggets Hahahaa

They’re the perfect assholes! ~~And a special Scourge for you for mentioning him haha~~

Man I have so many ideas and such for writing, I can only hope to continue creating things of good quality for lovely people like you! Because there’s plenty waiting to be made haha!

Well the anons left me now, even if they did come back I wouldn’t bother responding to them, so it’s okay! It’s just hilarious how they acted like I’m the only one whose written several posts about a characters personality, when I’m most certainly not! Methinks they were truly the one “grasping at straws” to use to insult me with.

Galvatron… Love… Zone?
Well, aside from sounding like Cyclonus’s happy place I know what I’m changing my Deviantart tag to! Thank you! It’s a title/name I will be proud to uphold!

Yeah, wow, don’t know what that person’s problem is, but you’re having fun with a character you love, and that’s all that matters. It’s not like you’re hurting anybody. Sending some positive vibes your way dude 👍

Damn straight my dude!

Inspired by those images of snow leopards biting their own tails. Because Scourge would, but boy he’d attack you if you ever tried to tell.

God stop obsessing over Galvatron you’re freaking creepy. Galvatron was a one dimensional villain deal with it kid :/

That’s where you’re fucking wrong bucko.

He’s not a one dimensional villain, the fandom just likes thinking he is.
I literally have a whole tag where I point out all these aspects of him that AREN’T one dimensional.

Do you go around and tell people to stop obsessing over Soundwave? Megatron? Starscream? Because they were just as “”””one dimensional”””” as Galvatron if you’re really gonna pull that load of shit.

He literally deserves so much more than he gets in this hypocritical fandom and if I have to be the one lone person trying to get everyone to notice all the canon aspects of him that get ignored then so fucking be it.

Every other character can get love and it’s not “fucking creepy” when they do. You just proved my point that I need to love him MORE because of asshats like you who clearly don’t know much about him.

Sometimes he still hears Unicron and the atrocities he whispers…
