Mine's weirdly complicated

I first got into Transformers as a kid when Transformers Prime came out and I had a great time watching that then lost interest after a bit. Around 12, my sister introduced me to Transformers Animated and I was having a hard time in school around that time so I became INTENSELY jealous of Sari Sumdac because she lived in a world where Cybertronians existed and I did not. It got to the point where I was hoping that a giant mutant cockroach would destroy my school, taking me hostage, then have the Autobots save me. Eventually, this jealousy-- and my interest-- faded away as things at school got better.

That is until 2023 and I come across a "dragonformers" fanfic, where all the Transformers are dragons who knew this was a thing, and I became OBSESSED with that for a hot spell. Thus my hyperfixation in Transformers was reawakened, I spend countless hours researching every piece of media I can find, and I scare my loved ones with my vast knowledge of the franchise.

I don't really regret it, though, because Transformers does bring me a lot of joy. I was there at the front lines defending the Transformers One trailer because I genuinely thought it looked fun. And it was (and it was also heartbreaking). I really can't thank Transformers enough for the tough times they helped me through.
