Description Humanized version of The Fallen and Mikaela Banes from 's Transformers fanfiction, May We Never Let Go.



In chapter 25, 26 and 27 of the fanfic, Nemesis Prime captures Mikaela in order to force the Autobots to hand over the Allspark. He tortures and brutally murders the poor girl when the negotiation breaks down. Everyone thinks Mikaela is incinerated, but someone else secretly saves her before the heat of cannon fire reaches her broken body.


Psi (The Fallen) doesn't like Nemesis at all, and he wants to destroy Nemesis by using the Allspark's power as well. That's why Psi decides to save Mikaela's life so he can bring her back to Sam and the Autobots as a peace offer. If everything goes well, he may have the chance to borrow the Allspark's power and get rid of that annoying Nemesis.




The concept of Psi's human form is loosely based on this picture by *ThornQueen . I totally love how she wrote The Fallen in her stories... He's so funny and adorable! So yeah, I just had to draw something for him...

With enough love and imagination, ANYTHING can happen in this fandom.

Well, these two characters aren't really a couple, but their interaction in this fanfiction is just so funny and cute. The Fallen's character in the fanfic is very different from that old, grouchy bot in the movie. If you want to read something long and good, you can check that author's stories out. She's one of my favorite fanfic authors.

Well, the Fallen in that fanfiction is more like Unicron's servant. His character is quite interesting in the fanfic.

Hey Tanya, I know that you posted this picture way back in September and now it's March... I can only say that I am truly sorry for the long wait on my comment. I did not think it would take this long to get around to it, and I'm honestly ashamed for my tardiness. This picture has been sitting in my inbox for months, watching me with its accusing eyes while I fawn over how much I love it and fret over the lack of time I have had to concentrate on writing the comment it deserves.

Finally, after months of agonizing over the lack of time, I have the time to concentrate on writing a comment worthy of this stunningly haunting masterpiece~

Truly, when you first posted this pic, I think my heart stopped. I know you hinted that this picture was coming before you posted it, and like every time you drop a hint like that, I fret and wonder and fantasize for hours over what the picture might be. You know I have a terrible habit of thinking too much, and when it comes to your art, my thoughts go absolutely wild! When you finally posted this... well, like I said, my heart stopped. I was in so much shock, maybe I died for a second or two. All of my wonderings did not do this picture justice!

Even now, seven months later, as I go back to admire this picture and gush over the many details I am in love with, the same stunning feeling of amazement strikes me. Mikaela's broken body breaks my heart when i see it. Psi freaks me out. The way you chose to portray him here... *whistle* There are no words for the brilliance of it.

Every piece of art you post is always a treat for the eyes. It's fair to stay that you are easily one of the top humanized!TF artists on dA. I don't think there is anyone who has a more extensive gallery full of such amazing figures, nor do I think there is anyone quite so energetic about crack pairings as you are. Your skills are practically legendary, and I am immensely proud to call you a friend. Every time you post something, the art just gets better and better. The visuals are more stunning, the colours are eye-catching, the emotions and power that you invest in the images are so real that they become palpable. Your talent definitely lies in the darker, angstier pictures. There is something about the way you capture the tone of the story, the emotion of the characters, the darkness of the setting- it can be seen in your fanart for Red Alert/Shockwave and a few of the Moonracer/Perceptor pieces.

You've mentioned in the past that you enjoy dark, angsty stories, and that interest shows through in the amazing quality of your darker-toned fanart pieces.

This picture right here is another fantastic example.

First, I want to talk about Mikaela. Even though I know she isn't dead in the actual story, it still breaks my heart to see her so broken and bloody in this picture. Although I do love a good bloody story, and I tend to be a bit of a sadist when I write, it never ceases to amaze me how you can draw on my heartstrings with your powerful pictures. The poor girl here looks so small. She looks dead. The expression on her face is so sad! Even the way her body is curled up, just like an animal after it's been beaten...

And in contrast to her broken, bloody figure, there's the Fallen holding her! He's just so... so... Frightening! The way you chose to portray him here is intense and fantastic! The picture certainly wouldn't have been the same in you chose to draw him as he normally appeared in my art, as the grey-skinned man. This version is far more visually striking and adds to the darkness, fear, and confusion of that moment.

I adore how you took a vague picture of mine, showing Psi as nothing more than a cloak wrapped around Unicron, and you shaped that idea into something incredible. The corpse-like grey-blue of his hands is disturbing, death-like. Like a Grim Reaper grabbing a victim to drag them into the afterlife- which works with this picture, seeing how the Fallen is holding on to Mikaela rather tightly. The cloak adds to that dark Grim Reaper persona. He's mysterious, a monster underneath, but possibly too frightening for us to behold so he's hidden beneath the dark billowing folds of a voluminous cloak.

The expression, though. The face the peers out from the darkness of the hood truly make this picture a frightening thing to behold. That one glowing amber eye and a mouth full of sharp teeth. *shudders* How you ever took that faces from the drawing I did and transformed it into something that truly makes cold shivers go down my back... You have the magic touch, my friend.

In reading the comments for this picture, I've seen a lot of interesting things. A couple of comments mention that Psi looks a lot like the creature used by a band called Disturbed. I looks it up and it's surprising how similar their faces are! But, may I say, your version of Psi looks way more scary. Although, now that I think about it, there are a couple of songs by that band that psi might actually like listening to...

One of my favourite comments was about an ultimate crack pairing between Mikaela and Psi. I just about died when I read that! XD At first I thought there was absolutely no way that Psi could ever develop feelings for Mikaela, and Mikaela would be smart to keep away from Psi as much as possible. But I've had months to ponder it, and now it doesn't seem so farfetched. Maybe that kind of drama might appear in the story some day. What a messed up pairing that would be! XD

Those silly thoughts aside, I just wanted to finish this comment off with saying how much I adore this picture! Almost as much as I adore you! Words cannot begin to describe how much I love all the art you do. Thank you so much for taking the time to create this amazing masterpiece. I will treasure it forever~

You're very welcome, hon. You know, this picture will never be created without your wonderful story. I totally enjoyed the dark twists and engaging plot you did with your fics, and I just had to draw something after reading that scene. You just know how to control a reader's vulnerable nerves and weak heart with your brilliant storytelling skills, and every time I read a new chapter from you I found it difficult to turn off my computer screen and go back to attend to all the boring chores in real life. Your imaginary world is so captivating, it's so hard to forget all the wonderful/dark/intriguing scenes you've created in your stories.

I really, really adored the way you wrote Psi in your recent chapters. He was so evil and cute at the same time. That's why I enjoyed the interactions between Psi and Mikaela so much. If anybody is holding a "most attractive villain" contest out there, I'll definitely nominate your Psi. Who doesn't love a funny guy like him? Β

Nice job! Now this is making me think of Mikaela/The Fallen as a pairing, which I've never thought of before.

I have to admit that at first glance, I thought that was Random Blitzwing.

LOL! I guess it would freak everyone out if these two end up becoming a couple... Although I admit I won't object the idea if it really happens.

As to the Fallen's face... I thought of Random Blitzwing right away when I first saw the concept art done by *ThornQueen . The Fallen described in the fanfic is an adorable crazed creature, so it makes sense that he would look like Random Blitzwing since they're both cute in their unique, crazy way.

And thanks so much for the kind comment! I have to thank *ThornQueen for making Psi a charming, devilish evil creature in her stories. I was so inspired by those chapters and I just had to draw this.

And thanks so much for the kind words! Many of my fanart pieces are inspired by the fanfictions I love. To me, drawing fanart for those stories is like a way to review those chapters in the form of art. I'm really happy to know that more people get to read those fics because of these art works.

OHmyGOD. I think I love Psi! He is funny, in the most twisted, inapropriate manner! I just I shouldn't be so amused by him- its probably going to come back and bite me in the ass. But I actaully had a naww thought/ohmigodhesaveeddddher when he poofed back with Mikaela!

He's doing it for completly selfish reasons, and mostly to save his-and his masters- skin- but I can't help but love him- I think its how she writes his sense of humor...I also was giggling big time becuase my Historical studies are focused on Egypt and when I first read that chapter we were zoned in on death and burial so all the potrayals of the gods were so funny to read.

You are absolutly AMAZING! If I had as much talent as your pinky I'd be happy

Aww, thanks so much for this amazing comment, hon! I didn't know The Fallen could be this adorable until I read the WE series. I totally fell in love with his evil cuteness after reading these recent chapters... Yeah, the motive behind his action is completely selfish since he would be screwed if he lets Nemesis cause more harm to Earth and the deities who live on the planet, but his humor is totally awesome and it's hard not to love his character in the story.

Wow, so you've been studying Egyptian culture recently? That's so cool! I always think their culture is fascinating, and I was crazy about those Egypt gods when I was little. So I was grinning like a happy fangirl whenever I see those gods and goddesses show up.

Thanks again for the love and support, sweetie! Glad you liked this picture this much~

Another intense image from you, and the atmosphere is just amazing. How you do so, I don't know, but you're amazing at getting so much emotion across through these characters. If this were the robotic form, I doubt it would have such an impact, so I'm glad they're humanised here. I love the dark whisks of the brush, it creates this 'death' [Grim Reaper] feel.

Lol, I did think of Grim Reaper when I drew that black cape in this picture. It's kind of ironic because The Fallen steals Mikaela from The Death's grip by saving her life, yet he looks like The Death himself because of his Grim Reaper alike human form.

And thanks so much for the kind words, my friend. I think some talented artists can still depict the characters' emotions perfectly even though the characters are robots, but since I lack such skills I'll just keep drawing them as humans.

The Fallen is meant to look freaky because he would cry if anyone thinks he looks adorable. Oh well, his character depicted in the fanfic is still pretty cute and adorable in his own unique way, but he would still prefer having a not-so-human freaky look here. He's evil like that.
