Talk:The Gloaming

Radiohead Reference

This is actually the second time a Radiohead song has been referenced in a story title in which Roberts' has had a hand in producing (see here). Therefore it might not be "just a coincidence." --NebulanFree 14:46, 24 April 2013 (EDT)

Roberts himself said it was. - Chris McFeely 18:25, 24 April 2013 (EDT)

I didn't see the citation on the note, hence my speculation. The citation has been added. --NebulanFree 03:20, 25 April 2013 (EDT)

Junk

Is there a roundabout TF:TM reference in here? Ratchet is talking about reattaching [Drift's] legs, while Tailgate busies himself with wiping down one of Magnus' legs with a cloth. It's somewhat evocative of Ultra Magnus' reassembly by the Junkions. --NebulanFree 15:04, 24 April 2013 (EDT)

I think if you're trying to pin a reference on something and the best you can do is describe it as "somewhat evocative," I think you need to step back, think, and then abandon this course of action. --ItsWalky 18:34, 24 April 2013 (EDT)

Fair enough.--NebulanFree 03:16, 25 April 2013 (EDT)

Tailgate

Apologies if i'm nitpicking, but shouldn't Tailgate be under Autobot, since underwent the rite of autobrand (or something similar, i can't remember) during the annual. Admittedly it didn't go well but.... Mini-master 15:29, 25 April 2013 (EDT)

IIRC, the ceremony in the annual was a kind of 'well done for passing your Autobot Code test, you're well on the way to becoming an Autobot' kind of thing, rather than his final induction as an Autobot. He's still not wearing an insignia, for instance. Jalaguy 15:50, 25 April 2013 (EDT)

Yeah, Tailgate's not quite there yet.--NebulanFree 20:36, 25 April 2013 (EDT)
