Comment on Knock Off

    You're right about the characteristics being amplified in the clones! In the original outline, Mim was called 'sub' as in submissive/subservient. He's naive and follows orders without question, and does whatever he can to appease those around him. Mim actually means "to be silent" or something like that. I would have left his name as 'sub' but ... I didn't like the balance of letters? We would have had Sarc, sadie, sub, and macho and it just didn't feel good enough to me, lol.

    Anyway, thank you so much for your comment!!! I hope you enjoy the rest of the fic 💖

      Yeah, I looked up the meaning of mim after- so like when knock out kind of acts suck-up to Megatron or the like, except without his other personality traits, it makes the demureness genuine instead of cunning, so it makes mim just kind of a sweetheart.

      Yeah the whole everyone is s except for macho would be annoying, especially since that would mean you’d have to think up another s name for the last clone. Also lbr...that poor bot does not deserve to be named Sub and all the jokes that would entail, lol

      I’m so curious to see what last clone is gonna take on. Intelligence/doctor-ishness/curiosity? Flirtatiousness?

      Anyway can’t wait to see the last chapter! This has been awesome!
