now this is a human robot cosplay I can get behind
A 'con went to a con today ✈️
Imagine Starscream learning about human behaviour and mostly the internet.
And not on the 'aww he secretly still has a heart of gold' (honestly hate that). I mean in a way he only did it cause he was bored and only had human internet available.
And also for new insults he can use on Megatron without being understood so he can get away with it (he still gets abused cause Meg knew what he said was an insult) and cause when he says Cybertronian insults to humans they don't understand. He's just stepping up his roast battle game.
And soon others join in because they can't let Starscream have all the fun. And then Autobots (I know they hang out with humans but I think that they didn't dig into the 'mean' stuff) join in cause the battlefield was starting to be dominated by the decepticons due to the enormous metal damage.
And that's how all Cybertronians started to use human insults. Yeah I headcanon this now
Sometimes I feel like Starscream has a large piece of his mind or processor missing.
Cause I genuinely think that the lack of knowledge, to certain concepts that are so basic, that he shows is concerning. I feel like somethings just blocking that side of his processor causing him to be an absolute idiot.
Like same Starscream, but man that's not how it works.
I really want to dissect him basically.
I'm at work (not really I'm too young) and Starscream is the only thing keeping me awake.
I'm honestly getting better at poses just need to find a way to make the head fit in (I had to glue the face on top of the old one) for the big one.
I was thinking about people and this popped in my head and I was like you know what. He would, he so would say this. Especially to Megatron
And he's so right to.
Don't know if this is already a quote but yeah 👍
Me explaining Armada Starscream and Megatron being the biggest version of how they are like a father and son but obviously abusive.
My Dad: They should get married.
Me: Did you not hear what I said. First of all I was saying how Megatron is like an abusive adoptive father. And it's really abusive. What?
Dad: Yeah they should get married and kiss.
Me in utter horror trying to change the subject away: So you know Soundwave he's my second favouri---
Dad: He's their son whose spoilt.
And I'm currently choking on air and I tried changing the subject again: You know Starscream has heels
Dad: No he doesn't
And then I show him and he goes: So he is definitely the wife. -or SMT
So yeah my dad ships megastar or megstar idk and somewhere in the relationship he did agree with it being toxic but ig he likes it. But he also calls them both chickens.
I don't agree with this the only time I interact with the ship is if Starscream looks really nice in the drawing which is unfortunately a lot cause ppl draw too good to not like
I thought that if Megatron isn't the reason why he is like this then it was something in the past and it really correlates with his personality for me. This is like my little au hopefully will make some memes on it in the future also this isn't inspired by someone else so if there is someone out there who has done this ig great minds think alike.
If you can't read some words ( neither can I 😢) just comment or smt else I'm too lazy to do it here.
And Tumblr keeps blurring the pictures man I might try and see if I can get a better pic on. Edit nvm it was when I was typing this it was blurry but ig when you post it unblurs or smt
Little Skybound Starscream Character analysis or breakdown of SMT that I saw nobody mention. Bear with me.
So the basics are - Starscream was first Ulchtar and changes name after his friend died and his eyes also turned red. So we have that down but if you look at the words Starscream says
'My name is Starscream' but also when we learn he is still alive after his fight with soundwave he says
'Starscream that's my name' which mirrors the words when he changed his name. Also it's more of a reassurance that that truly is his name but there's nobody around so the one he's trying to convince is himself. If that's not enough he chose his name from Genvo's last words and in the picture above he is saying them again to Genvo's first words that we as readers hear. (So that gives a lot more depth and it may not seem that much but further down it does help tie some ideas together.)
Also in this scene it could be viewed as Starscream arguing against the voice he hears almost as if he doesn't remember that he had a different name before and is probably why he himself hasn't brought it up afterwards because to him it was a hallucination that got his name wrong. Or it could simply be him not wanting to remember it as he knows the last him would regret what he has turned into. But I do think he might have forgotten some things if the past at least and that may be due to Megatron but I'll do that part in a different post.
So my point is - Ulchtar and Starscream are not 'exactly' the same person they are like different points in life but instead of it being like a sequel it's more like an entire reset to the story.
Sorry if my writing is bad I'm literally a kid and tho I cook in my English writing NOW it was not without failing really badly I EVEN CHEATED MAN.
But I spotted the name thing out as I first saw it and I connected the dots and it did in fact almost make me cry but is anyone going to see this.
NOOOOO!
I love when they give this sort of bat shape to him. Quick design I made.
Headcanon/au or whatever idk how to explain
So we all know how Starscream always changes his frame in the comics.
What if it was not only due to finding what feels right for him but also due to his immortal spark.
His clone Sunstorm has his own powers but I feel like it doesn't ruin his body as it let's the radioactivity be released. Whilst in Starscream's case the only way to release his energy would be to die and we all know how much he stops that from happening.
So with barely any release his spark slowly deteriorates his current body but not in a really gory way simply that functions will lag and maybe if left to long energon would slowly burst inside of him like when we get a bloody nose but for him his eyes may burst.
But he changes frame so much that it never got to the point where his whole body exploded and all the other times it was brushed off as damage due to fights (Megatron).
And the energy does still get released as he's died a few times but nobody knew cause they simply changed his frame in I guess a spark transfer as a last resort and it worked every time.
Me: Why do you hate Starscream
Dad: I don't hate him
Dad: I LOVE EATING CHICKENS
Me: Bro what
Context my dad refers to him as a chicken 20 times a day (if I'm lucky)
Teenage girl and I like- marvel, DC , transformers Jurassic park (dinosaurs in general), Star warsAnd others. Basically a huge nerd ig
