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!
Starscream probably if he saw the meme
Could work the other way around if he's trying to deny it but we know it ain't true
My 4th wall Starscream but he can now travel dimensions.
He's blasting every Megatron with a rocket launcher as that universes Starscream is getting beat up.
Whilst wearing shades of course.
He'd just be like "You're very welcome, now do you need therapy or would that just make it worse" but just pops out of existence straight away.
But if it was SG it would be hilarious like -
My Starscream popping out of a portal, rocket launcher at hand "Fear not weaker and more pathetic me I sha... WAIT WHAT THE FRAG IS THIS!!!!!?????"
And then you have Megatron just grilling Starscream to take a break and have some energon (concerned father moment).
"FRAG NOW I'M JEALOUS! I DON'T GET PAID ENOUGH FOR THIS! FRAG YOU!!"
Pops out of existence whilst Megatron and Starscream are frozen.
But he pops back in a few seconds after, head poking out shouting "I hope you have a happy life as well bye!"
Me after using my last wish to triple rent for single mothers of 4.
Suddenly remembers Armada Starscream: NOO NOOOOOO NOOOOOO PLEASE I DIDN'T MEAN TO AHHHHHHHHH
Skywarp: Bet you're mom abandoned you
Starscream: Oh my mom died long ago.
Skywarp: Yeah well I'd also die to get away from you
Starscream: I killed her to relieve her from her misery and the loss of a functional mind. And to save myself.
Skywarp: HOLY FRAGGING PRIMUS I WAS JOKING
Skywarp: Dude I'm concerned am I next?
I swear if Skybound make it clear that Megatron is a victim and uses it to excuse his actions and they do that for the rest of the characters
They're probably not going to do it for Starscream knowing Hasbro they'd stop anything like that from happening
Which pisses me off cause yeah Starscream is also an abuser but that's due to abuse. Megatron is literally like that but his abuse to Starscream is generational and he still gets redeemed.
Like make it make sense Hasbro.
(Me completely lost on who's dead or not) Sigma is 100 percent alive frfr. Try not to mind the abnoxious highlighter colouring in the first pic okay they were all I had.
I headcanon that Armada Starscream can't read properly and even then the only words he can read are apart of battle strategies.
And then in Cybertron Starscream learns literally every language (speaking, writing, reading being absolutely perfect) that exists cause he remembers how he barely knew one and it's super humiliating.
Kind of plays with the 4th wall breaker Starscream but in a completely different direction.
As in due to his immortal spark being like a constant in every universe you have this one flux where they all are in eachothers bodies for a split second.
They've seen the other dimensions, they understood what it was and then bam it was gone just like that. They can't recall what they witnessed or what secrets they came across.
Except for one of the Starscreams who now is aware of the other dimensions and also the writers and us the audience.
He can't see us or talk to us though. But he's become less energetic to everything until he cracks under the pressure of knowing his pain is simply for amusement and starts to find a way to reach us/writers to extract his revenge.
And he has a sword (very important, this is).
Also he has this glitchy power I don't know exactly what it would do but I feel like he'd be able to glitch his body to other dimensions whilst still being active in his so he can't be hit most of the time (there will be a massive drawback obviously, can't make it that easy).
I lied I couldn't find a way to add the primes (yet tho DW) and I didn't feel like doing TC and SW yet so more shockwave content. Part of the au in previous posts. The next post of the au is going to be with soundwave to match with this (it will give more information).
So yeah my reason that empurata isn't a thing is that he's younger here and also the council isn't able to do that also it doesn't exist. That's why I kept some similarities to his usual face with the colours and soundwave.
My plan is to post some intros and lore of this au for a bit and then I'll stop so I can practice drawing so I can give more content and also maybe writing.
Teenage girl and I like- marvel, DC , transformers Jurassic park (dinosaurs in general), Star warsAnd others. Basically a huge nerd ig
