Skybound Transformers - Blog Posts

eyeless old married couple

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.

The starscream brain rot be hitting hard. And I have another song idea that fits him which has turned into a character analysis as well.

'The Mind Electric' with the bits that goes

"Someone help me understand what's going on inside my mind" could be the change of Starscream's mentality due to the normalisation of his abuse and how he views it as -normal-. And if it's Skybound it could be whatever the hell Megatron did to force Starscream to kill the prisoners when he first joined.

"Doctor I can't tell if I'm not me" literally the post war Starscream being paranoid he's not the same person at all as he was before like a clone maybe and the fact that he can't form connections with anyone. And again in Skybound it's the gap between Ulchtar and Starscream.

"See how I laugh at you" resembles Starscream constant undermining of others to make him feel better due to his insecurities and also the fact that his whole life he was laughed at so he does it back similar to the "abuse cycle".

"No you'll never understand" right after that bit shows how nobody has been in his situation and nobody tried to understand or reach out to help him mentally without blaming him for it or even just completely brushing it off. Also highlights how nobody believes him when he tries to talk about the abuse (Hashtag did tho even said how she believes Megatron who she looked up to a bit ig hurt him, a complete 180 of what everyone else does and the fact that she is close to Megatron but isn't brushing it off says so much -nobody has mentioned this from what I've read which is weird cause it just shows how clear Starscream's PTSD is (also fuck Hasbro for taking it away from us)). Saying how he brought it upon himself and that he kept trying to usurp Megatron meant he deserved it. And again shows how he can't grow attachments cause nobody views him as a victim only a failure who deserves his punishment so they don't find reason behind his actions. Not trying to "understand" why he hurts people or in the songs case "laugh" at them because they don't see him as a product of abuse that needs to be cared for. Only a bot who's worse than Megatron ever was.

Or this version

He is such a child I love my son so much

The way it's like 'get real' is just so childish to me I can't stop giggling. I guess it's another reason to add to my Starscream is a angsty young teen list.

Also the insult is literally like teenage movie insults you can't lie.

I know everyone and their mom is posting this saying about the bitch part but I'm still going to have my say.

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!

It's International Women's Day, gals!

Stay strong, fight like a girl
