Being a transformer fan is terrible and embarrassing in biology cause the words mean SMT completely different in the fandom
-
Teacher: This is the heart and inside it has these things called valves here's a close up to them
Me who's seen all the things said about what people want to do to the characters: THE WHAT!?
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
Soundwave and Starscream are just standing side by side in the nemesis whilst Megatron is talking about a new plan to destroy the autobots.
Starscream to us: Now you want to know why Soundy is standing right next to me. And no it's not cause we are supposed to. Listen hear and don't tell anyone I told you this or otherwise I'll be banned from the 4th wall. This guy right here can read minds but only at a close proximity like we are in now. See the producers have never made it clear, those lazy afts, I really hate their fleshy guts.
And then you slowly see Soundwave facing Starscream with absolute horror.
And after a whole minute Starscream goes: Wait if he can read minds. And I just broke the 4th wall. And the scene didn't pause. And he's standing right next to me. And he always reads my mind that means. Oh frag.
But during this part the scene did freeze so Soundwave didn't hear that part. Starscream is hyperventilating worried he'll be experimented with.
Soundwave is concerned. Cause he thinks starscream has gone full schizophrenic mode and not half anymore.
Me: Oh my doomed robot relationship that has so much potential
?: Oh you talking about Jetfire and Starscream
Me: NOOOO I'M TALKING ABOUT METALHAWK. THERE COULD HAVE BEEN SOO MUCH YET IT ENDED TOO SOON. STARSCREAM COULD OF HAD A SHOULDER TO LEAN ON AND I NEED THEM TO HUG AND THEY DESERVE TO BE ALIVE TOGETHER. METALHAWK COULD "FIX" HIM. WHY STARSCREAM DO YOU KEEP FUCKING THINGS UP FOR YOURSELF HE WAS SO GOOD TO YOU?(I know not really fix him but I like how he definitely could make him see wrong in the way he thinks and does things)
My rare pair that is the only time I go out of my way to see it as a ship.
(At least it isn't as rare pair as that one person on here that's whirl x starscream respect the grind tho)
So Starscream is around 25 ish in human years in G1 and you take away the war he was definitely around 17 when he joined the war and lost Skyfire. Now when you're 17 you'll be in college/university and I think that's similar to the Cybertron thing in G1 the show.
Starscream goes on an exploration with Jetfire away from Cybertron and I'd like to think you have to be a certain age requirement and qualification to pass and G1 Starscream did go but in Skybound when Skyfire leaves Starscream doesn't go with him and he's seen as if following Skyfire's carer path. So he's definitely in his early teens and he didn't join the war in the beginning so he's been fighting for less than 200 years (which might be around 3 years in human terms except these guys age faster when they are younger)
So whilst G1 Starscream may be young Skybound is even younger and with my idea of Starscream and Ulchtar being a split personality with no memories of the other Starscream is mentally a 11 year old whose first action was killing and in total he would probably be around 12/15.
Thank you for joining my ted talk.
Redraw of the animated drawings with water colours.
Galaxy Force Starscream the lovable tragic asshole you are. I had to squish his face cause either made it too big. First time drawing him and those lips do not disappoint.
Water colour pens are good but I just can't use them properly without leaving marks making it look ugly.
Guys I swear I will post doodles soon but hear me out on this song idea/analysis like last time
Thanks, I Hate It by Simple Creatures but it's about Starscream 's and Megatron's relationship (not romantically unless you view it as such) from Starscream's pov.
"Am I good enough for you" portrays that no matter how he acts, loyal, disloyal, submissive or resistant Megatron will always seek the opposite or still view it and therefore him as disgusting making him the perfect punching bag simply for Megatron's very own amusement. In every universe, with the main ones with this problem being armada and prime, he gets treated as somebody with potential by Megatron yet he also denies Starscream that growth.
"I don't owe you anything" is something that Starscream himself would only think in his anger towards Megatron but may have only truly processed those words as true after the war (in the versions he survives for a bit after, such as him in the Windblade comics). This reflects how he -and every other abuse victim- doesn't and shouldn't offer their abuser anything no matter how much your life is centred and controlled by them, they don't deserve you.
"But I gave you everything" shows the fact that Starscream sometimes and maybe in the beginning of everything did try so hard to please Megatron. But he didn't need to do all of that as it only buried the hole he was getting swallowed by even larger and more difficult to escape from.
"Watch you pile it up and sing - Thanks I hate it" summarises Megatron's mentality and actions when it comes down to Starscream. Megatron will rarely accept something he gives and when he does praise is rarely given which may mirror any abusive relationship (I view it as an abusive adopted Father and their dysfunctional son that becomes even worse with the abuse - though see it however you want).
"No you're never satisfied" is Megatron's constant berating and thirst of Starscream's agony.
"Now you wanna run and hide" resembles how in the many times Megatron has been redeemed he has never apologised to the person he influenced and corrupted the most. The exception of this was Earthspark but even then Megatron was warning everyone how Starscream is worse than he ever was. He showed care for the other decepticons well being yet was inconsiderate of Starscream's. He's too scared to face the truth of his actions or view it as important to his path to peace, therefore hiding himself from his second in command as if everything will be dropped and sorted out.
The point is- Starscream should be accountable for his actions only if Megatron will be as well and if we brush everything he's done then we should do the same for Starscream. Yet Megatron should still face him either way if he truly is a "good guy". Starscream deserves that closure even though he thinks that killing and taking his place will ease everything it wouldn't.
He's so frustrating I can't.
So I think that due to his spark being immortal/indestructible he has this natural fear of death. Even though he doesn't know he is immortal his body or even his mind(subconsciously or his spark) controls him when in some situations that could get him killed as he will still feel the pain of death but have to live through it over and over so it ,and in terms he, will do anything to escape that fate without realising why. And even though like "fear of death no shit" I feel like it's something that would suffocate him at the mere thought of it and he doesn't know why. Basically you get the fear and times it by a billion. This could explain why he acts so unlike himself in certain situations.
Like imagine him having full breakdowns cause he thought of ways he could die too much due to his paranoia and it physically and mentally burns as his spark will do *anything* to stop the possibility. Also could be seen as a defense mechanism, if they don't kill you how will they know they can do it again to hurt you more. Especially with Megatron cause I think he would be the reason it gets worse throughout the war as Starscream knows Megatron wants to hurt him not just kill him so when you take out the factor of death. Megatron can do whatever he wants. But Starscream isn't even aware of all this even though the affects of it are taking over his life.
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!
What do you mean I simplified his design so I can draw him in this stupid pose like.......
The brain block be real guys. Also this gotta be my fav design for starscream like it's basically modern armada design
(Both have swords and make you cry
I swear why is it the versions that use swords that make you cry like Hasbro FREEEEE HIM)
Pure jokes of course tho
Side note- starscream is in the tags for a reason
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.
little piece of a little project that I'm finishing up. I predicted so much in Skybound about starscream like how he really was innocent and ig that doesn't seem like much but I also said he wouldn't even hurt a bug and guess what it was a major thing in his backstory. I also knew that Megatron had somehow forced him to kill didn't know exactly but yeah it would be an innocent or against codes. And guess what again, it happens. So I'm predicting a redemption arc (I'm coping okay) that he gets some crazy bpd as Megatron's hold on his mind gets erased or whatever that was and you have ulchtar and starscream and ulchtar wins or smt and starscream gets to see how the world actually works and happily ever after and ain't nobody going to see this.
Important news there was a song in my head but I forgot it and it kept me up at night cause I was imagining star dancing to it. Mourn. Edit : I found it
Posted this before but I only just realised it wasn't put up so here we go ig. No new content cause I just had a test but I'll try to add either some primes or TC and SW to the au.
For now I'll post some old art like this one tho I might make four more drawings.

Uh could I get some headcanons for Tfa Optimus and a human reader who sees him as a brotherly figure?
TFA Optimus Prime
Surprised but also not really. One could say heβs like the older brother of some of his teammates.
The human took one look and wentΒ βyeah that's my older brotherβ
Optimus takes them out on drives to catch up, tell him about the school, and their favorite hobbies
Optimus always encourages them and wants the human to do their best to succeed so that means the occasional talk about grades and curriculum, even ifΒ human is not as excited about the topic
Many speeches about the importance of education
As for hobbies, Optimus does not understand but heβs supportive to make up for it.
He will try out the hobby once to see if he likes it....occasionally it becomes his hobby too (more bonding moments)
If the human gets bullied, Optimus is real quick to lay down the law
He's the kind of older brother who doesnβt pick fights unless you push him (even then it's verbal) but he's there for the human, encouraging, and stands by them

i'm sick of fanfics with mic being the nice uwu sunshine empathetic emotional trope. let him be the mean little bitch he really is inside. he's an asshole. a bastard. he annoys his students. he punches old men (even though he deserved it). he contemplates attacking civilians simply because they annoy him. he threatens people with karaoke contests. he would probably write "LMAO" on his students tests instead of the typical "???" that most teachers do.
m,,, mafia miczawa they,,, they big arms. big arms are my weakness and their arms look so big ππ
lumberjack arms baby
my apologies. good luck
about half way it seems like!

I like to imagine that when Striker and Bee met for the first time (Striker was 5 and Bee was 4) they called each other "best friends" but didn't realize that they were half siblings until Optimus, (name), and Elita told them.
When Optimus and Elita found out they were expecting Bee it was like:
"...we fucked up"
"we did"
And during that time, Optimus and (name) were still together so the duo just decided to keep Bee's existence a secret.
(name) didn't find out about until after everything happened and she was pissed, and mostly hurt because he slept with another, sparked her up and didn't even bother to tell anyone!
But even though she was angry, (name) still cared for Bee like he was her own
Striker would sometimes ask why she has a half sibling or why Eilta is referred as her "other mother" but (name) would have a hard time trying to answer her because it it was always a sensitive topic for them.
Bee and Striker are like Mario and Luigi:
Though he's the youngest, Bee was slightly taller than Striker at such a young age despite her being older than him.
say less
hi!, could I join the deceptions? :3
No...offer me a head of an Autobot first
