Head empty just the thought of Starscream being so bored that he starts to go through almost all of earth's music. And then when he finally finds songs and genres that he likes he slowly starts to also have favourite artists. (Soundwave is aware of this new thing Starscream has going on but he thinks that he's gonna sabotage Megatron with music somehow but he can't figure out how)
And of course anything Starscream likes is automatically better than the rest. So when decepticons plan to attack some festivals (due to G1 shenanigans it's probably super normal for it to be a weekly occurrence), Starscream will already know if any artist that he likes is going to be there (he always keeps tabs on their activity and tours). So if they aren't, then okay no problem but if they are he's a hundred percent snitching to the autobots. Something like
Megatron: We must enforce fear onto the humans! We'll attack them at their places of joy -insert stadium or something-
Starscream internally: Wait that's where -random band- is going to have their first performance in 5 years. I've counted each second down to this very performance I can't let Megabum ruin this glorious moment for me.
At the Autobots base
Optimus Prime: Autobots I have called you here due to this anonymous message we have received about some Decepticon activity that's apparently taking place soon
Pops it on the screen
Jazz reading what it says: Megaglitch- yeah it's definitely Starscream who sent that, not really anonymous anymore. But why would he tell us this, it's not like him to care about human activity unless it's a plan to kill Megatron for the gazillionth time
Cliffjumper: Probably an artist that he likes is playing there, I mean there's this band that hasn't performed in 5 years playing there that I like, was hoping to go watch it anyway
Prowl: I highly doubt that that's the reason, we all know Starscream is not one to like anything that's from organics
Cliffjumper: Hey I know my kid (-cliffjumper is his papa I don't care talk to the wall-) better than you all and I know it has to be because of that. Hopefully the few good characteristics he has left from me means that it's also about the same band that I'm thinking about.
Ratchet: What do you mean 'my k----
Jazz: Dude total lore drop right there tell more later. But shouldn't we be going now
Optimus: It is decided. Autobots roll out!
After the confrontation there's now a video of the bands performance with giant robots fighting in the background being spread by the internet to the point everybody now knows the band
Cliffjumper messaging Starscream: Son have you seen it
Starscream: Seen what autodork
Cliffjumper: If you were here I would have grounded you (literally) but I'm to excited. WE'RE IN THE MUSIC VIDEO
Starscream let's out the loudest scream of joy which has now awoken unicron
Yeah idk I'm sick. Thought it was funny. Probs won't be when I'm better. You can rip cliff and star papa and son duo from my dead, decaying, cold hands cause I love it now so much even though it was just a crack little thing I thought of randomly when I was bored
Read rags they are going to be funny.
Hopefully
To the few people who like this cliff and star dynamics. I like you. You have great taste.
Having non transformer fan friends can be really hilarious sometimes
Cause we can easily tell apart every character but they can't
So sometimes it leads to a really funny interaction like this one I had recently-
Friend who is scrolling and see's a transformer edit
Sends it to me
Friend: "Look it's Starscreamer" (Yes the -er- at the end always happens it's vital to them)
Me an intellectual: "Dude that's not him, that's Optimus, he literally doesn't even have wings"
Friend: "They look the same it's close enough"
Me: "HOW!?"
(The tags have my opinion on Megatron, I'm actually pissed rn I'm writing too much)
I hate the Starscream haters who say that we like him due to "Oh you all make him all innocent, and a baby, but he's insane and terrible but you don't see that. He's not a victim he hurts people" (Basing this off literal interpretations of him from people who hate or hold no liking for him that I've seen)
Like stfu in my head I'm making him so insane and insecure and yes there is innocence but that's now erased so fuck off from my 'will kill for being forced to do a small task that annoys him' son.
Also there's a reason why everyone who actually has a brain cell says that he's a victim is because he is one.
Like there's no way you look at him and his fans who some have been victims to different types of abuse seeing themselves in him, AND THINK THAT HE'S NOT A VICTIM.
And people who don't hate him but have no love for him, but like literally everyone else, give the most shitty interpretations. Like maybe the reason why that is. Is because you probably have only actually looked at him in fans making him like that for comfort and not even trying to make it close to cannon.
And I ain't saying that oh you don't like Starscream, you then don't actually know him. But it's those who will have affection for every character no matter what simply having none for starscream or having shitty views on his character that's seems like it's from a wattpad story.
If you don't like him but understand his character then okay that's perfectly fine, I might not like your character but I'd make sure to understand them properly before actually arguing with the person on why they are wrong. And you shouldn't even be doing that in the first place just let people enjoy themselves.
I'm actually tweaking from other things but I can't break anything so I wrote this in 7 minutes lol
Terrorist - Megatron - demolisher - cyclonus - wheeljack - sideways - thrust
Holy shit I got forced into a terrorist group - Armada Starscream
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:" Yeah transformers are so cool it's sad we have to wait 100 years for them to come"
My sister: "Their real?"
"Yeah obviously"
And with utter horror etched on her face she goes "But then they will destroy houses"
"No that's only in movies and shows."
"Okay, so does that mean Starscream is real" and also goes "I hope Megatron isn't real(damn)"
And I was like "oh they're probably not real it's just gonna be some robots that we don't know"
"Well I hope Starscream is real"
"I do too cause I wanna jus--"
"High five him"
"Yeahhhhh lot's of high fives"
