Typecasting

[my_own_trope]

Hello everyone, this is your resident DJD player bringing in one of The Lost. I swear I'm actually capable of playing people that aren't either Hard Evil or zombies with barely any sapience... but today is not the day that I put my money where my mouth is. Today is the day I bring back Starscream from the animated series Transformers Prime. I played this guy right at the game opening, but since he's a Lost now, none of that CR happened and he won't remember anyone.

As for the character himself, he's:

• Got a lot in common with Tarn actually.
• A lot.
• They even speak in similar fashion.
• But Starscream is tiny, lightweight, and turns into a jet plane.
• He's also more likely to talk to organics and non-robots.
• As well as being more likely to make a BIG DEAL out of nothing.
• He once killed a bloke named Cliffjumper. You should let him tell you ALL about it. Because he will. Whether you want him to or not.

If you aren't familiar with Starscream past that, then this is all you really need to know:

   He's got the legs of a Swedish model, and it makes the young boy robots uncomfortable in canon.

   Yeah.

   Well.

   I'm so sorry.
 

Except I'm not.

No, that's a lie, I really am.

As well as being more likely to make a BIG DEAL out of nothing

That right there, if NOTHING else, will have TC almost nostalgic for home.

...almost.

XD

TOTES can't wait to see how TC and /this/ Starscream don't? XD;;; get along. XD

[my_own_trope]

Nostalgic up until Starscream shanks TC with his knife-hands, for being a poor minion of a seeker?

[notyourblueangel]

LOL as I said, almost.

Because honestly? That wouldn't even surprise him. Startle him at the time, maybe, but not surprise. 9,9 His own trine leader doesn't have knifehands, but those null rays, man...they fuck with your systems. I'm sure TC knows this firsthand. 9,9 orz

XD

[my_own_trope]

Hahaha, I will never get over how ALL the other seekers here have thruster heels though... and Pscream just has ... heel heels.

[neverputincharge]

And he'll mention killing Cliffjumper over and over and over and over till you just want to punch him to shut him up. XD

BUT YAY FOR A SCREAMY.

[songofmypeople]

So how does THIS make you feel?

[pendragon]

..Th-those legs.

[songofmypeople]

He's an angry, needy old man... in canon robot stilettos... which doesn't even make any sense because those are his FEET.

[neverputincharge]

Learn about personal bubbles Screamy



Appropriately fitting icon. /shot

[songofmypeople]

He knows all ABOUT personal bubbles. They're meant to be popped!

Meanwhile: /ugly laughter at that gif. AND THAT ICON, OH MY GOD, I was just: what's the two little red---STARSCREAM ARE YOU KIDDING ME??

[neverputincharge]

HAHAHAHA, I love that GIF. xD And yes, that icon. People keep being weirded out by it when they spot creepyscream. XD

[songofmypeople]

Have you seen the gif where Pscream just sort of tumbles across the screen and Bulk looks SO SHOCKED because, bro, didn't I just murder you? And Starscream is just: outta the way! /takes off

[neverputincharge]

Yes I have! XD It's hilarious.

[songofmypeople]

Bulk ever going to take credit for that? I'm just imagining him telling the team: "So I totally killed Pscream the other day... and it worked for a little while... but then he got better???"

TC-mun too lazy to change accounts ATM

[dragondancer5150]

LOL Poor Pscream. XD

At least he's got the legs to rock the look! \o/

[wherenobotsgone]

WELP that's another not!best friend. This is going to be awkward and wonderful.

[my_own_trope]

And THESE TOO? Right?





Sob, no man, this scene is the most embarrassing from all three seasons, oh god I can't even look.

[dragondancer5150]

Work it, baby, WORK IT!   }8D

Oh, man . . . WHAT THE HELL episode is that even FROM!?  (I only got through the first half of season 1 before I fell out of the habit of watching.  OTL  I keep saying I'm going to get back to it.  9,9)

[my_own_trope]

I'M NOT GONNA SPOIL IT FOR YOU, BUT IT IS THE EPISODE STARSCREAM CELEBRATES SOMETHING BY HIP THRUSTING AND DANCING.

/brb crying because it is something I'd rather forget

[my_own_trope]

Shhh, Shhh, Skyfire, Starscream will be your new best friend, shh, just come into his clutches, I mean, arms. The other Starscream already has a large white friend, it's only fair that Pscream gets you.

[dragondancer5150]

[DIES LAUGHING!]

Dude, Screamer's been on Earth Way. Too. Damn. Long. apparently.  He's picking up human mannerisms he's not even /aware/ of!  XD  This amuses me far more than it should.

BB, I think you just made my day.  [grinning like an idiot]

[rememberme]

Same player, wrong account

MAN I CAN'T EVEN WATCH THAT GIF, I JUST TURN RED. But Pscream has a couple other dance moves from that scene, and talk about being on earth too long?

IT'S CANON THAT SOMETIMES HE BROWSES THE INTERNET AND LAUGHS AT ANIMATED GIFs. STARSCREAM FIGURED OUT THE HUMAN INTERNET, AND HARNESSED IT FOR GIFS

CANON.
CANON

[originaldragoon]

Oh Mr. Starscream, such sexy legs~

[aerospacecommander]

Sorry he already wrote his name on this one.

[songofmypeople]

The rest of him's not bad either, right? Why, he's so fabulous he could just faint.

[songofmypeople]

HA! JOKE'S ON YOU THEY HAVE THE SAME NAME SO DON'T MIND PSCREAM AS HE JUST GENTLY APPROPRIATES THIS BIG WHITE BLOKE FOR HIMSELF.

[aerospacecommander]

Except you don't use the same cybertronian! Sorry.

[songofmypeople]

.... WELL FINE, he'll just ask Skyfire what it says, and then "oh, look, see? Destiny, it was meant to be. Come to skinny Papa!"

[deadlydoctor]

[rememberme]

ROOMMATES~~~ (Whether you like it or not!) >:3

[wherenobotsgone]

... you know, I think he's just going to stare at you both and then go do science with his BFF Jetfire while you fight.

[songofmypeople]

Meanwhile Pscream is just: WHAT? THERE'S MORE OF YOU BIG HUNKS? TAKE ME WITH YOU!
And then Skyfire had a barnacle.
That wanted his science and science tools and hot bod.

[wherenobotsgone]

... a very creepy barnacle you mean.

[songofmypeople]

Needy is another word for it You get used to it after a couple centuries, don't worry.

I love that gif

[deadlydoctor]

I DON'T THINK THE WORLD's READY FOR THAT. Knock Out isn't either.

[songofmypeople]

Welcome to the world of growing up. It's full of things you wish you'd never had to deal with before!!

[deadlydoctor]

But growing up is for losers.

Wait, when did Starscream acquire anything resembling to maturity?

[dragondancer5150]

LMFAO

Also? Now that I'm home and can properly (well...easily - was on phone earlier) see the WHOLE post with all the /other/ comments . . . OMFG!!!! I SOOOO needed that laugh after the evening I've had. I cannot WAIT to interact with your Pscream!

Also, I owe tag on the shot-by-Tarn log I HAVEN'T FORGOTTEN PROMISE, but this is going to be a busy weekend so prolly not till Monday OTL

[songofmypeople]

EXCUSE YOU, HE'S LIKE, THE OLDEST ROBOT IN THE SHOW.

[songofmypeople]

Take your time! There's no hurry, and it's easier to hit tag-nirvana that way, so win-win in any case.

[dragondancer5150]

Just didn't want you thinking I was ignoring you or something. =3;;;

Also, OH GODS WHY am I still up!? *heads for bed now, LONG - but good! - two days ahead of me...*

[deadlydoctor]

AND WHEN IT WAS DECIDED THAT BEING OLD MEANT BEING MATURE?

[songofmypeople]

STARSCREAM DECIDED IT FOREVER AGO. LITERALLY FOREVER AGO.

[raceme]

BUT NO ONE CARES ABOUT HIS OPINIONS. NOR NOW NOT BACK THEN.

TOUCHE

[songofmypeople]

... some things never change

<3!

[deadlydoctor]

Sadly they do not.
