[ID: A digital illustration of Orym from Critical Role. There are four drawings of Orym, all bloodied, wounded and distressed. The Orym in the top left grimaces, he has a bloody nose and a cut on his right cheek. The Orym in the top right has a dagger stabbed through his right cheek, the blade having stabbed through from the inside of his cheek outward and the blade is still held between Orym's gritted teeth as he grimaces with pain. The Orym in the bottom left is splattered with blood, looking alarmed. The Orym in the bottom right has blood streaming down his face from cuts on his forehead as he looks up to the left with pain and alarm. End description.]
This is terribly self indulgent <3

[ID: A digital illustration of Orym and Dorian Storm from Critical Role. Orym is sat cross legged in a field of flowers with Dorian laying on the ground with his head resting on Orym's legs. Orym is druidcrafting flowers into Dorian's hair while Dorian plays his lute. End description.]
I miss Dorian so bad :')
Look my favourite 'Starscream joins the Autobots' concept involves him absolutely playing up his victimhood in a manipulative attempt to win sympathy. He's a Decepticon! He's Starscream. Of course he does! He will act however weak and vulnerable he needs to, in order to achieve his ends.
This gives him a fascinating duality. He's a Machiavellian selfish would-be-tyrant who fucking dares the Autobots to feel sorry for him; while at the same time, he's a wheedling, snivelling mess, making puppy-dog eyes as he cunningly reveals tailored scraps of his abusive relationship with Megatron to win over the 'soft-sparked' Autobots.
Everything he shares is true.
In fact, things with Megatron were probably even worse than he portrays, albeit more complex - i.e., with far more goading and violence on his side, but which in NO WAY justified the ghastly abuse he was subjected to.
This is a way for him to feel like he's in control of the shit that's been done to him. If he's using his victim status as a weapon, it feels like it's his. He's taken possession of it. He's made it into something more powerful, in his mind (even if this defence tactic kinda... prevents him from fully recognising that what happened to him was actually really really awful).
I wish more fics engaged with this aspect of his character, where he's PERFECTLY WILLING to go 'OH THE ABUSE. OH I HAVE SUFFERED' if it'll get him ahead in life, while perhaps not even fully understanding just how much trauma he's gone through.
I've been watching you longer than you know. Recklessly drawn to your destiny, like a flame. My beautiful Champion. There is much to fear. But not death. For it gives meaning to life.
