Knockout: I Headcannon That....

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.

Haha capcut can't be that hard I say with joys

I was then shot 57 times

I really should have watched a video or anything but nah I had a will and Starscream to guide me. But I'll post it for shits anyway and later lament on my humiliation of my first edit. No there is not a read more to hide my humiliation, I'm not a coward I say to myself.

I don't even know the song I just had an audio for it.

Headcanon/au or whatever idk how to explain

So we all know how Starscream always changes his frame in the comics.

What if it was not only due to finding what feels right for him but also due to his immortal spark.

His clone Sunstorm has his own powers but I feel like it doesn't ruin his body as it let's the radioactivity be released. Whilst in Starscream's case the only way to release his energy would be to die and we all know how much he stops that from happening.

So with barely any release his spark slowly deteriorates his current body but not in a really gory way simply that functions will lag and maybe if left to long energon would slowly burst inside of him like when we get a bloody nose but for him his eyes may burst.

But he changes frame so much that it never got to the point where his whole body exploded and all the other times it was brushed off as damage due to fights (Megatron).

And the energy does still get released as he's died a few times but nobody knew cause they simply changed his frame in I guess a spark transfer as a last resort and it worked every time.

You use whiteboard pens on whiteboards. I use them to draw on paper. We are not the same.

But like bro's side profile is immaculate just saying.

Don't remember doing this but it's cute, he's cute so it's alright.

The different versions of starscream . Also why is tfp so hard to draw man.

Homophobic!!? Nah I'm homosexual

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

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.

(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

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.
