[Video] Possible Responses from both TFP Shockwave and Starscream
[Starscream had awoken to find himself lost, confused, alone, and at a disadvantage more than thrice over. That had been two weeks ago. In that time he'd remembered a few things -- not nearly enough by any standard -- but he knew the war at home was won, and furthermore, was sure he'd been here before.
Discreetly skulking around, he'd tried to regain his bearings, and the specialized scanning software of a commanding energon seeker had allowed him to eventually find his present location, hidden as it was:Shockwave's mancave Starscream's new secret fort. To be fair, massive amounts of energon hidden beneath the landscape usually merited looking into anyway.
That was one week ago.]
[Private to Liege Maximo]
[It had taken Starscream this long to decide he was going to contact his Prime. The memory of Maximo was there, but it was as much a comfort as it was distressing. Starscream didn't know what note their relationship had last been on, but he sincerely hoped it was a positive one.]
My Liege, your humble servant returns. [He bows, the video dipping slightly] I await your command, and relish the opportunity of being of use to you -- however you deem fit.
[Welp, here's hoping that covered most of the important bases. And at the very least, it might be enough of a heads-up should Starscream find himself suddenly in need of ... hopping back off-grid.]
[Everybody else: ]
[The video opens to Starscream grinning in a dark, somewhat poorly lit place.]
Some of you might be wondering after my absence. [Of how long, he's uncomfortably unsure.] Well, rest assured, Haven, my time spent away has led to great accomplishments.
[The camera pans out as Starscream presents this with a grandiose gesture. Straightening, he thumbs a button on a device in his hand and the glowing lights instantly shut off. The camera pans back to Starscream, following him as he moves away. ]
While under the radar, I've been busy creating this. Allow me to present to you: ~a fully functional groundbridge~.
[Smugness levels are off the charts]
Yes, that's right, in this cave, using little more than a box of scraps, I've been able to engineer an incredibly sophisticated piece of machinery. Now, I might be a genius, but it was certainly no small feat given what I had to work with. And yet, here we are.
Should any of you want to use my bridge, know this: admissions is hardly free. But~ I'm sure with enough begging, we can work something out~~. I --
[Off screen there's a flash of light, and the very distinct sound of a groundbridge activating.]
I'll call you back.

Idiot.
[What passes for his brow raises. Are you insinuating that you'd even pass for his type? Nice as those hips are they wouldn't be worth the processor ache of listen to you whine.]
I do not flirt.
[Unless threatening to torture you is flirting, in which case. Yes, yes he is.]
I DON'T KNOW WHERE THIS CONVERSATION IS GOING
So... you're the sort of person who just takes what he wants then, are you?
[Have you SEEN the treatment he gets from the person he's most obsessed with? Have you seen his hobbies? Better yet, have you seen his expression after conveniently falling onto the bondage bed at Pwave's old lab? #Oops #Sillyme #But #now #that #I'm #here...]
BEAUTIFUL PLACES
[So sorry Starscream, but he's already taken by someone far less whiny.]
Starscream is AWFUL with pets...
[About that. You should introduce him to Starscream...]
it'll be like predaking all over again
[Back away now and you might live.]

[And more loudly:] No one will be stepping on anyone!
[Pointedly to the REAL Shockwave:] Don't so much as think about it.
[Seriously, this relationship hasn't progressed far enough for the Megatron roleplay to start yet...]
