[Accidental video] backdated to Starscream's super fun prison stay ( 'bout a week ago)

[my_own_trope]

[The video starts with a blurry, dark, shaky shape and the sound of Blurr droning on rapid fire about ... something. It's hard to make out over the frustrated, agonized crying of:]

SHUT UP. SHUT UP. SHUT UP ALREADY!

SHUTUPSHUTUPSHUTUPSHUTUPSHUTUPSHUTUPSHUTUPSHUTUPSHUTUPSHUTUPSHUTUPSHUTUP....

[When the video finally settles down and autofocus is able to kick in... you're all treated to the beautiful view of Starscream with his eyes screwed shut beating the heels of his palms against his own skull. Also a prison cell.]



[OOC| Video will continue with Blurr's response and public video thread. Possible replies from either he or Pscream. Don't look, Liege Maximo. This is just embarrassing.]

You know the police can still hear you while you are threatening that, yes? You are unsubtle as a pseudogiant.

[If you expect him to be freaked out... NOPE.]

[my_own_trope]

I am a giant. Compared to you at least.

[gtfostalker]

[Strelok waves one hand flippantly, as if trying to shoo a fly.]

It is a simile, da? Your height has nothing to do with it. It means you are more obvious than a stomping, roaring monster charging at someone. Everyone knows you are coming before you get there.

~Earth Translating Software~ Thank you, Soundwave

[my_own_trope]

Don't "da," me. If you're going to speak a language, at least make up your mind and speak one of them.

Oh Soundwave, you so useful. And creepy. Mostly creepy.

[gtfostalker]

I do not see why I should. You can understand well enough, and the translator in the Links catches most of what I say anyway. Besides, it is a little of home. Surely even a living machine can understand bringing a little of his beloved planet or country with him?

He's a good listener.... when you have no other friends... s-sob

[my_own_trope]

...

[Out of nowhere Starscream looks like he's been blindsided by some realisation.
All of a sudden he has to come to terms with with the loss of his home again.
There'd been no time when they were in the throes of the last skirmish, and he can't remember any of his time in the Haven prior after having gotten over the event.

He... he'd been really upset when Optimus destroyed the Omega Lock... their one chance to get Cybertron back... and now he's stuck on this topsy turvy crappy Cybertron where nothing makes any bloody sense and...

and...

And damnit he's so high-strung, this is a punch in face with feelings that he didn't expect.]

...

[Give him a couple minutes before he convinces himself he's actually furious.]

Starscream... did you ever consider you'd have more friends if you stopped killing everyone?

[gtfostalker]

[Strelok has very little of this problem, himself. He's had amnesia before, he has amnesia again. Maybe he'll figure it out or maybe he won't. That still leaves the Zone back home, and whether he fixed it or not...

Well. There are stalkers at home that can deal with that. He did his part, and that was obviously the end of it since he ended up here.

And this. This is pretty much a paradise for him, murderous robots aside.]

Take your time.

[Strelok is chill like that.]

The only friend Starscream wants won't stop playing mind games and doesn't even caaaaaare ;A;

[my_own_trope]

[Thanks for waiting, now he's starting to get bitchy angry]

What would you know of missing your home? You know nothing of loss, human.

Starscream, it's probably time to look for friends that WOULD caaaaaaare

[gtfostalker]

[And yet Strelok will never lose his cool. He's gotten chewed out before, after all.]

I perhaps know nothing of your loss. But you know nothing of me, machine.

Let's not kid ourselves. The time for that is long passed, and Starscream knows it too

[my_own_trope]

Nor do I care about the vermin of this planet.

[/hang up]

[ohhhhh, someone's upset.]
