So, I. I don't know how many people knew him, but I figured I might as well say something.

Shockwave - the big one - and his Driller have been missing. Sometimes they'd just go off on their own but usually not for this long. And I've looked everywhere. So I'm gonna call it.

They're. Gone.

[He pauses for a long moment before speaking again.]

I'll still be at Megatronus's temple to look after their things, until Megatronus makes me leave.

["I'm worried about US," when flying with his new seekers.]

[True... he'd had that time... but ... he and Megatron had been kinda busy enjoying a post-war honeymoon of sorts and you don't know how much more important compliments from Megatron are, okay? Getting cozy with the boss takes precedence over ERRBODY.]


I had other duties to attend to! As Second in Command of ALL Decepticons (because at that point in time, Shockwave deff didn't have the raise) I am responsible for far more than simply training the troops.

[Starscream initiates his usual counter whenever people start ragging on him for his... thing with Megatron.
Time to commence project "ignore that comment".]


You'll notice it tends to happen to every other drone sent out by ANY officer.

[HE CAN'T HEAR YOU.]


War claims many casualties. What's your point?


[LALALALA HE'S NOT LISTENING. And you better not let him catch you at it either.]

[WHAT TRUTH?]


They're more than just repaints and they're still superior to the rest of the drones! Watch your vocaliser. Besides, what experience do you have with them that makes you such an expert?


[They'd probably find it dull. You shouldn't even bother.]

BUT YOU'RE GREENISH!?! HOW COULD THIS HAPPEN?!

You're gravely mistaken if you think I'm not aware our drones have sparks. I've snuffed more than a few myself when they made the poor decision of getting between me and my goals.

[Unseen on his end, Starscream's eyes narrow and his mouth forms an unpleasant smile.]

Well then, soldier, given how you're one of the ranks, I take it you already know the punishment for insubordination.

Are you threatening me? Is that supposed to dissuade me? I've endured prisons worse then the Autobot joke here, and what's a little boredom to pay for your extended suffering -- because believe me, if I wanted to make you suffer, I'll be taking my time with you.

Besides, from what I hear, deactivation is hardly permanent.

[And then the video suddenly pops on to a closeup of Starscream snarling into the screen]

So why don't I give you the opportunity to try out that theory. Would you really like to test your skills against your military commander? I'm willing to oblige!

[So much vitriol. All his problems are coming to a head, and Fracas has the unfortunate position of being someone Starscream KNOWS should be a comforting measure of control -- and yet isn't. He's hardly afraid of the soldiers though. No, those can be killed without real consequence; they're not even real people.]

I look forward to seeing how that works out for you.
