[Video] Too many Starscreams in the kitchen ruin the plot

[sparkless]

[The video shows Starscream lounging in his quarters at Supreme Buckethead's Megatronus Prime's haven. By the view from his window its readily apparent he's chosen the highest room he could find unoccupied on one of the two towers.]

Alright, let's get this out of the way right now.

Exactly how many worthless copies of me are there? I'm sick of being mixed up with fat versions, skinny versions, blocky versions... its ridiculous.

So. I've devised a brilliant way of distinguishing us all. No more confusion. [No more undeserved punches in the face.]

Sounds like a plan--you're the third Starscream I've seen--and the third one I'm asking this question too: do you know Slipstream?

Actually, you seem the closest to her description already....

[Video] That's right!

[sparkless]

I'm the only Starscream you need to know, trust me. Don't bother with those others.

Slipstream? ....We've met. [Ah, so one of his clones was here. It figured it would be the one that was the best at wriggling her way into and out of situations.]

So she's been looking for me, has she? [Grin]

Re: [Video] That's right!

[not_halfbaked]

Have you met them? That would be strange, meeting...more, of you....

[Korra suddenly had the thought of mutliple Korras out there. FREAKY.]

Yep.

Hmmm.... Are you two brother and sister? You actually look sorta similar.

Re: [Video]

[sparkless]

Just hearing about them has been enough for me. [Snort]

[He raises a brow ridge.] A split-spark sibling? Absolutely not! My brilliance and good looks could never have naturally been shared with another!

She's merely a clone.

[not_halfbaked]

...What's a clone?

[Video]

[sparkless]

One part cannon fodder, and three parts annoying.

Re: [Video] (OOC: I love how this puzzled face has become Korra's most used icon at this point)

[not_halfbaked]

Where do clones come from?

[Video]

[raceme]

[Looks who's really here. Your sister was looking for you.]

Way too many if you ask me ONE OF YOU IS already one too much in fact.

Re: [Video]

[sparkless]

[Oh, it's you. Hello there, mister intelligence agent.]

One of me is the perfect amount! What's taking you so long to hunt down and arrest all these copies?

[raceme]

[S'up~How you been doing Mr.Smug snake? Did you destroy Megatron already?]

I can't say I had the pleasure of meeting those other you in person yet but I've heard about them and I saw one of them post DON'T WORRY son enough you all will be taken care off.

[Don't tell him how to you his job, you are not his father boss.]

[sparkless]

[He's not around anywhere- so maybe?]

I suggest you go after the one made of blocks first. That thing can't be aerodynamic enough to fly.

[raceme]

[I don't think that's how it works...Maybe you need legit proofs first. Maybe.]

Him being able to fly or not doesn't really bother me YOU ALL have the tendency to fall to the ground when someone puts a pair of stasis cuff on you. Would you want a demonstration?

[sparkless]

[Totally dead until proven otherwise.]

You have a pair of stasis cuffs here? ...Iiiinteresting.

[raceme]

[It's like Wasp...totally guilty until, oh surprise, proved wrong.]

YESofcourse...why are you giving me that look?

[Audio]

[my_own_trope]

[So indignantly]

How many more of you, are there?

Re: [Audio]

[not_halfbaked]

[Snickers.]

You guys are like a flock of birds or something.

[Korra considers, then figures now's a good time, after recently learning about it.]

Do you know a Knock Out?

[my_own_trope]

Don't compare me to some barely evolved organic pest!

And I just might. Why?

[not_halfbaked]

[Shrugs.]

I was helping him do a headcount of 'Cons and 'Bots, told him how I saw three Starscreams, and it seemed like he knew you--or one of you....

[my_own_trope]

And your current tally?

[not_halfbaked]

[Korra starts counting on her hands.]

'Cons I've seen so far are Knock Out, Slipstream, and you and the two other Starscreams--I know it's weird, but there it is. And I heard there's a Breakdown, but I've never met him.

On the 'Bot side, there's Drift, Wing, Optimus Prime, Blurr, and I think I heard of a Wheeljack. There's also Ratchet, and he announced he'd treat all of you guys, whether 'Bot or 'Con.

[sparkless]

Two worthless copies as far as I can tell. One made of sticks and one made of blocks.

[Perma-audio]

[my_own_trope]

And you're getting your information, where?

[Video]

[sparkless]

[Normally Starscream would not reveal his sources, but they're so obvious there really isn't a point.]

The comm network mostly. Ah, and from my patron's acolytes, of course. Chatty little things.

[my_own_trope]

Yes, about that. Who is your patron?

[sparkless]

[Ugh, he was actually hoping you wouldn't ask that.]

....Megatronus. [He refuses to add the Prime part because that is stupid.]
