[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.]

[Breakdown? Interesting. That guy still owed him a large favour. Knock Out might be a problem though... And so would EVERY damn Autobot EVER that showed up.]

Well aren't you well informed. Making plenty of robot friends, little girl?

[Korra frowns at the 'little girl' crack. But she continues with a shrug.]

Never seen anyone combine a telephone with moving pictures before. Just keeping an eye on it, and I ended up meeting a lot of you guys.

[my_own_trope]

I knew the humans were primitive, but that's just ridiculous. I know you have televisions.

[not_halfbaked]

...Televisions?

[OOC: Pretty sure Korra's world only has telephones, radio, and 'moving pictures'/movies.]

[my_own_trope]

Do you live under a rock?

[OOC| I feel the same. Mr. Sato spent too much time making evil boat machines and evil airplane machines to bother making evil TV machines.

Meanwhile, behold Starscream's grasp of human culture. It truly is a stunning thing!]

[not_halfbaked]

No, I've never heard of a television before! What the hell is that?

I can't believe I'm explaining your own technology to you. It's a--

[my_own_trope]

It's a box... or a ... flat screen...

[4/4] Oops missed one

[my_own_trope]

Assuming you actually know what electricity is -- otherwise I can't explain anything to you;

It's... a ludicrously backwater device which humans use to watch audiovisual media from.

[He's actually pretty pleased with his explanation.]

[not_halfbaked]

We've got electricity in my world. [Boy, do they ever, Korra's remembering all the times she's been electrocuted.]

So it is a cross between a telephone and moving pictures. Or the radio and moving pictures. Or just moving pictures with the usual talk and music played over the images. You've got the audio, you've got the visual, all rolled into one! Are they as big as moving pictures? Those are flat screens, big ones, but not really boxes...unless you think of the whole theatre as a box....

But yeah, there's nothing like television in my world. We've got--let's see--we've got newspapers, magazines, books, the radio, telephones, and moving pictures.

How do you watch 'audiovisual media?'

[my_own_trope]

Moving pictures? What a delightfully quaint terminology.

[not_halfbaked]

[Korra shrugs.]

It's what they are. Pictures that move.

[my_own_trope]

Thank you for the stimulating insight.

[Korra blinks.]

...Another Starscream that cuts and leaves....

[Logs off feed.]
