Thanks to the people who read and reviewed this little drabble fest of mines! It was fun but now it must end :)
We can live our lives as endless road trips
But at what cost?
Take a left at the severed trail
Don't fret about getting lost
Perhaps Starscream didn't really hate his companions and shared enemies.
What he hated was that when he saw them, he saw the undesirable parts of himself. It was like looking at scattered shards of a mirror, each with a face and glaring optics. And when he smashed them, he was hurting himself.
Sadism, stupidity, lust, secrecy and hypocrisy.
It was what Starscream was built on, a damnable personality with flaws all across the board. Useless for everything except as Scraplet bait. And even then he was sure that his taste would be undesirable, to say the least.
And with Megatron himself, well, he beheld none of the Seeker's forsaken traits. He dripped confidence wherever he ventured and sent wires sparking at the slightest mutter of his name. He was everything that Starscream was not. And more than he could ever hope to be.
And that jealousy was the true pure, unbridled hatred.
