Mirrorverse AU of Transformers Prime's Starscream: voice test

[distortedscream]

Are you insane?

You have the scarred revolutionary and elemental girl already, why decide to turn me into one of your playthings too?!

I don't have time for this, I have responsibilities to Lord Megatron and my crew!

...And I don't have time for a genuine study into alternate realities!

And don't you dare mock me with the possibility that I'll see any form of Jetfire again!

He is dead. Dead and gone, because of that damned Cliffjumper--!

...I fraggin' urge you to reconsider this course of action.

in yugioh, the universe is cards. i mean what-

[kattobingu_ore]

From my dad.

[NOT HELPFUL.]

I guess? [hnn... He actually stops to think about that for a moment.] I don't know, they seem to take a different form depending on who finds them first... So maybe the weren't cards to start.

[Maybe. But in his world? The entire universe rests on these things, they were probably always cards.]

Re: in yugioh, the universe is cards. i mean what-

[distortedscream]

Do you know where your father got the key?

[NOT PHASED.]

Are they more like bodies of energy then? That can be transferred and alter their forms?

[kattobingu_ore]

Mn... He found it on one of his expeditions..! Though... I don't really know where the expedition was...

...And I can't exactly ask...

[....yea moving on.]

Maybe? All of the Numbers have some sort of power... Some of them even speak..!

[distortedscream]

[Immediately Starscream wanted to ask more about the expeditions, if his father was an explorer, what studies did he specialize in--but in between the human's words and his tone, Starscream let the topic drop.]

So the Numbers are sentient. Or are they? Do they have a will of their own along with the power of speech?

[kattobingu_ore]

[He suddenly looks quite uncomfortable.] The ones that do aren't good- Black Mist... He's caused a lot of problems..!

[distortedscream]

Surely not all of the sentient ones are bad--!

[That was a disconcerting thought.]

[kattobingu_ore]

Black Mist is the only one, I think.

[...Well other than Shark Drake, but HE DOESN'T KNOW THAT...]

There are 99 numbers total, so it's not that bad? And Astral said Hope helped him before, so Hope might be sentient too right?

[distortedscream]

...I...suppose...but then I've never met this Hope. Or Black Mist.

[kattobingu_ore]

Aah. They're numbers- this, is Hope! [he holds up a card, and then grabs another.]

And this one... Is 'Black Mist'. Though he can make himself look like Astral almost... And that's nothing like what's on the card.

[distortedscream]

[Blinks.]

'Hope'...vaguely looks like my--er, could pass for a Cybertronian.

Why is that, you think? Could Astral have a close connection to Black Mist? You did say he lost his memories--could he have forgotten something like that?

[kattobingu_ore]

All of the cards are pieces of his memory. Black Mist... Along with Tron... They say that Astral was sent to destroy my world but...

My dad wouldn't do that. And Astral wouldn't either- I've come to know him..! And even if it was what he was supposed to do, he wouldn't do that now..!

[distortedscream]

Is Tron another Number?

Your father? So he did more than find the key that ended up releasing Astral and scattering his memories?

...People can change. Your Astral can. It sounds like he has. [And amnesia could help someone reorganize their priorities.]

[kattobingu_ore]

No.

Tron is... Well, was, human. I don't know if he is now...

But my dad is the one who gave me this key- and he said himself that it was important... So I think that he knew what would happen when I used it.

[As it is- your words are reassuring Starscream..! So you have a smile.] Aah. Thanks..!

[distortedscream]

Why would you question Tron's humanity?

Reasonable conclusion to draw based on that....

Oh...uh, it is nothing, just an observation...but I'm glad if it helps you....

if only the SPACE FACE episode had SUBTITLES... >8[

[kattobingu_ore]

Unm. Well, he used to be called 'Byron Arclight'... But supposedly, he and my dad both became trapped in an alternate dimension...

'Tron' came back, but he's different... He took off his mask, and half of his face was a galaxy..!!! He doesn't have any emotions of his own now... And he's causing his own sons so much pain just for revenge...

[SPACE FACE... ...As it is, nothing but a grin in response to your last comment.]

Re: if only the SPACE FACE episode had SUBTITLES... >8[

[distortedscream]

That does sound troubling. [Especially for someone that seemed so young.]

oops obligatory catch phrase drop

[kattobingu_ore]

Aah. I'm supposed to fight him soon in a duel... I'm worried, but, no matter what I have to believe..! 'Kattobingu'..!

I'll win the match, and the others will wake up again..! [BUT HOW. HOW YUUMA, HOW. how does that make sense how...]

Re: oops obligatory catch phrase drop

[distortedscream]

What, a duel? It's come to that?

[kattobingu_ore]

[He's nodding a fair bit he is.] Aaah. Somehow.. I don't think it'll just end with him though.
