Here're some ghostscream screenshots if anyone would want
For this post to make sense read this post first
This post post ended up being super duper long lol
This post is both me going in further on my idea for the fic and a reply to @zero-theredwolf 's comment!
Your absolutely right
His death would NOT fix shit.
Abuse and loss may have caused him to be the reason for all the strained relationships –He's the one who distanced himself from everyone instead of asking for help and he knows it (not that help would have actually come...)– but that doesn't give him the right to lash out at everyone and nor does it give reason for said everyone to forgive all his actions that had harmed them.
I'll have to do more research on mental health to properly write this
I don't want him to be just some victim bc he is no normal victim he's evil as hell
His attempts at killing megatron were reason for the initial abuse, but maybe at some point the abuse stopped being because of starscreams attempts at claiming the throne and just because of megatrons anger issues (which will prolly be why magatron would feel guilty)
I'm thinking of making it that they'll all be sad about what could've been of their relationships/guilt of just standing at the side while watching starscreams abuse, not "omg i forgive all his horrible actions now that hes dead!"
Maybe even wish that they had seen the signs of his slow mental decline sooner or spoke up about megatrons abuse –though they all know that that if they did that theyd simply get the same treatment as him– he might not be dead
But that's it
Just "i wish i did a little more"
To them starscream is a person they kinda regret failing, they know they couldn't have actually helped but it was a little sad to know he's suffered infront of them and most did next to nothing to help him out
His trine will feel VERY bad about it mostly bc they are his trine and were the closest to him
I have an idea about how the bond breaking might also add to their guilt
Another thing is I want him to actually redeem himself
I want him to be forgiven but he can't be forgiven if he doesn't change.
I think I might have him do good acts as a ghost; like saving one of soundwaves cassettes, organizing skyfires lab and correcting thundercrackers screenplays
Maybe coming in dreams too to help them or give them advise! (Possibly in the form of another bot that isnt him)
Heck maybe even preventing accidents from harming them.
Idk I want him to get therapy but have no idea how a ghost would get a therapist
Imagine a therapist with an Ouija board lmao
"Hmm and how does that make you feel"
*The wooden piece moves around the board to spell out "like slag"*
It would be funny but I'd have to think of another way to properly fix and redeem this loser
Maybe he'd do good deeds because it would make a gap in his spark feel less empty or something like that
Primus will be the reason for all of this hehe
"Gooooo fiiix your looiifeee loserrr~"
Yes I know the trope of Gods telling someone to go fix their mess of a life is silly but I'm silly enthusiast so I'm adding that‼️‼️
God I wrote way more than I expected to lol, if I can think of how to properly start the fic I will 100% write it bc I'm currently soo obsessed ghostscream
Ignore any spelling and punctuation mistakes, English is not my first language. Also punctuation is my greatest enemy after time management
Also if this isn't how people usually do thing on tumbler uhmmm excuse me pls bc i don't actually know the unspoken rules to how to do things on tumbler just yet‼️
ghost
here tfa auto-con au Ghostscream formerly starscream now he a loyal to the off-bits the second redeeming decepitcons he a ghost/ throne angel and he found new family and friends
What if the Matrix of Leadership allowed Tfp Optimus Prime and the dark energon allowed Megatron to see Starscream's restless spirit, how will they react seeing him messing with and scaring the bots and cons?
Optimus would first see Ghostscream on the battlefield following Breakdown around.
He’s very confused, he saw Starscream’s demise himself. And now Optimus is staring at the ‘empty’ space beside Breakdown, and now he’s confused too.
He is glad that Starscream can still run around without giving the autobots trouble, Optimus thinks it’s sweet that he’s following the bots he cared for (and still cares for).
Optimus would never ever admit this to anyone, but he’s the slightest bit jealous. He wishes that Cliffjumper would follow Arcee around, he wishes he could tell her with certainty that Cliff is doing alright in his afterlife.
Megatron is furious when he comes into his berthroom expecting everything to be in it’s place, and instead there are pieces of confetti on his floor. And a transparent Starscream running around his room.
Then, Starscream notices him staring through… no, at him.
Starscream begins to laugh at Megatron, realizing that the big bad bot couldn’t lay a digit on him even if he wanted to.
The seeker eventually gets bored of tormenting Megatron, he heads to the medbay to tell Knockout all about it via the spirit board made from spare scrap.
Soundwave also knows that Starscream’s a ghost because of the heat and energy sensing cameras on the ship. They think Megatron’s run-in with Ghostscream (they know about it because of Megatron’s ranting) is hilarious, but that’s a secret they won’t ever tell.
Ya know… something’s been buggin me, why was Octane so frightened by StarScream? StarScream was really seen as much of a problem to most if all the Decepticon Ranks, most saw him as annoying and possibly crazy. They probably felt uneasy around but…. Octane was actually scared, but why? Was because he’s a ghost or is there another reason? It bugs me because why scream like that? Why was Octane so Frightened?
ghostscream au except we go past the silly point and starscream is faced with the harsh reality that he’s actually super dead
