✨ Some HC-Style notes on the differences between young and old Megs.✨
Young Megs:
Full of life, jumping into action and always has a plan on his mind.
Acutely aware of what’s going on around him, even if he pretends not to be. Very helpful in the case of Starscream.
Wears clothes with pride, but doesn’t enjoy wearing them and will strip off as soon as he’s home.
Drinks too much to prove he’s macho aboard the Nemesis (which has its own pub called The Prime’s Head) but is actually a fucking idiot.
Occasionally flicks up his collar to hide his iron brand on the back of his neck. Although everyone knows his past, the stigma remains and he despises that it marked his body in such a way.
Writes frequently and tirelessly, and once he’s in the groove you can’t get him out.
Massive personality as he enters the room, all eyes shift to him a and he seems to overthrow everything in his path.
Egotistical, with reason.
LOTS of hand movements and gestures. They are just a part of his speaking.
Romantically helpless.
Old Megs:
Sits around a lot more, brooding, especially when Nautica is away.
Wears thicker layers of clothes that aren’t as immaculate as they once where, mostly because he doesn’t care about his image as much anymore. He no longer had the need to project power like he did.
Thinks about writing a lot, but doesn’t manage to get pen to paper as often. Wether shadowplay or inability, he doesn’t want to know fully.
Doesn’t drink as much, but can handle his alcohol better.
A little weary of life. Is never phased or shocked my anything as he’s seen it all before.
Likes dark chocolate as a guilty pleasure.
doesn’t hide his D-16 (miner class) iron brand anymore. Accepts it as part of life rather than despising it.
Thinks back on his younger self with a certain malice, knowing what a fool he was.
Wears socks to bed.
Helpless Romantic.
