inspissate - to thicken? I learned a new word!

The idea of Megatron wanting a bunch of Starscream clones is kind of funny and reminds me of Army of You. Also, am amused that the clones had be killed/killed each other.

I really like a lot of the dialogue in this, and I find it weirdly fitting that Scrapper has built a gun that works upon the soul. Also, I like it when you use years instead of vorns, anyway.

Interesting that Megatron thinks banging a dead guy is better than banging an Autobot.

...so, Megatron basically has wang piercings?

Hahahah, Starscream calls his own name.

I sort of wonder what Megatron wanted Starscream to use his mouth for.

Megatron thinks about Prime for a cold shower effect?

Slugs will bite off each other's cocks after sex, sometimes.

I have to say, I was half expecting a fic wherein Megatron accidentally kills Starscream and then has to put up with the ghost and getting Starscream a new body.

I keep wanting to spell it "insissipate", which isn't a word even if it feels like one.

Yeah, it's a similar reference. There was an idea floating around somewhere that Megatron did clone Starscream and most of the clones killed each other. Not enough room on Cybertron for two Starscreams!

Dialogue's good? How so?

Scrapper is an odd fellow, and comes up with horrible things to do to people, hence why we like him.

Well, it's less morally revolting to him, at least.

No, he has *conductive* wang piercings! For some reason. Don't ask. It was a bad idea.

Of course he does!

Oral sex. Megatron's sex fantasies are apparently a bit pedestrian.

Well, it's likely to work, no?

That would've been more interesting than this, methinks.

I don't know. The dialogue just seems very snappy and good and compelling and in character.

Do any of the clones ever turn into Sunstorms?

(I also like the bit about poor dead Wheeljack and Ratchet embracing. You're starting to make me into a Wheeljack fan!)

I could see Megatron having some surprisingly vanilla sex fantasies. He's so extreme in other ways, and you write him as a bit naive in the bedroom, so it kinda makes sense.

Well, if Megatron finds corpses sexier than Autobots, then yeah, Prime would be the ultimate cold shower.

But it would have been a very different animal.

Fantastic. Those two are sometimes incredibly easy to write - the constant bicker-bicker mental fencing just won't stop once it's started.

Not Sunstorm specifically, although one of Wayward's characters was a Starscream clone.

I think I turned myself into a Wheeljack fan somehow. He just always had this really strong sense of character about him, with this whole serial-divorcee-lived-in-Polyhex-no-moral-hardwire-religious-dissident thing going on. All from one offhand comment someone on the Cell made about him sounding New York Jewish.

Less "vanilla", more "easily obtained".

Also, Prime's repulsive to him personally.

Entirely so.

Not just those two. Shockwave and Scrapper were also delightful. Scrapper does very complicated things, but he says so in a very plain manner. That was reflected here.

Which one of hers was? (I wish I had the courage to actually ask her how things are going...)

Hmm, is this Megatron playing the safe long-term game again?

It just kind of threw me, because there are so many fics about Megatron/Prime.

Fantastic. Thanks.

Mourningstar [Morningstar?] I forget if there was one or two, or if they were different characters. I just know she had a Starscream clone bombing around the place.

No, just Megatron keeping the grandiose fantasies for politics.

A pairing I do not and never will see. Except in Blood & Diesel, but that was less sex and more full-spectrum corruption.
