MORE DREADWING TALK!

Dreadwing isn't a character I particularly resonate with for his own sake (like his personality doesn't do it for me), but he was so great for what he revealed about other characters.

So, Dreadwing is a foil to Starscream. Starscream is sneaky; Dreadwing is forthright. Starscream will do anything to survive; Dreadwing is all about honor. Starscream will sacrifice any other person / relationship to get ahead; Dreadwing puts his life on the line to try to avenge his brother.

And finally, Starscream is good at his job, Dreadwing isn't.

This is one of the most interesting things about Dreadwing. He's buff, he's serious, he's honorable, but once you start looking at his track record . . . hoo boy.

Mission to get rid of Airachnid: Dreadwing loses control of Breakdown, allowing him to be goaded and lured away by Airachnid, who kills him and traipses away.

Antarctic mission: Dreadwing returns emptyhanded while a rogue Starscream escapes with the Apex Armor.

Omega Key mission: Dreadwing gets knocked out by his own bomb; Starscream clocks Smokescreen from behind and steals the Omega Key.

So let's fast forward to the episode "Regeneration". Dreadwing has just learned that Starscream turned DW's twin into a zombie with dark energon. Megatron tells Dreadwing to get along with Starscream because the 'Cons can only succeed if they're united.

Dreadwing is like "okay" and immediately goes to the med bay to kill Starscream. While Starscream is cowering and pleading, Megatron storms in and orders Dreadwing to stand down. Dreadwing refuses but right before he can kill Starscream, Megatron shoots a hole straight through him.

So, Megatron would have preferred to keep both Starscream and Dreadwing on his team . . . and IMO he did initially prefer Dreadwing's vibe to Starscream's. After all, why wouldn't an ex-gladiator prefer the hulking warrior who has the strength and confidence to directly confront his foes, over the lanky, conniving guy who has to plot in the shadows and backstab to accomplish his goals?

But when he only had a second to decide between the two, Megatron shot the big buff guy who kept failing missions and was actively disobeying him, and saved the skinny sneaky guy who--even hobbled by the loss of his t-cog--had succeeded in obtaining four important relics and who could (somewhat) be controlled.

Dreadwing might have been a better person than Starscream, but Starscream was a better Decepticon. And making Megatron realize that was the most significant thing Dreadwing ever did on the show.

Ok but... but... the new john-saves-yashas-life-scene is not only so much more intimate, but also it goes from being coincidence to yasha's own fault? Like... pls correct me if I'm wrong, it's been a while, but, doesn't the spider just sort crawl onto yasha and there's not really anything he can do about it because it would bite? And john notices, bc he always knows yasha, and he knows something is off. But in s3, the near-death-experience is yasha's fault because he is jumpy and scared and has no poker face at all, and I don't know what this means, I just thought of it...

i know it's just bc your character doesn't talk in the og mw trilogy but the way mactavish is completely silent in mw2's final mission with price after being so talkative the entire game is just haunting

he's lost his entire team and not even price being back can cut through his grief

the whole game, he gives orders and comments on things but after losing everyone, after trying to get any kind of reassurance from price just to get a sanctimonious monologue back at him, he doesn't say a word

just shuts down, only caring about the mission, only following orders

all of his growth throughout mw2, the five years he spent becoming a captain and building his own team and the second price calls him “soap” it’s all gone; he regresses back to the sergeant

voiceless. faceless

soap

Feels bad for my other ocs as they watch me enter my 7th consecutive month of hyperfixationing on my fav and not making anything for them

Serafen thinking he's the scum of the earth while still trying to do good... Serafen clearly finding Vela kind of annoying but making a point to check in with her and make sure she's not being abused or taken advantage of... Serafen getting pissed that his dad flees the cruelty allowed in the Deadfire instead of staying and helping him try to end slavery... Serafen who was treated like shit but still loves his home and his life and people in general with everything he's got

Am I still thinking about the Eddie and Chris aspect of the finale? Yes.

Am I still thinking about how the Diazes (especially Helena) were so shitty throughout the whole situation? Yes.

Am I doing this poll just to ease some pf my hatred and vitriol towards the Diaz parents for taking Chris and being gleeful about despite their son and his future husband being heartbroken that he has to let his son go and who are now more than likely are going to make Chris miserable while he's struggling because they love to infantilize him because of his CP even though the kid is going to high school soon and want to see if people feel the same way I do and just see people talk about how much they hate the Diazes and by extension, the Buckleys?

...

No comment...

I still think Buck should've walked Maddie down the aisle and I will die on that hill.

hey guys I just connected some dots and when I say to you that we owe every 5sos gf since 2011 so much better treatment that doesn’t even cover half of it. it’s one thing to empathise over the internet sure but when it’s a real person less than 2 degrees of separation from you it feels so much more like. this is a human who deserves to be adored and celebrated just as much as a man she’s associated with and it’s like. I know I can’t gift anyone else the experience of empathy in like being a local or whatever but when I tell you that this fandom has inadvertently done so much damage to not only women who happened to know the boys but also to their professional careers and music and things they choose to share with us (or stop sharing with us) please believe me and please join the conversation around the fact that yes we’ve done a really shitty job in the past. but we’re growing up and we can do better I believe that 100%
