Starscream didn’t have many friends. Not any he could trust, at least. Oh, some of it was self-inflicted, but a lot of it was also being subjected to noblility that just wanted a claim to some kind of power from the Vosnian ruling family. The number diminished when he had come to the Science Academy. Not many outside of Vos thought highly of seekers looking to further their education. As if the fools had any idea what kind of system Vos boasted. They never looked further than the surface.

He met them as they met him. With defiance and suspicion.

The only exception was one other student. A shuttle who had been assigned as his lab partner. The first few weeks had been tense. The shuttle was, for all intents and purposes, opposite of Starscream in nature. He was quiet, a pushover, shy-

And almost as brilliant as Starscream himself.

Perhaps, ultimately, it was the lack of hostility and eagerness to draw him into discussions related to their major that had drawn Starscream in.

“Tch.”

Well. Looks like time’s just about run out.

[toruleismyright]

It's not my loss, it's yours.

[toruleismyright]

You’re so cute, thinking we could see eye-to-eye. I prefer you on your knees.

[toruleismyright]

Every ache in my body tells me I’m alive

[toruleismyright]

I was never truly meant to rule with anyone else.

But is that really such a horrible fate?

[toruleismyright]

You worried about them hating you and pitying you, but look how things ended up: they're the one being hated by you and pity is nonexistent.

[toruleismyright]

Frost covers my crown, leaving me with nothing but broken memories and a promise to fill.

[toruleismyright]

people call it arrogance because they're jealous of you for knowing you're worth more than them

[toruleismyright]

As kingdoms rise and empires fall, I stand on my pedestal, triumphant and glorious.

[toruleismyright]

my esteemed rival,

[toruleismyright]

And as the fire burns behind me, I walk forward because as much as it hurt me, that bridge needed to be burned.

[toruleismyright]

[toruleismyright]

How much is your dignity worth? How much for your pride?

How much to get you to tear yourself apart for me?

[toruleismyright]

Things are moving faster than I expected.

[toruleismyright]

Oh, I intimidate you? Good.
