''-Megatron to Starscream. [[Does This Remind You of Anything?]]'' }}

* Beast Wars II: Starscream's bordering on [[Camp Gay]], but sadly, he'd rather backstab his teammates than Galvatron. Of course, you ''could'' say he's trying to work his way up to get closer to the one he loves...

* Unicron Trilogy: Care to guess where the top quote comes from? In this one, Starscream is still a whiny nuisance, but he gets <s> jealous of Megatron paying attention to the others</s> sick of sucking up to Megatron for scraps and defects to the Autobots in ''Armada'' (Megatron ''will miss him when he's gone!''). Megatron is offended by Starscream's audacity. So when Starscream returns in ''Energon'' without his memories, Megatron... helps. While [[Does This Remind You of Anything?|Megatron is penetrating Starscream's body with a large object]] as the below dialogue plays, having started with this page's quote. At the end, Demolishor, watching the whole thing, says, "Whew! That looked like it hurt!" I'll be in my bunk.

"Meg... a... tron!" }}

** The point of this exchange was that Starscream had lost his memories and Megatron wanted to make it very clear to the confused mech that he lived for Megatron and Megatron alone. After this, Megs gets the perfect soldier: The rare Starscream who does anything that Megatron commands him to do, without question, and whenever Screamer ''does'' wonder who he is Megatron shuts him up and puts him back in the kitchen so that the 'rebelling/getting self killed' bit from ''Armada'' doesn't repeat itself.

* Bayverse: Megatron and Starscream are the only Decepticons with much verbal screentime, so their dependence on each other is highlighted. This is the only incarnation where a battle-damaged Megatron calls on ''Starscream'' to help him!

** Their only conversation in the first movie:

'''Megatron:''' You fail me yet again, Starscream. }}

** From ''Revenge Of The Fallen'', three words:

** Megatron and Starscream have kids, too. If that isn't out of place and creepy enough, Megs gets back into domestic abuse form and roughs Starscream up around them, ''killing one of them''. Though in all fairness, they're less 'kids' and more 'clone soldiers.'

*** [[This Troper]] has been in the fandom for two years. She's usually dismissed Megascream as [[Fan Wank]] and [[Relationship Writing Fumble]] due to the brown-coned aspect of Starscream's personality but after ROTF is forced to accept it as canon.

* And now we can add ''[[Transformers Prime]]'' to the list. {{spoiler|Episode Six where Starscream finds a near-dead Megatron. Ol' Screamer lands ''on top'' of Megatron and moves his face closer to his. Subtext? We don't need no subtext!}}

** This quote from ''Partners'':

** We get lines like "my dearest Megatron" and such, going both ways. It usually means [[Terms of Endangerment|pain is about to ensue]], though.

** Even the ''humans'' start noticing it, as Agent Fowler reports to his superior (while summing up Starscream's entire character and purpose in the franchise) in a [[Recap Episode]].

== Megatron/Optimus Prime ==

* Just to get it out of the way, before Starscream was a know-it-all commander, he was a know-it-all scientist and explorer. And Skyfire/Jetfire was his partner. LAB partner. Yeah... Fanfic count 68.

** Now 105.

'''Starscream:''' ''Oh, yes!'' [[Happiness in Slavery|It's far more exciting!]] And one day I will be leader of the Decepticons and you will be my second-in-command.<br />

'''Skyfire:''' I will do my best. }}

** And in the Japanese Dub, the line when Cliffjumper hops into Mirage's lap is "Do what ever you want with me."

** ''[[Transformers Robots in Disguise]]'' gets what is pretty much a remake of that episode, but Ironhide gets the Cliffjumper role. When 'hide confronts Mirage, it all comes off like a breakup. {{spoiler|In the original, Cliffjumper had simply jumped to conclusions, followed by Mirage actually getting brainwashed. In this version, it's a plan Mirage has but can't let the others in on because he's been bugged. Cliffjumper comes off as being ''totally'' out of his processor; not so much Ironhide.}}

'''Ironhide:''' "I can't believe you're saying this! You and me are history!" }}

* In the episode "Home Is Where The Spark Is", [[Kid Appeal Character|Bumblebee]] is pushed to the ground by Prowl and he [[Ridiculously-Human Robots|blushes]]. Uh-huh...
