I used to think that when you died you kind of wandered the world In a slumber till you crumbled, were absorbed into the earth But I don’t think that anymore
It’s canon that fliers were almost never scientists and they were made fun of for trying to be scientists. How hard was it for Starscream and Skyfire to become scientists before the war??? This just creates more headcanons for me tbh
He chose to die at home, far away from the all the medics and the nurses and the machinery that had kept him alive all these last stellar cycles. His frame was old now and his Spark was fading with age. It was the natural course of life, he made no effort to fight it. There was nothing else to be done now.
Autumn had been bittersweet for him, but Winter had been worth living for. They had lived a happy life together, he had enjoyed a full life indeed. Only Blurr had been allowed to wait by his side as the solar cycle drew to a close.
Okay so @cadet-dork shared this idea about a tfa Skyfire and I needed to share this because I like it to much and I’m going to adapt it into my own headcanons about him.
I would also like to add, what if his short term memory gets messed up from the procedures. He’ll forget simple things like things he did the other day, bots he met a couple times he’ll forget their names (and in rare times he will forget the name of the bot he imprinted with). He’ll just have so much blanks in his memory of what happened over the last month and he gets really frustrated about it. Hardly anyone really knows how bad it is or how much it bothers him.
Also he never tells anyone about the flashbacks, not even the person he imprinted with but they know something is bothering him but never presses him about it so they just sit with him and talk and stuff until he feels better.
