Description Skywarp, having a Shakespearean moment. I still maintain that I ended up with a very "special" Skywarp. His Purpleness was just too pretty out in the autumn leaves for me not to have another go at this seekers-in-the-leaves bit.

For anyone who isn't aware, Skywarp's monologue is a revision of Hamlet's "To Be or Not to Be" speech. And if you ask me who Hamlet is, I will mock you.

So has he been hanging around Dinobot?

Also, you should probably be thankful he hasn't teamed up with Sideswipe.

Sadly, I have no Dinobot. He's my favorite BW character, too. Him and Silverbolt.

Why don't you mock them? It would be hilarious to see how many don't even know what Shakespeare is.

'tis a lovely piece indeed, and it has a special air to it... maybe it's just the fact that poor old Red Alert is raging there instead of spazzing out

... hopefuly he won't do any more brain gym... I had to re-read a few time everything to understand it all XD (me and my bad english, we sure need to muscle a bit! lol ) Hum... what if everyone play a trick to him one after the other next time to give him a bit of his own medecine? And for Halloween... Red Alert could have a real problem with someone stealing the others' heads "to find the right mask for trick or treat"... could be the purple master! XD (ok brain, enough. Sit. Rest. Gooood boy!)

My immediate reaction upon seeing the first panel with Red Alert: Oh, god, Skywarp don't you dare! Poor Red. But Shakespearean Skywarp is so full of win. Let the others catch him talking that way. XD They'd flip.

And I agree that Skywarp, not just yours, is very special, in that when he wants to be, he's a fragging genius. The rest of the time he's just too lazy to care. XD

"How do I love thee? Let me count the ways." ^.^ thank you so much for crossing transformers & Shakespeare, it's delightful. i read Shakespeare soooo long ago, but loved the pretty words, musical rhythm, & mental stimulation. (though i'm partial to his comedies, esp 12th night, gender bending ftw.)

The-Starhorse In reply to kenyastarflight [2011-10-10 02:04:11 +0000 UTC]

Yes. Sadly for Red, 'Warp seems to take special pleasure in harassing him. Probably because there's no Inferno around to stick up for Red Alert, whereas nearly everybody else has backup.

He does not, I notice, bait the twins. Ever.

Skywarp's monologue is the same as Hamlet's. I can't read it without blanking out, going into a corner, and bashing my head against it because I don't know jack shit what he's saying.
