I'm just anxious about the whole thing? Like they've done all this beautiful character development, and in Starscream's case he's not exactly a villain anymore, even though he's still trying to think of himself that way. I'm worried that whoever takes on the mantle will just.... revert them all back to default states because that's what the status quo is. And the status quo isn't interesting anymore? It's nice (wonderful even) when things change because that's life? Just. Worried.

(Always have the irrational fear they'll kill Starscream off, too. Like I know they won't because he's such a key character but. They've done it before.)
