@optimistpax : "important question: does he monologue to his dog when he's alone"

The answer is ABSOLUTELY. He's even worse than Starscream with the frequency and duration of his monologueing when he thinks no one's looking. He doesn't show a lot of his theatre nerd when he's around most people. But Starscream and Skywarp may have walked in on Thundercracker doing an epic reading of various cybertronian literature several times. His dog, Jet, originally would leave the room when TC started doing this on earth but now she'll listen and sometimes howl or bark when prompted.

@foolishglint : "As if Thundercracker hasn't used his repressed nerd strength to wrangle his fellow seekers into a musical production with him. As soon as the theaters shut down (shot down) he was getting twitchy"

While definitely a funny idea, the biggest trait he has that differs from the theatre student archetype is that he actually doesn't like the spotlight all that much. He doesn't show a lot of his nerdiness to other people. Starscream Skywarp and TC had worked and generally known each other for so long he showed more and more of his theatre nerd side over time. A large number of the more perceptive seekers however have caught on to his interest. And Skywarp/Starscream may have made passing comments unintentionally which clued some people in. It's like the worst kept secret since basically every seeker knows fmndjwjdjw.

Starscream is definitely the best performer of the group and loves the spotlight when it's positive so his general eccentricities are far more well known than TC's. And while TC definitely was an influence on Starscream, the majority of Starscreams presence, flare, and personality is still uniquely Starscream. TC just helped him learn to enunciate and to carry himself well when talking to a crowd which just built on what Starscream already had. Idk if I'm wording this good wndbwjs.

So while TC might not have actively tried to wrangle his fellow seekers into a musical, he has several scripts and poems that he had either written or wants to write who would do well with actors.... There may be some seekers which would "coincidentally" be a perfect actor for a character or two but TC squawks anytime Skywarp or Starscream manages to get a hold of one of his drafts and yeets it into hiding before anyone can do or even read anything about it

I just want y'all to know that I'm making H!Thundercracker a closeted Theatre kid. He's an adult but he just secretly has some of those vibes. That is all thank you.
