THE MUCH COOLER MEGATRON!!! He’s big, murderous, and PURPLE—he’s meeting all of my standards oh no
okay so nah this is not Megatron, but close enough though this guy shares the same spark!! I absolutely LOVE the headcanon that Megazarak, the exiled ex leader of the Decepticons before Megatron seized the title, was has spark-split twin brother >:3 now I’ve already adopted this relationship into my c&m AU but now I think I’d like it to be official within my others as well—which calls for an actual design of the big bad boy!!
Our Megatron has proven to be an impressive tyrannical warmonger, however he did not have the ambition nor aggression to all out destroy Cybertron in his conquest for control.
With reformed faction upon reformed faction, upon movement to uprising to downfall and back again—Megazarak knew that there would truly be no hope for their race’s future, nor warmth in their husk of a world until he watched it burn.
I can only imagine what lengths Megazarak just about went to before Megatron salvaged and rallied their newly formed faction. To exile— but not execute his overthrown leader at the cusp of The Great War ?? Broken down, then hastily pulled back together for the sake of his Cause, by the sibling he once admired bound by far more than just blood. Through all the betrayal and fear, Megatron could not bring himself to kill his brother no matter how much he wanted to.
On the day they parted, both found their true definitions of loyalty.
The family DRAMATICS oh the POTENTIAL!!!!see Megazarak is just too good of a vague background character to not use and abuse as the ultimate plot device >:3
