If you give a Seeker a Violin...
//Alright! This is actually going to be pretty funny because I was (painfully) watching my little cousin playing his violin out of tune, and that made me remember a memory of a tv show episode of my childhood. (If you grew up in the 90s and VERY early 2000s, you will know what I'm talking about.) //
I could imagine that as kids, the Elite Trine got saddled with a specific instrument to practice totally against their will. Thundercracker got stuck with a flute (which was not easy for him because he ran of breath very quickly), Skywarp got the guitar, which he actually enjoyed, and Starscream got the violin.
Starscream absolutely hated the violin because no matter how many lessons he went to, he was really bad at the instrument. Ironically, he and Thundercracker swapped instruments at one point and they found out that they were actually good with playing them. But their mother was having none of that and told them to stick to the instruments they were given.
So fast forwards 26 years later and Starscream gets a package in the mail and when he opens it, he's appalled to see that it was his old violin that he thought he donated back in high school, and there was a note from Skywarp that said "You are lucky that I found this. Mum said she would kill you if you had thrown this thing away. - Sky"
So, he takes it out and kind of walks towards the rest of the Decepticons, with this very annoyed look on his face. Megatron notices the violin and when he asks about it, Starscream looked at him.
"I suggest you find some noise-cancelling headphones, because fair warning...it's going to be sounding like a trapped cat in here for the next two hours."
"Oh, come on. That was 26 years ago, Starscream. You still can't be that bad at playing a simple instrument, can you?"
And as soon as those words left Megatron's lips, Starscream sighed and just gave him a 'Don't say I didn't warn you' look before getting into position and started trying to play Canon in D Minor.
And safe to say, everyone was practically covering their ears and begging for him to stop over the screeching and scraping of the violin strings.
