TF OC - Screwloose

Woo, I'm on a roll again with my OC refs! Here's Screwloose! Ampliflier has mentioned several times that they'd like to see a ref for him but I wasn't able to find his design in my head until now. I really like how he turned out; his armor and colors are kind of chaotic, but that's exactly how he's supposed to be!

This boy here is the communications officer and assistant security director for Autobot Outpost Kappa Four. He's optimistic and laidback and always wants to believe the best of people. It's ironic that he's this way, given how much pain he's endured. Screwloose was sparked prematurely, which resulted in a processor glitch that is the bane of his existence. He was put through a lot of bullying when he was young because his systems would lock up and he would stutter, but he's always refused to let the glitch stop him from achieving good things, such as learning new languages. He gets discouraged when he's forced to rely on others and doesn't realize that it's those times that he finds his closest friends. He's dependable, witty and soft-spoken, so he makes those friends pretty easily. 

Because most people don't get to know him that well, he can seem fairly mysterious at times and sometimes he takes advantage of that; people underestimate how perceptive he is, so when he knows something about someone, he keeps the information close in case it comes in handy. It's not uncommon for his teammates to turn around and find him watching with his signature coy, lopsided grin. He may be secretive, but he's not manipulative; if he learns something concerning, he'll automatically try to help or go find someone who can. He cares a lot about others' feelings and hates conflict; fighting is where he feels inadequate because too much stress takes a lot out of him and he's deathly afraid of failing his friends and getting them hurt. If he does think he's failed somehow, he'll do anything in his power to make up for it.

Screwloose transforms into a Polaris Slingshot and his voice actor is David Strathairn.
