I-I didn't say-

[He stops and closes his optics, taking in a deep vent and letting it out slowly. There's two seconds of silence before Wing speaks again.]

I'm sorry, Ratchet. I was wrong.

[Saying those words out loud pains him more than he expects. Is he really that proud? So convinced that he's right that admitting that he was wrong is such a challenge? Surely not!]

I never meant to cause either of you any distress.

[He leans over and gently puts his weight on Ratchet's chest, hopefully preventing the medic from going anywhere.]

Please forgive me.
