Hey, so just... throwing this out there. Gathering a consensus... You know, for a friend.

But. Does anyone feel like they're being watched? Or followed? I mean even when you know you're alone.

[ Does Rodimus look kinda... gritty? Yeah, he does. His finish is a bit dull, like it hasn't been maintained in a few weeks. There were scratches here and there and his optic glass looks a bit streaky. ]

I know it's over. You don't need to tell me that, but obviously your fellow Autobot needed that little reminder after he decided to mess with my memories.

So sorry if I sound like I have my wires in a twist about it after he beat me and removed the most important things out of my head. I'm not as eager to buddy up with you 'Bots, especially with that attitude.

Primus, I wasn't even here for that! That really sucks, but I have him under watch now. He isn't going to be hurting anyone anymore.

You started it. I was just trying to make pleasant chitchat.

I've heard that one before, then he stuck his needles in me.

You certainly didn't help. "I'm sure he knows"? What a great way to acknowledge it.

The guy's been declawed and has Ultra Magnus and Ratchet constantly breathing down his neck cables. You ever had them pissed at you before? I have! Let me tell you, terrifying. He knows he's in deep slag.

I'm sorry that happened. I know Krok has been worse off. I'll try and make it right, somehow.

I don't really see how that's comforting. He obviously didn't care before and made excuses.

[He actually hesitates at the apology. That's not something he was expecting.] ...Mm. Thanks. You should talk to Krok, though.

I don't think anything I'm going to say is going to comfort you if you're set on it. You can be pissed off and hate Chromedome all you want, but I'm not condoning his actions. I think it's frankly appalling. He's my responsibility; it's my job to make sure he doesn't hurt anyone else.

[ There was a part of Rodimus that really believed that. It still didn't change the fact that Chromedome was probably curled up in his circuit slab right now as they speak. ]

Probably.

I've heard most of that before. I suppose we'll just see how much what you say is true.

I insist. He's our captain and deserves the respect of the situation being addressed.

[heroicpose]

You have my promise as Captain of the Lost Light.

He still under Ratchet's care?

AUDIO;

[forcowardice]

I thought Ultra Magnus was the captain. [With how Misfire and the others talk about the Autobots.]

And Spinister's.

AUDIO;

[heroicpose]

Nnnnno. Ultra Magnus is my second-in-command. You might be confused since he's acting captain when I'm not around.

[ WAOOOO. Let's also not mention Megatron. Nope, definitely not the co-captain on his ship. ]

Oh. Right, well. I should talk to him when he's out of their care. For his health and all.

AUDIO;

[forcowardice]

Guess you haven't been around much. I heard some rumors about Megatron, too?

Right. Also, because that's probably the responsible thing to do.

AUDIO;

[heroicpose]

I haven't really been here lo-- [ Frag, who told him? ] Hm? What about Megatron? I mean he's an Autobot now...

[ So casually sidestepping the fact he's avoiding the hell out of Ratchet. ]

That was the implication.
