... I recommend that you perhaps be gentler towards yourself, instead of bringing on the recriminations.

You say you do not feel like you've lost anyone's voice; that, I think, is the only real worry here. Your situation being what it is, I would point out that by merely observing general trends and the available facts, the conclusion would be that hitting rough patches are a statistical possibility.

And no matter your, or my, issues, Starscream is enough of a distraction for both of us...

However; I don't exactly approve of one of the situations lately... Just because you have the icons, does not mean you have to use them.

[Disapproving jet is disapproving, even if it's merely expressed with a frown and crossed arms. The mundane can't convince him it's "for science", since that has not been the reason to try those icons out at all. :|]

[IT'LL BE OKAY. AT SOME POINT.]

It's fine. I'll have to learn to handle it at some point, but it's unpleasant enough to have happened to one of us, nevermind two, or more.

[Sam gets a small smile for his honest effort and a slight straightening and shurg.]

[There you go, giant metal buddy. Pat pat.]

Yeah...that's what happened to Megatron where I'm from. Though for, uh, like fifty years or something, not...ages.

[He'll be fine. Hopefully sometime this decade, or something. At least there's no snow here.]

... That would have been vastly preferable to the... at least millions of years I had to deal with.

[He's not... exactly... sure, since his internal chronometer glitched at some point.]

[He should go on an Alaskan Cruise.]

Yeah...millions of years is a really long time. Apparently dinosaurs became birds and some fish thing became humans in that time, or something.

[... Let's wait with that until he can deal with snow without having a crisis on his hands to distract from the snow, okay?]

It's not too bad. As long as you're not trapped in ice and preiodically aware of it. I have been around for a few more million years than the ones I was trapped, after all.

[Yes, still older than dirt, so to speak. It just doesn't make him... old.]

[Old, very old. Ancient, even.]

...did you know the Cybertronian who was "the wheel"?

... Er, no? I don't think anyone would transform into such a simple thing.

[There are those just as old, or older, though!]

Well, yeah, but the Jetfire I know said he was related to that guy, and that he couldn't transform because he was, you know, the wheel.

[Well, Sam is a baby. Let's just leave it at that.]

... Interesting, but no. There's no data indicating we were incapable of transforming even in the past, though there's, of course, a lack of available, fully covering data for early in the history of our species.

[Very much a baby.]

You don't know how long you guys've been around?

Not for any exact given time-frame, no. Our earliest records are shrouded in willful corruption by an authority that no longer exists as it did, as well as lost to time and the lack of anyone remembering.

[Well, Sam can't really say anything about dates. They seem to change every few years when it comes to the beginning of the Universe and the Big Bang and whatnot.]

Hey, look on the bright side: you didn't crawl out of the ocean millions of years ago as a tiny fish thing!

[Jetfire could probably give a rather good estimate ~~but that would force his mun to come up with something, so let's not~~...]

I don't see how that's necessarily a bad beginning, though. Everything must start somewhere, after all.

[maths sucks it's all good]

Well, uh. Maybe if we started out as something really ferocious not everyone would be wanting to, I don't know, wipe us out.

[He saw that Tom Cruise movie about the aliens with the water allergies. They're all out to get humans, all the aliens.]

If you started out as anything else, you wouldn't be what you are today, and we would most probably not be having this conversation, at least not in these conditions and circumstances.

[Well, of course all aliens are out after your delicious lifemeats, Sam; humans are making those movies, ergo, you're special little snowflakes! ~~wow did this get meta or what?~~]

Yeah, and...well, yeah.

That's right.

Very good.

[Pat pat

~~yeah mun doesn't know what exactly meta means so clarification would be GREAT like Tony the Tiger says!~~]
