Thirst-y spoilers likely

I feel as though I've said this before, though I can't reiterate it enough.

I don't need your pity.

I'll simply have to try harder to ...provide the sort of initiative that Lord Megatron desires. Soon I'll be back in his good datapads.

Soon.

Just you wait.

[Pause]

As for Knock Out, well. We did both think we were set to perish. I don't think I was unreasonable.

My mun seems to be finding me easier to connect with lately, which is... kind of nice, I don't feel quite as dead and gone this way.

[He smiles but it's a little one that is sincere.]

You were doing a lot better before he returned, if what I heard has any truth. He's not smart enough to see where fine tools make a more efficient mark than a blunt instrument.

[Since he's dead he really doesn't care if Megatron finds out he said this.]

Sorry I can't offer more, but I wouldn't have a problem keeping you company, and I think Knock Out wouldn't mind seeing a little more of you.

I can't say I'd begrudge having you around myself.

[and then he's practically climbing into Breakdown's lap to put a finger against his lips] Not--so loud.

[even if Soundwave isn't around, old habits die super hard]

You are - in many ways - the ideal Decepticon, Breakdown. You're good at what you choose to do. You don't ask stupid questions. You're loyal, and obedient, and immensely physically strong. And I can't fathom what compelled our Lordship to wish to leave you to rust in human hands.

Knock Out is...dependable, so far as it goes.
