[Ah, here we have the not-so-illusive Sideswipe. Fresh, red hot angry teenager for you, Moira. All those blue lights on his armor glowing hotly. Here is a robot child with a bone to pick.]
[He's standing outside his room -- if anyone knows for sure where that is, and... bristling. As much as a guy covered in armor can bristle.]
Okay! So, hey, are we done arresting each other for stupid stuff?
[Sideswipe 'mutiny' isn't stupid--]
Because, I gotta say, if anyone else has a problem with Riptide? You're gonna take it up with me! That's right. Me.
[A guy who looks more like a beanpole than a warrior.]
The great Earth-Cop Sideswipe! Team Bee's finest! And Riptide's mine to handle, so there. No one else gets any other ideas about dragging him anywhere, no matter your universe. Unless you want to get sideswiped.
Out the airlock.
...
Oh yeah also, if you're tiny and organic and some idiot the size of a building starts throwing down? Page me. I'll be your one-way-ticket out of smashville.

Nothing I'm saying's changing his mind.

That's what he told me. Bee, they just brought him online and dumped him in the middle of a warzone... just. So he could go fight Megatron and stuff.
And then the guy shows up and says he's their captain and they've gotta listen to him?
Re: Private
I mean, I knew he was a 'made to order', but... [He thinks about what happened during the Caducan invasion, about how he handled everything that happened there, and then thinks what that must've been like for someone who had just come online. Told very little about the world around them, just that they had to fight and destory after being only megacycles old... His tanks clench uncomfortably. He thinks about being told that Megatron is the one thing he was brought online to destroy, and then to have that just turn up and pretend everything is fine. That hes their captain and that he's a good guy now, and that four million years of war and devestation was totally cool.]
Megatron is still a decepticon warlord where I'm from.... It's so weird to see him trying to play nice. After everything he's done. In my timeline at least. I... don't wanna think about what that must be like for Rip..
Private
[He doesn't understand why that's so hard for everyone else to get. He's not sure if that's even a THING in his world. But if him and Bee can just get this so easily why can't the others?]
And he's dead where I'm from so. [Awkward hand waves.] It's gotta be worse than he's telling us, dude. So I dunno why these guys from his stupid universe are so upset -- shouldn't they get this?
Private
He didn't even do it yet. They're punishing him for something that he didn't do! We have to do something!
Private
...
We could push Megatron into space.
Private
Private
I don't know how to do this either, dude, I'm trying here!

I thought he was a tank.

Why?
