Sunstreaker - my Sunstreaker - is a vicious, uncaring son of a glitch who more often than not only thinks about himself and his twin. [ It's blunt, and Tracks knows Sunstreaker would probably even agree with him. ] He and his twin are known as Seeker killers, among my Autobots- They rip the wings off of them, when they can. I've seen it.

Sunstreaker himself has a sword, made of one of those wings. He can be wholly, utterly cruel. Sadistic even, to use your words. He has- Problems that contribute to this, problems that affect his world view, but the point is he still has the choice to be cruel to his enemies, and so often he takes it when his brother isn't there to remind him.

It doesn't make it right. It doesn't make his actions excusable, even if they are done in the name of our cause. And what Knock Out did to you wasn't right either, in just the same vein.

But Sunstreaker is still my friend. If I can handle Sunstreaker... I can handle Knock Out. So don't worry about me, alright? [ Tracks smiles, soft and a little tired. He's going to have to chat with Knock Out about this, he thinks. ]

I'm more worried about you, Smokescreen. You know the smaller Ratchet is a therapist, right? I think you really need to talk to him. He may be able to help; there's no shame in asking for such things when you need them.

If you say you'll be safe, you'll be safe... I will take some thought about seeing a therapist.

I still need to get my t cog another check up. I think its slipped again. [ He laughs alittle and sighs. ]

My body is a mess right now. I wish my Ratchet was here

[makingtracks]

...I know how you feel. There's mechs I wish were here too.

But I don't think there's any use dwelling on it too much, okay? It's okay to miss them, but... Thinking too hard on it isn't going to help you. Make friends with those that are here, and talk to the Ratchet that you can see. He'll be good to you, I'm sure.

[greenhorndestiny]

Thanks, Tracks. And if you need anything, I'm here for you ok... We mechs stick together.

[makingtracks]

Us mechs have to stick together.

…Is it more comfortable for you to have these talks through video, like this? If we were face to face I could at least give you a hug. [ It’s a tease, an attempt to lighten the mood just a little. ]

[greenhorndestiny]

Its not safest. But I just don't like people seeing me weak is all.

I've been underestimated alot since joining Team Prime. I was an Elite Guard of Alpha Trion... you't think I'd get alittle more... never mind.

A hug would be nice, next time you see me. Go for it.

[makingtracks]

...I think all of us are a little weak, sometimes. But that's when you turn to your friends; we are a social species, after all. And as a newcomer, you're going to be protected a bit. Primus knows we do the same to Bumblebee back home sometimes, and Bluestreak before him.

You remind me a lot of Bluestreak, actually. I think you two would have gotten along.

[greenhorndestiny]

I suppose, but... I took care of myself just fine before. I saved myself twice from Con's snatching me up... you'd think the first time would of given me a tiny bit of respect.

[makingtracks]

By how you describe it, it sounds less a matter respect and more they're worried for you. Overly so, sounds like. Which isn't good either, but... If you get home, you should talk to them about it.

[greenhorndestiny]

I should do that. Thanks, Tracks.
