Okay, first? Don't touch me. ( Gonna remove that hand from his shoulder for you, Swindle. ) And second - stop talking.
( You better believe he remembers the last time he's seen Swindle and the disaster that followed - he takes betrayal personally, not to mention the whole 'kill the Autobots' thing and the disappointment no one bothered to hide when they looked at him. But that was before... before everything. Not for the first time he finds himself wishing Ultra Magnus and Drift were there. But Drift is-- he's gone and Ultra Magnus or Minimus Ambus or whatever Magnus wanted to call himself is dead and it's just him.
Time for some creative problem solving. WWDaUMD? Drift would advocate forgiveness and Magnus would just arrest him on the spot. Right, okay, Rodimus has totally got this. )
Right now it's just you and me here, so this is how it's going to work. ( Casually assuming that Swindle will do what he says, nbd. ) You're not going to cause trouble or do whatever it is you normally do, and I'm going to try really hard not to hold the entire swindling thing against you. Or any of the other things you got up to on Earth - Magnus probably had a list. Got it?
( But yeah, the flames are pretty cool aren't they? )
NEVER BE SORRY
