"He couldn't feel betrayed if he hadn't had some level of trust in the first place."

Hound! Oh, baby. You're in a tough place, aren't you? .___. All sorts of mixed signals, everything muddled and frustrating and painful. And it's the worst kind of situation, because you don't have any control when most of the action is coming from another person. All you can do is--

"He wasn't going to play this game."

--Draw a line, and take control of yourself.

But I think I feel even worse for Sunstreaker. ))): Hound can make himself believe that everything will go away in time, he can tuck it all away beneath being pragmatic and putting things (at least a bit) into a greater perspective. He can go "This happened to Bumblebee" and "this isn't okay" and then he can try to ignore it and go off and do other things.

But Sunstreaker doesn't have a way of coping. His emotions are all raw, and he doesn't really know how to deal like a person with regular social skills would be able to deal, so it's all just -- there. Constantly. And you show us ( ... )

Not the whole confronting Sunstreaker thing (that was just trying to be a good friend) but the way he worded it? Bad. I'm not a violent sociopath (I'm actually pretty quiet and eager-to-please) and the way worded his inquiry would have had me getting my hackles up. Not that he deserved getting pounded :| AND THEN HE DOESN'T EVEN BOTHER TO EXPLAIN THE SITUATION TO HOUND, THE PERSON HE WAS MAKING THE INQUIRY FOR. It's like: Bumblebee, sweety, no.

And Sunstreaker. I just. I can't get mad at him? Because I honestly had virtually no other expectations. I knew he'd screw it up in a big way and now that he has I'm just...sad for him. It's like watching an angry little kid who doesn't know his own strength trying so very hard to build a house of cards and ( ... )
