Poor Prowl, being a tactician and having to make those decisions has to be really tough. Good thing he has Jazz by his side. Awesome fic =)

Prowl definitely doesn't have the morally easiest job.

Thank you. :)

This was so sad. It makes your heart ache to see the decisions having to be made like this. The decision is wrong, of course it is, but it's right at the same time, and there's no such thing as black and white in this war. It's one of those times when no decision is 'pure and unsullied'. The description of Prowl and Jazz as twisted and monstrous hits just a bit too close to home, because there's truth in it, and that's what war does to even the best of sparks.

Great writing.

I agree, the decision was wrong and right, and yet WRONG. Prowl and Jazz are definitely no innocents or free of guilt and yeah, that's the truth. They might not be the worst, but they are far from pure.
Thanks for the comment. :)

I'm speechless at your long comment. First of all thank you for that! :D

Starscream will certainly never forgive the Autobots, and the same is probably true for most Deepticons. Vos is probably what Praxus is to the Autobot, and this makes it even worse.
The horrible thing is, how much what the Decepticons say is propaganda and how much is the truth? The more truth, the more difficult it gets to see the 'good' of the Autobots clearly. But yeah, the chances are slim... and yet, is that an excuse?

Prowl's facade definitely helps to keep up a certain image. He can't be seen as weak and doubting, it would be fatal.
