First, let us be clear: English is not my native language, I appologize in turn for wrong word orders.

I do enjoy stalking him when I have the time. Nottheless, there are things that I have noticed. Please, understand that I mean no offense, however:

I believe that you play him more creeper than he should, reasonably, be. I also find that Nemesis speaks less like in canon, and more as you want to him. I find this very off putting, as otherwise his voice would be much natural.

Please go back, and re-read the canon, as he does not come off as true IC as he might.

On closing note: the configuration of scheme colors does make it hard to read words, sometimes.

Thanks for your comment, anon! I think I've understood you. :) Let me know if you need any clarification on anything I say, okay?

First off, may I suggest making use of livejournal's 'light' format? Shown here in the FAQ, working with this entry, for example - no white on gray. If I get enough people complaining about difficulty reading, I'll go ahead and disable custom comment pages completely, so light won't have to be required

Forgive for such long delay in response. I have had little personal time for hobbies, and was unaware that you indeed had replied. I have no journal of mine own.

I belive that it was in the first few posts/threads of his - mainly with one of the Megatrons, I am thinking. I do not have them earmarked, I am sorry. I believe that was was standing out what the way you told how he saw the Darkness as a Pet? My view was that he say is as a tool, not pet. Unless I am misterperting English. If so, I am sorry. I have yet to read recent.

In the speaking less, I am unsure, but perhaps the word is eloquent? You say, personally, that he is middle class. I feel that perhaps his voice is to high class for such. Also, I gained recently hands on Shattered glass material, and as I a fan of Galaxy Force, I find perhaps... Nemesis Primes Voice is tainted with Evil Optimus Prime and somewhat of Vector Prime. I am unsure if you know the character of Vector, so perhaps you do not know.

I do understand that he has been uprooted, so, mayhaps..

Little personal time for hobbies? What are you doing reading Axiom? ;)

A pet? Hmm. The vibe I'm trying to work with is that Nemesis considers the Darkness anything but his master. As per Spotlight Sideswipe, he does throw a bit of a fit when he goes 'I command you to stop!' and 'I command the Darkness...not you.' On some level, I imagine he's aware that he'd the servant - it gives HIM power, all he gives IT is a vessel. Overtly, though, it seems to me that he wouldn't want to admit it - and why not show that it is at his beck and call? Or give off that impression. Anything that makes him seem more powerful.

You don't admit weakness - unless you're hiding a bigger one, or if it makes you look good.

His trivia page notes that he is from middle class - complete fanon, mind you, which is not true canon and I am not advertising it as such. However, playing off that idea, I also see him as adapting quickly to becoming Prime and taking on the mannerisms of the higher classes he was around. It's not uncommon for someone of a lower class to
