Prompt response: 'if I could turn back time'
Turn back time, eh? Never really liked squishy music. It's all a bit... insipid.
*is absolutely not about to admit to liking anything produced by squishies, even if there's some that he might not actually hate*
But yeah, regrets. I don't have any. I have fun instead.
Chucking juvenile squishies off cliffs is fun. Picking up Rodimus and shaking him is fun. Getting zapped by him after, that was a lot of fun.
Yeah, regrets and fun - I've always found that the two are mutually exclusive.
Still, if I ever do get hold of the tech, there are a few things I'll change.
Firstly, I'll actually pay attention to the no touching Blast Off rule. Although he's really fun to poke, I kinda have a feeling it'd be more fun to see what'll happen if I don't go breaking his stupid personal boundaries all the time.
Secondly, I'd deactivate Swindle before the whole getting put in the box and coming back online as part of a gestalt thing. No fraggin' idea who Screamer would have used instead of him, but whoever it is, it has to be an improvement.
Thirdly...
*is about to say 'the first time I tried to slag Megatron, I'd have done it properly, and I'd never have gone into the box in the first place', but the loyalty programming takes over, morphing the words before they can emerge from his vocaliser*
I never would have tried to take over from Megatron. Could have stayed out of the Detention Centre that way.
Fourthly, I'd get my old body back.
Sure, this one's hot, and it doesn't look much different, but Screamer put it together using Earth parts. Squishy made. I mean, EUGH. A squishy had its fingers wrapped around all the tiny little cogs and gears and frag...
Just the thought of it makes me wanna purge. Specially if they used incomplete squishies. Y'know, the juvenile ones - their faces are all weird and icky, and they ooze all the time. Swindle once told me squishies use their young to make fiddly stuff 'cause their fingers are so small. Why the frag can't they just use drones?
Ugh. The amount of stuff I've had to have replaced because Earth-made components just aren't up to the job... At least most of the bits are Cybertronian now. But still. Squishies. Disgusting.
