[There's a lot of beeping noises. Someone trying to push buttons and accidentally mashing down the entire keypad.]

[Several times.]

[Eventually there's a grunt--]

There. Now. Leave--

[BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP.]

Why? What does he like so much about us flesh sacks?

[He's never spoken to an alien about the waste of humanity before. This is new.]

Prime... has always been of soft spark for others. For those he grows fond of.

He has said he sees something of us in your kind. I do not.

[It's because humans are squishy. Probably.]

But I trust his word -- I will do as he orders.

Is your kind overly destructive and yet somehow creative and curious at the same time?

[He will agree humans are very squishy. It's amazing the Omnic Crisis went as it had.]

But you also question him?

[heavyweaponsbot]

Our enemies, yes. They have... destroyed our planet in their quest for dominance.

[Listen... he will also maintain Autobots and Decepticons are totally different things.]

Yeah. He is our leader, not our overlord.

Every race destroys something in a quest for dominance. How much have you destroyed fighting them back? War is destructive.

[That's just a frank assessment. He's a soldier after all. Casualties become statistics, damage becomes cost accrued, land becomes divided by the victors.]

Elected leader?

Eugh... hate it when that point gets tossed around.

[But he's not disagreeing. He knows it's true, and their entire planet is kind of... well. It's kind of one big pile of rubble. He's just got to be Ironhide about the whole thing.]

Mn. Sort of. It is -- complicated. Long history.

Truth usually does hurt.

[He wasn't expecting agreement of that nature to come so easily. So, this omnic was reasonable. Not a first, but it was nice.]

You'll have to tell me at the party then. I'll have time.

[heavyweaponsbot]

Yeah, yeah... Usually I am the one telling it.

[Ironhide does not sugarcoat anything. Like at all.]

Very well.

Turnabout is fair play.

[He does like it when the truth hurts sometimes.]

See you there.
