[Jetfire just shakes his helm at that, grimacing slightly.]
Ahh, yes. I am... familiar with the attitude. [Personally familiar, since it was an opinion he'd held himself once... when he'd been younger. He could say "when he'd been a Decepticon" and that would be true as well, but it wasn't until he'd been fully faced with what such an attitude would and could lead to that ethics and morals had woken up and he'd re-evaluated.]
I've seen what that can lead to, and prefer to be a bit more discerning about how far I go.
[Shaking his helm again, Jetfire shrugs as he considers the first point again.]
And given that we don't belong in this reality, I doubt us dying here would be a positive influence as it would mean foreign sparks dispersing to wherever they go here... becoming a permanent fixture in a way we presently aren't even if we're still affecting Cybertron by merely being here.
