[Well. Looks like Mister Big-Shot from the other day didn't get away from this one unscathed. However... while there is a human lounging on screen... it's not what you'd expect.]



So how long do we have to put up with this? I'd like to get back to walking sometime soon, thanks.

[Yes, that's right. It's a very pale, very lanky-looking young woman sprawled out on a blanket looking suspiciously like an Italian flag... Fortunately, Mirage got Sideswipe to consent to clothing, otherwise this would be a lot more awkward.]

I don't see how humans are supposed to get around on flat feet. Not to mention you all move so slowly. You should really look into more efficient fuels, too. Ingesting it every day? Such a waste of time.

[And yes, that's also right. Apparently the Autobot's only complaint with this whole matter is the lack of wheels on ... "her" ... feet. And how boring eating is.]

[Good job, Sideswipe.]

We have to refuel every day?

[Video]

[unf_corvettes]

Thaaaat's what I heard, yes.

[Video]

[wheeljackofalltrades]

[Whoops.]

Primitive.

...

Flat feet is the usual way to get around, princess. Unless you're talkin' vehicle modes.

[Video]

[unf_corvettes]

Tell me about it.

Maybe where you come from. I was built for speed, and flat feet just don't cut it.

[Video]

[wheeljackofalltrades]

...So we have to do it. Repeatedly.

...[Yes, Wheeljack. You're learning.]

Really? I know quite a few quicksters, myself. Wheelyfeet don't really pop up.

[Video]

[unf_corvettes]

Yes. Or we get yelled at in Italian.

[No, that's just you, Sideswipe.]

Then they're nowhere near as fast as I am.

[Video]

[wheeljackofalltrades]

...What's Italian.

[He's already screwed.]

Well you look immobile right now. Survival of the fittest, I think the humans call it. You are not it.

[Video]

[robotfightclub]

Okay, how long have you been human, and you still haven't figured out walking yet? It's not humanity's fault that you're incapable of learning.

[It feels weird having to defend humans and their feet, but seriously come on.]

[Video]

[unf_corvettes]

... A few days I think?

But, first of all, it's not my fault. I wasn't designed to be flat-footed, thank you very much. If they just had a wheel or two, I'd be set.

[Video]

[robotfightclub]

You might not have been designed for flat feet, but humans are. The feet aren't the problem, you're just not adjusting for some reason. Did you even bother to practice or did you give up the second you fell over?

[Video]

[unf_corvettes]

You try trying to walk like this after a few thousand years on wheels.

My balance systems are all messed up.

[... "I just gave up", in Sideswipe-speak.]

[Video]

[robotfightclub]

[Yeah, that's what she figured.]

Cute excuses. Get up and walk.

[Video]

[unf_corvettes]

Make me.

[Sideswipe just... grins at the video. Like an asshole.]

[video]

[adamndoctor]

Oh, don't you sound pleasant. And who might you have been prior before the transformation?

[video]

[unf_corvettes]

Fabulous, that's who.

[video]

[adamndoctor]

Ahhh. I think I may know you.

Pointy? Big attitude? Need of anger management?

[video]

[unf_corvettes]

Can't say that's accurate in the slightest.

[video]

[adamndoctor]

Oh! [smirks] This is rich. Well, welcome to the human race. Please try not to start wars among us, if you can.

[video]

[unf_corvettes]

I'll do whatever I want, thanks.

[Video]

[deusexraf]

We can't exactly redesign ourselves.

[Video]

[unf_corvettes]

Have you tried?

[Video]

[deusexraf]

It's not that easy. You guys - I mean, I'm guessing you're Cybertronian - can just scan a new alt-mode and change whenever you want to. We're stuck with these forms.

[Video]

[unf_corvettes]

All Spark, you people just get more and more depressing.

Re: [Video]

[deusexraf]

Gee. Thanks.

[Video]

[unf_corvettes]

You're welcome.
