✘ tf: bayverse | sideswipe

[video]

[The room is completely splattered in paint. Where did Sideswipe get paint? Who knows. Probably the junk pile.]

[He's still got a can of it in his hands, and is currently tossing little splashes of it liberally around the room. It's an eye-searing yellow-green color, too. He just... seems to be tossing it around at random.]

[While swearing.]

[At... Mirage?]

[But Mirage is nowhere to be seen. There's just Sideswipe, and his paint-splattered room. The more he tosses paint around, the more agitated the Autobot seems to get.]

Would you --! Just!

Come out here! This isn't funny!

[At that last comment, though, there can be heard a very faint laugh...]

Don't you nickname him.

Roller Derby, I nickname everyone. 'S kinda what I do.

[And that's not actually the one he uses for Mirage but who's he to correct Sideswipe?]

It sounds stupid. Like you don't even know his real name.

If he has complaints about my choice of nickname f'r him, he can lodge them with me himself.

Just not if it gives away his current position in your room~

Charming. You're just charming.

[The sarcasm here is tangible.]

Only on occasion. And you could cut that sarcasm with a knife.

[What's wrong with appreciating the way someone else trolls?]

So glad you noticed.

Well, considering you cut everything else like that, it's not difficult t'notice.

Oh, now we're picking on my weapon systems. How typical.

Now, now, mentioning that you have huge knives in your arms is hardly picking.

That wasn't mentioning. That was nitpicking. Or jealousy.

Which I'd expect from a lowly Decepticon grunt.

You oughta get your facts straight on mechs before you insult them.

Ironhide ran you into a pole and you dropped off the grid for years.

That automatically makes you "lowly".

I dropped off the grid because I didn't want to die. The desire to survive clearly escapes you as a concept.

But that's not what I meant.

Nope. I'm pretty clear on it. Since, you know, I'm still functional and all.

Don't care. It's still true, Grunt.

Not for lack of trying on your part. You would have thrown yourself in Devastator's maw if one of your pals hadn't I'm sure.

That's very pot callin' the kettle black of you.

Those two weren't friends of mine. Just Autobots. Besides... easier ways to take that thing down than... whatever it was they did.

[He hadn't listened very closely -- that required spending time around the idiots, after all.]

Right. Sure. Which just proves you don't understand the meaning of the word "grunt".

Well. You aren't the Autobot's Lieutenant, their comms officer, weapons specialist, scout, medic, engineer, or a Wrecker.

Sure it's me that doesn't know the meaning of 'grunt'?

You say "wrecker" like it's something to be proud of.

And you're such an expert on Autobot ranking. I'll be sure to listen oh so closely to your Decepticon opinion.

Around here? Yeah, kinda is.

What so 'grunt' is actually a rank for you and not a generic term f'r low-ranked soldiers? That is really sad.
Also, you're still getting it wrong.

No, it's not, that's what I'm implying.

You're the clueless one.

You're dealin' with the multiverse now; afraid there's a different connotation here.

[He snorts.] Whatever you say, darlin', I ain't here t'impress you or try to win your fleeting affections.

Don't care.

And that's good. Because there's no way a Megatron-worshiping, defecting, coward is going to get anything from me but the end of my blade.

[Barricade pauses for a moment, and then... starts laughing. Nothing else. Just laughing.]

... Right.

I'm going to hang up now.
