[Up close and personal video time. It's Sideswipe's optic. Don't mind him while he checks to see if the thing is recording.]

[Oh, good, it is.]

Right, so. Since we're all being so kind as to show off our tattoos? Which one of you out there can change the damn thing?

[He shifts over, showing off his own Glyph.]

[It's gold, definitely gold. And prominently edged in black. Good job, Sideswipe.]

I don't mind the black so much, but the gold? Clashes. Horribly. So someone get over here and recolor the thing, already.

[... you have no idea what the black means, do you.]

It's obsession.

...

You have got to be kidding.

Mi dispiace, little pond skater. But you share his hardheadedness.

I don't share anything with Megatron.

Except his glyph colour!

[He looks at his own, eyes narrowing.]

I am...Vector and Liege, it seems.

Not if I can help it!

... they have terrible color schemes.

And what are you going to do about it, my little pond skater?

As opposed to yours?

Paint over it.

Repeatedly.

Until it works.

I would like to see you try, argento!

[Seriously, he's amused by your frustration.]

I used to have pink. Paint does nothing.

I'm going to do it.

I'll find special paint.

Special paint for a special Autobot, no?

[A brief chuckle. He's finding this entertaining.]

May I watch, at least?

Damn right.

... You want to watch me paint myself?

If it ends in failure, yes!

That's not how I meant it, and you know it.

But it is what will happen.

Trust me on this, argento.

If you want the black gone, appeal to the other Firstforged.

Appeal? Me? Are you serious?

I don't make appeals to anyone.

Is either that, or enjoy your Megatronus favouritism.

Which would you like more?

Ugh.

This is ridiculous. Why can't we just pick the one we want.

The results would be horribly biased.

Besides, if you appeal to no one, who would you pick?

Whichever one looked best with my paint.

So...

Megatronus.

No!

The blue one! Blue and silver look better!

Ah! Nexus!

I have heard many people-persons are in his. Be more social and you will get your blue!

I'm plenty social! When talking is worth my time.

And how often is that when you are not instigating others?

Uh.

How ever often I'm talking to you.
