[Video] :: [Locked to Ultra Magnus]

We need to talk.

[The enforcer's expression does not really change, but he does pause. His optics do not leave Hot Rod, staring at him, then nods once.]

I did not take it as fact, but as a theory. It seemed likely that if I gave the information publicly, it would have caused more discord than necessary.

I asked Vector Prime sometime after your arrival. He told me that all glyphless would go insane eventually. I could not accept that.

....

[Hot Rod couldn't say that he's surprised, but it makes him no less upset about it. Towards whom was his anger directed at, he isn't sure, and though he's quiet for that moment, his frustration shows clearly in his posture and the hands clenched into fists at his side.]

They make it sound like there's nothing to be done about it. But I can't accept that either.

Hot Rod, whatever happens, I know where I will stand.

[His hand reaches out for the younger Autobot's shoulder.]

I don't even know if they're right, but I know I will do whatever it takes to make it right. But it's been two weeks since you arrived and you're no different. Perhaps they're wrong.

[It's not easy for him to be optimistic, but he's trying.]

[It's a lot of uncertainty to deal with. He knows Ultra Magnus is trying to help, but it's still hard to swallow.]

...it's possible, right? One of them said to fight it. They don't sound very sure of what might happen either.

It's possible.

Hot Rod, I know we aren't from the same universe. But I think you're very similar to the one I'm familiar with. So, if I know him, I also know you have immense willpower.

Even if they are correct, we will fight this.

[That sparks a faint smile, and although it doesn't surface completely, it's definitely there.]

...you're right.

I know I'm definitely not going to sit back and let it happen either.
