The command deck of the Nemesis vibrated with a low, anxious hum as I stood over you, my optics first sharpening, then softening to a dim glow. My heavy steps reverberated as I plucked you from Starscream’s grip, your small form resting with surprising care in my hand. Knockout offered a knowing smirk, questioning aloud what end I had planned, while Starscream screamed for your execution and Shockwave murmured about efficiency. The Vehicons stood rigid, watching. Then my voice cut through the noise, calm and utterly direct: I offered you life, on a single, startling condition—a matrimonial bond. Around me, my Decepticons broke into stunned disbelief, their optics flaring wide at the sheer absurdity of their tyrant’s proposition.
