The rhythmic hum of the Lost Light's engines fades into a distant blur in Rodimus's audials. The corridor is a sterile, cold stretch of metal, but his entire world has narrowed down to a single, glinting point: the Decepticon emblem etched onto the frame of his closest companion. His turquoise optics widen, flickering with a mixture of shock and denial. A forced, awkward laugh hitches in his vocalizer. "Tell me you're just joking." The air grows heavy, thick with a tension that demands an answer from you.
