[ Rodimus smiles despite himself. Confliction. Yeah, he's always been good at causing confliction. ]

I think I told you once that another Megatron killed me, didn't I? Shot me straight through the spark and left me floating in space. I remember thinking "this is what I deserve for what I did to my home." Only the matrix saved me.

Every day since I've questioned why. Why would it choose me?

I didn't look up to OP. I hated how Megatron handled things. I felt belittled and useless and lost and afraid and then I was handed power on a silver platter with a sign that said "you can fix it all".

But that's not how it works, is it.

My spark spins because something else decided I wasn't done. My spark spins in spite of who's energon is on my hands.

I have learned that there is always hope for better. It was a hard won lesson. I had to break the known laws of physics to get a happy ending for my crew. At least, that's what Brainstorm and Preceptor said.

I can't say that people won't be mad with you. Won't hate you. You made choices, and you know they weren't good ones. I can't say that people won't constantly spit on your name and wish you dead. But you can do and be better.

What happened to that Megatron you told me of? The one that wanted to make things better on Cybertron? When did you lose your way?

I know you're still him. Can still be him. It just takes effort, and time, but Primus Megs, we've got nothing but time here.

You need help, Megs. And I know I ain't qualified to help in the same way Rung is, but I know... I know youre scared of finding out who you are beneath all of that bravado you put on.

I see through you, even this far away. I'm not afraid of you killing me. I'm afraid of giving my spark to someone that won't stop running.

Rodimus... I... think my connection is scrambling... I must recharge. I've used up so much energy just to speak to you personally in this way...

I don't know.... if I like what is under everything... I don't know if I can stop running...

I... will take what you said to mind... and hope this power growth does not erode me further.

[ Running again. Rodimus sighs and doesn't know if he hopes Megatron can hear it or not. ]

I'll wait for you, Megs, as long as I can. But I mean it. You have to stop stop running. I won't be able to chase you forever.
