Prime's had enough of this BS

1.(Bayverse, Some Cons have defected, Humans aren't happy)

Human:(Quoted from Borath's "Pitch")“Now, turning your attention to the defectors who have joined your side over the last year: what reparations can we expect for crimes committed whilst on the Decepticon side, including the murder of human soldiers and civilians?”

Nothing against that particular fic, it's interesting, but I would like to see, at least once in my lifetime, a fic that not has Prime answering "We'll work something out" but him stating:

"About the same ones they can expect from you for kidnapping and imprisoning their leader, killing their soldiers, children and said leader, injuring several others, stealing and selling their technology, oh, and our people's only mean to reproduce as well as one of our most holiest objects known to date.
Will you pay cash or should I expect a check?"

2.Or the same thing with the humans blaming the Autobots for bringing their war to Earth.

Prime: "I think if you would have just ignored the shiny cube and the giant robot in the ice, turned the other way and hid until everything was over, we and they would have just left and you would have probably never heard of us again. Well, but then there's the chance that you would still use steam as you main source of energy as well, so sucks to be you."

3. Or humans doubting the sentience of the Cybertronians: "You're made of metal. You have to be non-sentient robots sent by some enemies/controlled by an AI."

Prime: "And you are carbon-based, so you have to be fuel. You should be glad I'm not feeling hungry right now."


4. Or something similar ^^

THIS. Seriously, whenever the government started ranting about how the war on Earth was All The Autobots Fault, I really wished someone would point out that really, the humans started it first. Megatron hadn't actually done anything (to the humans) except crash on to Earth and get trapped in the ice. It was Sector Seven that kept him confined for experiments for years, all the while knowing he was a sentient creature. And then they tried to do the same to Bumblebee. Oh yeah, real innocent.

Honestly, if the Autobots hadn't shown up and the 'Cons had found and freed Megatron, I could easily see Megatron razing at least a few cities to the ground, if not the entire planet, simply for the treatment he suffered.

ooh! which makes you (or at least me) wonder: was he conscious during his imprisonment? And how much did he feel? Did he know everything that happened to him or just a vague idea...?

[synaltern.livejournal.com]

I always thought him to be conscious to a point during his imprisonment, or at least for a good segment of it. When he breaks free and shouts, "I am Megatron!", it didn't seem like a generic declaration to me.

Makes more sense that it was a correction to the humans who had been calling him NBE-1 for decades than for it to be a reaffirmation of his identity. Notice, too, that he said it in English. He got the language real fast off the web, or he picked it up over years.

Yeah, I was kinda thinking that too. I mean, in my mind at least, I imagine Megatron to have been unconscious up until Archibald Witwicky. At that point, he was aware of everything they were doing to him, but couldn't do anything about it.

And I would write this from his POV if I didn't have too much on my plate already and I could think of something substantial.

That's right.

He's much too aware of the humans, their level of intelligence (he aknowledges them at least to be capable of sentient thought) and the actual situation.
He couldn't have been sleeping all the time.

Ok, this bunny is seriously biting me in the butt (because really, the humans are SO in debt to the Transformers in general), so I'm attempting to write it, though I'm not sure how well it'll go, especially as it'll be the first Transformers thing I've ever written.

Good luck ^^

Let me now once you've published it ^^

I really want to see this! I have a similar thing in a story I'm planning. Let's just say for once I'm glad Galloway exists. He provides a very good scapegoat for the pathetic flesh creatures humans.

Have fun and tell me once you've published it ^^

PFFFFFFTTT....LOL! OMG, I SO WANT TO DO THIS! But I fail at comedy. >.
