Now that I think about it, in Animated!verse this is practically canon.
Ironhide almost agreed to after all... but then Perceptor said that he couldn't wait to see what would grow.
From that point on, when a test subject asked Perceptor about the effects of his experiment, he would just smile mysteriously and say "You'll find out..."
Perceptor just looked sad that no sparkly crystals started growing like they should have.
Makes me think of those kiddy science kits. How on Cybertron could Perceptor have used the stuff in one of those to make poisonous acid? ...I wonder if Perceptor (or Hound) ever owned one of those rock tumblers that makes the rocks all pretty and shiny. I had one of those once.
Though if Shockwave is part of his own lab equipment... then Perceptor is lab equipment, as well. After all... microscope.
Having Shockwave for an older brother might be just as bad good as having Primus.
What fic is that I want to read it!

Possible. *wants to float*
*also wants to float* Sorry, Perceptor, but the more reasonable explanation isn't nearly as satisfying as the possibility of flight.
... Sorry, Rewind.
Oh, it's not just him. This bunny concerns Cassettes in general.
True... But we still have a basic understanding of how things work. The heart beats, the lungs breathe... how to eat, drink, move. They may not be geniuses, or know everything there is to know, but they were machines and should therefore know how machines should work. Which part does what, why that part is necessary to allow movement...
Yeah... so would they retain some sort of empathy for machines, like some humans are good with animals?
