I was rewatching source recently with a dear friend of the System’s… and I find myself absolutely stunned at the Autobot’s complete lack of common sense. What the Fuck Do You Mean You Could Not Tell Wasp Apart From Bumblebee. The Difference was as clear as night and day. You were teamed with Bee for fuck only knows how many vorns and you couldn’t tell them apart?? Blind Ass Mechs. What the fuck. For Shame.
Also: How the fuck did Sentinel Prime become Magnus. How the fuck did they allow that to happen- the Mech could not lead his way out of a plastic bag. He was completely incompetent, abusive to his subordinates, and he never Once filed his mission reports correctly. Not to mention his Great Big Fucking Chin looked like a Ballsack. I understand that they were looking for a political puppet, but Dear Primus. The Council could have chosen literally ANYONE else. ANYONE.
And another thing! How in the absolute name of fucking primus did Nobody catch on to me earlier. Did they not vet backgrounds properly when I was becoming involved in the Intelligence division. My cover as Longarm’s background prior to joining the autobot academy was as about as thin as paper. There was No One to corroborate Anything. And they just. Let me get away with that. I became head of Intelligence because No One Ever Did a Proper Background Check and then I only got found out because of a fucking voice match. I am Genuinely Astounded that my cover managed to hold for so long. I may have been a spy but that does Not mean I was not Good At My Job as Head of the Intelligence Department. I would never have let a bot with such spotty credentials join the department while I was Head. The incompetence there completely shocks me. I sincerely fucking hope they managed to fix that problem after I was revealed to be a Traitor.
