Just so yall know, very angsty, idk any specific triggers but be fore warned to proceed with caution!
[Superion’s voice echoed across the bond as Slingshot suddenly came back to consciousness, standing in his room. The wounds on his shoulder are still bleeding energon. He blinked and then felt like he was going to be sick. He’d been caught. Again. He could feel Superion’s anger pressing down on him like a physical weight. He gasped for breath under the scrutiny as if his lungs had been knocked from him]
You idiot. You complete and total worthless idiot! Can’t even listen to one simple order! I tell you that you cannot go see that Decepticon, I didn’t even ban you from the Decepticons as a whole! Just that one! The one that has hurt you and your brothers and tried to kill the whole lot of you! But no! You are too selfish and self absorbed and shortsighted to even acknowledge the reason in my request!
I know you think you are tough, but you are nothing. Nothing, understand me?!
No, you do not. If you understood, you would not have done it in the first place! You are a selfish individual who cares about nobody but yourself! You only care about what Slingshot thinks and what Slingshot wants to do! You never consider anything else, do you?!
[Slingshot choked back his tears as he stared at the ground. ‘Don’t cry,’ he reminded himself, ‘just don’t cry.’ he placed conscious effort into keeping his body relaxed, keeping himself neutral, a blank slate for Superion to project whatever conclusions he liked upon. It was better like this. If he argued, he’d only be a liar in his brother’s eyes anyway. It was better to let him be right. He slowly took in a shaky breath]
Exactly! For all your bravado you are far from a good soldier. What are you? You are not strong, not quick, not clever, not intelligent.
Why can't you just be more like your brothers? Why must you always be the problem of the Gestalt? Why must you always question orders? Just because you’re selfish? Because you’re conceited? You think you know better than everybody else? Why would you ever even think for a second that you stood a chance against that Decepticon?! Well?! I'm waiting?!
[Slingshot fumbled with his servos, unsure of how to respond]
I… I don’t know… I thought… that maybe…
[Slingshot could feel the tension fill the air as silence swallowed him whole. The gestalt bond seemed to strain into a knife point, cold and metallic. And then… laughter]
Liked you? You think he liked you? Slingshot, don’t be demented. Mechs like that aren’t capable of liking anyone least of all you.
Now, you will in your room until I decide you can come out. Understood?
