Teal: Yes.

Sad stuff!  Got it!

Hmmmm…  Well, there’s always the fact that Warfire thinks his brother is actually dead, and that’s really hard on him. Sure, they were never terribly affectionate, and not even always all that nice to each other. But they were still the closest people either of them had. That’s part of why he was there for Teal after the whole thing with Rebound went down, even though before that he’d found Vape and Teal to be mostly annoying and bothersome. He knows what it’s like to loose a brother, and a mentor, and a friend all at once. He knows exactly what suddenly being alone feels like, and he’s angrier than ever that the Decepticons have the gall to do that to someone else. Warfire really, really hates Decepticons…

And there’s the whole “Antishock never really forgives himself for Hot Start’s death” thing. That’s why, after the war, he searches around for whoever needs some help, and he doesn’t care that Rebound and Deathtrap aren’t Decepticons anymore. He doesn’t care that they’re traitors who he at one time would have really despised. He helps them anyway, even though he’s got no intention of going back on the Decepticon cause after he already lost so much defending it. It’s kind of his way of trying to make it up to Hots for everything. Hots had such a high opinion of him, and always just wanted people to be okay no matter who they were. Antishock wants to be able to live up to that, even if he knows it’s too little too late.
