and all the possibilities of him meeting dominus, of him just seeing dominus, of rewind asking swerve about what he saw! and swerve being important to cdrw relationship with that!

and swerve... being important in general.

he doesn't look like he is in any major plot, he's not really a character with a big sad backstory or a big dramatic moment (because let's be honest—Swearth is not that dramatic). he doesn't have a particular character to be connected to; he sticks to everyone and has a potential to develop important relationships with most of the characters on the ship. he's a bit floating here and there, isn't he?

but then it's all in small details. ratchet gently respects him and his medic abilities. skids enjoys his company and is worried about him. cyclonus sees something in him! that grumpy guy! and understands him! velocity thinks he's heartfelt. misfire thinks they're similar. ultra magnus opens up to him—yes, drunk but it's certainly something! and it goes on and on.

and swerve does so many important things. he helps to cure cybercrosis. he has agent's 113 bullet inside of him. he, after all, opens a bar where everyone can rest and have fun. isn't that awesome?

and yet, he locks himself in that room. and yet, he hates himself to his core. and yet, he thinks he is not important at all. and yet, he needs to create a whole planet to get noticed.
