#been thinkin a lot abt what a fuckin tragedy he is#spending 9.5mil yrs Just being molded by what other ppl wanted even when he thought he was doing smth of his own volition#championing the autonomy part of autobots but never having true autonomy himself#& seeing himself Excercising that autonomy For the Sake Of Others as uniquely selfish#just bc it also benefits Him & grants Him the freedom he believes All sentient beings have a right to#which he can at least admit includes himself#& on the one hand of course being selfish is morally neutral in many circumstances & in a way exercising one's autonomy often Is selfish#on the other it's rough going reading that w the underlying implication of this being one of the very few times in his existence he's#Allowed himself to be selfish to such a degree; that he's been fighting for this thing he hasnt even allowed himself the liberty of Using#it comes with the territory of being the kind of leader he was shoved into being ig but that doesnt make it any less tragic#god not even getting into the whole thing of his own kind slowly coming to realize they actually really dont like what theyve essentially#made of him with their own demands n needs & expectations#so he rather quickly latches to the next positive view of him as a cope & it just happens to be deifying asf & gradually gets to his head#tries to live up to the new hype so much that he buys into it just as much as the fanatics & ultimately self-destructs bc of that#bc he spent so long being A Prime(tm) & can never truly go back to being Just A Guy but will always feel a need to be Needed#so when ppl Need him..... hes inclined to force himself to fit that need however he can. always has. thats how he got where he is.#'now that im free to be myself‚ who am i??' yknow????#which is why post!war!op is just a yumby thing for me.....#ooc. the robot gets me every time.
