#I would be more likely to redo Eda's turnaround ref than color this. and I probably will (redo Eda's turnaround ref)

[tachyon-omlette]

We could not have known that Unicron was capable of creating life, and neither did we anticipate to encounter that life; the reality of its misery was far less of a surprise. Its armor was far denser and more plentiful than Unicron’s own, and though he bore no visible scars it was obvious that his creator had been beyond unkind with him. Frequently he was plagued with nightmares and would go for ages without sleep to avoid them, and even in his waking hours he often broke down crying for no reason we could discern. Even his own reflection would send him into a panic until he’d carved a crook into his horn.

We brought him to Cybertron as what we believed to be a path to some sort of redemption and healing, but he was so unlike us Primes, and many of those differences could not be rectified. We thought we were granting him an act of mercy, but in the end I wonder if we had done him a great disservice, for in our ambition we proved to him that he was not unique, but alone.
