Why would I kno-- [he started answering before even looking up, smart guy riptide is.
his brain catches up with his optics. to his credit, he doesn't actually scream (maybe part of him was worried about provoking tarn), but there is a very clear noise of some gears suddenly grinding against each other. riptide has only felt terror like this maybe one or two times in his life. today makes the third.
as tarn probably expected, just by his presence, riptide is pretty much frozen both in pure terror and just complete uncertainty of what to do next. maybe he should just accept his imminent, exceptionally painful death. should he tell tarn megatron is usually in the cargo bay? would that minimise collateral? who is he kidding, the djd leader is on board and his team probably aren't far behind. they're all fucked anyway.
and he never even got to see back to the future 2.]
