Well no. I assume there was a body too at some point. [Seriously Rodimus. Give him some time to fully dispense the theory before debunking!] But if the Knights traveled through this part of space with a metrotitan as their transportation and he had to reveal his bipedal mode? Maybe that served as inspiration for this... [He gestures around him to the station in general.] whatever it is, was, exactly.

[Grinning through awkwardness is his best defense Rodimus, for just about everything. Yes they can both do this!]

And you have no idea how happy I am about that. [Maybe there can't be physical contact but he still leans in. Virtual hugs maybe?] And I shamelessly confess that I'd be giddy with excitement if that happened.

[Excitement and terror. Because if it came to a fight between Megatron and Tarn the collateral damage would be off the scale. And well, he'd worry for Megatron. Not that he'll tell anyone that, even the other Decepticon here thinks him crazy for having any shred of compassion for the ex-warlord.]
