Note: Speaker switches between the bots in the trine throughout.
You made several mistakes, Megatron.
You assumed that by turning us into seekers, we’d fall completely under programming directives to obey the Wingleader. Just because your seekers were content to follow Starscream’s lead, doesn’t mean they are without free will.
Next, you didn’t research seeker culture thoroughly enough, or you’d have known that the lead trine, and thus the position of Wingleader, may be challenged at any time. Then, when I made the challenge, you didn’t think it possible that a newly formed trine would be able to defeat your Air Commander’s.
You bonded two tacticians and a sharpshooter into a trine. Or did you not realise that? Three mechs with demons and issues held in check only through vorns of practice, forced into the flighty protocols of the flight capable.
Deprived of our normal means of control… The only trine you could have created that would have been worse for you and your army’s continued health would have been one containing both twins and Red Alert.
You never considered that Starscream might concede when we spared his life. And when we took his trine’s place amongst his kin, you believed that the seekers in your army would not pledge allegiance to us, since we didn’t jump at Starscream’s orders when converted.
But your biggest mistake, Megatron, was that you thought this was. All. Your. Idea.
