Cybertronian Identity: How We Become Who We Are
Alright, so, I'm often thinking things about the whats and whys and wherefores of Cybertronian existence. The concept of the Transformers has developed quite a lot since they first waltzed into our imaginations, starting in the 80's (for those of us who were alive at the time.) Now there is a lot of media out there delving into the society and history of Cybertron. Still, even with all the answers we have now that we didn't in the 80's and 90's, there are questions that percolate in my mind. And while I might come to some possible conclusions on my own, I'd like to list these questions here for anyone who wants to take a look.
Feel free to comment or ask questions of your own. (I'll even add them to the list if you like!)

Sometimes it just feels as though nothing we do at this stage really matters. Now, it just might be lack of sleep talking, or my depression, but sometimes I wonder if anyone else feels this way? Like we're all helpless in the face of what has been established as 'fact' for at least thirty years, that we are all unable to break away from the destiny of the Transformers.
Thoughts anyone?
The Truth About Blurr
Falling.
A distinct sensation of falling through pitch darkness overtakes your sensors.
Air rushes past the audials. No matter how much you flail and grasp at the void, desperately hoping to catch onto something, there is nothing.
But is it truly falling? Or just a terrible feeling of being completely out of control, with no end in sight?
The darkness fades away, and images of the Forge form around you. Blurr can be seen clinging to pipes in the ceiling. A dead disposable falls out of it, shot through the chest. But that scene is whisked away quickly, and another takes its place...
Nyon, where Shiftlock was captured. You watch as Blurr murders three low caste refugees as they attempt to escape, though if they thought they could outrun him, the…
