☭ (M!A or not)

((M!A for sure! Bitty Rigel’s borderline-scared of him enough as it is, no giant sword to the face for you, bitlet))

Battle intro: “Let’s see what the years have taught you.”

Victory: “Heh. You still have much to learn, I see.

Defeat: In a monotone, not-actually-serious voice: “Clearly, you have to be stopped. Rigel must be executed immediately.”

Assist: “You haven’t outgrown me, yet!”

Taunt: “Oh Guiding Light, spare me from this terrible fate!”

Reacting to Taunt: “Ah, yes. There’s the Ratchet in you.”

Flee: “Enough. I won’t repeat history.”

Reacting to Flee: “Perhaps this was not the best idea…”

Tie: “You’ve grown into a good fighter. I would expect nothing less.”

Perfect Victory: “You’ve been meditating too much. Spend more time in your own body.”

Finishing Move: Bringing his cannon into the sword fight. “A warrior uses all things at his disposal to win.”

Battle intro: “It isn’t often I get to spar with larger partners. Don’t hold back.”

Victory: “I could go for another if you’re up to the challenge.”

Defeat: “…You’re better than I expected.”

Assist: “Reload! I’ll do the rest.”

Taunt: “Ha! Size really doesn’t matter!”

Reacting to Taunt: “Silence.

Flee: “This was a mistake.”

Reacting to Flee: “I’m not done with you!”

Tie: “…Well now. You’re more than just talk and high-grade after all.”

Perfect Victory: “You held back. Either that or you’re more rusty than you look.”

Finishing Move: [Censored] 

Battle intro: “It’s been too long, Soundwave. I hope you’ve kept up on your battle protocols.”

Victory: “I expected more from you.”

Defeat: No words, just a challenging glare from his place on the ground. A dare.

Assist: “One of our little secrets.”

Taunt: “What’s the matter, Soundwave? Afraid without that accursed barrier?”

Reacting to Taunt: “I’ll show you weak-!”

Flee: “I am not finished with you yet…”

Reacting to Flee: “You cannot run from this, Soundwave!!”

Tie: Panting from exertion with a grin. “Just like old times.”

Perfect Victory: “Do not insult me! Fight back!”

Finishing Move: His blade pressed to Soundwave’s chest while his cannon whirs to reflect its light in his visor. “Do you yield?”

Battle intro: “I’m not sure you understand what you’re in for.”

Victory: “A valiant effort.”

Defeat: “Heh, minibots… never cease to surprise.”

Assist: “Behind me, now!!”

Taunt: “Perhaps there’s a reason you never advanced beyond your incarceration!”

Reacting to Taunt: “Noise…”

Flee: “Calm yourself, I’m not your enemy!”

Reacting to Flee: A toothy smirk.

Tie: “You would have made a good Decepticon.”

Perfect Victory: “Perhaps you should train more with Bumblebee first.”

Finishing Move: “Do not challenge me again until you are ready.

Battle intro: “Let’s see if you’ve retained anything.”

Victory: “What do you do when you are outclassed? What have I been saying!?”

Defeat: “I won’t go so easy on you next time.”

Assist: “Cover me!”

Taunt: “Cute.”

Reacting to Taunt: “For the last time, they are not meant to be removed!”

Flee: “Enough!”

Reacting to Flee: 

“THAT IS NOT WHAT YOU DO.”

Tie: “You are improving. Perhaps I shouldn’t hold back…”

Perfect Victory: “Apparently not.”

Finishing Move: “You’re overextended!”

Battle intro: “Very well, then.”

Victory: “You have the advantage. Use it!”

Defeat: “…He’s safe in your hands.”

Assist: “Keep searching, find them! I’ll cover you.”

Taunt: “Have you ever actually used any of the weapons you sell? Hit me!”

Reacting to Taunt: “Don’t speak of what you don’t understand!”

Flee: “Enough of this! You’ve proved your point.”

Reacting to Flee: “You cannot hide forever!”

Tie: “…Few have earned this right.”

Perfect Victory: “How can you protect others if you cannot even defend yourself?!”

Finishing Move: “Predictable!!”

Battle intro: “Your turn.”

Victory: “Get up. You’re too distracted.”

Defeat: “Good. I’ll have an order put in for your weapons to be upgraded.”

Assist: “All units fall back! This one is mine.”

Taunt: “Use your fear!”

Reacting to Taunt: “You will regret that.”

Flee: “Full retreat!”

Reacting to Flee: “Do not turn your back on your Leader!”

Tie: “That was better.”

Perfect Victory: “Why do we even train you…”

Finishing Move: “Useless.”

Battle intro: “Show me what you’ve learned.”

Victory: “Heh. Again.”

Defeat: “Very good. I underestimated you.”

Assist: “Run! I’ll cover you!”

Taunt: “Are you trying to be gentle?”

Reacting to Taunt: “Ha! I’ll get you for that!”

Flee: “Enough. We should rest.”

Reacting to Flee: “…We can stop if you prefer.”

Tie: “Much better!”

Perfect Victory: “You let your guard down again! Use your size and speed to your advantage, but never take your eyes off of me.”

Finishing Move: “No you don’t-!”

Battle intro: “Finally.”

Victory: “No God can conquer me!”

Defeat: “…So be it.”

Assist: “Defend yourself!”

Taunt: “Come, then! Come and reclaim your failed creation!”

Reacting to Taunt: ENRAGED SHOUTING

Flee: “This is not the end!”

Reacting to Flee: “COWARD!”

Tie: “…What now? What more is there?”

Perfect Victory: “I will not be denied!”

Finishing Move: “Let it end, at last!!”
