Well. That could have gone better, Barricade thought.  My own slaggin' fault, too.  Had something I just had to prove, didn't I?

Was it worth it, Barricade?  You find out enough about this

*pretends Marco's last talk with Godric was somehow between sparring log and this*

Barricade probably didn't need to worry about Marco getting the Autobot party line shoved down his throat. He was a bit more likely to listen to Ratchet and Bumblebee than Ironhide, but already knew how stubobrn the weapons master was. And thus how unlikely he was to give anything he had an issue with leeway. Though Marco wasn't very likely to trust what Barricade said either.

He wasn't one to listen to anyone's advice without giving it a lot of thought anyway.

Marco's reply came as he headed to the gym. "Barricade, right? I'll be right there."

He shows up outside the gym a few minutes later, sighing slightly. Marco'd seen a lot of the gym lately.

yay for jiggered timeline?

Barricade looked down at this Marco character. First impressions and all that. Marco did not look that impressed to see him, meaning, of course, that he had doubtless seen the Autobots before. And thus, heardthings. Great. Barricade? Your luck was at least consistent. Just...consistently bad.

Well, time to get the preliminaries out of the way.

"You some sort of vampire, too?"

He needed to know what else he was up against. Besides Autobot propaganda.

It makes sense. Roy and I basically played that meeting like it was shortly after sparring

Yep, Marco was not at all surprised to see the giant, unhappy mecha. In his mind that put Barricade in a similar grouping as Ironhide, but there was no way he'd be telling either that.

He gives Barricade a wave as he approaches and shakes his head at the question. "Just a normal human."

Well, not-so-normal at the moment...but he wasn't one to volunteer that information.

cool!

Barricade doesn't trust Marco's word, if for no other reason than it seemed REALLY slaggin' unlikely that Godric's most trustworthy would be 'just a normal human.'

But he wasn't about to let Marco know that...yet. If Marco thought there was some value in being underestimated, so did Barricade.

He shrugged. "Just a normal Decepticon," he said, blandly. "You know where we're going?"
