Thanks! :)

I'm ashamed to admit that I have no IDW knowledge whatsoever anymore, even worse for recent developments in the comics. Nevertheless, the basic conflict here is the same that must come up in every war at one point, so I had no problem following the fic

I love the IDW comics, I'm collecting the volumes. ^^ The recent developments are especially interesting, because the distinction between Cons and Autobots becomes greyer and greyer.

Innocence lost here, and that's something noone can regain. :/ But yeah, I totally agree with you. OP just sees his ideals, but reality demands often something different.

The human used Megatron's gun. So the shot would've been deadly for all we know.

I want to really give ever character its own motivations. :) And in such questions easy answers are just too easy...

Thanks for the typo, I'll change it. ^^

Gah, don't tell me something about gray and grey morality, or I'll be tempted to buy them all - again! °_0" I just talked myself out of it >_<

Then I think Jazz was totally justified. Humans would have been allowed to shoot each other under those circumstances too; it's called 'self--defense,' Optimus.

Buy, buy, buy... *whispers* Oh did I mention that Starscream went neutral and is now the ruler of Cybertron exiling Autobots and Decepticons alike? XD

On the other hand I have read about your mana collections which is just impressive. I barely have 50 mangas. O.O

:) You say it. That was the strange thing in my mind too about the scene.

*purr* I love this. I will keep LOVING this every time I read. It's so powerful and Jazz here.. *purr* I don't understand how OP can't SEE how wrong he is. Jazz makes solid arguments yet Optimus still refuses to accept -- either he can't see anything wrong (which scary in itself - he could end up sacrificing all for the humans) or he knows Jazz's right bus stubbornly refuses to admit it :(
I am curious what Prowl thinks of the matter :)

[silberstreif]

The mysteries' of OP's blindness... especially considering that they have met sentient organic races regularly. Why the humans though? What makes them so special?
I'm not sure if he can't see anything wrong here, or if he refuses to admit it... I tend to think more like the first one. He's Optimus, so benefit of doubt.
Prowl... mmh. He would totally side with Jazz and reprimand him for openly going against Prime. Remind me to send you a few pics from my new comics, they have some great scenes between them.
