[he doesn't see the point in pretending to be something he's not. as difficult as the changes are to commiserate with, megatron does feel them genuine. he knows he would be much more disquieted if he was trying to run the library himself, rather than seeking out quicksilver. that would be pretending to be someone he's not. if he said to velocity it was a life he hated that he left behind because he despised the violence, that would be lying. the training and the treatment and living conditions were terrible, but he never hated going out into the arena. he will never pretend to go on missions here to be the one to act diplomatically. sure, an attempt will be made where he thinks it's necessary, but ultimately he's the one that goes along to hit stuff very hard until it stops moving.]

I believe so. And what happens to all those artists when they overwork their arms on their paintings or the actors when they have an accident on set?
