>>124801124>Love =/= romance.See this is I think where I'm having trouble seeing your point of view. It's obvious that anything with emotions can have attachments, we've seen it even with regular ass animals
though of course none of them sexless because the only sexless creatures on the planet are incapable of emotioningSo what's stopping the leap from "I love this character" to "I want to romance this character so she loves me back"? After all if we wanted to go down to the brass tacks and just use regular old definitions then it's just
>relationship between two people who are in love with each other but who are not married to each other.So if the transformers can feel love for each other, why would it be strange if two of them just happened to find more so for a singular one of them over the others? It's not like they don't have favoritism, hatred for a single being, remorse when one dies, what's the breaking point for you that means they can love, but not feel it more for one individual than the others for their personality or actions, even though you must concede its certainly possible to hate one individual over their personality or actions?
Like I said, I'm just not seeing the breaking point here where romance is a step too far when bloodlust or a million year long hatred between Optimus and Megatron exists. If one extreme can exist than so must the other.
>. I still didn't like that 95% of Silverbolt's character revolved around her thoughI liked it because she was the one who needed to build up her character and earn her redemption and healing. It served a story purpose to help lift her up and also show Primal's stern side when he had to put his foot down about him seeing her. We got to see Rattraps distrust come out, Rhinox being sage, in the context of the story it fit because he saw himself as a knight in shining armor and Transmutate certainly helped show it wasn't just her that he did that for.
