[He bristles, as much as his stiff posture allows him.]
This isn't about avenging Megatron. He doesn't deserve the honor to have someone defend him for personal reasons. [Minimus has to remind himself of that fact at times - he may be his...acquaintance, but he had done too much harm to have someone put themselves in harm's way for his sake.] This isn't about your past crimes or his past crimes - but I will not stop you from discussing your past transgressions. This is about how we are conducting ourselves in this universe. You may not have caused bodily harm to others, but even one misstep provides leeway into unacceptable behavior.
If you are not confronted for this murder, what next? Will you kill others during this loop and justify those? What about your behavior after this? Are you willing to commit immoral acts if you believe you are free on consequence?
