i want to believe that the first time minimus reveals his fox alt mode it’s at swerve’s bar, and he’s in his irreducible form cause he got some surface-level injuries and velocity won’t let him have his outer armor back until it’s fixed. he’s felt so embarrassed all day because people have been doing double takes as they pass him in the hall. rodimus squealed when he saw him. he squealed. he feels utterly humiliated, and that’s why he’s decided to get utterly shitfaced.
so he’s just drinking at a booth in the corner and feeling sorry for himself when he realizes that megatron has sat down next to him. megs is looking concerned (and also thinking ‘oh shit did minimus get smaller’). Part of Mins’s processor is panicking because oh god he’s being so unprofessional and Megatron can’t see him like this ohh nooooo
But outwardly he doesn’t react except for a slurred “oh hi mark Megatron”
Megatron is like “Minimus, is something.. wrong?”
Minimus says “what’d you mean???”
“Ah, well, I’ve never seen you drink so… heavily, before.”
For some reason, this seems to set Minimus off. Suddenly he sits up, plating puffed out like he’s trying to make himself seem bigger. He’s like “well maybe you jus’ don’ know me!!! I can drink!!! I can be fuh- I can be f-fun!!! I’ll show you! I’ll show ev’rybody!!” And he gets up on the table (Megatron is like “Minimus what are you doing stop”) and yells “HEY LOOK WHAT I CAN DO”
