Simulus did not see this coming and flailed his arms up in defense. He was not sure what to do in this situation. He considered stabbing her, but given the current company, that would be a bad idea.
“Please, get off me.” He says sternly.
With Spirit on him, this made it more awkward. So to better answer, he projects a holographic version of himself off to the side.
“Depends on which ancestor you ask. To some I am Simulus and to others,” the hologram switches to his Stimulator form. “Stimulator. But best known to all as traitor, agent of Unicron. And I have been kept in here far too long.”
The hologram project transforms, becoming the simulation terminal. Occasionally other bots of the arena, past and present, come to use it.
“I refuse to be the Vex’s entertainment. If anyone is to be entertain it will be me. But I’ve already messed with the strings of most here and grew bored. Until you two showed up. Then all new fun drama started happening and I saw new opportunities. And for the record…”
The hologram shifts to show the training room and the initial start of the encounter with Maximus. Mainly showing the Predacon smashing the room, computer, and then throwing a lightning bolt when Simulus comes out of the wall.
"…Your spark-mate threw the first punch. I had considered making it seem like the Minicons had gone mad to be fun enough, but more drama could be had if the hero seemingly went insane. There is no bot in the training room, he just severely over did things with sims.
And it would have worked, if Spirit didn’t interfere. Then I lost my arm, I could not do such repair work alone. But the alibi regarding Maximus was lost. Posing as him would assure arm repair and…other fun."
