Gaaaaah I love hearing commentary of movies, and fic commentary is new and wonderful. Further insights into the author's mindset is really refreshing, and I love this.
And I agree with you completely on the killing front. If Megatron really wanted Optimus dead, he wold have been dead a long time ago, at the very least at that moment when Optimus/Orion is most vulnerable. The chance to have his partner back is too good to pass up.
Also, I love the openness of Orion in comparison to Optimus. It shows just how much the Matrix shifted him, and it's refreshing to see he's not as stoic and neutral as Prime is. I want to squish him.
I'm almost dreading the opening of the second season, mostly because fans have already given me the perfect continuation, namely this fic. Sadly, I know it won't go this way (damn TF:P for being geared to kids!), so I will continue to revert to the fanbase for all my OTP needs.
Thank you for your insights, I simply cannot wait for you to delve further into this series. <3
