That's only because I'm missing basically everything that makes up who I am. Once I get my functions back I'll be kicking your ass before you know it, buster.

1/2

[AXL, RINZLER WILL FIND YOU WHERE YOU SLEEP.]

Wrong. Weapon.

[notglitching]

Function loss: universal.

Failure: yours.

Yeah, and those glowing lines on you are totally a normal thing on humans. Clearly you got something back. I haven't gotten anything back yet.

[Besides his broken gun and the scar on his face. While appreciated, it didn't help him any.]

[notglitching]

Circuitry not combat-relevant.

[It's a little debatable—while not strictly combat-related, the extra sensory data certainly didn't hurt. And was vital for tracking down his prey. But all's fair in robot trolling?]

Lack of adaptability: noted.
Confirm/deny: beta version?

[Are you a baby robot 'CAUSE YOU SOUND LIKE ONE]

[copychip]

Circuitry? Wait, are you a robot too?

[He would have left it at that but nooo Rinzler just had to go and insult him some more.]

Adaptability doesn't mean learning to kick ass with a loss of function okay? [It's about surviving with what you've got, and in Axl's books he's been doing a fine job.]

What? No!

[Like hell he's going to tell Rinzler that he's a prototype.]

[notglitching]

Program.

[And just gonna stare at that second line for a moment. Being programmed for combat, Rinzler's pretty sure that's exactly what it means.]

Definitions: also glitched.
Acknowledged.

[So not taking that denial at face value.]
