[The scent means nothing to a Cybertronian - these are organic plants, something that is pleasant to the human senses. Why is he remembering this as he lays dying? Where is the pain of a body torn apart by a chainsaw? He rests his hands on his wound-
-and finds soft flesh. Scorponok lifts his head, and yup, it's skin. There's no blood, and no injury.] What happened?
[But before he can get answers, he's ushered off the stage. The large man wrapped only in a simple purple robe leaves the perimeter of the stage, but any questions are put aside for self-analysis. He pokes an prods at his fleshy body, muttering things like "fascinating" and "but how?". His grin grows with each passing second, and it gleams when he lifts up the cloth covering his lower half for a peak.]
The Audience
And you are...? And you are...? [Being alive is great! Turning into a different species is awesome! And here are plenty of live specimens to talk to!] So this "mermaid" I am - why must I wear this eyepatch? Does it improve my night vision? What are your mores on physical modesty? How often do you eat? How often do you sleep?
