"Sorta." Again. "I mean, they're almost up there with real people in terms of intelligence, but they're still not people like you and me. You get my drift?" "And why not? If a leader's not popular, he's gonna get overthrown pretty soon." Demolishor backpeddles quickly, holding up his hands. "Not by me! I don't want to lead, no way no how. But by somebody."

Okay, Spinister finally has this Mini-Con concept down. Yay.
Very quietly, he notes, "People can try. Challenge is a part of our society. However, unpopular leaders can and do maintain power." C'mon, look at Straxus. The nutcase threw people in a smelting pool. Spinister stands up and paces over to stand over Demolishor. He leans down and in, as if to confide a secret, "Because there's a little fear in almost everyone, and fear is nearly as good as a motivator as love."

"Isn't," Demolishor grumbles, folding his arms up and looking off to the side. "Starscream's not supposed to be the leader at all, he's just here until Megatron gets back."

Spinister isn't about to say, 'we may never get back,' or, 'a Megatron may never arrive,' or, 'it might not be your Megatron.' Stepping around behind Demolishor, Spinister says, "Just remember the combat training session. Dismissed."
If Demolishor turns around to look for Spinister, he has quite possibly ducked down an alley-way and made himself scare.
Alternately, Spinister has just flat-out vanished.
Whichever makes Demolishor happier to think.

...this had better not be another Thrust. One sneak is one sneak too many for Demolishor's taste, and two is right out.
"If you're still here, I don't really care!" he announces loudly to the air as he walks away.
