"If his standard is being huge gruff jerkbot with no friends, me pass. Is no good, being in strange place alone." Swoop's gotten along fine on his own before, admittedly, but he knew Detroit and the bots in it. He doesn't have that advantage here, so making a new flock - as it were - is priority.

"Ooh, Stegosaurus. Is good dinosaur, very tough. Big fans on back, good for cooling and intimidation." Swoop smiles a little, twitching a couple claws. He could talk forever about dinosaurs, really.

So... was Snarl instead."
