audioooo - dated to whenever it's convenient

Hi, Milly. It's Riptide. I, uh. Think I-- well, I'm not sure actually. I guess that's kind of not my decision to make on how selfish I am.

[riptide's voice is unsure, hesitant and slight shaky. it's clear he's not confident at all.]

Anyway, I just wanted to say sorry while I have a clear head. Bee turned out to be fine, I think Starscream went and got him and everything turned out sort of okay? I mean we killed a load of people and I don't think I need to tell you how much of a mess that entire invasion was. 'Cause, uh. You were there? [he vocally stalls for a moment, then continues, determined to get this out.] I know I've been a self absorbed jerk recently. I'm not usually like this, but... god, I don't want to make excuses but so much happened. It was like being back in the war again and--

[again, he cuts himself off. takes a deep breath.]

No. That's no excuse for how I behaved. You wanted to help him and I told you to frag off because I was too much of a coward to handle it properly. I was only thinking about how I couldn't do it, instead of doing it for him like a good person would. Like you did. I don't think Bee really fully understands what happened and I don't think I can ever make up abandoning him like that and lashing out at you but I still want to try.

So, sorry, Milly. Sorry for what I said, how I acted and just... everything.

[a pause. there's some shifting and it might be obvious he's recording this sitting down somewhere.]

...If you tell me to go frag myself, I don't blame you. I would too.
