5 stages of acceptance.

After you decide to swap sides and join the winning team, I strongly suggest you pick a mech or a femme originating from that team and attempt to win them over. It worked perfectly for me, despite the fact I picked the most stubborn bot of them all, Arcee.

Have you good a bot in mind?

… Good … Now, Lets begin.

Hopefully for you less handsome mechs you have picked a bot with lower standards, that way you won't have much problem integrating yourself into their lives and getting them to accept you.

If you, unfortunately, do pick an autobot with standards, let me tell you how I, Knock Out, got Arcee to become my partner.

Looking back on my time winning over Arcee, there seemed to be 5 main steps into getting her to allow me to become her partner, I like to call them the: '5 Stages of Acceptance'

The first step was, unsurprisingly, Denial. Fortunately I had anticipated that I would have to wear her down.

The second was Anger, also unsurprising. It has since come to my attention that this is her primary setting.

The third was Bargaining (Or blackmail). I'm still unsure on that account.

The fourth was the most shocking of them all, Depression. I almost backed off at this point, mostly due to Dr. Doom's favourite wrench taking flying lessons.

The final step, Acceptance! This was the most important step, and one I was finally glad to reach...
