Summary
"We... we both examined the distillers who were held by the Decepticons before they were put in long-term stasis. We just..."
He couldn't finish. Hound encircled him tightly with his thickly armored arms. "They were coded like you are, yet had entire companies of mechs siphoning them... raping them."
Beachcomber nodded, sinking into the support behind him.
A soothing hum emanating from deep in Hound's chassis as he gathered Beachcomber closer. He had seen some of the visuals of the small mechs recovered from Decepticon outposts, stripped of even their minimal armor, limbs crushed, channel apertures no longer able to properly close. Their exposed protoforms had been distended in places and collapsed in others from the constant stress on their tanks.

"But fucking personal slaves?" you finish when she trails off. What the fuck kind of decadent society do humans have, anyway?
