"I do." Smiling slightly lopsidedly, Megatron patted Orion on the shoulder and didn't say anything more. They had had some discussions about it after all, and Orion knew as much as he ever would about it - he simply abhored violence that wasn't "necessary".
Megatron could, of course, in a way understand it, but since they weren't out after killing each other and it did make him feel rather alive, being able to pit himself against others in such a way... it gave an outlet that was needed.
"Hmmm, yes. The glyphs and symbols used in Kaon for champion on my shoulders, the symbol for a State Games champion on my chestplates... I would have used Kaon's city-state sigil, but that would be better suited for the Games themselves, and Kaon's variation of the challenge glyphs on lower arms and legs," he paused, smirking, helm tilting slightly, "I'm omitting a count for how many times I've been champion, and the other arenas I've participated in. It would be... too grandiose... to add such things for anything less than a full tournament or the Games."
By the amusement in Megatron's expression and the glow from his optics, it was quite clear he probably would've used the full decoration regardless of what was proper if he felt like it. He hardly felt any compunction about flaunting his skill.
