[Tas grits his teeth, finally reaching down to take hold of Tic's arm when he starts shaking a bit more at Ralph's words. What he says next though is something completely different, and probably unexpected.]
....he wasn't always bad, yaknow.
[Tas glances away with a hard frown, rubbing the side of his face with a free hand.]
I mean Turbo wasn't a good guy by any means. He was downright nasty half the time, and didn't care 'bout nobody but me, myself, an' I. Winnin' was his life. Bein' the center of attention was his life. 'Course he'd be willin' to die for that.
[The racer shrugs weakly, letting out a heavy sigh.]
...but he was still our brother, yaknow? ...back then he wouldn't'a killed anyone. He prolly didn't even mean t'get RoadBlasters unplugged, but I dunno. ..maybe he did.
[The incident could have been what caused him to snap. Tas really can't say for sure. Heck, he and Tic knew nothing about all of this, so they obviously have done a better job at keeping themselves hidden than they previously thought.]
