While the lessor intelligent members of my species are off being idiots, I've noticed there's been an influx of our kind. Normally, this would not be an issue -- other than the majority being morons, but I've also noticed out energy supply is dwindling.

[He only noticed because he was totally going to hoard energon for himself.]

And large portion of the supply was apparently destroyed. If the ship weren't in its current state of low power I could probably right something up. With the right resources I could still do so, but I have no power sources to convert energy from. And nothing to store it in.

-- Unless Soundwave can pop energon cubes out of his chest.

Anyway. I'm open to suggestions. I mean the organics of the ship could be turned into a giant battery, but I know I know. Ethics and all that.

Either way neither of them are here are they?

[taselikeabee]

Nope. So I guess we will really have to rely on your help.

[aerospacecommander]

I'm sure it wounds you a great deal. I'll try not to hold it over your head too much.

That, you know, the Autobots had to rely on me.

[taselikeabee]

Actually, I assume it will hurt Megatron in the end. That, you know, he had to rely on you. As an Autobot.

[aerospacecommander]

I can only hope it wounds his pride a great, great deal.

[taselikeabee]

Vicious, Starscream. Absolutely vicious.

[aerospacecommander]

Oh don't tell me you wouldn't do the same.

[taselikeabee]

...Maybe once upon a time.

[aerospacecommander]

What? Do you have a soft spot for the former genocidal Decepticon commander?

[taselikeabee]

[ that silence goes on for too long. ]

I wouldn't call it a soft spot, thanks.

[aerospacecommander]

Oh? And what would you call it?

[taselikeabee]

An investment.

[aerospacecommander]

Oh. Oh. Oh.

So did you have something to do with his turning?

[taselikeabee]

From what I understand, he did that on his own.

[aerospacecommander]

I can't believe he just woke up one day and said to himself 'gee I've always wanted to be an Autobot.'

For the record, he won't tell me why.

[taselikeabee]

For the record, it's likely not of your damn business. Personally, I was dead at the time. He took up the badge after that so how could I have anything to do with it?

[aerospacecommander]

Well, if you have a soft spot for him and consider him an investment and he switched sides after you died then maybe you did have something to do with it.

[taselikeabee]

[ hold on. laughing.

so.

much.

laughing. ]

Did you fly too close to a star?

[aerospacecommander]

I'm just trying to come up with a rational explanation for why it happened.

[taselikeabee]

So ask him.

[aerospacecommander]

I already did. He won't tell me.

[taselikeabee]

Then you aren't meant to know.

[aerospacecommander]

I want to know.

[taselikeabee]

Then keep bothering him but leave me out of it.

[aerospacecommander]

Since he won't talk to me I have no choice but to bother you.
