"Very well. If you wish." Grumble grumble. At least he looks as comfortable as he can be there, datapad in hand and still hunched over. Poor thing, the hangar really isn't big enough for him.

Connie heads back to the hangar exit, turning around at the door to give a vague wave before wondering why, exactly, she's doing so—not that she doesn't finish the gesture.

She's not going to get nearly enough sleep, assuming she manages to sleep at all before the inevitable wave of 'oh my god what just happened' hits and she's forced to confront the fact that she just met a sentient, alien ship in Project Freelancer's hangar. A sentient, alien ship that no one else knows is anything but a strangely colour sabre.

What in the universe just became of her night?

And that's a wrap (for now)!

So, this was his situation. A tenuous deal with an organic of all things, refueling with subpar rocket fuel (did they still call it that? He thought it was a bit like their rocket fuel, anyway), and having to hide constantly. At least the squishy was tolerable, even being nice to him.

He couldn't even go out for a fly. That was going to be a problem.

And the worst part... More than five hundred of their years had passed, they'd reached the stars and beyond, and yet there was no sign of his fellow Decepticons. No sign of the Autobots. Cybertron was from outside their dingy little galaxy, of course, and he would admit it was fortunate that the organic didn't recognize the threat he could be, but... Why would his kind completely abandon their presence here?

There was something very strange about that, government cover up or not. And there was only one way to find out. So Starscream dug into this datapad, back into the ship's systems, and got to work.
