Orbital Observer

They’ll take what they can get. A little static isn’t really something to be worried about.

That answer is kind of a given, but they’ll take it anyway. It probably just means he’s traveling from one point to another and totally not starting to go crazy.

::Hmm. It depends on your definition of ‘cool’. Temperature-wise, there was a planet entirely made of immense ice structures.:: A chuckle. ::Though I doubt that was what you meant. I ran into space pirates a few times, and nearly had to trade my wing to escape one group.::

You are getting such a groan, that ‘ugh, why did you make that horrible pun’ groan.

Although the ice planet does sound kind of cool.

«Really?» «Are you needing us to come beat them up?» «We are excellent at beating space pirates, you know.»

::No no, that won't be necessary. I escaped them, after all.:

Huh. Where WAS he? ::Space. That is about as approximate a location as I can give you. I’m doing fine, yes.::

Yes, hello, pay no mind to the startled yelps. They weren’t scared right out of their plating, only babies get scared like that and they’re not babies, they’re soldiers. Soldiers are tough and strong and brave and fight in battles and get hurt and beat up a lot and they eventually die painful deaths and—

…on second thought, maybe being a baby wasn’t so bad.

For a while, the twins say nothing because they don’t know what to say at this point. Skyfire and Starscream were going to fight no matter what they said it seemed. For some stupid reason they wanted evict the Decepticons and take back the city. Couldn’t just find a new home, oh no, it had to be Vos.

They didn’t want to fight though, not anymore, not after Astrotrain - stupid fragging drunk Astrotrain - had them limping back to the medibay with their limbs barely hanging on, not after they were reminded how poorly they handled themselves against Lockdown, who wasn’t even a Decepticon but just a rogue mech who acted alone. what chance could they possibly stand against the Decepticon army?

But if they didn’t fight then Skyfire and Starscream would have to fight on their own. Who would protect them from the Decepticons? How they could possibly last on their own against an entire army? They weren’t soldiers, they were… the twins aren’t really sure what they are professionally, but they know they’re not made for this.

The twins were though. Jetfire and Jetstorm had been built specifically for this reason - to be soldiers, to fight the enemy like no one else could, and to protect those who couldn’t protect themselves. Back in their universe fighting like no one else could meant being able to fly, something that didn’t matter here, but they still had their mods. They could control wind and fire, something which no one else was capable of doing, and with their powers they could protect the others, keep them from limping back to the medibay bloodied and broken, keep them from dying, even if it meant having to sacrifice themselves.

At the twin's question, Skyfire will sigh deeply. He couldn't ask them to stay behind, no matter how badly he would like it. Probably as much as the twins would like him to sit this out. They wouldn't get anywhere telling the others to stay home.
