have a nice day

Silo’s status as Starscream’s biggest fan is only contested by one other - himself! Silo is a constructed follower, weak to charisma - and Starscream is just the right kind of personality to pull her right in. She thinks he is the most brilliant mech around, and is herself a combination of just actually smart enough to not have too many bad calls, and consistently supportive of Starscream’s own calls, that he thinks she’s just as smart as him. He’s fond of her and values her presence, both on a personal level and as the only mech who has followed him with such enduring tenacity. Silo would fly into the heart of a star for Starscream if he told her it was a good idea.

Other than being Starscream's second biggest fan, Silo is a largely average Decepticon, though perhaps a bit on the tall side.

As two of the more cool-headed members of the Nemesis - most of the time, at least - Silo and Blitzwing are as likely as not to be found sharing offtime. It is only unfortunate that the two of Blitzwing’s friends on the Nemesis cannot stand to be in the same room for an extended period of time without a not-insignificant risk of coming to blows. Blitzwing also has a pretty good relationship with Silo’s deployers, being fond of the little guys. He disagrees with her fairly blatant preference of Starscream over Megatron but, well, nobot’s perfect. Blitzwing would never call himself Megatron’s biggest fan, though, Starscream, really? Him? Silo was less than enthused about his ribbing. When he sees where she’s gotten herself to on Earth, well, he’s not surprised, but he is disappointed.

Silo and Lugnut are prone to butting heads. Though they are of similar masses, Lugnut's more compact frame has a significant advantage in matters of close combat. Therefore, whenever they disagree aggressively enough to devolve to physical violence, Lugnut is almost certain to come out on top.

Before Starscream, Silo was loyal to Megatron, though perhaps not quite as devoted as she would be to Starscream later (in part because of lack of proximity - she was definitely nowhere near him before she met Starscream), and similarly to Megazarak before him. Megatron is aware of her favor of Starscream over him, but similarly to with Starscream, he didn't know it would be an actual problem until Starscream exploded him.

Havoc is much friendlier than Silo, though about as chatty (i.e. not very). This friendliness does not extend to anyone lacking a Decepticon brand. Upshot and Downfall, the twins, are significantly more talkative, and given to gossip at that.

Silo and her deployers would love the Jettwins and visa versa if only they weren't on opposite sides 😔 alas

PLOT OVERVIEW

Silo accompanies Starscream on the Nemesis, and remains with him during the 50 stellar cycle between him blowing up Megatron and him arriving on Earth. Silo shows up a little later than Starscream, because she was scouting elsewhere. She is one of his lackeys, alongside Blitzwing and Lugnut.

In the period of time Starscream is dead, she is off moping in the woods. accumulating dead leaves, spiderwebs, and local fauna, but leaps up, eager to aid, when she receives word from one of her less-despondent deployers, who was scouting around, that Starscream is alive (though she misses Starscream's try-to-murder-Megatron-and-get-murdered montage). Silo does not manage to act fast enough to free Starscream from the Autobots before they take a sample for the scientists back on Cybertron, because Megatron had sent Lugnut to waylay her while he and Blitzwing accosted Starscream in the sky.
