[He's sitting on his 'chair' in the Hollow's empty throne-room...looking more scuffed than normal. From the small energon stains, the dust, and the smirk on his face...it might be obvious he just came from the Arena. It definitely looks as if he won.Soundwave and Ratchet both disappeared for three days: I have the evidence of their absence, right

He has never looked better.

Something painful, I presume?

[He trails off.]
Starscream clones, in your universe? ...to what purpose?
[Because Primus, he wants to know if suddenly there were going to be more showing up.]

Experiments. He likes to think that he was the only one I cloned, egotistical as he is. However his genetics are... different than most.

What did you get out of him?

Enough.

Do you want any claim on him?
Or can you tell me anything about this 'Skyfire' that professes to be his friend?

And Starscream isn't going anywhere, until then.
[The information is...unexpectedly useful. Incredibly so. Enough that he starts chuckling, darkly.]
So he wasn't kidding himself when he said 'friend.' I hadn't thought that Starscream had it in him.
Skyfire claims he will do 'anything' for a friend. It sounded like idealistic nonsense, but...also worth investigating. And if this jet has a processor behind those pretty blue optics, I'll have to be cautious. Especially if he's anything like you.

Hn, amusing. He is intelligent and a scientist, that hardly makes him anything like myself. And anything can be a problem.

Do come join me. I'll even give you some privacy.
[Not like Shockwave then...but that isn't surprising. If nothing else, 'Autobot' and 'Decepticon' were distinguishing enough.]
'Anything' right now included bringing me Autobot intel. I suppose I shouldn't be surprised that no one wants to speak of being experimented on. It would anger me.

Hmm, and he has that data? ... Yes that anger of yours. Still problematic. Personally I see nothing wrong about being experimented on.

[It is, really, what he wants. He's secretly worried about being taken in the night, or about anything worse being done to his Decepticons. Getting emotions and digestive systems was...bizarre.]
...
[Shockwave could be bizarre at times, too.]
...have you ever been experimented upon?
