Starscream was not the only one enjoying the furry little breed-bombs as a delicacy; he himself had taken to hunting them down.

Originally it was due to the fact that they reminded him of those hateful little mice, true. But an accident had led to the discovery that the little meat that existed on them happened to be delicious, and he hadn't looked back since. Even better than pigeons, this.

Slagar followed one through a line of bushes, throwing dagger in one hand and his bolas in the other--and popped out at the very edge of the open spot by the pond.

Hm. He'd seen that one before.

Ignoring the Tribble for the moment, Slagar put away the weaponry-turned-utensils and slowly trotted over to Starscream.

"You're a fair hand at that, eh?" he called out, curious.

Starscream nearly jumped out of his skin when Slagar seemed to just appear from the bushes. The other man was outlandishly dressed and... rather well-armed.

On the other hand, he seemed somewhat familiar. Starscream was sure he'd seen the guy around on the comms.

"No, actually," he admitted. And it was true - he'd screwed up the first tribble, ruining the fur, though he was doing slightly better at the second. "I'm not a particularly good cook, I'm afraid."

So the high-and-mighty Starscream could still be scared. Wasn't that a fascinating thing to remember? Wouldn't that be something for everyone to see? Oh, he'd have to think about that some time.

This was the time for sweet little lies, though--prying and testing and being so gracious to others. And so he would be, for the moment. Even if the Decepticon hadn't seen him before, he likely would have recognized the distinctive, raspy voice.

The one that was currently attempting to work its powers on the ex-robot.

"Why don't you let me show you how it's done?" he offered innocently, the twisted and frozen smile on his face hidden behind the silk mask. "Call it... a favor from a friend."

I am having extreme brainfail for when they last talked. orz. loltraitorlol July 7 2009, 04:16:42 UTC
Starscream pauses. Normally, he'd snap and say that he could do it himself.

But somewhere in the back of his mind, Waspinator's memories buzz and accept that he's not always the best at what he does with a sigh; and Shockwave's tell him that it is only logical to occasionally accept help.

That, and he tries not to be a complete jerk in public.

"... fine," he says. "Show me."

not sure if they have in person, but slagar's made public posts a few times furcoatsarebad July 7 2009, 04:40:12 UTC
Slagar doesn't bother to hide the amused huf that escapes him at the other's agreement to the suggestion, and slips a long, thin knife--different from the one he'd had a few moments ago--out of a hidden pocket in his cloak. A good leader was always prepared to last through a siege, after all.

Being that there are plenty of extra Tribbles, getting a fresh one isn't a problem; he picks a particularly hefty-looking one out and examines it. After a few seconds spent smoothing the fur on one side down out into a part and exposing a line of skin, the knife flashes.

Before anything can really register, the ex-vermin has made a set of three nearly surgical incisions, and neatly unrolls the skin from the poor Tribble's body. As he cleans out and slices it into a grillable section of meat, it becomes clear that he's done this before.

...A lotAfter all of a minute and a half, the Tribble is de-furred, opened, scooped, shaped, and casually tossed onto Starscream's grill. Slagar seems less than concerned about the state of his hands, given ( ... )

Starscream admires Slagar's skill - this is clear in his expression. Though he still finds the fluids a little disgusting, he's not bothered by the act itself - killing to eat is one thing that actually makes sense to him.

"I know that," he says, trying not to snap. And he goes to do so, turning it over.

"Why the mask?" he asks, suddenly. It's probably a dangerous question, but Starscream has a bad habit of asking those.
