Love this!

And this? 'and there were a startlingly high number of those in the Ark crew, thanks to Skids hacking efforts'

Explains sooo much for just an off-side sentence!

And Skids is fun when he's overprotective!

But... if Cliffjumper is accusing all and hither, why isn't attacking Prowl as well? (Even if that would be suicidal to the nth degree...)

Oh, if he did attack Prowl like that!

"Traitor! You... Hey! What are you doing?!"

"Getting you to Ratchet for a processor scan. And away from the fuming, deadly saboteur off to the side."

Skids has like, almost no official characterization. That made it both easier and harder for me to figure out how he worked into the Rings'verse. As for Jumper, everyone knows that some Praxian's were glitched and thus Unconnected to the Windbond. Jumper knows it isn't Prowl's fault, but Mirage and the other Lost Seekerkin aren't glitched (notice how CJ stopped harassing Red after his big meltdown?) Being glitched basically gives you a free pass from Cliffjumpery agression.

Skids is a lot of fun, and since he's got nearly sero canon characterization I can do a lot with his motivations and drives and background. More is, of course, always on the way.

I'll hold you to that. I'd love to see how you interpet the pairing. ^_^

Never thought I'd see a follow-up to Katsuko's story. ^^ Much enjoyed, as always.

Pfft! Whachu talkin' about? This was totally my plan from the beginning! >.>

Was Skids the one that Cliffjumper almost recognized, but couldn't quite narrow in on?

Pin-pon! You got it right! XD

This explains a lot.
Skids is a really sneaky bastard. Once everything comes out, I can practically see Jazz and his ops begging on their knees to be taught by the great master spy Skids.

I bet there's a giant dent somewhere in one of the walls of Skids' room or in his desk, courtesy of whenever Cliffjumper managed to get himself into trouble again and Skids couldn't help himself than to use the old, well loved HMD/HMW-routine. ^.~

Haha! Spymaster!Skids Sigma Talent is a little something I've called a "notice-me-not" field. He can literally make people forget he exists. It's kinda epic.

Hee, exactly. It doesn't help that Optimus tends to jump in front of the gun (aka Megatron) and one of Skids mission parameters is to keep the rightful Prime from getting himself killed. Poor Skids has a lot on his plate. XP

Awww... personally, my favourite line/scene was when Skid was close to tearing his hair out or whatever the equivalent is:

(Dear Primus, but Skids was going to have to have a long talk with his niece about enabling when he got home. A mech with Cliffjumper’s temperament should not have access to an arsenal that big.) = WIN :D

[sanjuno]

*snickers* Poor Skids. Poor, poor Skids. XP
