"I do not understand why you needed my help with this. Insects are not difficult," Skyfire says objectively as he gently scoops a mantis of some kind into a sample cup, appraising it before tucking it into his bag.

"Save for the flying ones," He adds, preparing another cup and sneaking up on a large wasp, "But you can fly too, so..."

So he doesn't know. He feels like he's not really here to catch bugs, relaxing as it is.

"What did you need them for, anyways?"

Shockwave shakes his head, grabbing hold of a beetle.

"It does not matter if they are difficult or not, having a second person increases efficiency. It is just logical, I will get more insects this way."

He bottles the bug, before turning his attention to the shuttle. Sure he didn't need Skyfire around to do this, but what he said wasn't a lie. More people more bugs. More distractions for him, although he's not about to admit that.

"Flying hardly matters, and simply because my flight has improved does not mean I was created for it."

He's a bit more jet-like in flight. That's all. Good enough to catch bugs, not what he really uses it for.

"It is simply for an experiment. It is not important."

"Suit yourself," Skyfire sighs. He no longer has the same amount of energy to argue and fuss with Shockwave's banter these days.He mostly feels drained. Used up. It had started with AM and just gotten worse as time went on. More and more his mind is occupied with vengeance.

He hops into the air to net a colorful moth.

"Look at this one," He says, watching it flutter frantically in the container, "He's quite beautiful."

He hovers over to his companion and offers the moth to him which has since calmed itself and is flexing it's wings against the side of the jar.

"There are few others I could ask for assistance," Skyfire's response warrants a shrug from the Decepticon. "I am continuing something I was working on in the City."

And that's really as much as Skyfire needs to know. Despite what happened to the shuttle he doubts he would approve of any ideas to murder an entire group of humans. That and he still isn't sure if that's what he'll do.

All he's decided on his continuing his Insecticon project for now. Further planning will, as always, take time.

Carefully he takes the jar, looking over the moth.

"I suppose it is beautiful. It is certainly unlike any I have seen before."

Hm.

He holds the jar back out towards Skyfire.

"Why don't you keep this one."
