Finally.
Sword drawn, Ichigo leapt out from behind the rock he'd been using as cover and took off down the hill, making a beeline for the prisoner.

He really could have cared less about rescuing some damned Organic. But a good fight was a good fight, and Dinobot was a warrior before anything else. "Dinobot, maximize!" Charging down the hill, the Predacon did not pause to give the recently changed activation code for his transformation, and changed forms mid-stride, grabbing for his sword as soon as his spine had finished becoming it.

Ichigo couldn't afford to be distracted right now, but it was definitely something he noticed with surprise. He had seen the dinosaur around the ship, and when he'd asked about it, he'd been told the ornery raptor was part of the crew. It was odd, but the Convoy was full of weird things. But Ichigo hadn't known the raptor could transform.
Well, if Dinobot was stronger this way, Ichigo wasn't going to complain about it. "No kidding," he said, running at the nearest satyr. "I was about ready to jump these guys by myself if I had to hold back any longer!"

Leaping the last few feet towards the enemy, he felt a lifting in his Spark. This was what he was built for! Well, that and quoting his own works, which he did, raising his sword. "And when the blast of war blows in our sensors, then imitate the action of the fighter; stiffen the gears, summon up the oil! The game's afoot: follow your spark, and upon this charge cry 'Now for ruin, now for wrath and a red dawn!'"

When the satyr slashed at him, Ichigo blocked the strike with his blade. It was a contest of strength for a moment as he pushed back with the sword.
But that blue guy in the armor had said something strange, something Ichigo had almost recognized. He hadn't thought about it in forever, to be honest, and the history plays had never really been his thing, but... "That sounded -- kinda like Avon," the pilot gritted out as he doubled his efforts, intending to shove the satyr's hand back, then get a slice at the creature's body. "I didn't know dinosaurs read that stuff."

Dinobot spun on his heels, twisting his body away to avoid the attack. In the same motion, he lashed out with one of his legs, trying to sweep the goat-things hooves out from under it.
At the mention of Avon, he sent a creepy, toothed smile/snarl in Ichigo's direction. "Hrah! That imbecilic impostor! As if he actually wrote those masterpieces! He stole them and then had the audacity to change them!"

It didn't get up right away. Instead, lightning-fast, it kicked out with its hooves, lashing out at Dinobot's torso in return.

People tended to be surprised when Ichigo admitted he liked Avon. Growing up in Melior, a huge center of art and culture, he couldn't really avoid being exposed to it. Honestly, the poetry itself wasn't really his thing -- he liked the plots more. But he could respect a guy who could both pen a fucking awesome story and do it in style.

"Thank you. Though I preferred them the original way- the way that I wrote them. Still, it is nice to know that my work is appreciated, even if it was plagiarized."

A sphere of darkness congealed in its clawed hand, which it proceeded to throw towards Dinobot. If the transformer could not dodge, it would drain a portion of the robot's energy, essentially halving Dinobot's energon supply.
Reply
That done, he was free to stare at Dinobot. "Wait," he said, obviously disbelieving. "There must be something in my ears, because I thought I just heard you say that you wrote Avon's plays."
Reply
The transformer's attention was a little taken up by dodging that attack, thank you very much. He snarled, not that he wouldn't have even had he been in a good mood. "Obviously if I wrote them they are my plays, simpleton!"

Another satyr, however, saw the way the battle was going and decided to step in. Dinobot would see another one step up behind Ichigo and lash out with black-coated claws.
Reply
"Give me a break," he shot back at Dinobot. "Even if you weren't some kind of shapeshifting dinosaur thing, those plays are four hundred years old! There's no way you could have written them!"
He hadn't noticed the satyr behind him.
Reply
Dinobot would have argued more, but his attention was caught by the satyr coming up behind. Annoyed as he might be at Ichigo right now, he was still part of the crew, and battle was Battle. "Get down!" Not pausing, he glared directly past Ichigo, and aimed. He was hoping that the distance was close enough that he would avoid actually hitting the red-haired idiot and hit the satyr only, but he fired his eye lasers anyway.
