It was actually the flying that first caught Rumble's attention. That Lyra femme had said the porter gave out powers, but he hadn't bothered asking about it. Little busy trying to find Soundwave and all.

His first response, of course, was to march right up and demand to know exactly who this human was. Then he remembered Soundwave telling him to keep a low profile until a Decepticon came to get him. The cassette ducked his head a bit, watching the woman through blue strands of hair until he caught sight of the symbol on her back.

Oh! This must be Slipstream! He'd never seen a Decepticon femme before, much less heard that designation, but Soundwave had told her to come here. She must be all right.

"Hey!" he called, running over to her. The fact that he was so much shorter was hardly anything new; he craned his head back and grinned up. "You're Slipstream, right?"

[femmescream]

Yes, there he was. And he was a.. child organic. Hm. Well, that was different. But the smile was infectious, and she returned it faintly.

"And you're Rumble. Let's get to the base, shall we?" ...Slag. Either they'd have to walk or take a disgusting taxi.

"Would you rather fly or ride in one of those unreliable human contraptions?" No, sirree, Slipstream did not like cars. At all.

Rumble nodded, already looking forward to being at the base. The less of these humans he had to be around, the better. Especially since Soundwave didn't want him doing anything to them. Yet.

After taking one look at the cars, Rumble turned back to Slipstream with a look of disgust. "I'm not ridin' in one'a those things. Look like Autobots. Ugh."

His look then turns expectant as he stands in front of her, waiting to be picked up or something. It's not like he can fly on his own.

She just looked at him for a long moment, then turned around and knelt with her back to him.

"Hop on."

Oh slag what the heck was she doing? Carrying him on her back? Good thing Starscream was in the hospital. She'd never hear the end of it.
