Hellbender bowed his head briefly toward Starscream. "Mah apologies sir. No disrespect was intended; rather the opposite."
So Starscream was as nearly as touchy about Megatron as Lugnut, only in the opposite direction. Hellbender noted that, and hoped it never occurred to some trouble-making sociopath to put the two of them in the same room for a long time. With a propaganda video of Megatron playing on the TV.
He gaze shifts to Assault. "It got the point across. Horrible Examples are useful to point at and say 'Don't be him.'"
"Hello, Skystrike."

“... Yes sir,” Skystrike rumbles after a quiet, startled moment, immediately wary although her voice and stance are carefully neutral. Now why would Starscream of all people go through the trouble of remembering her by name? Last time she checked, she was hardly high enough up the chain of command to be terribly notable and it was rather unsettling that he hadn’t mistaken her for some other seeker.
She rumbles a greeting to the rest of the group in the meantime, trying not to think about it too much. Better make her stay here as brief as politely possible.

Oh, don't be so smug, Waspinator. Assault sees it, and he's already thinking of ways to put the insect in his place.
But then his attention diverts to Starscream. While he does not chuckle, he is all too amused with his reaction, though also impressed that he does not fly into a murderous fit. Some may see it as a sign of weakness that he does not make Hellbender pay for the insult, but Assault was never fond of the more brutal commanders and it is good to see that Starscream is not one of them. Despite his...Slightly monstrous appearance.
Ah, Hellbender has a point there, and as much as Assault would love to dispute it, he will not argue with such a reasonable thing. It would just make him look like a fool who does not know what he's talking about, and we can't have that! "Yes, quite right."

Starscream doesn't know why people keep seeming so shocked that he knows their names. There's barely a platoon of Decepticons on Ship. He wouldn't be much of an officer if he didn't take the time to learn names. Besides, Skystrike is the only Seeker with Berkut wings, just like Fleetwind is the only one who's pastel yellow. They're hard to forget.
Screamer gradually loosens his grip on the arms of his chair and goes back to his datapad as if he didn't almost attempt to murder someone.

Lord Starscream is definitely doing a better job on the name front than Waspinator although the bug’s issues were somewhat unique.
He Slurped down the rest of his drink, right that’s the caffeine sorted, where’s the sugar? Wasps do like sugar right?

Skystrike isn't really sure what happened between Starscream, the others and the maimed arm rests but she's pretty sure she's out of here. She takes what she needs from the dispenser and quietly turns to head out, wings snapped back and tense.
That was a really weird Starscream.

Assault looks down and into his cube, still held in his hands, but having been long empty by now. He ponders if he should refill it, stay so he can listen and speak with the Decepticons here, but only Starscream is worth the effort. The others either bore or irritate him.
Yes, he thinks he'll leave. His mind made up, he rises to his feet, giving Starscream a genuine salute. "If you do not mind, sir, I must be off. I have other matters to attend to before the end of the day."

OOC: Skipping Hellbender due to time out.

Starscream nods at Skystrike as she takes her leave, then nods again and waves a hand dismissing Assault. Waspinator and Hellbender both seem content to keep their silence for the moment, and that suits Screamer just fine.
He picks his datapad back up and begins running through some tactical simulations. Say . . . Fleetwind, Assault, Duskwing, and Skystrike attacking a fortified Autobot position. What does the computer make of that?
OOC: Looks like this is heading for a wrap?

Waspinator also pulls out his own datapad and flips up the holodisplay
"Hellbender and Assault want to play Battleships?" Lets see how your mighty intelect fares against dumb luck Mr Blue Seeker.

"What's Battleships?" Hellbender asks. Regrettably, he's never been to Earth and doesn't know Earth games.
He cocks his head for a moment, as if checking some internal file, and says abruptly, "Nope, got to get going. Sorry, next planet shuttle leaves in a few minutes, and Ah need to be on it. Seriously."
The blue-black worm-former levers himself to his feet. "Been interesting. See y'all later."

Assault is about to leave when Waspinator proposes a challenge to him! He turns to face the bug with an arched eyebrow, optics drawn to the game....And then he just gives him a quick mocking laugh before he leaves, head shaking.
