OOC: No complaints here at breaking up the thread.
There's always the chance the Autobots have someone monitoring the radio, supposes Swerve. Holi can do that, can't he? Can his counterpart in this world, if he has one? But Swerve also tries to be optimistic as much as he can, and more, if he doesn't exercise even a little good faith toward these Autobots, he can't expect any in return. Small steps, small measures of trust at first, something to show he's willing to try at the very least.
In all honesty, it's the thought of truly good Autobots that most sways him in the matter. He wants to believe they are as they say; he wants his hopes to be not in vain for once.
"Let's go, then, please," he urges, reminding himself he has to trust that no-one will harm Emirate Xaaron and that he'll be listening anyway. The words have a faint ring of "let's get this over with".

Emirate Xaaron should be happy that he has a choice at all, but the choices to which he is accustomed are usually more like, 'Do you want your optics torn out and rewired into your fingers so that you can watch your hands melted in this cauldron or do you just want to be drawn and quartered and left like that until it rains?' One of these options is bad, and one fo them is worse. He needs ot figure out which one is just merely bad.
The Arcee he knows is something of a blackmailer, and the Mirage he knows is a hunter who could easily also be an assassin. Emirate Xaaron doesn't think either of those options are very good. Thus, he consults someone who has a better clue than he does. His pause in answering is likely noticeable, but his answer is, "Arcee, if that is acceptable."
In Emirate Xaaron's book, female seems to mean 'will kill you dead', but she can't turn invisible. That's something.

Kup looks faintly surprised. He'd have picked Mirage, of course. It's the only way to be sure where the spy is, after all. He shrugs, then just dips his head in a nod. "Yeah, that's acceptable."
He turns towards the others. "Mirage and I will go in with Swerve to see Rodimus. Arcee, you wait with Xaaron either in the lounge or outside." He glances at Emirate Xaaron, then back. "Whichever's more comfortable. Got it? Good. Let's transform and head back. Xaaron? You're in the back."
Assuming everyone agrees, that's just what they do.
OOC: End of thread, unless someone has something else. Xaaron will start a thread for Swerve to meet with him and Rodimus, and either Xaaron-3 or Arcee can start a thread for them hanging around outside/in the lounge and chitchatting.
