"Guess not," he replies to Dead End. "Shoulda guessed by the car mode. The Stunticons in my reality never came to Earth." They also don't combine, but then, nobody does where he's from. Except Squawkbox. Nobody knows what's up with that.
He peers at Injector again, straightening up. "Beyond the norm's one way to put it. This organic shell stuff gives me the creeps....and why're you wearing a fish on your head?"

"Just sayin' I could..." Wildrider said sulkily. Wildrider also has no idea who this Runamuck character is. However, the thing that's got his attention is the strange female robot. Everyone else making some noise. However, Pee-Dee is observing silently, and that's starting to irritate Wildrider. He glares at the Junkion, not even sure what it is he's looking at.

"Yes, you can," Dead End told Injector. "Consider it a statement of defiant aesthetics."
A perverse urge got into Dead End; he'd blame Wildrider for it, since he always seem to go along with this sort of thing when Wildrider was along.
// Perhaps this beautiful creature needs a ride somewhere. Why don't you ask him? // he radioed Wildrider.

Someone is going to have to sit this mech down and have a talk about some of the vernacular that they picked up from humans, this Eye-Fire can see.
Eye-Fire now notices Pee-Dee, whom he hasn't seen before and assumes she's another Decepticon due to her lack of symbols showing otherwise and that the others haven't had a bad reaction to her. This is probably going to cost him dearly.
"And who are you miss?" He asks, turning towards. His tone is respectful and he doesn't look as if he's using 'miss' as a sarcastic cudgel, but this may have to do with him not having a face.

"And then so I shall." Injector is very willling to accept compliments. Very.
"I am not, as you put it, 'wearing a fish on my head'." He crosses his arms. "What you see is my beauteous form. I cannot see why you would be disturbed by the organic form, but I cannot understand why you would remain at such an impractical size."
"Defiant aesthetics? Yes, I think that is a fitting term, perhaps. But, is not all beauty fundamentally beyond the norm?"

Pee-Dee catches Wildrider's glare and shifts her weight slightly, readying herself to dodge to the side of an oncoming attack. Then the gun speaks up.
She does like it when they call her 'miss'. Even better when it's 'officer'. Thus, the smile she gives Eye-fire keeps her sawblade teeth nice and covered up. "I'm Pee-Dee. I'm just doing a little bit of meet-and-greet with these fellows. And you are?"

Runamuck shakes his head at Injector's statements about organics. "You didn't get your world killed by a freak experimenting with organic shells." Just the thought of Thunderwing still makes his oil run cold. "So you're sayin' your head IS a fish? What kinda disguise is that?"

"A rather fishy disguise, I would say," Dead End said blandly. "Runamuck, we have several troops with partially organic transforms: Blackarachnia, Chameleon, and some others I'm not sure what they are."
Dead End looked at Pee-Dee. "Do you know a Screwdriver? She's a female Junkion I brushed fenders with once."

This new Junkion was friendly, which is more than could be said for some of the other Decepticons.
"Me? My names Eye-Fire. I'm just a simple scout " He says. No need to make her think he's some psychotic loner who takes pleasure in killing things from a distance, which isn't entirely true anyway. He's not a loner.
He also shifts his unblinking gaze to Wildrider, zooming his optic in and out as he scans this other Stunticon. He really won't be happy if someone decides to run over the only nice person in the area.

"Well, we have had much more time to develop organic-shell technology than you. I'd imagine early prototypes likely went wrong back in my home, too, though I have no knowledge of such things. I am not a scientist nor a historian." There is almost a hint of pride in his voice, a subtle, slight implication that his people are superior.
"Back in my home dimension, our alternate forms do not serve as disguises; at least, mine does not. Indeed, from what I know both base components of my gorgeous beast configuration are vastly oversized compared to the creatures I scanned. There were no locals..." His mind flashed back to those ugly hairy creatures the Maximals seemed so fond of protecting. "No significant locals to be disguised from."
And, oh, this is an interesting tidbit. Others potentially from his era, if not his reality? How interesting. "Blackarachnia, you say? I will need to speak to her at some point, to ascertain whether she is the one I know or not." It would be good to have another from his period, though if he had a choice it would not have been the arachnid he picked.
OOC: Sorry it took me so long to get this out. I've been wayswamped with work.

Wildrider snorts at Injector. "But why would you do it? Organics just smell and make a mess everywhere, and try and ruin your interior!" What kind of crackpot dimension has he showed up in?

"A simple scout, eh? I'll keep that in mind."
So when it comes time to deal with whoever blew out the back of her head, she knows exactly who to beat to death with their own torn-off limb. Always handy.
Simple scouts were always anything but.
The smile she turns on Dead End hints at sharp teeth. "Why, yes... I do know a lost little girl by that name. Do you know where she is to be found?"

Runamuck blinks at Dead End. "There's MORE of 'em? At least tell me they're not full-sized." One Pretender-caused apocalypse is more than enough for anyone. He could just step on the little ones if he had to.
Just wait until he gets to meet his commanding officer.
He nods at Wildrider's question. "Must make repairs a pain in the aft, too. You need a tech and a, whatchamacallit, vet."

"Alas, no. She comes and goes like the wind. A most peculiar creature; she doesn't 'talk TV' quite like you do. She speaks in archaic allegory," Dead End replied to Pee-Dee. "But if she differs from the Screwdriver you know as much as you differ from the Autobots we know...."
Dead End pauses significantly, visor flickering with interest as he regarded Pee-Dee. "So what is your lost little girl like, and how did you lose her?"
Dead End turned his head to look at Runamuck, his visor flickering with hidden amusement. "You haven't met Commander Sky-byte, have you?"

"Their aim also tends to be flawed and their vision quality bad. Those two facts alone would make me question anyones want to be organic." Eye-Fire says adding to Wildriders criticism.
