"Huh. Interesting! So yours are as ugly on the inside as they are on the outside?" Considering what Wheeljack and Bulkhead looks like, that is saying a lot about what Knock Out thinks of them. Then he notices the crash on TV, wincing, but despite that he can't help but have a nice big grin on his pearly white face. "Oho! Nasty."

"You should always look out for your own comfort where you can, my dear Lyzack. Even small comforts can make hard times more bearable. Too much stress is bad for you, yes?" Like the stress of frequently dealing with uneducated thugs!
Clio waves a hand. "Anyway, perhaps you would prefer a career in the sciences, rather than the armed forces. There may be no formal education available at the moment, but as a university graduate myself, I can certainly provide training..."
Patra's reaction to the crash is rather similar to Knock Out's: a wince and a slight grin, not that it's particularly obvious through the mirrored face plate of her helmet. "Ooh, that's got to hurt."

Skystrike is unimpressed by the crash, optics cycling in a bemused blink. She turns her attention fully to Clio and Lyzack’s conversation, turning her head just barely as she listens.

Fracture looks from Knock Out to the screen. Then back to Knock Out. Then back to the screen. Finally, she says, "Eh, they were always too big for me to be interested."
She bestows a smile on Patra before turning her attention back to the race.

Lyzack's optics cycle a blink, all four of them. Then, daintily, she stands up and pushes her chair neatly under the table.
Then she places her hands flat on the table before her and leans over the table, her wings arching up. Lyzack says flatly, though still quietly, "When one is assigned a task, it is duplicitous to try to sway that one from the assigned task." She raises one of her hands to her Destron symbol on her chest. "This does not mean Decepticon. This means Destron."
And if she makes an enemy here? Well, her brother declared blood feud on Holi and Clipper. Can't get much worse than that!

Knock Out comes from a reality where he, a car, is as tall as Starscream, a jet. Where all of them sizeshift in insane ways. Under different circumstances, he would question how big they could possibly be, being cars, but instead he just makes an 'O' face and nods, before giving Fracture the pistol gesture. "Right. Well, this was terribly interesting and the crash was fun, but I have to plan my own fun still. Bye now!" With a nonchalant wave he turns and walks back to the freed up console, claws quickly starting to tap away as he looks for a good spot for his next trip.

Clio slowly raises one of her brows as Lyzack makes her point, keeping her posture neutral as the jet looms over her, neither challenging nor shying away. Hm, aggressive posturing - even if it is rather reserved aggressive posturing. Perhaps this one will do just fine playing with the soldiers.
Giving a little shrug, Clio answers, "If that is how you feel then I shall not press it further. I apologize if my job offer offended you." Okay, so maybe she lets a hint of sarcasm sneak into her voice. It's hard to resist.
Mentally eavesdropping, Patra turns to look at Clio and points a finger at the side of her head, circling it around in the symbol for 'crazy'. Meeting her partner's gaze, Clio gives a terse shake of her head. No, not crazy. Just different.
Patra just shrugs and turns back to watching television. Giant robots. Who can figure them.

Skystrike inwardly arches her brows in amusement. Well, that was certainly the least skittish she has seen the seafoam jet behaving. Whether or not Lyzack could be a soldier would still be up to her performance in the field, but at least the jet had convictions.

Knock Out is too big for Fracture to be interested. Not that she'd kick him out of the berth if he climbed in, but she sure wouldn't be inviting him.
"Knock 'em dead," Fracture says, waving vaguely in Knock Out's direction. Her optics remain on the race, trying to figure out who would crash next.
Skippable.

"There is no offense," Lyzack states, and she straightens out. She is just not going to talk treachery when Skystrike is standing right there, looking like she is about to eat Lyzack, okay? Besides, she was sorted by the Sorting Hat into Slytherin, not Ravenclaw assigned into the Air Division. Lyzack takes that seriously! Doing something else on the side would imply a lack of seriousness.
Maybe she should go clean her room again.

"Hmmm. If I feel in the mood." He mutters almost absentmindedly, casually waving a hand at her. But then, an idea. The hand moves to his chin, clawtips lightly tapping it in thought before he turns to face Fracture again, giving her a confident, inviting smile. "You know, you should come with me sometime. Do some proper damage."
He does notice what's going on between Lyzack and Clio, and he simply can't resist it: He has to do the 'kitty has claws' gesture, though he abstains from saying 'Meeeow'.

Perhaps Lyzack should stop being such a delicious shade of green. Anyhow, there are worse treacheries than openly talking about a courier change.
Of course, that particular decision might not even be her’s to make, only her’s to suggest to Slugslinger. Knowing their commander, he was probably going to keep her around just to be sadistic.

"Have a pleasant day, then." Clio doesn't feel like moving and Patra seems to be enjoying herself, so she's just going to pull out a datapad and start reviewing a paper she's writing.
Really, she doesn't see changing divisions as treachery. They're still all Decepticons, after all, and it's not as if cross-division borrowing isn't common. They all tend to be called upon to shoot Autobots eventually. But perhaps things are different among Destrons.
She gives Knock Out a flat look over her datapad.

"To who?" Fracture asks, glancing at Knock Out.
Still skippable.

Lyzack is totally a Blue Jet!
That is the wonder of aqua: to be both blue and green at the same time.
Lyzack bows to Skystrike and then heads out.
Clio will never get a chance to ask Lyzack about women!
Until the next episode.
