Scourge did not reply. Blackarachnia did not reply. This leaves Octavian with one more option.
//Lord Starscream, do you receive?//

//It is hard to tell my correct position without my onboard systems, but not impossible. I juxtaposed it to the vicinity of [coordinates].//
//There is also a bit of a snatch I ran into.//
//I have found myself trapped in a rotting, organic carcass. Not only that, but I find myself with new memories, of a human life. Thankfully it did not overwhelm my mind, which is even vastly superior when it is contained in such a frail vessel. Now, I made an educated guess and assumed that I must not be the only one this happened too, and I believe I am correct. But I have not yet actually found anyone who is in the same condition as I am now.//

//You are correct. There are others of us who have been similarly affected. I've already tasked the remaining members of our Intelligence Division to locating our missing comrades . . . and any afflicted Autobots.//
So he's ordered Rook and Crankcase to work on it, in other words. Onslaught doesn't need to know just how pathetic their numbers are right this second. That information may come later, if Starscream deems it wise.

//Most excellent. Which brings me to my next point. This identity has granted me some remarkable resources. It would appear that I am what the humans refer to as a 'super villain'.//
The pause he inserts now implies that he utilized the newly learned skill of 'eye rolling'.
//I will use this to my advantage. I can 'shift' into another identity that is an employee of a security firm, specializing in goons. I will use the assets of both identities to find both our own missing comrades and the Autobots. And of course, a way to reverse this condition because if I find myself stuck in this pathetic, rotting, useless, weak CARCASS for much longer, THERE WILL BE VICIOUS AND BLOODY MURDER.//

//Your initiative pleases me, Onslaught. I'll tell Intel to coordinate their efforts with you. You will of course pass on any information you gain.//
Starscream is nonplussed by Onslaught's outburst. He knows Bonecrusher.

//Naturally. Of course, my communication is limited. Contacting you required some creativity and ingenuity on my part, but it is not something I can use whenever I please. I will meet with Intel in person and devise a means of communication that will be more reliable and convenient.//
Because right now he's playing "Onslaught, phone hooome!", complete with something that was made from a box of scraps (but not in a cave).
//In fact, I already have three suspected Autobots. I am uploading it to you now. One needs closer monitoring to be certain but fits the profile, one I suspect to be the Autobots' resident hothead who tangled with Bonecrusher, and the third is their Junkion. I am a full 100% certain of this.//

//Competent work. See that it continues.// High praise from Starscream.
//Monitor the Autobots, strike targets of opportunity where you can, but don't get overextend yourself. //

//Understood, sir. Even in this despicable form, I will not fail the Decepticons.//
