Omega Supreme tries to shuffle the cage away from Shockwave, suddenly possessive and suspicious. He demands, "What's it to you?"
Well, he's in trouble with his Constructicon again. Fantastic. Could this day get worse?
Yes, yes, it could.

Hook takes a measured drink from the energon cube the strange Mixmaster had provided. "Why is anyone kept in a cave, Shockwave? Use that vaunted logic of yours."

He shrugs, seemingly not noticing Omega's shift in mood. "I abhor waste, and not allowing what is assuredly a brilliant mind to create unfettered is a form of waste. You obviously have a reason for protecting him from your Prime, and that also sparks my curiosity."
Perhaps not less acerbic then. Good to see, that is.
"That you are a prisoner is plain to see. That Omega wishes to protect you is also plain, even as he keeps you caged. It is the reason for such a dynamic that I do not understand, as whatever is between Omega Supreme and the Constructicons of your reality and it's parallel does not seem to carry over into my own. And then there is Long Haul to consider, who comes from a time before choices were made. It is a puzzle."

Omega Supreme bristles, "Look, what is between my caged Constructicon and I is really none of your business, okay?"
He's not really liking just how interested Shockwave is being right now. It's not like Shockwave is some family councilor who just has Hook and Omega Supreme's best interests at heart.
No, universe. Family councilor Shockwave is just too weird to be real.

Hook taps the side of his cube. "Why don't you ask the Hook you know about it, Shockwave?"
This Shockwave is certainly not close enough to this Hook for him to explain the dynamic to the cyclops.

So, no Dr. Shockwave Show?
He had not expected any explanations from them, but voicing curiosities can be such an excellent way of provoking reactions, which are often more telling than hours of dry explanation. And, ah, such a touchy subject! Almost as touchy as discussing Long Haul with his own Hook. Who is no more close to Shockwave then the caged one.
A pity, that.
"You are correct. It is not my business. But that does not stop my being curious now, does it?" He nods at the pair, then turns to leave, giving his back to the Guardian and his pet.
OOC: Gone, unless stopped

Dr. Bombshell might have words about the Dr. Shockwave show, as might Dr. Venom.
Luckily, Drs. Bombshell and Venom can be distracted with pudding.
Omega Supreme growls, "Curiosity killed the cassette." He then looks to Hook and asks softly, "Is he bothering you? We can leave."

Hook holds the cube Mixmaster gave him closer to his chest. "They all bother me."
It's too painful to look at these familiar faces and know the mechs behind them are strangers.

Omega Supreme sounds tired, "Right, then."
He replaces the cage within himself and transforms.
There's a little spot out in the black desert where the nights are cool and the days are blinding. It will have to do.

Hook huddles close to the center of the cage and takes a surreptitious sip of the offered energon. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to-"
Didn't mean to what? He's not sure. He's not even sure why he's apologizing. But Omega is unhappy, and it must be his fault.

"You can't change who you are, and Sigma knows that I've tried," Omega Supreme replies tiredly over his internal speakers. Tried to change himself? tried to change Hook? More the latter. "I just think that, someday, we'll both be too tired to do anything other than fall in the middle."
He looks forward to it, truth be told.
The flight is short, at the speeds that Omega Supreme travels, and in a trice, he is transformed. He gingerly places the cage on the dark desert floor and looks up at the sky, same in blackness but for the twinkle of the stars.
"Good night, Hook."

"Good night, Omega."
Hook hunches over the glowing cube of liquid, and slowly the light fades into darkness.
