//Kup........//
There is silence from Sell Swords side for quite while. This is caused by Sell Sword recognizing Kup's name from his old mercing days, and he was a good merc at that.
//I suppose this isn't the best time to say I was a fan of yours?//
Which isn't entirely false. He's a fan of anybody that lived through the profession to be come something else.

You can practically hear the facepalm.

The general band crackles to life with a hearty laugh!
//So, how'd ye Autobuggahs like me little present, hmm? Don't s'pose it'd be too much trouble tae ask that it be refilled and returned t' me the next time we meet, eh?//
And then it falls silent again after another piratey laugh from Cannonball.

Snap.
Firebolt takes a moment to not hide behind Wedge (which is happening at this moment).

Thundercracker is no stranger to foul language, even the Earth variety. But to hear it coming from the vocalizer of a femme is beyond his experience.

// Would you have preferred the explosive device to have been real? // Perceptor chides, and his tone speaks volumes about his regretful agreement with Thundercracker's sentiments regarding certain choice bits of language being utilized.
// It would not be polite to return a gift once given, Cannonball. I am certain, however, that an exchange in keeping with the spirit in which you left such a generously selected offering can be arranged for some point in the future. And I will be certain to exercise the same care with your plating as you did with Holi's when I select the appropriate structural placement for a reciprocal "gift." I would not wish to deprive you of the enjoyment of that experience. I am certain that Hook will be just as forthcoming with assistance for you in such a case as he was in the matter of your disguise, which should, no doubt, be of great comfort to you, // Perceptor observes in his most civil and polite of tones.
// As for the... "entertaining" circumstances, Skyfire, I find that I am unfortunately unable to tender any explanation which you would currently lend any credence to. All I am able to offer is the truth, which will no doubt pale in poor comparison when set beside the far more colorful tale that will have been woven for you. I am sorry, // he adds with quiet regret. Perhaps a Skyfire from a later time, a time after his long sleep in the ice, would have been able to note the genuine sorrow there. Perhaps this one may as well. Perhaps not.

Cannonball...cannot respond, as he's lost to fits of uproarious laughter.
However, he does share this over the broadband.

Shortround's voice picks up at the sound of a femme!
//Oooo, a femme. You don't turn into a boat, do you?//

Oh wow, Autobots degrading into earth cussing. That wasn't what worried Skystrike however. It was the fact that Skyfire just heard everything else on the General. How could they even hope to keep their competent neutral technicians around with this going on?
//Cannonball? Perhaps you should withhold anymore details about your adventure until you get back here.// Hopefully that'll give some of the higher ups time to make up another lie to cover their sorry afts. She didn't exactly expect them to do anything else.
On the bright side, Starscream at least had a reason to be blamed on this time.
//And Shortround? Femmes cut out your fuel tanks in your sleep. There's nothing to be enthusiastic about them.// Skystrike added as an afterthought.

That's it. Firebolt's first rant surprised him, but this is just...
//Why you little ground-grubbing harlot-bot! I DARE you to try it! If you can catch me, that is!//
