[Just roll with 'wiggling' Rodimus it sounds better than 'agitating your face'.]

If that's a challenge to have enough patience for the both of us, I accept~ [Don't make him regret it!] Oh I can take more than a few, but I'm too fast for that. [Wait. NO. This battle metaphor with token sexual innuendo just imploded on him. Can he take that back?]

[Okay paying attention to the battle is a much better idea, so he spies that lag after Rodimus' attacks. Or he thinks he does...]

No brig then, alright. How about something else? Follow my lead, will ya? And be quick about it.

[Drift dashes in toward the next closest opponent, his strikes sweeping low and leaving the higher targets to his captain, (captain??).]

[rodders]

( He can't help but laugh at that - grin spreading even wider across his face. Rodimus doesn't think he's laughed, actually laughed since Overlord. Some of the tension leaves him, and while he can still feel the numbers etched into his palm, they don't feel as heavy with Drift here. )

Aren't I captain? I thought I'm supposed to be the one giving the orders here. ( He does what he's told though, and when Drift attacks he sees what Drift must have - the thing doesn't register Rodimus' next volley of shots in time to move. He lets out a whoop of glee when he sees that they've hit, only for it to be replaced by another curse when he notices they don't do anything. ) Oh come on, isn't getting a hit in enough?

( They're going to have to do repeat this, he guesses, and falls back only slightly. )

Again?

[Drift hasn't heard laughter since then either, unless you count the gusty, slightly hysterical kind that isn't funny at all. It feels good, another tick in the good column for today!]

'Course you are! [EER] I mean. I think so? [It's confusing to be honest. Megatron is also captain and that's....Capital Weird.]

Yeah but I'm glad you take suggestions though! [The whoop in his throat dies on his vocalizer though when the thing shrugs off the shot.] Well hey, that's still progress!

[Drift gives a sharp nod, all the response Rodimus needs, before darting in to the harry their target again. He's definitely earnest about trying to hit the alien, but his focus is now more on trying to make the thing work as fragging hard as possible to avoid him. Your aim better be good, Rodimus!]

[rodders]

You thin-- ( He's about to put a hold on the entire operation until this subject is cleared up or put off until another day because this is important, obviously. ) Later, okay?

( They'll talk about this once they're done, and catch Drift up and maybe talk about the thing they're absolutely not talking about.

Good? His aim is great, and when he fires another round, one of the shots hits the thing in the chest squarely in chest. Their attacker drops to the ground instantly, Rodimus letting out a triumphant yell. )

Take that! One down, ( Taking a look around him at the others - he shrugs. ) every other one left to go.

( He can do this, no problem. Now that they've figured out how. )

[alwaysadrift]

Yeah. That's a good idea. [And Drift wouldn't blame him, but now is definitely not the time seeing as how the swordmech isn't even sure he ever understands it.]

Ha-HA! [That's a real WHOOP this time, because that's a real kill.] About damn time!

Hey I got this flow now, we can do this. [Drift sure is moving to cover Rodimus's back again as he tries to spy the next potential target.] You want to make the opening next? Or the killing blow again?
