Starscream looked over as Knockout was sitting on the ground, trying to plan his next move with Breakdown, he wasn't sure what he expected. Knockout was looking sad and depressed, it wasn't in his voice or movements,but in his ruby eyes. Breakdown tried to wiggle his partner out of it. Praising him more than normal, even letting Knockout be abusive. Still, the car mech just seemed lost in his darkness. Starscream knew those eyes, it was his eyes staring back at him. He had only scaped one line down his chest, he didn't expect this side-effect. He should have known better, he knew how he felt when Megatron did it. He had done it in front of everyone as well.

Starscream: is he always this sulky after losing paint?
Breakdown: he has never done this before…
Starscream: it's just paint, Knockout and nobody can even see it anyways

Knockout just waved him off as he hooked the wire into the gun. Starscream stared, nobody had even denied him and Knockout did it daily. He was so dam mad. Starscream just lost his tempter and shoved the car hadn't expected it, not being a flyer, he fell right off the ledge. Starscream stared at his hands. He hadn't wanted to kill Knockout, just make him stop being so smug. Breakdown ran to the edge to see if Knockout had landed like a cat like he usually did.

Knockout: you both should see your faces…its..priceless!
Breakdown: red..?
Starscream: how..?

Knockout was laughing behind them both. He poked Starscream in his wing, making the seeker jump and stumble. Breakdown turned and saw the big grin on Knockout's face.

Breakdown: how in the hell…
Knockout: I am a knock out after all,hmm?
Breakdown: you gave us both a spark attack!
Knockout: now now..Star..hands off my paint..you, your drooling
Breakdown: your so dam hot when you pull magician moves..

Knockout accepted Breakdown's high five as he walked back over to the wires. Starscream was extremely confused on how Knockout went from falling to his death to behind them both. He kept looking at the mech to the edge back to the mech.

Knockout: take a photo, star, it last longer

Starscream cursed and stalked off, fully sulking.
