Title: Repetition
Pairing: Vague pre-war Skyfire/Starscream
Rating:G
Warnings: None
So many times before had he found himself in this state. Flat on his back, the faint gritty sensation of rock and sand under him and nothing above but the endless sky. To his left, the twin suns slowly set. To his right was the monitoring equipment, packed up and ready to go home.
Starscream could never quite understand why Skyfire insisted on watching one last sunset before they left, yet he always silently complied with his friends request. The first sun had already passed below the horizon, the second one steadily making its way down. He could only hear the faint hum of his own systems and the soft motions of the air that passed over and around his audios.
A faint crunch. The sound of metal on rock and Skyfire came into his field of view, standing there as the fading light of the second sun diminished into a soft glow through the atmosphere.
Normally Starscream would have got up by now and made it obvious it was time to leave, but this one time he decided to let his friend make that decision.
