Megatron shifted with Optimus' shrug, lightening his weight and following the slight shift upwards just momentarily before settling down again, for the moment unaware of any... new directions the Prime's post-battle high might be going.

"Oh, and what might they be?" Matching Optimus' smirk, he leaned down slightly himself, responding in a similar fashion, hardly thinking about it.
