"Well, no, that's true but---" The overseer floundered visibly mentally as well as verbally before snapping up straight and hurrying to catch up alongside the Prime, gesturing first at the mine and then in a 'calming' motion; hands up and palms out.
"The mine's not for the untrained! While it does of course follow standard safety protocols and procedures, with the amount of drones in use I can't really recommend someone who isn't used to mining procedures and layout to go inside, Prime." Somehow, the overseer managed to sound respectful instead of panicked and demanding.
Megatron snorted, and while Optimus could, and probably would tell the overseer off for overstepping his bounds - if Ironhide didn't get there first - he slid up alongside the Prime's other side, barely casting the overseer... his former overseen, a glance.
"While it was a while ago I've been in a mine, I still know the procedures, the 150 most usual layouts depending on rock and energon stability and the safety protocols... Even with the changes brought on by the drones. We should be all right." There was no mistaking the sneer in Megatron's voice, or his dismissive, arrogant posture.
