He twitched at the unexpected contact, but at the familiar kneading touch, Orion finally began to relax.
Just a hint though, and not nearly far enough to be truly comfortable. This really didn't seem to be his 'thing'.
Megatron's words didn't exactly help, and he was opening his mouth to say something waspish before he realized it. Jaw closing with an audible click, he had time to reflect silently that at least Megatron hadn't tried to make relaxing an 'order' - could he even try that? But it still made him realize he was relaxing and had to fight the urge to tense up all over again.
The true order was something he wanted to do, at least. Orion raised his helm almost immediately, successfully without uttering a word; instead settling for lifting a single optic ridge in impetuous, silent query.
