Cliffjumper opened his mouth, but his vocal processors ran on empty and he snapped it closed again.
While he was still upset, and even more so by this response, his processor contained more than two bits of processing power.
"Well, I didn't call him a traitor or spy or anythin'!" Cliffjumper muttered as he stared, stubbornly and narrowly, at the ground by the Prime's feet, his field pulled in tight.
Jazz, for his part, had almost made a noise at Optimus' question, and then again when Cliffjumper answered.
::Not as bad as it could be, but even without an explicit accusation it ain't hard to see how it went down considering 'Jumper's abrasive personality. They were very loud.:: Jazz knew he shouldn't smirk at that, and he didn't, but his tone was briefly amused.
Besides the seriousness of yet another accusation, it had, at least, not had the chance to have a huge fallout.
Except on a personal level for at least one of the two involved - he knew Mirage didn't have anything against Cliffjumper but nothing more than that... And it was probably "hadn't had" anything against him, unless Cliffjumper pulled himself up by his bearings and made amends.
