The work down Mirage's already fairly intricate spinal plating took some time; time enough for Cliffjumper's displeasure to draw notice, even with the level of devotion going into the work. Sparring a glance in Cliffjumper's direction, Track's optics narrowed at the rising tension in the red frame. If the minibot interrupted again, the noble didn't know what he might be driven to do.
But he certainly couldn't interrupt his work to do something preemptive. It was against protocol for him to even comm the little glitch.
Well. He couldn't. But he could comm Mirage - even if he was of the opinion that his friend was far too forgiving of the Minibot's lapse in judgement.
A few kliks later, Mirage's optics flickered dimly online, causing a noticeable halt in the low grunting now that a distraction had apparently presented itself. He glanced around in a daze, before settling on Cliffjumper's hunched frame. Warbling song not breaking for a moment, he opened a commline in a mild breech of protocol.
