"Yeah, maybe you should have," Cliffjumper muttered, voice nearly waspish, his lingering annoyance with having to find out something he'd rather not have bleeding through and overcoming his common sense.
Then he huffed and kicked his legs again, squinting at Mirage and distinctly relieved he hadn't been spotted. He'd hardly have fitted in at any temple or whatever, and while things hadn't always been easy, they'd been... adequate.
"Even if we'd rather do that sorta work? What's the fraggin' use anyway, of bein' able to see a stupid lightshow? Since it's kinda obvious you wouldn't need someone else to tell ya the rite worked." Even trhat oblique reference to Mirage's... overload... had Cliffjumper's optics brightening and he looked away, static softening his grumpy tone.
