Mirage wasn't the only one perking up; the whole of the paradronian entourage did as well, with the envoy's sparkmate standing up as the rest did, to bow. Only the envoy herself remained seated, but she did as Mirage had done, bowing to the mech while remaining in her seat.

"High Priest," she said, dipping her helm in another bow before she straightened up again, "it's a boon and an honour, to have met you, and it isn't surprising that the orders would be... scarce this late in such a terrible and encompassing war."

Shaking her helm, she gave Mirage another lingering look of restrained eagerness before she turned back to Optimus and dipped her helm again.

"If the First of your Primacy would be willing to head your diplomatic mission to Paradron, Prime, there are no words that would express our deepest delight and honour to be graced with such a personage and opportunity."
