While Cliffjumper watched and felt increasingly awkward - and a little angry at that, as well - the paradronians all responded in kind to Mirage's greeting, and this was probably a thing he "should" know, but hopefully the excuse they had would be good enough.
"High priest, welcome. A fine morning to set off, isn't it?" the ambassador smiled and turned slightly so she faced Cliffjumper, giving him the same greeting and causing the minibot to take half a step back as his field flexed fitfully.
"It should be a few easy jumps," she said, mercifully turning back to Mirage even if there was faint, if sympathetic, amusement glittering in her optics.
Cliffjumper wasn't sure whether he was relieved she hadn't expected anything else, and why that was, but if she thought him shy... Well, that wasn't what he was, but he'd gladly take that over any suspicion to their ruse.
