Populous. Cliffjumper could only mouth along with that word in pure exasperated consternation. Of course Mirage would use a word like that. He wondered if the mech would end up sounding even more snooty than usual, the longer they stayed here.
The most awful thing was, he'd just realised he usually didn't mind (any longer, anyway) the way Mirage spoke, even when it was annoying. It was just... a part of the (former) noble.
Rolling his optics, Cliffjumper snorted.
"Pretty sure you could impress people even covered in m---" breaking off as he registered what Mirage had just said, what he'd just done, Cliffjumper barely managed to pull his surprised expression into a scowl, but the blush ran away from him.
He doesn't mean anything but exactly what he's saying. Telling himself that very sternly, Cliffjumper huffed and looked away. He opened his mouth and then closed it again, because the first thing that had come to mind was something he'd had thrown in his faceplates before, and not in a positive way.
A layer of shine isn't going to help an ugly personality.
