Cliffjumper wasn't sure whether his annoyed - nervous - assent was a very quiet verbal noise, or only over the comm. He couldn't tell. Maybe it was both. If it was the latter, it was at least quiet enough no one ought to have heard, especially as the path given to them now was wide enough there were several meters on each side of them to the crowd.
Cliffjumper stepped in and then stopped, the energon just barely wetting the underside of his feet and his wheels. Which made him very aware of the fact that he (and Mirage) both sported Earth altmodes.
Nothing bad with that, but they stood out badly - though Thundercracker did as well.
Glancing up, Cliffjumper bit the inside of his cheek not to smirk at the Seeker's stiff back. He could easily imagine the uncomfortable, stiff look on Thundercracker's face... which wouldn't be that different from his usual expression, just dialled up---
And then Mirage knelt, a rite humming already over his lips, and Cliffjumper frowned.
The flash of motes turned into glittering lightning in Cliffjumper's senses, and he could see... frowning, he wasn't much aware of tilting his head and raising one hand, and as if in answer a couple of the motes slowly drew together and fell down into the palm of the minibot's open hand.
Something which, of course, wouldn't normally have happened, even to charged energon which had been pumped full enough with an extra charge to discharge it as flashily as Mirage had induced it to.
