Megatron's apparent submission - helm bowed back, throat exposed and vulnerable and completely at his mercy - sent a charge through his frame the likes of which he had not expected. It was delicious, and Orion was going to enjoy exploiting the Highlord's frame to his full satisfaction-

So of course, the bite came as a complete surprise.

Orion snarled at the surge of pain around the sensitive interface cable, his entire frame jerking with the shock of the input. The wounded cable whipped back, zipping back into the port that housed it with a speed that surprised even him. His remaining cables writhed instinctively, jabbing down into their matching ports as though it would protect them from a similar fate.

It also served to pass along his jolt of pain, something Orion did not intend but certainly did not object to.

He hissed against Megatron's audial, teeth snapping dangerously close to those throat cables as hands flexed tight against the larger mech's hips.

"Don't do that again."
