Well, that was...surprisingly painless. As strong as she comes on, Knock Out doesn't quite mind this fleshling as much as some of the others he's met. She's still irritating, to be sure, but at least he doesn't feel like he needs to murder her in order to escape the conversation.

Knock Out sharpens at Orion's name, though. That catches his attention. Orion had run into some of the natives, had he? Well, it's not like he's been out and about much lately. That must have been before Starscream found him.

"Orion, you say?" Knock Out sounds unimpressed, idle. He doesn't give any indication he recognizes the name. "Well, thanks for the tip, fleshie. I'll be sure to keep an optic out for him."
