Don’t give him those optics. Those optics should be outlawed. They’re brutal torture. “Oh, all right.” He let out a long-suffering sigh and pulled Skywarp closer again.
And kissed his helm.
He should have known better than to try to disengage before Sky had completed his traditional reunion cling-cuddles.
If it makes Starscream feel better, Skywarp won’t cuddle much longer. Just long enough to memorize the pattern of his spark pulses and the way his EM field feels again, with his helm back to his chest plating and venting steadier than it has been since his arrival.
And once he finishes that task, he releases him and backs up a few steps. He still can’t sit still, of course.
“You didn’t have to get me anything,” he pipes up but still excited to get something. He’s a sucker for things. Though he doesn’t want Star to think he comes back for that reason, so adding in a quiet voice, “just letting me snuggle is good enough, y’know?”
He had been terribly lonely without his trinemate(s). Don’t get used to this.
