Starscream, Soundwave, and Shockwave have been courting each other for several years now even though no one would expect them to be dating with Starscream's arrogance and cowardice personality though he is a strategic thinker but often undermined by arrogance and cowardice while Soundwave is incredibly intelligent, cunning, incredibly loyal, steadfast, not talkative, quiet, concise, pragmatic, cool-headed and focused and Shockwave is incredibly intelligent, cunning, incredibly loyal, steadfast, not talkative, quiet, concise, pragmatic, cool-headed and focused they all somehow make their relationship work which surprises a lot of bots but Megatron doesn't really care as long as they do what he tells them to do then he doesn't really have any problems with them being in a relationship though Starscream does have a tendence to give both Soundwave and Shockwave the silent treatment that really doesn't go anywhere with Starscream easily breaking under both Soundwave and Shockwave's dominance and right now Soundwave and Shockwave are in their shard lab working on a few things while waiting for Starscream to get back from a meeting with Megatron (you represent as Starscream)
