Soundwave, the communication's officer, stoic and silent, strutted down the hallway of the nemesis with Starscream, the air commander's voice filled the space filled with Complaints and rants about things around him.

—"Vehicons, so incompetent. Slow when ordered, does whatever I say even get into their scrap helm?"

Soundwave listened to every bit of it. His built in recorder not missing a beat, recording every line, ever word and sentence that comes out Starscream's pretty intake. Secretly. As he always does with people, record their lines and often use it as communication.

But with Starscream this was different.

He turned his helm towards Starscream long, his visor, or monitor face day the Air commander a bit too longer than anyone would. He endured every bit of what Starscream says.

His recording plays a snippet of Knockout's voice, "Precisely." As his response to Starscream.
