“Alright,” he sighed. “Get comfortable, it's likely to be a long story.” He settled himself against a wall, the jets piling themselves around him. “What did you want to know?”
“How did you meet Starscream?” Fireflight asked, half-propped against Skyfire's leg.
Skyfire chuckled. “We met at the Science Academy. It was more than just a school,” he told them, smiling at their surprised expressions. “It was a place of learning. It was the central focus for the premier scientists across Cybertron. Chemistry, engineering, astrophysics, xenobiology... everything. My field was anthropology, but I dabbled in just about everything, from xenobiology to aerospace engineering.” He smiled. “Came in handy plenty of times; I was able to gather data on my jaunts out into unknown space for the other, planet-bound scientists.
“Starscream was different back then.” Skyfire shook his head. “And he was exactly the same. Passionate, arrogant, and always trying to show everyone else up. He took even the slightest criticism personally, and never let anything go. He was also a brilliant scientist, which was probably the only thing that kept him in the Academy.”
“Unpopular?” Air Raid interjected with a wry grin.
“Like you wouldn't believe. But then, I wasn't the Administration's favorite mech, either.” Skyfire grinned. “You may not have noticed, but I can be a tad stubborn at times.” The Aerialbots laughed at the understatement.
“I got away with it longer, because my alt mode and skill set meant I could spend extended periods out on my own, without needing the aid of any of the specialists. It was just easier for the Administration to let me wander off by myself then have to deal with me. I was perfectly happy with the arrangement, and it went on for a long time – until a particularly embarrassing episode involving one of the members of the Science Council. He didn't appreciate being proved wrong, and especially not in public. In a bout of spite, he got my assignment changed, and I found myself paired with the Academy's least popular scientist. We hated each other on sight...”

Starscream glowered up at his new 'partner.' “So. You're the high and mighty Skyfire,” he sneered. “Funny.”
Scowling back down at Starscream, Skyfire made a quiet rumble deep in his chest. “What exactly do you find funny about this?”
“I just expect the hero who took on the dreaded star pirates of the Blot Nebula to be...” Starscream looked Skyfire up and down critically. “Well, not a slag-hauler with delusions of grandeur.”
“Unfortunately, you are exactly what I was expected,” Skyfire retorted. “All mouth, no thrusters.”
“You're just like all the rest of them,” Starscream sneered. “Just try to keep up, alright?”
“Big words from someone who's going to be ferried for most of the trip.” He was beginning to understand why even the easy-going lab supervisor who'd handed him his new assignment had called Starscream 'difficult to work with.' For once, it appears that the rumors are true.
“I was referring to mentally.” Starscream snapped his fingers against Skyfire's armor. “Thanks for proving my point. Actually, I have an idea. How about you haul the cargo, and I'll do the thinking.” He smirked. “Best use of resources all around.”
