"So...you'd say I'm in service to our Lord and Lady." Clobber smiles. "Well, I was raised up to be a Decepticon. But while the Decepticons weren't always really great at living up to our ideals, Lord Soundwave is. And Lady Ravage...she's just the sweetest thing. She says everyone is important to someone who's important to you if you look hard enough. At least that's what I think she means. And I did take the oath all over again when I joined the revolution. The revolution inside of the revolution."

She considers the subject of food. "The person you really want to talk to is Miss Laserbeak," she says. "Have you seen the big black bird robots? There's three of them. Laserbeak's red, Buzzsaw's yellow and Garboil's cobalt blue. I mean they're black, but they have coloured panels on their wings. Laserbeak is always eating human food and making herself sick. Especially if it tastes sweet to her, or it's really shiny. Me, mostly I like to be companionable. It's nice to share fuel with your friends. So it's kinda sad when everything at the Embassy parties has to all be on separate tables. Silverwing, she's a seekerlet, she's kinda crazy but she's super cute? She and Lotor had the same birthday, when we reckoned it out. But they couldn't eat each other's birthday sweets."
