[Cybertronians do not dream.
This alone should have been enough to wake either of them up.
As it was Jetfire dreamt of finishing the flight to catch up with Sunstorm, the battle seemingly lasting an eternity, as dreams perhaps do, but also confirming his theory of a binary-agent reaction.
And then...
He'd said something, the words forgotten as everything exploded and then its cold and dark again. Ice creeping up, holding him down and still but this time, he's not alone. That simple thought, realization, yanked him straight out of recharge and it took him several moments to understand that he's looking down at Starscream's helm.
"I got out."
That hadn't been said. Nothing had. He'd... he's not even sure what that was (lacking a concept for dreaming, and English wasn't coming to him at the moment, but whatever that was, it hadn't happened.
Despite this, he couldn't shake the dread, and raising one hand to lay on Starscream's arm just to see if he was there? Was harder than it should have been.]

Stop trying to push me around. You can't properly argue mentally so you're resorting to this? Just because you can't keep up with me intellectually and refuse to admit when you're wrong doesn't mean you can do this.
[So not fair, you big, giant, metal mass. Starscream just glared like an annoyed cat.]
Isn't this an example of you being wrong? What you are doing right now?!
no subject
[Jetfire made sure the look he met Starscream's glare with was just flat.]
An argument that's based in me either agreeing with you to placate you, or saying one of two things that will annoy you isn't an honest argument.
[He shifted, slightly guiltily, when Starscream snapped at him, shrugged and then just settled back, resting his hands along Starscream's vents, but not really touching.]
Probably, yes. It's not the best way of handling the situation, but I was more looking for an actual argument or discussion where I was wrong... Not how I chose to react to a given situation, since I'm quite sure you'd think each and every time we fought I was "wrong".
no subject
And that's what all of this is about. How you have to be right. All the time. Constantly.
[He huffs in Jetfire's direction. Because it's so true.]
no subject
[That? Have the flattest, driest single word ever out of Jetfire. Well, that might be a lie, he's probably used that tone before.]
That explains it. I suppose, Starscream...
[Jetfire will just lean up enough so that he's murmuring against Starscream's audial, lips moving against the metal.]
That you don't understand the meaning of "hypocricy"?
[With that, he settles down enough to rest his chin on one of Starscream's shoulders, one hand snaked between them and locked around Starscream's werists to help hold his arms still, and his other hand just trailing up and down a vent lazily.
He might, or might not, also have turned off his audio reception.]
no subject
I am not a hypocrite and you are being annoying. Which you do all the time. Like now.
Right now you're being annoying, but of course I will be wrong because how ever could you be annoying. That's simply not possible.
[He tried to move around but, Jetfire made that difficult. At least his sarcasm came out nice and clear.]
no subject
No, if you think I'm annoying, I might well be. But then we're even because you are certainly quite annoying at times too.
[He leaned forward a bit, a tiny smile hovering about his lips.]
Happy now? You aren't wrong.
no subject
[He's never really happy. Because he's Starscream. And that's just how it is.
And he was being cuddled.]
The way you worded it totally does not count.
no subject
And how should I have worded it then?
[Pause, and something in the situation just reminds him...]
... And would you be more amenable at this time to share those other language files?
