[Broadcasting perched on an outcropping over a lava flow, seemingly sounding unbothered by the misstep into a sideways universe--first rule of Decepticon Club is never let em know you're scared.]

So, this looks like Cybertron--actually, a lot like the one I just came from. But from my recon, it's either a time, a space, or a time and space displacement.

Little bee, are you here? [elaborating] I'm looking for an Autobot named Bumblebee. About this high--[indicates short, midchest height]--gold, kinda stout. I'll also accept Metalhawk, Wheeljack - Soundwave? How about Prowl, with my luck he's here. [Bueller?]

--For the rest of you, my name is Starscream. Maybe you've heard of me. [and he's smirking a little self-indulgently at the thought. No matter how dangerous or inconvenient it might be to be preknown in a brave new world, it's nice to be important.]

I'm here to help.

Oh, won't you please give me a hint, magnanimous... Lord... Starscream?

[this was playing dirty at the highest possible level. His voicebox practically purred that title--taking a wild stab in the dark.] It's a very big place, and I'm completely new.

... I could get used to that, but be warned: flattery will only endear you to me. [So in other words: don't stop. Ever.]

Oh, I'm around here somewhere. If you hurry, you might even catch me before I leave the temple~.

[Actually, he's going nowhere.]

[ex_dishonestly997]

That is not a hint. [but he doesn't sound angry, or anything.] Give me a floor?

[my_own_trope]

What floor would you spend your time on?

[ex_dishonestly997]

[immediately] The top floor. With a big, big window, or a balcony, or both.

We could totally start a log if you wanted

[my_own_trope]

Well then.
