[McCrane has managed to collect a large number of basic building supplies, most of which he has amassed on and in the back of his alt mode. The video is from within his cab, driving, the occasional bounce showing some of the steel beams he has piled on top.]

With fuel no longer being a problem for myself or my companions, we have the time for other pursuits.

[Having the time to not slowly die was an enjoyable experience, he'd found.]

Although I will be assisting my team in building our headquarters, I wanted to offer my services to anyone else who may need a machine familiar with construction. I can provide architectural schematics, advice, and supplies.

I can also lift...just about anything.

[He is a crane. It's what he can do.]

[Locked to Prime!Scream, though probably not securely.]

Your list was...exhaustive. Nevertheless, I think you might be interested in these:

[The camera changes to show the pieces of a number of specific tools that Starscream was looking for sitting on McCrane's front seat. They aren't full tools, but with a little help they could be jury-rigged to be.]

[Sitting next to the tool-bits is a pile of datapads, collected specifically for...]

[Locked to Ani!Scream, though probably not securely.]

[The camera opens on the pile of datapads in his front cab-seat, sitting next to a number of pieces of cybertronian-looking tools.]

Hopefully one of these will do.

[Because McCrane can't actually tell what is on them.]

Did you try the power button? [Sigh, Earth bots.]

If you had a problem with my description why didn't you ask me for more details? [Grumble]

I tried every button. [Including some that were switches, and some that were just glorified ports. That...had been awkward.]

...

[Okay, you might have gotten him on that one, though. He was afraid he'd miss it, so it was better to simply collect them. All.]

These were gathered as I moved around the junkyard. I should have asked, but I was busy at the time. Do none of these look right?

[A robot that can't even turn on a datapad. Congratulations Mccrane, you've sunk lower in his opinion then the autobots from his world.]

Nevermind. I'll take them all. [It's worth it if one of them is what he is looking for.]

[Some of them might just be out of power, you know. And then, wouldn't you feel stupid when you couldn't turn them on too?]

Can you meet me?

[He sends coordinates for his route, not really able to detour until he's dropped of the load.]

[Starscream never feels stupid. And he never gives anyone the benefit of the doubt either.]

Fine.

[Have a harrier jet taking off in the direction of the coords.]

[Have a crane below, just trundling along.]

What do you need this data pad for?

[It doesn't take long for the jet to find him, landing and transforming with easy grace.]

It's...for a friend of mine.

[McCrane watches the other transform, and slows to a stop. He can't go to robot-mode right now with everything he's carrying, but he can loose an arm to open up his door for Starscream to see the datapads.]

I thought you didn't need friends.
