Humph. [That's as eloquent as Cliffjumper is in response to that, twisting his lips and crossing his arms over his chest. He can take a compliment perfectly fine, but sometimes Starscream just totally go overboard!
Or maybe they're right not just making him feel extra squirmy because it's Starscream and the accompanying bright tingle in his circuits.]
No I... uh. Got it. [He ducks his helm, optics brightening and loosening his arms to rub the back of his helm and shouldn't this be easier now?]
Ya don't have to stand there ya know. [Angling a glance at Starscream and realising the scientist is basically hovering in the door, he jerks his chin to the side - more into the room, even if he's got no idea what they're going to do now that they've gotten this far.
But leaving Starscream in the doorway just seems silly, even if he's flustered himself.]
