*Auspex nods, unsurprised* It would only reinforce that she had a problem, and that someone, namely you, knew it. Apparently, the others had at least some idea? Or perhaps Skywarp's words were merely ignorant?
*her optics dim as he details his effort to keep her alive, and at least somewhat sane* Her weakness, then, was fortunate for both of you, at that time. There are times for such things, for a lack of guardedness, though they are few for Decepticons, on the whole. Sometimes, they must be forcibly given, if they will not be taken. I thank Primus that it was you who found her, and that you cared enough to give her a continuing refuge.
*she gives him a discerning look in return, for his final comment* Inasmuch as she can, I think. You are safety, to her, and she values that. Her memory of you helped to calm her enough to listen to me. I'm not sure she would react... but I will keep that guarded, at your request. And again, I am struck by your sense of loyalty.
