[After Cyclonus and Megatron, Tailgate finds it difficult to be immediately scared of scary-looking people. He does find the mask a little intimidating though. That and the organic goo is kind of gross, he hopes the newcomer plans on washing that off.]

Um, I don't know who you are?

[Tailgate says cautiously, squinting up at Tarn's face. Maybe he should know who this person is, but he doesn't ring any bells.]

I've never met a Decepticon before. Well, that's not true, I've met a couple, but they were never interested in talking.

[Scary or not, Tailgate is determined to be polite, so he offers up one of his energon cubes.]

Here! You can have this if you want. They're down in the cargo bay if you want more, but we're kind of short at the moment.
