 The duel color iris of the femme's organic looking optics shone a little brighter whenever the strange mech talked, though her attention was pulled away when she looked over to her adopted brother that had followed her out. Peeping sweetly at him and pawing at his face, before playfully scrunching herself into her Matre's claws, hiding. He couldn't help but watch all the sparkling, the ones still hiding under the blankets. giving him that same confused look that he got from Starscream sometimes, it was clear they were not used to others being around.
turning to face Starscream at his words, Jazz's head cocked slowly to the side, but he nodded, to be honest, it was allot that Starscream was even doing this. Jazz didn't have an expectation for Starscream to help him. though he had to admit... the idea of being even with Starscream, kinda made him fell... disappointed. "Sounds good" he replied, though his tone wasn't all that enthusiastic.
his optics dropping back down to look at the Sparkling. "Once Spring comes and they get bigger, M'sure its ganna be easier to take care of em, hum?"

 The organic sparkling chirped when his sister abandoned him, huddling up further in the blankets as he looked at the strange mech with wide, bright orange organic optics. He and the larger, blue mechling were not at all sure about this strange white mech in their home and were not quite brave enough to venture from the safety of the nest.
"...hopefully," Starscream muttered. He could hardly wait until they were fully on meat, frankly. He was doing much better with Jazz's help, but there was still a sickly grey tinge to the edges of his wings and his terribly dulled talons. Hunting without the additional taxing on his systems of having to purge half of his energon for them would do the seeker a world of good, and he might finally be fully healthy again.

Jazz fell into a lingering silence, passing the moments by watching the tiny new mechling. enjoying the way everything seemed to be so new to them, even movement, sight.
trying to shift a little, getting himself comfortable, and turning his gaze back up to the seeker."ya should think bout movin' out of the mountains. might be easier."

Starscream scowled. "And where would I go?" he snapped. "There is negligible shelter in the grasslands, and it's difficult to move in the forest!" As much as he hated being so near to Twincast, the mountains were very good shelter. The only problem was when the sparklings grew - it was going to get crowded very fast.

Jazz lifted a corner of his beak, knowing he should probably not be butting in like this... then again its not like he's been minding his own business much anyway.
"There's a solution somewhere bro. sure it ain't to hard to find ya a better shelter then up here."shrugging a little "heck, I saw this huge tree not to long ago. was thinkin' maybe ya can build a tree house in it. be high enough for ya to fly, and it'll be warmer then the mountains. course-" he started, gesturing toward the small Femme huddling into the seeker's talons
"She don't seem to have wings though..." knows that might be a bit of a problem. "though M'sure there's ways around that easy enough" knows that something can be built to keep the little ones inside, and it wouldn't be to hard to build some kind of steps, or ramp.

The crimson glow of Starscream's optics darkened as he growled in response, "Why should you care?!" He tightened his claws around the femme sparkling protectively. "How do I know you aren't plotting something just like he did?!" It slipped out before he could stop himself. He didn't want to reveal just how much what Twincast did affected him even so long after it happened, but it was hard - with four constant reminders pawing at him and squeaking for care and food all day and night, he couldn't simply force himself to forget about it as he normally would have.

Jazz opened his beak to reply to the first statement, but he was forced quiet by the second.
Optical frames clicking a few times, watching Starscream in a stunned silence, taken aback, but only for a moment, before he shifted where he lay.
"well, fer starters I sure as slag hope I ain't like Twincast in any resemblance," he started, shrugging a shoulder lightly "we've been helpin' each other out fer a while, I ain't given ya any indication that M'tryin' to hurt ya... I hope"

"I can't be sure about that," Starscream hissed. "I can't be sure about anything anymore after what he did..." Had Starscream not been so distrustful even before, he might not have had so much trouble recuperating from the incident with Twincast, but Twincast's deception just further cemented the mindset that no one was trustworthy, everyone would take advantage of him if he let them.

Jazz remained silent for a stretch of time after Starscream spoke, quietly, calmly watching the seeker, being careful not to stare, not wanting to seem intimidating or rude, it was clear the seeker was still not very close to recovering from this dramatic and unexpected turn in his life.
after a moment, Jazz just nodded slowly, looking down at his own talons, flexing them slowly to ease the stiffness out of them, and pretending to focus most of his attention onto that."alright" he spoke, glancing back up at the seeker. "I can respect that"

Starscream's wings slowly eased back down to a comfortable position on his back as most of the tension left them - not all of it, by any means, but enough that it was no longer painful. He lowered his gaze back down to the sparkling in his talons and, before he could stop himself or think otherwise of it, he leaned his head down slightly to very carefully untangle a lump of the femme sparkling's golden locks with the very tip of his sharp beak.

The little Femme peeped when she felt her Matre's beak moving to sort out the tangle on her head. she didn't hold still, instead she tilted her head up, her big brightening eyes blinking up at the large mech she lay against. completely unafraid. comfortable, and soothed, by a mech others would be intimidated or annoyed with. Jazz lowered his claws back onto the dry, warmed ground. trying to find something tto discuss that might be a little less awkward, turning to Starscream, but instantly forgetting what he was going to say, his head cocking to the side slightly, witnessing something rather... adorable. "whats her name?" he asked after a moment. smiling slightly at the innocent little peeping from the femme up to her Matre.

"...name?" Starscream repeated after an awkward pause. Not once had he thought about naming the sparklings even though, in the back of his processor, he knew it was necessary. He called them by releasing a series of whistles unique to each sparkling, so names were unnecessary at the time - at least, until Jazz pointed that out.
Frowning, Starscream looked down at the femme, at a loss. "I...don't know."

Unable to stop the rapid click of his optic frames in surprise. Jazz watched Starscream for a moment longer, glancing for a moment down at the sparkling in his claws, his surprise passing, and with the opportunity given, his processor automatically started wondering what names would fit well with the sparkling. He caught himself though, that of course was not his decision, they were not his sparkling. “No names? They need names though don’t they?”

Starscream frowned further. "I just...call them," he muttered. "I...haven't thought about naming them." Primus - what could he name them? What sort of procedures did one go through to name a sparkling - especially five of them!
