I enjoyed this greatly! Loved the characterization and interaction, and of course, I'm always happy to see Long Haul get airtime. Even if he's being put upon. Because, well, being put upon is what Long Haul's about, anyway.
[Skywarp, I just found Ravage unconscious in a corridor.] [I didn't do it,] Skywarp responded immediately.
I'm quite entertained that this is his automatic reaction.
Thundercracker looked around sharply to see Long Haul had snuck up behind them in vehicle mode.
Now, this gave me pause. Stealthy and Long Haul are two words I wouldn't usually use in the same sentence, unless there's a "not" in there somewhere as well. And he's in dump truck mode? Stealth dump truck!
"Fixed?" came the voice of an unseen Constructicon. Thundercracker turned around and saw Mixmaster coming out of the cleanroom, wiping his hands on a sterilizing pad. "That'll be what the alert-2 is about, right? Right?"
I had a moment of absurdity as my mind made awkward suggestions as to how Mixmaster might choose to misinterpret fixing the cat.

BTW, nicely manic Mixmaster there. :)
