Newt can't help but yelp when the massive form suddenly appears and talks at him--almost jamming a tiny screwdriver into his hand in the process. He was so wrapped up in what he was doing that he didn't even hear the... Is that a giant crab?

This planet seriously needs to stop throwing him curve balls.

He puts his hands up as he's examined, trying to look unthreatening (which isn't hard, but he does have spots of energon all over him so it's a valid concern) and swallows thickly to try and come up with something to say.

"Uh, sorry. Did you want it? Cause you can have it. Like, I'd really like you to have it if it means you won't eat me."

Wow. That's the best you could do? What an idiot.
