"You don't have to swap partners for it to be an orgy," Soundwave mused. "Do you? Ravage and I would sometimes play with third and/or fourth parties, but not always. Sometimes you just do whatever you do. Nobody's expected to do anything with anyone they don't want to...not sexually." He looks a bit confused. "I'm with Ravage now, she's with me, we won't be sharing with anyone else tonight."

He thinks for a moment. "Does orgy really mean everyone with everyone all the time? Who would do that? Sometimes we'd all link up at the wrist port and share a thought or an experience, and I think that's quasi-sexual, but nothing below the midline or involving the spark was ever expected or even suggested to everyone."

"Soundwave and I have never spark-merged with anyone else," Ravage says, her ears pricked with alarm.
