Along with Airazor, Nightscream (nicknamed "Bat Aunt Chama") was hired by the Axalon Trading Company to work as an office lady (complete with skirt and hair bow). Rattrap became enamored with how cute both the office ladies were, only to be shocked when Rhinox informed him that the Axalon Trading Company had no women on the payroll. The Gender Gap Hoping to get to the bottom of the whole "male or female" thing, Rattrap and Rhinox decided to follow Airazor and Nightscream to see which bathroom they use. They were further confused when they found that their building had no female bathrooms at all. The Bathroom Gap

Nightscream also had a side job as a movie director, his latest work being Transformers: Convobat Amazon Showdown in which he himself starred as Convobat. He hired most of his coworkers as well as employees of Tera-Kura Co. to play other roles, but was greatly upset that they were more interested in ad-libbing funny lines than actually following the script. Things got worse when the living transtector he'd borrowed from Mindwipe to play Convobat's body went out of control, but they were able to calm it and complete the movie, which was enough of a success that he began working on a sequel.

To his disappointment, however, Ginrai had lost the body the next day. LG-EX Magna Convoy

Notes
[edit]- As an extension of Nightscream's gay characterization in Japan's Beast Machines dub, the Legends comic depicts Nightscream as a [[wikipedia:{{#if:|:}}otokonoko|{{#if:||otokonoko}}]] whom the male characters constantly mistake for female. Nightscream's odd nickname, "Bat Aunt Chama" (コウモリのおばちゃま Kōmori no Oba Chama), is a reference to Japanese film critic Kazuko Komori (小森和子 Komori Kazuko), whose nickname was Komori no Oba Chama (小森のおばちゃま).
