While everyone was contemplating on their new alt forms for the odyssey as they treked back to base, Sklog ran in his regular humanoid form  and quickly made the decision that he'd stay the way he was unless push came to shove from the others. The Predacon was already just starting to recover from his identity crisis so he didn't want to add to the problem by further changing his chassis, plus there was the small fact of the matter that he wasn't sure if any EA-rk-ling vehicles had techno-organic parts. 

As Sklog came out of his train of thought he was surprised that he wasn't closer to base already. Back before the Predacon was a Predacon, his Dinobot processor took a while to get to conclusions which meant it was a great way to pass the time. Now Sklog's normal train of thought would only last a mile or so.
