Treadwing follows the robot, she might not know bit by bit all that was on the list, but she has shopped for Starlight long enough to know if someone tried to trick her... at least in most cases. The large bot inspacted everything carefully, and tried to appear more careful than she actually was anyway.
Meanwhile Sunflower was entertained and had no qualms in repliying to Billy´s question "Oh first we had to do an errand, I mean we work on development of weapons and defensive systems and as of late we sell those ourselves and so we travelled to deliver some energy shields and automated guard turrets to some far away planet, then we had to fight pirates which was a bit scary but Tready and Starlight managed to beat them but our ship was damaged so we were close by and dropeed for resupply repairs and maybe selling some neat devices to anyone interested around this parts and and... yes that is it!!!" She talked quite fast as in to resume their recent journey after all she had no one new to talk she they left the mentioned far away planet.

Billy's head was spinning (not literally) by the time Sunflower had reached the end of her schpiel. "Oy gevalt," the Kaion remarked, his long ears swivelling backwards. "That's a mouthful, kid! So you ladies are in the sellin' business, eh? Ya got a regular clientele?"
Meanwhile, the shop robot continued to input data into Treadwing's datapad, marking items off the list. "Let's see... I can get you everything exceeeept this part..."
He turned the datapad around and tapped on the name of the item on the list. It was for a a JDP-490 Power Adapter.
"This guy's been discontinued for years!" the shopbot explained. "It was made by a company called JDP back on Lumiare-5, but then a local embargo just killed it, and the company was literally blown off the map. We might be able to get one in off the used market, but that'll take a while. D'ya mind waiting? Or if you're in a hurry, you could try the second-hand stalls down at the marketplace," he suggested. "Otherwise, you'll hafta come up with a substitute, but it's not easy finding a regional adapter like this one."

Sunflower tried to control herself and pause after watching Billy´s reaction "ah well yeah, we produce, we test, we sell, it is a fun life... most of the time hehe! As for clients, well we worked a lot on autobot posts back in the days, but now private security is our means of earning credits, but once we sell our stuff most clients are secure and hardly ask for extras save for some upgrades I guess..."
At that time Treadwing took a few seconds to think "we can wait for a bio, how long do you think it may take? And I can look at those second-hand stalls to pass the time and be done with whatever comes faster, plus we may need some relaxatioon after the scrap of a trip we had heh" she smiled a bit "can you pack all the stuff you have marked there and send it to hangar bay 37 at the care of Starlight, please?" as she speaks a small compartiment on the tip of her large index finger open up with a small and precise cracne holding a card for payment.

"I take it you both are a one-of-a-kind outfit," Billy observed with a discerning nod. "There's a lotta business here for private security types if you're lookin' ta make a buck while you're visiting! Unfortunately the clients here are poor, so it's not likely they'll be able to afford anything high-end or custom-made. So does your ship have a manufacturing wing built in, or d'ya outsource assembly? Or do ya even deal in volume output?"
Meanwhile, the shopbot was rubbing its chin thoughtfully. "Wellll, it could be anything between a week to a month," he then admitted with a shrug. "There's no telling how long it'll take to find the exact part. But sure, lemme get your list all packed up, and I'll have it sent over to Bay 37 in an hour or so, how's that?"
As the shopbot spoke, he turned his ledger around for Treadwing to tap her card on the sensor and to sign on the bottom.

Sunflower leaned back thinking for a very short while "well we do have a small assembly line aboard the ship... well small for us cybertronians, but quite robust when it comes to producing smaller scale gadgets, like the time it takes to produce a pistol Treaddy can use we can produce 20 someone of your size can use... hope it makes sense, I can be a bit confusing when I process too much over something" her gesture makes it clear that she gets a bit shy, but then she spreads her arms and smiles back to her former self.
Meanwhiloe Treadwing inserts her card in the slot "well, fine with me, we could use some time off or even roll out som business over here, plus, sunflower seems to have made a friend already heh" she waits for the transaction to process and then retracts the card "hope to hear from you soon then and thank you for your good service!"

Billy looked impressed. "That's quite the ship!" he exclaimed, thumping his tail with excitement. "You gotta gimme the grand tour someday, eh? Whaddya say?" He leaned forward to waggle his ears, his mouth curling up on both ends into a grin.
The shopbot supervised the transaction and printed out the receipt on a slip of plastic datafilm. "Heh, Billy's handy to have around," the robot said, handing the receipt over to Treadwing as he spoke. "He knows everybody around here, and they know him. Anyway, if you ladies ever have some trouble, we'll be around to help!"

Sunflower happily replied - Well, I´d be truly happy to take you on a tour over our ship, just need the ok from Starlight, she is our "leader", well sort of and we need her to disable all the insanely dangerous setup of deathtraps and internal weapons on the ship... security measures as she says teehee in fact, I love to give you a ride on my alt mode as well!! - she says that a kicks the ground softly but continuously all excited.
Treadwing comes back with the robot picking the receipt up - Thank you! And yeah, may take your offer on having the little one come with us to shop around as long as he doesn´t mind! Glad to have found you guys so soon!

"Oh, so your leader's the super-cautious type, eh? Never hurts to cover your back," Billy said with an air of agreeableness. "And hey, if you're up for it, I'll totally join ya for a ride!" Eagerly he hopped in one spot like a small kangaroo. The shopbot meanwhile just gave Treadwing the nod. "Take care!" he told her with a wave. "If you wanna meet some other hyunan, just hit up the Praxus Hub!"

Sunflower happily jumped and transformed to her bike mode "hope you find the seat confortable mister Billy!" she said eagerly.
Treadwing thanked the shopkeeper and turned to Billy "so... where to go little guide? by the way, is there a nice place where I can have a drink on the way to the marketplace? y know maybe someplace to have fun as well!" She had a smirk on her face after saying that.
