Intra-Stunticon pairing, for one. Breakdown likes Dead End because Dead End is (a) civil, and (b) quite non-threatening, since he's usually sunk in an apathetic, depressive funk. Also, Dead End seems to care about him, trying to talk him out of the fits of screaming paranoia when all Breakdown wants to do is hide in a closet somewhere where no one can look at him!
Dead End likes Breakdown because he's not a loud, noisy, obnoxious jerk. Breakdown is vulnerable, and comforting Breakdown out of his fits gives Dead End something less meaningless to do than the usual. Breakdown is not alone among the Stunticons in worrying about Dead End when the Deadster goes off the deep end in one of his funks, but he's the mostly likely to tease Dead End out of it by seducing him.
