On waiting

[notyourchauffeur]

Excuse me- uh. Miss? Mundane? Is that the correct term? I apologize if my terminology is in error, but this is very much my first time addressing you.

Now, Mundane. I do appreciate your interest in my field of study, there is only so many times you can watch Cosmos. I appreciate Mister Sagan's works of course, lest I named my human alias after him, but perhaps more sleep would be in order? You have fallen ill, Mundane and while we wait for our game to open, perhaps you should rest rather than find other things to occupy your days with.

I am quite aware how little you rest. Recharge is important, and I will not lecture you on the matter beyond this. Less games about shouting at flying reptiles. It keeps you up to all hours!

Furthermore- I realize you are excited, but perhaps you ought to plan less disaster for my life? I'd quite appreciate some quiet time with Soundwave, Shockwave and Michael. Perhaps a flight with Jin or doing some work for Commander Shepard?

Can we not feed me synthetic energon and have silly (humiliating) hijinks? Please?

Warmest regards,

Skyfire

But they are only human. Humans can be compassionate and understanding. I have seen it.

[notsoloyal]

Not these ones. Do not waste your breath.

I would not mind some time with you, however.

[notyourchauffeur]

All she ever does is mock me. It is rather disheartening.

Really? Would you like to go over some sample data with me?

[notsoloyal]

You should just ignore it. What they do is hardly important.

Of course, you are quite relaxing to be around.

[notyourchauffeur]

Well I beg to differ, they do run our lives you know.

I am? Truly?

[notsoloyal]

So they think.

Yes, you are... Most of the time at least.

[notyourchauffeur]

... No it is pretty much fact.

Well. You can be quite agreeable, yourself. Most of the time.

[notsoloyal]

You give in far too easily.

Only most of the time? I am insulted, Skyfire.

[notyourchauffeur]

Perhaps, but I have more important things to do that fight with her every cycle of every solarcycle.

You just said the same of me! I was being redundant, Shockwave.

[notsoloyal]

What important things?

Hn.

[notyourchauffeur]

Like spend time with you and Soundwave. Also, my studies, of course.

[notsoloyal]

... Spending time with us classifies as important?

[notyourchauffeur]

Yes? You are both valuable people to me.

[notsoloyal]

Ah. Good to know.

[notyourchauffeur]

It is because I-

Well. You know.

[notsoloyal]

Yes, we are friends, I do not think that warrants such an opinion however. Not that I do not like hearing it. I do appreciate that, seeing as we do not spend nearly enough time together.

[notyourchauffeur]

Why not? I have come to care rather deeply for the both of you.

Oh, we do not? What would constitute the proper amount of time spent?

[notsoloyal]

Alright, well it makes sense for Soundwave.

More than a few hours each day, no excuses.

[notyourchauffeur]

For yourself as well, Shockwave.

That is a rather strict schedule.

[notsoloyal]

Friends are not as important however. Not in comparison. You are odd, Skyfire.

You brought such a schedule upon yourself.

[notyourchauffeur]

Friends are just as important!

I did? How so?

[notsoloyal]

Not as important as those you are in love with. I am aware of the basics of emotion.

You avoided spending time with us for quite some time. You only have yourself to blame.

[notyourchauffeur]

Perhaps it is easily defined that way by some individuals, but not by myself.

Ahh, I have worked myself into a debt, I see.

[notsoloyal]

So you say.

And you have.

[notyourchauffeur]

I do say. Besides, your cuteness adds value.

And it has gained interest, from the sounds of it?
