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

It is a rather pathetic firewall service humans use. They think it protects them.

Hmm, no. It is quite splendid really. You get to hold hands, cuddle, intimate things like that.

[heavyweaponsbot]

Hah. Even I could get through a human firewall. That is... sad.

... I would not know.

[notyourchauffeur]

I know. Thus, my joke.

Not at all?

[heavyweaponsbot]

... Oh. I get it now.

Not. Hrmn. Not really.

[notyourchauffeur]

Ahaha... yes. [THAT MOMENT WHEN YOU HAVE TO EXPLAIN A JOKE.]

Well. Take my word then, it can be absolutely wonderful on it's own.

[heavyweaponsbot]

Sorry. [He genuinely looks apologetic, at least.]

Yeah, sure. If you say so.

[SKEPTICISM.]

[notyourchauffeur]

That is. Okay.

Really! It is intoxicating knowing that you can be so happy with just one other individual.

[heavyweaponsbot]

...

[GRUMBLE MUTTER awkward subject this.]

And you would know?

[notyourchauffeur]

I have been in plenty of relationships.

[heavyweaponsbot]

... Oh.

Then... guess you would know.

[notyourchauffeur]

You mean to say you have never... had feelings for anyone?

[heavyweaponsbot]

...

Nothing worth discussing.

[notyourchauffeur]

It is so worth discussing!

[heavyweaponsbot]

It is not!

[notyourchauffeur]

Why not?

[heavyweaponsbot]

Because! It just... it is not!

[notyourchauffeur]

That is not a very good reason.

[heavyweaponsbot]

Why does it matter to you?

[notyourchauffeur]

I have interest in your affairs? If you truly do not wish to, that is fine.

[heavyweaponsbot]

I do not have any affairs.

[BECAUSE FUCKING DoTM HAPPENED.]

[notyourchauffeur]

Would you like to?

[heavyweaponsbot]

...

It does not matter.

[notyourchauffeur]

It most assuredly does matter.

[heavyweaponsbot]

It does not matter. Not any longer.

[notyourchauffeur]

See now there is something.

But you do not have to speak of it if you wish.
