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

I do not wish for you to be silent, Soundwave. And I am well aware of when I have said something to upset you.

[allshock_notalk]

QUERY: THEN WHAT DOES SHOCKWAVE WISH OF SOUNDWAVE?
FRUSTRATED. NOT SHOCKWAVE'S FAULT.

[notsoloyal]

It would be preferable if you were happy more often than angry.

... If you say so.

[allshock_notalk]

...WOULD LIKE THIS.

I DO.

[notsoloyal]

Then can we not work on this? You are fully capable of acting maturely for more than a breem.

[allshock_notalk]

IS THAT WHAT YOU ARE CONCERNED ABOUT.

[notsoloyal]

No, that is not what I am concerned about! Can I not be concerned about you without having an ulterior motive?

[allshock_notalk]

...
APOLOGIES.

[notsoloyal]

Hnnn, am I not capable of doing anything right. Our entire relationship has either been me upsetting you and having to sleep on the couch, or allowing you to get killed and having to stress about never seeing you again.

[allshock_notalk]

...
QUERY: DOES. SOUNDWAVE MAKE SHOCKWAVE UNHAPPY?

[notsoloyal]

No, no of course not. There is no one else I would rather be with, than you. I am happy when I am with you, Soundwave. It can simply be. Frustrating. Due to my own failings. Not yours.

[allshock_notalk]

I HAVE ALSO BEEN MAKING MISTAKES. FAILURES.
SHOCKWAVE: NOT BLAMED.

[notsoloyal]

You are flawless, Soundwave. Absolutely flawless.
