Closing ceremonies! Only a month late! Will the wonders ever cease.

@eerna oh my god acshdgagaahhdvsahsv I never expected you to see my post, so I won't lie, I feel like super embarrassed acsgsga
Tumblr media
anyway! not gonna lie, this wip has been sitting in my drafts for months now because I wanted to see if I could plan stuff but then I got stuck because Details are hard to figure out BUT I did write out a few scenes, so I'll put them below the cut because they're kind of long. the first one is the "opening" of the fic and the second one is a sort of reimagining of the Silent Princess memory. i have a few other scenes sort of scribbled out, but these are the most "polished" of the stuff i've written alsdkfjasdfk
the opening lol
Link wakes to a faint buzzing in his ear that sends little darts of pain shooting through his skull. He waits for it to end, and when it doesn’t he groans and rolls over, smacking the space around him to find whatever was making that noise and make it shut up. He can’t fathom why his brain is rolling through his skull like that and why there’s an intense pressure behind his eyes, but when he rolls onto his side, he has to press a hand to his abdomen to settle whatever was sloshing around inside his stomach.
Ah. He’s hungover.
Link peels open his eyes and the light sends a fresh wave of pain ricocheting through his skull. He blinks once, twice, and then forces his eyes open to find a phone the size vibrating against the ground a few inches away from his hand.
Link groans and pushes himself up to a sitting position before grabbing the phone and dismissing the alarm. When the phone falls silent in his hands, he finally looks around and tries to assess the situation.
He’s sitting in a bathtub, the porcelain slightly damp from what he hopes is just water. His shirt smells vaguely of cheap vodka and he still can barely look at the sunlight streaming through the window without wincing.
A moment later, he realizes the phone in his hands isn’t his.
Link holds the phone up to his face and rubs the grogginess from his eyes. He swipes up on the screen, surprised that it isn’t protected by a password.
The phone is open on note in the notes app, and it reads:
link, if you’re reading this right now, im so sorry for leaving you in the tub like that!!! my dad’s supposed to come home from the office today and the document case i was telling you about is missing and he cant know i lost it. i know we just started getting along, and im so sorry to ask you this, but could you find the document case? impa’s in my contacts and she can help you. also you have permission to dig through my phone, just dont judge me if i have anything embarrassing on there. can you find the file by midnight? his flight leaves at 3 and i can stall him until then.
it’s 6:11 right now so i have to run before he gets back, but please hurry! i’ll be waiting for you
-zelda
Link blinks and turns the phone off.
Last night? What happened last night? Why can’t he remember anything?
Well, if his raging headache tells him anything, it’s that he had probably blacked out last night.
Link isn’t usually a drinker or a partier. He isn’t really one to go to big social events. So he’s really confused as to why he woke up passed out in a tub with zero memories.
And also, why Zelda left her phone with him.
a version of the Silent Princess memory but they're at a party and its modern
Zelda laughs. “I think I got a little too sober from the Yiga incident to enjoy the party now.”
Link isn’t sure if he’s supposed to laugh with her, but nods anyway. “Do you want to get some air?”
Zelda gives him an odd look, then sighs. “Yeah. Yes. That would be a good idea.”
Surprisingly, she grabs his forearm and leads him through all the bodies pressed against each other. He can feel the heat of her hand wrapping entirely around his arm like a hot glove, even above the heat of the late summer air and the heat from other people in close proximity.
Somehow, they make it to the other side of the house. Zelda pushes the back door open and pulls him past the other stragglers outside before they find a nice tree with a patch of grass that seems generally clear of alcohol and vomit.
Zelda releases his arm as soon as she finds the tree and she sits down, dropping her head against the trunk.
“Are you okay?” He asks.
Zelda waves her hand vaguely.
Link pauses. “Do you need water?”
“If you get me any more water, I’m probably gonna piss myself,” says Zelda. “Sit down.”
He sits down.
The crickets hum vaguely around them, mingling with the distant buzzing and thumping bass of the music from the party. But without people pressing in from all sides and an open field in front of them, it finally feels like he can take a full breath.
The silence settles over them like a blanket. It feels comfortable to him, but he isn’t sure if it’s supposed to be.
“Oh, Link, look.”
Link cranes his head to see Zelda twist around and point out a blue flower glowing vaguely in the dark. It was beautiful with blue petals so light they looked almost white, and a sky blue bleeding out from the center before fading out.
He wants to give her a questioning look, but she’s transfixed on the flower. He can see the smallest of smiles creeping up onto the corners of her mouth.
“It’s a Silent Princess,” she says. “It was my mom’s favorite flower.”
He can tell something important is happening, so he keeps his mouth shut.
“She said that we can’t grow them domestically yet, despite our best efforts.” Zelda breaks into a full smile and it’s radiant. “The Princess can only thrive out here. In the wild.”
They both turn to look back at the house as another loud WHOOP cuts through the air, followed by the sound of a can being crushed against a head.
“Nature is beautiful,” says Link.
Zelda swats him and he has to bite back a laugh.
She turns and runs a gentle finger along one of the petals before sighing and leaning back against the tree.
“Thank you,” she says suddenly. “For being there with the Yiga. And for being there the whole party.” He can hear her swallow. “I’m sorry for being a bitch.”
“You weren’t being a bitch,” says Link.
“I was, though.” Zelda inhales beside him. “I mean, just because I’m under a lot of stress from my dad doesn’t mean I’m allowed to take it out on other people. I was acting like a kid.”
“To be fair, your dad sounds like an asshole sometimes.”
Zelda snorts. “Yeah. He can be.” He turns his head to see her lean forward to fiddle with the grass. “But he’s got a lot on his plate. And it probably doesn’t help that his daughter doesn’t want anything to do with his ‘legacy.’”
“Just because your dad’s under a lot of pressure doesn’t mean he’s allowed to be an asshole,” Link points out.
Zelda finally looks up at him and offers him a small grin. “Fair enough.”
“And besides, you’re your own person. You don’t need to follow in his footsteps.”
“That’s what I said,” huffs Zelda. “But of course it’s, ‘blah blah you have a responsibility. I didn’t raise you like this so you could waste your time researching pointless things.’” She sighs. “It’s fine. It’s whatever. I came to this stupid party to blow off steam, I guess. But Goddess, I did not eat enough today to drink that many cans of shitty beer.”
Link sits upright, alert. “Do you need to get food or—”
“No, no, that’s fine.” And that smile returns and Link wonders what else he can say to make it stay. “You’re sweet. But I’ve probably gotten drunk enough tonight.” Her eyes slide up to him and the mischief in them stops his heart for a moment. “You still have to try the Hot Frog.”
Link blinked. “...what is that?”
--
the endings are abrupt on both of them just bc i wasn't entirely sure how to end them akldjfasd. also the "Hot Frog" is gonna be some kind of mixed drink that gets link really drunk -- me trying to allude more to the original memory from the game haha
anyway, thank you so much for the ask! and thank u for coming up with the shitpost because it made me laugh the first time i read it hasdklfj hopefully i'll continue this one day and do ur shitpost au justice!

the old guard @ eurovision (a crack mix)
Tumblr media
the playlist equivalent of a shitpost: i.e. what i get after far too many hours spent listening to eurovision songs
this exists mostly because hearing “hasta la vista” and thinking of joe @ booker made me laugh, and i decided it warranted the most ridiculous playlist i’ve ever made. its pretty much chronological following pre-canon, the events of the movie, and post-canon. hope it gives you a laugh! songs and lyric snippets under the cut. 
heroes - måns zelmerlöw (the team / “this is what we do”)
We are the heroes of our time But we're dancing with the demons in our minds
invincible - carola (andy/quynh, the original power couple / “they ran through the world together, fought thousands of battles side by side”)
Invincible – one love supreme Unbreakable – one land of dreams Two hearts unite – insatiable This love tonight – invincible
playing with fire - ovi & paula seling (the enemies to lovers speedrun pt. 1: enemies / “we killed each other” / “many times”)
Boy, boy, boy, if you're mean I will start a fight tonight You and me, can't you see, We're playing with fire Tell me now, Do you feel this burning desire?
miracle  - ovi & paula seling (the enemies to lovers speedrun pt. 2: lovers / “my blessing isn’t that i get an eternal life. my blessing is i found you.”)
All the things I see I think I see them too All for you and me It's like a dream come true It's so beautiful No one will ever know It's a miracle
if love was a crime - poli genova (andy/quynh + joe/nicky giving homophobia a big fuck you over the centuries)
If love was a crime then we would be criminals Locked up for life but I'll do the time
Together we're untouchable You and me against the world Together we're invincible They will never break us down
always - aysel & arash (andy/quynh + joe/nicky living their best gay lives; the happy years)
Always on my mind Always in my dreams I wanna hold you close with me Always all the time
sound of silence - dami im (quynh under the water / “she kept fighting and she kept drowning”)
Getting hard to break through the madness You're not here it never makes sense Tidal waves of tears are crashing No one here to save me drowning 'Cause baby you're not here with me And I keep calling calling
undo - sanna nielsen (booker losing his family / “just because we keep living doesn’t mean we stop hurting”)
Undo my sad Undo what hurts so bad Undo my pain
alcohol is free - koza mostra (booker and andy’s unhealthy coping mechanisms)
Alcohol, alcohol, alcohol is free Alcohol, alcohol, alcohol is free
rise up - freaky fortune (kill floor)
Come on and rise up jump out of what keeps you down, Get high and rise up fly get your feet of the ground, Come on and rise up rise up rise up rise up rise rise rise...
alive - vincent bueno (nile discovering her immortality)
All I need is a little spark To light this whole world up Prepare for fire shots Only you can make me feel alive again, alive again
never forget - greta salome & jonsi (andy remembering quynh / “i lost a soldier”)
She mourns beneath the moonlit sky
Remembering when they said goodbye
Cause I still believe that you’ll remember me
grande amore - il volo (the van scene / “he’s all and more”)
Now you know
You are my only, great love
too late for love - john lundvik (the potential for nile/booker / the cave scene)
Say, am I wrong To wonder if it could be you and me? Is it too late for love? Hmm Is it too late for love? I wanna know Is it too late for love? I can't take no more Is it?
warrior - nina sublatti (andy & nile / “you come from warriors”)
World's gonna listen to me Violence, set it free Wings are gonna spread up
World's gonna get up and see I'm a warrior
every minute - eric saade (joe and nicky reminiscing about their malta sexcation / “oh, THAT time in malta...”)
We couldn't sleep, so we were up all night Making each other blush, and that's all right
I love it in the morning  I love it in the evening  I love it every weekend I want it all, every minute
proud - tamara todevska (nile making her own choices / “i’m not doing this”)
Tell them Raise your voice and say it loudly Show them what it means to stand up proudly
what about my dreams - kati wolf (copley realizing merrick’s true colours & helping nile / “he only cares about her immortality, not what she’s done with it”)
What about how I feel? What about my needs? I can't hold back, I can't go back I must be free What about how I feel?
its my time - jade ewen (nile in the elevator / “good luck, ms. freeman”) *note: not on spotify
It's my time now I'll break through I've made my move And my faith is strong now I've got the heart To reach the heights To show you it's my time tonight
hasta la vista - ruslan alehno (joe @ booker post-betrayal / “you selfish piece of shit”)
You've cast me away to a desert shore You've shattered my heart, now you keep the score
Hasta la vista, baby I'm gonna miss you, maybe
(i would) die for you - antique (the found family fighting together / “cover andy”)
'Cause I would die for you Look into my eyes and see it's true Really I could never lie to you Just to make you see that No one else could ever love you Like the way I do
say yay! - barei (andy regaining hope / “you reminded me that there are people worth fighting for”)
I feel alive  I wanna fight Won’t fix by running Come on and raise your battle cry You are the one who never dies
a new tomorrow - a friend in london (copley’s board)
Come on boys, come on girls In this crazy, crazy world You're the diamonds you're the pearls Let's make a new tomorrow
this is our night - sakis rouvas (the immortal squad with a new mission and new purpose / “let’s get to work”)
Time has come, so make a stand On your own, and take command Beat the odds, you will survive Stronger now, you feel alive This is our night, fly to the top baby Yes we can do it, just wait and see
rise like a phoenix - conchita wurst (post-credits: quynh returning / “hello, booker”)
Out of the ashes seeking rather than vengeance Retribution you were warned Once I'm transformed Once I'm reborn You know I will rise like a phoenix
edit: unlikely that anyone would notice, but i’ve made some slight changes, mostly reordering! also if anyone is curious about which countries are represented, the highest number of songs are from sweden (5), greece (4), austria, romania and bulgaria tied (2) and then azerbaijan, australia, iceland, italy, georiga, north macedonia, hungary, spain and denmark all have 1. 
also, songs that didn’t make the cut, in case anyone wants more:
drama queen - joe and nicky hanging out with drag queens and punching nazis in 1930s berlin
cake to bake - the baklava scene
not alone - eventual post-canon booker forgiveness

Abel info dump 2 me about ur ocs challenge
alright its 12am and i dont expect this to make sense, read at your own risk but heres a bullshit couple paragraphs on ashley underwood, 
this is mostly ash because i think about her the most and this will make no sense because i haven't talked about her in literal months. ash is very complicated to me because i messed a lot with her characterization for a while and i still do, and i constantly wonder if I'm just shoving her into something convenient and stereotypical and therefore lessening her value, and then i decided that shes not real and i can make characters that don't make sense to anyone else but myself and i no longer also have to watch someone else take away pieces from her while i sit silently confused and hurt like i did before. anyway, she's very special to me because i put myself in her in a lot of small ways because she was the first oc i properly created. i made her originally for a fantasy storyline i was doing with some friends, and i thought she was very cool because she could do magic (doctor strange-esque, im not original) and then i gave her some trauma because its the next logical step. now i mostly think of her in all the modern aus that were created, and a lot of its with her old love interest (they had a very cool dynamic, sometimes childhood best friends to lovers, both with no idea how to be functional members of society, but i dont know if I'm like legally allowed to discuss them anymore so if i mention it once or twice my bad i just like knowing how my ocs act in relationships).  i don't really know how I'm supposed to write things so I'm just going to put some general information and then ramble for a billion words cool sorry
general things!! shes a disaster bisexual whos 5′8″ and surviving on coffee and spite, she has freckles and tan skin (half Spanish on her mom's side- speaking of her parents died when she was 10 either in a car accident or a murder I didn't make my mind up) very curly brown hair and worrying bags under her eyes. she can look intimidating at first because she has one of those resting bitch faces and a dislike of being alive (there's a little bit of mental illness as a treat) also I'm really tired writing this I'm so sorry
she's an English major- she loves books, spent most her teenage years with her nose in one because it was easier than talking to people and also they're Fucking Good, she has shelves filled with them and two copies of her favourites so she can fill one with notes and annotations and she cries is she ever accidentally ruins one, she never sleeps when she should, staying up till the early morning and then napping at every chance she gets (she has fallen asleep on all of her friends so often, and never makes it through the second hour of the movie unless it's important), she starfishes when she sleeps and is a nightmare to wake up because she will tell you rather impolitely to “leave her the fuck alone” (getting out of bed means dealing with the world and it's so tiring to do it over and over), she’s constantly cold, wrapped up in sweaters and if she's comfortable enough, clings to the closets human heater. speaking of, it takes her a while to warm up to people, used to absolutely shut herself off from getting close to people in fear of them leaving before going to ~therapy~.  she gets top grades in school because she works until shes burnt out and puts an overwhelming amount of pressure on herself, breaks down when she cant understand something in the first few tries because it feels like a failure, she does debate and writes poems and lyrics in beat up notebooks, hides them when people come over and owns like 3 guitars, sings unreasonably well and has scarily specific playlists, has round glasses she only wears when she has to because she cant see shit far away, catches colds often, brushes them off till shes forced into a bed, she studies the stars because theyre beautiful and unattainable and reads psychology books and likes true crime but only when theres a satisfying ending, she shows love through acts of service and physical touch, likes receiving quality time and words of affirmation, she takes polaroids of all her friends and sticks a bunch to her wall so she can stare at them and know that things are worth it now, has posters and art to remind herself of the little joys in life, will fight you about the star wars movies, overly competitive in a lot of things (mario-kart is a dangerous fucking game), curses a lot, stress bakes and cries when something goes slightly wrong, accidentally collects a following on tiktok from shitposting at 4am and having a nice aesthetic (and being pretty), would be the mysterious girl who you see/works at the bookstore/coffee-shop and fall a little bit in love with, writes essays last minute due to chronic procrastination and still aces it, is a ravenclaw, would be a child of hades in the pjo universe, would play outside hitter in volleyball (yes there was a haikyuu au), would be bassist in a band. i think this is all i can think of tonight because my eyes hurt but feel free to ask questions/ say anything honestly i really missed talking about my ocs and i have: many more that i will also talk about if anyone wants me to, (please. my inbox is so open please tell me abt ur ocs too i think its so fun)

One Day
Pre-serum! Steve Rogers x Mexican!Reader
A/N: commission for the amazing @reina-shitposts​ (im so sorry it took forever to post.)
Summary: While your parents are away at work, Steve joins your sisters and you for dinner.
Tumblr media
The kitchen smelled like frijoles and arroz, the area surrounding the stove was warm as you walked in to gather plates and cups for dinner. Your parents were working late again, and it was your job as the oldest of three to prepare the meals and make sure everyone behaved – it was a curse and blessing. The curse was that you were held responsible for anything and everything that happened while they were away from the apartment, the blessing was that it meant you could have anyone over for dinner if it pleased you – and tonight, once again, a special guest was coming over. 
Nina, one of your younger sisters, walked in, a book in hand. “Y tu novio?” 
“He is not my boyfriend,” you scolded, telling her to put away the book. “It is rude to read while we eat.”
“It’s rude to have strange men in our house, Papa would not approve.”
Turning off the stove, you looked at Nina, hand on your hip. “I’m twenty years old, I have my own job and one day I’ll move far away from you. But for now, what I say goes, okay?”
Your sister smiled sweetly at you and you knew what she wanted; rolling your eyes you sighed and told her to fetch your handbag from your room. “I will give you enough to go to the cinema, but that’s it.”
“Fine by me.”
Watching as she skirted out the kitchen, you yelled for her to get Maria washed up for dinner. “Wash your hands too!”
She shouted back something you could not understand as a sharp knock came from the front door; your heart leaped as you took off the apron from around the new dark blue dress you had bought with last week’s paycheck, the little you had left after helping your parents, and rushed to get the door. Taking a deep breath, you opened it up to see your long-time neighbor, Steve Rogers. 
He was a stringy little fella with the greatest blue eyes you had ever seen – who was wearing brown slacks and a white button up, a few books in hand and a small arrangement of flowers in the other. He grinned as you asked him to come in, closing the door gently as he walked in, turning nervously and holding up the flowers.
“I got these for you, Bucky helped me picked them out.”
You reached for them, fingers touching his as you thanked him. “They are so pretty; I should put them in water. My mom has an extra vase under the sink, they will look so nice on my bedroom window.”
The mention of your bedroom made Steve blush and you grinned, motioning for him to follow as you walked into the kitchen.
 He whistled and exclaimed how good it smelled. “You’re a great cook, any man would be lucky.”
Laughing, you explained that you liked cooking and did it for fun. “I wouldn’t want to marry someone who just wants me for my cooking.”
“Oh, no, no,” Steve backtracked, eyes wide as you pulled out a vase from under the sink. He nervously brushed away hair from his forehead and you laughed, explaining that you were just teasing him. He sighed in relief and apologized. “You – you have many attributes that would attract any man.”
His words were firm and sincere as he stood there, a good deal shorter than you – skinny and constantly ill, he was what the world would call fragile, but you saw beyond the layers. You saw the braveness in Steve’s eyes, the kindness in his laugh and his ability to see a person for who they were and celebrate their differences from him – it was hard being a Mexican family in this city, let alone the only one in the whole apartment complex. You noticed the dirty looks and assumptions, but it was Steve and his mother, Sarah, who welcomed the lot of you with open arms and it had been like that for years now. 
“Steve!”
It was Maria, your six-year-old sister; she rushed the man and tugged at his sleeves, begging him to take a look at his new baseball you had gotten her. Steve grinned and took the ball, tossing it up in the air a few times.  “Let’s take this ball out tomorrow, yeah? We can see how high it goes.”
The little girl agreed, and Nina stood there, eyes on the books Steve had in his hand. You could see the curiosity in her eyes as she turned her head to the left, hoping to catch the titles. Steve noticed too and held them up. 
“I picked these out for you, the bookstore had a great deal.”
Nina’s face perked up and she walked over to Steve, taking the books when he handed them off. You leaned against the counter and watched as she squealed in excitement, explaining that she had grown tired of reading the same old books.
“Thank you, Steve! I told my sister you weren’t so bad, I’m right!”
“Nina!” You yelled; eyes widen in disbelief. Steve looked over to you and laughed, his mouth pulled into a great teasing smile and you looked away, feeling the heat rise up to your cheeks – he did that to you, made things stir inside and by the way he blushed, you knew you did the same to him.
Clapping your hands, you got everyone’s attention and felt Steve’s eyes still on you. “Dinner is ready, everyone take a seat, and Nina.” the young girl gazed up at you, books in hand. “You can have one book at the table, only one.”
This time you winked at Steve, who blushed again but walked over to you, taking the space up next to you. The two of you watched, backs leaned against the kitchen counter, as the two children settled at the table, Maria’s legs swinging as she held the baseball in hand and Nina, across from her, already reading the first page of the novel of her choosing. Most nights, it was just the three of you, but it seemed every time Steve came over for dinner, the kitchen felt warmer than ever. 
“This is nice,” he whispered, eyes diverting up to yours; that’s when you felt his knuckles brushing against yours and it was the sincerest feeling you had ever felt – it was the feeling of love blossoming and you knew then that this was the future you wanted with Steve, and no one would ever take that from you.
“Yeah,” you whispered back, shifting your hand to grab his. He held it tight and you gave it a squeeze. “This feels really nice.”
….
The morning sun broke through the sheer white curtains, warming the side of your face up. Opening your eyes, they went to the vase on the desk that stood under the window – the flowers Steve had gotten you last night were still glowing, and you felt a lightness in your chest. Your gaze moved to the left to the framed photo of your brother, Alberto; he was so handsome in his military uniform, he had enlisted a few months ago and besides the letters the family got every few weeks, there was no way of knowing how he was. Everyone in the family feared one day a knock on the door that would bring terrible news, so everyone kept busy – that was the way you all were dealing with his absences. Saying a whispered prayer for Alberto, you got up from the bed and began to get ready for the day – it was your day off and you planned on meeting Steve outside the complex building, the two of you were going to the cinema. 
You got dressed in a simple light green dress with some matching loafers, then walked into the living room to find the house quiet – the girls were at school by now, your parents usually dropped them off before heading to work. The apartment was quiet and nice as you tidied up a bit before grabbing a coat and your bag, heading downstairs to meet Steve. 
He was outside, hands tucked into his slacks, looking nervous as his eyes followed those who passed by the building. You watched for a moment before tapping his shoulder, laughing as he turned around with great relief on his face – he closed his eyes when you leaned down to kiss his cheek and asked if he was ready. 
“Always,” he whispered, motioning for you to lead the way. The two of you walked side by side, the cinema was only two blocks away, but your footsteps were slow and deliberate – you liked to cherish every single second you had with Steve. You listened as he talked about trying to get enlisted and how he failed. “Bucky left last week, I just wanted to join the fight.”
“I understand,” you said, stopping next to a bakery. Steve stopped too and blushed when you reached down for his hand, holding it tightly. “This is selfish, but I have to say I’m glad you are here. Alberto left and I fear for him every day, I cannot imagine you leaving me too.”
Steve’s eyes softened and he gave your palm a squeeze back. “I wouldn’t want to leave you.”
“Good,” you laughed, not letting go of his hand. “Shall we go see a film now?”
The two of you did and inside the theater, side by side, you held hands in the dark. Steve’s fingers were long and gentle, warm against yours as the movie flickered in front of you. Afterwards, you held his hand as you exited the playhouse and started toward the corner diner; tucked in a back booth, the two of you ordered shakes and fries, holding hands across the table and ignoring the rest of the world.  Once you were full, Steve walked you to the local market – you had to pick up some ingredients for dinner. Inside the market, he held the basket for you as you added things you needed and once you got back to the apartment complex, Nina and Maria were outside, home from school. 
“Steve!” Maria was the first to run to the man, grabbing his hand as the two of you walked toward the stairs that lead up to the second floor. She was going on and on about the mean boys at her school, and Steve listened until she asked what she should do.
“I don’t like bullies,” he reminded her, kneeling beside her. You watched as he shuffled the brown grocery bag from one arm to the other and placed a hand on her shoulder. “We don’t let anyone push us around, we fight for what’s right.”
Maria gazed up at you and you nodded. “Steve is right, you need not back down from bullies. Show them how strong you are.”
She nodded and Steve got up, turning his attention to Nina. He asked her about the book she was reading, everyone following you up the stairs as you listened to them ramble on about the story. It seemed like everyone was talking at once as you got to the front door of the apartment; you unlocked the door and swung it open, telling the girls to get in. They both ran in and you held the door closed a bit to give Steve and you some privacy.
“I better get dinner going…”
“No worries,” Steve laughed, handing off the bag. “I had fun today.”
“Me too,” you whispered, hating the feeling of hiding him. He was such a good man; you knew your parents liked Steve but weren’t sure how they would feel about the two of you pursuing a relationship. You wanted to invite him in and were about to when the two girls screamed – Steve and you gave each other a panic look before running into the apartment. When you walked in, you nearly dropped the grocery bag in your hand because your parents were standing in the living room with Alberto.
Tears sprouted from the corner of your eyes as you ran into the arms of your older brother, who held you tight. Your mother was crying, and your father stood proud, as the two of you pulled apart and you asked what he was doing here.
“I’m on leave, for a week. I wanted to surprise you all.”
The two of you hugged again before Alberto eyed Steve, who was standing near the open front door. He looked a bit nervous, but Alberto removed his arms from around you and nodded to him.
“Rogers, what are you doing here?”
“He always comes over, he likes Y/N’s cooking,” Maria beamed, not realizing what she had done. Nina elbowed the little girl, but it was too late; the cat was out of the bag. You left your brother’s side and stood in front of your parents, standing strong as you looked over your shoulder to Steve.
“Please do not be angry,” you pleaded, reaching for your mother’s hand. Her face was tensed but you knew she was the one that would break easier. “I care about Steve and yes, he comes over occasionally, but Nina and Maria are always here.”
“That’s not the point,” your father said, sighing. He looked over to Steve and gave the young man a sympathetic smile. “Whatever is going on between my daughter and you, ends now. It’s not right.”
“Father,” you argued, casting a glance to your mother for support. But all she did was take the bag of groceries from your hand and call the girls to the kitchen with her. “You can not be serious. I’m a grown woman, I can make my own life choices.”
“What will people say? When the two of you walk down the street together, what would they think? I don’t want you to go through that.”
Unable to comprehend what he was saying, you held back tears and looked to Steve, who straightened up and stared at your father.
“I mean no disrespect, sir,” he said, stepping further into the living room until he was standing next to Alberto. “We walk down the street together just fine.”
The rebellion tone in his voice made you smile, and you watched as Steve stood taller than he had ever. Your father stared back at him and for a moment, you were afraid that this would all end; no more dinners with Steve and suddenly, the little future you dreamt of with Steve seemed to be slipping away until Alberto cleared his throat.
“Dad, come on,” he grinned, throwing an arm around your shoulder. “We’re at war, isn’t life hard enough? Let the kids have their fun, and hell, if it ends in marriage our family will only get bigger. Plus, our little Y/N would be so lucky to catch a fish like Rogers, I never heard of a man who's gone through so much trouble to enlist.”
Alberto looked to Steve and whistled, patting him hard on the back. It nearly sent the man flying and even your father broke a smile. “They were fools to reject you, you’re a good man, Steve.”
You glanced over to your father, seeing his body relaxed and his arms drop from his chest. He sighed and shook his head, pointing a finger at you then Steve. “Know this, society might not accept this – if you marry and have children, they might be looked upon with judgement…just know, in this family none of that will matter.”
Your heart raced as Steve reached out a hand to your father, thanking him for his blessing. “I promise all my intentions are good.”
The two men shook hands and Alberto laughed, pushing you toward Steve, who caught you by the hand. Your father grinned and called to your mother, who apparently had been listening, along with your sisters, to the whole conversation – they were all smiles and Maria ran straight to Steve, asking if the two of you were going to get married. Steve blushed but gazed over to you with nothing but love in his blue eyes and he shrugged to the little girl.
“Maybe one day.”
His answer rang in your heart, because one day, whenever it may come, was all you would ever need.

race is a flat earther and al wants to die
when i planned this fic this morning it was a lot more stupid and shit
but then this happened
so im sorry ig
warnings: none really. but angst kinda ig sorta
ship: ehhhhhh ralbert....
word count: 1030 how satisfying
His hand was wrapped tightly around the steering wheel, eyes trained on the road ahead of him, only flicking away every so often to check the rearview mirror.  It was nighttime, meaning it was easy to lose oneself in the daunting shadows of the streets, threatening to pull you under with its strength.  
Silence suffocated the atmosphere as it had often done in the past few months.  Lips stuck together, struggling to make conversation though it had once been easy.  Two hearts that had once been adjoined drifting apart by the second.  Was it a blessing or a curse?  A relief or a burden?  The answers were unclear, but they had a mutual understanding of the shared feeling.  Whatever they had was drawing to a close.  It was weirdly sickening.  Disheartening.  Feeling the grasp of something so strong slipping between their fingertips as their hands that once gripped the other’s so tight barely brushed at the edges.  It was like holding water in open hands.  
They drove in circles around their town, their stomachs full from dinner.  It was Valentine’s day and almost out of sheer obligation, and partly from literal desire, they’d decided upon a date night.  It had been a while since they had done something together, anyway.  
The night was going smoothly.  No petty arguments.  No fuck-ups or frayed ends fraying further.  It was almost like old times.  Almost.
They passed a road sign with a large, cheesy photo of the Earth on it, along with some stupid advertisement for water, and Race smiled sadly, brain wandering as a new memory invaded his mind.
“So, the Earth is flat.”
Albert groaned, letting his book drop to his lap as he scrubbed a hand over his face.
“You’re literally an astrophysics major,” Albert sighed, keeping his palms pressed over his eyes as he fought the impending headache that threatened his skull, “don’t come at me with this shit.”
“Oh come oooonnnn,” Race whined, “Think about it!  People all around the globe support this theory!”
Albert lifted his head, a bemused look etched on his face.  He opened and closed his mouth a few times before scrunching up his eyes and shaking his head.
Race bit back the urge to laugh, Albert’s reaction already better than he had imagined.
“Race, baby,” He sat up, guiding Race to sit down next to him and leaning forward to rub his temples, “I want you to say that last sentence again, but say it slowly.  People all around the globe support it?”
Race couldn’t help the spurt of giggles that passed his lips, his face sprouting into a giddy grin, “Sorry, babe, sorry,” he managed between laughs, noticing that Albert was watching him with an exasperatedly amused expression, “I just wanted to see your reaction.”
Albert studied him for a moment longer, then scoffed and picked his book back up, “You give me pain, love.”
Race situated himself so that he was tucked into Albert’s side and pressed a kiss to his cheek, “Yeah, but you love me, so…”
Albert’s gaze didn’t shift from his book, but his smile turned into something a little more genuine, “Yeah, I guess I do.”
The boys in the memory seemed to differ immensely from the boys who sat in the front seat of Race’s old RAV4 now.  They had been more carefree.  More open with each other.  Less scared to say something wrong.  But at the same time, more scared.  Less resilient to when his right to speak up was thwarted.  He had grown to be more guarded with himself.  To hold his ground better, despite how detrimental standing up for himself seemed to be.
They passed a train station and another memory resurfaced, the intimacy of that moment making it almost more painful.
Albert’s lips were soft against his, hands gripping his biceps as they kissed slowly.  It was well past midnight.  Long since the time when other pedestrians swarmed the area, looking to go home after a long day of work.  
They were alone, their solitude invigorating.
Albert lifted his hand, lacing his fingers into the back of Race’s hair and deepening their kiss.  They were close, warm, happy.  In love.
He wasn’t sure how long they had been there, listening to music and talking before losing themselves in each other, but it was amazing.  Every stupid, cheesy love movie made sense in that moment.  It was cliche, but real and raw and Race couldn’t be happier.
Albert pulled away and they broke apart completely, chests heaving and eyes glinting.  
Albert traced his fingers lovingly along Race’s jaw, placing another, softer kiss on his lips.  Race allowed his eyes to flutter shut again.
“My god, I’m in love with you,” Albert murmured, voice barely audible.
Race leaned his forehead against Albert’s, “I’m in love with you, too.”
Race swallowed, emotion rising in his throat.  He missed it.  He missed the long kisses and the strong embraces.  He missed them.  
The urge to reach out and take hold of Albert’s hand soon became too much to bear and he shifted his arm over the console.  He could see Albert’s look of surprise in his peripheral when he intertwined their fingers, but he stayed adamant and a moment later, he felt Albert squeeze back, rubbing his thumb over his knuckles.  Just like old times.
So why didn’t it feel like it?
He rounded the turn into Albert’s neighborhood, driving on mental autopilot to the house he’d driven to so many times.  He pulled up gradually, putting the car in park almost reluctantly.  Almost.
They sat in silence for a moment.
“Tonight was fun,” Race said, breaking the quiet.
Albert looked at him, smiling.  It didn’t look right.
“Yeah, it was really nice.”
His remark was genuine, but scripted.  
“I love you,” Race said, leaning forward to peck Albert on the lips, “Happy Valentine’s day.”
Albert reciprocated, but the warm feeling that once accompanied the motion was nonexistent, a weird pang of sadness taking its place.
“I love you, too,” Albert said, opening the car door, “Drive home safe.  Happy Valentine’s day.”
Race waved, watching as he walked to his front door.  They knew where they stood, but god did it hurt.

Sayaka and S/O imagine
Tumblr media
in a nutshell: its late, im bored out my ass and i need to write something tooth-rottingly sweet with one of the DR Gals because they don’t get enough love.
Imagine and my thoughts under the cut, + thanks if ya actually do read it considering I don’t do much serious writing on this blog.
Tumblr media
Ya know, with a lot of the shitposting I do, I don’t get a lot of chances to do some wholesome moments with Danganronpa characters without having to go to angst-ville. 
And plus the only other times where it HAS been seen was during my P3 writing stuff. So I decided, fuck it, let’s just make one purely wholesome.
And why not with a DR Gal too?
(if you can’t tell I have a bit of a soft spot for Sayaka)
Word of warning it’s also kinda long as SHIT
Sayaka walked back and forth in the music room impatiently, her mind racing with thoughts.
She had invited her S/O to the room, saying it was a surprise for their birthday. Sayaka spent literal weeks in preparation for this day with a present she thought would reach out to her S/O’s heart.
Earlier that day during lunch...
(Kaede) “Sayaka, how many times do we have to say it? S/O will love the song you wrote no matter what!”
(Ibuki) “Kaede’s right! We practiced with you, and we DEFINITELY would’ve said something if it was shit!”
(Kaede) “N-Not the words I would’ve used but not too far off.”
(Sayaka) “Thanks again you guys, I know I know...It’s just that I really wanna surprise him you know! I made sure to ask Makoto if he could distract S/O while you two get prepped.”
(Kaede) “With Shuichi, Mahiru and Hiyoko’s help, I’m sure that we would’ve been fine!”
(Ibuki) “And besides, the gift itself is amazing! A song written by not ONLY Sayaka Maizono and her gang, but with Risette AND a Japanese speaking Puerto-Rican named Paz! That’s some serious creativity points right there!”
(Kaede) “Yeah, and you look pretty cute in the outfit you’ll be wearing!”
(Sayaka) “Hm...I just hope nothing goes wrong. It seems like when I plan these kinda things, it doesn’t go right.”
(Ibuki) “Just breathe girl! If Ibuki says you’ll be fine, you’ll be fine!”
(Kaede) “We got your back! Now come on, eat up! Your food’s gonna get cold!”
Present...
Sayaka took a deep breath, collecting her thoughts and beginning to calm down.
(Sayaka) “Come on Maizono! You got this! Rise-chan helped you out, Kaede and Ibuki helped you out, you got this! I’m not a little caterpillar, I’m a butterfly now-”
(Makoto’s Voice) “S-Sayaka?”
(Sayaka) “ACK!”
She spun around seeing Makoto and S/O standing in front of the door, slightly wide eyed but awkwardly smiling.
(Makoto) “Were we-snrk-interrupting something?”
(Sayaka) “Bah, shush!”
(S/O) “S-Sayaka? What is all this?”
She smiled widely before snapping her fingers and the curtains behind her unfolding, Kaede, Ibuki, Hiyoko, Shuichi and Mahiru holding instruments.
Tumblr media
“Just a little birthday gift.”
I love you todoite kono omoi I love you; I hope these thoughts reach you
kitto itsuka wa kanau yo ne I'm sure one day it'll come true
konna kimochi setsuna sugiru no Such feelings are too painful
hajimari nante wakaranai no I don't understand things such as beginnings namae mo heibon de doko ni demo isou It seems like you could have an ordinary name and be anywhere demo nanmannin ite mo watashi But no matter how many people there are kitto kimi wo mitsukeru yo I'm sure to find you sunao na kimochi tojikome  I don't like the me who locked up these quiet feelings kara ni komotta jibun ga iya de  And confined herself in a shell ki no nai furi suru sono tabi ni Each time that I halfheartedly hold myself back tada itami ga fueteku The pain merely grows kimi wa nani wo negau no? What do you wish for? soba ni ite hoshii I want to be close to you zutto zutto sore dake na no ni Forever, forever that's all I want and yet…
(doki doki…) (Thump thump…)
koi no yokushiryoku Love deterrence hora GAME no hajimari Look! It's the beginning of the game massugu na omoi ga hora Look at these straightforward thoughts ima afure hashiridasu Now I'm overflowing and I start to run
hitori nante mou I don't want to be alone any longer! iya da yo Look at me! mite yo Everything leads to you watashi no koto zenbu kimi he to tsunagaru no donna kako mo mirai mo zutto No matter the past or the future, forever zutto…. And ever…. kono deai ga sekai wo kaeru This encounter will change the world houkago CLASS ni ima wa futari After school in the classroom kamisama ga kureta CHANCE yo Now just the two of us, This is a chance given by God jikan wa tada sugite yuku Time merely passes by kitto kono mama I'm sure that if this goes on futari wa sudoori We'll pass each other by senaka awase de With our backs facing each other hanarete yuku…. We move apart I love you todoite kono omoi I love you; I hope these thoughts reach you kitto itsuka wa kanau yo ne I'm sure one day it'll come true konna kimochi setsuna sugiru no Such feelings are too painful onegai tomete… Please stop… koi no yokushiryoku Love deterrence Once Sayaka was done, she slowly looked up to meet her S/O’s face and see if he was satisfied with her performance.
...Only to realize Classes 78, 77-B and Kaede’s class were all present and had come into the room without her noticing.
Everyone began clapping, and it only intensified when S/O stood up and they clapped even harder.
Sayaka stood in awe, her face flushing red while the the rest of the band bowed.
(Sayaka) “U-Um...Thank you all!”
(Ibuki) “You didn’t invite these guys did you? I thought we were only performing for S/O!”
(Kaede) “D-Don’t look at me!”
(Mahiru) “Oh, I did. I thought if we were doing a song our classes should see! After all we’re all friends!”
(Shuichi) “Er...as much as a nice thought that is, that song was specifically written for S/O only...”
(Mahiru) “Oh. O-OH. Did I just...?”
(Hiyoko) “Psh, way to screw the pooch on that one...”
Once the crowds began to thin out, S/O went up to a still blushing Sayaka.
(S/O) “Sayaka, that was a beautiful song! I’m really blessed to have someone like you write a song that passionate for me!”
She snapped out of it, and smiled back at S/O, shaking her head.
(Sayaka) “It wasn’t just me ya know. Rise, Paz and everyone in the back here made it possible! I...”
She looked down, too embarrassed to meet their eyes.
(Sayaka) “I just wanted to give you something that you might have a nice memory with...”
(Ibuki & Kaede) “Baaaawwww!”
(Hiyoko) “Bah, you two are a bunch of fuckin broads! You two talk that mushy shit out...oh and happy birthday. Come on, Mahiru.”
Mahiru nodded and bowed before leaving with Hiyoko.
(S/O) “Hey, let’s go out to eat tonight! It’s the least I can do for you after that!”
Sayaka nodded happily and went out with S/O.
(Ibuki) “W-Wait, do we have to clean up the mess?”
(Shuichi) “I say we should just give them the freebie here. It IS a special day for them after all...”
(Kaede) “Shuichi, how come you don’t do anything like that for me?”
(Shuichi) “Wha-YOU’RE THE ULTIMATE PIANIST, WHAT DO YOU THINK I COULD DO?!”
(Ibuki)[Muttering] “Investigate why your ass is about to be put in the doghouse...”

problem rant shitpost im so sorry in advance if you read all of this
so i have a friend, Nate, who is 3 years older than me (i’m 18) whom i’ve known for several years and i share many mutual close friends with. Nate is very charismatic and attractive and when i first met him, i really liked him and even developed a crush on him. in the beginning of our friendship we got really close really quickly and i started to notice that he jokingly made fun of me a lot, and as we got closer, he would make jokes about things that were more and more personal and not things that I was okay with him joking about. he also would sometimes try to compare our problems and tell me that my problems were insignificant compared to his. but when he was nice, he was really sweet and would put his arm around me and act really flirty, compliment me, things like that. one day i was really sad about something and we were hanging out alone and he picked my chin up and said “you deserve to feel better than you’re feeling right now” and i was pretty sure he was going to kiss me but he hesitated and then later apologized and said “sorry i realize that that’s something that guys should only do with someone they’re dating”. he proceeded to send me so many mixed messages and make fun of me even more often and generally cause me a lot of distress, so i stopped hanging out with him alone, made up excuses not to hang out with him, and kind of closed myself off bc i was tired of being hurt. fast forward a couple of years (this was about 6 months ago), i’m in a committed happy relationship (1+1/2 yrs at that point), i see him all the time bc he works at a local food store, we’ve started hanging out again in groups, i thought things were actually going well and that we could be friends again. then one time he started to make fun of me a little so i asked him why he does that, to which he said “i do it bc i’m flirting with you, and every time i do it, it’s me flirting with you”. so i reminded him that i have a bf and am not interested, to which he said “i know the ship has sailed for you”. fast forward to now, i hung out with him in a group twice this past week and he’s once again begun to make fun of me to the point of it not being funny. then tonight, I was sitting next to him and one of our friends was trying to tell us about a serious issue he was having and Nate kept interrupting with things totally unrelated and not really significant. he also moved closer to me and I caught him trying to put his arm around me out of nowhere. i asked him to let our friend finish talking and he started making fun of me, i tried to brush it off and turn back to our other friends saying “i know that mom and dad are fighting but i promise i’m listening”, to which Nate said “oh good i ended up with you? my life must suck” so i gave him a really strong look and he said “hey you had your chance, that ship sailed out of the dock sooo fast” and i was kind of upset with his behavior so i moved to sit with my other friends instead of next to him. a few minutes later, he suddenly said “i have to go” and got up and practically ran away. i know for a fact that he has mental health issues, possibly a personality disorder, and i would feel really bad if i went off on him but he’s been so rude to me and others and it really bugs me that he constantly plays the game of ‘who’s worse off, i bet it’s me not you’ with everyone around him. it’s a tough situation because i don’t even know whether or not to confront him about his behavior- he’s starting therapy this week and i think maybe it would be better for him to work it out with a professional. i’m just tired of getting my hopes up about him possibly having changed/matured and then getting the same exact behavior. for anyone who made it through this, advice and thoughts would be much appreciated. that’s all for now folks thanks for listening

before I go watch the last season, i just wanna say thank you, jules. i never got the courage to talk to you off anon but i want you to know that you are really important to this fandom, you inspired me with your posts, fics, headcanons, even your shitposts, dudeee you need to get lots of those in the making when the fandom blows up today. (1/3)
i can see you’re an awesome and really thoughtful person, i hope you get a blast tonight while watching s8 and wish the fandom don’t disturbe your mood whatever it happens in the end, whatever side “wins” or “loses”, i wanna let you know you’ll overcome it. (2/3) 
also, my last wish for christmas and kl is can they just talk?? and fix their miscommunication problems?? and make peace with their past and stop acting like idiots????? like be good friends, go form those turbo wings like the soulmates they are and then hug after battle? ps: laith was, is and always will be the superior ship name, ty. (3/3)                       
hello love, thank you so much for this thoughtful ask, it means a lot to me to hear this, especially in wake of s8. i’m so happy you got so much joy out of what i created, and i had a lot of fun creating those things. knowing i got to spread that feeling is incredible. i hope you enjoyed s8!
and yeah, im glad they did talk. they talked a lot and had some great moments this season, and again, that’s all i could ever ask for. i’ve loved watching their relationship grow and change, and i’m glad i got to take so many people on this journey with me, and i can’t wait to take them on another!

Come on its not homophobia or transphobia to call a guy mom. Sometimes its a joke sometimes its just a nickname that happened. I call one of my dads mom too. Thats not homophobic propaganda and if youre comfortable with your gender you wouldnt care. It was also a thing with gay parents for a long time to make sure they seem like they have straight parents in school etc to avoid bullying. Its not meant to harm anyone and you should stop attacking everyone for little things when you have no idea
And im sorry that was not meant as hate or anything. You are an amazing person but i feel like at this point you attack all of us all day and you seem so aggressive. Like you never really think about other peoples reason or respect their life experiences
homophobia and transphobia... is a real fucking thing that affects real people, including me--like hi yes i am not straight or cis so i really don’t know what you expect from me except to be upset seeing homophobia and transphobia in fandom, i don’t rlly know what you think you’re doin comin in to my inbox tryna school me with some gotcha moment like i don’t know what’s the what. you calling me aggressive is just so wild because i was literally not being aggressive. would you like me to be aggressive? would you prefer it if i got real fucking mean about this? 
guess what, i wasn’t attacking anyone. i was trying to educate, but refusing to listen is why i generally don’t waste my time and why i am now mad. i’m sorry that i don’t want to go into the gaalee tag and see gross fucking things in there and decided that for once maybe i would take time out of MY night after work to try and help someone understand why that’s not cute.
once again, jokes do not exist in a vacuum. im sorry that you’ve decided that fandom should be free of people being critical of content, but i’m not that way and i never will be. personally i don’t know exactly what else you’re over here talkin about in terms of me “attacking everyone” like what? are you also mad because of the ao3 shit? like i really do bite my tongue constantly when it comes to fandom nonsense and stick to my shitposts and my fics for the most part. excuse me for deciding that i didn’t wanna see homophobia tonight! 
but quite frankly if you thought my response to that post was an attack--that’s on you. that’s something you have to take and ask yourself “why am i reacting so strongly?” is it because you now need to examine how you maybe contribute to homophobia or transphobia in fandom spaces? 
also Gaara? not a real fucking person. he has no actual agency, so the choices you make in regards to him are in fact YOURS. he did not choose to be called mom--and ya know what since we’re on the topic of this: i hate boruto but Gaara literally NEVER is called mom in canon by his CHILD so jot that the fuck down thank you very much.
listen, if we don’t talk about these things, then NOTHING is going to change. I’m sorry that you don’t grasp why this was homophobic, i’m sorry that you think your experiences mean that this particular brand of homophobia is not actually homophobia--but your personal experiences do not account for the systematic violence that gay men face. end of story. gay men are constantly experiencing gendered violence. this is a complicated and nuanced discussion that i no longer have the energy for because y’all fully fucking exhaust me with how unwilling you are to listen. there are so many layers to homophobia and apparently it just isn’t clicking so really i feel like i’m just fucking mad and yelling into the void because you wanna plug up your ears and be upset cause i wasn’t happy with what’s being done
also, a final note, please consider that children referring to their parents as ‘mom and dad’ instead of ‘mom and mom’ or ‘dad and dad’ to avoid--what was that? HOMOPHOBIA! is not a cute thing it is a tool of survival

July 24 Dancitron Movie Night - Titanic
Basically everyone hated the main characters. Most of the room was disappointed in how many of them survived. Swoop seems to have never figured out that they weren’t, in fact, watching Twister.
Prowl went to a dark place after the movie. It probably doesn’t help that, after the movie, he asked to see the entire real-time two hour and forty minute CGI reconstruction of the Titanic sinking. And then sat there and watched the entire thing.
ItsyBitsySpyers 7:35 pm *Soundwave sets a folded up tarp behind himself before he gets comfortable in his usual spot. It's gonna be a long night.* FakeProwl 7:35 pm *look who's here early tonight* Bevel 7:36 pm *trundles in and to what's become her usual seat* ItsyBitsySpyers 7:36 pm *Soundwave pings Prowl hello and nods.* *And then does the same to Bevel.* Bevel 7:36 pm *waves to Soundwave and Prowl* FakeProwl 7:36 pm *nods back. very polite and professional. and cool and calm.* boomtank 7:37 pm -and Blaster is just going to wander in now- Bevel 7:38 pm *waves to Blaster* ItsyBitsySpyers 7:38 pm *Is surprised by Blaster's early appearance. Hello bob, same's the others.* boomtank 7:38 pm -tired wave to both- ((mun has to pick up Primus in about half an hour, otherwise I'd be letting Unicron do it FakeProwl 7:41 pm *Prowl's not entirely sure, as he hasn't been playing the closest attention, but this MIGHT be the best pre-movie music channel Soundwave has played thus far.* ItsyBitsySpyers 7:41 pm *There are others he'd like to play, but silly Earthlings don't always make sure their channels are functional 24/7. This one IS good though.* ((is that a specsdragon i see)) ((and say hi to primus and unicron for me o/ )) Small Furry Dragon 7:42 pm ((hi it is me)) FakeProwl 7:43 pm ((*waves)) Small Furry Dragon 7:43 pm ((I finally get to sit in ur channel and pat ur zori)) boomtank 7:43 pm ((Unicron is over my shoulder and waved at the screen Bevel 7:44 pm *has shifted to a more modern train alt mode so she fits the uniend/aligned aesthetic a bit more than usual. she's still mostly purple with blue tho because those colors are awesome fight her* ((heya ooc peeps FakeProwl 7:45 pm ((*waves at unicron too*)) ItsyBitsySpyers 7:45 pm ((starting in 15 so y'all get snacks or whatever you need)) FakeProwl 7:45 pm ((will brb with food)) FakeProwl 7:55 pm ((brb'ed with food)) Impact 7:56 pm ((Soooo, what's the movie? :3)) ItsyBitsySpyers 7:56 pm ((Titanic)) Small Furry Dragon 7:57 pm *puts out some energon cookies for the movies* *retreats to a nice corner for the duration* Bevel 7:58 pm ((i saw titanic in theater when i was teeny Impact 7:58 pm ((i've never actually seen it!)) ItsyBitsySpyers 7:59 pm *Soundwave notices cookies he didn't add to the snacks have appeared on the bar. Knowing it's been a while since Zori's had any, he calls Zori down with the others. Poor big bug is gonna probably sit there nibbling on them most of the night.* FakeProwl 7:59 pm ((i saw it during a movie day in high school. i tuned out the whole thing. probably to write fic, im sure.)) Shockwave 7:59 pm ((Ah, found the right tab. Hello there.)) Impact 7:59 pm ((I don't know if i'll last the whole movie because sleeepy)) ((at least impact already knows the titanic sinks)) ItsyBitsySpyers 7:59 pm ((OKAY SO HERE'S THE WARNINGS: I don't really know. I adore y'all but I ain't watching a 3 hour movie twice in 24 hours to screen. There's partial nudity at some point, death, classist junk, and idk what else.)) Bevel 8:00 pm ((it's the titanic story but with random ocs as the stars instead of any of the awesome real life ppl basically Impact 8:00 pm *Is immediately distracted by Zori's presence when she comes in* Zori! 3:D ItsyBitsySpyers 8:01 pm *Zori pauses with a cookie halfway to his mouth and blinks his visor. Oh! It is the Impact.* #hello FakeProwl 8:01 pm ((im not used to hearing this song without a recorder)) ItsyBitsySpyers 8:01 pm ((LOL)) Bevel 8:01 pm ((lol Impact 8:01 pm *Holds up her arms. Hugs okay?* Hi! ItsyBitsySpyers 8:01 pm ((also, a belated hi to Shockbox!)) Impact 8:01 pm ((sis remembers seeing this in theater)) ItsyBitsySpyers 8:01 pm *...Yeah, okay. He'll hug her. It's nice to still get hugs like this.* Impact 8:02 pm *hugs!* FakeProwl 8:02 pm ((ye, shockbox! it's been a while)) Small Furry Dragon 8:02 pm ((thank for subtitles! much appreciated!)) ItsyBitsySpyers 8:03 pm ((np, they're always there unless i forget - i use 'em too)) Shockwave 8:03 pm ((It has indeed! I suppose I should let you all know that I've sort of changed blogs-- I'm doing a shitposting thing now, with normal roleplaying in between.)) ItsyBitsySpyers 8:03 pm *Soundwave pulls his legs up onto the couch and prepares for what he's heard is a good cautionary tale.* Shockwave 8:04 pm *He makes an entrance, joining tonight for a reasons similar to Soundwave's motive.* Swoop 8:04 pm *RETURNS FROM THE GYM BOTH IC AND OOC FOR MAXIMUM DINO-SMELLINESS* Small Furry Dragon 8:04 pm *the dragon fluffs themselves and curls up, their snout poking out from between their paws. time to movie! and keep sneaking appreciative peeks at the Zori enjoying their cookies.* Shockwave 8:05 pm *Oh good, everything is pungent.* FakeProwl 8:05 pm *Gives considering look to Soundwave's pulled up legs. If HE can get away with it...* boomtank 8:05 pm -Blaster is on the OTHER side of the room when he spots Shockwave- FakeProwl 8:05 pm *... No. Better not. Slouches forward and chinhands.* Swoop 8:05 pm *literally rolls head over stupid ptero-butt in front of the screen* ItsyBitsySpyers 8:05 pm //Down in front!// Impact 8:05 pm *plops next to Zori* Bevel, come sit with us! Swoop 8:06 pm :V Shockwave 8:06 pm *Once again, that particular Blaster seems strongly dedicated to avoiding him. Shockwave has grown accustomed to this.* Swoop 8:06 pm *the crest doesn't go down???? that far??* ItsyBitsySpyers 8:06 pm *Soundwave nods at Shockwave, then huffs, amused by the tiny little swimming thing.* FakeProwl 8:06 pm *Oh. Swoop.* Shockwave 8:06 pm *Shockwave returns that nod and takes his place.* FakeProwl 8:06 pm *murmurs to Soundwave* How much combat is in this movie? *because it doesn't exactly look like a war movie* ItsyBitsySpyers 8:06 pm [[Claws to yourself today, Swoop, or you will go out again.]] Swoop 8:06 pm Me Swoop am better door than window :> boomtank 8:07 pm -May be a bit biased against Shockwaves- Bevel 8:07 pm *considers Impact and Zori a moment before getting up and moving as carefully as her bulky butt will allow, hope no one small is sitting behind them* Swoop 8:07 pm *rolls on his back and kicks his tiny stupid bird feet in the air* ItsyBitsySpyers 8:07 pm @Prowl: (txt): ...Not combat movie. That, next week. Impact 8:07 pm Spooky FakeProwl 8:07 pm *mutters* Which means Swoop is going to be insufferable. *quiet sigh* Shockwave 8:07 pm *Fairly biased, Shockwave would think. They are on opposing sides, though Shockwave can't imagine what another version of himself did to inspire a revulsion quite that intense.* Small Furry Dragon 8:07 pm *someone small is too busy having their vision blocked by Swoop. hope Impact and Bevel don't mind a furry friend coming to join them.* Swoop 8:07 pm This floaty movie. Us go OUT and do floaty thing instead 😃 😃 😃 Shockwave 8:07 pm *...Not that he's very motivated to find out.* ItsyBitsySpyers 8:08 pm *Zori pats the dragon hello. It's nice to have company.* Bevel 8:08 pm *furry friends are definitely allowed* Swoop 8:08 pm in space "snoop vision" keheheh snoop boomtank 8:08 pm -Let's just say alot- ItsyBitsySpyers 8:08 pm @Prowl: (txt): Will call distraction tactic if needed later. Swoop 8:08 pm *is the distraction tactic bird? let it be bird. he wants to see bird* Shockwave 8:09 pm *Well, if drama needs to happen, the mun now knows who to direct attention to.* ItsyBitsySpyers 8:09 pm *Maybe.* Small Furry Dragon 8:09 pm *the dragon purrs and curls back up again. this is much better!* FakeProwl 8:09 pm Appreciated. Impact 8:09 pm *Furry friends are great!* Swoop 8:09 pm *literally only puts up with these boring movies for the chance at making bird laugh with awful jokes* Bevel 8:09 pm *zori is big enough that petting him would not require her to be extremely careful hmmmm* Impact 8:09 pm eeeew wet stuff ItsyBitsySpyers 8:09 pm [[Disgusting.]] Swoop 8:10 pm Keheheh Sludge come back to cave, look like that! Sometimes :> Shockwave 8:10 pm *Shockwave finds himself quite intrigued by the small furry dragon, aware that one of his alternates specializes in dragon-esque creatures.* ItsyBitsySpyers 8:10 pm [[As he said. Disgusting.]] Shockwave 8:10 pm *He just stares at it while listening to the movie.* Swoop 8:11 pm Sludge pretty gross Him name SLUDGE keheheh boomtank 8:11 pm ((annnnd I gotta go pick up Primus Swoop 8:11 pm Because Him dumb and also smelly gross keheheheh Small Furry Dragon 8:12 pm *the dragon gently ignores the staring.

Him too big keheh You shoot one side, him roll other side into new puddle! Impact 8:13 pm Dun dun! ItsyBitsySpyers 8:13 pm [[...She must be ancient for a human.]] Swoop 8:13 pm OH!

Older humans have extra baggy skin. It has a lot of folds. Impact 8:14 pm They get wrinkly! Swoop 8:15 pm Her in wheelchair Shockwave 8:15 pm *Lack of fighting ability does not quite inspire disinterest, but it may lead his curiosity to run out faster than usual.* Swoop 8:15 pm Him Chip have wheelchair Wheeljack say Him make BETTER one but, keheh, Chip say no no no thank you! Him say no exploding, thanks kehehehhehehh Shockwave 8:16 pm *Though he ponders the small dragon's origin, he turns his focus back to the film after not too long.* Impact 8:16 pm *giggles* a dish! Small Furry Dragon 8:17 pm *whispers* Well-plated food can be pretty. Prettier than naked humans. *preens* Swoop 8:17 pm When tornado attack, Soundwave? ItsyBitsySpyers 8:17 pm [[No tornadoes. It is a sea adventure.]] Impact 8:17 pm naked humans look weird Swoop 8:17 pm SEA tornato *tornado Impact 8:18 pm i like food better! ItsyBitsySpyers 8:18 pm [[-Why- does their skin fold?]] Small Furry Dragon 8:18 pm I don't understand why they have fur on their heads, but nowhere else. It's weird. *gapes in a dragon smile* I like food better too. ItsyBitsySpyers 8:18 pm [[Is it a protective measure?]] FakeProwl 8:19 pm *ooh. forensic reconstruction of a wreck.* Impact 8:19 pm I think it stops being stretchy so it wrinkles! Shockwave 8:20 pm *That part seemed actually educational, if a bit...crudely presented.* ItsyBitsySpyers 8:20 pm [[Strange.]] Swoop 8:21 pm That a long time ItsyBitsySpyers 8:21 pm *Slow lean.* Bevel 8:21 pm Oh this is a human historical record. Impact 8:21 pm this movie has pretty music! ItsyBitsySpyers 8:22 pm *Leans forward. Is that a--* [[Old Earth vehicles. Fascinating.]] Swoop 8:22 pm When them fight each other for rock?

Swoop 8:23 pm That boat not so tough Shockwave 8:23 pm *"God himself could not sink this ship," Ah. Blatant irony.* Swoop 8:23 pm Seaspray boat. Him not tough. ItsyBitsySpyers 8:23 pm *Soundwave looks over at Prowl and resumes his slow tip in that direction.* [[Why?]] FakeProwl 8:24 pm Imagine me turning into one of those. Small Furry Dragon 8:24 pm *the dragon blinks at the "health inspection"* What an odd thing. Windchill 8:24 pm (( Jfc this film. )) Bevel 8:24 pm I went to an Earth before this. It was cool. Swoop 8:24 pm Her hat big FakeProwl 8:24 pm *cringes at the ship horn* ItsyBitsySpyers 8:24 pm //Y'know Seaspray useta be a Wrecker, right, Swoop?// Windchill 8:24 pm *Slinks in, late as usual.* Swoop 8:24 pm Seaspray sucks. Me Swoop could snap in half. No hands! Glub glub ItsyBitsySpyers 8:25 pm *Soundwave tries to imagine Prowl as one of those cars.* Swoop 8:25 pm *is here to do two things: impress Bird and murder fish* *sadly, neither are present* Windchill 8:25 pm *Takes a seat near the back.* *points* Horses. ItsyBitsySpyers 8:26 pm [[They may be outdated, but they have an appeal.]] Small Furry Dragon 8:27 pm *the dragon is more confused now* Lice? ItsyBitsySpyers 8:27 pm *Rumble waves over his shoulder at Windchill.* Bevel 8:27 pm Bugs. Impact 8:27 pm bugs that go on heads! FakeProwl 8:27 pm They're so hollow, though. All Earth vehicles are, of course, but these are even worse. Windchill 8:27 pm *Windchill appears to be thinking.* FakeProwl 8:28 pm The engine block is solid enough, but I feel like the rest of it would snap in half trying to transform. Bevel 8:28 pm You would need a really small bot to make a car like those. Windchill 8:28 pm *It's an illusion. He points at Rumble.* Not-horse. Swoop 8:28 pm Them run over little boat next time :V Bevel 8:28 pm *holds her hands up* Really thin. Windchill 8:28 pm *And that's that.* ItsyBitsySpyers 8:28 pm [[He manages well enough.]] Gestures to himself. Tags it as humor. FakeProwl 8:28 pm *glances at Soundwave.

Small Furry Dragon 8:42 pm It's a pretty ship. Swoop 8:42 pm Everyone sucks. When tornado come, Soundwave? Windchill 8:42 pm I could be a lot warmer. Swoop 8:42 pm KAHAH! Small Furry Dragon 8:43 pm I suppose this is more dramatic for people without wings. Whirl 8:43 pm *nods* Or people who aren't waterproof. Swoop 8:43 pm What them mad for? 😕 Whirl 8:43 pm Pfft, way to stick up for the guy. Seems a bit too little, too late. Impact 8:44 pm *scoffs* Swoop 8:44 pm Her Carly beat Him up Windchill 8:44 pm *Whispers.* Impact 8:44 pm 'women and machinery" WHAT A DUMB ItsyBitsySpyers 8:44 pm *Catches the mumble and thinks back to Prowl 's request back when he had the pipe through his head. ... Not a thought for now. Saves that for later.* Small Furry Dragon 8:44 pm *the dragon just bares their teeth* Humans are weird. Windchill 8:44 pm Whirl. Sit on me. Bevel 8:44 pm Humans are dumb. Whirl 8:44 pm *whispers back* No. I'll put my feet on you, at best. I don't do the sitting. FakeProwl 8:45 pm Why did she wait until AFTER he'd been handcuffed to come up with the story? Whirl 8:45 pm Exactly! Windchill 8:45 pm I'll take what I can get. Whirl 8:45 pm You'd think she could've stopped them right away. Windchill 8:45 pm Because she's selfish and stupid. Bevel 8:45 pm Maybe she was upset about almost dying? Small Furry Dragon 8:45 pm She could have bitten someone. He could have bitten someone. Whirl 8:45 pm THAT's no big deal at all! FakeProwl 8:46 pm Ah. Of course. Shock. Impact 8:46 pm oh! the mirror! ItsyBitsySpyers 8:46 pm [[And there's no tornado, Swoop.

Who knows.* FakeProwl 8:47 pm *mutters* For the people who were paying attention. Impact 8:47 pm I was paying attention! ItsyBitsySpyers 8:47 pm [[Except the ability to make her own choices, apparently.]] Whirl 8:47 pm If my feet get cold, I'm taking them back. FakeProwl 8:47 pm If there's nothing he couldn't give her then why doesn't he give her a little bit of dignity. Windchill 8:47 pm Okay. I've been warned. Small Furry Dragon 8:47 pm Where I come from, girls eat men who try to control them. Whirl 8:48 pm That's a good way of handling that sort of thing. People who wanna control you. ItsyBitsySpyers 8:48 pm =I approve.= Whirl 8:48 pm I suppose maiming will do, if eating isn't an option? Bevel 8:48 pm Eat the rich jerk, Rose. Impact 8:49 pm *giggles madly because eating the rich* Whirl 8:49 pm Why the hell would she bring it up if she doesn't wanna talk to him about it? Small Furry Dragon 8:49 pm Our goddess did that, they say. Well, ate a god. I'm not sure he was rich. *wiggles wings in kind of a shrug* I guess we're not made to be controlled. Windchill 8:50 pm Crush her hand. Damn it. Whirl 8:50 pm Nice. I don't think my goddess ever ate anyone. Not really her schtick. What's yours called? Windchill 8:50 pm She's almost as bad as her beau. Whirl 8:50 pm *antenna pins back briefly and he shoots a Look at Windchill* FakeProwl 8:50 pm They're obnoxious and I can't stand either of them. Windchill 8:51 pm *Side eyes Whirl* *What.* Impact 8:51 pm boooooobs Small Furry Dragon 8:51 pm We only have the one. She's just the Goddess. I think the Cousins have a name for her, but my kind doesn't. Whirl 8:52 pm Huh. Interesting. Windchill 8:52 pm *Whatever, then.* Bevel 8:52 pm Rude. ItsyBitsySpyers 8:52 pm [[Two minutes ago she was insulting him.]] *Shakes his helm.* Swoop 8:53 pm Them hats big :> Like bird kehehehehh Bird with flowers Bevel 8:53 pm *giggles* Whirl 8:53 pm *peers* Is that the lady?

Voices are easier to change. Whirl 8:54 pm *speaking of voices, he heard a familiar one earlier, and swivels his helm around; is Ravage at the bar?* ItsyBitsySpyers 8:54 pm [[A squid boat? A boat with squid?]] Whirl 8:54 pm Smell's the best way to do it. ItsyBitsySpyers 8:54 pm *Ravage is ON the bar.* Windchill 8:54 pm Smell? Impact 8:54 pm a boat for catching squid? ItsyBitsySpyers 8:54 pm [[...They are already making plans?]] Windchill 8:54 pm You should smell me. I might be stinky. Swoop 8:55 pm Kehehhehehheheh Small Furry Dragon 8:55 pm For catching squid, I think. We have them for the water worms. Whirl 8:55 pm I already have. I more or less always am. *withdraws his legs and stands up* You smell like ice and earth. Which is... kind of weird. But makes sense. 'Scuse me. Windchill 8:55 pm Lame. ItsyBitsySpyers 8:55 pm *Cringing so hard. Gross human fluids.* Swoop 8:55 pm KEHEHEHHHEHHH Windchill 8:55 pm You should sniff Swoop then. FakeProwl 8:55 pm She's switched out one man who tells her what not to do for another man who doesn't listen when she says she doesn't want to do something. Swoop 8:55 pm *loves this* Impact 8:55 pm eeeew Swoop 8:55 pm *best part of the movie* Whirl 8:56 pm I'm more or less always smelling everyone, Windchill. Shockwave 8:56 pm *Really did not enjoy that scene.* Windchill 8:56 pm I mean get in REAL CLOSE. Small Furry Dragon 8:56 pm No, you eat insects. ItsyBitsySpyers 8:56 pm [[She has terrible taste.]] Whirl 8:56 pm *and sliiides on up to the bar* Hey barkeep. I think I might owe you? FakeProwl 8:56 pm She doesn't have taste. The first man, I'm sure, was thrust upon her. The second one thrust himself upon her. Windchill 8:57 pm I like this lady the best, I think. ItsyBitsySpyers 8:57 pm *Ravage crosses his paws and stares at Whirl.* =Little bit. You have payment?= Swoop 8:57 pm Penguins Windchill 8:57 pm Nah, not penguins. Small Furry Dragon 8:57 pm Mealworms, I think, Swoop. They're tasteless. ItsyBitsySpyers 8:57 pm [[She would be best served abandoning them both and enjoying her time on the ship alone.]] Windchill 8:57 pm Penguins work for their dinner. FakeProwl 8:58 pm Taste has nothing to do with it. She's afforded no agency. The one thing in this entire movie she chose to do for herself, she was prevented from completing. Swoop 8:58 pm Yuh-huh penguins black and white ItsyBitsySpyers 8:58 pm [[A fair point.]] Swoop 8:58 pm waddle Windchill 8:58 pm ...So am I! Whirl 8:58 pm Nothing fancy this time. Just an exchange. *whispers* Swiped this from Swerve's. *and he procures a bottle of what passes for Cybertronian wine; nothing fancy, but fine enough* ItsyBitsySpyers 8:58 pm //Wooooow. Cold.// Windchill 8:58 pm Maybe I was a penguin all along. Swoop 8:58 pm Maybe! Windchill 8:59 pm I can waddle too, if I want. Swoop 8:59 pm DO it Bevel 8:59 pm She got another pretty dress. Windchill 8:59 pm Okay! Impact 8:59 pm *reads up on Molly Brown on her tablet instead of watching* ItsyBitsySpyers 8:59 pm *Ravage sniffs the bottle. He doesn't have Ratbat's nose for fuel - it's made for tracking other things - but he can smell it well enough.* Impact 8:59 pm Molly Brown was cool! Small Furry Dragon 8:59 pm His hair's even shiny like some sort of beetle! Doesn't he clean himself? Windchill 8:59 pm *He gets up, and sidles around behind the seats, waddling back and forth. Proof.* Bevel 9:00 pm *leans over to read over Impact's shoulder* Swoop 9:00 pm *EXPLODES laughing at Windchill, complete with random flailing* Impact 9:00 pm ((there was this titanic game we used to play)) ItsyBitsySpyers 9:00 pm =Good.= *Grabs it in his tail claws and hops behind the bar* Windchill 9:00 pm *Honk honks.* Impact 9:00 pm ((it was in french, we sucked at it and kept getting shot)) Swoop 9:00 pm *chirps* Whirl 9:00 pm *nods* Good. Any chance I can get something tonight, and settle my tab next week? FakeProwl 9:00 pm ((> titanic > getting shot what kind of titanic)) Windchill 9:01 pm *Slows just enough to eye the film.* Gossip. My specialty. ItsyBitsySpyers 9:01 pm =Yes. You are good for it.= Whirl 9:01 pm Nice. The usual, if you don't mind. Impact 9:01 pm ((you're supposed to solve a mystery or something before it sinks, i think?)) ItsyBitsySpyers 9:01 pm *It'll be up in less than a minute.* Windchill 9:02 pm *Sits down, making a pained expression.* *What nonsense.* ItsyBitsySpyers 9:03 pm [[...What is that goo.]] Windchill 9:03 pm Eggs. ItsyBitsySpyers 9:03 pm [[...They're very small.]] Small Furry Dragon 9:04 pm Are they bug's eggs? Windchill 9:04 pm I think they're fish? FakeProwl 9:04 pm *sounds like a miserable way to exist* Bevel 9:04 pm *sounds almost enjoyable to her, with less sleeping under bridges* Windchill 9:04 pm *An optic narrows. He's sure he has everything worth knowing about caviar in his Earth database somewhere, but he can't be bothered.* Small Furry Dragon 9:05 pm *wiggles wings in another shrug* We have bigger fish where I come from. ItsyBitsySpyers 9:05 pm *Is quite content having somewhere to stay now.* *Two somewheres, in fact.* Whirl 9:05 pm *has more or less had his fair share of sleeping in streets and under bridges. But. Well. He might have to get used to that again* *he's gonna take his drink as soon as it's done and return to his seat* Bevel 9:06 pm *technically has two places, but considers Blurr's ship her current address* Windchill 9:06 pm *Let's not start a conversation on horrible places we've all slept.* Impact 9:06 pm It's a party FakeProwl 9:08 pm *she says she can't do it and he straight-up ignores her and pulls her closer.* Windchill 9:08 pm That looks exhausting. Bevel 9:08 pm *nods her head along to the music* ItsyBitsySpyers 9:08 pm *And now she's said to stop and he hasn't.* Bevel 9:08 pm This looks fun. Whirl 9:08 pm *he likes his definition of a party more, at least; hunkers down over his drink like a horrid gargoyle* Swoop 9:08 pm Keheh them tap tap tap tap! Windchill 9:09 pm (( I'm sorry all I can think of atm is my coworker who got drunk, went hiking and decided to Irish tap dance when he got up there. Busted his ankle.)) FakeProwl 9:09 pm *had to turn his audials down to listen to this scene* Swoop 9:09 pm ((Sounds like a fun coworker)) Whirl 9:09 pm ((I REMEMBER THAT(( Windchill 9:09 pm (( My new favourite story. )) Swoop 9:09 pm Him Slag drink like that keheheh Bevel 9:10 pm ... Shockwave 9:10 pm *Being that this film is not historically accurate in any way, these scenes are quite boring to him.* Whirl 9:10 pm En pointe. Nice. Swoop 9:10 pm En pointe ItsyBitsySpyers 9:10 pm [[Impressive.]] Bevel 9:10 pm On point? Swoop 9:10 pm *is a little parrot* Shockwave 9:10 pm ((..I shouldn't say in /any way/, but you get what i mean.)) Whirl 9:10 pm The way she was standing, on the tips of her toes. Kind of difficult for most dancers to do. Impact 9:10 pm on tippy toes! FakeProwl 9:10 pm ((the boat eventually sinks. that's about where the similarities end.)) Bevel 9:10 pm Oh. Impact 9:10 pm humans can dance like that but it hurts Swoop 9:10 pm *immediately scrambles up to his feet to try* Impact 9:10 pm it looks pretty though ItsyBitsySpyers 9:11 pm ((some of the passengers in the latter parts are real people iirc)) Bevel 9:11 pm *watches Swoop* Small Furry Dragon 9:11 pm I think I prefer to dance on all four feet. Whirl 9:11 pm *also watches this* Swoop 9:11 pm *has borb feet for grabbing, not tippy toeing* Whirl 9:11 pm I don t dance, myself. Windchill 9:11 pm Me neither. FakeProwl 9:11 pm *dryly* How long until the tornado? Impact 9:11 pm 😮 Windchill 9:11 pm That was it. Bevel 9:11 pm Eat him. Small Furry Dragon 9:11 pm *hisses* Eat. Him. ItsyBitsySpyers 9:11 pm //Punch his fraggin' lights out.// Impact 9:12 pm eat him! Swoop 9:12 pm *still, he is athletic and mimics the way she slide up her feet until he is on the tips of his toes* Whirl 9:12 pm Hear, hear. *toasts* ItsyBitsySpyers 9:12 pm *Frenzy applauds Swoop* Swoop 9:12 pm *unfortunately, he gets excited and that turns into a wobble which gets hm back on the balls of his feet* aww keheh Bevel 9:12 pm 😞 Whirl 9:12 pm Hey! You did it, birdo. *toasts to that, as well* Windchill 9:12 pm *Claps.* Small Furry Dragon 9:12 pm Wow! Nice job, Swoop! Swoop 9:12 pm *hops to get up on his toes, stays there for a 1 2 3 count, then hops back flat footed* *TA DA!!!* Bevel 9:12 pm *claps for Swoop* Swoop 9:12 pm *poses* Impact 9:12 pm *claps for swoop!* Windchill 9:13 pm Boo hoo. Swoop 9:13 pm *is the weiner* ItsyBitsySpyers 9:13 pm [[...So that is why the mother is forcing her into this.]] Shockwave 9:13 pm *He's confused by the clapping, he was focusing on the film.* *Goes back to the film, though.* Swoop 9:13 pm *bends over to touch his toes, as if to check on them* Windchill 9:13 pm Maybe if they learned any real skills they wouldn't have to be dependent on other people. Bevel 9:13 pm Yes. Whirl 9:13 pm Yep. Impact 9:13 pm mmhmm Bevel 9:14 pm Sell everything but the pretty dresses. ItsyBitsySpyers 9:14 pm *Has like no sympathy.* Bevel 9:14 pm *she has priorities* Small Furry Dragon 9:14 pm Seamstresses are hard workers. I respect them more than I respect that mother.

Bevel 9:14 pm *sparkling dresses she could never wear being one of them* FakeProwl 9:14 pm *pities the girl who's surrounded by controlling people. her rescuer included.* Windchill 9:14 pm *Blows in Swoop's general direction, just in case it knocks him over.* FakeProwl 9:15 pm She should have jumped. Swoop 9:15 pm *is way too used to being body slammed for a gust of wind to matter* ItsyBitsySpyers 9:15 pm *She is selling her creation to keep her high caste things. He hopes the creator is first to drown.* Swoop 9:15 pm *turns this pretzel'd mess into a handstand instead* Windchill 9:15 pm *She doesn't deserve to have a creation.* Whirl 9:16 pm She should've. Swoop 9:16 pm *walks around on his hands* Whirl 9:16 pm *toasts Prowl, as well, and drinks yet again* Windchill 9:16 pm *Sniffs.

ItsyBitsySpyers 9:19 pm \\PIT YEAH.\\ Bevel 9:19 pm There should be less romance and more combat. FakeProwl 9:20 pm He pretends to tell her that she has agency in choosing her future, when what he's doing is ordering her to choose him. Whirl 9:20 pm Romance AND combat. *points at Bevel* At the same time. Windchill 9:20 pm I like that idea. boomtank 9:20 pm ((back Bevel 9:20 pm Romance is boring. FakeProwl 9:20 pm Could we skip both and just have a solid mystery. Windchill 9:20 pm *shrugs.* I like romance fine. Swoop 9:21 pm Them steal ship and pirate movie next time :V Whirl 9:21 pm I'll take a decent film noir, if that's whatcha mean. We should watch The Maltese Falcon sometime. Swoop 9:21 pm Falcon is bird :> boomtank 9:21 pm -hasn't been paying attention- Windchill 9:21 pm Sure is. Swoop 9:21 pm Maltese is...... dog? JUMP!! Whirl 9:21 pm Damn, Swoop, you right. ItsyBitsySpyers 9:21 pm [[He will look for a mystery soon. And investigate the falcon movie.]] Swoop 9:21 pm Me Swoop am right lots of times :> Windchill 9:21 pm Didn't she have a traumatic experience on the railings of this damned boat already? Swoop 9:22 pm Him Grimlock say Me Swoop am smarty pants boomtank 9:22 pm -looks up at this part- Small Furry Dragon 9:22 pm That can't feel like flying. boomtank 9:22 pm -stares- Swoop 9:22 pm that not flying????????????????? JUUUUMMMPPP then fly boomtank 9:22 pm Isn't that dangerous? Whirl 9:22 pm It really can't. Swoop 9:22 pm jump THEN fly Bevel 9:22 pm No that is falling. Swoop 9:22 pm same thing keheheh Small Furry Dragon 9:22 pm Flying is gliding with more falling, but also more going up. At least, that's what the hatchling instructors claimed! Windchill 9:23 pm ...What? Whirl 9:23 pm Maybe for you lot it is. *preens* I'm a HELICOPTER. Bevel 9:23 pm *bored now* Windchill 9:23 pm *That doesn't sound right.* Bevel 9:23 pm I can fly! Swoop 9:23 pm whirlybird :> Windchill 9:23 pm Some of us have engines. ItsyBitsySpyers 9:23 pm *Soundwave places a :| on his screen. Then he rolls the eyes.* Swoop 9:23 pm NOW them rescue old lady from smashed house because tornado attack her Dog okay Whirl 9:23 pm I have an engine, too. I've got two rotors arrays and one jet turbine. Windchill 9:24 pm I know you do. Small Furry Dragon 9:24 pm I don't think I can go as fast as you all do. Whirl 9:24 pm ((SWOOP UR KILLING ME HAHAHA)) ((TWISTER)) FakeProwl 9:24 pm Finally. Talk about the wreck more. That part is interesting. Swoop 9:24 pm ((GOOD)) ((I'M KILLING ME TOO)) ((WE DIE TOGETHER)) Whirl 9:24 pm Well, in your defense, you use analogue flight, right? With the flapping? Windchill 9:24 pm Let's pretend to know a thing about art, it's in the script. boomtank 9:25 pm -huffs and goes back to reading. More interesting- ItsyBitsySpyers 9:25 pm [[That's not a heart. It's a triangle.]] Small Furry Dragon 9:25 pm With the flapping, yes. *extends a wing to demonstrate* Whirl 9:25 pm *nods* Yeah! You might not be fast, but analogue flight's pretty neat. Windchill 9:25 pm I can do that. Whirl 9:25 pm Second-best thing to rotors. Windchill 9:25 pm *shakes his head in slow motion.* *It looks even stupider when he does it.* FakeProwl 9:26 pm ... The picture of her was found inside the safe. Windchill 9:26 pm Was that a dime? FakeProwl 9:26 pm Which means her fiance is going to discover the picture. Small Furry Dragon 9:26 pm You think so? It seems so normal to- okay they're taking their clothes off, I'm not going to look. Windchill 9:26 pm I suppose it was worth more then. *points* Boobs. Small Furry Dragon 9:26 pm Zori, may I hide my eyes behind your legs? ItsyBitsySpyers 9:27 pm *Holds a claw up over the dragon's eyes.* Small Furry Dragon 9:27 pm Thank you, Zori. Swoop 9:27 pm Boobs? Whirl 9:27 pm *perks up and swivels his head around* Oh. Hey, Professor. Didn't see ya. ItsyBitsySpyers 9:27 pm #hi *He's hiding with the dragon and Bevel.* Windchill 9:27 pm *He gestures, as if cupping boobs on his own chassis.* Her chest. Swoop 9:27 pm *mimics the gesture with ZERO understanding on his face* Whirl 9:28 pm *stares at this display* Windchill 9:28 pm *Does it again. Make them bounce.* Swoop 9:28 pm *cocks head* Windchill 9:28 pm Boobs. Whirl 9:28 pm Do you have a point. Windchill 9:28 pm Me? Swoop 9:28 pm *looks at Windchill* *looks at Whirl* *looks at Windchill* ??? Bevel 9:29 pm *will be a good barrier between boobs and robots* Swoop 9:29 pm *nope he's got nothing* Whirl 9:29 pm *looks at Swoop, obviously just as confused* I don't know what to do with this creature. Windchill 9:29 pm I just like boobs. FakeProwl 9:29 pm She has lead a sad, sterile life, if that was the most erotic moment of it. I suppose that's not a terrible surprise, given her fiance. Whirl 9:29 pm Eroticism's overrated. Windchill 9:30 pm *snorts.* Small Furry Dragon 9:30 pm ...Is it safe? Whirl 9:30 pm You know you're living life when you've set yourself on fire, somehow. Windchill 9:30 pm It's not so bad. Bevel 9:30 pm Yeah. Swoop 9:30 pm When Wheeljack want to find Dinobots, him shake goodie box Whirl 9:30 pm I'm sure. *takes a nice long pull* Swoop 9:31 pm ME SWOOP on fire ALL THE TIME :V In face Windchill 9:31 pm You are? *Squints.* Swoop 9:31 pm YAH Me Swoop can do fire RIGHT NOW :V Small Furry Dragon 9:31 pm *peeks out from behind Zori's claw* Windchill 9:31 pm Not in Soundwave's place. ItsyBitsySpyers 9:31 pm [[No firebreathing.]] Swoop 9:31 pm Little fire *holds fingertips sooooo close together* FakeProwl 9:32 pm ... Where does she think she's running? This is a ship. Small Furry Dragon 9:32 pm Swoop, I am flammable. Windchill 9:32 pm Do it outside. ItsyBitsySpyers 9:32 pm [[No. There is an organic here.]] FakeProwl 9:32 pm She should have sent Jack out of the room alone and stayed in her room by herself. Whirl 9:32 pm It's probably more fun that way. Swoop 9:32 pm :< Windchill 9:32 pm She doesn't care about consequences. Like me. 'Cept I'm better at running away from them. boomtank 9:33 pm ..... Whirl 9:33 pm Poor thing's desperate to live a little. It's why she does dumb things, like try to run away on a ship. And fling herself at the first person to throw her a shred of sympathy. Small Furry Dragon 9:33 pm I don't think they should be running around fire in long clothes. Whirl 9:33 pm She's miserable. Miserable people do dumb stuff. Windchill 9:33 pm ...This is true. FakeProwl 9:33 pm Oh yes. Run around the pumping piston in a long, flowing dress. ItsyBitsySpyers 9:33 pm [[Her antics are endangering multiple people.]] [[And he is encouraging them.]] Whirl 9:33 pm I'm not defending them. I'm explaining them. Small Furry Dragon 9:33 pm I've got long fur, and the docents chastised me for running in the kitchens. Windchill 9:33 pm She's not smart enough to have thought about it nor care. Swoop 9:33 pm Them watch The Shining in car and then tornado attack tear up movie screen Windchill 9:34 pm ...Why The Shining? Whirl 9:34 pm I think they're just as annoying as you lot do. Swoop 9:34 pm Carly say Shining scary movie ItsyBitsySpyers 9:34 pm //That'd be a blessin' at this point, Swoop.// [[He knows you are explaining. He is just - irritated.]] Windchill 9:34 pm Oh, great Whirl 9:34 pm Have a drink. Soothe your nerves. I happen to know a good bartender. ItsyBitsySpyers 9:34 pm *Taps his visor.* Windchill 9:34 pm *Snorts.* Whirl 9:35 pm *a cheeky, sidelong look before he takes a deep drink* ItsyBitsySpyers 9:35 pm \\I'LL HAVE ONE.\\ Bevel 9:35 pm *bored with all this romance, especially since Jack is almost as bad as the Cal guy* FakeProwl 9:35 pm I can understand the desperation of misery. I'm not going to stop criticizing her for it. Windchill 9:35 pm I'm gonna remember that line. ItsyBitsySpyers 9:35 pm *Frenzy sticks his tongue out a the screen and goes to get something serious from Ravage* FakeProwl 9:35 pm *is quite sure he's JUST as bad as the Cal guy. It's just earlier in the relationship.* Windchill 9:35 pm I know a guy with a lot of hands. Whirl 9:35 pm Hell yeah, Frenzy. Swoop 9:35 pm Him kill her?? FakeProwl 9:35 pm *No controlling abusers are at their worst at the very start of a relationship. Otherwise how do you lure them in?* boomtank 9:35 pm -back to staring at the screen for a moment- Are you joking? Small Furry Dragon 9:36 pm *DUCKS BEHIND THE SAFE ZORI CLAW* Windchill 9:36 pm If only. Whirl 9:36 pm Okay. Now. I'm not an expert, but. There's no room in there for anything fun. boomtank 9:36 pm EW Windchill 9:36 pm Not really, no. Bevel 9:36 pm *gets up to go to the bar with Frenzy* ItsyBitsySpyers 9:36 pm //Yeah, that ain't noticeable or nothin'.// Swoop 9:36 pm ?? Windchill 9:36 pm And I'm an expert. FakeProwl 9:37 pm How long have they known each other, exactly? Is this the third day? Shockwave 9:37 pm ((I keep getting pulled away from the computer, hghghghfhfh.)) Windchill 9:37 pm Something like that. A few days. To be fair. ItsyBitsySpyers 9:37 pm [[...That is a beautiful burn of a letter, though.]] FakeProwl 9:37 pm ... It is. I'm impressed. Windchill 9:37 pm My mate and I only knew each other for a day. Small Furry Dragon 9:37 pm *peeks up from Zori's claw* I missed it. Drat. Windchill 9:37 pm So I can't talk. Bevel 9:38 pm What did it say? *was poking at the bar, not watching the movie whoops* ItsyBitsySpyers 9:38 pm [[She gave the Cal human the drawing and said that he could keep her locked in the safe now.]] boomtank 9:38 pm Oh no Bevel 9:38 pm *giggles* Whirl 9:38 pm Yeah, it was pretty decent. boomtank 9:38 pm distracting the lookout Windchill 9:38 pm Dead. Death by sex. Whirl 9:38 pm That's no way to go. ItsyBitsySpyers 9:39 pm \\BLAZE OF GLORY, THAT'S HOW.\\ Small Furry Dragon 9:39 pm Why are they surprised to see an iceberg in the ocean? Whirl 9:39 pm Amen! ItsyBitsySpyers 9:39 pm *Raises his glass* Whirl 9:39 pm *raises his, as well* Windchill 9:39 pm I think you can do both. Or, *he rests a hand on his chest.* I could. FakeProwl 9:39 pm I think it's more the fact that the iceberg is in FRONT of them that's surprised them. Whirl 9:39 pm Well, have at it. ...*tilts his head; this ship' Windchill 9:39 pm I would, but I don't see it going over too well. Whirl 9:39 pm s guts are fascinating, really* ItsyBitsySpyers 9:40 pm *And Soundwave pulls out his tarp. It'll be nice and toasty in exactly the way these fleshlings won't.* Whirl 9:40 pm Why couldn't the movie have been about these guys. Small Furry Dragon 9:40 pm Fair enough. I expected they'd have seen a few more, though. But I think Earth might be warmer than where I live. The poles are smaller, at least, but the planet's smaller too. Swoop 9:40 pm Flying better than swimming. Flying, you just go UP OVER thing. FakeProwl 9:40 pm The impression I got from earlier in the movie is that they're very used to seeing them; they only become a concern when they're on a collision course. Small Furry Dragon 9:41 pm True enough, Swoop! *the dragon would toast, but the dragon did not bring food or drink for dragons* ItsyBitsySpyers 9:41 pm //Ugh, my audials.// Swoop 9:41 pm KAHA Whirl 9:41 pm *sighs* Shame. Looked like an interesting piece of machinery. FakeProwl 9:41 pm They also mentioned that the weather conditions would make it harder to see icebergs earlier, so they have— *covers audials* —have too little time to try to steer out of their way. Bevel 9:41 pm Too loud. FakeProwl 9:41 pm Hence the manic scramble when they DO see an iceberg. Swoop 9:41 pm Maybe tornado drop it there :V Tornado drop a house on road and them DRIVE THOUGH Windchill 9:41 pm Well, if they weren't going so fast, they'd have more time. Swoop 9:42 pm it pretty cool Whirl 9:42 pm Tornados are fun, though. FakeProwl 9:42 pm That as well. Small Furry Dragon 9:42 pm Some people used to try to steer icebergs, in our history. That... failed. Very much so. Windchill 9:42 pm *He knows a thing or two about high speeds and lack of maneuverability.* FakeProwl 9:42 pm *looks at Soundwave and murmurs* Why is Swoop so preoccupied with tornados? ItsyBitsySpyers 9:42 pm @Prowl: (txt): ...Dinobot? Windchill 9:42 pm This is where it gets exciting, I suppose. Swoop 9:43 pm *why isn't EVERYONE preoccupied with tornadoes???* FakeProwl 9:43 pm *blank look. he doesn't see the correlation.* ItsyBitsySpyers 9:43 pm @Prowl: (txt): Interest: destruction. FakeProwl 9:43 pm Icebergs are destructive. But he's still on about tornados even after the iceberg hit. boomtank 9:43 pm Oh no Windchill 9:44 pm *Icebergs are passively destructive, that's probably why.* ItsyBitsySpyers 9:44 pm @Prowl: (txt): Swoop: flier. Iceberg not obstacle, threat. Small Furry Dragon 9:44 pm *cackles* I like that logic. ItsyBitsySpyers 9:44 pm [[...He wonders if Seaspray ever had rats.]] Swoop 9:44 pm *soundwave is right AND ALSO FUCKING TWISTER IS A MASTERPIECE* FakeProwl 9:44 pm Hm. *fair enough, he supposed.* ItsyBitsySpyers 9:45 pm //Aw, c'mon.// Bevel 9:45 pm ... Small Furry Dragon 9:45 pm *squints* *planting evidence. nice.* Whirl 9:45 pm Yeah. That's low. Bevel 9:45 pm He should have felt that fall into his pocket. It is really heavy. Whirl 9:46 pm But then again, it's what I expect. Windchill 9:46 pm Yup. Not really. FakeProwl 9:47 pm She doesn't know him. She's known him three days. Whirl 9:47 pm Honestly, I don't care if she believes him, as long as she gets away. Swoop 9:47 pm Soundwave Windchill 9:47 pm Exactly. ItsyBitsySpyers 9:47 pm [[She should have been telling them about the ice. Not standing by while they did this.]] Whirl 9:47 pm Obviously, she lives. Small Furry Dragon 9:47 pm *amused huff* Well, that's a thing. Whirl 9:47 pm Maybe they'll both eat it and save her the trouble. Shockwave 9:47 pm ((...So, wait, if this is all flashback, how is she telling the guys about scenes where she isn't involved?)) ItsyBitsySpyers 9:47 pm [[What, Swoop?]] Swoop 9:47 pm This movie is movie where grandma get boiled? or that different movie? FakeProwl 9:47 pm ((she's psychic?)) ItsyBitsySpyers 9:47 pm ((some of it's known, isn't it?)) Bevel 9:47 pm ((most of this is in logs and personal accounts yes ItsyBitsySpyers 9:48 pm ((anyway, she's an actress. she embellishes.)) Small Furry Dragon 9:48 pm ((I think it's the guys' forensic analysis stuff, and other's knowledge)) FakeProwl 9:48 pm ((i guess these scenes aren't ones that she's telling them about, they're just showing them to us.)) Whirl 9:48 pm ((ye)) Windchill 9:48 pm (( There were survivors. )) ItsyBitsySpyers 9:48 pm [[...Where a grandmother gets boiled? What?]] Shockwave 9:48 pm ((Hm, alright.)) Swoop 9:48 pm Yah Bevel 9:48 pm ((including at least one person in the room during this scene Swoop 9:48 pm Grandma jump out of boat and boiled Sludge hate it Him spook ItsyBitsySpyers 9:48 pm [[He does not know that film.]] Swoop 9:48 pm Because him giant aby Bevel 9:48 pm Eat him. Swoop 9:48 pm *baby Small Furry Dragon 9:48 pm *hisses* EAT HIM. Windchill 9:48 pm *raises eyebrows.* ItsyBitsySpyers 9:48 pm //RIP HIS HEAD OFF 'N FEED IT TO HIM// Whirl 9:49 pm Yeah! *toast to that sentiment* Small Furry Dragon 9:49 pm Hear, hear! ItsyBitsySpyers 9:49 pm [[...There are newbuilds on this ship.]] boomtank 9:49 pm ...okay, I haven't been paying attention and I really don't like him ItsyBitsySpyers 9:49 pm [[In the low caste area.]] *...Oh.* Whirl 9:49 pm Yep. Windchill 9:50 pm 'Course there are. Swoop 9:50 pm what caste means? Whirl 9:50 pm I bet I can guess how well they're gonna do. Small Furry Dragon 9:50 pm Swoop, it's a ranking. High castes are the ones who tell everyone they're more important than low castes. FakeProwl 9:51 pm *leans forward. much more engaged now that the ship's sinking.* Swoop 9:51 pm Caste is rank Like commander? Windchill 9:51 pm Not really. ItsyBitsySpyers 9:51 pm [[A social ranking. Where you are placed in life.]] Windchill 9:52 pm Caste is your place in society, your purpose and your worth. It is assigned to you and you cannot leave. Swoop 9:52 pm That dumb. Beat up boss. Then you boss. Duh. FakeProwl 9:52 pm I know it's not going to happen. Whirl 9:52 pm You can definitely go down. Windchill 9:52 pm That's what we did. Whirl 9:52 pm Just never back up. FakeProwl 9:52 pm But I hope the pretentious ones keep hanging out in the ballroom while the poor ones go to the boats like they're told to. ItsyBitsySpyers 9:52 pm [[As does he.]] Windchill 9:52 pm Eh, that's mostly true. Small Furry Dragon 9:52 pm I hope the same. Windchill 9:53 pm I lied, I moved around a little bit. *A lot.* Whirl 9:53 pm We never had... I mean, the powerful were in power. There was no official system. Just an unofficial one. ItsyBitsySpyers 9:53 pm [[We did.]] Whirl 9:53 pm Cozy up to the powerful, and you're in. Do anything they don't like, and you're out. Windchill 9:54 pm Sounds gross. Whirl 9:54 pm Didn't even have to be done TO them. Swoop 9:54 pm *cocks his head at Whirl* Whirl 9:54 pm *drains his drink bitterly* Swoop 9:54 pm *doesn't even a little bit get it* Whirl 9:54 pm *that's for the best* FakeProwl 9:54 pm ... We absolutely had an official system. Based on shape. Swoop 9:55 pm Shape? Whirl 9:55 pm Well, eyah, that was... that wasn't a linear caste system, though. Not the same way these folks are talking about it. FakeProwl 9:55 pm It was fairly linear. Windchill 9:55 pm *Shakes his head.* boomtank 9:55 pm The higher castes were....abusive at the best ItsyBitsySpyers 9:55 pm *Soundwave pings his deployers for permission. The usual group give it.* FakeProwl 9:55 pm The lowest microscope was always going to be above the highest miner. Swoop 9:55 pm Fireworks :V Cool Windchill 9:55 pm Where I come from, your shape was the excuse, but it was arbitrated on what was deemed useful at the time. Whirl 9:56 pm *tilts his head* Fair. FakeProwl 9:56 pm Excepting the few who were legally permitted to move up or forced to move down. ItsyBitsySpyers 9:56 pm [[Rumble and Frenzy were construction. Buzzsaw was an artist. He was a spy. And they refused Ravage one.]] Windchill 9:56 pm So people with the same shapes might end up in very different places. Whirl 9:56 pm Yeah, see, there were plenty of folks who were exempt. Swoop 9:56 pm Bird? :> ItsyBitsySpyers 9:56 pm *Truthfully.* [[He does not know.]] Bevel 9:56 pm Why did they refuse Ravage? FakeProwl 9:56 pm The exemptions were a small minority. Whirl 9:56 pm *tilts his head at Soundwave* Swoop 9:56 pm Mystery bird :> Sneaky kehheh Windchill 9:57 pm ...Oh, I get it. FakeProwl 9:57 pm And there's a parallel to the exemptions in this film. They talked about "new money." Windchill 9:57 pm Dead artist joke. ItsyBitsySpyers 9:57 pm [[Because he happened to be created with four legs.]] Small Furry Dragon 9:57 pm *bares teeth in a snarl* Disgusting. Whirl 9:58 pm Did you ever get a chance to pay 'em back, Ravage? ItsyBitsySpyers 9:58 pm *Glances at Whirl. Yes?* *Slow blink.* Whirl 9:58 pm And--all right, all right. You'd know better than I would, Prowl. Made your point. i'll take that as a yes. Shockwave 9:59 pm ((Whoop, bed time, goodnight all.)) Whirl 9:59 pm ((night!)) Windchill 9:59 pm (( night! )) Small Furry Dragon 9:59 pm ((goodnight shockwave!)) Bevel 9:59 pm ((night boomtank 9:59 pm ((g'night FakeProwl 9:59 pm *slight nod* It was more rigid in Petrex than most places. Whirl 9:59 pm And you had the dubious honor of having them breathe down your damn neck. It's a wonder you made it this far sane. Windchill 10:00 pm *Snorts.* Small Furry Dragon 10:00 pm Bite your wrists, Jack. Blood helps. FakeProwl 10:00 pm *flat look* Would you believe it KEPT me sane. Whirl 10:00 pm *SNORTS* Whatever it takes, I guess. FakeProwl 10:00 pm Didn't think so. Whirl 10:01 pm Y'know. She's an idiot, but she's a brave idiot, at least. Windchill 10:01 pm They tend to go hand in hand. FakeProwl 10:01 pm She was going to kill herself three days ago. What does she have to lose? Swoop 10:01 pm ((JASON!!!)) ItsyBitsySpyers 10:01 pm =I was named nothing of worth remaining.= He bares his fangs. =It was true, when I found them.= Whirl 10:01 pm ...yeah, you're right. I get that. Heh! Bevel 10:02 pm Cybertron sucked. FakeProwl 10:02 pm Could've been worse. Could've been led by Starscream. Windchill 10:02 pm It got worse. Or, did where I'm from. FakeProwl 10:02 pm It did everywhere, I think. Whirl 10:02 pm *heaves a sigh and stares into his empty glass* Why'd you have to bust that out when I'm out of booze, Prowl? Bevel 10:02 pm Maybe your Starscream. *likes her Starscream just fine thank you* Whirl 10:03 pm *looks to Ravage* Y'know, I think I get why you ate them. It must be pretty satisfying to just EAT someone who treated you like that. But maybe... I've been spending to much time with Blurr. Windchill 10:03 pm *He's not going to say anything to that.* ItsyBitsySpyers 10:03 pm =Mm.= No denying that. He crosses his paws. =And I was hungry.= FakeProwl 10:03 pm You should have drank slower. Windchill 10:04 pm *Points* Small Furry Dragon 10:04 pm *the dragon smiles at Ravage's comment* Windchill 10:04 pm Don't tell Whirl what to do. FakeProwl 10:04 pm Finally! ItsyBitsySpyers 10:04 pm [[About time.]] FakeProwl 10:04 pm It's about time she punches somebody dragging her around. Whirl 10:04 pm I need a lot of liquor. Amen to that!

I will serve more.= *Hops back off the bar and fixes another.* Swoop 10:05 pm Why won't???? FakeProwl 10:05 pm He'll bleed to death if she does. ... Not a great loss, I think. Swoop 10:05 pm Nuh huh Small Furry Dragon 10:05 pm Better than drowning. ItsyBitsySpyers 10:05 pm *Least he can do for someone who didn't judge him for what he did when he tracked his namers down.* FakeProwl 10:05 pm Is it? Whirl 10:05 pm It's really not. Swoop 10:05 pm Cauterize Whirl 10:05 pm *hops up and trots over to the bar* FakeProwl 10:05 pm She has no heat source to cauterize him with. Windchill 10:05 pm They don't have fire, Swoop. Swoop 10:05 pm There lots of wood For fires Small Furry Dragon 10:06 pm Well, for my kind? Yes. Some of the Cousins lack fur, but when you have fur and you sink, you keep going down. Windchill 10:06 pm No ignition. Plus it's wet. Small Furry Dragon 10:06 pm That was not enough practice. Bevel 10:06 pm *laughs* Whirl 10:06 pm *he's going to very pointedly turn his back to the screen he is not watching this, no thank you* boomtank 10:06 pm Oh.... Whirl 10:06 pm *Ravage you saved his goddamn life tonight* boomtank 10:06 pm wow She got it Small Furry Dragon 10:07 pm Well, I wouldn't have gambled on that. Windchill 10:07 pm She could have hit the pipe and broken it instead. Maybe.

ItsyBitsySpyers 10:09 pm *Rubs his crest. How did any of this come to pass. Who vetted these crew members.* FakeProwl 10:09 pm This movie's much better now that the ship's sinking.

Swoop 10:11 pm *cheers for breaking things* FakeProwl 10:11 pm But watching it go down is far better than watching three different people telling the girl what to do. ItsyBitsySpyers 10:12 pm [[And these humans blocking the escape. They deserve to be locked behind one.]] Small Furry Dragon 10:12 pm When the Goddess ate the Eaten One, they say that the largest of the Cousins threw their bodies at his walls to break them down. It's fun to see how mythos transfers through universes. boomtank 10:12 pm -back to reading. Ignoring the movie now- ItsyBitsySpyers 10:12 pm [[He will not argue that. It is much better now.]] \\YOU GOT SOME COOL MYTHS FOR FLESHIES.\\ Whirl 10:13 pm Yeah. You dragons are all right. ItsyBitsySpyers 10:13 pm [[...And he admires these musicians.]] Small Furry Dragon 10:13 pm I suppose we do. I was raised on it, it seems so normal to me. Whirl 10:13 pm Oh, damn, I've still got to fight that one guy. I know a dragon who's mechanical. We've gotta beat each other up. Small Furry Dragon 10:13 pm Then again, I keep being surprised to see stars. Windchill 10:13 pm (( Hi Winston. )) Whirl 10:14 pm ((IKR?)) Windchill 10:14 pm (( Also the hunter/dad from Jumanji. Amazing. )) *Nods* Dragons are for fighting. Whirl 10:15 pm Oh boy. He might bite it after all. Small Furry Dragon 10:15 pm Not me! I bake. Some of my kind sing, or we so, or spin wool. The other Cousins are better fighters. More claws. Armor-like scales. Windchill 10:16 pm That's cool. *Like, it's cool but it doesn't fit his Skyrim narrative.* *Which is honestly the extent of his dragon knowledge.* Small Furry Dragon 10:17 pm *the dragon isn't exactly skyrim either. fuzzy, not prone to shouting, more insectivore than carnivore* FakeProwl 10:18 pm *is far more invested in the father who's trying to comfort his daughter than in the main characters* Windchill 10:18 pm *Same.* Whirl 10:19 pm *takes his drink back to his table* oh, sod off, movie. Nobody cares. Bevel 10:19 pm *uncovers her face at the shouting* ItsyBitsySpyers 10:19 pm *Facepalms.* Bevel 10:19 pm Noooo boomtank 10:19 pm -doesn't look up and STILL feels the urge to facepalm- Small Furry Dragon 10:20 pm *doesn't have palms and still facepalms. facepaws* boomtank 10:20 pm -the main characters are so stupid- Windchill 10:20 pm *Contorts his face a little.* ItsyBitsySpyers 10:20 pm [[Really.]] [[-Really.-]] Bevel 10:20 pm Go back to the other passengers please. FakeProwl 10:20 pm ... I'm actually hoping he hits. ItsyBitsySpyers 10:20 pm [[So is he.]] FakeProwl 10:21 pm Not that I can stand him. But I'd really like them dead. Small Furry Dragon 10:21 pm Why are they going back to the water? boomtank 10:21 pm Save one of them from their stupidity ItsyBitsySpyers 10:21 pm [[But this is hardly the time.]] Windchill 10:21 pm It'd be cooler if they had guns too. FakeProwl 10:21 pm Maybe he'll follow them into the water and freeze to death too. Whirl 10:21 pm Oh, he's about to eat it! ...damn. Wait...... Windchill 10:21 pm Eh. Seen this film before. FakeProwl 10:21 pm ... Is this where the ship splits? Small Furry Dragon 10:21 pm *shivers* That's a terrible sound. Whirl 10:22 pm It SPLITS? Bevel 10:22 pm Yeah. FakeProwl 10:22 pm Oh. You missed the first ten minutes. Bevel 10:22 pm ...he thought about leaving the newbuild. FakeProwl 10:22 pm Yes, they had a little CGI presentation about how the ship's going to sink. ItsyBitsySpyers 10:22 pm *Who left without their creation?* Whirl 10:22 pm Oh. Neat. Windchill 10:22 pm *Shakes his head.* What were they doing down there? ItsyBitsySpyers 10:22 pm *Oh, good. Only separated. ... Not that it will help.* Bevel 10:23 pm No! boomtank 10:23 pm AH! Small Furry Dragon 10:23 pm Oh. Whirl 10:23 pm Well. It's not like they would've been able to save the kid anyway. No more boats. boomtank 10:23 pm The...the child Whirl 10:23 pm Might as well go quick. Windchill 10:23 pm *Time for his best stone cold expression.* FakeProwl 10:23 pm The front of the ship fills with water first, so that end sinks first. When the rear lifts into the air, the strain breaks it in half. boomtank 10:23 pm Oh... Small Furry Dragon 10:23 pm *accidentally clinging to Zori without asking. the dragon's fur is all puffed out* ItsyBitsySpyers 10:24 pm *Zori gently paps her with claws and offers her a cookie.* FakeProwl 10:24 pm ... He could have given them the keys. Small Furry Dragon 10:25 pm Th-thank you... But I made those for you... *still clinging* *floods of water = bad* Windchill 10:25 pm People act stupid when they're scared. ItsyBitsySpyers 10:25 pm ((i'm sorry if anyone else doesn't do well with flashing, i didn't remember that it got like this)) boomtank 10:25 pm Oh...Primus this isn't good Windchill 10:25 pm (( I forgot too and I saw this recently. )) Bevel 10:25 pm ((it'll stop in a moment ItsyBitsySpyers 10:26 pm [[So much for that boat.]] [[Did he just--]] boomtank 10:27 pm He did FakeProwl 10:27 pm ... You know, if the movie had started with... I don't know, maybe the sex scene, solely to establish that the two characters are attracted to each other. And skipped EVERYTHING before that—the movie would have been much better. Windchill 10:27 pm Much shorter. Whirl 10:27 pm Yep. ItsyBitsySpyers 10:27 pm *...Oh. He's going to--* Small Furry Dragon 10:27 pm Oh no. Bevel 10:27 pm *jumps* boomtank 10:28 pm ................. Windchill 10:28 pm *No reaction.* Small Furry Dragon 10:28 pm *snarls* That's awful. Bevel 10:28 pm He only saved her to save himself. ItsyBitsySpyers 10:28 pm [[At least he saved her.]] FakeProwl 10:29 pm On the bright side, the child's just been adopted into the upper class. Small Furry Dragon 10:29 pm For now. FakeProwl 10:29 pm Awful controlling father, though. boomtank 10:29 pm He's going to drop her the moment he's safe Windchill 10:30 pm So many babies. Small Furry Dragon 10:30 pm Is there something about not laying eggs that make people terrible parents? ItsyBitsySpyers 10:30 pm [[Shock, he assumes.]] [[The captain.]] Small Furry Dragon 10:30 pm Or, at least, not care for their young. Windchill 10:30 pm No. FakeProwl 10:30 pm Appears to be. ItsyBitsySpyers 10:30 pm [[He does not know about the question.]] Windchill 10:30 pm Pretty sure. I don't lay eggs. Whirl 10:30 pm *shrugs* Windchill 10:30 pm I take offense to that. ItsyBitsySpyers 10:30 pm *Admires this musician. Still playing alone.* Whirl 10:30 pm Maybe some of them just don't have the instinct. We don't. Not in my dimension, anyway. FakeProwl 10:31 pm At least the musicians are acting like decent, civilized people. Bevel 10:31 pm They are still playing. ItsyBitsySpyers 10:31 pm *Tiny thread of warmth in his broke-aft spark.* Whirl 10:31 pm ... *a toast to them, at least* Bevel 10:31 pm *would cry if she were physically capable of doing so* Whirl 10:31 pm *he can respect artists dying doing what they loved* Small Furry Dragon 10:31 pm *bows head. the dragon can respect this, too* ItsyBitsySpyers 10:32 pm ((this scene gets me so bad)) boomtank 10:32 pm ((noooo FakeProwl 10:32 pm ... In moments of crisis, people do not rise to the occasion. They fall back to their level of training. If the whole ship had been trained the way those musicians were, many more lives could have been saved. Bevel 10:32 pm *whines* The newbuilds. Small Furry Dragon 10:32 pm *gently pats Bevel with a paw* Windchill 10:32 pm *He'd argue with Prowl, but he's too busy not emoting.* boomtank 10:33 pm -once again, buries face in datapad- Windchill 10:33 pm (( Captions always crack me up holy hell. )) FakeProwl 10:33 pm ... Did that man JUST figure out the boat is sinking? ItsyBitsySpyers 10:34 pm [[There is a difference between knowing something and seeing it before you.]] FakeProwl 10:34 pm Pfff. Windchill 10:34 pm Dead. Small Furry Dragon 10:34 pm *sorry Zori, you get the cling again* Swoop 10:34 pm DEAD ItsyBitsySpyers 10:34 pm *Zori hums for the dragon. For once, it is nice to be big. He can protect them.* FakeProwl 10:34 pm Oh, is this where it breaks? Windchill 10:35 pm Close to it, I think. Small Furry Dragon 10:35 pm ((d'awww Zori you are the precious scorpion childe)) FakeProwl 10:35 pm *oh, damn. the main characters are back.* boomtank 10:35 pm -not looking up, not looking up SO not looking up- Windchill 10:35 pm I barely remember anything. 'Sides the lyrics to that damned song. ItsyBitsySpyers 10:35 pm [[...Wait.]] [[If the ship is going to go straight up, then all of these people are...]] Tilts head. [[Well then.]] Whirl 10:36 pm Yep.

Small Furry Dragon 10:43 pm The splash was impressive enough for me. I drown in water. Whirl 10:43 pm You're just inflexible. Windchill 10:44 pm *Gasps in offense.* That's true. ItsyBitsySpyers 10:44 pm //My everythin' hurts lookin' at this.// FakeProwl 10:44 pm *he's trying not to think about how much of this could have been prevented by an adequately trained crew.* ItsyBitsySpyers 10:44 pm *That's ALL he keeps thinking about.* Whirl 10:44 pm Getcha a drink, Rumble. Windchill 10:44 pm I'm more flexible than I was, though. Swoop 10:44 pm glub glub glub KAHAHA boomtank 10:45 pm Wouldn't the force of the water going down with the ship suck things down with it? Small Furry Dragon 10:45 pm *winces* Bevel 10:45 pm *all she can think about is if they'd have just had enough lifeboats and filled them right* Let go. FakeProwl 10:45 pm ... They could have both saved themselves a lot of trouble if they'd jumped three days ago. Windchill 10:45 pm *He's convinced that the whole thing amounts to hubris.* FakeProwl 10:45 pm I mean. They've ended up in the same place. ItsyBitsySpyers 10:45 pm [[Well. She wouldn't be there to tell them the story.]] Small Furry Dragon 10:46 pm That is fair, but the docents would have scrubbed my mouth for saying such a thing. ItsyBitsySpyers 10:46 pm [[But everyone else would.]] FakeProwl 10:46 pm No great loss. ItsyBitsySpyers 10:46 pm *Fair.* Swoop 10:46 pm that lots of scream ItsyBitsySpyers 10:46 pm *Pulls his tarp tight. You know what? Swoop's right. It's nice to be a flier. No icebergs.

FakeProwl 10:47 pm *at some point some time ago, laced his hands together to prop his chin on.* ItsyBitsySpyers 10:47 pm *...Ice in the air, if he's not careful, but y'know.

Small Furry Dragon 10:53 pm They might be able to make it work, if they thought. But thinking is hard when you're freezing and drowning.

Small Furry Dragon 11:11 pm They're big, they're cold, and you cannot use them for sea travel. Swoop 11:11 pm Soundwave, you show cow get thrown around PCHOOO tornado!! Small Furry Dragon 11:11 pm Also once someone found a giant insect in one. ItsyBitsySpyers 11:11 pm [[No. He is not showing tornadoes.]] Small Furry Dragon 11:11 pm That was fun. I think they actually tried to eat it. Swoop 11:11 pm this guy sound like A TOOL FakeProwl 11:12 pm ... Can we watch the CGI of the Titanic sinking next. ItsyBitsySpyers 11:12 pm [[He will look for something on that.]] FakeProwl 11:12 pm It's on the right. Second video. boomtank 11:12 pm -sighs- ItsyBitsySpyers 11:12 pm [[...So it is.

"It's BELIEVED that the iceberg that sank the Titanic"? They never caught the culprit? ItsyBitsySpyers 11:14 pm *Looks at Prowl* Whirl 11:14 pm The culprit was the dumbass crew. FakeProwl 11:14 pm You know what I mean. Whirl 11:14 pm Iceberg was just... iceberging around. ItsyBitsySpyers 11:14 pm [[...Where would they get stasis cuffs that BIG?]] Whirl 11:14 pm Doing what iceberg's do. Wasn't its fault. Bevel 11:14 pm *laughs* FakeProwl 11:14 pm Oh, shut— I'm a cop, I called it a culprit, get over it. Small Furry Dragon 11:15 pm I would pay to see someone arrest an iceberg. Whirl 11:15 pm SOMEone's prickly tonight. You need a drink. FakeProwl 11:15 pm The— murder weapon, then. ... Dammit. *that's not better* Small Furry Dragon 11:15 pm Well, pay in baked goods, but that's what I have. Whirl 11:15 pm The murder weapon was the controls for the ship. ItsyBitsySpyers 11:15 pm *Sits up slightly. He was only going along with what he thought was a tiny joke.* FakeProwl 11:15 pm The guilty— mmph. Whirl 11:15 pm The iceberg was merely landscape. FakeProwl 11:16 pm *just. jams a hand over his mouth and angrily chinhands.* Whirl 11:16 pm *takes a nice long drink* Windchill 11:17 pm "That looks good," he says. Small Furry Dragon 11:17 pm He's an artist, explaining his art. It just so happens that his art is reconstructing disasters. Windchill 11:18 pm I know what he means. Still poor choice of words. Small Furry Dragon 11:18 pm Fair enough. Whirl 11:18 pm Also--couldn't help but notice your tense, there. You decided to go on and do it, Prowl? *looks over* Bevel 11:18 pm 😞 FakeProwl 11:18 pm ... Do what? *his first thought is "jump off the boat?"* Whirl 11:19 pm You know. FakeProwl 11:19 pm What? Whirl 11:19 pm ...@P: The cop thing. @P: That you asked me about forever ago. FakeProwl 11:19 pm @W «... I turned down the job offer. Immediately after we spoke.» Whirl 11:20 pm @P: All right then. FakeProwl 11:20 pm @W «What's it matter?» Bevel 11:20 pm Play something happy. Windchill 11:20 pm Like. ItsyBitsySpyers 11:20 pm [[Hmm.]] Windchill 11:20 pm Penguins Whirl 11:20 pm @P: Just curious. You said you ARE a cop. Windchill 11:20 pm or Kittens. Whirl 11:20 pm @P: Thought it meant something. Windchill 11:20 pm Not the Madagascar ones. *Points* Eggs hatching. FakeProwl 11:20 pm @W «Well, I also said the iceberg is a culprit. Clearly I misspoke.» Whirl 11:21 pm How about... sea life. Underneath the ice. Maybe barnacles. Windchill 11:21 pm Hmm, barnacles are cool. Small Furry Dragon 11:21 pm Sea life has hard shells, lots of jaws, and will eat you. Whirl 11:21 pm *aloud, he snickers* @P: That IS true., Windchill 11:21 pm All of the other animals are like. Small Furry Dragon 11:21 pm That's the important part. Windchill 11:21 pm Vicious predators. Whirl 11:21 pm That's what I like about it! I've got a pet barnacle that dismembered someone, once. Windchill 11:21 pm Orca whales...which are porpoises, leopard seals...Penguins. Small Furry Dragon 11:21 pm ...You do what makes you happy. Whirl 11:22 pm ...and speaking of which--damn, good thing you reminded me. *looks over to the twins* Oi! You two. ItsyBitsySpyers 11:22 pm //Huh?

Windchill 11:22 pm *Suspicious eyeballing Whirl's way, but he'll say nothing.* ItsyBitsySpyers 11:23 pm //Cause I ain't handlin' barnapocalypse 2.0.// Whirl 11:23 pm Well, you're welcome to come and ask Killer, if you want. But I've got no idea what makes it get... frisky.

Whirl 11:25 pm *begins to mimic that penguin noise* Windchill 11:25 pm Sounds about right. Babies eat a lot. An outrageous amount, in fact. ItsyBitsySpyers 11:25 pm *Soundwave is still mostly looking at Prowl, trying to figure out how to help. Or if he should. ... Well, he can say one thing, at least. And hope it doesn't go wrong.* Windchill 11:25 pm Damn. Probably best that Swoop wasn't here for that display. Eheheh. Whirl 11:26 pm How far do you have to fly to feed the grub? Windchill 11:26 pm Depends. boomtank 11:27 pm -and he's standing up to leave- Thanks for the movie, I gotta go now. G'night ItsyBitsySpyers 11:27 pm [[Goodnight.]] Whirl 11:27 pm Seeya, Windchill 11:27 pm But I'll have to expand my range eventually. ItsyBitsySpyers 11:27 pm @Prowl: (txt): Soundwave liked descriptions. Not untrue. Windchill 11:27 pm It helps that I know where all of the old 'con mines are. boomtank 11:27 pm ((thanks for the stream, and g'night! Whirl 11:27 pm Hmm. Hey, Windchill? Windchill 11:27 pm Eh? Whirl 11:27 pm *makes a penguin noise right at him* Windchill 11:28 pm *Makes a gross dolphin noise right back.* FakeProwl 11:28 pm ((and now whirl and windchill are making the noises that mated birds use to locate each other)) Whirl 11:28 pm *recoils* Don't you spit on me you disgusting creature.

You summoned it.* Whirl 11:28 pm ((the legend LIVES ON)) Windchill 11:28 pm I am disgusting. The...Most Disgusting, even. Whirl 11:29 pm Keep THAT thing away from me, too. *he's pulling his legs back* Nah, not the most. FakeProwl 11:29 pm *acknowledging ping. prowl's indifferent to the comment.* Windchill 11:29 pm *Sucks it back into his head like a noodle.* Whirl 11:29 pm So. ...we're watching videos about animals. Windchill 11:29 pm Not the worst? I'll have to try harder. Whirl 11:29 pm What about frogs? Windchill 11:29 pm *Whispers.* ItsyBitsySpyers 11:29 pm *...All right. He'll just. Let Prowl be. For now.* Windchill 11:29 pm Or True Facts about the Echidna. Or the uh. Bevel 11:29 pm ... Whirl 11:29 pm ... Windchill 11:30 pm Sea cucumber. Good stuff. Whirl 11:30 pm Damn. I'm glad we don't have to do this. Windchill 11:30 pm ...I suppose I'm lucky Riot hasn't absorbed me yet. Bevel 11:30 pm *impressed with this anglerfish's shifting abilities* ItsyBitsySpyers 11:30 pm *Wiggles a feeler to try to amuse himself.* Windchill 11:30 pm It sounds like something he might do. Whirl 11:30 pm Me too, honestly. ItsyBitsySpyers 11:30 pm *Doesn't quite manage.* Whirl 11:31 pm Watch out, Soundwave. You might catch something. Windchill 11:31 pm This one is good too. *He's seen it.* FakeProwl 11:31 pm *... stretches to reach under his back kibble.* Windchill 11:31 pm FROG! *points* We gotta. ItsyBitsySpyers 11:31 pm *Curious look* Windchill 11:31 pm ...After the owls. FakeProwl 11:31 pm *give him a moment to rummage.* ItsyBitsySpyers 11:31 pm [[We will.]] Whirl 11:31 pm *points* That's my whole situation. ItsyBitsySpyers 11:31 pm *Rumble tries* Windchill 11:31 pm *Does it.* *Bobs his head.* ItsyBitsySpyers 11:32 pm //HEY!// FakeProwl 11:32 pm *got it* Windchill 11:32 pm Like me.

He can only drink* *he can, regrettably, vomit* ((he's gonna catch a Pipes)0 Huh. I... ItsyBitsySpyers 11:34 pm *Wiggles it around for a second, trying to understand what he's supposed to do with this. Wiggle. Wiggle. What is--? Wiggle. OH.* Whirl 11:34 pm They use sonar? Windchill 11:34 pm *The difference in appearance is minimal, sadly.* Yeah, kinda. Whirl 11:34 pm *stares. Since when did he and owls have so much in common* Whirl 11:35 pm ((I LOVE THAT ONE)) ItsyBitsySpyers 11:35 pm *Maybe Prowl isn't quite that mad at him after all?* Windchill 11:35 pm Frog... Whirl 11:35 pm *perks up* Look at 'em. ItsyBitsySpyers 11:35 pm *...Wiggles the shamwow at Prowl.* Whirl 11:35 pm PRAISE. ItsyBitsySpyers 11:35 pm //Praise!// Windchill 11:36 pm Sexy winking.

Windchill 11:38 pm He knows. Whirl 11:38 pm ((oh hey NEDDLES)) ((IF ANYONE HAS A PHOBIA OF HOLES)) (9THERE IS A SURINAM TOAD IN THIS)) ItsyBitsySpyers 11:38 pm ((OH GOD okay i won't look)) FakeProwl 11:38 pm ((oh right, the nasty frog)) ((yeah don't look)) Windchill 11:38 pm (( Ahaha here we go.))

(9OH NO NEDDLES IM SORRY)) ((I didn't think about it till we were partway through)) FakeProwl 11:39 pm ((i don't have a phobia of holes but THAT FROG almost makes me have one)) Windchill 11:39 pm I heard in some universes...it's similar. (( I am only bothered by holes in skin. Like that. )) FakeProwl 11:40 pm *oh hey there's a two hour and forty minute video of the titanic sinking in real time* Windchill 11:40 pm (( But I looked anyway because this is me we're talking about it. )) Whirl 11:40 pm ((i fine with that stuff)) ItsyBitsySpyers 11:40 pm *Soundwave's feeler catches the hand batting at it and coils around the wrist. This is his now. ... He'll bite later. And not fuse.* *combined apology and affection ping. thank you.* Bevel 11:40 pm *loves them* FakeProwl 11:41 pm *all right. successfully played the part of the prey.* Whirl 11:41 pm These guys are pretty cool, too. Windchill 11:41 pm Fart ink. I can only aspire to such. ItsyBitsySpyers 11:41 pm [[They are smarter than many vertebrates as well.]] FakeProwl 11:41 pm *... affection ping* ItsyBitsySpyers 11:41 pm [[..."Head hole"?]] FakeProwl 11:41 pm ... There was a suggested video for a real-time collapse of the Titanic. ItsyBitsySpyers 11:42 pm [[There was?]] FakeProwl 11:42 pm Yes. On the last video, it was a suggestion on the side. ItsyBitsySpyers 11:42 pm [[Allow him to do two more and then he will look at it.]] Windchill 11:42 pm Hmmm. Whirl 11:42 pm Those are pretty cool. FakeProwl 11:42 pm *nods* Windchill 11:42 pm Mantis shrimp! The punching shrimp. Whirl 11:42 pm *looks down at his claws and extrudes his deedly-boppers. Horrible writhing things.

ItsyBitsySpyers 11:57 pm //Seeya!// Windchill 11:57 pm *Waves.* ItsyBitsySpyers 11:57 pm *Curiously watches the chinhandsing. Prowl is oddly interested in this story. Is it the forensics thing? It's the forensics thing, isn't it?* Bevel 11:58 pm *interested in the broke ass mechanics that completely fucked this ship over, why would the water tight bulkheads only go partway up the ship?* ItsyBitsySpyers 11:59 pm *Because humans have a lot to learn about how to make things that aren't constructed out of meat?* Yesterday Bevel 11:59 pm *apparently but it was a flaw they knew about, surely that means they could have built a better way* FakeProwl 12:00 am *they're actually better at making things out of metal than they are at making things out of meat* Bevel 12:00 am *idk sentient life in nine months is pretty impressive* FakeProwl 12:00 am *well they don't TRY to make it. it's an automated process. they're incapable of DELIBERATELY constructing a new sentient life.* *giving humans credit for that would be like giving cybertronians credit for a new hot spot firing. ... or whatever goes on in bevel's universe.* Bevel 12:01 am *in most universes anyway. point made in this imaginary conversation* ItsyBitsySpyers 12:01 am *Bevel is a special case.

Do you think the annoying narration is still going? ItsyBitsySpyers 12:03 am *Good. That means neither of them will notice him pulling the shamwow out of his feeler and inspecting it. He's going to test it on his vis--!* Bevel 12:03 am Maybe? ItsyBitsySpyers 12:03 am [[...We can check.]] Said while holding it to the glass.

It doesn't look like they've rendered the people on the Titanic, have they? Bevel 12:20 am I do not see anyone. ItsyBitsySpyers 12:20 am [[They'd be too small to really be seen, wouldn't they?]] FakeProwl 12:20 am At this resolution they might be too small to see, but at least it would be possible to see if there were a mass of them. Maybe it's too early for crowds to have formed. ItsyBitsySpyers 12:21 am [[Ah, yes. There - it said they were only beginning the evacuation.]] FakeProwl 12:21 am Mm. They're still indoors. Bevel 12:21 am The lights on the side are only just starting to sink. FakeProwl 12:22 am *... watches as the lights disappear under the water, one by one.* Bevel 12:22 am *finds this depressing and interesting and not sure if she should feel bad for the latter* ItsyBitsySpyers 12:24 am *It IS depressing and interesting. It's also pushing him to unwanted thoughts now and again, which is why he keeps distracting himself with the shamwow and the occasional bit of chatter.* *But he is mostly watching.* FakeProwl 12:24 am *that's one row completely gone.* FakeProwl 12:26 am *it is depressing. he's not distracting himself from it.* Bevel 12:27 am ((i'm actually kind of fascinated grimly by this but i'm also thinking i should probably lay down like a responsible adult. boo FakeProwl 12:30 am ((go. be an adult.)) ((damn i missed the last message)) ((they need to like, ding when they've got a status update.)) Bevel 12:31 am ((that would be really nice Bevel 12:32 am ((only problem with being an adult is that bevel would watch the next two hours FakeProwl 12:32 am ((im gonna go get rid of my dirty dishes but im not gonna be an adult for another half an hour.)) ItsyBitsySpyers 12:32 am ((I looked away to catch up on dash and there's a whole row of lights gone again)) FakeProwl 12:32 am ((brb)) Bevel 12:33 am ((it's faster than you realize, which is terrifying ((ok, gonna be an adult. assume bevel is well and truly way too involved in this video FakeProwl 12:36 am ((back)) ItsyBitsySpyers 12:36 am *Rumble's just. Gonna slowly make his way over to Soundwave. And curl up against his arm.* ((wb)) FakeProwl 12:37 am *Heard a sound, glances over at the— Is Soundwave using Prowl's sham-wow* ItsyBitsySpyers 12:38 am *...................Maybe. He might be quietly scrubbing at his leg with it.* FakeProwl 12:38 am *... stares.* *... all righty then. gonna. look back at the video.* ItsyBitsySpyers 12:39 am *Feel free.* FakeProwl 12:40 am *there goes another row of lights.* ItsyBitsySpyers 12:40 am [[The -first-?]] FakeProwl 12:40 am ... They made the decision to evacuate the ship—what—twenty minutes ago? ItsyBitsySpyers 12:41 am *Particularly rough swipe with the cloth.* [[It's been most of an hour.]] FakeProwl 12:41 am Why did they only send a distress call now? ItsyBitsySpyers 12:41 am [[Because they're idiots.]] [{Or were.]] [[The humans still would not have survived in the sea, but at least the rescue ship would have arrived quicker.]] FakeProwl 12:42 am That's an unacceptable answer. It's a dismissive answer that allows the real causes—preventable causes—to be ignored. ItsyBitsySpyers 12:43 am [[They were clearly untrained, unprepared, and uncontrolled.]] FakeProwl 12:43 am "It happened because they're idiots" is no more useful than "it happened because of an act of gods." Acts of god can no more be prevented than idiocy. Chalking the situation up to idiocy is as good as saying that nothing could have been done. WHICH idiocy, specifically, made them take the better part of an hour to send out a call—even twenty minutes after they chose to evacuate? Were they understaffed and couldn't spare someone to man the radio? Did they need to get their radio operator out of bed? Did they disagree on which distress signal to send out? Specific things—preventable things—things that can be addressed. Things that can be changed so that the same idiocy doesn't happen in the future. ItsyBitsySpyers 12:45 am [[He expects hubris played a role.]] [[And a desire not to upset the precious, fragile little high caste humans.]] FakeProwl 12:46 am Hubris doesn't explain why it took another twenty minutes after they got over their hubris and admitted they had to abandon ship. They were willing to disturb their fragile little high caste humans from their beds twenty minutes before they called for help, and a call for help needn't be heard by the high caste humans. If THAT were their motive, the call for help would have come twenty minutes before they worked up the nerve to wake their passengers. ItsyBitsySpyers 12:48 am [[He doesn't know why. Perhaps nobody knows why. If the movie is to be believed, much of the crew went down with it.]] [[The narration isn't telling us.]] ItsyBitsySpyers 12:49 am *Look at the gap. There could have been boats in that gap.* FakeProwl 12:49 am ... Things could have been different. Things could have been done differently. They could have been trained differently. They could have been trained better. ItsyBitsySpyers 12:50 am *The hesitation and the repetition catch his attention. He stops scrubbing at his leg and stares at Prowl.* FakeProwl 12:50 am Even once it was too late to load up the ship with more lifeboats and too late to avoid a collision—they could have reacted differently. They only had enough boats to save half the passengers, but half the passengers COULD have been saved. Roughly. Barring unavoidable accidents, broken boats, an inability to lower them properly due to the ship's listing... FakeProwl 12:53 am If someone clever enough was on board they could have started tearing up the tables and benches to make rafts. ItsyBitsySpyers 12:53 am [[...They should have had someone like you.]] *Scrub scrub.* FakeProwl 12:54 am ... I— I would have... *falls silent* ItsyBitsySpyers 12:55 am [[Protected them?]] FakeProwl 12:56 am ... I would have been the one locking poor passengers behind gates to prevent riots around the lifeboats. ItsyBitsySpyers 12:56 am *Oh.* FakeProwl 12:58 am ... When there's only enough room for half the passengers to survive, the other half need to be prevented from fighting for a place on boats that can't fit them. Fighting reduces survivors. It would be the only... *falls silent again.* ItsyBitsySpyers 12:58 am *And he said he would see the people locking them behind doors locked up themselves.* *Way to go, self.* [[It is not the only way.]] FakeProwl 1:01 am *doors were opened that were never used. murmurs,* So disorganized. ItsyBitsySpyers 1:02 am [[They waited far too long. For everything. Passengers were noticing the water before they were told. They were not brought up until there was barely time left to board. People panic when there is no time.]] FakeProwl 1:02 am People panic when the boats are full and there's no room left for them, too. People panic when ships are sinking. ItsyBitsySpyers 1:04 am [[Then that's the real problem. The boats.]] FakeProwl 1:05 am In the proposed scenario it's too late to do anything about the boats. The number is the number and there should have been enough for everyone, but there aren't. ItsyBitsySpyers 1:05 am [[There would be if someone attentive enough insisted on having them and not catering to delicate visual sensibilities.]] FakeProwl 1:06 am And when there aren't enough boats for everyone, someone has to choose who's to die. ItsyBitsySpyers 1:06 am [[And did not bow before policymakers who do not care about those lower than themselves.]] FakeProwl 1:06 am *nods at the notice that just came on the screen* Lightoller chose men. ItsyBitsySpyers 1:09 am [[Organics often choose that. The newbuilds will grow to be the new adults.]] FakeProwl 1:09 am Who they chose isn't important. What's important is a choice had to be made. ItsyBitsySpyers 1:10 am [[Who they choose -is- important.]] ItsyBitsySpyers 1:12 am [[You do not think it would be possible to allow only some of the rich and some of the poor? There was no other place they could have gathered the rich to allow the crew to separate them into groups? Only this fancy dining hall that, again, would not offend them?]] [[They could not have lied and said women and children to the left side boats, men to the right, and then locked the men away?]] FakeProwl 1:13 am No, they couldn't have. The couples and families would have objected and insisted that they stay together. They would have furiously protested their separation. ItsyBitsySpyers 1:13 am [[Then simply separate the group as a whole.]] [[Half here, half there.]] FakeProwl 1:14 am There was a notice on the screen earlier about a couple that refused to part, so they both stayed on the ship and put their maid on the lifeboat instead. That would have happened en masse. They would have followed their mates to the wrong sides of the ship. That's what locking up half of them does. Half here, half there. Which half doesn't matter—whichever half is EASIEST to lock up is the half that SHOULD be locked up, because time was short and elaborate gimmicks waste precious minutes. Getting the passengers together en masse and splitting them into two would have taken half an hour. If the ship's already segregated in half, it takes five minutes to lock one half away and ensure there won't be hundreds of doomed lives milling on the top deck when they find out there aren't enough boats. Which half is saved doesn't matter. Just that it's the EASIEST half. ItsyBitsySpyers 1:16 am [[That condemns the poor for circumstances beyond their control, often to the point of their birth. They are placed in a position where they are beneath everyone, and then when lives are at stake, they are confirmed as worthless.]] [[And the rich were no better. They were corrupt. Selling their creations, abusing each other.]] FakeProwl 1:17 am And that's damn tragic and should never have to happen. But I would rather save a thousand rich lives than five hundred mixed lives. Not because the rich deserve it any more than the poor, but because there's five hundred more survivors. ItsyBitsySpyers 1:18 am [[Then you should be the person in charge of designing the ship so that -nobody- needs to perish.]] FakeProwl 1:18 am That's not the POINT! We're talking about what happens when it's ALREADY too late! I'm not the person who designs ships, I'm the person who has to choose who dies! I'm ALWAYS the person who has to choose who dies! ItsyBitsySpyers 1:19 am [[And his point is that you do not have to be.]] [[At least not only when it is too late.]] FakeProwl 1:20 am *face screws up. forcibly smooths it. looks away.* ... We're never going to have a world so perfect that there won't have to be choices between who lives and who dies. It's an impossibility. ItsyBitsySpyers 1:23 am [[Of course it is. We are fallible creatures. There are probably entire universes dying every day, and he cannot fulfill his oath and help save them all. But we can try to minimize the need.]] FakeProwl 1:24 am I can't save all the idiots from themselves. I spent four million years trying. ItsyBitsySpyers 1:25 am [[So did he. Not quite to your extent. Our faction beliefs were too different. But near enough.]] FakeProwl 1:25 am How'd that work out for you. ... I'm sorry. That was uncalled for. ItsyBitsySpyers 1:31 am [[It was.]] [[And it didn't. Our population is smaller than yours and mostly comprised of Vehicons and Insecticons, he lost everyone but Laserbeak, and the Decepticons tore themselves apart.]] [[Lately, he has been trying something new. Abandoning all the weak results in losses he cannot accept. Nor will he continue catering only to those who are already powerful.]] ItsyBitsySpyers 1:34 am [[And he is certain he will fail more often than not. But he is tired of doing the same thing.]] FakeProwl 1:35 am *... if that's a moral Soundwave considers relevant to the conversation, then he's missed Prowl's point completely.* ItsyBitsySpyers 1:35 am [[He understands the desire for maximum efficiency.]] FakeProwl 1:36 am *prowl doesn't think it's worth correcting. doesn't matter.* ItsyBitsySpyers 1:41 am *He pauses. His words aren't working. He knows what Prowl's trying to get at. He knows what he's trying to get at. He can't quite make them meet in the middle. Trying anyway.* FakeProwl 1:45 am *returns to watching the video* ItsyBitsySpyers 1:57 am [[But perfection is not possible for imperfect creatures. Mechs will die or be hurt. He may lose one of his deployers again, or himself, or you. He would rather not, but he might. And it might be him choosing. If it is, he will try to get as close to his ideal as he can.]] [[But he would prefer to put himself in a position where he can learn and guide and ensure that he rarely has to do it, until his interference is not needed.]] *Tiny vent. This isn't right. He hates his head for limiting him out loud when it's so powerful inside.* [[We aren't filling boats anymore. Those ships sank, and we cannot recover the lives we lost. He is trying to help design a new one so that you do not -have- to make those choices.]] ItsyBitsySpyers 1:59 am [[Primus knows Starscream will only choose himself. You, at least, will try to get as many as you can, and he can sneak others into the spaces left behind.]] FakeProwl 2:02 am *watches silently as one lifeboat almost lands on another* *he doesn't want to load lifeboats anymore. he wants to sit on the ship and watch it sink. he's not going to say that.* ItsyBitsySpyers 2:03 am *Soundwave kind of already knows.* *Not the extent of it, that it goes past Prowl to encompass the whole planet. But the idea that Prowl, at least, would like to jump the rails.* FakeProwl 2:05 am *dully* I'm glad the orchestra kept playing. ItsyBitsySpyers 2:08 am [[As is he.]] Another tiny vent. [[Sentimental beings, music lovers.]] FakeProwl 2:09 am Well-trained. They did their jobs properly when many others did not. No one would have blamed them or remembered if they hadn't. ItsyBitsySpyers 2:13 am [[No, they wouldn't. And he does not think they would be considered responsible for anything, unlike the other crew members.]] [[But it likely gave some of the escapees and the doomed a few more moments of comfort.]] [[He would not like to die to silence, himself.]] FakeProwl 2:15 am ... I think I would. ItsyBitsySpyers 2:15 am [[...Why?]] *Realizing that might sound judgmental, he quickly tags it as curiosity.* FakeProwl 2:16 am ... I don't know. FakeProwl 2:18 am ... I don't want to be distracted, I suppose. ItsyBitsySpyers 2:18 am [[From the experience?]] FakeProwl 2:18 am From my own death. It seems like the sort of thing I shouldn't only be paying half attention to. ItsyBitsySpyers 2:19 am [[He supposes not. There wouldn't be a do-over.]] Pauses to look down at Rumble, who is sleeping with his arms locked around Soundwave's forearm. [[Usually.]] FakeProwl 2:20 am Hopefully. *... shouldn't have said that.* ItsyBitsySpyers 2:26 am [[...You asked him to extinguish you if you were badly damaged. When - after the pipe. He didn't listen then.]] *Thinking about Rose on the rails and what Prowl said during the movie.* [[He apologizes for that. If it is ever his duty, he will do what he promised when he became your ally. And he will try to keep the area quiet.]] [[But he would--]] Long silence. [[He would talk about you.]] FakeProwl 2:27 am *goes very still* ... It doesn't matter. The pipe DIDN'T cause permanent damage. ItsyBitsySpyers 2:31 am [[No. It didn't. He is thankful for that.]] [[He would rather talk -to- you.]] FakeProwl 2:32 am I know. ItsyBitsySpyers 2:32 am *The big pipes falling reminds him of Tyran Ratchet. He turns away from the screen for a second.* *And just nods.* ItsyBitsySpyers 2:34 am *Pulls his tarp tighter.* FakeProwl 2:34 am ... It sank so fast at the end. ItsyBitsySpyers 2:36 am [[It did. He assumes it was because there was nothing to block the water.]] FakeProwl 2:38 am Yes, it was very streamlined like that. But it's still just... Two and a half hours. And then, seconds. Not streamlined. aerodynamic. ... Aquadynamic? ItsyBitsySpyers 2:40 am [[...He likes that one. Use that one.]] [[It still surprises you that things move so quickly.]] Not quite a question, not quite a statement. FakeProwl 2:40 am It's not surprise. It's... *he doesn't know what it is. shakes his head.* ItsyBitsySpyers 2:41 am *...Kind of wondering if Prowl is wondering if it's like that to die.* FakeProwl 2:42 am ... What's that video? The six unexplainable mysteries. *oh. premonitions and conspiracy theories. he'd been hoping for forensic mysteries.* FakeProwl 2:48 am *... those were all horrible* ItsyBitsySpyers 2:49 am *He wouldn't know. His mind was very much elsewhere. Like here:* [[It's only over in seconds in reality, you know.]] FakeProwl 2:49 am *wasn't the loss terrible enough without conspiracy theories that it was deliberate?* *gives Soundwave a baffled look* ... Well, yes, I suppose so. *they dragged it out for, what, 15, 20 minutes in the movie?* ItsyBitsySpyers 2:52 am [[No. No. The--]] He rubs his crest with his free hand. [[In reality, it only takes seconds. Sometimes. But in your spark, in your mind, it's hours. Days. Longer. Sometimes he feels twice his age.]] ItsyBitsySpyers 2:59 am [[He wouldn't want silence. He's already dealt with it five times without distraction. Ten, with the copies. It's--]] His hand drops and covers his visor, then slides to his lap. [[For all that he would willingly take for himself, he would never ask to feel that again.]] FakeProwl 3:00 am *... oh. Soundwave's not talking about the ship sinking.* ItsyBitsySpyers 3:00 am [[The ones in the water, the ones falling, all of them - it was not seconds to them.]] FakeProwl 3:01 am *well, NOW he's talking about the ship sinking, but.* ItsyBitsySpyers 3:02 am *Sometimes he wonders what it did to Starscream. He'll try not to think about that too.* FakeProwl 3:02 am *glances at soundwave, then looks at the screen. what does he say to that? what does he possibly say to that.* FakeProwl 3:04 am ... If you're dying in front of me, I'll sing for you. I mean—no, obviously, if you're dying in front of me, I'll try to stop it. That's the first priority. I just mean—hypothetically—if I can't— *he's going to stop before he makes it worse.* ItsyBitsySpyers 3:07 am *He can't turn his whole self without waking Rumble, so he just pulls the hand he never let go of to his face and presses it against his visor.* *And nods.* FakeProwl 3:08 am ... *scoots next to Soundwave* ItsyBitsySpyers 3:10 am *Curls an arm and a feeler around Prowl and is quiet.* FakeProwl 3:11 am ... I probably, just—strike you as profoundly spoiled and ungrateful. ItsyBitsySpyers 3:15 am [[No. More fortunate, overall. Angry. Depressed. Lost. Mistreated.]] FakeProwl 3:16 am Never had a near death experience. ... Or a vicarious death experience. ItsyBitsySpyers 3:16 am [[Knock Out is profoundly spoiled and Starscreams are ungrateful. You are neither.]] ItsyBitsySpyers 3:17 am [[More fortunate overall, as he said. And you cannot have the second. He is built for something you are not. He will not blame you for that.]] ItsyBitsySpyers 3:19 am [[But he will - did - tell you.]] FakeProwl 3:19 am *... has to stop and think a few comments back.* *"depressed"? "lost"?* *... yeah. maybe so.* ItsyBitsySpyers 3:23 am *He is qualified to recognize both on a personal-experience basis and is certain it's more than a maybe.* ItsyBitsySpyers 3:26 am [[His apologies. His glossa has run away with him.]] FakeProwl 3:26 am *shakes head* ItsyBitsySpyers 3:26 am *Pulls the tarp off himself with free feeler and drapes it over Rumble instead.* FakeProwl 3:27 am *... is prowl's hand still on soundwave's face. runs thumb along the edge of his visor.* ItsyBitsySpyers 3:30 am *Still is. He presses against it and into the thumb, then returns the gesture, though his thumb strokes the bottom of a chevron instead. There's no visor. Yet.* [[You will need rest soon. Tonight has been...]] Rough? Depressing? Frightening? Sentimental? Awkward? Frustrating? [[...A night.]] FakeProwl 3:34 am Mm. *he doesn't want to leave yet.* ItsyBitsySpyers 3:38 am *Lets his arm drift down to Prowl's shoulder and pulls. If Prowl's going to insist on staying, Soundwave doesn't mind being a pillow. He's used to sleeping in piles anyway.* FakeProwl 3:39 am *leans on Soundwave. optics don't dim. he isn't tired.* ItsyBitsySpyers 3:41 am *Someone Prowl hates would probably say Soundwave was projecting. Soundwave would probably throw them under the nearest steamroller.* FakeProwl 3:42 am *Soundwave would have Prowl's eternal gratitude.* ItsyBitsySpyers 3:44 am *That, and telling himself the flickering out is for work or recharge keeps him from worrying too much.* *He'd wear that proudly. If secretly. Nobody else would need to know why he had it.* ItsyBitsySpyers 3:46 am [[Sing before that happens.]] Pause. That's rude, isn't it? [[Please.]] FakeProwl 3:46 am ... Before what happens? *lost the train of conversation somewhere* ItsyBitsySpyers 3:48 am [[What you said earlier. So it is associated with something pleasant.]] Another pause. [[Not now, necessarily. But some time. He likes hearing your voice.]] And a third. [[Now it -is- running away.]] FakeProwl 3:49 am ... Which thing I said earlier? Oh. *it took him a moment to work it out* Yes. Right. Sure. Just—don't die, and we won't have to worry about it. ItsyBitsySpyers 3:50 am [[He isn't planning to. Though he would like to eventually hear it anyway.]] ItsyBitsySpyers 3:52 am *Primus, he needs to block himself from being able to write text messages before he says or does something he can't take back or smooth over.* *...Some more.* FakeProwl 3:54 am *small nod*
