Hi Spidey! 👋

Ripley’s bum looks like a pompom

TC: Oh my goodness what a cutie!!!! Thanks for submitting! 11/10 great spide butt

Dear lord, I watched some bits of that video where stan lee was criticizing todd mcfarlane and rob liefield on making a character and GOD. I would seriously consider giving up everything if I got called out immediately on shit like that.

Does your dimension have any other superheroes besides you, Spider-Woman, and Webam? If so, what're they like?

Great question! Yes! I will say that Spider-Woman, Webam, and I are the only spider heroes. The others have their own themes and styles going on.

There is Squirrel Girl, who I believe is dating my bestie Spider-Woman. I have kinda held back from getting close to Squirrel Girl so that she has plenty of Spider-Woman time if you know what I mean. Squirrelie is super nice and sweet as far as I know her. If you wanna know more though, as Spidee-Woman.

Then there is my good chaotic friend Lori! Named after Norse God of mischief. I've seen that Lori is an actual living God and even a villain in some universes but I'm glad to call him my sweet lil mischievous gremlin friend. He's not actually a gremlin btw. Pretty sure he's human... he's at least humanoid... I try not to think about this too much.

Ursa Major is up next. She can be compared to a fusion of different heroes in different worlds called "Captain America" and "Black Panther". Except. No she does a bear theme not a black panther. So thats a thing. She comes from a long line of people from Spain with natural abilities imprinted in their bloodline. I think natural abilities are the most amazing in our world. I am almost jealous of my friends like this... But anyways back to Ursa Major! She is super sweet and cuddly. I've been patrolling and hanging out with her at least once a week for months and months now! We have a lot of one on one time.

We also have our own version of Black Widow here! As Webam has said, we don't have whatever "S.H.I.E.L.D" is so her origin is pretty different. Basically she's a cool Betty who can kick butt in many many ways. Her personality is surprisingly giggly and relaxed despite her demeanor in battle. She is willing to sympathize with pretty much anyone which is amazing.

I am proud to call these supers my allies and my friends. Its amazing to think about how I was the first of these many who have come into the light as defenders and protectors. I may not have "natural" powers but everyone here seems to accept me as a natural superhero. Sometimes, thats all you need.

You wanna wear tough guys pants? Good luck cleaning them tomorrow.

I work as a bartender in a small cocktail bar for some time now, and I'm usually chill. But bullies can still push my buttons in a wrong way. Before starting, I may be in the wrong for doing this, but it is what it is.

A week ago, a bunch of guys came for a few. They seemed like OK dudes, early 20-is, but the group dynamic was kinda off. Introducing the main antagonist. Obnoxious guy, too loud, snapping his fingers at me when ordering (don't snap fingers at bartenders kids, we're not dogs), punching his friends in the shoulders all the time,... A sportier, really aggressive version of a David Spade character he was.

Next to David Spade, sat the victim of most of his "playful" teasings. Silently enduring his shit, I really felt sorry for this fellow. He wasn't a drinker, but he looked like he would rather be drinking distilled devils piss than continue sitting next to this macho maniac. He was really uncomfortable. David continued to bugg him to take a shot at least, "come on, one with me, don't be a pussy, a bitch,..." until, after whole night of persuasion, finally my dude waved the white flag. Ok, lets do one shot together, then leave me be.

"Two of your most fucked up shots," Spade shouted snapping his fucking fingers, while I imagined snapping his fucking neck. Oh, you'll get a fucked up shot, buddy. I made this two layered shots, but while looking almost the same, they were different. David got stuff like Red Jacques Senaux Absinthe (75% alcohol), Stroh (80% alcohol), tabasco (110% flaming diarrhea), really nasty business all together, and other guy got mostly syrups, juices, harmless stuff. They looked almost identical, Red Absinth can pass visually as a cranberry juice, Stroh as a syrup from brown sugar, Sambuca as anything colorless, etc...

They took their shots and all hell broke loose. Other guy chugged his shot like a champion, not even flinching (why would he, he drank juice). But David Spade... Boy, oh boy. He looked like he'd have a brain aneurism. Tears pouring from eyes, coughing like his lungs want to come out, he had a face and a posture of a man who just got waterboarded with some sort of chilly sauce. Other guy looked surprised until he caught a wink from me, but David Spade and the rest of the crew, now roaring with laughter about his misery, suspected nothing.

They got their shots on the house, poor dude was left alone, and David was a good boy for the rest of the night, deflatedly enduring small mockings from his fellows. Now, I may have used my powers in a wrong way, but this is the first and only time I messed with customers drinks. And I regret nothing. He was rude, aggressive even, to everyone around him. Fuck you, sporty David Spade.

Here's a recipe for a "Fuck you, David Spade": Equal parts of Sambuca Molinari, Red Absinthe Jacques Senaux (75%), freshly squeezed lime juice and Austrian liquer Stroh (80%). Add tabasco at will, you can mix it with lime juice. Use a bar spoon if you want to make a layered shot. Stroh is placed at the top, because it's the best burning alchohol - you can make a flaming shot out of it, a "Burned David Spade", if you like.

Disclaimer: I have nothing against real David Spide, I like him actually. But his sporty doppelganger deserves a kick in the butt.

ok ok so!! i saw ur daemonverse reblog and like....... thoughts on who has what daemons in a sky high daemonverse ??? ( it's malicebertha btw !! )

SKY HIGH? DAEMONVERSE? I’VE NEVER-- [falls over, revealing pages and pages of old documents, one of which has a half-finished sky high rewrite that i ditched because adding daemons didn’t..... add anything to the story and if i wanted to add more worldbuilding elements i would need to come up with probably a new plot as well; others of which live on my old laptop but include real dodgy photoshops of the characters w their daemons] oh you mean THAT sky high daemonverse

Will, friendly, social, trusting, loyal Will, the all-round everyman who barrels through life and occasionally leaves destruction in his wake through no malicious intent, eventually settles as a big yellow labrador. yes, she has superstrength and can fly as well. floaty dogs are Good. She only settles right at the end of the movie.

Layla has a yellow anaconda. Underestimated, a demon in her element, and possessing both the patience to wait things out and the strength that when she does strike, it’s decisive. Before settling, her daemon tends to take bird forms, cat forms, more ‘socially-appropriate-especially-for-a-girl’ forms. She settles somewhere in the middle of the movie, while Will’s in the hero course. He’s devastated that he missed it, and they decide to go to a celebratory dinner at her favourite place, the paper lantern. We all know what happens to those plans...

Zach, who is social but walks to the beat of his own drum, self-confident despite the environment he’s thrown into devaluing what it is that makes him special, and who kind of speaks like a surfer dude, is a galapagos marine iguana. He settles before the movie starts.

Ethan, who is very intelligent, works well under the right kind of pressure and can quickly adapt plans to cope with new information and use his prey’s elements against them, is a fringed jumping spider. He settles during the final battle, when they’re making plans. Throughout the movie, she takes prey forms like mice in an attempt to get away from bullies.

Magenta is a chinese pangolin. Sharp and precise, but also able to shrug off much of what the world throws at her. She’s settled before the movie. When she shifts into a guinea pig, her daemon disappears, and reappears when she becomes human again.

Warren, who prefers to be solitary but is perfectly willing to butt heads should the situation call for it, is a grey long-tailed goral. He’s settled before the movie starts.

Steve Stronghold, who is proud and while he’ll work with others prefers to do so only if they’re at his level (sorry, Mr Boy), is a tiger (not sure what subspecies, it may not matter). He settled during High school, probably around when the school was putting on Oklahoma!

Josie Stronghold, who is both fast and fiercely protective, strikes me as a long-tailed weasel (well, a mustelid generally, and this is one of the american ones).

Gwen Grayson has a common hawk-cuckoo. Sue Tenny had a shikra. (there’s a lot to unpack, here.)

Penny has an australian magpie, speed has an unspecified-as-yet viper, lash has a serval.

Coach Boomer has a brown skua. Ron Wilson, Bus Driver, has a Hawfinch. 

Feb 18 Dancitron CAH Night

Due to a catastrophic millipedekebab incident, movies are down at Dancitron for a while. Instead, they played cards.

Starscream flirted with Prowl. Prowl was flustered beyond words. Prowl flirted back. Starscream callously ignored it. Prowl was devastated.

After the card games, Prowl asked Soundwave why he switched back from a half visor to a full visor. The conversation wasn’t pleasant and did not end well for anybody.

Within the realm of decency.]] [7:40:49 PM] <+Specs> You're not going to eat it, then?

Wait, can you eat metallipedes? [7:41:42 PM] <Slendy> [[He supposes one /could/ make a meal of it, but generally speaking it doesn't taste good. The armor is wonderful for construction work, however.

[7:42:57 PM] <+Tarantulas> Do let me know if there's anything interesting left over once the scavenging groups are through. [7:43:02 PM] <asksmokescreen> You, Windbutt! [7:43:11 PM] <WindchilltheBUTT> *Squints.* [7:43:23 PM] <+Specs> Anything can be eaten with enough time and patience. It just has to be worth it- and something that tastes bad, I suppose, is not worth the effort. *she kind of wants to try cooking one anyways* [7:43:24 PM] <Starscream> You know what? Now you have made me curious about what they taste like. I hope you are happy. [7:43:25 PM] <WindchilltheBUTT> You can't eat me I'm toxic. [7:43:43 PM] <Slendy> [[Feel free to go there whenever you like. Any of you. He would like his tower back as soon as possible, and it is a VERY large beast.]] [7:44:03 PM] <+Specs> Well, we can't eat you /raw/ if you're toxic. What if I buried you in sand for a year, and then boiled you? [7:44:10 PM] <VProwl> ((prowl is quiet because mun is preparing dinner)) [7:44:13 PM] <asksmokescreen> ... How toxic are you? [7:44:33 PM] <Slendy> ((ooh i see. carry on)) [7:44:38 PM] <WindchilltheBUTT> Well, it's my personality mostly but the rest of me might be a little toxic too. [7:44:41 PM] <Starscream> How about we don't try to test it out? [7:44:45 PM] <+Tarantulas> He's only toxic in his relationsh - yes, that. [7:45:00 PM] <+Tarantulas> *huffs. self-deprication beat him to it* [7:45:03 PM] <Slendy> [[Please, no eating each other on the premises.

[7:45:51 PM] <asksmokescreen> But not me, right? [7:45:55 PM] <Starscream> *moves away, anxious* [7:46:07 PM] <WindchilltheBUTT> I dunno, depends. [7:46:14 PM] <Slendy> *Soundwave remembers an incident contradicting Smokescreen, but will keep mum.* [7:46:15 PM] <Starscream> *moves further* [7:46:15 PM] <WindchilltheBUTT> I like to be spontaneous that way. [7:46:23 PM] <Slendy> [[You're fine, Starscream. No one will bite you.]] [7:46:39 PM] <+Specs> I was under the impression that eating other cybertronians was taboo in most universes. [7:46:45 PM] <WindchilltheBUTT> It is. [7:46:47 PM] <Starscream> One bite would be okay, eating not so much [7:46:57 PM] <asksmokescreen> *He is eternally grateful to Soundwave for NOT mentioning that incident* [7:47:04 PM] <Swerve> [doesn't comment] [7:47:10 PM] <Slendy> *Ravage snorts on Starscream's foot to test that statement* [7:47:11 PM] <asksmokescreen> I mean- if you bite me, you'll probably bite part of some garbage.

[7:56:27 PM] <Slendy> [[Observing their actions and testing them against their words, typically.]] *Absently, before he stares at Swerve in silence a moment or ten.* [[That's... unfortunate.]] [7:56:40 PM] <Swerve> Little more than unfortunate when it's Tarn who got them. [7:56:42 PM] <WindchilltheBUTT> I did that last night. [7:57:03 PM] <Slendy> *That, right there, is quite the horrified emoji on his visor. To TARN?* [7:57:06 PM] <Starscream> ... Which one is Tarn again? [7:57:12 PM] <Tarantulas> *squints at prowl. 'hate when that happens'????? whatsglsfgd* [7:57:14 PM] <Slendy> [[The one who stole his face.]] [7:57:15 PM] <+Specs> Tarn is the one that sings people to death. [7:57:28 PM] <Swerve> Tarn wants to meet me. Alone. To negotiate Megatron. [7:57:28 PM] <WindchilltheBUTT> *Tsk tsk tsk* [7:57:32 PM] <Starscream> Hm... doesn't sound trustworthy [7:57:33 PM] <Swerve> I'm stuck on the alone part. [7:57:41 PM] <WindchilltheBUTT> Then don't go. [7:58:00 PM] <Slendy> *....Has only just realized what Prowl said. He looks over.* @P: [[Does that happen OFTEN?]] [7:58:05 PM] <VProwl> I suggest bringing Megatron tied with a bow. I think Tarn will forgive the slight disobedience. [7:58:27 PM] <VProwl> @S «No. Not OFTEN.» [7:58:32 PM] <+Specs> *the dragon tries- badly -to stifle a laugh at Prowl's suggestion. that's hilarious.* [7:58:53 PM] <Starscream> Does Lord Megatron like Tarn? [7:59:04 PM] <Swerve> On the one hand I kind of totally think I should but on the other I am not sure I'll survive going. [7:59:16 PM] <Slendy> [[Tarn likes Lord Megatron. In the way that only mindless fanatics like anything.]] [7:59:24 PM] <VProwl> Tarn is one of Lord Megatron's favorites. [7:59:26 PM] <Swerve> No he wants to kill Megatron actually. [7:59:35 PM] <Starscream> Oh... so like any good soldier likes Megatron? [7:59:38 PM] <Swerve> That's what he wants to negotiate. Handing over Megatron to die. [7:59:49 PM] <Starscream> DON'T [7:59:57 PM] <Slendy> [[Oh, do.]] [7:59:58 PM] <Starscream> I'll protect him [7:59:58 PM] <Slendy> ((OKAY WE'RE GOIN)) [8:00:04 PM] Play 2 cards, in the order you wish them to be judged. [8:00:10 PM] <+Specs> *the dragon side-eyes Starscream* The phrase "any good soldier" shouldn't be used by those who command them. [8:00:10 PM] <asksmokescreen> OOOH I'M THE JUDGE [8:00:14 PM] <asksmokescreen> Appease me! [8:00:25 PM] <Slendy> [[And now, with that wonderful thought in mind, let us play. You'll find your cards in front of you. He promises not to read your minds.]] [8:00:48 PM] <asksmokescreen> You wouldn't read my mind normally, would you, Soundwave? [8:00:55 PM] <Swerve> Oh I don't have too bad for cards. [8:00:58 PM] <+Specs> Mine's mostly full of recipies. [8:01:24 PM] WindchilltheBUTT wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [8:01:30 PM] <WindchilltheBUTT> What am I looking at. [8:01:32 PM] <Starscream> What do you mean, Megatron is a great leader [8:01:33 PM] <WindchilltheBUTT> Oh shit. [8:01:40 PM] <VProwl> Just out of curiosity, how often do you NOT cheat at cards? Just—percentagewise. [8:01:44 PM] <Slendy> [[Primus, no, Smokescreen.]] *He has Smokescreen's feeds for that.* [8:01:56 PM] <Tarantulas> You don't ask a magician his secrets, Prowl. [8:02:22 PM] <Swerve> You should though [8:02:23 PM] <Tarantulas> Or... his statistics, I suppose. [8:02:23 PM] Tarantulas wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [8:02:26 PM] <+Specs> I mean only that it's a red flag amongst my species. [8:02:29 PM] <Slendy> [[...How often do you play with him?]] *He somehow manages to look guilty without his face being visible in the slightest.* [8:02:34 PM] <VProwl> *I* ask a magician his secrets. [8:02:42 PM] <Slendy> [[Trap doors.]] [8:02:44 PM] <+Specs> *squints at Tarantulas. which one was cheating, hm?* [8:03:23 PM] WindchilltheBUTT wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [8:03:24 PM] <VProwl> I play with you 100% of the time I'm at your games. I don't know how many games you have when I'm not around. [8:03:31 PM] Play 2 cards, in the order you wish them to be judged. [8:03:48 PM] <+Specs> *the dragon perks up. her turn to judge! appease the tiny, fuzzy dragon.* [8:04:00 PM] <asksmokescreen> Hey, Specs, did I ever tell you how handsome you are? [8:04:18 PM] <WindchilltheBUTT> *Rolls his optics* [8:04:29 PM] <+Specs> *churrs* Thank you... but that doesn't help when I don't know who played what card. [8:04:39 PM] <Slendy> [[He doesn't play very often. Except when he is somewhere else. Then he enjoys fleecing those who make habits of fleecing others.]] [8:04:41 PM] Tarantulas wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [8:04:50 PM] RulesAndProtocol has left the game. [8:04:55 PM] <Slendy> [[Particularly when useful currency is involved.]] [8:04:56 PM] <WindchilltheBUTT> *CRACKS KNUCKLES* [8:05:28 PM] <WindchilltheBUTT> *SQUINTS* [8:05:30 PM] <asksmokescreen> Hey, Windchill. You're awfully handsome, too! [8:05:38 PM] <WindchilltheBUTT> The grammar is all wrong. [8:05:40 PM] <Slendy> *Quietly huffing at the vast, predatory bird.* [8:05:46 PM] <Starscream> Smokescreen, that won't help [8:05:48 PM] VProwl wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [8:05:52 PM] <asksmokescreen> I mean, I can try! [8:05:57 PM] <Swerve> [snickers] [8:05:59 PM] <+Specs> I never turn down compliments. [8:05:59 PM] <WindchilltheBUTT> Sorry, dude. [8:06:17 PM] <Starscream> You have to know who played the card to give preference to them [8:06:27 PM] <+Specs> ((damn, if only Swerve was czar, I have the perfect card)) [8:06:32 PM] <asksmokescreen> Messy? Messy, Messy- have you ever wanted to borrow the phase shifter? For like, a month? [8:06:32 PM] Tarantulas wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [8:06:43 PM] <Slendy> [[...That is luck he can do without.]] [8:06:51 PM] <Tarantulas> *snorts into his mouthful of snack at how he won that one* [8:07:02 PM] <Tarantulas> What? [8:07:06 PM] <Tarantulas> What is this about the phase shifter? [8:07:09 PM] <Swerve> [//lmao] [8:07:17 PM] <asksmokescreen> You know- maybe I can lend it to you for a while! [8:07:17 PM] <VProwl> *knows which one is going to win* [8:07:21 PM] Specs wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [8:07:24 PM] <VProwl> *knew it.* [8:07:26 PM] <asksmokescreen> ... [8:07:29 PM] <Starscream> Do you have one? [8:07:30 PM] <+Specs> *the dragon churrs evilly* [8:07:30 PM] <asksmokescreen> Oh [8:07:31 PM] <Slendy> [[Panderer.]] [8:07:36 PM] <Swerve> Oh nooooo. [8:07:38 PM] <Slendy> [[Oh, he actually knows this. Terrible story.]] [8:07:39 PM] <+Specs> And a shameless one. [8:07:54 PM] <Swerve> Man, don't hurt me with these cards. [8:08:13 PM] <VProwl> For the record, I don't have a "tactical processor." I have a processor. It's good at tactics. [8:08:22 PM] <Starscream> Oooooo [8:08:30 PM] <Slendy> *A Shockwave not finishing their work - indeed, terrible.* [8:08:30 PM] <Tarantulas> You mean borrow it for a prolonged amount of time, Smokescreen? [8:08:31 PM] <Starscream> Can you teach me? [8:08:35 PM] <+Specs> I can only do so much with the cards I am given. Unless vandalism is permitted. [8:08:41 PM] <asksmokescreen> ...... Maaybe? [8:08:55 PM] Tarantulas wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [8:08:59 PM] <Tarantulas> And of course, Prowl. I simply chose the card with your designation on it. [8:09:01 PM] <VProwl> There are cards you're permitted to commit vandalism on. [8:09:03 PM] <VProwl> I know you did. [8:09:03 PM] Play 2 cards, in the order you wish them to be judged. [8:09:09 PM] <asksmokescreen> Dangit, one day I'm going to get a point. [8:09:39 PM] <WindchilltheBUTT> If we gang up and kill Tarantulas you might have a chance. [8:09:49 PM] <asksmokescreen> No!!! [8:09:49 PM] <+Specs> No killing the science spider, please. [8:09:56 PM] <asksmokescreen> Messy's my friend and I couldn't do that [8:09:59 PM] <Tarantulas> *smug at how he's being defended* [8:10:03 PM] <WindchilltheBUTT> But then you'd have to kill me. [8:10:07 PM] <asksmokescreen> Okay [8:10:29 PM] <Slendy> ((THE LOCKPICKING i'm dying)) [8:10:29 PM] <WindchilltheBUTT> Just saying. [8:10:36 PM] Starscream wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [8:10:44 PM] Play 2 cards, in the order you wish them to be judged. [8:10:51 PM] <asksmokescreen> I'd sooner do that than hurt Messy [8:11:25 PM] <WindchilltheBUTT> *He's gonna throw away some cards on this one.* [8:11:32 PM] <asksmokescreen> Buuuut I wouldn't do either [8:11:33 PM] <Starscream> I didn't mean it glorious leader, I hope he doesn't hear about this [8:11:37 PM] <WindchilltheBUTT> Do what? [8:11:43 PM] <VProwl> *doesn't bother defending when the threat is clearly insincere. ... that said he's prepared to bridge someone into a star.* [8:11:46 PM] <asksmokescreen> Hurt you [8:12:05 PM] <WindchilltheBUTT> Oh, yeah. I don't take that stuff personally. Usually. [8:12:13 PM] Swerve wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [8:12:22 PM] <Tarantulas> You really needn't, Smokescreen, hush now. [8:12:26 PM] <asksmokescreen> Soundwave, we're the only ones left in the no-point club! [8:12:31 PM] <asksmokescreen> I know, I know. [8:12:34 PM] <Swerve> Yay [8:12:45 PM] <Swerve> Man I have good cards for this too [8:12:55 PM] <+Specs> *the dragon just smiles* [8:13:05 PM] <VProwl> *is positive he's going to win this round.* [8:13:50 PM] <WindchilltheBUTT> Hmm. [8:13:50 PM] <Slendy> [[Of course. It means he couldn't possibly be the worst mech in the room. Which he isn't, and could never be.]] [8:13:55 PM] <Swerve> Oof, tough. [8:13:56 PM] <Starscream> Can... can you guys promise not to tell Lord Megatron what cards I played in the round I won? Please? [8:14:00 PM] Starscream wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [8:14:05 PM] <+Specs> Of course I won't tell. [8:14:07 PM] <VProwl> *is INSULTED* [8:14:15 PM] <Swerve> I'm sorry!!!! Too many choices. [8:14:21 PM] <Swerve> They were all so good. [8:14:25 PM] <+Specs> *hmph. her pandering has failed. and she saved "rodimus' magic buttcrack for Swerve!* [8:14:33 PM] <VProwl> I had the only internally coherent set. [8:14:34 PM] <Swerve> [hides face in hands] [8:14:36 PM] <Slendy> [[Your secret is his secret.]] [8:14:44 PM] <Slendy> [[He thought it was a true and brilliant set, Prowl.]] [8:14:49 PM] <VProwl> THANK you. [8:14:54 PM] <WindchilltheBUTT> There's no accounting for humour. [8:14:57 PM] <Swerve> It was nice. [8:15:11 PM] <Slendy> [[Most of these are, in fact, true.]] [8:15:15 PM] <+Specs> *the dragon considers* Prowl, even or odd? [8:15:24 PM] <VProwl> Even. [8:15:30 PM] <+Specs> *hey, she needs a coin flip and she doesn't have a coin* Very well. [8:15:36 PM] VProwl wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [8:15:42 PM] <VProwl> *that worked out well.* [8:15:47 PM] <+Specs> ... *lucky prowl* [8:15:49 PM] <Starscream> They do? [8:15:53 PM] <WindchilltheBUTT> Do me proud. [8:15:56 PM] <Tarantulas> ...Have you ever realized that the word 'even' has an even number of letters, and the word 'odd' has odd. [8:16:04 PM] <WindchilltheBUTT> I can;t count. [8:16:05 PM] <Tarantulas> *stares off* [8:16:11 PM] <asksmokescreen> That's just odd! [8:16:17 PM] <VProwl> They're well designed. [8:16:34 PM] Starscream wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [8:16:47 PM] <WindchilltheBUTT> *He's very decisive apparently* [8:17:08 PM] <WindchilltheBUTT> *Okay this one is actually true for him.* [8:17:23 PM] asksmokescreen wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [8:17:29 PM] <asksmokescreen> My first point!! [8:17:31 PM] <Starscream> ((honestly)) [8:17:37 PM] <Tarantulas> *high fives for smokey!!!* [8:17:37 PM] <WindchilltheBUTT> Congratulations, you did it. [8:17:40 PM] <asksmokescreen> ((i love neon toys ngl)) [8:17:41 PM] <Tarantulas> *or. well. high three* [8:17:50 PM] <asksmokescreen> *High Threes!* [8:17:55 PM] <VProwl> *mutters* Too bad I don't have a card with my name on it... [8:18:04 PM] <Swerve> [holds face and cackles quietly at cards] [8:18:04 PM] <Tarantulas> You never know. Someone else might. [8:18:08 PM] <WindchilltheBUTT> All of these are wrong. [8:18:09 PM] <Slendy> [[He doesn't either. He looked.]] [8:18:15 PM] <Starscream> ((True, but also... my eyes!)) [8:18:21 PM] <WindchilltheBUTT> *Raises eyebrows* [8:18:28 PM] <Slendy> =Wait, WHAT.= [8:18:36 PM] <+Specs> *she doesn't have eyebrows to raise, but...* [8:18:37 PM] <WindchilltheBUTT> *Cackles* [8:18:42 PM] <Tarantulas> *tarantulas is DYING* [8:18:52 PM] <asksmokescreen> ((my eyes love this stuff and i hope to get a sg tc sometime to continue my tacky shelf)) [8:19:03 PM] <Swerve> [losing it into his drink] [8:19:07 PM] <VProwl> *............ "spiny"?* [8:19:17 PM] asksmokescreen wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [8:19:19 PM] <Slendy> *Ravage slinks off with his nose in the air to be insulted. He gets as far as Soundwave's lap before curling up and hissing at the table.* [8:19:21 PM] <asksmokescreen> :D [8:19:24 PM] <asksmokescreen> I love you, Messy! [8:19:25 PM] <Tarantulas> There's another point for you [8:19:28 PM] <Tarantulas> You're quite welcome [8:19:33 PM] <+Specs> *damn, her pandering failed again* [8:19:34 PM] <Starscream> Is there anything you would like to discuss with us Ravage? [8:19:44 PM] <Slendy> *Hissing LOUDER* [8:19:56 PM] <+Specs> Leave Ravage alone, that's his business and his alone. [8:20:01 PM] <Starscream> Sorry... [8:20:09 PM] <Tarantulas> His and his partners', one supposes. [8:20:10 PM] <Slendy> [[If there is a card that says "to ask Soundwave what he should actually do for once", you will wi-- oh. How disappointing.]] [8:20:13 PM] <Slendy> [[Well, let him look.]] [8:20:26 PM] <asksmokescreen> Soundwave, if you give me a point, I'll lend you a particular book [8:20:34 PM] <Slendy> [[You'll lend him the book anyway.]] [8:20:37 PM] <asksmokescreen> No [8:20:58 PM] Starscream wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [8:21:03 PM] <asksmokescreen> ... I mean, maybe I will, but. [8:21:08 PM] <Slendy> [[War without end was a good idea, but if it doesn't end, it can't complete a conquest.]] [8:21:37 PM] <asksmokescreen> ... Oh. Dock. DOCK. [8:21:40 PM] <+Specs> ... [8:21:45 PM] <Swerve> [snorts] [8:21:48 PM] <Starscream> Megatron doesn't want war without end anyway [8:21:49 PM] <Swerve> Is that what it says. [8:21:50 PM] <Slendy> *Glower.* [8:21:53 PM] <VProwl> ((THE FIRST TIME I DIDN'T READ "DOCK" EITHER)) [8:21:59 PM] <asksmokescreen> I misread that for a klik! [8:22:04 PM] <Tarantulas> (( where's YOUR brain at puff [8:22:08 PM] <VProwl> ((dick)) [8:22:09 PM] <WindchilltheBUTT> I thought it was a typo. [8:22:10 PM] Tarantulas wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds.

[8:22:43 PM] <Swerve> Hmm. Throwaway cards for me [8:22:48 PM] <Slendy> [[Neither would he.]] [8:23:00 PM] <VProwl> *mutters something about not minding getting HIS dentae on them* [8:23:07 PM] <WindchilltheBUTT> *Eyes the Trypticon one warily.* [8:23:13 PM] Specs wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [8:23:14 PM] <WindchilltheBUTT> *It might try to get him.* [8:23:24 PM] <Starscream> I like my pointless fangs [8:23:29 PM] <+Specs> In my defense, I had only the single internally consistent card. [8:23:29 PM] <Slendy> *Gently nudges Prowl.* [[And here he thought he sufficiently pandered.]] [8:23:43 PM] <Slendy> [[Did you?]] [8:24:01 PM] <VProwl> Which was yours? [8:24:03 PM] <WindchilltheBUTT> *Has....two of the exact same card in his deck now?* [8:24:19 PM] <WindchilltheBUTT> *Fascinating.* [8:24:43 PM] VProwl wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [8:24:44 PM] <Slendy> [[He supposes /his/ have a discernible reason to exist.]] [8:25:03 PM] <+Specs> Pumpkin-related cards automatically win this round. [8:25:13 PM] <asksmokescreen> Specs, I think I just gave you my BEST card combo ever [8:25:15 PM] <VProwl> I didn't choose it because it said "my." I don't want people coming into my fangs. ... And I don't ahve fangs anymore. [8:25:25 PM] <WindchilltheBUTT> Good to know. [8:25:26 PM] WindchilltheBUTT wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds.

The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [8:26:39 PM] <Swerve> I've never had fangs. They're kind of cool. [8:26:42 PM] <WindchilltheBUTT> Damn straight. [8:26:43 PM] <Slendy> [[...Why did you get rid of them?]] [8:26:48 PM] <+Specs> *aha, favor returned* [8:26:59 PM] <Slendy> [[And he recommends them, Swerve. They are useful.]] [8:27:00 PM] <Starscream> They can get inconvenient I guess [8:27:04 PM] <VProwl> Well, not "everyone." When they were trendy. [8:27:10 PM] <Starscream> I bite myself all the time [8:27:20 PM] <Slendy> [[He objects. He doesn't have a card with his own name on it.]] [8:27:22 PM] <Swerve> Maybe I will. They're kinda attractive on the right mech. [8:27:24 PM] <+Specs> Fangs are- *pfff, ultra magnets* -Fangs are delightful and very useful. [8:27:32 PM] <VProwl> I got rid of them because I didn't continue to like them when they stopped being trendy. [8:27:42 PM] <WindchilltheBUTT> But unnecessary. [8:27:49 PM] Tarantulas wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [8:27:57 PM] <+Specs> ...The last card is you as written by Smokescreen? [8:27:59 PM] <Slendy> *Pings Tarantulas a satisfied note.* [8:28:01 PM] <Tarantulas> *cackles* Look, it's you, Soundwave. [8:28:02 PM] <asksmokescreen> why tentacles messy :( [8:28:03 PM] <+Specs> *or as played by Tara* [8:28:08 PM] <asksmokescreen> what no [8:28:10 PM] <Swerve> [laughs] [8:28:35 PM] <VProwl> *... mm. feeler-transferred data......* [8:28:40 PM] <WindchilltheBUTT> None of my cards are gross enough for this.

[8:29:04 PM] <Tarantulas> *tarantulas can't help but giggle and say the word weenie* [8:29:18 PM] <Slendy> [[He regrets missing it. Unless you have images?]] *That's a hopeful note.* [[But he has plenty to spare, he supposes.]] [8:29:51 PM] <+Specs> ... [8:29:52 PM] <WindchilltheBUTT> Overlord? [8:29:54 PM] <WindchilltheBUTT> Nice. [8:29:56 PM] Starscream wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds.

[8:33:18 PM] <Slendy> [[Throwing thousands of others under the bus.]] [8:33:51 PM] <WindchilltheBUTT> Is that a rhetorical question. [8:33:52 PM] <+Specs> Brainstorm, as in, "wildly unsafe brand of quote-unquote science" Brainstorm? [8:33:53 PM] Tarantulas wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [8:33:59 PM] <Swerve> Yes. [8:34:06 PM] <Swerve> He's practically magic. [8:34:06 PM] <+Specs> ...Oh dear.

[8:35:02 PM] Play 3 cards, in the order you wish them to be judged. [8:35:02 PM] <WindchilltheBUTT> I would eat them probably. [8:35:03 PM] <Slendy> [[He is absolutely not.]] [8:35:06 PM] <WindchilltheBUTT> And get sick. [8:35:26 PM] <WindchilltheBUTT> But that would just be the consequences of eating pumpkins I guess. [8:35:59 PM] <WindchilltheBUTT> Hmm. [8:36:07 PM] Slendy wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [8:36:16 PM] <WindchilltheBUTT> *He had to.* [8:36:25 PM] <Slendy> [[...Is this really the content he's winning his first point on.]] [8:36:25 PM] <+Specs> *phew. it seems Prowl didn't see The Card.* [8:36:36 PM] <WindchilltheBUTT> Of course it is.

The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [8:47:18 PM] <Slendy> *PLEASED* [8:47:37 PM] <+Specs> Dinobots in an energon shipment is inherently terrifying. *that was her play, she is pleased.* [8:47:43 PM] <VProwl> *you win because prowl is still sorta into tyrest and ultra magnus* [8:47:46 PM] <Swerve> God why do I always have the perfect card only when it's my turn to judge?

[8:53:02 PM] <Slendy> *Soundwave gives Prowl and Tarantulas each a single pat before getting up to help Lieutenant with the drinks.* [8:53:14 PM] <WindchilltheBUTT> Yes, whoever wins gets eaten.

What is the prize? [8:53:43 PM] <Slendy> [[The prize is having your personal dignity and honor forever smeared by one more degree.]] [8:53:51 PM] <WindchilltheBUTT> Then I put my foot in my mouth I guess.

[9:18:29 PM] <asksmokescreen> *Smokescreen's still happy to run over to him and grab his servos!* Megs, Megs- it's good to see you! How're you feeling? [9:18:34 PM] <Slendy> you can't be present in the metal, and do know that soundwave will NOT be nice to him and it's nothing against you personally)) [9:19:21 PM] Play 2 cards, in the order you wish them to be judged. [9:19:41 PM] <Megatron> Oh, shit. Why are there so many appealing sparks in. [9:19:56 PM] <Slendy> [[What.]] [9:20:13 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> *Gently places cards down.* [9:20:16 PM] <Swerve> [scoots chair three inches to the left] [9:20:30 PM] <rodicron> [nudges a cube of high-grade towards the round boi Megatron] You ain't you when yer hungry. [9:20:41 PM] <VProwl> *... hell of a crowd they've attracted tonight.* [9:20:51 PM] Megatron wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [9:20:57 PM] <rodicron> ALSO WHAT ARE BATTLETITS AND HOW CAN I GET THEM [9:21:05 PM] <Slendy> [[Ask Whirl.]] [9:21:06 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> Whirl has battletits. [9:21:08 PM] <asksmokescreen> ... I'm guessing you're not doing okay, Megs? [9:21:16 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> *Gasps.* [9:21:21 PM] <+Lieutenant> Gracious [9:21:25 PM] <rodicron> are they like [9:21:28 PM] <Slendy> *He's laser-focused on Megatron, and not in a good way. If he moves even an INCH in what appears to be a wrong direction...* [9:21:29 PM] <rodicron> gun boobs [9:21:32 PM] <rodicron> because i want those [9:21:37 PM] <rodicron> how do you get those [9:21:42 PM] <Swerve> Brainstorm. [9:21:49 PM] <Swerve> He provides. [9:21:51 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> Goooooot a whale of a tale to tell you lads, a whale of a tale or TWOOO, [9:21:58 PM] <Megatron> ...he's going to casually pick Smokescreen up and settle him in his lap as a distraction... A reminder to stay in his own seat. ((I legit forgot my megs is a sparkeater, whoops)) [9:21:58 PM] <Swerve> Whirl says they come with a warranty. [9:21:59 PM] Megatron was skipped this round for being idle for too long. [9:22:04 PM] <Kingscream> ..what is that awful sound. [9:22:06 PM] <rodicron> I WANT TEN [9:22:21 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> 'Bout the flapping fish and the Whirls I've loved on nights like this with the moon above! [9:22:25 PM] <Swerve> Man, don't be mean to the Rodpod [9:22:33 PM] <+Lieutenant> Why would you want guns on your chest? The Whiplash would send you on your back every time you fire. That or your view would be obstructed. [9:22:34 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> A whale of a tale and it's all true, I swear by my.... [9:22:37 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> Tattoo. [9:22:44 PM] asksmokescreen wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [9:22:55 PM] <rodicron> Yeah, but gun boobs. No one would see them coming. [9:22:59 PM] <Slendy> ((He can't be a sparkeater while here. He would be killed. I'm sorry. Please run with him as normal and without DE taint/sparkeater infection or he can't stay.)) [9:23:01 PM] <Kingscream> Alright, impress me [9:23:01 PM] <rodicron> I can't see my pedes anyway, so whatever. [9:23:27 PM] <Slendy> [[He would try to impress you, but his cards are terrible.]] [9:23:36 PM] <rodicron> Actually, you know what would be better than gun boobs? [9:23:36 PM] <Swerve> Hope I win. [9:23:38 PM] <Megatron> "I'm fine, Smokescreen." He's watching Soundwave as well, aware of the scrutiny. [9:23:38 PM] <rodicron> Gun face. [9:23:49 PM] <VProwl> *he looks like one of the ones that's... purportedly trying to repent. Which is the only thing keeping Prowl from leaving. ... Or bridging him into a smelter.* [9:23:49 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> Heard of gun face. [9:23:55 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> Heard it's really sexy. [9:23:59 PM] <VProwl> *that said? he's leaning a little closer to Soundwave.* [9:24:04 PM] <rodicron> PEW PEW, I SHOOT KISSES [9:24:08 PM] <rodicron> AND DEATH [9:24:13 PM] <Slendy> *And Soundwave's leaning a little closer to Prowl, because he's thinking the same thing.* [9:24:14 PM] <rodicron> BUT MOSTLY SMOOCHIES [9:24:20 PM] Swerve wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [9:24:31 PM] <Slendy> [[Oh, were we talking about the one Lockdown...?]] [9:24:31 PM] <Kingscream> ((I couldn't not [9:24:44 PM] <+Lieutenant> *doesn't know why he tries to talk logic and physics with his own species sometimes* [9:24:47 PM] <Swerve> Yay good cards this hand.

[9:25:02 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> Winner gets eaten. [9:25:03 PM] <Swerve> I have two. [9:25:06 PM] <+Lieutenant> A what? [9:25:08 PM] <asksmokescreen> ... I can take both [9:25:12 PM] <rodicron> It's a badge of my face. [9:25:14 PM] <rodicron> They're awesome. [9:25:17 PM] <rodicron> And super rare. [9:25:22 PM] <rodicron> Only good bots get them. [9:25:27 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> Cool story bro. [9:25:28 PM] Megatron was skipped this round for being idle for too long. [9:25:30 PM] <Slendy> [[Zori has one.]] [9:25:37 PM] <VProwl> I've got one. [9:25:43 PM] Swerve wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [9:25:50 PM] <rodicron> SWERVE GETS A RODIMUS BADGE!!! [9:25:56 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> I'm a bad guy so I don't have one. [9:26:02 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> That's fine by me. [9:26:07 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> Okay...boys... [9:26:10 PM] <Swerve> Cool. [9:26:10 PM] <Slendy> *Glance to Prowl.* [[You kept yours?]] [9:26:13 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> Give me your worst. [9:26:19 PM] <rodicron> Long as you're not Getaway, you could get a Rodimus badge. [9:26:23 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> I'm ready. [9:26:23 PM] <VProwl> It's magnetic. [9:26:28 PM] Megatron has left the game. [9:26:30 PM] <+Lieutenant> ... *has no idea who Rodimus is. His timeline is way too far behind to know who that is* [9:26:38 PM] <VProwl> Getaway's got a Rodimus star. [9:26:47 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> You say that, but you have't officially met me. [9:26:53 PM] <rodicron> WELL I DON'T REMEMBER GIVING ONE SO HE DOESN'T HAVE ONE [9:26:56 PM] <Swerve> Surprisingly he does. [9:27:09 PM] Kingscream wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [9:27:09 PM] <rodicron> DON'T REMEMBER IT, SO IT DIDN'T HAPPEN [9:27:14 PM] <Slendy> [[...What does Getaway have one for?]] [9:27:28 PM] <VProwl> He didn't tell me. Being pretty? [9:27:36 PM] <Swerve> I'm not actually sure. I think it was for getting us off Luna 1? [9:27:41 PM] <Swerve> MAybe. [9:27:48 PM] <Slendy> [[Then it must have been a mistake.]] [9:27:57 PM] <rodicron> Even I make those, sometimes. [9:28:00 PM] <rodicron> Or my alternates. [9:28:03 PM] <rodicron> Or whatever. [9:28:08 PM] <Slendy> *Getaway, pretty? Ha.* [9:28:21 PM] <asksmokescreen> ((DANGIT i used the wrong card [9:28:30 PM] WindchillhasFeet wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [9:28:31 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> (( RIP )) [9:28:36 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> Hell yeah. [9:28:39 PM] <asksmokescreen> ((I should've used "The Unicron Trilogy" [9:28:43 PM] <Slendy> [[Someone is insulting your title.]] *To Starscream* [9:28:45 PM] <VProwl> *liked the mental image of Unicron choking on Bombshell* [9:29:12 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> *Liked the idea of insecticon hard ons.* [9:29:24 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> *That's it that's the depth of the reasoning.* [9:29:29 PM] <VProwl> Dominus Ambus has a WHAT? [9:29:37 PM] <rodicron> Whoa. [9:29:41 PM] <Kingscream> Hmph! Insult is an expression of envy.

[9:30:05 PM] <asksmokescreen> ... What's breastfeeding [9:30:05 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> But I'm afraid to find out so I won't ask. [9:30:08 PM] <rodicron> ABOUT THE CARD [9:30:11 PM] <rodicron> NOT THE BOOB LIQUID [9:30:19 PM] <rodicron> i mean that's cool too but not my thing sooooo [9:30:36 PM] <Slendy> [[It means Dominus Ambus is into interfacing with fleshlings, as far as he understands it.]] [9:30:45 PM] <VProwl> *prowl is shocked. stunned. amazed. also he doesn't actually know what breastfeeding is.* [9:30:46 PM] WindchillhasFeet wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [9:30:57 PM] <asksmokescreen> Ohhh. Is it really that weird? [9:30:57 PM] <VProwl> *he imagines it means vore, but through your chest instead of your mouth.* [9:31:14 PM] <+Lieutenant> *makes a mental note to purchase more drinks when leaving to try and drown out the memories* [9:31:16 PM] <rodicron> It's an organic thing. Like, they do it to feed their kids. [9:31:17 PM] <Swerve> [doesn't actually know either but he's not admitting it's his card] [9:31:19 PM] <Slendy> [[He doesn't know, beyond that.]] [9:31:21 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> *Windchill, a relative expert in earth biology, feels no need to enlighten anyone.* [9:31:37 PM] <+Lieutenant> *Appreciates* [9:31:50 PM] <asksmokescreen> ... There's a lot of weird organic things, that doesn't narrow it down [9:31:55 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> *And that's all the tact you'll get out of him this evening.* [9:31:57 PM] Slendy wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [9:32:03 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> *Gasps* [9:32:08 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> Overlord's what? [9:32:27 PM] <rodicron> Overlord's a lot of things. [9:32:27 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> ....His lips are fake? [9:32:29 PM] <Swerve> I think it's a cow. [9:32:32 PM] <Slendy> [[Pardon him for not being interested in human mating rituals and all the oozing and shedding that goes on.]] [9:32:47 PM] <asksmokescreen> Understandable, Soundwave! [9:33:05 PM] WindchillhasFeet wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [9:33:12 PM] <rodicron> Actually, if anyone were to get it, it'd probably be Soundwave. You got cassettes, right? It's the same basic thing, I think. [9:33:13 PM] Play 2 cards, in the order you wish them to be judged. [9:33:15 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> I'm gonna punch him next time I see him. [9:33:28 PM] <Slendy> [[He does not. He has deployers, and they do not turn into cassettes.]] [9:34:01 PM] <rodicron> ... they don't? Huh. Guess that's why you're so skinny. [9:34:08 PM] <rodicron> ... what do they turn into? [9:34:18 PM] <Slendy> [[Armor, mostly.]] [9:34:27 PM] <rodicron> That's... practical, I guess. [9:34:34 PM] <Slendy> [[Rather.]] [9:34:35 PM] Swerve wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds.

(For reference, the winning card set:)

[9:34:43 PM] Play 2 cards, in the order you wish them to be judged. [9:34:46 PM] <Kingscream> Arranging the entertainment for Dancitron, I suppose. [9:34:46 PM] <VProwl> *looks at winning card set* [9:34:48 PM] <Slendy> *Soundwave slooooooooowly turns to look at Starscream* [9:34:51 PM] <VProwl> *stares at Starscream* [9:34:57 PM] <Swerve> We've got eyes, okay [9:35:13 PM] <rodicron> I wish I had more optics. [9:35:16 PM] <rodicron> That seems like fun. [9:35:26 PM] <Kingscream> *wiggles eyebrows at PRowl* [9:35:37 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> Gross. [9:35:40 PM] <Slendy> [[He has sixteen. It is not as fun as you th....ink.]] *What's with the waggle. Why is Starscream waggling.* [9:35:42 PM] <VProwl> *optics slowly widen* [9:36:11 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> *Is offended at the first card.* [9:36:23 PM] <Slendy> *He's learning a whole lot about everyone at this table, Swerve apparently included.* [9:36:25 PM] <VProwl> *his processor fans audibly click on as he desperately tries to figure out whether Starscream is serious* [9:36:31 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> *Which one of you is talking about his side ho like that.* [9:36:35 PM] WindchillhasFeet wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [9:36:40 PM] <rodicron> It's true. [9:36:46 PM] <rodicron> Also, have a Rodimus Star. [9:36:57 PM] <Kingscream> *starscream is not serious. Starscream's pker face is also not the greatest so he'll just hide it in his cards now* [9:37:11 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> What is true? [9:37:20 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> *He was not paying attention.* [9:37:27 PM] <VProwl> *he is wildly misinterpreting Starscream's suddenly averted gaze as confirmation* [9:37:30 PM] <rodicron> Starscream being teenage human bait. [9:37:34 PM] rodicron wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [9:37:39 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> Gross, man. [9:38:18 PM] <rodicron> Yeah, leave him on Earth long enough and a bunch of them will just attach themselves to him. It's weird. [9:38:21 PM] <VProwl> *gazes vacantly into space* [9:38:24 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> I have seen teenaged humans and it's not great. [9:38:35 PM] <Slendy> @P: [[....Should he clear time for you and Starscream to talk after this game...?]] [9:38:36 PM] <VProwl> *....................................................... OH right he's supposed to choose a card* [9:38:41 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> One gave me a smelly candle though. [9:38:53 PM] Kingscream wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [9:39:00 PM] <rodicron> That sounds like a party. [9:39:05 PM] <rodicron> A nerd party. [9:39:07 PM] <VProwl> @S «/Yes./» [9:39:27 PM] <Swerve> Urgh throw away hand again [9:39:41 PM] <Slendy> *Starts slightly at the force behind that thought. Just - nods, awkwardly. He's a good and helpful amica, and by Primus, he will help Prowl hit that.* [9:39:45 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> I really need someone to win more cards than I have like, immediately. [9:39:56 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> Else I have to eat myself and that's just awkward. [9:40:06 PM] <Kingscream> *starscream would be laughing so hard if he knew what Prowl and Soundwave were saying* [9:40:12 PM] <rodicron> Give you five shanix to do it right now. [9:40:19 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> What? [9:40:20 PM] <Slendy> [[He's seen some mechs do that when they get hungry. Wings are usually easy to spare if you have them.]] [9:40:30 PM] <Swerve> Sounds like fun. [9:40:31 PM] Swerve wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [9:40:48 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> Not if you need to fly at any point. [9:41:18 PM] <Slendy> [[Presumably if you are so desperate for energy you would eat your own wings, you wouldn't have enough for flight anyway.]] [9:41:20 PM] <Swerve> The butt wiggle's funny as hell though. [9:41:20 PM] <+Lieutenant> Psh [9:41:25 PM] <asksmokescreen> OH i'm the judge [9:41:27 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> Easier to eat the other guy and make your escape with the wings you still have. [9:41:29 PM] rodicron wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [9:41:34 PM] <asksmokescreen> ... [9:41:35 PM] <rodicron> [quieeeeetly not gonna say anything in the 'eating' field, because he was told not to and this card game looks like more fun than naking on someone] [9:42:01 PM] <Swerve> Damn it once again I have good cards I can't use. [9:42:06 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> Tragic. [9:42:09 PM] <Slendy> [[And once again he has nothing.]] [9:42:16 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> I shed a single tear for you both. [9:42:20 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> You have to share. [9:42:22 PM] <Slendy> [[You'd think his deployers would at least deal him ones worth his time.]] [9:42:28 PM] <Slendy> [[So much for loyalty.]] [9:42:35 PM] <rodicron> Eh, maybe they're good at not being biased. [9:42:36 PM] <rodicron> (( also i want that 'unicanyounot' on a t-shirt )) [9:42:52 PM] <Swerve> God there's three whole choices I can't pick them all. [9:42:53 PM] <Slendy> [[Oh, pick the third. He likes the third.]] [9:42:59 PM] asksmokescreen wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [9:43:01 PM] <asksmokescreen> You would- [9:43:02 PM] <asksmokescreen> YES [9:43:07 PM] Play 2 cards, in the order you wish them to be judged. [9:43:07 PM] <Slendy> [[Damn.]] [9:43:07 PM] <VProwl> So much for pandering. [9:43:09 PM] <rodicron> there's [9:43:10 PM] <asksmokescreen> Swerve I will clean all your floors [9:43:11 PM] <rodicron> two? [9:43:17 PM] <Swerve> My bar was good though. [9:43:22 PM] <+Lieutenant> Who is Magnus Vision? [9:43:26 PM] <Slendy> [[....Magnus Vision? What is Magnus Vision?]] [9:43:40 PM] <Swerve> Never heard of him [9:43:41 PM] <Swerve> Her [9:43:41 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> I'm afraid to find out. [9:43:42 PM] <+Lieutenant> Oh thank Primes, not alone in this confusion [9:43:43 PM] <Swerve> ? [9:43:44 PM] <asksmokescreen> I think Ultra Magnus just has really bad vision! [9:43:46 PM] <VProwl> I've never met him. [9:43:47 PM] <rodicron> I have way too many Megatron-centric cards. [9:43:50 PM] <asksmokescreen> Like, he probably needs glasses or something. [9:43:56 PM] <rodicron> Magnus ALWAYS has bad visions. [9:44:05 PM] <rodicron> Or his optics are bad. [9:44:07 PM] <rodicron> Whichever. [9:44:14 PM] <+Lieutenant> OH [9:44:15 PM] <+Lieutenant> WAIT [9:44:20 PM] <Slendy> [[...What's Faceless Prowl?]] *Turn.* [[Have you ever not had a face?]] [9:44:21 PM] <+Lieutenant> Magus' vision [9:44:22 PM] <VProwl> ... Who in the world is "Faceless Prowl"? [9:44:28 PM] <VProwl> No. I've had one since I was built. [9:44:38 PM] <+Lieutenant> Really needs and apostrophe [9:44:42 PM] <rodicron> Dude gets fragged over a datapad out of place, so a bit of fun-juice might do something bad to him. [9:44:42 PM] <+Lieutenant> *an [9:44:47 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> Maybe it's a vision from the future. [9:44:48 PM] <Swerve> I think it's that one universe's Prowl who is a bird? [9:45:00 PM] <VProwl> I'm a /bird/? [9:45:01 PM] <rodicron> PROWL'S A BIRD??? [9:45:01 PM] <Swerve> IS he a bird? Maybe he's a wolf. [9:45:12 PM] Swerve wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [9:45:18 PM] <Swerve> Wolf bird? That universe is confusing, it's where they're all animals. [9:45:18 PM] <Slendy> [[Nonsense. That Prowl has a face. And don't let the twins hear you talking about messing with Ultra Magnus. He already had to bail them out this week.]] [9:45:44 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> *throwaway card time* [9:45:44 PM] <rodicron> Wouldn't a wolf-bird be a bat? [9:45:51 PM] <rodicron> PROWL ARE YOU A BAT BOI [9:45:54 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> No, bats are mice. [9:45:58 PM] <VProwl> Volume. [9:45:58 PM] <Slendy> [[No, a wolf-bird is a Silverbolt. Keep up.]] [9:46:35 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> *The cannon amuses him.* [9:46:36 PM] VProwl wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [9:46:40 PM] <asksmokescreen> ... Don't use knives on Black Shadow [9:46:45 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> Who? [9:46:50 PM] <rodicron> That's his name? [9:46:54 PM] <asksmokescreen> He's a really stinky phase sixer [9:46:55 PM] <rodicron> Dang. [9:46:58 PM] <+Lieutenant> I am now officially losing and thriving. [9:47:06 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> Why...is he stinky? [9:47:14 PM] <asksmokescreen> 'Cause he never bathes! [9:47:25 PM] <Slendy> *Huffs quietly at the last round's winning card* [9:47:26 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> Oh, figures. [9:47:29 PM] <rodicron> Uh, not many mechanicals DO. [9:47:32 PM] <rodicron> ... right? [9:47:36 PM] <asksmokescreen> ... [9:47:39 PM] <asksmokescreen> Stinkymus [9:47:41 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> Uh no. [9:47:47 PM] <rodicron> I mean, i wax a lot, but cleaning supply is expensive. [9:47:51 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> I bathe, my boyfriend bathes...Overlord bathes... [9:47:59 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> Okay, maybe that's it. [9:48:02 PM] asksmokescreen wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [9:48:07 PM] <Slendy> [[As a flight model, he keeps himself very clean.]] [9:48:10 PM] <rodicron> Overlord's also a weirdo. [9:48:15 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> *Gasps.* [9:48:18 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> That's true. [9:48:21 PM] <+Lieutenant> *internally claws at the bags under his eyes at the non-bathing folks* [9:48:35 PM] <rodicron> WAX MAKES ME SMELL GOOD [9:48:36 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> Not because he bathes, though. [9:48:54 PM] <Slendy> [[Please, do refrain from shouting. Some of us have sensitive audio receptors.]] *Taps the side of his head.* [9:49:02 PM] <rodicron> Oh, sorry dude. [9:49:05 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> *Thank you.* [9:49:13 PM] Slendy wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [9:49:14 PM] <Slendy> *Nods.* [[Most appreciated.]] [9:49:24 PM] <Slendy> [[...Not a fan of the little red mech, Windchill?]] [9:49:29 PM] <rodicron> My boss isn't keen on us getting in water or using cleaning solution, tho'. [9:49:35 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> It was the only one that made any sense to me. [9:49:36 PM] <rodicron> So not bathing isn't my fault. [9:49:43 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> Never met the guy. [9:50:10 PM] <Slendy> [[Hmph. Terrible supervising standards, then.]] [9:50:10 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> But I realize that I made a decision a little too quickly there. [9:50:28 PM] <rodicron> [leeaaaaaaans up on his tippy-pedes] [9:50:40 PM] <VProwl> ... "Ants" is the organic term for one's creator's siblings, correct? [9:50:53 PM] <rodicron> Eh, close enough. [9:50:53 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> ...Let's say yes. [9:50:55 PM] Slendy wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [9:50:57 PM] <Slendy> [[No, no. That is Aunts. Ants are the insects.]] [9:51:03 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> Damn it. [9:51:10 PM] <rodicron> Yeah, but ants have aunts don't they? [9:51:13 PM] <rodicron> Totally counts. [9:51:18 PM] <Kingscream> ....*sqints* [9:51:20 PM] <Kingscream> *looks down* [9:51:26 PM] <Slendy> @P: [[He thinks you know the answer to this one.]] *Humor ping.* [9:51:38 PM] <rodicron> [reachies to touchie the screamy leg] [9:52:00 PM] <Kingscream> Unfortunately none of these cards are in anyway topical EXCUSE ME! [9:52:01 PM] Hurry up! You have less than 10 seconds to decide, or you will be skipped. [9:52:01 PM] <+Lieutenant> *Will probably count this as his last round* [9:52:01 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> *Struggles to use a grammatically not-atrocious card. It's no good.* [9:52:01 PM] <Swerve> [also looks at Star's elgs] [9:52:02 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> *He tried.* [9:52:04 PM] <Slendy> *Is, apparently, the only one NOT looking at the leg.* [9:52:08 PM] <rodicron> Hey, my optics are bad. Feeling things out makes things way clearer. [9:52:26 PM] <Slendy> [[Do not put your claws where they are unwanted. This is not that kind of club.]] [9:52:29 PM] <Kingscream> I advise you to keep your hands to yourself. [9:52:29 PM] <VProwl> @S «....... You're correct.» [9:52:32 PM] <rodicron> ... yo, what's a Spark Extractor? [9:52:35 PM] VProwl wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds.

(for reference, Prowl’s winning card:)

[9:52:44 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> It sounds like it extracts sparks. [9:52:45 PM] <Slendy> @P: [[So he is.]] [9:52:46 PM] <Swerve> Man your legs get around. [9:52:51 PM] <+Lieutenant> ((Night everyone! )) [9:52:55 PM] <rodicron> Yeah, but where do you /get/ one. [9:52:57 PM] <Slendy> ((night! thanm you for coming!)) [9:53:02 PM] Lieutenant has left the game. [9:53:07 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> If I knew? I wouldn't tell you. [9:53:22 PM] <VProwl> *spent a blank card on that and regrets nothing* [9:53:25 PM] <Slendy> [[You don't. It was used up.]] [9:53:31 PM] <Slendy> *It was the best blank card he's seen in ages.* [9:53:40 PM] <Kingscream> ((fghjk [9:53:41 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> In at least one dimension. There are others. [9:53:47 PM] <asksmokescreen> Hmmmm [9:53:50 PM] <Slendy> [[....He's sorry, First Aid's what.]] [9:53:51 PM] <asksmokescreen> This is a tough one [9:53:58 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> Can you not read? [9:54:01 PM] <asksmokescreen> Mostly 'cause I don't know what a webworld is! [9:54:05 PM] <Swerve> Oh, they're a medical aid. [9:54:05 PM] <asksmokescreen> I can read! Rude! [9:54:07 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> It says nipple clamps, quite clearly. [9:54:15 PM] Kingscream wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [9:54:23 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> Calm down, I'm picking on Soundwave. [9:54:24 PM] <rodicron> So like... do those go on the headlights or what? [9:54:26 PM] <Slendy> [[He can. He's surprised by how many Autobots have a thing for organics. But not as surprised as he should be.]] [9:54:35 PM] <Swerve> He uses them to jumpstart sparks! [9:54:45 PM] <Slendy> [[Nonsense. Humans do not have sparks.]] [9:54:46 PM] <rodicron> Jumpstart sparks is RIGHT. [9:55:03 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> Sounds a lot more practical than what I was thinking. [9:55:13 PM] <Kingscream> ((aaaugh im sorry i got things on discord distracting me, i gotta duck out [9:55:14 PM] <Swerve> Aid uses them to do that. He revived Fort Max with them. [9:55:16 PM] <Kingscream> ((Thanks ofr hosting [9:55:20 PM] <Slendy> ((awww okay, byeeee)) [9:55:24 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> (( Byyyye! )) [9:55:27 PM] <VProwl> ((you're breaking prowl's spark)) [9:55:30 PM] <rodicron> They could be practical. You just gotta hang stuff off 'm. [9:55:36 PM] rodicron wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [9:56:07 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> Like pasties. [9:56:12 PM] <Slendy> [[Oh. He supposes there were worse people to revive, then.]] [9:56:22 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> The kind with the tassels. [9:56:26 PM] <rodicron> Like those smelly dangle things that humans put in their cars. [9:56:27 PM] <Slendy> *Knows which card HE'D pick.* [9:56:33 PM] <rodicron> Hang those off your headlights. [9:56:41 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> No. [9:56:45 PM] <rodicron> Yep. [9:56:48 PM] The Card Czar has left the game. Cards played this round are being returned to hands. [9:56:48 PM] The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [9:56:48 PM] (Displayed state will look weird until the next round.) [9:56:48 PM] Kingscream has left the game. [9:56:49 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> No, [9:56:55 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> I refuse. [9:57:01 PM] <Slendy> [[Hm. Must have had important political business.]] [9:57:02 PM] <VProwl> *... just received a solid gold card.* [9:57:03 PM] <rodicron> Yes. [9:57:05 PM] <rodicron> Absolutely. [9:57:08 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> No. [9:57:09 PM] <rodicron> You can't deny it. [9:57:12 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> I have no headlights. [9:57:13 PM] <rodicron> It's happening. [9:57:16 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> So no. [9:57:16 PM] <rodicron> Someone is gonna do it. [9:57:25 PM] <Slendy> *Soundwave pats Prowl's knee under the table.* @P: [[Another time. You know you have him now.]] [9:57:40 PM] <rodicron> Or your cockpit. [9:57:48 PM] <rodicron> In your cockpit? [9:57:48 PM] <VProwl> *Starscream LEFT. he gave prowl THAT LOOK and then he LEFT* [9:58:02 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> Why would I do that? [9:58:12 PM] <Slendy> *He's playing hard to get. That's clearly it. It's a Starscream thing to do.* [9:58:23 PM] asksmokescreen wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [9:58:29 PM] <VProwl> @S «Do I? Or is he just going to tease me and run before I can retaliate.» [9:58:34 PM] <rodicron> The other good one triggers me. [9:58:38 PM] <rodicron> Kinda. [9:58:50 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> This should be fun. [9:58:53 PM] <rodicron> Been there, done that, didn't like where it ended or what it did to all my friends and me. [9:59:07 PM] <asksmokescreen> Oooh, I'm doing good this game! [9:59:17 PM] <rodicron> ... what's FIBRIR [9:59:25 PM] <Slendy> @P: [[Both. It's his way.]] [9:59:33 PM] <Swerve> Frenzy is Blue, Rumbis is Red. [9:59:34 PM] <Swerve> I think [9:59:34 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> Google that shit. [9:59:38 PM] <Slendy> [[It's true. No one calls him any of these things.]] [9:59:38 PM] <rodicron> Oh. [9:59:42 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> Google confirms. [9:59:46 PM] <rodicron> Don't they like switch their paintjobs tho'? [9:59:46 PM] VProwl wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [9:59:56 PM] <rodicron> That's what I'd do if I were a twin. [10:00:00 PM] <asksmokescreen> Frumble is Blue, Rumzy is red! [10:00:11 PM] <VProwl> *prowl's too emotionally devastated to be the card czar* [10:00:14 PM] <Slendy> [[Nonsense. Rumble's original color is orange and Frenzy's is green.]] [10:00:27 PM] <VProwl> ... Is that true? [10:00:36 PM] rodicron wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [10:00:42 PM] <Swerve> Really? [10:00:53 PM] <rodicron> Well, least that'd make 'm easy to see. [10:00:53 PM] <Slendy> [[Not in the slightest.]] [10:01:34 PM] <VProwl> I didn't' think so. [10:01:36 PM] <rodicron> Like how humans put their babies in brightly coloured clothing so they know where they are at all times. [10:02:01 PM] <VProwl> *he'd better win this round.* [10:02:05 PM] <rodicron> Because taping a radio to your kid is apparently illegal or something. [10:02:10 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> I think the constant screaming gives them away. [10:02:15 PM] <Slendy> *...But there already IS a playset of two of those things...* [10:02:30 PM] <rodicron> Yeah, but you gotta find him when they're NOT screaming. That's the trick. [10:02:37 PM] <rodicron> Screaming means they're still alive. [10:02:43 PM] The Card Czar has taken too long to decide and has been skipped. Cards played this round are being returned to hands. [10:02:53 PM] <Swerve> Aw [10:02:57 PM] <Slendy> ((DAMN IT i picked it give the damn point)) [10:03:04 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> Why are you looking for dead babies? [10:03:10 PM] <rodicron> Almost dead-babies. [10:03:11 PM] <Swerve> ((good job cah)) [10:03:26 PM] <Slendy> ((whoever had "my backup conjunx endura" you had it)) [10:03:28 PM] <rodicron> I'd be a terrible carrier. [10:03:43 PM] Slendy was kicked for being idle for too many rounds. [10:03:43 PM] Slendy has left the game. [10:03:45 PM] <asksmokescreen> Appease meeee [10:03:48 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> (( I have at least three cards I've already played in my deck lololol. )) [10:03:51 PM] VProwl wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [10:03:52 PM] Slendy has joined the game. [10:03:52 PM] <Swerve> ((lmao that was mine)) [10:03:53 PM] <rodicron> ... well, there goes the host. [10:03:56 PM] <asksmokescreen> ... Oh [10:04:04 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> (( Wowee CAH is really having a go at us tonight. )) [10:04:06 PM] <Slendy> ((ARRRRGH my points)) [10:04:13 PM] <asksmokescreen> ((rip [10:04:17 PM] <VProwl> ((f)) [10:04:21 PM] <Swerve> ((rip [10:04:30 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> (( they will be missed. )) [10:04:36 PM] asksmokescreen wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [10:04:43 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> Only one of those rhymed. [10:04:54 PM] <Slendy> ((friggin ding dang game stole my points)) [10:05:10 PM] <Swerve> ((it did [10:05:34 PM] <Slendy> ((and now it won't let me see a chat)) [10:05:39 PM] VProwl wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [10:05:48 PM] <VProwl> ((you can't see us?)) [10:05:52 PM] <rodicron> MORE CURLY STRAWS [10:05:54 PM] <VProwl> ((....... wait why am i asking)) [10:05:57 PM] <rodicron> oh, crap, sorry. [10:06:00 PM] <rodicron> More curly straws! [10:06:03 PM] <Swerve> ((tfdhgbfg [10:06:05 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> Better. [10:06:25 PM] <rodicron> I try. [10:06:28 PM] <rodicron> Sometimes. [10:06:34 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> *He pauses to play Flight Rising while y'all pick cards.* [10:06:39 PM] VProwl wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [10:06:42 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> Gun. [10:06:43 PM] <rodicron> g u n [10:06:50 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> I know what I'm about. [10:06:54 PM] <Slendy> *Apparently, abruptly bridges in and out of the room with a loud vent rattle.* [10:07:07 PM] <VProwl> *glances at* Everything alright? [10:07:11 PM] <Slendy> *...Calmly and casually smooths his armor down and dusts off invisible dirt once he reappears.* [10:07:14 PM] <rodicron> ... wow, whatever's going on with that guy looks uncomfortable. [10:07:24 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> That was dramatic. [10:07:31 PM] <Slendy> [[A glitch. Pay it no mind.]] [10:07:38 PM] <VProwl> *... quietly pets arm* [10:07:40 PM] <Swerve> Do you need a moment [10:07:58 PM] <rodicron> Or maybe he needs that last card. [10:07:59 PM] WindchillhasFeet wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [10:08:00 PM] <Slendy> [[No, no, he's fine.]] *Leans into the pets.* [10:08:28 PM] <Slendy> [[...He knows and he isn't telling any of you.]] [10:08:38 PM] asksmokescreen wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [10:08:39 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> *He is forced to pick the only grammatically correct card in his hand.* [10:08:47 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> Nice. [10:08:51 PM] <rodicron> Me not doing the thing is always applicable. [10:08:53 PM] <asksmokescreen> Soundwave, I've always loved you [10:08:58 PM] <rodicron> I love doing things. [10:08:59 PM] <Slendy> [[WHAT.]] [10:09:04 PM] <asksmokescreen> You gave me a point! [10:09:09 PM] <Swerve> [chokes] [10:09:15 PM] <rodicron> Awww. [10:09:20 PM] <rodicron> Young love. [10:09:24 PM] <asksmokescreen> Wait, no [10:09:25 PM] <rodicron> Or old love. [10:09:28 PM] <asksmokescreen> No, no, I was kidding! [10:09:32 PM] <Slendy> [[You had better be.]] [10:09:32 PM] <rodicron> Hard to tell with you round-framers. [10:09:43 PM] rodicron wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [10:09:47 PM] <VProwl> *... pets his arm some more.* [10:09:49 PM] <Swerve> I dunno, he's more noodle than round. [10:09:50 PM] <rodicron> Ha ha! [10:09:52 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> Yeah, okay. [10:09:55 PM] <asksmokescreen> ... What, I can't be a fan of you, Soundwave? [10:09:55 PM] <rodicron> Noodles are round. [10:10:15 PM] Slendy wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [10:10:25 PM] <asksmokescreen> ... Phase 6 isn't awesome in theory who put that down [10:10:40 PM] <rodicron> I'd love to have six alts. That sounds rad. [10:10:43 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> Uh, wasn't me. [10:10:46 PM] <asksmokescreen> That's... That's not [10:10:47 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> No idea what that is. [10:10:47 PM] <rodicron> Two of them would be giant fists. [10:10:51 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> And you know what? [10:10:55 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> I'm okay with that. [10:10:55 PM] <Slendy> *...Is curious about the arm petting. ... Pets an arm back?* [10:11:03 PM] asksmokescreen wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [10:11:07 PM] <rodicron> Yeah.

[10:11:15 PM] <VProwl> *... affection ping.* [10:11:20 PM] <asksmokescreen> I. I was throwing away a card [10:11:22 PM] <VProwl> *oooh film noir* [10:11:43 PM] <Swerve> ((me, remembering the hot rod/rodimus x daniel fics i've seen [10:11:51 PM] <Slendy> [[You can be a fan of him. He can't stop you; Primus knows he tried. But he has no interest in dating you, Smokescreen.]] *oooh, affection ping. Three back. Good.* [10:11:55 PM] <rodicron> o h [10:12:06 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> *Steeples talons.* [10:12:10 PM] <VProwl> *ping ping.* [10:12:46 PM] <asksmokescreen> I mean- I don't wanna date you, either. But I'm glad we're friends. [10:12:54 PM] Swerve wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [10:13:04 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> Kawaii. [10:13:05 PM] <rodicron> I dunno about ya'll, but the Kiss Players universe sounds like a party. Uncle won't let anyone go there, sure, but it sounds weird. [10:13:21 PM] <Slendy> [[His alternate's laugh is not cute. It is unnerving, as it should be.]] [10:13:31 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> It's kawaii. [10:13:35 PM] <VProwl> *grimaces* I get to judge the card that says the Decepticon cause was noble? [10:13:37 PM] <Swerve> I mean. POtato, pohtato. [10:13:39 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> The cards are never wrong. [10:13:52 PM] <Slendy> [[Pretend you're him.]] [10:14:05 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> Pretend you're not a functionist. [10:14:11 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> Just for a few moments. [10:14:16 PM] <rodicron> Pretend you never had money. [10:14:17 PM] <Slendy> *Tiny bristle.* [10:14:43 PM] Hurry up! You have less than 10 seconds to decide, or you will be skipped. [10:14:47 PM] Swerve wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [10:14:52 PM] <VProwl> *... puts a hologram triangle shaped vaguely like soundwave's mask in front of his face.* [10:14:59 PM] <VProwl> *chooses a card at random because he can't see them.* [10:15:05 PM] <rodicron> Also, pretty sure Lubricant was a base part of the Autobots. I bet Optimus was into some weird stuff. [10:15:21 PM] <Slendy> *Decides to respond by placing Prowl's face on his own screen. Can, however, still see through it.* [10:15:41 PM] <rodicron> Aw, couple cosplaying. [10:15:54 PM] VProwl wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds.

[10:16:10 PM] <asksmokescreen> Oh, man, we've got a three way going on now points-wise [10:16:10 PM] <rodicron> Relationships are weird. [10:16:12 PM] <Slendy> *Drops his own mask.* [10:16:27 PM] <Slendy> *The fake one. Not his actual one. He's still back to the full visor right now.* [10:16:37 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> *Has no idea what any of his cards mean. That's okay.* [10:16:40 PM] <VProwl> *which prowl has been meaning to ask about.* [10:16:44 PM] rodicron wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [10:16:58 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> Prepare to be eaten. [10:17:01 PM] <Slendy> *Checks the scores. .... Tense.* [10:17:05 PM] <rodicron> Kinky. [10:17:19 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> I'll do it. [10:17:23 PM] <rodicron> Please do. [10:17:25 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> Don't think that I won't. [10:17:30 PM] WindchillhasFeet wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [10:17:31 PM] <rodicron> I'm right here. [10:17:40 PM] <Swerve> How did you know about the pole [10:17:45 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> You have to win first. [10:17:50 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> I took a wild guess. [10:17:52 PM] <rodicron> Swerve, everyone knows about the pole. [10:18:01 PM] <asksmokescreen> Who's Carl [10:18:04 PM] <Swerve> No they don't, it's in the backroom. [10:18:06 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> Call it intuition. [10:18:07 PM] <rodicron> Your mom. [10:18:07 PM] <Slendy> *Does not know about the pole. Does not say this.* [10:18:34 PM] <rodicron> I got lots of poles stashed places too, buddy. [10:18:35 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> Is there really a pole, though? [10:18:39 PM] asksmokescreen wins the round. The next round will begin in 8 seconds. [10:18:41 PM] <asksmokescreen> YAY [10:18:42 PM] <rodicron> Hehehe. [10:18:44 PM] <Swerve> I mean, yes. [10:18:49 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> Well, you know what that means. [10:18:54 PM] <asksmokescreen> I'm the winner now! So- I get one of those stars, right? [10:18:55 PM] <asksmokescreen> ... Wait [10:19:00 PM] <asksmokescreen> Wait, I don't wanna be eaten [10:19:04 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> *Licks his lips grossly.* [10:19:05 PM] <Slendy> *Ravage SMILES.* [10:19:09 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> Then why did you win? [10:19:11 PM] <rodicron> Y'can have a star, tho'. [10:19:14 PM] <asksmokescreen> I didn't mean to! [10:19:18 PM] <asksmokescreen> I'm just too funny, I guess. [10:19:20 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> *Cackles.* [10:19:27 PM] <asksmokescreen> Come on, I taste bad. [10:19:37 PM] <asksmokescreen> Soundwave? Can you, uh, help me? [10:19:45 PM] <Slendy> *And slooooowly creeps across the table with his mouth open as wide as it can go. Which is, in fact, wide enough to bite on a bot's head.* [10:19:51 PM] <Swerve> He doesn't bathe, do you really wanna eat him [10:19:58 PM] <asksmokescreen> *BEEPS* [10:19:59 PM] <Slendy> =I've eaten worse.= [10:20:06 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> He can't be any grosser than my mouth already is. [10:20:09 PM] <asksmokescreen> *He's getting behind the couch* [10:20:15 PM] <asksmokescreen> I'll phase myself into the couch [10:20:22 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> *Stands up. He's on approach.* [10:20:27 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> Come on, don't be like that. [10:20:33 PM] <Slendy> [[Ravage, you're scattering the cards.]] [10:20:40 PM] <asksmokescreen> ... Swerve? Can you help me? [10:20:55 PM] <Slendy> *Ravage sits, closes his mouth, and pouts.* =But it was funny.= [10:20:58 PM] rodicron has left the game. [10:21:01 PM] <asksmokescreen> *Running to hide behind Swerve either way!* [10:21:10 PM] <Swerve> [snorts] [10:21:15 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> *Puts his hands on his hips.* [10:21:16 PM] <Swerve> I'll trade a box of scraps? [10:21:18 PM] <Slendy> [[Smokescreen, flee before he holds you to your word. Everyone else - he should clean this up.]] [10:21:34 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> So we should all flee? [10:21:48 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> I'm down with that. [10:21:48 PM] <asksmokescreen> Can do! I'm a pretty fast runner! Thank you for having us, Soundwave! [10:21:55 PM] <Slendy> [[Unless you wish to be bridged to the trash incinerator or devoured by Ravage, yes, probably.]] [10:22:00 PM] <Slendy> [[Quite welcome, Smokescreen.]] [10:22:04 PM] <asksmokescreen> *Smokescreen is running to the bridge as fast as he can!* [10:22:19 PM] <Swerve> Bye Smokes. Later everyone. [10:22:23 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> *Forgets about eating Smokescreen and gathers up the cards within reach, at least.* [10:22:58 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> Sounds like a plan. [10:22:58 PM] <Slendy> *Ravage makes a point of creeping towards that gathering hand* [10:23:21 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> *Squints. His mouth is bigger.* [10:23:36 PM] <Slendy> *And Soundwave will murder Windchill horribly if he tries biting the deployer.* [10:23:58 PM] asksmokescreen has left the game. [10:24:03 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> *And nothing of value would be lost.* [10:24:13 PM] Swerve has left the game. [10:24:19 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> Guess we'll have to eat Smokescreen next time. [10:24:20 PM] <Slendy> *Fair, but it probably would put a damper on a fun evening.* [10:24:26 PM] <Slendy> [[Yes, you shall.]] [10:24:36 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> Don't let me forget. [10:24:44 PM] <Slendy> [[He won't. It'll amuse him.]] [10:24:51 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> *Okay, he's don't with the cards now.* [10:24:54 PM] <WindchillhasFeet> Byeeeee. [10:24:59 PM] <Slendy> [[Farewell.]] [10:25:45 PM] <VProwl> *they alone? yes? okay good.* [10:25:49 PM] <VProwl> You switched back to your full mask. [10:26:33 PM] WindchillhasFeet has left the game. [10:26:39 PM] <Slendy> [[That was the fastest they've ever disappeared. He should have used the threat of mechannibalism soone-- oh.]] *Lifts a hand. Touches his mask.* [[Yes. He did.]] [10:26:59 PM] <Slendy> *That is a fascinating floor, that's what that is. Boy, look at it doing its floor thing.* [10:27:11 PM] <VProwl> ... Is everything alright? [10:28:00 PM] <Slendy> [[...He doesn't know.]] [10:28:41 PM] <VProwl> *that's even worse than a "no."* ... Do you want to talk about it? [10:29:45 PM] <Slendy> *Soundwave's attention moves from the floor to a chair, and then to his hands. After a moment, it goes back to the floor, but his hands twitch.* [[He should.]] [10:30:10 PM] <Slendy> *Drops the cards on the table and gets up to move to... wherever their usual couch is now. There it is. That's more comfy, somehow.* [10:30:19 PM] <Slendy> *Ping. Join him?* [10:30:50 PM] <VProwl> *joins. sits. offers hand? not sure if this is a thing where soundwave will need a hand.* [10:32:24 PM] <Slendy> *He takes it, but mostly to fiddle with Prowl's fingertips. A distraction, not a comfort. He needs to keep too much focus used up on that to stop from thinking back too far.* [10:33:41 PM] <VProwl> *whatever it's useful for. ... that kinda feels nice actually.* [10:33:41 PM] <Slendy> [[It really is different. His mouth.]] *Press fingertip.* [[Not a trend. Not common. Not friendly.]] [10:35:11 PM] <VProwl> *someone, somewhere, said something rude about soundwave's mouth, and prowl automatically hates them.* ... It IS different. It's not bad. [10:36:55 PM] <Slendy> [[He doesn't think it is good. He never sees anything like it on good... beings. Mechs, or beasts. Or aliens.]] [10:38:15 PM] <Slendy> [[He recognizes that xenomorphs are not appealing creatures to most beings. And that most who wore fangs during the war were skilled killers.]] *And that a certain Insecticon does, which he won't say. [10:38:29 PM] <VProwl> *skeptically* You think there's a causal relationship between your teeth shape and your morality? [10:40:49 PM] <Slendy> [[He doesn't know. He never - the only creatures with mouths like his are widely considered monsters.]] *Pause. Quieter:* [[Even the ones who are supposed to be heroes.]] [10:41:36 PM] <Slendy> [[And he knows who he has been. It is hard to ignore the possibility.]] [10:41:57 PM] <VProwl> *oh. this is about the movie.* ... He saved a planet he was sent to destroy. [10:42:37 PM] <Slendy> [[Only because he liked his - host.]] [10:45:24 PM] <VProwl> And through him, recognized the worth of the species and decided he wanted the planet to be protected. So he and his mouth protected it. [10:48:04 PM] <Slendy> [[And stayed in the host's head after doing things that--]] *The energy behind that sentence starts out as a heated reply and quickly crumbles and falls apart. He doesn't want to remind Prowl again.* [10:48:48 PM] <Slendy> [[After everything.]] [10:50:41 PM] <VProwl> ... By the end, his host wanted him there. He liked him. It started out as an invasion, but—it wasn't one by the end. [10:56:38 PM] <Slendy> [[But it did happen. It is always going to be something that happened. And it is - like that, too. Him. And - others, without the good ending.]] *Distraction intensifies.* [[There is so much--]] [10:57:02 PM] <Slendy> [[He does not know how you can look.]] [10:57:58 PM] <VProwl> Wh-- Look at what, /you/? I like looking at you. [10:58:41 PM] <VProwl> ... You think I don't want to look at you because your teeth superficially resemble the teeth of an alien whose unique biological abilities superficially resemble something bad that happened to me? [10:59:00 PM] <Slendy> [[Among other shared traits.]] [10:59:42 PM] <Slendy> [[You did not react well to it, and you do not react well to other superficial resemblances, and...]] [11:00:40 PM] <VProwl> Yeah no, your teeth are quite a few degrees removed from ANYthing that-- Take off your mask. Let me see your face. [11:02:19 PM] <Slendy> *He's still and quiet as death itself for a long, long moment, to the point that someone wouldn't be blamed for scanning to see if his spark had abruptly faded out.* [11:03:14 PM] <VProwl> *immediately deflates and looks away.* You don't have to. [11:03:25 PM] <Slendy> *But Prowl told him to do it, and Primus knows he has a hard time denying his amica anything. So off it goes, a little bit at a time.* [11:04:41 PM] <Slendy> *He is not, however, looking straight at Prowl for once.* [11:06:28 PM] <VProwl> You... *the protest dies. He only watches Soundwave from the corner of his optic, though, trying to leave him with SOME privacy after so rudely demanding he give it up.* [11:08:59 PM] <Slendy> *He sets it in Prowl's lap. That way, Prowl can decide whether it has to go back on or not, and he can't shrink away and put it on again on his own out of cowardice. He already feels too weak as is.* [11:10:18 PM] <VProwl> *he looks down at it, then gently transfers it from his lap to Soundwave's.* I'm sorry. I shouldn't have asked you to take it off when you didn't want to. [11:12:44 PM] <Slendy> [[He doesn't want to remind you of it.]] *An odd reply. More correction than protest or agreement.* [11:14:27 PM] <Slendy> *And possibly the quietest he's been all evening:* [[He doesn't want you to run away.]] [11:14:52 PM] <VProwl> You d— *shocked look* [11:16:46 PM] <VProwl> *... he leans in to give Soundwave a very light kiss.* I'm not running away. [11:20:44 PM] <Slendy> *Soundwave leans into that out of habit for a second. Then he's just kind of still.* [[Are you sure. You do not have to be - he does not want you to - to be an Autobot.]] *For lack of better [11:20:56 PM] <Slendy> description of what he's trying to say.* [[About it. If that's what it is.]] [11:22:59 PM] <VProwl> *Soundwave gets the most perplexed look. Give him a minute to work that out.* ... You... think I'm afraid of you but trying to be courageous? [11:23:11 PM] <Slendy> [[You would not be the first.]] [11:24:15 PM] <Slendy> *Or kind if it isn't meant. They do that, too.* [11:25:23 PM] <VProwl> *for the briefest moment, a look of pain flashes across Prowl's face. And then his expression smooths out again.* Tell me what I did to make you think I'm afraid of you, so I can never do it again. [11:28:22 PM] <Slendy> *He caught that. And now he knows. And regrets that he ever put that look there, however briefly.* [[...He's sorry. He shouldn't have doubted you.]] [11:30:05 PM] <VProwl> What did I do to /make/ you doubt me? *it's all well and good if Soundwave realizes he was wrong, but something gave him the idea in the first place. If it was anything Prowl can change...* [11:36:03 PM] <Slendy> [[Nothing. Not directly. It is - he observes. He sees similarities, and he - does not understand where the differences are, between him and them. Or why you do not do as others have done. He does not [11:36:39 PM] <Slendy> know and cannot see them. It is hard for him to believe anything he does not know or see or understand.]] [11:38:13 PM] <VProwl> There's no similarity. The only way to get from you to them is through a character in a movie that happens to share traits with you and traits with them. [11:38:32 PM] <VProwl> There's not a venn diagram between your face and what happened to me. There's a venn diagram between your face and venom and between venom and what happened to me. [11:39:31 PM] <VProwl> ... And you're taking action based on how you thought I felt instead of asking me how I felt, again. [11:43:28 PM] <Slendy> [[No, he-- it isn't--]] *Deflates.* [[He was--]] *Pulls his hands back.* [[He was /afraid/. It was - it felt safer not to ask. Then he didn't have to know. If he didn't ask, and it /was/ true, [11:43:45 PM] <Slendy> then he could - pretend it wasn't, a little longer.]] [11:47:17 PM] <VProwl> *He desperately wants to reach for Soundwave's hands again—not for Soundwave but for himself. But he's already toed the line on one boundary tonight, he's not going to stomp across another.* [11:48:37 PM] <VProwl> *instead he tucks his hands in his lap.* I— I don't know—what to do with that. I—wish you hadn't felt like that. [11:48:56 PM] <Slendy> [[He's sorry.]] *He just didn't want Prowl to go.* [[He's sorry. He is. You only tell him the truth. You are - good, to him. He knows that. He shouldn't have doubted. He should have asked.]] [11:49:31 PM] <VProwl> I don't know how to reassure you that I don't feel the things you're afraid I feel when I don't know you fear them. I— All this because of a movie? [11:50:03 PM] <VProwl> *was this his fault? Soundwave said it wasn't, but if Prowl hadn't talked about Bombshell...* [11:53:59 PM] <Slendy> [[It is not your fault. It is his fault. He was - he has been weak, in many ways. Is, still. He should not have let that weakness take control of him over this - this movie, yes. He apologizes.]] [11:54:55 PM] <VProwl> *a tiny nod* ... How can I help? [11:55:05 PM] <Slendy> *He'll make one small reach for the hands in Prowl's lap, but not so invasively Prowl can't make it clear what he wants one way or another.* [11:56:56 PM] <VProwl> *oh thank god. seizes Soundwave's hands and squeezes tight.* [12:01:18 AM] <Slendy> [[...Do not turn back in fear from what we have been able to share because of this failure. Continue to tell him the truth. That is all the help he will ask. [12:01:47 AM] <Slendy> He will work to destroy his weakness in time. That is his to do.]] [12:03:29 AM] <VProwl> *what they've been able to share? what did they share besides some mutual panic and pain? they spent this evening fighting just to get back to status quo, they certainly didn't gain anything.* [12:04:11 AM] <Slendy> *He means he doesn't want Prowl to suddenly stop talking about painful things or upsetting things or personal things, or ANY things.* [12:04:51 AM] <VProwl> *yeah, prowl talking about things, which led to some mutual panic and pain.* [12:05:05 AM] <Slendy> *Which will pass in time.* [12:05:07 AM] <VProwl> *he doesn't indicate any assent to soundwave's request.* [12:05:19 AM] <Slendy> [[...Prowl?]] [12:06:45 AM] <VProwl> *squeezes Soundwave's hands.* We should recharge. [12:06:56 AM] <Slendy> [[...Please. Don't run away. Not now.]] [12:07:41 AM] <VProwl> I'm right here. [12:12:00 AM] <Slendy> [[Not physically. From - from talking. Don't let it push you back to keeping everything important to you sil--]] *He squeezes back and shakes his head.* [[You want to recharge. Let us go do that.]] [12:12:59 AM] <VProwl> *nods; stands.* [12:13:15 AM] <VProwl> *off to sleep* [12:14:00 AM] <Slendy> *And the same, albeit wishing he'd put his mask back on. He doesn't want Prowl to see the crack in his spark.*

Thebes: honestly it's probably just that someone let their imagination run wild when they saw a cat's eyes shining in hte dark caffienatedconfetti: the metaphor is "don't do drugs" Starscreamapillar: This does seem like a fever dream from being out in the rain too long. Knock Out: If there's a drug metaphor, it's "do as many drugs as possible." caffienatedconfetti: ASH Knock Out: GREEEH caffienatedconfetti: JFSKGHNM caffienatedconfetti: GREEEH caffienatedconfetti: seriously tho the look of joy on totoro's face when the rain hit the umbrella caffienatedconfetti: priceless Knock Out: "Totoro gave us a lovely present tied with dragon lungs.

Knock Out: Who cares if they are? Knock Out: I'd like to see this when I die. Starscreamapillar: They sure do not seem to. caffienatedconfetti: they're not dead!!! i hate that theory caffienatedconfetti: totoro is a story about childhood wonder and dealing with family struggles Knock Out: I didn't read it that way. Just saying, it's the softest depiction of the afterlife I've ever seen. Knock Out: Or would be, rather. caffienatedconfetti: sorry, that interpretation is just a pet peeve caffienatedconfetti: you're right, tho Knock Out: It does seem like it would be gilding the lily. Knock Out: I like that it's a tale about nothing. caffienatedconfetti: hm Knock Out: It does seem like it would be gilding the lily. Knock Out: I like that it's a tale about nothing. caffienatedconfetti: hm caffienatedconfetti: yeah, i think you're right thenightetc: ...Nanny.  No. caffienatedconfetti: sometimes it's nice to indulge in something cute and small Starscreamapillar: That is reckless to tell children thenightetc: It really is. caffienatedconfetti: what'd she say? thenightetc: That if the mom ate the vegetables she'd be cured. caffienatedconfetti: ooooooh dear Knock Out: Someone else please watch these children. Starscreamapillar: Clearly she cannot really watch them. caffienatedconfetti: lay off the old lady starscream Starscreamapillar: Never. Knock Out: Oh, but she sounds like the old human from the sticky buddy dub. Jalaperilo: hah! caffienatedconfetti: oh goodness thenightetc: GOAT EYES. caffienatedconfetti: AHHHH caffienatedconfetti: AHHHH caffienatedconfetti: NO Jalaperilo: i love goats caffienatedconfetti: sorry but that one looked terrifying caffienatedconfetti: beign angry and sad is tiring Jalaperilo: is that why i'm knackered all the time? caffienatedconfetti: probs thenightetc: ...I don't think it's "just a cold" Knock Out: Stop saying unhelpful things! thenightetc: Oh my god! thenightetc: Now if she DOES die it'll be like she was deliberately leaving! Starscreamapillar: Indeed. Knock Out: "Mommy's lungs are filling up with cottage cheese because you were naughty once." Jalaperilo: *** hell knock Thebes: WHY is she the only option for babysitting! thenightetc: And now apparently Mei's run off to bring her corn, because Nanny said the corn would make her get better. caffienatedconfetti: because they're in the middle of nowhere thenightetc: Good.  Job. thenightetc: "So, your four-year-old's missing... I may have told her some.... things... anyway, it's not my fault" caffienatedconfetti: hey, she wasn't being malicious Jalaperilo: we had TB vaccines in school as a nationwide program as a kid, but we had to have a Heaf test before to see if we were immune. and i was the only one in the year group of 200 to reacted positive. Jalaperilo: i've never had tb previously, or been near someone who had, so they guessed I was a dormant carrier Jalaperilo: so i cant wait for my lungs to fill with cottage cheese thenightetc: s...so some other small child may have drowned there. Starscreamapillar: Well, it is apparently easy for them to just wander off. Knock Out: I'm sure that won't happen. And if it does, they'll offer you more substantial treatment than corn. Jalaperilo: hah Jalaperilo: and here i was already shucking a corn caffienatedconfetti: "whhhhhaaaa slow down bby" caffienatedconfetti: "im sleep" caffienatedconfetti: "oh my god dont cry" caffienatedconfetti: RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWR caffienatedconfetti: the catbus cometh Jalaperilo: ngl. totoro is a bit terrifying caffienatedconfetti: just a lil caffienatedconfetti: but his teeth aren't sharp so no flesh-eating there Knock Out: Unless he swallows you whole. Starscreamapillar: The flat teeth are to shatter your bones. Jalaperilo: the 4 year old is missing so we're gonna let the 11 year old run off as well caffienatedconfetti: you're thinking of hippos Starscreamapillar: That cannot be good for the power lines. caffienatedconfetti: blink Knock Out: It's an anatomically correct bus. Lovely! caffienatedconfetti: rowr caffienatedconfetti: blink Jalaperilo: it looks like the mother has hydrocephalus as well Starscreamapillar: 'They'll be fine' as they both manage to run away. caffienatedconfetti: blink caffienatedconfetti: cern Knock Out: Well, it's reached her brain. Knock Out: Oh, that's too charming. thenightetc: It is! Knock Out: Alright. So the girls are NOT dead, but if they were, it would be Nanny's fault. thenightetc: Yes. Starscreamapillar: Indeed. Thebes: Absolutely caffienatedconfetti: i like to imagine totoro keeping the umbrella  so long that moss and grass and flowersgrow on it Knock Out: That's adorable. Jalaperilo: there another anime, where a young sibling does actually die and the older one goes to get its sould Jalaperilo: i think theyre cats?

Knock Out: Hello, Cardinal! Starscreamapillar: Hardly, or I'd spend my days doing nothing but crushing people. Jalaperilo: hi and bye Cardi caffienatedconfetti: i'm not getting into this caffienatedconfetti: i could spend all night insulting you Cardinal: *waves* Thebes: I want ten caffienatedconfetti: hell i'm stayin for tyhe kitten Starscreamapillar: This one has sharp teeth. caffienatedconfetti: OOHOOOHOHO thenightetc: omg thenightetc: OMG. caffienatedconfetti: THAT IS caffienatedconfetti: A LOT OF TOTOROS caffienatedconfetti: OH MY LORD caffienatedconfetti: OOHOHOHOOH caffienatedconfetti: OOOHOOHOG Knock Out: Did they carry her off to something sinister? thenightetc: Do they just keep getting longer and longer with more and more legs as they get older, or...?

Knock Out: Thank *you* for your commentary! thenightetc: Aww, shucks. thenightetc: Goodnight! Knock Out: Goodnight, all! Thebes: good night!

Jan 2 Lost Light Stream - Transformers Prime 37-40

Prowl is slowly working to overcome his fear reaction to the appearance of Insecticons, by focusing on Knock Out instead when they show up. Chromedome didn’t come, which made things easier.

He theorized on why the Nemesis’s reaction to dark energon was different than other bots’, winced repeatedly at Knock Out’s pain, played along when half the room attempted to convince Wheeljack that Prowl is a ghost, and agreed to get pictures for Soundwave of Earth’s progress rebuilding New York City.

Soundwave suggested that Prowl might be able to win a phase shifter in their proposed testing-Soundwave’s-security game.

Welcome to the 'lostlightstream' room. Shockwave II changed their nickname to Shockbox. Shockbox changed their nickname to Shockbox. Rodimus: *music so emo* Shockbox: (( oh boy you guys.)) Shockbox: (( today's the day.)) Airachnid: [sneaks in] ItsyBitsySpyers: ((OH BOY OH BOY MY BOY)) Shockbox: (( the day we get to see **the best character** make his first appearance.)) Rodimus: *points at the spide* Rodimus: You been mising! ItsyBitsySpyers: *Soundwave trudges in, nods to the others already there, and settles into his usual couch in the back. It's going to be an... interesting night.* Rodimus: We been seeing you be a better Starscream Airachnid: I was otherwise engaged. Whirl: *trots in and immediately stakes his claim of the Whirl Couch* Airachnid: aka mun was playing Moon)) FakeProwl: *appears. today, he's doing a far more thorough check of the room than usual before looking for a seat* ItsyBitsySpyers: *Zori sees Airachnid and shoots RIGHT for Whirl* Rodimus: *rubs chin then smirks* Hey Soundwave I heard this rumour recently... Does you Skywarp push others down stairs? ItsyBitsySpyers: *Soundwave pings Prowl hello - no mnemosurgeons that he can see now - and looks to Rodimus* Whirl: *perks up!* Hey, Professor! ItsyBitsySpyers: [[Our Skywarp is missing. Again.]] FakeProwl: ((check the rafters)) Rodimus: Huh--- welll when he is unmissing ItsyBitsySpyers: ((lmao)) ItsyBitsySpyers: [[Sometimes.]] ItsyBitsySpyers: ((hope you had fun with moon airachnid mun!!)) Shockbox: *He enters and makes his way towards the couch closest to the front.* Windchill: *APPEARS.* Whirl: ((YE 8) )) ItsyBitsySpyers: *Buzzsaw settles near his new Intellectual Friend.* FakeProwl: *well. it looks clear. for now.* Whirl: *he will graciously make room for Zori and swivel his head around for the usual crowd* Whirl: *let's jam everyone on the couch tonight. COUCH PARTY* Airachnid: it was! I loved it)) ItsyBitsySpyers: *Also, you know that whole time marker and description thing? For the Insecticons? Prowl's getting them again.* FakeProwl: *sits with Soundwave between himself and the door* Rodimus: You ever hear stories of -who- he pushed down some stairs? Windchill: *Make room for his butt, Whirl. It's coming.* FakeProwl: *MORE tonight? oh, fantastic. he'll probably walk out into the hall by himself and run into chromedome.* Shockbox: *Nods at buzzsaw.* ItsyBitsySpyers: *Just turn your optics off. He can notify you.* Windchill: (( I might be slow to respond to things, my net is being RATHER UNFORGIVING tonight. )) FakeProwl: *that's what he plans on doing* ItsyBitsySpyers: *Knows Prowl is an avatar but will keep the avatar 'safe' anyway. Rumble and Frenzy join Whirl, Windchill, and Zori* ItsyBitsySpyers: [[It'd be easier to ask who he -didn't- mess with, Rodimus.]] Whirl: Hey, Rodders, you taking requests? ItsyBitsySpyers: [[And not every trick was so lightsparked.]] Whirl: *eexcellent. There's probably going to be some piling up since there's so many people on the couch bbut Whirl is prepared to be a seat if need be.* Whirl: ...*for rumbble and/or Frenzy. And Zori. Sorry Windchill, he'll die if you sit on him* Rodimus: Oh? *snickers* Sounds like you got stories! I been slumming it for new ones myself! FakeProwl: @Soundwave «I'll leave my avatar idle while those scenes are on. If he comes in while I'm unalert, warn me.» Windchill: *Many people can be piled on Windchill as well.* Windchill: *Are you calling his butt big, bro?* Whirl: *No. I'm calling it gargantuan and also deadly* Rodimus: *looks over to whirl* Ueah I can play one for you, whatcha want? Windchill: *He will accept this as a compliment.* ItsyBitsySpyers: @Prowl: (txt): Understood. If departure not wanted, comfort given during Unicron session returned. ItsyBitsySpyers: *He doesn't know whether Prowl values appearance over distance* Bruin: *has arrived, and remembered his giant cushion so over to the far wall they all go* Whirl: This Magic Moment--the Drifter's version. Whirl: But Lou Reed's ain't half bad, either. Rodimus: ...Really? Rodimus: ok ItsyBitsySpyers: [[There was the time he found Tracks comatose after a battle and replaced his wheels with much, much smaller ones.]] Whirl: Yeah, it's different, but all right. ItsyBitsySpyers: [[He was scolded for allowing Tracks to live, but the footage of Tracks' return trip to base -was- entertaining.]] Whirl: He's got a really unusual voice. Haven't listened to a lot of Lou, though. Rodimus: Its so sappy silentsoundy: --heh-- Whirl: ...OH. You mean the song--well, yeah. *deadpan look* A lot of good songs ARE love songs. Just works out that way. ItsyBitsySpyers: *Laserbeak zooms over to Bruin. Not to his helm though, no. She remembers better.* ItsyBitsySpyers: *Nods a greeting to his alternate.* FakeProwl: @Soundwave «No comfort. If I stay, I don't want to give him any indication that we're close.» Whirl: *he will not sing over it, though; the room is spared* Rodimus: *crinkles nose* Erth does mostly write those silentsoundy: --Alternate-- ItsyBitsySpyers: @Prowl: (txt): Understood. Shockbox: *3/4 waves present.* Bruin: *good Spotter is fine with the company so long as no helm perchihng is attempted* Whirl: *shrugs* I mean, yeah, it's sappy, but d'you hear that harmony? Those STRINGS? Whirl: *Whirl doesn't mind sap, either, but he is not gonna ADVERTISE that* ItsyBitsySpyers: *Pleased Whirl can appreciate these things* Whirl: *everyone should appreciate the Drifters* Windchill: *He's crossing his legs. Anyone with a mind to sit on him, which is no-one, is losing their opening.* Whirl: *will lean back and prop his feet up on that lap, as per usual* Once again, I offer all denizens of my couch the use of my lovely footstool. ItsyBitsySpyers: *Sounds like a Velocitronian song.* Rodimus: I like music that more in time with me I hate slow ones! Windchill: Really? Windchill: I thought you were rather slow. ItsyBitsySpyers: //Heheheh.// Whirl: I like multi-layered songs, myself. Once that have a whle lot of moving components, when they all come together, it's pretty cool. Whirl: ...*SNICKERS; OHH WINDCHILL, U DONE DID IT* Rodimus: *sideeyes WC* What? Windchill: *Banned from the Lost Light forever.* Windchill: I said, I thought you were slow. Whirl: You two should race. Rodimus: Obviously you must be then~ silentsoundy: --oh, this tune he rather enjoys-- Windchill: It wouldn't be much of a race. Rodimus: What is even your alt mode Chill? ItsyBitsySpyers: *Ravage decides to go sit with the alternate. It's been some time and, well. His own carrier unit is occupied.* Windchill: I'm a seeker, can't you tell? FakeProwl: *for the record, Prowl is currently about 85% convinced that Whirl and Windchill have an ongoing Dom/sub relationship of some kind* FakeProwl: *it's the whole living furniture thing they've got going on* Rodimus: That... that isnt an alt mode thats a job ItsyBitsySpyers: *Prowl's not the only one.* Windchill: It's a frame type, means my alternate mode is a jet. Rodimus: Even I can say "Ima seeker" big deal Windchill: Not where I'm from, you can't. Rules might be different here. Rodimus: I race wheels not wings Windchill: *You people keep your thoughts to yourself, WEIRDOS.* Windchill: Why, because you know you'll lose? FakeProwl: *says whirl's footrest* Rodimus: Heh so you are a jet ItsyBitsySpyers: *Soundwave's already shaking his helm. This was one of his former Lord's stupidest moments.* Airachnid: Oh I missed my alternate failing miserably. ItsyBitsySpyers: [[Be thankful.]] Whirl: *OMFG PROWL LMAO* Rodimus: *that explains some things* Airachnid: I like to laugh at her. Whirl: He's a Blackbird, presently. Windchill: I already said that I was. Rodimus: Megs dont frag your ship Shockbox: *Tilts his head at the screen.* Whirl: Really goddamned fast. ItsyBitsySpyers: [[In that case, he will send you the relevant clips before you leave.]] ItsyBitsySpyers: [[A question, Shockwave?]] Airachnid: Very well. Windchill: *He'S NOT WEIRD HE'S NORMAl. YOU PERVS.* Whirl: *he'll also swivel his helm around to bob it at Airachnid; her absence was noted* Airachnid: ..hello Whirl. Whirl: *(BE QUIET FOOTSTOOL* Windchill: *NO* Windchill: *NOBODY IS THE BOSS OF HIM.* Whirl: Hey, Legs. Highgloss: Oh! Look what I walked in on! FakeProwl: *don't worry, prowl is accepting of your kinky lifestyle* ItsyBitsySpyers: [[Greetings, Knock Out.]] Highgloss: Lovely. Always a pleasure to remember. Shockbox: Negative. I am merely interesed in this 'dark energon'. FakeProwl: *hECK. it's the hot doctor.* Shockbox: ((*interested )) Airachnid: [cringes] Highgloss: And to you, Soundwave. Windchill: *You walked in on Windchill not being embarassed when he ought, congratulations.* Rodimus: *hops up on the back of his couch and perches* agooddistraction: what's happenin ItsyBitsySpyers: [[The literal fuel of Unicron, Shockwave. A corrupting, enslaving force never to be touched.]] Windchill: Anyway, my point still stands. Whirl: Is. Windchill: Rodimus...is slow. Whirl: Wait, Whirl: Is he... did I miss something. Is he--*antenna pins back* Whirl: *IS HE FUCCIN THAT SHIP U GUYS* ItsyBitsySpyers: *Of all the nights for Knock Out to visit, it's the one with - well. They'll see.* Rodimus: I am not race me on wheels FakeProwl: *side glance at Soundwave. did you hear the thing shockwave just said. obviously you did but Did You Hear That* Windchill: Why should I stoop to your level?

Missed some.

ItsyBitsySpyers: [[He foolishly believed the power he gained was worth losing ownership of his spark and his reason.]] Airachnid: Megatron. Rodimus: Come in a hang out we are watching a case bad choices! Windchill: *Please calm yourself.* Airachnid: Why. Whirl: ...This ship is awesome. Windchill: *Snorts.* agoodidstraction: zapped Bruin: Ouch Rodimus: OH YEAH THAT REMINDS ME! agoodidstraction: yapped his zap Windchill: You say that, but you haven't seen 'im in root mode. Whirl: *snickers* I didn't know you guys' ship was alive. ItsyBitsySpyers: [[If only your mouth could be.]] FakeProwl: *idle mode* ItsyBitsySpyers: [[Our ship was not alive. It was Trypticon. Deceased. In an alternate form.]] ItsyBitsySpyers: [[...What was your ship, Knock Out?]] FakeProwl: *annnd back* Shockbox: As impressive as this iteration of Lord Megatron is, it does seem he is less...hinged. Highgloss: It was. Shockbox: *muttering.* Highgloss: Regrettably. agoodidstraction: zap the yaps agoodidstraction: oh frag red zapped Whirl: Ohh. Highgloss: Hmm. I always wondered how it got me. Highgloss: One of life's little mysteries solved. Whirl: Hmm. Interesting. When you use dark energon to resurrect a ormal-sized Cybertronian, they're just. ravenous. Dumb. Windchill: *Snorts.* Whirl: But the ship wasn't. I wonder why that is. ItsyBitsySpyers: [[He believes it was possessed.]] Whirl: By Unicron himself? Rodimus: Or blow the ship up? Whirl: Seems to have its own agenda, though. Wouldn;t Unicron have immediately just attacked Megatron? *taps the underside of his helm thoughtfully* Whirl: AND THERE, that--Unicron KNEW about humans. Seemed to be able to perceive them. FakeProwl: What would Unicron want with the Iaconian relics? Airachnid: Unicron was most likely still in some form of stasis. FakeProwl: Perhaps those infected with dark energon are reduced to their base instincts. agoodidstraction: doc knock Highgloss: Ugh. Ughhhh. Windchill: *Crosses his fingers.* ItsyBitsySpyers: *Hmm. These are good points.* agoodidstraction: i'm sorry red Highgloss: UGH. FakeProwl: A Cybertronian's base instincts would be to feed. FakeProwl: A ship's base instincts would be... whatever task it was last programmed for. agoodidstraction: and frag ItsyBitsySpyers: *Oh, listen to that reasoning. It's good reasoning.* agoodidstraction: anyone here ever fragged a ship before Airachnid: No. Rodimus: *raise hand* FakeProwl: *... he's not raising his hand. it would just encourage wheeljack.* Windchill: *Shakes his head.* FakeProwl: But you said your ship was a Cybertronian? Was his brain module removed or reprogrammed? ItsyBitsySpyers: [[Reprogrammed.]] agoodidstraction: fragging a ship would probably just kill you though wouldn't it FakeProwl: *nods* Perhaps that would do it. agoodidstraction: why are humans always toast? ItsyBitsySpyers: //Cuz they burn easy.// Whirl: Well, yeah, but your points, Prowl, would make sense if it was reanimated, like I suggested. Highgloss: I imagine ours would be bad in berth. ItsyBitsySpyers: //Pffft.// Rodimus: Your ship seems liek a dom! Whirl: If it was POSSESSED, then it wouldn't have a ship's instincts; it wouldn't have any instincts except for those of the possessor. Highgloss: Clumsy, clammy hands, then he'd go around telling all his friends you loved it. ItsyBitsySpyers: \\SO WHEELJACK.\\ FakeProwl: If it was possessed, then it would be doing its possessor's will. Windchill: *the what* agoodidstraction: but is fragging while possessed any good agoodidstraction: yeah? FakeProwl: Unicron, so far as we know, has no need for the Iaconian relics; and he WOULD know to keep an optic out for humans. FakeProwl: Reanimation appears more likely. Highgloss: Apologies, Wheeljack, for how hard I laughed at that. ItsyBitsySpyers: *No, no, Frenzy was insulting you WJ.* ItsyBitsySpyers: [[Reanimation then. It is still vile.]] agoodidstraction: bj agoodidstraction: no keep laughing Airachnid: Indeed. Rodimus: I dont think i'd analog frag a ship... I PnP'd him agoodidstraction: hey airachnid ya old *** Whirl: *nods slowly; Whirl finds it more interesting than anything else* agoodidstraction: ever spider *** a possessed ship before Whirl: *and he likes the ship's attitude, what can he say* Airachnid: ..... what is it Wheeljack? Whirl: ((THE BUTT)) Whirl: *LAUGHS* Airachnid: I have not. Jitterbun: ((Butt butt) Jitterbun: (And There goes Trypticon)) Whirl: *he is also no gonna join in on this fragging  aship convo* agoodidstraction: would you? Airachnid: No. agoodidstraction: lame Airachnid: I don't exist to amuse you. Whirl: *snickers* agoodidstraction: okay *** ItsyBitsySpyers: [[He must know. Had you already woken?]] Jitterbun: What exactly was it that froze 'em all? Jitterbun: -ah! agoodidstraction: hahhfe hasdbla agoodidstraction: doc Whirl: *LAUGHS AGAIN* agoodidstraction: what just happened Rodimus: Hey KO's got some handy hand holds for humans *smirks* Whirl: Everybody getting their afts handed to em tonight! Windchill: Beautiful. Rodimus: *laughs Ratchet plz* Airachnid: [that amused her a lot] Shockbox: *And the aesop for this episode? Do not feed nonsentient machines with dark energon and make sure your security systems know to check for organics.* Shockbox: *Shockbox feels educated.* Highgloss: Those handy hand holds are *not* for humans. Those were not consensual handy-holds. Jitterbun: Geeze, always with the violence and arms race's with ya'll ItsyBitsySpyers: *Shockbox is a quick learner.* Windchill: *Also, maybe, killing someone and using their corpse as your space boat is a bad idea as a matter of principle.* Shockbox: *Naturally.* Rodimus: *looks Knockout over and then grins* Fair enough FakeProwl: *... that begs the question of who the hand holds are for. sideways glance at the hot doctor.* ItsyBitsySpyers: *...Now, look. Nobody thought he was going to be doing that.* Whirl: Yep. That's what we're best at, Jitter. *zoops his neck up over the couch to try and locate Jitter* Rodimus: *engine purrs at he other speedster* agoodidstraction: oh boy FakeProwl: *he is, unfortunately, even more attractive in person.* Windchill: RUDE. Windchill: *It's true though, he's never met a personable Insecticon.* Shockbox: *Lost Light Stream: otherwise known as Everybody Wants to Frag Knockout* Windchill: *WRONG.* Jitterbun: *Unphased he nods jovially towards the outstreched neck.* .... agoodidstraction: face man Shockbox: *Correction: The Majority Would Frag Knockout* Jitterbun: Sorry t' speak for all ya, but the Doc's got some high standards. Airachnid: [thank you] Rodimus: ...Even our has subways ItsyBitsySpyers: *"Face man": exactly what Soundwave isn't.* FakeProwl: ((you can't read everyone's minds, jitter)) Airachnid: [then again, she doesn't want to frag anyone] Jitterbun: ((Whopse didn't see the * there) Highgloss: Ugh. I can smell that awful city through the screen. Windchill: *Nods.* agoodidstraction: zap ItsyBitsySpyers: [[What -did- it smell of?]] Windchill: Big feet problems. Jitterbun: ((Purple Eradicons~) Whirl: *also looks over, curious; he's never sniffed a human city* Rodimus: I never been to New York it was trashed before I got the chance! *huffs* Airachnid: [it's not that great] Windchill: That's almost fortunate. Highgloss: Hot dog water, among other things. ItsyBitsySpyers: =Ugh.= Whirl: *LAUGHS* Listen to her! FakeProwl: ((vogel is the best human in the show)) Whirl: Right off the bat, just lying her face blue! What a little trooper. Whirl: ((Fowler tho..................... but yeah Vogel is great 8) )) ItsyBitsySpyers: @Rodimus: [[Your Decepticons managed to destroy the city?]] Windchill: Everything is from outer space. Rodimus: *laughing* Windchill: Even I'm from outer space. Whirl: Not me. Whirl: I'm from Polyhex. FakeProwl: *is attempting to power it through the insecticon screens by focusing on knock out. he's gotta desensitize himself to insecticons somehow.* Jitterbun: What's all this tech doin' on the planet anyway? Whirl: That's cool, the crawling on the ceiling thing. FakeProwl: *it's helping a little.* Airachnid: Who knows. Shockbox: *Everything is technically from space, because everything is technicaly /in/ space.* Windchill: Yeah, it's...something. Jitterbun: *Obviously not watching the pervious epsides leaves him out of hte loop.* Whirl: ((omg careful prowl. You're gonna Pavlov yourself and every time you hear a WALALLA you gonna get honry)) Airachnid: Why Cybertron and this mudball are connected so much who knows. ItsyBitsySpyers: ((OMG)) Highgloss: Dear Unicron, I look good. Windchill: Thanks, Shockwave. FakeProwl: ((better a boner than a panic attack)) Windchill: ** agoodidstraction: yeah you do Whirl: They explained it a lot of episodes ago, Jitter. Long story. Windchill: *Forgot those ItsyBitsySpyers: }}A fine choice of weaponry, Doctor.{{ Whirl: Yeah, gotta give credit where it's due. *swivels his helm around and flips KO a lazy salute* Highgloss: Thank you, thank you! silentsoundy: --motions a farewell towards his Alternate before taking his leave-- Jitterbun: //DELTA// *He'll settle down behind good company now. Those are some vicious mechaoids* ItsyBitsySpyers: *Bobs his helm to his alternate. Do come again.* Windchill: *Rubs his eyebrows* Rodimus: *hmm? oh!* @SW ::Let's just said our kinda was very not welcome there! I'll see if I can get pic lata:: Shockbox: *we're back to half of our maximum wave-age* ItsyBitsySpyers: *Acknowledging ping. Thank you, Rodimus.* Whirl: *if you can find room here on the couch Whirl won't kick you off, Jitter. Granted, he's using Windchill as furniture at two minicons are probably using HIM as furniture. And there's a giant scorpion* Windchill: *There's totally room.* agoodidstraction: oh Rodimus: Doc you are pretty sleek--- but seems you may need *winces* agoodidstraction: ouch Airachnid: [LAUGHS] Jitterbun: *WINCES* Windchill: *Curls his upper lip* FakeProwl: *wince. partially at the paint. mostly at the sound it made.* ItsyBitsySpyers: //Oof.// Jitterbun: ..y'know, I'm thinkin' iI'm not real fond of the documentary type films. Rodimus: ---Some hand-tohand work. ItsyBitsySpyers: *Glances at Prowl. Inquisitive ping.* ItsyBitsySpyers: \\HOW COME?\\ FakeProwl: *?* FakeProwl: *counter-inquisitiveness* ItsyBitsySpyers: @Prowl: (txt): Prowl winced. Unexpected. Knock Out: Decepticon. Whirl: (9YES)) Whirl: You've got some pretty good moves with that polearm, though. FakeProwl: @Soundwave «It looked painful.» Whirl: *Whirl is not perhaps as attracted toKO as Prowl & Others but he has his merits* Jitterbun: *There is some releif in watching a fellow twowheeler tearin' up the dirt* Windchill: You gotta admit, Trouble would be a pretty good name. Rodimus: Knock Out whats your earth alt? Or it a costum? ItsyBitsySpyers: *Nod. This security tape comes with some serious sympathy cringe feelings.* FakeProwl: ((i like how it's Prowl & Others. like everyone else's attraction is a footnote compared to this thirst.)) Whirl: Yeah! I named my Flobster Trouble. Whirl: ((It is. DO YOU REMEMBER LAST NIGHT)) FakeProwl: ((I REMEMBER LAST NIGHT.)) FakeProwl: ((dem seatbelts)) Rodimus: ((roddi's was hte metal on metal noise Windchill: *He's not just saying that because naming things, Insecticons specifically, is something he'll be doing in the near future. Shockbox: (( sounds like prowl needs to take a sip. )) Whirl: ((Highgloss, last night during a stream of mine I put a still of KO's neck on the screen and played "Let's Get it On" in the background,)) Whirl: ((for reference)) FakeProwl: ((and made hearts around it with the cursor)) Whirl: *GRUBCHILD. SOON* ItsyBitsySpyers: *Brief moment of admiration for Arcee.* Airachnid: [gives a quiet hiss at the screen] Highgloss: Beautiful. Well done. Whirl: *CAN'T WAIT TO TEACH NEICE GRUBCHILD BAD HABITS* Airachnid: [why did it have to be Arcee] Whirl: ((yes i did that too. and also did that with Soundwave and his pivot)) Windchill: *WHY DO YOU KEEP STEALING ALL THE GOOD NAMES THOUGH, WHIRL.* Whirl: *BECAUSE I'M EXCELLENT AT NAMING THINGS* Jitterbun: ...do mecha in this universe make a habbit of ejectin' anythign in their cockpits durring transformation, or is it just him? Whirl: Yeah, you guys' Arcee is a badass, too. Windchill: *CURSE YOOOOOOU.* agoodidstraction: kjsdf FakeProwl: @Soundwave «I want one of those.» Jitterbun: *And that's a fairily anDY TOOL dangit poor mecha* FakeProwl: *also: another cringe for knock out.* Windchill: Ow. Windchill: ((HELP.)) Jitterbun: He's lucky thats all that happened. ItsyBitsySpyers: @Prowl: (txt): Perhaps if Prowl wins security game. Whirl: ((VOGEL'S FACE WHEN HE SAYS THAT)) Highgloss: And that one eventually landed me in the operating room. Windchill: (( I think we were all Vogel in that moment tho )) Highgloss: Thank you for that one, Autobots. FakeProwl: *oh well now he's Incentivized* Whirl: You're lucky you were going up against THOSE softies, Doc. Whirl: I don't LET my enemies retreat. Highgloss: And how's that worked out for you so far? Whirl: *this statement would probably seem more badass if Wghirl wasn't buried under a bunch of ex-Decepticons* Rodimus: Alot less enemies Whirl: I'm still here, they're not. So, pretty good, I'd say. Airachnid: [rolls optics] I hate suckups. Whirl: Ugh, I know, right? Windchill: Oh my god, he's back. Whirl: ...also, question. *swivels is helm around* How come he never considered YOU for the job, Chatterbox? FakeProwl: *well, he's got guts.* Highgloss: Oh, you absolute aft...*why?* Windchill: *All good things must come to an end.* Airachnid: What a coward. FakeProwl: *... never mind. no he doesn't.* ItsyBitsySpyers: *Soundwave's plating ripples in a shiver. The antarctic.* Airachnid: I've operated on myself plenty of times. ItsyBitsySpyers: [[For which job?]] Shockbox: *Shakes his head. Of course starscream wouldn't be able to do it.* Whirl: Second in Command. agoodidstraction: who is she Whirl: You obviously were loyal. You seemed pretty competent, too. Ship-related mishaps aside. *that was spoken with faint amusement* agoodidstraction: ydd agoodidstraction: yeehaww!!! agoodidstraction: yeah! Windchill: *Spits.* agoodidstraction: i'm cpabal agoodidstraction: ??? Whirl: Let's see your moves, then, Wheeljack. Rodimus: Megs apparently needs his secound to not be as nuts as him Shockbox: (( oh boy one of the best parts. )) Windchill: *Steeples his claws before his pursed lips.* Windchill: *What is he seeing?* agoodidstraction: i'll show youmy moves Whirl: For the record, I still find the fact that you're a Wrecker the most hilarious thing about your dimension. You know what OUR Wheeljack is like? A nerd. A total nerd. Rodimus: But only slightly FakeProwl: ((his fricking scooter)) agoodidstraction: i used to be a nerd Whirl: ...well, I meant in regards to the documentary, but if you wanna fight, then hell yeah, I'll fight ya. Airachnid: Do you not realize that you went AWOL? ItsyBitsySpyers: [[Primarily because he didn't want it.]] Windchill: *It's almost hard to believe these two are the same frametype.* Windchill: *Much less the same as HIMSELF.* Whirl: *he definitely noticed THAT* Whirl: *tilts his head* ... fair. And, y'know. It's pretty obvious that you only listened to the SIC when you felt like it. Whirl: *it;'s one of your better qualities* ItsyBitsySpyers: [[It was also not a position for a mech like him. His skills were best utilized elsewhere, and... he was not always worthy of being watched as closely as the SICs.]] Whirl: ((...what he noticed what Soundwave listening when he felt like it. Thanks LS)) Windchill: (( Dreadwing's flipping OWL FEET. )) Whirl: *nods again* Gotcha. Rodimus: *pew pew* Whirl: *man it's a shame that Dreadwing's such a disgusting syncophant because otherwise. Wgirl could Properly Appreciate someone firing a weapon like that* Whirl: *alas, his attitude is so UNattractive* Windchill: Why. Whirl: This must be fight night or something. Rodimus: Ha! Whirl: Not that I'm complaining, mind you. ItsyBitsySpyers: [[Something like that.]] Windchill: Did he forget he could fly? Windchill: Or is he just slow? Windchill: *Everyone is slow, what is he talking about.* Rodimus: Hawt Whirl: ha. Whirl: ((ALL CAPS REQUIRED)) Whirl: *HA Whirl: Nice, Airachnid: Even Prime hates Starscream's groveling. agoodidstraction: bixx agoodidstraction: soundwave ItsyBitsySpyers: [[What.]] agoodidstraction: who is she ItsyBitsySpyers: [[Who is who?]] FakeProwl: *did Optimus forget that a few weeks ago they were trying to take Starscream in as an ally?* agoodidstraction: reALLy ItsyBitsySpyers: *Evidently. He never understood why they didn't try again.* FakeProwl: *and that the only reason they didn't was because his own subordinate ruined their chances?* Whirl: Ah, what a lovely sound. Airachnid: I think it was a much longer time period. FakeProwl: *it's inconsistent and it's foolish.* Windchill: You would think so. Whirl: Their human guy isn't too shabby, either. Airachnid: Also, Starscream would have just stabbed them in the back eventually. ItsyBitsySpyers: *It is a Prime.* Rodimus: I wish our whip was that cold again.... Rodimus: *EXCUSE YOU* agoodidstraction: whoa Rodimus: ((ship* omg ItsyBitsySpyers: //So they drain him of info 'n terminate 'im before he does the stabby stabby.// agoodidstraction: soundwave you got inhibitors ItsyBitsySpyers: //Ain't that how it's done?// ItsyBitsySpyers: [[Not with him. Why?]] agoodidstraction: i'm gonna die Whirl: Huh. Whirl: *eyes this armor skepitcally* Whirl: Looks awful stiff. ItsyBitsySpyers: [[He will be sure to play something appropriate at your funeral.]] Windchill: Great, now he looks like a doughboy. Windchill: I'd say it's an improvement. agoodidstraction: if i die you can't kill me ItsyBitsySpyers: [[The Doctor is still here, he thinks. Ask him.]] Airachnid: I imagine it isn't that maneuverable. Whirl: Yeah, ad maneuverability, as you can no doubt tell, is my forte. Airachnid: We get it. You killed Cliffjumper. Airachnid: I don't even brag about my kills that much in front of Acee. Windchill: His lone achievement. *Hand over boob.* agoodidstraction: he's grabbin him like a doll FakeProwl: @Soundwave «The Decepticons invented Apex Armor?» Whirl: I can't even remember all the kills I've made. I didn't get all of their names, either. Whirl: *shakes his head* Must be a sad existence. Being Starscream. Airachnid: I imagine it is. Rodimus: IMa speed and grace guy myself too Windchill: Sure you are. agoodidstraction: hdgkaf agoodidstraction: good one ItsyBitsySpyers: @Prowl: (txt): Unclear. Early records damaged. Two stories: Solus Prime invented, Decepticons invented. Airachnid: And there are mecha that think his voice is attractive. Airachnid: I pity them. Whirl: Agreed, Legs. Whirl: I will admit--the ship had a nice voice though. agoodidstraction: oh agoodidstraction: wow agoodidstraction: i never fragged up that hard FakeProwl: @Soundwave «Does the armor have any weak point?» agoodidstraction: and my friends are all dead ItsyBitsySpyers: @Prowl: (txt): User. FakeProwl: *snorts* ItsyBitsySpyers: *Soundwave trembles slightly. He's amused by Wheeljack's comment* Windchill: Good grief. Windchill: Swords, man. Windchill: Ridiculous. agoodidstraction: soundwave if you're cold i'll cuddle ya ItsyBitsySpyers: //Man, what's wit' all the-// Rumble flails his arm around. //Can't he jus' sheathe the fraggin' thing?// Whirl: *sighs; it's such a damn shame that his personality is so terrible, because wow. Those moves. THE GUN. THE SWORD* ItsyBitsySpyers: [[You will NOT.]] Whirl: *SUCH A DISAPPOINTMENT* Windchill: *THE SWORD IS DUMB.* Whirl: Yeah, honestly, like... swords are cool, but all the fancy twirling doesn't impress me. ItsyBitsySpyers: *Soundwave sits up and glows just a teensy bit brighter.* Windchill: It's some kind of contest, I think. Whirl: Hack someone clean in half. Then I'll be impressed. agoodidstraction: fineb itch Windchill: "My sword is bigger," you know. Whirl: ((AT LAST))

Missed some.

ItsyBitsySpyers: *PLEASED* Whirl: *snickers at the constant nicknaming* Whirl: Oh, hey, it's you, Chatterbox! ItsyBitsySpyers: *Nods his helm at Rodimus. Yes, it will. Mostly* ItsyBitsySpyers: {{Peh. Bird sleeping.}} ItsyBitsySpyers: *She drops down and docks on his back.* Whirl: 8AN AERIAL BATTLE? AT LAST* Windchill: *Only took over a season.* Rodimus: *grins @ SW* FakeProwl: *respectable maneuverability* Whirl: *it's passable* FakeProwl: ... "Surveillance drone"? agoodidstraction: heyyy Whirl: *AWW GO LASERBEAK GO* FakeProwl: Ignorance or disrespect? agoodidstraction: it's always time to be hotdogging ItsyBitsySpyers: [[Both.]] ItsyBitsySpyers: *Soundwave sees that grin.* Windchill: *He suspects his definition of "hotdogging" is vastly different than what is suggested here.* Whirl: To be honest, I'm not surprised that y'all can outmaneuver that ship. ugh, just LOOK at it. Whirl: It's dreadful. I'm surprised it can even keep UP. Airachnid: [chinhands at Ratchet] agoodidstraction: first time he screamed in the jackhammer FakeProwl: ... *covers mouth. ratchet's scream tho.* Whirl: *flips a mournful salute* Well fought, Bird. Whirl: ...*wow did he just commend a Con. He did. Well.* Whirl: *Stranger things have happened* ItsyBitsySpyers: *Soundwave tilts his helm, passes the message on, and... Laserbeak's voice comes out of his speakers.* Windchill: If that's all it takes to down that thing, colour me unimpressed. ItsyBitsySpyers: {{...Thanking.}} Windchill: Also, pink. Whirl: Aaand yeah. Not surprised it crashed. No offence Wheeljack, but your aircraft is garbage. agoodidstraction: i miss my swords agoodidstraction: frag you ItsyBitsySpyers: *Quietly reassures her. She did very well.* Whirl: Not likely, mech. *sly look* Windchill: *Puts up his middle finger.* Whirl: You've yet to impress me. Rodimus: *glances at Laserbeak and thinks a moment then back to the screen* agoodidstraction: oh i'll impress ya agoodidstraction: i'm sexy Whirl: I'll believe it when I see it. ItsyBitsySpyers: =We are not PETS.= Bruin: *angry hissing, leave her alone* ItsyBitsySpyers: *Annoyed growl from Ravage.* Airachnid: Ratchet's so brilliant. Windchill: It's not that grand an idea. FakeProwl: *eugh.* agoodidstraction: noodles agoodidstraction: loud noodles ItsyBitsySpyers: *Appreciates Bruin's hiss. Pings him so.* ItsyBitsySpyers: [[Feelers.]] agoodidstraction: NOODLES Shockbox: (( i find it a little personally ridiculous this virus thing actually worked. )) FakeProwl: *it's a perfectly pragmatic plan, but eugh.* ItsyBitsySpyers: ((it IS ridiculous but i have to go with it)) Airachnid: because humans have to be "winners")) Whirl: *SNICKERS* Airachnid: and be better than the bad ol Decepticons)) Whirl: *LET'S STUFF A CHICKEN IN SOUNDWABE* ItsyBitsySpyers: *Long stare at Wheeljack. This one isn't responsible for doing this to her, but - such resentment fades slowly.* Whirl: *OPEN WIDE CHATTERBOX* Whirl: Dang, those feelers are versatile, mech. agoodidstraction: *stares back* Shockbox: (( because somehow a script kiddie is just as good at computers as a cybertronian master spy. )) agoodidstraction: *sticks glossa out* ItsyBitsySpyers: *Ahh. Here we are.* Windchill: Oh good, time to fight. Whirl: *OHO A FIGHT. BETWEEN THESE TWO?* agoodidstraction: yeah!!! agoodidstraction: *** ItsyBitsySpyers: *Pleased bob.* Whirl: *sits ALL THE WAY UP* agoodidstraction: let's fight Airachnid: [perks up slightly] FakeProwl: *... ooh.* Highgloss: You two couldn't have picked a better setting for it.

He does not need to spar.]] Rodimus: *pouts* Whirl: ((i have yet to hear this owl)) ItsyBitsySpyers: @Prowl: (txt): Not -easy-. Shockbox: (( soundwave's biolights are so gorgeous in this scene. )) Whirl: ........................ Whirl: *(CAMERA PLEASE NOT WITH THE WIGGLIES* Whirl: *PLEASE* Rodimus: Lewd~ Whirl: Well. ...er-hem. Sorry, Wheeljack. You did not impress me at all.

Rodimus: Now thats it for the night! Whirl: These documentaries sure love their cliffhangers. ItsyBitsySpyers: [[Thank you. He enjoyed the majority of the last one.]] Highgloss: Thank you for the jaunt down memory lane! ItsyBitsySpyers: [[Do come again, Knock Out.]] Whirl: And, credit where it's due. Whirl: You kicked some skidplate, Chatterbox. *nods* Rodimus: Your both welcome! Yeah nice to see you back anytime~ *winks* ItsyBitsySpyers: @Wheeljack: [[2-0.]] ItsyBitsySpyers: *Bobs his helm.* agoodidstraction: rematch agoodidstraction: let's rematch Windchill: Sometimes... Airachnid: I do not think that will bode well for you. Whirl: I'll sell tickets! agoodidstraction: REMATCH Rodimus: Nowai! If he isnt going to give me a spar certinally not getting one! Airachnid: But, it'll be amusing. Windchill: One has to accept when they SUCKED the first time. ItsyBitsySpyers: [[And destroy his own investment? Please.]] Windchill: And move on. agoodidstraction: i don't wanna spar, i want a rematch Windchill: *Except, nobody's going to let anyone move on, ever.* FakeProwl: @Soundwave «You could probably open a space bridge straight under his feet and instantly win.» FakeProwl: @Soundwave «And—added bonus—he'd be out of the room.» Whirl: Well, if he won't, I'll fight ya, Wheeljack. Whirl: *will fight anyone, really* Shockbox: (( now you're thinking with portals. )) Whirl: *he'll fight himself if he can find another Whirl* Windchill: WHAT.

Windchill: But you'll go fight that moron? Whirl: I'll fight you, too. Whirl: Both of you. At the same time. Windchill: I'm offended. FakeProwl: @Soundwave «I prefer "practical."» *but there's a thin smirk* Whirl: Anyone else want some? *clicks his claws aggressively* Airachnid: [she needs to find a way to watch this and now] Whirl: You were asking for a sparring partner, Rodders, I'll fight YOU. Rodimus: I can spar you anytime... *bored flop* Windchill: I'm not teaming up with him. ItsyBitsySpyers: \\NAH. TOO EASY.\\ Rodimus: I want NEW ones!

Whirl: Pfft, you talk a big game, Frenzy. agoodidstraction: i know you are but what am i Windchill: A loser. Whirl: ((oh *** that reminds me they DID have a fighting thrad)) FakeProwl: @Soundwave «Maybe wait until they dogpile each other and bridge them all out at once.» Whirl: ((appropriately it was right after whirl said "yeah i'd boink Frenzy")) agoodidstraction: i'm not a loser Whirl: ((I will get to hat)) ItsyBitsySpyers: ((yes they do)) Windchill: Are you certain? ItsyBitsySpyers: *Be still his beating spark. Prowl, he can't headbump you here. Stop saying delightful things.* Windchill: I believe we all just witnessed you LOSING.

We know.* Whirl: Aww, really legs? *swivels his helm over* You look like you'd be a fun fight. Whirl: You've got some moves, yourself. FakeProwl: *politely lifts his feet out of the way of the Rodimus ooze* ItsyBitsySpyers: [[Join them, Rodimus.]] Windchill: There's no buts. ItsyBitsySpyers: [[It could be amusing.]] agoodidstraction: red agoodidstraction: is he still in here Airachnid: I would rather not. Shockbox: *Clasps his hands and observes the ruckus.* Rodimus: Meh--- just sounds like Swerve's rn and I can get that tommorrow agoodidstraction: knock out Whirl: *also SW we all know what'd happen if you interrupted whirl's fight with a bridge. Doing that means you Join the Fight* Whirl: Suit yourself. Airachnid: Maybe another time. Windchill: Pfft! agoodidstraction: ffrag Whirl: *optic flickers* Hey, just lemme know, mech! Whirl: I'd like that. Windchill: DISGUSTING. Whirl: ...are you talking to me, Windchill? Windchill: Naturally. Rodimus: *so bored and huffy now sitting on the floor* Whirl: *hey, you were given an offer and you turned it down* Windchill: *HE'S NOT TEAMING UP WITH AN AUTOBOT TO FIGHT YOU.* Rodimus: *he can fight whirl whenever! he wanted new ppl!* Whirl: *SUIT YOURSELF* Windchill: Do I not get first dibs? ItsyBitsySpyers: *Why not fight the Wheeljack?* Whirl: And what about you, Chatterbox? I'd take you AND your team on. *swivels his helm again* ItsyBitsySpyers: *Soundwave would looooove to see that.* Rodimus: *cause he already saw him loss!* Windchill: I will fight.

You don't have to move. agoodidstraction: *NO PUNCH HIM* Windchill: *GOOD ENOUGH.* Rodimus: Take it to the training halls first I dont have the pits set up here Windchill: Consider me Windchill: MORTALLY OFFENDED. ItsyBitsySpyers: *Soundwave glances to Prowl. What's this then...?* agoodidstraction: punch me ItsyBitsySpyers: *He'll trust his ally. A nod.* Whirl: I might never have fought in the pits, Chatterbox, but I survived the Dead End. I wouldn't count me out. ItsyBitsySpyers: //Wait, you got a Pit in the hall?// Windchill: *Groans loudly and flops back in his seat, DRAMATICALLY.* FakeProwl: *looks straight at Wheeljack. lifts up one hand. observe.* Rodimus: We got a small one at Swerve's FakeProwl: *sticks hand through Soundwave's arm. waves it around a little.* FakeProwl: You can't fight me. ItsyBitsySpyers: *OH well okay that was. Unexpected.* Whirl: Oh, yeah. We forgot to tell you, Wheeljack. Our ship is haunted. FakeProwl: *withdraws hand.* Rodimus: Porwl ghost Whirl: By the ghost of Prowl, may Heqet rest his spark. Windchill: Yeah, by a big baby who won't fight us. ItsyBitsySpyers: [[It would be a fight, Whirl, not a survival game.]] Shockbox: *but will wheeljack presume prowl is using a phase shifter?* FakeProwl: *opens mouth.* ... *shuts mouth. he's not going to argue.* Rodimus: He is really dead--- *shakes helm( So tragic ItsyBitsySpyers: //I wanna see this Swerve Pit. Ain't nobody told me ya got one.// Whirl: Same difference, in the Dead End, mech. agoodidstraction: what Windchill: What what, in the butt. agoodidstraction: ? agoodidstraction: ?? Whirl: If you don't WANT to, you can just say so. But your intimidation talk is having the opposite effect you think it does. Whirl: Sometimes, I think I can still hear his voice... Rodimus: Check the screen ItsyBitsySpyers: //Pfff! Ya call that a PIT?// FakeProwl: *flatly* It was a traumatic end. Windchill: Looks like any old bar, BORING. agoodidstraction: ??? Windchill: Though, granted. Whirl: It was a freak peanut butter accident. Windchill: It's not so boring once you start fighting in it. ItsyBitsySpyers: //Where's all the spires? The flamin' trash piles? The giant spikes?// Rodimus: That middle table collapses in a small pit for wrestling mostly ItsyBitsySpyers: *Soundwave invents an obituary for Prowl on the spot and places it on his screen.* Windchill: You couldn't even fit ME in that thing. FakeProwl: *oh, leans forward to read it.* agoodidstraction: but he's right there????? Rodimus: Guess we didnt get the Koan package mech. *shrugs with a grin* ItsyBitsySpyers: *It's mostly a serious tale of overheating due to peanut butter clogged vents and exploding. There are a few flattering details though.* FakeProwl: *... sits back. covers mouth.* Rodimus: @SW ::May story for his death was better* Whirl: *hand over spark* We're so fortunate to still have his ghost with us.

FakeProwl: Everyone knows I'm only good for rattling chains and waking people up at three in the morning. Whirl: He doesn't ACTUALLY--yes, that. agoodidstraction: i mean the prime was always talkin to ghost agoodidstraction: iwhatg Windchill: You're definitely no good for fighting. Whirl: But, you know, if you're already up at three in the morning, he's good for a conversation. ItsyBitsySpyers: @Prowl: (txt): Prowl's story, disregardable berth activity rumor mentioned? Whirl: Chains and moaning aside. agoodidstraction: i'mabut how are you schlurpin that spike if he's dead ItsyBitsySpyers: *You know what's great about visors? You can make any face you want behind them and nobody can see.* agoodidstraction: i know all about chains and moaning ItsyBitsySpyers: *...Which is especially vital after comments like Wheeljack's.* Windchill: *Palm, meet face.* Airachnid: [disgust] FakeProwl: ... Pffft. @Soundwave «No, the rumor of my death is completely novel.» Whirl: *tilts his head and stares at Wheeljack with the blankest expression ever* I don't follow.

Rodimus: *snickering* ItsyBitsySpyers: @Prowl: (txt): Soundwave will believe rumor when experienced. Whirl: *just blinks slowly; the fact that his expression is just his eye means Whirl can pull off the best poker face imaginable* FakeProwl: @Soundwave «... Except perhaps the three a.m. part. I prefer to have concluded any activities by then.» ItsyBitsySpyers: *Ravage is as disgusted as Airachnid. He can go over to her and keep her company during their nonsense.* agoodidstraction: so anyway oral is amazing Airachnid: Why are you like this? Whirl: Oral? Whirl: *blank. stare* Rodimus: PFT! agoodidstraction: yeah ORAL agoodidstraction: O R A L Whirl: Oral what? ItsyBitsySpyers: [[The world needs -someone- to be its fool, Airachnid.]] agoodidstraction: SEX ItsyBitsySpyers: @Prowl: (txt): Noted. FakeProwl: @Soundwave «Well. He's not attempting to fight me anymore. I'm not certain this is an improvement.» Airachnid: I thought that was Smokescreen. Whirl: ...*peers* That's not where sex happens, Wheeljack. Airachnid: Do we need any more? Whirl: I dunno who told you that, but they were yaking your chain. agoodidstraction: ??? Rodimus: *glances at the door thinking a moment of all the slag he still has left* Whirl: *POKER. FACE* ItsyBitsySpyers: [[Smokescreen is the unfortunate sap. Different role.]] Shockbox: *This scene has been...extremely amusing.* Airachnid: Hmm. Touche. Shockbox: *But it's snack table time, now.* agoodidstraction: okay tell that to bumblebee Whirl: I don't know any Bumblebees. Airachnid: Be thankful. agoodidstraction: you don't even know mine? Airachnid: They are annoying. Whirl: But, you know. Okay. I'll relebt. *drapes a claw over his chest* I'm being very narrow minded, here. Comes with the lack of peripheral vision. Whirl: Maybe other mecha have their sex organs in their mouths, in different dimensions. ItsyBitsySpyers: *WHIRL* Whirl: That's not where I keep mind. Obviously. Whirl: *WAIT *** OKAY HE FORGOT AGAIN BUT POKER FACE POKER FACE* agoodidstraction: airachnid i'll kick your *** face in *** Whirl: How rude. agoodidstraction: whirl what the frfag did you smoke Whirl: Hey now, no cutting in line. I get to fight her first. Whirl: Smoke? Windchill: Not until you fight me, bro. Airachnid: I would like to see you try. agoodidstraction: why would someone's array be in their mouth Whirl: Well, apparently yours are. Whirl: Since you frag with your mouth. agoodidstraction: i USED my mouth though Windchill: *Raises hand* agoodidstraction: what Bruin: *plating very ruffled up, he's thoroughly pissed about the eppisode still * Bruin: *the normal rediculousness is a nice distraction though* Whirl: I don't get it. Whirl: *continues to blankly stare* How? Rodimus: *face drops into hands* Windchill: Does that mean my giggity bits are in my armpits, because- ItsyBitsySpyers: @Shockbox: [[Leaving? This time he will not send Frenzy.]] Airachnid: [at this point she isn't surprised by this coversation] Windchill: *he'll just lower his hand, now.* agoodidstraction: whirl what the frag Windchill: *The damage has been done.* FakeProwl: *... okay, this is sad, prowl feels like he has to help out* agoodidstraction: okay whirl do you have uh agoodidstraction: what kind of stuff ya got? ItsyBitsySpyers: @Prowl: (txt): "Improvement" impossible near Wheeljack. "Status quo" best option. Whirl: Claspers, actually, but they;re in the usual place. *gestures to his groin* agoodidstraction: okay but what do you have down there agoodidstraction: like Rodimus: *checks to room to see if any mechs look bothered with the current chatter* Whirl: I just told you. agoodidstraction: ????? FakeProwl: Whirl, are you familiar with the concept of applying tactile stimulation to a partner's interstate array with parts OTHER than one's own interface array. Shockbox: @Soundwave: Not yet, but soon. May as well add to my stores while the others are distracted. agoodidstraction: no like agoodidstraction: you know how i don't have a spike but bee does FakeProwl: **interface FakeProwl: ((INTERSTATE ARRAY)) Whirl: I didn't know that, actually. Shockbox: *ngl he doesn't get like 60% of this sex talk because that's not how his universe works* agoodidstraction: okay well now ya know Airachnid: I wheezed when I read that)) Whirl: @Prowl: Yes. I one hundred percent am, But I am also one hundred pecent winding him up. agoodidstraction: are you a spike mech or a not spike mech Windchill: You learn something new, every day. *Said as flatly as possible, which is quite a lot.* Bruin: ((interstate? thats a really big spike)) Whirl: *now looks to Prowl* I mean, in theory. Rodimus: We are all no spike mechs ItsyBitsySpyers: @Shockbox: [[Understood. He will see this continue if he can.]] Whirl: Well, yeah, I've got claspers. Same thing. Rodimus: *stands up to start putting the fuel away* FakeProwl: @Whirl «... You fooled me too. Carry on.» Whirl: I'm sure I'm not the only one in the room who does, either. *snoirts; that bit is genuine* ItsyBitsySpyers: *Or not. Rodimus, what timing you have.* agoodidstraction: CLASPERS? Rodimus: *snickers spike is such a stupid name for the dongle* Whirl: @Prowl: Don't worry. We can pretend you were in on it. FakeProwl: *he did not think Whirl was capable of that patiently messing with someone.* Whirl: Yes! Shockbox: *He's able to finish taking what he needs before rodimus starts cleaning.* Whirl: Congratulations, you have basic listening comprehension! ItsyBitsySpyers: *Learn something new every day, Prowl.* agoodidstraction: okay agoodidstraction: ya ever let anyone put their mouth on your claspers? Rodimus: *you steal rodimus's fuel again?* FakeProwl: *well then. he'll sit back and let this play out.* Whirl: No. Shockbox: *stealing! haha, no, no. shockwave? never.* Whirl: That seems like a stupid thing to do, with all those TEETH. FakeProwl: *... and now prowl is wondering if he actually has claspers or if that's just messing with wheeljack too* Whirl: Why would anyone even do that. Rodimus: *he will stop you unless you agree to his terms*

Missed a very tiny bit. Maybe none at all. hard to tell.

agoodidstraction: it's not made up ItsyBitsySpyers: *Soundwave knows if Whirl does or not but a) he doesn't know Prowl is wondering and b) he's not sure he wants to admit he knows.* Whirl: *maybe not but his feet feel ALL OF IT* Whirl: *DON'T SAY IT LIKE THAT SOUNDWAVE GDI YOU MAKE IT SOUND WORSE THAN IT IS* Whirl: Yeah, yeah. Nice try. I'm ot falling for THAT one. Pfft. ItsyBitsySpyers: *PAYBACK ASTERISKS FOR THE MOUTH ORGAN BIT* agoodidstraction: whirl you're high FakeProwl: *prowl is used to people comparing their mods in bars. he'd just assume whirl went over to soundwave's club while it was open* agoodidstraction: knock out told me how to do it Windchill: Oh, well I'm sure he'd know all about it. Whirl: Anyoine could just CHOMP them right off! agoodidstraction: yeah that's why i asked him FakeProwl: *whoa hello there now prowl is thinking about knock out's mouth. okay. all right. okay.* Whirl: Why would you DO that? Shockbox: *after barely making off with a relatively small bit of fuel, he walks briskly over to soundwave, mostly because soundwave seems to be the safest option at the moment.* Whirl: *GDI WHAT HAVE I DONE* ItsyBitsySpyers: *Could be worse. He could be thinking about Soundwave's mouth.* Whirl: ((rodders will u please play Let's Get it On)) ItsyBitsySpyers: *Nods to Shockwave. There's room where Rodimus was.* Rodimus: *yep its a ... pretty open panel policy* agoodidstraction: because it *** feels good what the *** is wrong with you wht *** kind of sad universe do you *** come from that doesn't have *** *** oral mech Rodimus: ((pretend its ic lmao ItsyBitsySpyers: [[Not everyone has the luxury of possessing a face, you know.]] Shockbox: *he considers the seat, and then takes it.* Whirl: *stares at Wheeljack. Blank. Optic giving no emotion away* Whirl: *deep, deep breath* Whirl: *BURSTS OUT LAUGING* Shockbox: ........*nods in agreement with slendy's statement.* agoodidstraction: hdkljishf agoodidstraction: what!!!! Rodimus: *silly smirk to himself* agoodidstraction: what agoodidstraction: what mech Airachnid: [she's just going to snicker to herself] Whirl: I DON'T know how I managed to keep a straight face for so long. ItsyBitsySpyers: *Soundwave looks up and over at the speakers. HA.* Whirl: Of COURSE we have blowjobs here, mech. Whirl: I mean, I wasn't lying when I said I'd never done it but, I was messing with you. You're VERY gullible. Whirl: Thank you, Rodders. agoodidstraction: i hat eyour *** stupid *** face Whirl: *cheeky salute* Whirl: Everything else was true, though. agoodidstraction: *squints* Whirl: Honest truth. agoodidstraction: you don't really have claspers ItsyBitsySpyers: *Oh, why not.* ItsyBitsySpyers: //Yeah he does.// Whirl: Oh no, I do, and I'm also sure I'm not the only person here who does. Whirl: Not that all uncommon, in my dimension. agoodidstraction: prove it agoodidstraction: ?? Rodimus: Woah! You do WHirl?! I havnt seen that mod in ages Whirl: Mod? *now he looks genuinely nonplussed* Windchill: This really isn't the place, I think. ItsyBitsySpyers: @Shockbox: [[...He does not know what greater educational value these moments have, but they do amuse.]] agoodidstraction: prove it *** Rodimus: Earth organic is pretty invouge still here Whirl: See? Rumble knows. Proof enough. Whirl: No mods here. *shrugs* agoodidstraction: no i wanna see with my own two optics Whirl: Oh. Well. I was born with 'em. Rodimus: Sweet--- really?! Whirl: *nods* Rodimus: Arn't you Cold Construct? Shockbox: *he leans back on the couch.* Rodimus: *RODDIMUS* Whirl: And--sorry, Wheeljack, but like I said--*sly look* You've yet to impress me. FakeProwl: *is rather glad the clasper fad died out, personally. they don't work well with his array.* Shockbox: @Soundwave: Amusing is /one/ way to put it. Whirl: ...what the frag kinda question is THAT? ItsyBitsySpyers: @Shockbox: [[Your suggested term?]] Rodimus: Ours didnt have those arrays mostly til the war. agoodidstraction: show me your claspers Windchill: *Gently, ever SO gently, picks up Whirl's feet and relocates them to HIS side of the couch.* agoodidstraction: i'll show you my thing Whirl: ((i'm so sorry everyone. the dickcapades got out of control)) Whirl: *ever so gently puts them back* Windchill: What the heck. Rodimus: ((meanwhile casual racism rodimus geeze Whirl: Well, impress me, and maybe you'll get your chance. Windchill: *Can't believe this. How did this happen.* Windchill: *Moves them again.* Whirl: *moves them back* agoodidstraction: i'll impress you come on just agoodidstraction: i'll give you lots of drugs ItsyBitsySpyers: //First off, ain't nobody poppin' their stuff out while I'm sittin' on 'em. B, I ain't watchin' Wheeljack show off nothin'.// Shockbox: (( admittedly i have not been paying close attention to the conversation. )) ItsyBitsySpyers: *He hops off Whirl and trots over to squeeze himself between Soundwave and Shockwave.* Shockbox: ((i have been building a gundam. )) Whirl: Well, obviously, our dimension is different. FakeProwl: Most pre-war cold constructed mechs who were interested in getting arrays did so long before the war. Whirl: Pfft, don;t worry Rumble, I'm not gonna do that. Windchill: Excuse me, sir. Shockbox: *nods at rumble.* Whirl: Not unless YOU asked, of course. *salutes* Rodimus: Yeah no dongles out in the rec room Magnus made it a rule agoodidstraction: okay anyone ELSE got weird arrays? Windchill: Your feet are IN MY WAY. Whirl: What? *looks to Windchill* agoodidstraction: how do you even frag with claspers Windchill: *Raises hand. He's just being honest.* Windchill: I said. Rodimus: *raises hand* FakeProwl: *... again, decides not to raise his hand. does not want wheeljack's attention* ItsyBitsySpyers: \\YA CLASP 'EM. DUH.\\ Whirl: Tiime to go? *lifts his feet into the air* Windchill: Seems so. Whirl: *and while they're there, looks to Wheeljack* The usual way. Shockbox: *he takes a moment to think* agoodidstraction: HOW? Windchill: If we're not gonna fight, I'm gonna go. Airachnid: I can only say I do not have any. agoodidstraction: look i'm still learning how spikes and valves work agoodidstraction: i have no idea what i'm doin Whirl: Seeya, mech. Also--I haven't forgotten. next week, you better give me a doctor's note, yeah? Whirl: *sits up* Does ANYONE else in this room have a set of claspers? Whirl: ...wait. Whirl: ((swap the order there)) Rodimus: Ha! Windchill: You're not the boss of me. Rodimus: I think a few in the engine team has some still ItsyBitsySpyers: //They ain't in the room though.// Whirl: I mean it. I'll take executive action if I har you haven't seen a doc. Windchill: What's THAT supposed to mean? agoodidstraction: whirl Whirl: Wheeljack. Whirl: it means I'll kick your ***, Windchill. Windchill: *He stands up, putting him in a better position to deflect any "executive actions."* Windchill: PFFT. Rodimus: !!! WHirl! Do I need to send Volicity down here?! Whirl: *sets his feet down* agoodidstraction: whirl just show me the *** claspers Windchill: I've been trying to get you to do that for years. Windchill: I'm not even convinced that you CAN. Whirl: Look, to get them out, I need to be in a particular mood. And that's not just something I can DO. Whirl: Also, no. Like I said--I'm not attracted to you. Whirl: I'll take a picture or something, and send it, if you want. agoodidstraction: okay let me give ya a lap dance then agoodidstraction: you'll send me a pic??? Whirl: I'll pass, but yeah. In the event, that I get them out sometime soon, I'll send you  a picture. Whirl: But fair warning--last time I got em our was, like, four million years ago. ItsyBitsySpyers: *Soundwave just shakes his helm. Be proud of him, Prowl. He risked his life to rescue this.* Whirl: So you're gonna be in for quite a wait. ItsyBitsySpyers: *That's a huge sacrifice.* agoodidstraction: ???????? FakeProwl: *enormous* Whirl: ((truly)) FakeProwl: *also: why* agoodidstraction: why do you hate your claspers Shockbox: @Soundwave: I do not believe any single term would do. It is merely another kind of common exchange. agoodidstraction: get 'em sucked or whatever agoodidstraction: give 'em some air Rodimus: Geeze Wheeljack, I guess you aare new to this interfacing thing cause you got less class than Swerve at this. ItsyBitsySpyers: *Ask.* ItsyBitsySpyers: @Shockbox: [[A reasonable viewpoint.]] Whirl: *holds up his huge claws* Rodimus: Whirl told you no let it drop. agoodidstraction: look i'm good in berth okay Rodimus: And? Whirl: Thanks, Rodders, but I've got this. *nods* Whirl: *that was a genuine thank you* Whirl: I've got huge c;laws. They';re not good for that sort of thing. Rodimus: *thumbs at WHirl* You can take it then. agoodidstraction: *lighting another cyg* *** Windchill: *Time for a goodnight eye roll.* Windchill: Bye, guys. Whirl: Catcha later, 'Chill. Rodimus: See ya. ItsyBitsySpyers: //Seeya.// ItsyBitsySpyers: *Ah. An audio hint.* Whirl: Anyway, there you have it. 've told you just about everything I can about my junk. I hope you're happy. Rodimus: *passive agressive music choices* Windchill: *Leaves.* Shockbox: @Soundwave: In such a relatively relaxed atmostphere, such discussions are an eventuality. agoodidstraction: you're full of *** whirl Whirl: And YOU can't fight. agoodidstraction: i'm out Whirl: *getly untangles himself from Frenzy and Zori and stands up, streeetching* ItsyBitsySpyers: *Now that is a good reason for appreciating a lonely post out on Cybertron* agoodidstraction: prowl, lmk when ya finally schlurp it agoodidstraction: I CAN FIHT *** Rodimus: @Soundwave ::About lessons.... those still on the table?:: FakeProwl: Never. agoodidstraction: zap yaps responsibly agoodidstraction: bye fraggers ItsyBitsySpyers: *Frenzy rolls off and bounces to his pedes. Zori pats Whirl goodbye* ItsyBitsySpyers: ((byeeee)) Whirl: *examines a claw with a mock-bored air* Didn't look like it to me. *now turns his attention to Zori and beeps a farewell* ItsyBitsySpyers: @Rodimus: [[Which?]] Rodimus: @Sound ::I did already pay for one of thtem~:: Shockbox: Hm....*Can feel himself beginning to drift.* ItsyBitsySpyers: @Rodimus: [[Ah. Yes. Those are still available, if you wish.]] Airachnid: [quietly gets up to try and sneak out] ItsyBitsySpyers: *Ravage rumbles a goodbye* FakeProwl: *why is this song playing twice?* Whirl: *bosb his head* Seeya, Legs! FakeProwl: *............... oh.* Whirl: Get back to me on the fighting, yeah? Bruin: *time to call it a night, the wolves are all snoring in unison* ItsyBitsySpyers: @Shockbox: [[Perhaps you should return and rest.]] Airachnid: [nods to a few before disappearing] Shockbox: *Snaps his head up, then nods.* FakeProwl: *stands and looks at Bruin. at least a couple of his team appear to be asleep.* @Bruin «Can you get to the bridge by yourself?» ItsyBitsySpyers: *Gets calling his group to himself as well.* Whirl: Anyway! Well. ...what an interesting conversation this turned out to be. But, later, losers. Whirl: *waves adnd turns to trot for the door* Bruin: @Prowl ::Yeah, Sotters' still up, just these lazy bums  asleep:: Shockbox: @Soundwave: Yes. But....If it is not too much, I need to contact you at a later date. FakeProwl: @Bruin «Very well.» ItsyBitsySpyers: @Shockbox: [[It is not too much.]] Here: a frequency. Bruin: *picks up all three wolves, one over a shoulder and two under arms and heads out* Night ya'll Rodimus: See ya mech! ItsyBitsySpyers: [[Goodnight.]] Shockbox: *pings a thanks.* @Soundwave: Do you have a preferred time range? Rodimus: Ah SOundwave. ItsyBitsySpyers: @Shockbox: [[Any. He will answer the message when he can.]] ItsyBitsySpyers: [[Yes, Rodimus?]] Rodimus: YOu asked about New york ItsyBitsySpyers: [[Yes. He did.]] Shockbox: *he nods one last time before making his way out.* ItsyBitsySpyers: *Goodbye nod.* Shockbox: (( g'night. )) Rodimus: It's short I dont have your skills ItsyBitsySpyers: *Oh no.* FakeProwl: *... remembers this from the other side. rubs optics* ItsyBitsySpyers: *Ping. Prowl need to leave?* ItsyBitsySpyers: *Still watching though.* FakeProwl: *no. but he's sitting down again.* Rodimus: Such burns ItsyBitsySpyers: [[He sees.]] ItsyBitsySpyers: [[Thank you.]] Rodimus: That's it for footage but you get it our scale to earth-- and welll--- much less in disguse FakeProwl: We /were/ in disguise before then, for years. Rodimus wasn't on Earth then, so he wouldn't have known. Rodimus: ((that clip seemed the most likely to be easily salavaged lol ItsyBitsySpyers: *On the one hand, part of him wonders why his faction never managed to wreak as much damage as other timelines. On the other, given how much MORE things fell apart when they tried...* Rodimus: *optic rolls* FakeProwl: ((yeah, I figure a few dozen humans with cameras out recording the carnage)) Rodimus: You dont even know what we were talking about FakeProwl: And we went back into hiding afterwords, as much as we could. ItsyBitsySpyers: [[He appreciates both viewpoints.]] Rodimus: Yeah they didnt mange to wipe earth's populations due to us! FakeProwl: Then you may enlighten me. Rodimus: Made a pretty good dent thou Rodimus: *hand waves* So anyways I never got to see New York! ItsyBitsySpyers: [[And he is given to understand this was worldwide?]] ItsyBitsySpyers: [[Or nearly?]] Rodimus: The fighting wa--- yeah Rodimus: skirmishes mostly FakeProwl: They hit major metropolitan areas all over the planet. New York City was the first and worst. ItsyBitsySpyers: [[Have the f... the humans rebuilt?]] Rodimus: Some I guess. Certinally not rolling the welcome mat out to us I here. Prowl know that better Rodimus: He did have a dance with one of their towns... I hear ItsyBitsySpyers: *Looks over.* FakeProwl: After the Decepticons were forced out, the New Yorkers were moved to refugee camps nearby. FakeProwl: Over the next few years they began moving back in and rebuilding, but last I was there much of the city remained in ruins. ItsyBitsySpyers: @Prowl: [[Earth's coordinates?]] ItsyBitsySpyers: *He's curious. Wants to see this damage for himself, for comparison purposes.* FakeProwl: @Soundwave «... Why?» ItsyBitsySpyers: @Prowl: [[Recording. Data addition. Examples needed.]] Rodimus: ((my wife is crying over killing something in her game ItsyBitsySpyers: ((oh nooooo)) Rodimus: ((I am laughing at her FakeProwl: @Soundwave «Earth is armed and prepared in case of a new Cybertronian invasion, and there's an ongoing conflict between small Autobot and Decepticon forces. I recommend against it.» ItsyBitsySpyers: *They LEFT SOME THERE?* ItsyBitsySpyers: *Looks from one bot to the other* FakeProwl: *they WENT BACK* Rodimus: ((omg she cant even retell it without voice breaking FakeProwl: @Soundwave «They've had Cybertronian corpses, prisoners, and collaborators to help them prepare. I don't recommend a tourist trip.» ItsyBitsySpyers: ((give her a hundred hugs)) ItsyBitsySpyers: *Oh, there you go. NOW he doesn't want to go.* Rodimus: *helm tilt as he looks between them* ItsyBitsySpyers: [[He does not know which of you has access to the Earth, if either.]] Rodimus: *feels like the convo stopped suddenly cause he got left out. frowns* Rodimus: Huh? ItsyBitsySpyers: [[If you regain it and go, he wishes to be sent footage of what Earth looks like now.]] ItsyBitsySpyers: *"Now" meaning whenever they see it again, if they do.* FakeProwl: I was last on earth a little under a year and a half ago. I didn't bring footage back, but I can see if the Constructicons did. Jazz was there more recently. FakeProwl: *... and there might be others he can call.* ItsyBitsySpyers: *Nod. Even if he doesn't like Jazz.* Rodimus: *huffs now he is sure he was left out cause he isnt following this jump* ItsyBitsySpyers: @Rodimus: [[He would like to know more of what -you- witnessed when your lessons begin.]] Rodimus: @Spund ::Your vectorsigma peek wasnt enough?:: Rodimus: ((wtf fingers ItsyBitsySpyers: @Rodimus: [[You promised him multiple questions.]] Rodimus: *facepalms* ItsyBitsySpyers: *There, there, Rodimus. Prowl is holding one over on him too.* FakeProwl: *he's saving it for a special occasion* ItsyBitsySpyers: *And so he should.* Rodimus: Anyways I got my hands awesome footage of a parraell universe close to ours! ItsyBitsySpyers: *Did they have anything else they wanted to tell him, or should he take the original music cue and head toward the bridge...? Oh! Hmm.* ItsyBitsySpyers: [[What is it?]] Rodimus: *wiggles fingers* You'll see i am not going to watch it til i share it more fun that way! Rodimus: I mean I lived it! FakeProwl: *should head out himself. pings a farewell to Soundwave, and disappears.* ItsyBitsySpyers: *Pings farewell back.* ItsyBitsySpyers: *Rude, Rodimus. Getting his hopes up like that. Hmph* ItsyBitsySpyers: [[Then he will look forward to it.]] Rodimus: *blicks at hte other just *** off oh ok* Rodimus: *gota keep alluring!* Rodimus: So Waveers... I tihnk I need the control lessons first ItsyBitsySpyers: [[Of course you do. You can't do anything else without them.]] Rodimus: I seen some in the shows... how is your decoding abilites? ItsyBitsySpyers: [[Sufficient, for one who is not a warship with nothing to do except float and decode.]] Rodimus: *holds his hand up a sec* Just so you know this is a Captainy request ItsyBitsySpyers: *Tilts his helm.* ItsyBitsySpyers: [[Meaning?]] ItsyBitsySpyers: *You're not his Captain, after all.* Rodimus: YOu know... no repeating my words out of context and wrecking ***? Rodimus: *brow raise* ItsyBitsySpyers: [[As long as you do not ask him to do something that will harm his allies.]] Rodimus: Professionial request. *magnus voice* Rodimus: I got some uhm charts...? and designs that look like the stuff on some of those relics in the show Rodimus: Can you read -that- stuff? ItsyBitsySpyers: *Nods. With Laserbeak's help for the little he does not recognize.* Rodimus: ((its ok if you dont know if he can Rodimus: ((ok! ItsyBitsySpyers: ((if it's primal vernacular i have it set that he's not Great at it but the bird twins are old enough to cover)) ItsyBitsySpyers: ((if it's something even older he knows bits and pieces and/or can get help from their timeline's REALLY old bot)) Rodimus: Ok then! I may got some stuff for you to help on I am putting a team to try to decode them! Rodimus: Ok then you are free! ItsyBitsySpyers: *Now THAT'S a task worthy of him.* ItsyBitsySpyers: [[He will do his best to assist.]] ItsyBitsySpyers: *Rises and nods* ItsyBitsySpyers: *And unless he's stopped, will head out with everyone docked and Zori tagging behind* Rodimus: ((see ya! ItsyBitsySpyers: ((bye! thanks for hosting :D ))
