Sept 11 Dancitron Movie Night - The Matrix

Once the eerily Patch-esque tech came out, Prowl basically didn’t move the whole movie. And so nobody talked to him. It’s your own fault, Prowl.

ItsyBitsySpyers 7:53 pm *Snacks are laid out as per usual, as are the chairs. Soundwave is partially turned in his seat, just enough to let him keep one foot on the ground and the other on the seat with him; he seems to be in a pleasant enough mood.*

*Rumble and Frenzy are bickering over a pile of small discs sitting between them.*

*None of the others are here.* FakeProwl 7:58 pm *Appears, checks to make sure there isn't a Shockwave in his usual spot, and sits.* Tarantulas 7:59 pm *believe it or not, Tarantulas is going to show up a bit early today, slouching his way toward Soundwave and Prowl - room for a spide?* Swoop 8:01 pm *runs in full speed only to slide across the floor like Tom Cruise* ItsyBitsySpyers 8:01 pm *Ping hello. Complete with feeler tendrils wave.*

*Soundwave pats a spot next to himself and nods to Tarantulas. Welcome.* //Listen, Swoop, if ya wanted an introduction music, ya shoulda asked ahead.// Swoop 8:01 pm *skitters here, there, and everywhere* Huh? FakeProwl 8:01 pm *Greeting/permission ping.* Swoop 8:01 pm Oh Keheehee Where Bird?? ItsyBitsySpyers 8:02 pm [[...Recovering. She - had a minor shock.]] Swoop 8:03 pm ????? Shock????? *immediately starts to head for upstairs* ItsyBitsySpyers 8:03 pm *Will let him go. Swoop knows how to act up there.* boomtank 8:03 pm -is here now- Swoop 8:03 pm *later losers he's got a bird to investigate* ItsyBitsySpyers 8:04 pm [[Greetings, Blaster. Tired again?]] ((TEN MINUTE WARNING get your whatever you need now)) FakeProwl 8:04 pm *Laserbeak electrocuted Prowl quite thoroughly. What kind of shock would it take to harm HER?* @Soundwave «Is she significantly damaged?» boomtank 8:05 pm Hey, Soundwave...not really tired. Stressed. ItsyBitsySpyers 8:05 pm @Prowl: [[...She spent two hours complaining that she'd gone blind from seeing Bonecrusher's array, but it was a lie.]] @Prowl: [[She will be fine.]] FakeProwl 8:06 pm ... *very casually leans forward and laces his hands in front of his mouth.* Tarantulas 8:06 pm *whatwhat, sitting next to Soundwave would mean not next to Prowl... but Soundwave offered, so why not. Tara will be sprawling and starting to take over half of Soundwave's lap* ItsyBitsySpyers 8:06 pm [[You really must get away for a while, Blaster. Take a weekend somewhere.]] FakeProwl 8:07 pm @Soundwave «You'll have to let me know when YOU'RE on monitor duty.» boomtank 8:07 pm Considering the last time I 'took time off' I ended up stranded in a different timeline... ItsyBitsySpyers 8:07 pm *Soundwave moves his arms out of the way to allow this to happen. It's a little late to be complaining about a spider in his personal space all things considered.* boomtank 8:08 pm I think that's bad for my health Tarantulas 8:08 pm *yisss. accept the spide, sw* Swoop 8:08 pm *is absolutely ready able and willing to exact revenge however Bird wants it, give him a direction he'll do whatever* ItsyBitsySpyers 8:08 pm [[...Find a better travel agent.]] *Bird will cling to Swoop like the many, many barnacles loosed upon this world.* @Prowl: [[...He can arrange for you to find that out.]] boomtank 8:10 pm -snorts in laughter- I'll look for one ItsyBitsySpyers 8:10 pm [[Cozy, Tarantulas?]] Tarantulas 8:10 pm *an arm's reached over sw's lap to pet at prowl's leg* Prowllll FakeProwl 8:11 pm @Soundwave «I'd appreciate it. ... More importantly, I think Laserbeak would appreciate it.» Swoop 8:11 pm *omg bird hug <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 he will volunteer to murder people and burn down buildings more often if this is what happens* Tarantulas 8:11 pm *cozy enough to gently swat at sw's visor for that comment, apparently* FakeProwl 8:11 pm *Pats idly at Tarantulas's claw.* Yes? ItsyBitsySpyers 8:12 pm *Jolts back a bit. No touch the visor.* FakeProwl 8:13 pm *Sudden movement? Glances over.* Tarantulas 8:13 pm *snickering at sw, mentally reassures him no harm intended* boomtank 8:13 pm -settles on a chair, pulls out datapad- ItsyBitsySpyers 8:13 pm *As long as Swoop doesn't ACTUALLY burn buildings and murder while he's here, that's fine.* Tarantulas 8:14 pm *to prowl* ...Helloooo. *keeps petting his leg* FakeProwl 8:14 pm ... Hello. Swoop 8:14 pm *that is 100% Bird's decision kthx* *would totally go down stairs and start tearing limbs off if she wanted fyi* Bevel 8:15 pm *arrives with a very loud clatter as she drops the screwdriver she had been trying to tuck into a storage compartment in her arm, like you do* ItsyBitsySpyers 8:15 pm *She does not want. But she will go downstairs with him. Just keep her away from Prowl.* Swoop 8:15 pm *dude fuck prowl* ItsyBitsySpyers 8:15 pm *No, that's her Boss.* FakeProwl 8:15 pm *no thanks, he had plenty last night.* Bevel 8:16 pm *omg* ItsyBitsySpyers 8:16 pm [[Cold hands, Bevel?]] Swoop 8:16 pm *skitters back downstairs with Bird, making a beeline for the treats, boy knows what's up* ItsyBitsySpyers 8:16 pm *She has him well-trained* Bevel 8:17 pm I think I have too much stuff in here. *picks up the screwdriver and walks over to a free table so she can start pulling things out of her arm* Tarantulas 8:18 pm *to prowl* I haven't seen you in so lonnng. You ought to come visit more often. Swoop 8:18 pm ...... *sets Bird on his crest so he can steal two arms worth of treats* FakeProwl 8:18 pm I'm here every week. Tarantulas 8:18 pm But I'M not necessarily here every week. Besides, it only half-counts. FakeProwl 8:18 pm YOU ought to come visit more often. Tarantulas 8:19 pm I - I can't visit you, Prowl. FakeProwl 8:19 pm I meant here. ItsyBitsySpyers 8:19 pm ((here are the belated warnings: little bit of body horror type stuff, violence, drugs, uhhh, somewhat outdated Edge that was mold breaking at the time, mind control???)) ((and now if we're all ready?)) Swoop 8:19 pm *makes several trips around, grabbing stuff and depositing it as far from Prowl as possible while still debtably being able to see the screen, it's halfassed blanket fort time, Bird can snack while he proceeds to pile things "properly"* Tarantulas 8:20 pm (( ready! boomtank 8:20 pm ((all good best decepticon leader 8:20 pm (ready ItsyBitsySpyers 8:21 pm [[As long as you get it all cleaned before you leave.]] *Lazy wave at Bevel.* Bevel 8:21 pm Will do!

I don't have you all to myself here. *believe it or not, soundwave, tarantulas is radiating mostly innocent intent* ItsyBitsySpyers 8:41 pm *He'll choose to believe it, mostly because he's certain Tarantulas isn't dense enough to be rude like that while actually across his lap.* ((THERE WE GO and here we go)) Swoop 8:42 pm *has officially created a movie nest (yes there is blue thank you for asking) and settles in with Bird and treats, doing his best to not pancake her while also blocking Prowl's stupid face with his wings* FakeProwl 8:42 pm Pff. Fine. We have some matters we need to discuss anyway. Whirl 8:42 pm ((OKAY what did i miss i see it's only been a few minutes)) Tarantulas 8:42 pm *mystified* Do we?

That was also done?]] Swoop 8:52 pm It true ItsyBitsySpyers 8:53 pm \\ME TOO.\\ FakeProwl 8:53 pm *Prowl's completely sure that the humans are working with a different definition of a familiar word, but he can't help but feel like this is a movie about a bunch of hackers trying to figure out what the Matrix of Leadership is.* ItsyBitsySpyers 8:53 pm *Rumble trots back over with two cubes, scaled to size of course.* boomtank 8:53 pm ..... Yep, lost me Whirl 8:54 pm Thanks. *he'll scoop his up and kick back* Swoop 8:54 pm kehehehheh Him funny running scared ItsyBitsySpyers 8:54 pm *Wonders where the caller is watching him from.

@Prowl: [[...He did not know.]] Whirl 9:21 pm *PFFT YEP and that's about as pleasant as the real world is vs. the shelter his mind made for himself* Bevel 9:22 pm Oh they are batteries!

Bevel 9:43 pm Shockwave is neut--*what Soundwave said* Whirl 9:44 pm Well, I guess TECHNICALLY Thunderwing was a 'Con at first, but right before he nuked the planet, he was trying to play both sides. But yeah, I'm gonna rank the fella who made Cybertron basically uninhabitable until very recently the most dangerous of us.

If Prowl is afraid of those going in without permission, then watching them be pulled out without a proper disconnect is his own. A much, much, much tinier fear.

ItsyBitsySpyers 10:37 pm [[The point is that they are faster than the guns.]] Whirl 10:37 pm Guns are fun when they're used creatively. ELEGANTLY. This movie just uses them like a bulldozer.

((a+ beegees selection <3)) Windchill 10:57 pm *He likes this one, but it's not so easy to make into something ridiculous, so he'll be quiet.* ((I Love the Bee Gees omg. )) ItsyBitsySpyers 10:57 pm *That's more or less it.*

@Prowl: (txt): ...Prowl: frozen? Assistance required? Brief departure? Tarantulas 10:58 pm *nudges at prowl* I ought to leave soon, but you're more than welcome to come with me FakeProwl 10:58 pm @Soundwave «No. Fine. Just didn't have any reason to move my avatar.» ItsyBitsySpyers 10:58 pm *Oh, good. He was starting to grow concerned Prowl had gone catatonic on them.* Tarantulas 10:58 pm I'd invite you too, Soundwave, but it sounds like we have a project to work on, hyeh FakeProwl 10:58 pm ... Let's schedule a later meeting. Tomorrow maybe. ItsyBitsySpyers 10:59 pm //Whirl. Whirl, y'see the Boss right now?// Whirl 10:59 pm *glances over at the Circus in momentary curiosity* Mm-hmm? ItsyBitsySpyers 10:59 pm //That's his expression. All the time, any time.// ItsyBitsySpyers 10:59 pm //Do I get good money now?// ItsyBitsySpyers 10:59 pm *Cheeky grin* Whirl 11:00 pm Pfft. I mean. Technically you're right. *except we BOTH know that's not true; Whirl has seen The Truth* All right, whaddya define as good money? ItsyBitsySpyers 11:00 pm @Tarantulas: [[He would not mind an invitation soon.]] Windchill 11:00 pm *Subtly lifts a leg, as subtly as something his size can do anything, which is not at all.* Whirl 11:00 pm Oh, hey. Here we go. Nice choice. Tarantulas 11:00 pm Whenever you like, Prowl. *almost called him love. thought better of it for the moment* ItsyBitsySpyers 11:01 pm //...Bev. You was a mercenary lately. What's good money now?// Whirl 11:01 pm *gestures to Windchill when the song says "clowns." Gestures to Rumble when it says "Jokers."* Tarantulas 11:01 pm *mental hum/nod to soundwave - he'll see about it soon enough* Windchill 11:01 pm *You haven't even SEEN a clown yet.* FakeProwl 11:01 pm *jerky nod of acknowledgment to Tarantulas.* Bevel 11:01 pm Depends on what services are being asked for. ItsyBitsySpyers 11:01 pm *The finest of jokers, thank you.* Windchill 11:02 pm *Slowly swings his leg into Whirl's airspace.* Bevel 11:02 pm And who you are working for. Bots that can afford it pay more. And good causes pay less. Whirl 11:02 pm You better not be about to put that leg on me. ItsyBitsySpyers 11:02 pm //Pointin' out the Boss don't got no other expression.// Lying, essentially. //'N Whirl. But he could get a discount. Like ... 20%.// Whirl 11:02 pm *this time he's going to gesture to Windchill for both descriptors* Bevel 11:02 pm *giggles* Whirl 11:02 pm Uh, exCUSE you. I'm worth at l;east twice that! Windchill 11:03 pm *Taps his toe in the air seductively.* Whirl 11:03 pm *looks to Rumble in mock-offense* ItsyBitsySpyers 11:03 pm *Hey, Tarantulas. Do you remember what Soundwave originally thought you were going to meet him looking like a while back? Yeah. That mental image is just gonna sliiiiide over. Little suggestion for a topic.* //Right. So that's... what, 30? I never been good at math. Jus' philosophy.// Windchill 11:03 pm *GASPS.* ItsyBitsySpyers 11:04 pm //...I never did get them answers.// Windchill 11:04 pm *Leg freezes mid air.* Whirl 11:04 pm 40%. ...wait what answers? Windchill 11:04 pm *He's singing along fuckos.* Whirl 11:04 pm *he... will not join you this time. But he respects this* Windchill 11:04 pm *Your loss dude.* ItsyBitsySpyers 11:04 pm //The infinite math stuff.// ItsyBitsySpyers 11:05 pm //...CAUSE THE DAMN BARNACLES.// ItsyBitsySpyers 11:05 pm *Laughing. It's funnier now that they're not trying to stick to him.* Whirl 11:05 pm *SNRK* Well, you'll have to get an encore, I guess. Windchill 11:05 pm *His toe is tapping again, sorry Whirl.* Tarantulas 11:06 pm *HHfff. Tara's flustered but tempted, damn you Soundwave* Bevel 11:06 pm *starts slowly putting things back from the table into her arm* ItsyBitsySpyers 11:06 pm \\HEADIN' OUT?\\ Bevel 11:07 pm Not yet. Tarantulas 11:07 pm @SW: [[Not - not now. Nor anytime soon.]] Whirl 11:08 pm *cycles a long breath* I think I am, though. Gotta find a place to tuck in for the night. *streeetches again* Windchill 11:08 pm *Song's over, he'll put his foot down now. Not on Whirl either.* Whirl 11:08 pm *Good. You get to keep your foot* Windchill 11:08 pm *Don't be MEAN.* Whirl 11:08 pm *hey he owned a leg of yours for a while, this is nothing new* ItsyBitsySpyers 11:09 pm //Okay. But you better come back. I ain't figured out that discount yet.// Windchill 11:09 pm *He still owns the leg probably.* Bevel 11:09 pm *for one thing there's a lot of stuff on the table, it's gonna take her a bit to put it all back* *and she still needs to fit that screwdriver* ItsyBitsySpyers 11:09 pm *Good. Frenzy's gonna try to sneak that screwdriver off the table and pocket it.* @Tarantulas: [[As you wish.]] Whirl 11:09 pm Of COURSE I will. *pause; Whirl contemplates something. After a moment, he nudges Rumble* Y'know you don't have to worry about that. Unless I get hopelessly lost or someone comes for my bounty, but, pfft, as if I couldn't fight 'em off. Tarantulas 11:10 pm *trying to oh-so-casually untangle himself from the pile he created now, totally not just escaping soundwave's telepathy, oh no* Bevel 11:10 pm *she pins that reaching hand with a single digit and grins* ItsyBitsySpyers 11:10 pm *Lets his arm up so Tarantulas can get out from beneath it.* FakeProwl 11:11 pm *Prowl's hands are dead and definitely not curled in Tarantuals's setae, should be easy to escape.* Tarantulas 11:11 pm Comm me, Prowl? ItsyBitsySpyers 11:11 pm //Anybody fightin' you's gonna eat all the bullets that Neo fleshie didn't.// Chuckles. //Kay.// FakeProwl 11:12 pm *Jerky nod.* Tarantulas 11:12 pm *visor frown* Whirl 11:12 pm And explosives. And my claws. And my sword. Windchill 11:12 pm And your bad jokes. ItsyBitsySpyers 11:12 pm //That's the real deadly scrap.// Windchill 11:12 pm Don't forget those. ItsyBitsySpyers 11:13 pm *Frenzy lifts his hand, shifts it into a drill, and points it at Bevel's finger. He wouldn't actually, but she wouldn't actually either.* Whirl 11:13 pm My bad jokes are NOTHING compared to yours. You need to teach me your ways. Bevel 11:14 pm *laughs and flips the screwdriver toward him* Tarantulas 11:14 pm *a few goodbye pings and a general dismissal of the room, and tarantulas is out* Windchill 11:14 pm *Scratches his chin.* Mine are pretty bad... But you burn me more often, so it's fair. *It's all about equilibrium, see.* Whirl 11:15 pm Yeah. All right, I need to go if I'm gonna score a decent spot. Tired of sleeping on the wing. *stands up* Take care of yourselves, losers. All of ya. Windchill 11:15 pm Bye, loser. Sleep well. ItsyBitsySpyers 11:15 pm //Seeya.// *Punch* Whirl 11:15 pm *he will scoop up his stuff and pause; he feels like he should say something more. he's... still very new to this and not good at it at all. He glances to Rumble* I'll keep in touch. *snickers and quite happily takes the punch* ItsyBitsySpyers 11:16 pm *Frenzy snatches the screwdriver out of thin air and motions to Bevel's arm. Open up.* Whirl 11:16 pm You sleep well, too. *salutes Windchill* As much as you can with that horrid little wriggler thrashing about. Bevel 11:17 pm *she stares at him a moment before complying, he does spend time with the medics in Praxus* Windchill 11:17 pm I usually do. *Salutes back.* She sleeps like a dead thing. *Takes after him in that aspect, really.* Whirl 11:17 pm Just like her parent. All right, I'll see you lot next week. *shoulders his bag and bobs his helm at the room one last time, before turning and trotting away* ItsyBitsySpyers 11:18 pm *Frenzy pokes his tongue out the side of his mouth, takes careful aim, and flicks it into the arm compartment.* Windchill 11:19 pm *Waves at Whirl's retreating butt.* ItsyBitsySpyers 11:19 pm *Then throws his hands in the air and shouts (duh)* \\GOAL!\\ Windchill 11:19 pm *And the rest of him.* Bevel 11:19 pm *it clatters into something that could be described as a place where it'll likely be impossible to reach in the future* Good job! ItsyBitsySpyers 11:19 pm *Just get Rolodex to stick their tiny hands in and get it* Bevel 11:20 pm *she will do that* Bevel 11:22 pm *well now that's done, she's gonna call that task completed and snap her armor back into place* Thanks for the help, Frenzy. ItsyBitsySpyers 11:22 pm \\YEP. USUALLY THAT'S FOR KILLIN' STUFF, BUT. Y'KNOW.\\ Windchill 11:23 pm *Stretches. He HUNGERS.* I'm out, suckers. ItsyBitsySpyers 11:23 pm *Stretch.* \\I'M OUT. GONNA SEE 'BOUT EJECT'S NEW GAME.\\ [[Goodnight, Windchill.]] Bevel 11:23 pm Have fun! Windchill 11:24 pm Byyyyyyyyyyyyeeeeeeeeee. *This drones on for as long as it takes for him to rise and cha cha backwards out of the room.* Bevel 11:27 pm Ok, I am gonna go now too. *probably go home and empty out her storage again because she needed that, Frenzy* ItsyBitsySpyers 11:28 pm [[Goodnight. Tell your creator to pick up their files tomorrow.]] Bevel 11:28 pm Huh? Oh, ok! I can do that. *she's going to pry about what files and be told to mind her own business* *ok, she's out now, bye everybody* ItsyBitsySpyers 11:30 pm *Nods after her and settles in for watching his last remaining guest.* FakeProwl 11:31 pm *... Is watching all he's going to do?* ItsyBitsySpyers 11:35 pm *Yes. No? He's thinking about it. It's been a while since Prowl has been so put off by something. The movie at Blurr's, with the hypnosis, and then a while before that. Sometimes hands work and sometimes there shouldn't be any. And he knows what helps -him-, or what he seeks when he doesn't want help-help, but that's a whole other ball of wax.*

*So.*

(txt): Query: What wanted, this moment? ItsyBitsySpyers 11:36 pm (txt): Additional thought: Soundwave apologizes. Will screen sequels, warn if attended. FakeProwl 11:39 pm Nothing. I haven't indicated I want anything. There's nothing to apologize for. FakeProwl 11:40 pm *Well, there's nothing to look at on the screen anymore. Turns in Soundwave's general direction.* ItsyBitsySpyers 11:40 pm (txt): Nonindication: known. Question purpose: check action options, requirements, if existing. (txt): If none, action not taken. Nothing else meant. FakeProwl 11:41 pm No requirements. ItsyBitsySpyers 11:41 pm *Small nod. All right, then.* (txt): Music continuation: acceptable? FakeProwl 11:42 pm Acceptable. ItsyBitsySpyers 11:43 pm (txt): Mutual reposition? FakeProwl 11:43 pm What? Oh. Yes. Sure. ItsyBitsySpyers 11:46 pm *Another nod. Soundwave scoots into the spot he vacated for Tarantulas to take and twists. He beckons once and tilts his helm, questioning, but if Prowl doesn't care to join him, that's all right too.*

(txt): Noteworthy news known? FakeProwl 11:47 pm *He scoots in and leans against Soundwave.* ... You stopped talking to me after I asked you to stop using telepathy. *It's not news, but it's what's on Prowl's mind.* ItsyBitsySpyers 11:51 pm *Not scared of him, at least. That's reassuring.*

*He wraps an arm around Prowl and sets himself to lazily petting one arm.*

(txt): ...Correct action: uncertain. Prowl: motionless; circumstance possibility: known telepath contact: more unsettling. Decision: Safer first conact: Prowl's. (txt): If impression: rejection, this: unintended. FakeProwl 11:52 pm ... So you assumed. Instead of asking. ItsyBitsySpyers 11:54 pm *Leans back a little and looks from optic to optic.*

(txt): ...Soundwave's understanding: Contact made, purpose: check contact permission: self-defeating. This, error? *He supposes he can see that.* FakeProwl 11:55 pm I asked you not to use telepathy. Not to stop talking to me. ... I suppose I'm glad to find out I WASN'T getting the silent treatment. ...... So to speak. Yesterday ItsyBitsySpyers 11:59 pm *Oh. That's. That's a good point.*

(txt): Soundwave's error: acknowledged. Appropriate action understanding updated. Confirmation: not silent treatment.

(txt): Prowl - needed talk? Wants now? FakeProwl 12:02 am I didn't need it. But that is why I show up to these things. *He'd needed it.* *Doesn't count as lying if he's lying to himself first.* ItsyBitsySpyers 12:06 am *Looks down, thinking. That, too, makes sense. Prowl could have left if he was upset and didn't want to stick around for conversation. Easily.*

(txt): ...Understood.

*Navigating these things is harder than he'd ever thought. Communication's easy to handle when it's everyone ELSE'S and not his own, it seems.*

(txt): Then error - assumption - result: deficit. Soundwave's offer: balance budget. FakeProwl 12:07 am ... It would be nice if, every once in a while, you did what you want to do, rather than what you think I want you to do. ItsyBitsySpyers 12:20 am (txt): Soundwave wants. Post-movie conversations... highlight. Comfortable tradition.

*The petting hand stills. After a pause, more honestly:*

(txt): Other thoughts during movie: test fight, teach Prowl similar activity, compare experiences, terminate Wheeljack. Some: unacceptable. FakeProwl 12:22 am I meant when you stopping talking in the first place. *He permits the corner of his mouth to twitch.* Although I can see why not EVERYTHING you want to do is an option. ItsyBitsySpyers 12:25 am *Sometimes has the suspicion Prowl would like him a lot less if he actually heard how much of that 'not everything you want to do is an option' stuff runs through Soundwave's head on a daily basis.*

(txt): ...Prowl returns next week? Similar situation expected? FakeProwl 12:27 am "Situation"? ItsyBitsySpyers 12:27 am (txt): Telepathy revocation. FakeProwl 12:28 am ... Probably. ItsyBitsySpyers 12:35 am *Nod.*

(txt): Soundwave texts. If Prowl: involved, movie: superior experience. Idea discussion, humor, sarcasm, new viewpoints - all liked. Silence maintenance, conversation avoidance: difficult.

(txt): ...Admission: Ongoing partial vow: worse. That, different; point not withdrawn.

*Hand flick.* FakeProwl 12:36 am ... Partial vow? ItsyBitsySpyers 12:38 am [][][]Vow of silence. Such a copout.[][][]

(txt): Small breaks committed since multiverse introduction. Spirit kept. FakeProwl 12:39 am *Prowl had thought that was the one he was referring to. But he hadn't thought the vow was difficult to keep.* Is it that hard to not talk? I'd think by now it'd be more difficult to MAKE yourself talk, if only out of habit. ItsyBitsySpyers 12:43 am (txt): Prowl: not wrong.

*Sometimes, he really wants to say things with his own voice. He wanted to say - that - with his own voice. And in an ideal world, he could have. But this isn't one, so even if he'd managed to make himself jump the hurdle and do it, it wouldn't have gotten out of his vocalizer. It hadn't even worked in text.* FakeProwl 12:44 am *... Blinks. Is pretty sure that contradicts the claim Soundwave just made. Well. Okay.* ItsyBitsySpyers 12:45 am *Prowl needs to re-listen. Soundwave said it was worse and different.* FakeProwl 12:45 am *Words are hard.* ItsyBitsySpyers 12:45 am *That they are.* ItsyBitsySpyers 12:47 am *He finally gets back to petting the arm.*

(txt): ...What learned? Source: movie. FakeProwl 12:50 am "Learned"? Just that humans hate machines. And that's not new. ItsyBitsySpyers 12:51 am *Shakes his helm.*

(txt): Negative. Other truths found. FakeProwl 12:52 am I suppose I also learned that humans are deeply self-loathing, but I also suppose that's not new either. ItsyBitsySpyers 12:52 am *Huff. Again, not wrong.* ItsyBitsySpyers 12:56 am (txt): Perhaps other opening question: better.

(txt): What known, Soundwave's ability? FakeProwl 12:56 am Only what you and your alternate have demonstrated. ItsyBitsySpyers 12:58 am (txt): Prowl recalls tapes, subject: cortical patch? FakeProwl 1:01 am *A moment of silence.* Yes. ItsyBitsySpyers 1:06 am *And one on his end. He doesn't want to frighten Prowl off, but... he needs Prowl to understand a few things. For the well-being and safety of both of them.*

(txt): ...Here, patch: Shockwave's creation. Soundwave, ability: model source.

(txt): Soundwave assumes patch, Matrix jack visual similarity noticed. FakeProwl 1:07 am Yes. *It was, indeed, one of the things that occurred to him, after the sickly shock of seeing/feeling a single oversized mnemosurgeon's finger jam into a neck.* ItsyBitsySpyers 1:12 am *Nod. Good.*

(txt): Question repetition. What learned, source: movie? FakeProwl 1:14 am ... What am I supposed to learn? That humans can imagine up the same concepts that Cybertronians can? I don't know what lesson you want me to take away from this. ItsyBitsySpyers 1:33 am *All right. So it didn't stick out as much as he thought it might've.*

(txt): Patch safety feature: consciousness mingle, mind-frame relation minimized. Megatron shooting Bumblebee: impossible. Experienced pain: none. Physical reaction: intense emotion expression.

(txt): Soundwave's ability: natural, not tested invention. Safety features: absent.

(txt): Soundwave's internal control, rule modification ability: immense. However, mind-frame transfer: possible. Example: If interpretation: cold, Soundwave: cold. If serious injury suffered, believed, Soundwave: damaged.

(txt): If disconnected early, damage expected. Permanent consciousness loss possible.

(txt): Prowl desires renewed telepathic contact. Soundwave's plea: If eventual progression: below surface, Prowl exercises caution, attempts retention despite potential panic. Seeks safe disengagement. Gifted program -not- toy, simple safety ward; current, modified use: actual threat counter only.

(txt): Prowl understands? FakeProwl 1:35 am *Prowl doesn't know how Soundwave expected Prowl to deduce that somehow Soundwave functions the same way that a human fantasy film does, but okay.* ItsyBitsySpyers 1:36 am *He didn't expect him to deduce. He thought Prowl might wonder.* *Especially after the "DON'T DISCONNECT ME" comments during the Springer planning and rescue.* FakeProwl 1:36 am If there's a potential for panic, you won't BE invited below the surface. That's not a risk I would take, for either of us. ItsyBitsySpyers 1:38 am (txt): Relief. Extended request: If Soundwave: contacting other, harm not done, avoid disruption unless calculation demonstrates higher Soundwave, deployer safety risk: connection maintenance. Reasons: same. *If he's ever found hurting someone Prowl doesn't want him to hurt, well. He'll have to deal with the consequences of his actions.* FakeProwl 1:40 am I don't know that I have enough data to accurately calculate that safety risk. ItsyBitsySpyers 1:42 am (txt): ...Prowl's estimates trusted above others' accurate calculations.

*If a bomb's about to drop on him, he'll take his chances getting disconnected.* FakeProwl 1:42 am I'd rather be able to make an accurate calculation than an estimate. FakeProwl 1:44 am Of course, I'll do my best with the data I have at hand. But I'd prefer more data. ItsyBitsySpyers 1:47 am (txt): Cannot give all. Self loss, potential death: unacceptable tests, reasons: obvious.

(txt): Given time, Prowl acquires data accessible within mutual capabilities, desires. That, best offer. FakeProwl 1:50 am *Nod.* Understood. ItsyBitsySpyers 1:50 am *Reaches for Prowl's hand.* FakeProwl 1:56 am *Hand moves just enough to lace with Soundwave's.* ItsyBitsySpyers 1:57 am *Good. Squeeze.*

(txt): That, Soundwave's wanted talk. Prowl has, had own? Observations, frustrations, comparisons, other? ItsyBitsySpyers 2:00 am (txt): If preference: save until next week, this also accepted. *Gonna just cover all his bases there. Safety.* FakeProwl 2:00 am I have no comments on the film. ItsyBitsySpyers 2:01 am (txt): Unrelated comments? FakeProwl 2:03 am ... I suppose not at the moment. ItsyBitsySpyers 2:06 am (txt): Understood. Suggestion: recharge? FakeProwl 2:07 am *Hesitates, but then nods* ItsyBitsySpyers 2:08 am (txt): Preference: couch, secure quarters, without Soundwave? FakeProwl 2:09 am ... Secure quarters. ItsyBitsySpyers 2:11 am (txt): Acknowledged. Bridge coming.

*One's going to pop open next to the couch; he'll move them both by stretching his feelers in first, wrapping the berth for stability, and lifting them over and through.* FakeProwl 2:13 am *Holds on tight. They're gonna go through a different way every time, huh?* ItsyBitsySpyers 2:15 am *Prowl was snuggled up a little closer the other time by virtue of being on his lap. If he dropped them like this chances are Prowl would hit the berth wrong and fall off the side.* *Which might be amusing, but ultimately isn't what he'd like to do to his ally.* FakeProwl 2:19 am *Prowl appreciates the consideration.* ItsyBitsySpyers 2:21 am *Good. Soundwave's gonna consider him right into being a big black and white blanket clutched close for the rest of the night.* FakeProwl 2:22 am *Prowl's fine with that.*
