[ 001 Ϟ VIDEO ] What do I gotta do to get a drink around here?

[ This little adventure? Not exactly the vacation of a lifetime. Flashpoint's never missed her flask of engex more than now. She needs a drink, or she's gonna start rubbing the enamel clean off her faceplates. Sharing hangar number-why-do-they-need-this-many-hangars with Deadlock hasn't exactly encouraged peace-of-mind inducing solid recharge. Two extremely long weeks later she's finally got her own place though, and HELL YES the fabricators sure do make energon as well as organic food. There's just one critical problem. ]

[ They don't make booze. Apparently engex was not high on the engineering staff's list of quality of life enhancements for Cybertronians. Well, frag that. She'll just make her own. Uh. Somehow... ]

So. My people subsist on energon and the oh-so-kind engineers here have programmed the fabricators to make it but...

Mmmm...

I'm hoping to modify the formula. A little variety shall we say? Increased, uh, 'potency' most definitely.

[ Hopefully with inebriating effects. Hey, no one said it wasn't legal! Right? ]

Not a scientist though. Anyone give me a hand?

[ Yes, she really is asking for help making moonshine. ]

[And if this broadcast had fine print it would read 'proceed at your own risk; energon has explosive tendencies' but fine print means caution and caution + Flashpoint aren't exactly a common package deal.]

[B||||||| NOPE.]

[Wait...what'd she say?]

Uh.

[Right that place was supposed to be a secret. Or something.]

You talk in your sleep.

[YEAH. TOTALLY.]

So collaborate with me and it won't be 'Autobot engex'.

[Then come show her strong, Deadlock.]

[Oh yeah? Well...Deadlock's gonna dream that, then, since it bugs you so much. Maybe with added glittery stuff.]

[He squints.]

You listen to me sleep?

[Fraggin' ~creeeeeeepy~.]

Hnf. You couldn't handle real engex.

[HA. Deadlock likes dreaming about tutus and glittery stuff. Clearly this needs to be his noodlebot's next outfit. Wand included.]

You were doing it in the hangar with me.

[DUH. ...wait. That sounds. Bad.]

[And HA. Deadlock thinks she can't hold her drink. SNORT.]

Are you joking? [Please say you are because Deadlock with a sense of humor would be a breakthrough.] I could bench press your aft half-tanked and still drive home straight.

[B|]

Then I'm surprised you didn't hear me talk about all the ways I'm gonna frag you up.

[Hnf. Because that's the only thing he was thinking about at the time.]

Yeah, anyone can drive straight when they've got a top speed as low as yours.

[She'll share the photos on the network even!]

WOW! You think about me that much!? I'm flattered...

[:3]

[Seriously Deadlock, come at her and they'll see who gets fragged up.]

You can keep thinkin' that if it makes you feel better.

[Hey, share all the pictures of you in glittery tutus you want. Go for it. Deadlock will just...die laughing.]

Hard to avoid in an enclosed fraggin' space.

[She's clearly enjoying this too much. This sucks. ]

Keep thinking it because it's true. No Autobot can catch me on the ground.

[Not if it's his noodlebot instead, with an ACCURATE drawing of his face on it. Complete with rouge.]

If hangar bays qualify as enclosed spaces then I hope you never develop claustrophobia.

And if you say so. [She leans forward.] But what if I wanna get caught?

[She's just saying that to mess with him. TOTALLY.]

[You. Wouldn't. Dare.]

[Wait. Yes she would. Fraggit.]

Lived in the fraggin' gutters: think I could teach you a few things about claustrophobia.

[Wait. What? WHAT?]

You...get hit in the head or something?

[Yes. Yes she totally would.]

Lived for centuries on a one-man scoutship. Let's compare notes?

[You heard her, Deadlock!]

Not recently. So what would do once you caught me, huh?

[That's it. You get no noodlebot visitation rights. Weirdo.]

[But if you do do that, you can expect to die in sheer horror of what he's gonna do with yours. A-as soon as he thinks of it.]

Hnf. Least you had your own starship.

[Yeah? That all you got richy rich Autobot? Oh no, my space yacht was a little cramped!]

Heh. You don't want to know. [Because he has no idea.]

Stuff, though. BAD stuff.

[The suspense will be killing her! ...except without the dying part. Unless it's of laughter.]

S'what happens when the other Autobots can't handle you.

[More like she ostracized herself before they could, but whatever. DETAILS. Clearly unimportant things.]

Bad stuff for a bad girl, suits me just fine.

[No really Deadlock. Make her life interesting. PLEASE.]

[If you ever get a questionnaire that involves questions like 'what would make you want to kill yourself with embarrassment,', just, you know, fill it out and return it in the self addressed envelope. ]

What? You too good even for them?

[Hahahah so here she is, Princess Autobotica, stuck with a guttermech like him. ]

Hnf. Please. You wouldn't know what to do with 'bad' if you woke up next to it.

[She's make sure to fill it out with things involving Deadlock, just so there'd be mutually assured embarrassment.]

[Too good for the Autobots? Try the other way around. She narrows her optics and her mouth flattens into a strange shape though, she's not pulling off the flippancy guise quite as well this time.]

I don't play well with others.

[Which Deadlock clearly knows by now.]

[But oh wow what UM ahkdfhf]

[No really she does know exactly what she'd do with 'bad' if she woke up with it, her processor is providing examples right this very moment. SPUTTER. COUGH.]

Y-you gonna show me?

[Yeah that sounded confident, totally.]

[Ugh, no and why does she seem intent on ruining every one of his fantasies?]

Yeah, fraggin' noticed.

[And this is surely a newsflash but Deadlock doesn't play well with others, either.]

[And she can probably spot the instant the double meaning of the whole 'wake up next to it' thing hits his face. Frag. ]

[Wait. He's going to have to turn around and scrape up some bluster.]

Hnf. You think you deserve it?

[AHA. Tables, you have been turned.]

[But, but, isn't reciprocation a good thing!?]

[So neither of them plays well with others. ~~Clearly this is why they should play with each other.~~]

[She's gathering her own bluster like she's gonna turn this around on him, because HA he fell into his own trap, but then he comes back with that. Ouch. She knows the answer's a big fat 'NO', but she turns her head and frowns, hiding the flinch.]

PFFT. Why would I want to anyway?

[She totally wonldn't! Stop making her want to, jerk!]

[Not in fraggin' arguments with Deadlock. Nor in combat, for that matter. Pfeh. If she fought, she'd know that.]

Because you're crazy.

[Wait. Wait. That was a misfire. He didn't just imply that someone had to be crazy to want to hang out with him. ...frag, yes he did. Frag. ]

[What? Of course it is! It's just called retaliation. If he lasted past the first hit, he'd know what that is.]

[STARE. SPUTTER. SNICKER.]

Well if I am, then you are too.

[Takes one to know one; flawless mature logic!]

[Ugh, no, gross.]

We're nothing alike.

[For one thing, she's clearly better at this whole talking thing. ]

[She's TOO good at talking really. It's gotten her where she is now: friendless and with regrets.]

Suits me!

[She pulls face that might include sticking her glossa out at him if she were a few millennium younger. Eww they agreed on something! What is even happening?]

[Deadlock sucks at talking and he's in the same fix, so...yay?

[No, wait. There's no 'yay' it's him agreeing with her again.]

Good. So shut up. And let me know when you need me.

[And don't try to make sense of that.]

[See, they really don't have anything in common at all. ~~That they admit to.~~]

[Wait WAT?]

Riiiiiight. [She thinks that's an appropriate response to those two totally contrsdictory statements.] Will do.

[Ending the transmission sounds good right about now, before this gets any weirder.]
