Z'verse 3. Dalla's garden. Search for Swindle

[swindle-blitz.livejournal.com]

Blitzwing had never been this frantic before in his life.

Check that.. the Icy persona thought to himself as he appeared in what seemed to be a garden of some sort, I haven't been this frantic since I became a Decepticon. He refused to let either Hothead or Random out at this time, calming himself down. He was doing something, he couldn't be faulted for that.

But why the slag was he getting so worried about that fragging glitch-rat anyway?

Because it's my fault he was taken out of the Dream in the first place, Icy responded to the thought, unsure from which of the three of them it came from. If he hadn't dragged him out with him that one time, Swindle would probably be home, safe, not Spark-Knows-Where.

Dalla blinks at the sudden silence and looks toward her guest quizzically. "What is it?"

[swindle-blitz.livejournal.com]

"Huh, what?" Blitzwing says, "Oh...just thinking..."

Remember when Swindle said Blitzwing was a glitch-headed tease?

[random_xtras]

"Would it be rude to ask what you're thinking about?" she asks cautiously, remembering this indeed.

"Just a little...teasing fodder..." Random giggles. If he's right, of course.

"This isn't going to get Miss Walker damaged again, is it?" Her expression goes to stern amusement.

"No, no, of course not," Random says, "It'll be something to annoy him with when we're working."

[random_xtras]

"Ahhh." She plays her play, then grabs a huge citrus fruit from the bowl. "How are you for refreshments?"

[swindle-blitz.livejournal.com]

Random looked down at the bowl that was now at his side. It was still half full--all three had been too busy talking, or letting the others talk in Hothead's case--to be eating. "I'm still good," Blitzwing said.

"I wish there were something I could offer you to drink." She leans on her fist as she waits his move, her free hand gently smoothing Smoke's back.

Then one ear perks. "Are that plant's roots moving?"

[swindle-blitz.livejournal.com]

Random just shrugs, he's good with the rocks, but at Dalla's question, he turns to look at the plant.

And gapes.

He quickly shifts to Icy, "Runeflux? That plant's been extinct for half a million stellar cycles!"

[random_xtras]

Dalla blinks and turns her head to look at the herbage in question. "...Obviously not, if it's in my sitting hall. Though I've never seen it before."

[swindle-blitz.livejournal.com]

"Well, at least in my reality it has..." Icy clarifies, but if Dalla's never seen it before..., "I wonder where it came from. That thing would be worth a fortune back home...Wonder if Swindle knows..."

[random_xtras]

"Well," says his hostess slowly. "That servant was one of the ones I sent to carry Swindle and Zoe's packages for them."

"Well, I'd say he definately knows about it, then," Blitzwing said, amused.
