Nexus. Blue's Bar. There and Back Again

((From here))

Random follows the larger mech with his passengers into the bar, not really wanting to be the first one in.

Once he is in, however, he looks around slowly, trying to be casual, but he ends up returning his gaze to a certain spot in one corner of the bar . . .

Comments

Optimus rumbles softly, then smiles as Silvershot's optics go toward the sound. "Do you want to come back now? Shall I take you, Silvershot?"

The sparklet squeaks, but then flails and starts as a bang comes from the door.

"No," says the deep alto of Blackout, sounding astonishingly patient. "You have to duck lower, Mouse. Yes. Good!"

Blue looks up as the big Decepticon leads the female members of her army over to the bar, then hands Silvershot and candy over to Optimus, her expression going stern. "Excuse me. I've got to make sure no one decides anyone else needs a kiss."

Elita watches her go and then muffles a chuckle behind her hand.

As the new femmes come in, Random pulls himself away from his Sunrise long enough to watch the procession. He shoots a confused look Blue's way at her comment and his confusion increases when he notices Elita chuckling.

And Optimus notices the confusion despite the wary optic he's got fixed on the big Decepticon femme. "Blackout's... aggressively affectionate."

"Combat kissing." Elita shakes her head mirthfully. "Relax, love, she stopped picking on you once she realized you were taken."

Optimus just rumbles and holds the candy for Silvershot to taste.

He stares at Prime, then he looks towards Blackout, and then he scoots back deeper into the booth with his optics switching directions in a way that says, "Okay, I don't want to know."

His Sunrise gets another bite taken out of it as he tries to convince himself that he didn't just hear an Old Western Villian Entering a Bar motif.

Elita watches the group at the bar as Hormah hops up on it on her belly to help herself to something behind it, then turns back to Random and nods to his treat. "They're good, aren't they?"

Silvershot is starting to get heavy-lidded. Energy always does that to him. But his little mouth is still taste-tasting away, and Optimus has turned his optics down to watch him with a slightly wondering air.

"Ummhmmm," he nodds, mouth too full to get away with a more polite reply.

Hmm, 'Shot was active just a minute ago . . .

Elita smiles and has a bite of her own, but then frowns slightly as her optics go over toward Arcee's booth. "Hmm, excuse me."

"Hmmm?" Optimus shifts his gaze from sparklet to mate.

"I'll be back, I just want to go check on Arcee."

No, no, curiosity back! If there's a problem Elita will hear about it.

Despite winning over himself, he doesn't take another bite of Sunrise with quite as much vigor.
