shitposting rave 4: (almost) anything goes

-unsure chirps-

 

He's aboard my ship, where I know th' top brass was reasonable, so I was speakin' with that assumption. But strange authority's hard t'trust. Your point's good, regardless.

That's tricky, but the embassy don't have the authority to deal with shipwide matters. Lacuna's employed under engineering, so she answers to Silverweave an' the captains. You did get an illegal order. The captains'll take that into account, I think, when this gets dealt with. I'd'a delayed as long as possible - made bureaucracy work for me - but that's a trick you pick up when you been around the block a bit.

Darlin', unless they put themselves under my care, I'm limited to sortin' out things that deal with shipwide or personal safety only. That's the only involuntary therapy I can do. I can't teach 'em about boundaries while I'm violating theirs, now can I?

 

I-... I just wanted to... Jus' wanted to make things safer... An' they threatened me n' Suns...
[Blaze looks genuinely miserable]

 

...look, I know you're not the one at fault. I dislike you for OTHER stuff.

 

He did. He very much did. Ask your big trinemate about 'house slaves' sometime when your tanks are empty if you want details, I don't much care to think on the specifics of my own... tenure, shall we call it.

In passing. [He smiles fondly, reaching out to trace the various projections of Thunders' helm-- though he's careful to avoid the big palps and fangs.] We were talking about how the Senate fell. Starscream and the Vosians take most of the credit, of course, given the Kaon Offensive, but there were still loose ends to chase.

 

...it sounds terrible. But you're doing a lot better now, right? And you've got your crew!

 

-Pocket has climbed up to nestle into Sun's chest again; he drapes over Sun's shoulder to stare at Hydrablaze- Yeah, an' you fragged up.

 

I didn't even-... We don't even know eachother!!!
[... this is actually said in Devisen, with pronouns indicating [Blaze & Suns] and [Lacuna & Stentato], treating them as inseperable units...]

 

Yeah but you keep calling me cursed.

 

Frag off...

 

-he sighs-
That's rough, kid. The captains'll take that into account too. I know it's hard t'believe, so I won't push it, but I c'n tell you two'a the captains, at least, won't stand fer threats. You can go to 'em, if this happens again. Anybody can. I got a feeling Cap Nichrome will make an announcement t' that effect, she finds out about this in the waking world.

 

Y-you are!!! That's- Your file says that and everything!!!!!

 

I'm an outlier.

 

I don't... I don't wanna- I'd rather this was just... dropped...
Suns already hates me enough...

 

I... know...?

 

[Sighs.]
I-... I don't hate you. Probably? Um. You're just... A jerk sometimes.

 

That doesn't have to be a bad thing. I just can't make noise. That's not the thing that makes me dangerous, an... I'm not bad luck.

 

-gently-
I'll stop talkin' to you bout it, but it's shipwide business now, so it's gonna have t'be addressed shipwide. Best prepare yourself for it now.

 

Look if you want someone cursed you've already got me and that's pretty indisputable so I dunno maybe get your helm out your aft and keep it in the family?
-the way he says family is significantly tainted with sarcasm-

 

...we don't get school. Just command programming and whatever we can pick up on our own. But I shouldn't have yelled.

[Soothe-sleepy-safe chirps; he waves a claw vaguely in Sprocket's direction.] <Come pile? Glow won't get mad, promise.> Senate's bad, right? Was. Why's Starscream the winner if Kaon led?
