8th Shot Fired [video]

[oneeyedterror]

[Look, it's everyone's favourite one eyed 12 year old girl who is actually a 4 million year old robot dude!

... and it looks like as he's talking to you all? Jetstream is braiding his hair, and it doesn't look like Whirl is stopping the digimon.]

Look, I kinda get that humans don't live too long and all that scrap. But you guys make up a lot of frikking reasons to have parties. And some of them are really silly, [Jetstream sort of tugs on his hair, which gets an ow.] no offense to like. Roze and her year party.

[Cause he likes Roze, but everyone else?]

Like "birthdays". Just have a frikking party because you want to, really.

[Another hair yank followed by another ow, and a huff.]

Or just think of something frikking better to celebrate.

[And then he adds, as almost like an after thought.]

Oh yeah and that annoying slagheap Misfire doesn't seem to be here anymore. Frikking pity, really.

For once I agree with you.

[Arcee, what the hell, where have you even been?]

[Video]

[oneeyedterror]

[Well... that's unexpected.]

With which part, Girlie?

[Video]

[robotfightclub]

[Really? We're doing Girlie again?]

You are really good at making me change my mind when it comes to talking to you.

[Video]

[oneeyedterror]

[>Implying Whirl even tries to remember that Arcee is called Arcee.]

You're avoiding the quest-- Ack. [Artfully timed tug of the hair from Jetstream, huzzah!]

[Video]

[robotfightclub]

[Thank you, Jetstream. You are a true hero.]

Parties. I don't get them. At least not ones thrown all the time.

You're just upset 'cause you don't have a birthday!

[justpretending]

[Okay, she's trying, she's. She's really trying, she. Sophia just.

No. She can't understand it. She blinks and stares and.]

Why do you sound like an old guy?

[Video]

[oneeyedterror]

[Nah, she's just really focused on making Whirl look pretty today, it's an uphill battle.]

Good to know I'm not the only one feeling like that about most of this scrap.

[Oh Sprocket, Whirl rolls his eye.]

Cause Cybertronians are forged, frikking idiot.

[oneeyedterror]

[Oh boy. a little human.

Dammit.]

Cause that's how my voice sounds.

[headup_stickontheice]

[Cam has never understood the deep-voiced little girl who swears a lot that he sees sometimes. But, uh. He might as well try?]

I mean, I'm not really too wild about parties all the time, but it's like... Celebrating a person. For birthdays. You're...honoring their life, it's not like a general party where you just...

...party.

[Articulate as shit.]

[oneeyedterror]

[Hey now, Whirl's voice isn't as deep as say... Optimus'.]

Still doesn't make much sense to me, especially the year thing. A year is frikking short.

A party to party makes more sense.

[justpretending]

But how come? You don't look too older than me.

[headup_stickontheice]

It's not that short to some people. And that's more like, hey, I survived another year, here's to the best of next one! [......He winces. Bad wording.]

Look, if I knew I wasn't gonna be pestered into going and my girlfriend wasn't playing, I wouldn't be headed to it. Already said, parties aren't my thing.

[oneeyedterror]

Cause, I'm not normally human, little gu--.

... Girl, thing.

[SMALL CHILD WHY. Enjoy hearing Jetstream giggle in the background at Whirl actually watching what he's saying.]

[oneeyedterror]

It's short when you're over four million years old, little guy. [Yes, he just called you "little guy" even though Cam is probably taller than Whirl right now.]

Hey, I'm going but just cause it's free food and drinks.

[justpretending]

Now Sophia looks a bit nervous.]

Then what are you?

[headup_stickontheice]

[...

Ohhhhh.]

So, you're a robot, huh? Or...something else...?

[oneeyedterror]

Cybertronian.

[No he's not going to explain, because he's a jerk. But thank goodness there is Jetstream around, even if she's not on screen.]

What that means is Miss Whirl is a giant robot that turned into a helicopter. Or at least that's what she's told people before.

[oneeyedterror]

Cybertronian, yeah.

[Oh good, someone who kinda got it without so many questions.

Whirl kind of likes you now, Cam.]

[justpretending]

[Sophia's a little confused, but she nods slowly and then starts to smile lightly.] Okay. That's a lot better than other stuff. We used to have toys, of robot-people. But you're not a toy, because you're walking and talking.

I like your eye-patch. Carl has one back home too, but it's on his other eye.

[headup_stickontheice]

Like some of the others here? Wow, didn't realize how many of you guys are wandering around.

[oneeyedterror]

[... What. People being nice to Whirl, even little ones, is not something he is used to.]

Yeah well.

The only reason I have it is cause I only have one eye... Wanna see?

[oneeyedterror]

Yeah, like Wheeljack and Optimus. [A shrug.] It's not like we frikking stand out too much here.

[justpretending]

[She gasps slowly.]

...Is it scary? Carl's only got one eye too, but I've never seen him without his bandages.

[headup_stickontheice]

You've got those glowy-eyes, right? At least, Ratchet, he did. And so does Optimus. Kinda hard to see sometimes... ...D'you have 'em? [He squints.] Well, it.

[oneeyedterror]

Maybe? I don't frikking check.

[He does, but it's hard to tell in a well lit room.]
