[It's a very rare thing when Arcee gets so enthusiastic that she just needs to talk to everyone ever. The camera feed might be a little off what with how big she is compared to the D-Terminal and how awkward it is to hold it, but it's fairly easy to make out that this is in fact a giant robot. The way she sits against the apartment building so casually gives a pretty good scale of measurement.]

Please tell me I'm not the only one excited about all of this.

[Her blue eyes seem to glow brighter than they ever have before.]

I mean, it's about time this scrap pit got something right. Someone? Anyone? I'm surprised there isn't a parade.

A-Arcee, maybe you should give that to me! You know, before you crush it by accident or something!

[Solus is apparently panicking off screen. She never really thought about it much, but things are a lot harder when your partner is so large!]

Do you take everything literally?

[At least Arcee has the help of angels to hold the Terminal close enough for her. ...Angel Digimon, anyway. Solus has no problem hovering in place if it means it'd spare their D-Terminal of any harm.]

Only when it bugs you, girlie.

[That's fine and dandy, but Whirl ditched his digimon a while ago.]

You're not very big, you know.

[He managed to see the video and it's kind of tempting to find Arcee and talk bot to bot, since frick the Terminals.]

[Ah yes, here come the small comments. Although Arcee isn't aware that Whirl really is freakishly large, short jokes are nothing new.]

No, I didn't. Thanks for showing me the light. It's like everything's different now.

... Yeah, gimme a second short-stuff.

[click he's hung up, but that's because he's coming into town to find Arcee. Hope she doesn't look up because a space helicopter is coming her way.]

[She doesn't really have to look up, helicopters aren't known for being silent.

Arcee can only guess what's happening right now.]

Scrap.

[Well he can't actually land, so mid-air transformation and dropping in in all his 30+ feet glory and digigrade legs and claws.

And hey he's even making sure he doesn't hit her!]

Hello girlie.

[And he's squatting so she doesn't have to look up too much.]

[Goodness, Whirl being considerate.

Arcee's hands immediately go for her temples. Of course. Of course he's this big. Of course he has--]

One eye...

[A groan is soon to follow. At least that explains the eye patch, but she's never been a fan of the one-eyed bots. There's just something freaky about them...

She blames Shockwave.]

[Well that and he doesn't want to be bitched at by Optimus. Or Wheeljack. Or Ratchet. For breaking Arcee.

HE IS HAVING A HARD ENOUGH TIME NOT BREAKING THE CITY, ok?]

Yeah, that a problem or something?

[At least he has emotion to his voice? And he brings a claw up to lightly... poke Arcee.]

Keep making that face and the servos will get stuck like that, little gal.

[The swatting commences.]

Wow, you are really good at making me angry.

[Especially seeing as "being a robot" should have given her unlimited happiness.]

[He laughs at the swatting, bringing his claws up in a non-offensive manner.]

What are you going to do about it then? Other then swat at me.

[Although it's probably a good thing none of his weapons work, considering those guns mounted under his cockpit chest.]

[It's a shame Arcee doesn't realize her guns don't work. She could bring them out and threaten him, but she doubts he's the type to take her threats seriously. She's already mad enough, she doesn't need him laughing at her. ...More than he is right now.

Time for plan B.]

I'm telling Optimus.

[That lamp head tilts a bit curiously at her threat, he's stopped laughing but his actual spoken response to telling Optimus is pretty simple.]

And?

I'm not one of his Autobots.

[And he's leaning in close now, maybe being a bit creepy now yes?]

[It only causes her to lean in closer.]

Yeah, but I am. And he'll be all over your aft.

[Just going to stare, for much too long, with that single optic.]

... If I wanted to do something to you I would have done it by now, you know.

[Man he can tell she's pissed, it's so easy to tell. What with her having a face and all that.]

[Whirl should totally look into getting one again. Seriously, freaky.]

You already did enough to piss me off.

[Yeah no, this is the happiest he's been since he got here. Even more than when he found Maccadam's.]

And here I thought I did that just by existing near you.

Trust me, that's definitely a part of it.

[She never thought she could hate a fellow Autobot, but here we are.]

You know... Part of me is interested in knowing what the rest is, but I get the feeling you're not gonna tell me scrap.

[Whirl is good at being hated by other Autobots, he doesn't mind it either. It makes life fun!

As long as she doesn't try to kill him.]

[It's only a matter of time.]

Would you look at that, it can learn.

[...

And he's laughing again.]

Yeah, I guess the idea of you having a working processor is a joke.

[Why is this her life.]

Sorta like how you think you're an actual person and not a freak of nature, right?

[Hi, girl robots barely exist in his universe.]

Right. I'm the freak of nature.

[What do people have against girl robots?]

Well, if you're anything like the Arcee I know of?

She wasn't made naturally, is all I'm saying.

[Or it's more his universe has a fucked up origin for your counter-part Arcee.]

And neither is how I look, kid. [Claw snap, to make his point.]

That's the thing, I'm not like the Arcee you know off. I was Sparked just like everyone else.

[She vents a very long, hard sigh.]

With the way you go on, I'd really hate to end up on your Cybertron. Freak of nature, I can't believe this...
