( midsummer 'sounds good!' )
[The memory ends after that, and Penguinmon and Sonata are seen sitting in Sonata's room, Penguinmon shaking his head with an exasperated look on his face. Kids today.]
Did you seriously have to do that?
Fakes! Fakes! Grumbly was cheating.
their duet, suddenly the D-Terminals are graced with a view of the Matlin family's kitchen. Katie is on the other side of the kitchen counter, although she looks younger than Cam might remember, and she's mashing something up in a bowl. It's a banana, for anyone who might recognize it.
"Why do you do that?"
The voice is considerably younger than Maya's current one, but hers all the same, and comes from somewhere behind the camera. Katie doesn't look up when Maya asks the question, just continues her mashing.
"Because it's basically ice cream."
"We have ice cream." Maya sounds suspicious of her sister. "I don't get why you're doing all this extra work."
Shaking her head, Katie snorts. "Do you know how many calories are in ice cream? This is way healthier. You want some?"
Pushing the bowl toward Maya, Katie smiles. Maya reaches out for it, and takes it while Katie turns around and grabs another banana from the freezer. "You can have that. I'll just make more for me."]

We're back. [ With a lazy wave of her hand. ] Even though I still think he should have stayed on File Island with his newest fan club.
There are things that we are going to have to discuss with all of you in the coming days, [ For those of you who are more perceptive, her jaw clenches, her gaze finding something off screen. ] but for now, hero boy is sleeping, and I need someone to update me on what's been going on here.
Volunteers?
(The first video has extreme violence and death and the second blatant but non-explicit sexual themes.)
heard the sound of his own voice playing on the speaker.]
[It's wasn't entirely unexpected, but when he began to hear familiar words from Optimus - from a private conversation, he still began to attempt to turn it off. To say he quickly grew frustrated at the involuntary reveal would be an understatement. The communicator clacks to the surface of a book cart. His partner's voice pipes up:]
Uh - sir. Where are you going? You left your D-terminal!
[The memory continues to play from his point of view. It broadcasts a cave in, a lab built into the natural rock and stone, a fight with an unlikely partner, and the aftermath they barely survived.]
(skip to 12:50 ish for the scenes in question, unless you'd like to see the whole episode 8D; replies will be coming from his partner!)
[The fact that something was going awry began when his D-terminal flicked on of it's own accord, showing the empty storage area of the Library. Magnus stopped what he was doing when he

[These memories aren't broadcast far and wide. Maybe that's a blessing. Rather, they appear on the D-Terminals of Jinx, Kovu, Wheeljack, Ultra Magnus, Sora, Yu, Mami, and Waver.
( There was a failed SeeD candidate who attempted an assassination and ended up brainwashed and crazy to varying degrees. )
[ Seifer is frowning down at his D-Terminal. It wasn't so terrible. It could have been much, much worse; at least it isn't something that Squall doesn't remember, otherwise he'd be screwed. ]
At least I can say I was on the first live television broadcast in seventeen years. You can just disregard everything else since it wasn't even interesting, let alone important.
[ Although... it's weird seeing himself like this. He knew he'd made those decisions and acted like a lunatic, but was he really taken in by the sorceress, his matron, that quickly? ]

The feed soon switches to the familiar static, turning to what looks like a dimly lit, dusty cave of some sort with debris. The only source of light seems to be coming from the camera view. There's also a 15 year old human girl, and possibly another bot.
When it ends, the feed cuts back to Bulkhead in time to show his wide eyed, slightly anguished face. That wasn't a pleasant memory to be brought up for him.]
I didn't need that reminder.
[Is muttered painfully just before it cuts.]
((OOC: YouTube sucks so you get this site, but you can watch the whole torturous episode if you want. Relevant parts start at around 9:00 and keep going until 18:41. Of course only relevant parts feature Bulkhead, Miko, and eventually Starscream and Jack(briefly)))
