... It's a couch.

[video]

[ops_meister]

Well yeah, but we haven't had one for a few months.

[video]

[gditsideswipe]

Why? Prime too broke?

[video]

[ops_meister]

Nah, after the last one met with misfortune we just never got around to getting another one.

[Shrug.]

[ichooseboth]

[...Oh, but he is not sure if he should facepalm or laugh. He settles for a snort.]

It's fine, really. I should have gotten around to that myself a long while ago. Send me a copy of the receipt, and we can at least split the cost.

[And LOCKED to Jazz]

Hm. [Oh, he has a hunch about what this is over.] Understood. I'll be back at the apartment shortly, if you'd prefer to take this off the network.

[ops_meister]

Not a big deal, you pretty much furnished the rest of it.

[Like he's going to let you pay for half a couch. Silly Prime.]

[LOCKED TO PRIME]
That'd probably be for the best. I'll be here.

[locked to action?]

[ichooseboth]

[B-but he threw it out the window in the first place!]

Still... [Sigh.]

I'll be back in about a cycle.

[And in an hour or so, he's on his way back inside.]

[locked to action]

[ops_meister]

[He doesn't care. He's paying and if you keep insisting you're going to get a doctored receipt that's half the cost anyway.]

Sounds good.

[And he'll be on the couch reading a data-pad when you do show up.]

Hey Prime.

[greasemunkygal]

A couch, huh? [She grins.]

Impressive.

[ops_meister]

It's probably not the most impressive thing I've done.

[Wry chuckle.]

Still, after going without you really start to miss it.

[greasemunkygal]

I can totally see that. Kinda like going without a monkey wrench for an extended period of time. Not fun.

[ops_meister]

Sounds like a good analogy.

[He nods.]

[Voice]

[debt_to_pay]

... Glad you found one.

[Voice]

[ops_meister]

[There's a slight pause; he's still not sure what to think. Not without knowing all the details.]

Thanks.

[Voice]

[debt_to_pay]

Hope it wasn't too much trouble.

[So. Much. Awkward.]

[Voice]

[ops_meister]

[Awkward even Jazz can't easily smooth out.]

Not at all, I don't think Prime liked the other one anyway.

[For whatever reason. Don't ask Jazz. He doesn't know.]

[Video] ^.^;

[good_grrrl]

Wow! [Stormer's never seen giant robot living quarters in quite this focus, and thus is gawking a bit.]

I guess you have some big visitors there. I didn't know they made couches that big.

And that color. It...totally goes with the rest of your decor.

[Video] :D

[ops_meister]

[Chuckle]

Yup, most mechs I know are bigger than me. Plus, I live with Prime and he's one of the largest ones around anyway.

[He grins; they don't really have what he would call a 'decor', but he supposes that means it does match.]

Thanks.

[Video]

[good_grrrl]

Do you ever have human visitors? I imagine we might end up...well, like the change in human couches. [She looks through the camera curiously, wondering if giant robots know about the crumbs and change.]

I might have picked something brighter. [She laughs.] But, it's, like, a bachelor pad, right?

[Video]

[ops_meister]

...sort of? Prime was turned into a human awhile back. I don't think we've had any actual humans here but we've been around them quite a bit.

[Jazz gets it; they don't have much in the way of crumbs necessarily but he's certainly found things he's missing in the couch. It's probably universal.]

If you wanted to visit you wouldn't get lost underfoot, promise.

[Grin.]

Yeah, I suppose it is. We didn't need anything fancy. We don't usually have much in the way of furniture in our universe.
