Jazz vented softy as the door slid closed behind them, turning to grab Prowl and hold him and Crystal close as he buried his face in Prowl's armor. "How did the others do it? It was all most too much."
Prowl shifted his hold on Crystal so he could wrap an arm around Jazz. "You were amazing, love. And no one expects to see us for a couple of orns, at least. Let's get her fed, and then get some recharge. You'll feel better."
The smaller mech snuggled against him, then pulled back and retrieved Crystal's dinner from his subspace, mixing the additives that Ratchet had given them in with the special energon. The energon swirled, changing colors from the additive. He eyed it for a moment as it took on an unnatural shade. "Are ya sure this is right?"
Prowl looked the mix over. "Same color as what they have been giving me to give her since she separated."
"Why is she getting special energon again?" Jazz grumbled. "They didn’t do that for 'Hope or Torque."
"Because both of them were complete carries." Prowl explained again, patiently, as he nudged his mate in the direction of their berth. "Fully integrated when they separated. Ratchet said it's just extra to give her a boost. There is nothing wrong with her love- she's perfect."
"Healthy." Jazz said, insisting to himself and offering a prayer to Primus.
"Very." Prowl pushed Jazz onto the berth and laid Crystal in the SIC's arms. He wrapped himself around Jazz so he could hold the sparkling cube in Crystal’s reach, smiling a little as she sucked greedily at the energon.
They rested in silence, Prowl setting the cube aside as the sparkling slowed and finally slipped into recharge, content. The Praxian smiled as he felt Jazz slipping into recharge as well, moving slowly as he took their creation from his mate’s arms, nuzzling at Jazz. "Let me put her to bed love."
"But…" Jazz protested sleepily, finally letting go so Prowl could lay her down in her small recharge berth. This way she was close to anxious creators and they were nearby if she needed something. Once she was settled Prowl returned to their berth, pushing his mate over and stretching out on the berth.
Jazz grunted in protest, trying to fight recharge and failing. "You promised…"
Prowl chuckled softly. "Later, after we've had some recharge. We have orns off, remember?"
"Nergh…"
The token protest made Prowl smile more, and send love and joy and contentment across their bond as he allowed himself to drop into recharge. Crystal would need attention soon enough, but for the moment all in their small world was right.
