bsBee: *is black*
Songstop: oO You... changed your colours?
bsBee: Yeah. Seemed like a good colour for a bad-luck bot.
Songstop: We're gonna need to steal more paint. *makes a note*
bsBee: *stares at the big monitor, then pounds the console with her fist to make the static clear up*
Songstop: *adding to a very long to-do list* Depending what you're trying to look at, it's either interference or jamming or you want to check the patch on the back.
bsBee: It's a loose connection in the console that I'm too stiff to reach. *thumps it again and the screen clears*
Songstop: *comes over and leans in to look* I'll put that on the list...
bsBee: It's really quick. I know how to fix it, and I can SEE the spot. I just can't reach it. *sighs and rubs one arm*
Songstop: Guess I might as well get it now, then. *puts the pad atop the console while he goes in to work*
bsBee: *watches him for a moment, then sets a 'cinnabread Seeker' on top of his pad and resumes playing her game on the big screen*
Songstop: *intent on patching it up, head full of jobs long neglected that have suddenly become urgent*
bsBee: *wins a level and saves the game, then turns her chair and pries herself out of it to limp across the bridge*
Songstop: *half looks around* You OK there?
bsBee: *distant and distracted* Yeah. Fine.
cookie: *smells goooood*
Songstop: *patches it and looks up at her* Hey, Bumblebee? Is something up?
bsBee: I'm good. *leaning on her cane and holding her arm as she stares right through the monitor that shows the outside*
Songstop: You seem kinda... distant. *putting his tools away and reaching for his pad, blinking as he finds the treat on top*
cinnabread Seeker: *crooked smile under its gummi optics*
bsBee: I'm good.
Songstop: *comes over to show her the Seeker* I... uh, thanks. How did you make this? *surprisingly impressed, considering it's Cynicbot*
bsBee: *blinks as the good smell recalls her, then looks at the cookie and moves her mouthplate in a grin* I didn't. I scrounged a handful of couch change in the Nexus and used it to buy a couple of those.
Songstop: O-oh... *holds it carefully as he scans it* I kinda forget you can get things from outside... *other than stealing. Stealing doesn't count.*
bsBee: I forget sometimes, too. *looks at the little treat absently* I ate the other one. It was good.
cinnaSeeker: *is calcien, and energon, and some minerals, and that gummi stuff in the optics*
Songstop: *almost reluctant to eat it and thereby mess it up* *kicks himself and nibbles at the edge, memorising the flavour to himself*
cinnaSeeker: *warm, spicy... darn near addictive in its goodness. Once referred to as 'TF crack'*
Songstop: *pauses after the first nibble or three to comment brightly* It's good, this...
