This is... almost surreal. It feels like I've been waiting for this day for most of my life, and now that it's finally here... I dunno what t'think

*Sari steps into the lounge, having left the medbay fairly early in order to get to the lounge on time and safely. She's wearing a royal blue sundress--that she found shoved at the back of a closet in one of the medbay's unused rooms--with her hair down. Around her neck and along the bottom of the dress are a string of bells tinted a shade of blue that match the dress. She makes a cheerful jingling noise whenever she walks.*
*She smiles as she takes in the decorations.* This place looks great. Where do you want me to wait?
Well hey there, pretty lady *crouches down to talk to Sari, smiling warmly* don't ya look lovely t'day... and ya sound lovely, too...
*gently strokes her hair with a finger* how've you been holdin' up in this crazy place? *he gestures to the upstairs* all made for you... got a pool table and dart board, lotsa games... make yourself at home.
*Walking is what he channels his nervous energy into now - something more productive than before - and it's because of that, he's able to see Sari go into a.. building. A quick glance at the map of the area told Optimus that this was something called 'The Lounge.' Interesting name.
It's mild curiosity that brings him to walk into the building after Sari (after all, she has a tendency to get where mechs don't want her), and he notices everything is.. decorated for something. Even Sari, now that he notices. And there's other mechs, too, one nearby, even. He just walked into something important. Slag.*
Ah, sorry if I'm intruding, but.. since I'm already here, do you mind if I ask what everything is decorated for?
OPTIMUS!!! *grinning with delight, she runs up and hugs his foot, careful not to muss the dress or knock off any bells.* I was starting to get worried about you. Where have you been?
And haven't you heard? Tonight's Prowl and Jazz's bonding! Um, the other Prowl and Jazz that I met here, not ours.
*Smiles as Sari comes running, crouching down to speak to her.*
Be careful. I don't want you ruining your pretty dress. I've been.. walking, actually. A lot. I'm sure if I were a human, I'd be pretty fit by now.
*Glances up at the other mech.*
No, actually, I didn't hear about a bonding. The party the other week, well.. Do you think they'll mind if I hang around? I've never actually seen a bonding ceremony before.
*passes in time to hear the last line spoken to Sari and pauses to take in the new mech... from the build and colors he assumes this is the Optimus from Sari's verse*
Nope, we don't mind at all... stick around, half fun *dashes off to find Prowl*
Don't worry; I won't. And why have you been walking? Our medbay not good enough for you? *her tone is teasing*
Yeah, the party was totally for their engagement or whatever they call it. Um, I don't think they'll mind too much, but we should probably ask. *looks around for Jazz*
Yep, that was him. He's great. This is his place. *waves hand at the lounge* We've been working on it for a while. I'm the morale booster. *grins hugely*
We probably better go get a seat, though. They'll be starting soon. *looks at him with puppy eyes* Pick me up? I don't want to rip my dress with my jetpack.
You'll be the first one I tell... Sadly I gotta scoot for a bit, more guests comin' in... You'll be fine upstairs though, s'got a good view of everythin'
And hey... *touches her cheek* if things get too weird, y'know here's always open to ya.

Hey, Jazz!

*Looks up in time to hear a mech tell him to stick around before dashing off to.. find something? Optimus blinked before looking back down at Sari*
That was one of the Jazzes? The one getting bonded?

Morale booster indeed.
*Quirks an optic ridge at her puppy eyes, offering his hands so she can climb up.*

Ah.. alright.
*Walks towards the front, settling just shy of being too much in the front.*
Is this far enough?

*happily settles in to watch the ceremony*

I'm doing okay. Things're still weird at home, but I'm okay. *leans into his finger the slightest bit*
Ooo! Games! Perfect way to pass the time. Just let me know when everyone's ready; I don't want to miss a thing.

Thanks. It's good to know. I may have to take you up on that sometime.
