Why would I want to go anywhere else?

*The bright morning, with only a hint of rain on the horizon woke Prowl early and he busied himself about the Dojo first, giving it a little clean and preparing some tea once he was satisfied it was all done. Making his way outside he smiles at a little bird bouncing over the rocks of the garden, looking for its early morning worm. Fascinated as

Jazz had woken at the same time as Prowl, and while the other ninja tended to their home and their newest resident, the Guardsmech had made a quick run to the warehouse to see if he could find a few things to make living at the Dojo more comfortable for a little girl.

One relatively successful trip later, the white mech was driving back up the path to the Dojo, a cheery tune playing from his systems.

[wicked3659]

*upon hearing the music drifting through the Dojo, Prowl grins and peers out of the living area to welcome his bonded back*

Did you have a good trip, love?

[ante_luce]

"It was pretty fruitful."

He smiled, leaving his cargo on the floor of the Dojo and heading towards his bonded to wrap him in a quick hug and steal a playful kiss.

"Managed to scrounge up what looks like an old portable generator. It should give us enough power for what we want once I get it running."

[wicked3659]

*laughs lightly and embraces his mech tightly, happily kissing back with a soft purr*

That's a good find. I was worried that we'd have to light a fire or something to have enough heat for Sari in the winter, this would be perfect. *headtilts* Are you good with electrics? Because I have to admit... it's something I'm fairly useless at beyond the basics.

[ante_luce]

"I know a few things. Mostly related to ship wiring, but we're not doing anything complicated here anyway so I'm hoping it'll be straightforward enough to adapt."

Jazz shrugged lightly, giving his mech a gentle squeeze.

"Now we just gotta figure out where to stash the thing."

[wicked3659]

*nods and glances about the dojo*

Does it have to be any where in particular? Because there's space in that little room beside the dojo hall. The first-aid room?

*steals a chaste kiss from his mech before extricating himself and ducking into the living area, calling out to his mech*

Would you like some tea, while we think about it?

[ante_luce]

"Somewhere under shelter and easy to get to, I'm not clambering up on the roof just to refuel the thing. The first aid room could work, d'you think we've got room to manoeuvre in there with the generator though?"

He replied, trailing after Prowl into the living area.

"Tea would be nice, yes."

[wicked3659]

*nods with a thoughtful hum, handing Jazz a cube of warm tea, while sipping his own*

I think so, might need to reposition the first-aid mat, but I can't see it being an issue, the room has barely been used and if any injuries do occur in the dojo, the dojo is big enough to treat them should the need arise

*sidles closer to his mech, reaching out to lightly stroke his cheek* besides would prefer you not to have to clamber onto the roof to refuel it, especially when winter comes

[ante_luce]

"Alright. So we convert the room into a generator room."

Smiling, Jazz curled an arm about his mech, leaning into his warmth, turning to nuzzle at Prowl's hand affectionately before sipping at his tea.

"I found a couple of spools of wire too. And some plastic tubing so we don't have wires lying all over the place. Which rooms should get power, you reckon?"

[wicked3659]

*purring affectionately he leans into his bonded and hums thoughtfully, glancing about their home*

Well the living area and kitchen seems the most viable and necessary place and perhaps Sari's room for light when the days get darker... I'm not sure we'll need it in our room, but possibly in the bathroom, what do you think?

[ante_luce]

"All those places sound logical. Our room could probably use a light and an outlet, since we're running the wires anyway. And I know we have those lamps, but do you want to put lights in the main room of the Dojo, just in case?"

He murmured quietly, gesturing to the larger room with the hand holding onto the cube of tea.

"Keeping it completely lit would use up fuel a lot faster than all the other rooms combined, but it's not like we'd be using the training floor a lot at night. I know your piano probably needs to be plugged in too. There was a power cable stowed underneath it when Swoop and I moved it here."

[wicked3659]

Mm *headtilts thoughtfully* might be an idea to have a bit of light in the main dojo for when it gets really dark in winter. Like you say we probably wouldn't use it much at night so for the just in case it's a good idea.

*smiles at his mech*

Having the piano plugged in definitely a preference for me, though I do hope it doesn't use up too much fuel

[ante_luce]

"Mm, I don't think the piano would use up massive amounts of power."

Jazz smiled back at his bonded.

"I do want to make another trip eventually though. The generator didn't come with batteries, so we could be generating more power than we use and wasting it. A means of storing any extra juice would be prudent."

[wicked3659]

*nods in agreement and gently kisses Jazz's cheek before extricating himself and settling on the nearby sofa, comfortably sipping his tea*

I believe Sari wishes to get for some things from the warehouse, might be worth seeing if she wants a trip when you next go.

[ante_luce]

Following the other mech, Jazz sat down next to Prowl to finish his tea, curling up on the sofa with his cube, content to spend the moment with his bonded.

"Sure thing. I'll check in with her the next time I go."

[wicked3659]

*smiles at his bondmate, finishing his tea in comfortable silence beside him. Placing his cube to one side once empty he steals a chaste kiss of his mech's cheek*

I'll go and start clearing the first-aid room for the generator

*gets to his feet, collecting his cube to wash it before heading into the main dojo*
