Jun 07, 2011 02:20

[Well -- someone managed to rig up a phone out in the garage. And sounds oddly subdued for someone who's made such an accomplishment.]

... I need some paint. Black. If you don't... mind.

[And with that, he hangs up.]

[ACTION][Housemates and anyone else interested in meeting face-to-face can find him in the garage at his place, curled up ( Read more... )

[There's an answering ping, and silence. He's there, but he doesn't know how to talk to you right now.]

[WELL FINE.]

[He's in the garage. Who knows how he managed to fit his long legs all the way in there, but that's where he is.]

[ He transforms on the street, and carefully pads up the driveway ] Sideswipe?

What's wrong?

[He's quiet for a long time. Too long. His shoulders pull up, and he shutters his optics.]

... They won.

[Again, a long silence.]

I just wanted to protect you. I didn't want anything to happen to you.

[He says it like he's expecting Jolt to just... walk away. And he wouldn't blame him if he did.]

I played their damned game. I did what they wanted me to! Because... I did it for you. But I...

[His voice breaks into static for a moment.]

Broke my promise.

[He can't even answer. He covers his head with an arm, curling in on himself.]

[The memory file is playing -- clear as if he was seeing it for the first time.]

Sideswipe... [ he reaches for him. He doesn't run. He stays, and he reaches for him. ]

[He doesn't move. Autobots can't really sob -- not like humans. But the sound he makes is pretty damn close.]

[And then he just starts apologizing. Like his vocal processor is stuck on a loop and he can't shut it off.]
