[Aara has been watching Ironhide of late. If she sees him from a window in the keep, she watches him until he leaves her area of sight. If she's outside, and notes he isn't too far away, she'll casually walk to a higher vantage point and watch him sneakily from above.

[Ironhide has utterly no interest in this Halloween business. It's stupid, for one thing. And, for another, there's too many memories -- good, bad, awkward -- associated with the supposed "holiday".]

[Where is the big Autobot?]

[She was startled when he called out to her, and she jumped. Sucking in a breath, Aara stood from her hiding place and stepped forward. She stared for a moment, not saying a word. Then, finally:]

True. When one is facing something they fear, flight is primarily their first response.

[So why was Aara no longer avoiding him? She took a step closer, then tilted her head in incomprehension. Kill him? No. She did not wish to kill him. But...]

You were not affected by the sickness. You did not... rampage and cause harm to your friends. To innocents here. What if something similar happens again, and you are affected by it. Harm people you have no wish to harm?

How would you... how would we...

[How would they defend themselves? Against the likes of him?]
