[Thanks to Soundwave, Kay had returned back to her usual, bubbly self. The police force could take care of Overlord, she was sure of it. So it's better to try and UP those spirits instead of keeping everyone down. Just like Soundwave had done. And always wanting to make him proud, she started searching for any way to do so. And lo and behold, Gunmax's recent post just made Kay realize something important. Not that the police force was losing a member, oh no. But that Christmas was coming up!

And then she wondered...do robots celebrate Christmas? Maybe they were more fans of Hanukkah. She wasn't picky. Something festive was just the thing Cybertron needed. With lights of any kind. Lots of lights. And a party.]

Hey everyone!

[And there she is in Kagerou's nest, sitting with the notebook Trion's acolyte brought her, tapping her pen on her mouth.]

Christmas is coming up, isn't it? We should really do something. Something BIG! We could hang lights, make decorations...bake cookies...the works! But I'm wondering, do you guys even know what Christmas is? What do you robots celebrate? Do you guys have any holidays? Even the humans, because we're from different worlds, right?

So basically, for all you bots who might NOT be in the know, Christmas is a time of year where you get together and spend time with people you love! There's gift giving, decorations, lots of food, and snuggling up by warm fires and punching whoever takes your blanket! Oh and soup. Lots and lots of soup. Do you guys have any holidays that are like that? Because I'm thinking we could like...mesh them all together into one big party! I'll take notes on everything. I've already got a few Earth holidays that are around that time we could use...

So I'll provide the notebook, you provide me with the--

[She swings her arm]

--information!

So what do you think? It...it would be something Ms. Vandal could come home to.

[Okay, so maybe the Christmas thing wasn't the ONLY part she took from Gunmax's broadcast.]

[Pffffft. Wrex? Friends?]

There's few in the traverse who can be my equal. I'm not about to share them with a random human.

Well that's not very festive, Mr. Grump.

What if I'M your equal?

[Kay no.]

I never celebrated your Christmas, so you're right about that.

[Don't encourage him Kay.]

Ready to prove it?

[Look at that determination on Kay's face.]

We should save it for the bonfires, don'tcha think?

Watch out, or I'll steal your heart away!

[Challenge accepted, little human.]

Good luck getting both of them.

You'll see. The Yatagarasu never misses it's target.

So do you think you can do the bonfires?

Probably some fancy name that does nothing, like C-Sec.

You bet.

[He's a bonfire virtuoso.]

Wow! Thanks Mr...

uhmm...what was your name again?

Wrex. Of the clan Urdnot.

So is Yatagarasu your clan?

Well I guess you could say that!

My dad was the first Yatagarasu, and I inherited the title. We're Great Thieves.

Heh.

My father was clan leader. We didn't get along well.

Really? Did you not clean your room or something?

I wish. He laid out an ambush for my clan.

But...isn't he of the same clan?

My father and I had disagreements what direction our people should go.

...not sure why I'm telling a human runt this. Spent too much time off Tuchunka.
