[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.]

I am familiar with Christmas. I can't offer insight to any other cultures' holidays, however.. if you are planning, I'll volunteer to help with decorations.

[ Never mind the fact she's short and can't reach the top of the tree or any ceilings. Saber definitely can't offer to bake or cook. ]

I also recommend the Rec Center as the location. It's near the junk pile, and would be in equal range for most.

[Can you see those eyes glittering from over there, Saber? They're practically Christmas lights themselves.]

Oh the Rec Center's a great place! Everyone knows about it too so no one could get lost!

[She'll just make a note of that.]

And decorations would be great! We'll have to scour the junkpile for some lights...unless anyone has some lying around...

Oh! I'm Kay, by the way!

[Introductions are important!]

[ Yes, Saber agrees, introductions are important! ]

I'm called Saber. Pleasure to meet you.

[ Kay's enthusiasm is.. influential. And with now volunteering for two groups and all of the recent events, something more relaxing and cheerful like Christmas is a good diversion. Saber may as well use her time wisely and for the benefits of others if possible. ]

I am close to the junk pile often. I will search for items we can use as decorations. I can help with organizing if you would like.

[ Saber volunteers her assistance if needed, but the girl seems pretty excited to do the planning, and thus Saber won't step on any toes. Besides, planning can be time consuming. ]

You humans start bonfires and fight?

[Consider Wrex interested.]

I could get behind that.

[Her eyes widen. Is that what...giant...space lizards do?]

Is that how you show your love?

[Relaxation always equals more efficient people, right? And actually, it'd be nice to have some help in planning. She may have a notebook, but she's still only 17, and thus, some things aren't QUITE as organized as she'd like to believe.]

Oh wow, you'd do that?

[She flips to a new page, drawing up a chart.]

How about if I put you on decoration duty?

Let's say this: a krogan shows his worth by the number of enemies he has.

Well that's kinda funny! What about your friends?

I would be honored. Assign me to whatever you wish, and I will do it.

[ Decoration duty.. so, it would be best if she started asking for more help if others would want to join or volunteer. ]

Recruiting help for decorations will be my first task, then.

As long as it's something sparkly and festive, the world is your oyster! Yours for the taking! Reach the stars!

[She gives a slight giggle, leaning over her notebook a bit.]

Yeah, maybe someone REALLY tall to help with the lights so you don't have to...stand on a roof or something.

I like the way you think with this Christmas thing, kid.

I got a super secret plan to share with you, I think.

Someone really tall..

[ Yes, that'd be needed, and not just because she is short. The Rec Center is very tall. She'll definitely need some Cybertronian help. ]

I will try my best for sparkling and festive. Let me know if there's anything else that comes up. I will be in touch.

[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.

Mr. Gunmax!

Well, it was your idea, really. Kinda. You inspired it!

Lay it on me!

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?

Great! This is going to be the best party ever, I can feel it!

And it was nice to meet you Ms. Saber!

Nice to know I'm some kind of inspiration. Heh.

Well, here's the deal: I want to make sure almost everyone gets something for Christmas. A card or ... I dunno, something. It's not like Santa can come all the way to Cybertron, right?

You think you can help me out?

[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!

!!

[Gunmax are you some secret Santa helper?]

You bet! Just tell me what to do, Chief!

[NO HE'S JUST AMERICAN]

Sounds good. I need you to start working on Christmas cards, pronto!

[Challenge accepted, little human.]

Good luck getting both of them.

I don't know anything about this. You can do what you like with our place.

I'll help you with what I can... But I may be busy for a while.

[CLOSE ENOUGH.]

Christmas cards! Got it!

Think we could pull off some presents? Like candy?

I'm afraid I can't really help out, but I do think Vandal would appreciate the effort.

[LOOK HE'S TRYING TO BE HOPEFUL AND STUFF]
