re_alignment | [video] back-dated to a few days ago

[ooc: This takes place sometime during/after this]

[The video shows Starscream who is trying very hard to focus and most likely failing. He's in one of the Energon pools and looks rather inebriated. Probably because he is.]

If you have not come down here, you should because it is nice. Like nice things are nice. And everyone should experience nice things.

[He nods. And now for some private messages to a few people he thought was a good idea to contact at the time.]

[Private to Elita]

Did you know ... these pools are pink ... and you are pink. I thought you should know.

[Private to TFP!Wheeljack]

Heeey. Have you blown yourself up yet? Because you shouldn't do that.

[Private to Jetfire who is, yes, right beside him.]

Why didn't we do this before? I blame you.

[Private to Frenzy]]

Rumble, I'm sorry for punching you into a wall that one day. You're not so bad when you're not being annoying and stupid. Which isn't often, but sometimes you are okay. But not often. Usually you aren't.

[Private to Miko]

I don't like you.

[Yes, that's all he has to say.]

[Private to the Shockwaves. Yes both.]

Have either of you considered getting a second eye? That might solve your problem.

[Private to Wing]

You are far too happy. You should stop that. It makes it hard to hate you. And I really want to. But it's hard, when you're happy and annoying. And annoyingly happy. And happy. And I hate that.

[Starscream would look more imposing if he wasn't completely plastered.]

What was what? [The red medic gives him an innocent look.]

[That look has the large jet visibly... uncomfortable, though at Starscream's reaction Jetfire dragged a hand down his faceplates and then kept his optics on Starscream, though he did throw a quick glance at Knock Out.]

Was that... er, completely necessary..?

[Nevermind the faint static underlaying his words, or the slightly too-bright optics.]

[You know what? He's going to just march right up to Knock Out and yank him into the energon pool.]

You know what I'm talking about!

[Starscream moves too quickly and Knock Out's weaker than him in comparison, no matter how drunk Starscream might be. He sputters an indignant yelp and then growls at the other mech.]

You, son of a glitch!

[Let's not have a fight, protoforms. Jetfire lets out a static sigh as he stands up and takes the step necessary to get up beside Knock Out and Starscream, reaching out with both hands. One on Knock Out's shoulder - which basically means it covers a greater part of his side - and the other over Starscream's back and a few fingers curling about his wing.]

Calm down, both of you. I did... er, warn you, and a dip in the energon won't hurt you. [His glance goes from Knock Out to the Seeker, shaking his helm.] And Starscream, there was no reason for that.

He started it.

[Starscream can't do much expect glare at Knock Out. Was this going to end up being a fight in an energon pool? Maybe.]

[Knock Out glares back but after a second his expression changes to a much softer one. He maneuvers around Jetfire's hold so he can press himself against the flier's side, looking apologetic.]

You are right, excuse my language Jetfire.

[When he's sure Jetfire is not looking at him Knock Out glances over his shoulder and smirks at Starscream.

He regrets nothing.]

[He's not an idiot, and Knock Out getting up close and personal, so to speak doesn't really incline him towards believing the apology. He stiffens a bit, but doesn't necessarily move away.]

I know he did, Starscream, and if we could just be reasonable...

[Aaand he completely missed Knock Out's smirk because he just dragged a hand down his faceplates. A dangerous thing to do when Starscream's being angry and... ah, possessive, was probably the right phrase.]

[Oh no you didn't, Knock Out. Starscream just haphazardly lunges at Knock Out much like a rabid cat attempting to jump on someone's face.]

[SGHGSGASjha Oooops. He's going to hide behind Jetfire, thank you so much.]

What---

[Oh no you don't! Either of you. Jetfire's surprise quickly morphs into a frownas he ends up stumbling a bit to keep his balance with the two Decepticons dashing around him like he's some obstacle-course, the energon splashing around them.]

That's enough!

[He twisted and took a step to the side, both hands snapping out. One to grab Knock Out by the waist, the other to do the same to Starscream. Putting Knock Out on the floor again, Jetfire pulled Starscream close and kept him there</>.]

Thank you for that display. [So dry. And a bit of an arch look at both of them. Not that Knock Out hadn't been... er, hard to handle what with the flirting and Starscream's response in a way wasn't... flattering, but.]

[Starscream continues to glare at Knock Out despite being grabbed. Don't worry, you have to recharge sometime. He will get you then.]

[You will have to find where he recharges first, and he never went to his assigned room.

Once he's on his feet again Knock Out takes a few steps backwards, smirking.] You have a really feisty boyfriend, Jetfire.

[There's a slight huff from Jetfire and he tightens his grip on Starscream a bit, but admittedly he'd sort of like to let go.]

Don't make it worse, Knock Out. I have no idea how the Starscream of your reality would react [he hadn't talked much to the one from that universe when he was present after all] but this is not a good idea.

When he's not looking, I will find you!

[Starscream, rather awkwardly pointed a finger at Knock Out. Well, rather where he thought Knock Out was standing. It was getting hard to tell after awhile.]

[Knock Out stared at the empty space Starscream was pointing at and bit down a laugh.]

It's been a delightful night but I think I gotta go do...doctor things. Very important doctor things.

[Perhaps for the best, truly.]

Clearly. Perhaps next time he'll be up to having an actual conversation if you came over to discuss something.

[Jetfire made sure to tighten his grip a bit given that Knocj Out had laughed. You never knew.]

[Unfortunately, Starscream could not lunge forward at Knock Out given that Jetfire was holding him. He really wanted to though.]

[Knock Out blows Jetfire a Kiss, for no other reason that he can, and jumps backwards. Turning into his alt mode, he sprinted away.]

[Honestly, Knock Out... Jetfire stared for a brief moment, shook his helm and made sure to hold Starscream until the sound of Knock Out's engines started to become distant, at which point he let him go back into the pool again.]

Well. That was... ah, exciting.

[Starscream huffed in the direction Knock Out drove off into, but just sunk back down into the Energon pool after that.]

I am going to knock that red paint right off of him.

[Glancing at the now-empty room around them and then at Starscream, Jetfire just shook his helm.]

As long as you don't kill him.
