[Video/voice post]

[raceme]

[The broadcast starts out playful enough, from the inside of Blurr's cab as he is driving home through the junkyard. The view looks backward, where some distance away a second object is trying to keep up.]

Hm? Someone thinks they can outrun me in a race? [Blurr sounds amused; he hasn’t had a proper race in some time.] All you _{had to do} was ask! Who is this?

[Except the object has disappeared.]

...not a race, Blurr...

[The voice sounds like Skids's voice, but not. Whatever it is, it causes Blurr to slow down for a moment in recognition.]

Ski--

[He's cut off as something slams into the side of his cab. The camera goes wild for a moment as first Blurr is bowled over and then starts to transform, metal scraping over metal while oddly alien noises howl and screech in the background. There's a brief flash of something blue and Skids-shaped, but there's also tentacles lashing and a sudden jolt in vision as Blurr starts to leaps out of the way and is snagged.]

Skids, whatareyou--!?

[Then, the video goes to static.]


[A moment later, it returns, some distance away from where it last cut out. The Skids-creature can be seen far off, and moving further away on some other quest.]

[The camera holds on this for a moment, before it is shakily swung around and the video goes black again. The sound is still on and Blurr’s shaky voice can be heard. The last time he asked for help using the comm. link Starscream tried to take advantage and kill him. Blurr’s not so inclined to ask for help right now, besides, there’s more pressing issues that need to be taken care off first.]

I r-require everyone’s attention. Something happened to Skids. I think he is..I…I’m not sure. He looked like that a creature he described to me once, a spark eater.

He’s dangerous.

[And that’s all he’s going to say for now, talking would be easier if the world stopped spinning]

[Locked to Saber/ video]

[The video goes on, this time to reveal the face of a human male with bright blue eyes, despite that the transmission clearly claims to still originate from Blurr.]

I think.

I think I'm going to need some help.

[ooc: All of Blurr's replies will come an hour later once he's at Vector's, fully dressed. Feel free to visit him :3]

[ Saber is so focused on using both of her hands on the pillow and bopping Blurr firmly, but not enough to hurt that she doesn't see the hand coming for her stomach-

His more masculine squeal is followed by a much louder and high pitched squeal as she drops her pillow. Going a dark red in the face, she laughs very briefly and then steps backwards quickly to get away from his tickling hand.

You've averted the crisis for now, Blurr. There's a very confused and embarrassed Saber standing in front of him, although there's a happy light in her eyes. Just..

Why had she.. screamed so? How embarrassing. ]

Oh.. I dropped my pillow. [ The knight looks down at it. ] I.. have lost. You're the victor. [ She smiles a bit sheepishly as she attempts to will her face to stop burning so.. ]

[raceme]

[Blurr could tell that it wasn't an angry scream, he's happy he was right about humans being ticklish.]

I think we can say we both won. [Blurr replies, voice low and playful.] You cornered me first and I used _...er...unusual tactics. UHm...are you okay? You are blushing.

[ It worries him slightly. did he make you angry? Blurr sits down, looking extenuated.] Being human is tiiiIIIIring.

[pendragon]

[ She looks at him with a surprised look for a moment, and then shakes her head as she raises her hand to her face. It looks like she's attempting to wipe the blush away. ]

It's so strange, I never thought I would be ticklish. [ She just feels awkward, and is definitely not mad. ]

You should sleep then, Blurr. You've had quite a day.

[ The knight picks up her pillow and then puts it on the pillow. In order for her to reach far enough, she has to raise herself onto her tip toes. She wouldn't be able to climb into the berth herself if she wanted to.

The thought made her look to him, and then look at him curiously. ]

..Do you think you can get up? [ It's not that high, but you'd still have to climb somewhat.. ]

[Video]

[raceme]

[True. Everyone should admire her nice frame. Blurr will try to be more subtle in the future.]

Oh..yeahhh...no. They break and can't be fixed most of the time. This body is so fragile.

[They try but they aren't always successful.]

I don't suggest talking to Megatronus.

[raceme]

I don't know what they have.

[Give him a moment, what does he has now that he didn't had before...?]

The nose?

[thxforthememories]

Ah...

No.

Humans have souls.

I'm talking to <sub>McCoy, he is a human medic. Thank you, though, McCrane.

[Sadly, it is.]</sub>

[raceme]

Strange is nto bad, isn't it? [Blurr thinks it makes you look cute, Saber. A lot of people gets angry when eh calls them that, so he keeps it to himself.]

I thought all humans _{were. It's an optional} feature?]

I feel fine. Just...what you humans call it?...sleepy? [He looks at the berth and smiles.] I can, don't worry. Can you reach? [He's assuming you are staying. ]

[pendragon]

It's not bad, no, just.. not what I was expecting. [ To be ticklish was to be.. human, she supposed. ] Some people are ticklish everywhere, and some only in certain spots. And some not at all.

[ An awkward pause. She looks at him curiously. Did she hear him right? ] ..I can reach, yes, but I wouldn't be able to climb up. I was simply asking in case you needed help to get into bed. Climbing down will not be a challenge..

[ Saber hasn't really registered that he simply believes she's going to stay. After all, why would he think that?

She realizes why he asked and then goes quiet as her cheeks flush softly. So, the question is.. ..Or rather, why would he not think that? It'd be convenient and it may not be such a large issue to Cybertronians. ]

Oh, no, I am fine. I don't need to stay in your room. I wouldn't want to invade on your privacy..

[raceme]

And how you figure out those spots? [He tilts his head and looks at saber with both curiosity and wonder.]

[He thinks that because he knows it's late and she has no means of transportation. Blurr's also used to share his room with others. He likes to spend times with friends.]

You wouldn't bother me at all, and it's dark outside. You helped me all day and you went to find me clothes and food and pillows...you need to rest too, you could stay.

[A second later it comes to Blurr's mind that perhaps she is uncomfortable with the idea.] Imeantifyouwant. You can refuse, of course.

[pendragon]

Well, you would figure them out with experimentation.. [ Saber hesitates, thinking about his offer. He's right and it is practical, and her room at Vector's is extremely foreign to her and entirely empty. Plus, she does want to watch over him in case he needs anything through his first night as a human.

She shakes her head once. ]

In my culture, sharing rooms was only done when you were very intimate with someone.. I know that now it is done between friends and can even be seen as a fun experience, but I simply haven't done it. So.. I would be honored if you would have me over for the night. [ She may as well try it, right? ]

Uhm, if you would.. [ Saber places her hands on the edge of the berth and then looks to him with a bit of red in her face. If he can just give her a boost, she would be able to scramble up. ] Just like at the dance, I suppose? [ A soft smile as she refers to the bar where he was sitting and he invited her. ]

[raceme]

Oh.

How does a soul look like?

[thxforthememories]

I don't know.

... I don't... have one. All I have are my memories.

[raceme]

With a trial and error technique? [This is how he understand experimentation, sorry Saber.

It's time for Blurr to blush at the mention of intimacy. He's not even sure why he's blushing, since he never had all that much intimacy with anybody. Only with Wheeljack, and that didn't end well.] Sorry I didn't know that. I would be honored if you accepted.

[He smiles softly and puts his arms on her waist, pushing her up gently.] Just like at the dance.

[pendragon]

Yes, trial and error. [ Ignoring the heat in her cheeks, as she wasn't expecting his hands to go to her waist, she edges up and over onto the berth.

She wonders what she was expecting, though. For Blurr to kneel down and she to step on his shoulder, maybe? Either way, she feels silly about being so awkward about all of this and decides to stop being immature. ]

Here. [ Sitting on her knees, she offers Blurr her two hands to pull him up. Yes, he said he could get up, but why have him strain himself when she's right there? ]

[raceme]

I will remember that. [And maybe tickle his humans friends form time to time. Lifting her that way seemed like the most comfortable option for both of them.

Blurr takes her hands with another smile and quickly pulls himself up with her help, sitting close to her.] Now we sleep?

[raceme]

If you don't know how a soul looks like _{how can you know} you don't have one?

[thxforthememories]

Because I'm only an AI. AIs... we don't have such things.

[raceme]

I still have to find Frenzy _{and Tarn} and figure otu what to do with Dead END and write some reports... [Not Blurr! He can't allow himself to rest much, it feels like he's being lazy.]

Yes, we don't............oh. [Sudden realization. Blurr makes a disgusted face.] That's gross. I think I'll pass on eating.

Someone made it for you?

[raceme]

And why not? You are alive too.

[pendragon]

Yes, now we sleep. [ As he gets onto the bed, she immediately moves backwards to the farther side of the laid out blankets. Blurr was right; it had gotten dark out. Saber hadn't really noticed. It was easy to notice now that it was darker in the room. ]

So, sleep well. And do not be afraid to wake me if something happens. [ Saber lifts the edge of the blankets and rustles into them, laying on her back after smoothing out her dress beneath the sheets. She was not the most comfortable to be sleeping in it, but it was't exactly terrible, either. ]

[raceme]

[Blurr is wondering again if Saber finds him disgusting. She always moves away from him when they're supposed to be close. But he has no right to question that after all she did for him, so Blurr just nodded and smiled. He gets comfortable under the blankets, as comfortable as he could get in a new body and with clothes on, and turns to face her.]

I will, _don't worry. [Blurr won't really bother her, not after all she did and after knowing that humans needs so many hours of sleep. But she doesn't have to know that.] Thank you a lot, Saber.

[Good luck on being subtle.]

Then it sounds like this whatever it is will suck.

[Understatement of the year.]

...Do I look like someone that wants to get scrapped? I don't want to talk to him even when I'm a bot.

[mccrane]

I am glad you're in contact with one. Humans have a lot of requirements that are different than mechanical ones.

Is there anything you need?

[thxforthememories]

Not like you are. And not like human beings.
