[Video]

[The video feed flickers on to the sight of a young boy seemingly passed out as his desk. Don't worry guys, he's still alive. As proof of this, he raises his head and blearily stares down at the data pad he has in front of him. A hand reaches out and roughly brushes the coffee mug and drags it closer to him. He makes the mistake of drinking some before making a face and spitting it back into the mug. Yuck, cold stale coffee is nasty.

Cody doesn't look too good. Actually, he looks like a kid who has been up for three days straight with nothing to sustain him but coffee and granola bars. Why would he do this and what could possibly be so important that he'd do this to himself? Well, part of it is because Prowl is a very curt and demanding boss. The other part is because Cody actually wants to impress him a little. Four days of constant and dedicated paperwork would do it right?

Ugh, he feels terrible. But luckily for him he's almost done.]

Just a little more.

[He mutters to himself before tiredly getting back to work.

About twenty seconds later his head droops again and hits the desk with a thud. No, no naps yet. C'mon Cody, keep going...]

Threaded | Flat

... You're probably going to die.

[Oh kid, that can't be healthy for you.]

Hey kiddo, you're not looking so good...

Graveyard shift, or what?

Sleep.

Now.

[Albert doesn't care, you're a kid, you shouldn't be working like this.]

Kiddo, if it ain't life-threatening, you need to take a rest. Right now.

What's that your drinking? [Points a talon at the discarded coffee.]

[Oh hi, look who walked by his desk!]

[He's also working on his own assignments, but he didn't really expect anyone else to be up at this hour. Cody's work ethic is certainly a pleasant surprise.]

Take a nap, your exhaustion will affect your work.

[Wow, that looks boring as hell.]

What the heck are you doing?

[Looks like someone else was up working until late. He didn't notice the little boy until he checked his link and saw the post. Blurr went to find him immediately.]

Cody?

What are you doing...?

... Am I hearing this right? You been on paperwork detail until you're passing out, because Prowl said to?

[Why yes, Ironhide can skim the network. He's not all punch, no processing.]

[Sometimes.]

You ain't looking good at all. Get some sleep or something.

[She's glaring a bit, puffing her cheeks out before letting out the breath.]

Before you get sick or something.
