✘ soul eater | death the kid

[Video]

[Perhaps you have wondered why there has been a lack of symmetry on your network lately (though probably not). It's hard to imagine that a god of death could completely fall off the radar while on an alien planet, but Kid has been pretty scarce.

The video feed shows him looking rather proud of himself, measuring tape in hand, standing in front of one of Alpha Trion's bookshelves. The books have been completely reorganized, their heights aligned in a way to make them completely identical on both sides.]

To show my appreciation Alpha Trion, I taken the time to organize the books in your library. They are now arranged to be completely symmetrical, much like the exquisite doors you showed me upon my arrival.

[That's right. He's been gone for... weeks, at least. And he's organized a single bookshelf.

In an entire library.

But it looks perfect, right?]

[If Kid is phased, he doesn't show it. He'd sensed the presence of another long before that point, but paid it little heed. There was organizing to be done.

But the Cybertronian had raised a valid point. It had taken him ages finding books that were identical in height just to sort it that way.]

They're organized by height and colour. If you know what the book looks like, it shouldn't be an issue.

I'm quite sure only Alpha Trion knows all the books and even then he might not have memorized its sizes.

[Blurr's not if Alpha Trion will appreciate having his books reorganized without his permission. However, he can tell the kid worked hard the project.] You did a good job.

[The comment had still deflated him a little, and he was looking at the books again. Had he made it even less organized than before?]

... I could update the catalogue with the new order, but...

[This wasn't good.

This was wrong. In trying to perfect it, he'd somehow made it worse, even if was aesthetically pleasing.]

[Oh boy, Blurr can tell the kid is feeling down now. His optics widen.]

No no no looks it's fine er...IF you really like to organize things you could give me a hand with the the pantry? It's filled with human food and I have trouble getting in some places because _{I'm too big}and it's not as organized as it should be because of that reason.

Y-You... You don't think it's horrible, then?

[There were other places in need of rescuing from their lack of organization?! Surely, this was why he had been brought to Cybertron!]

NononoNonono, of course not!

[Child, relax.

Blurr gives him a soft pat on the back. He's trying to be extra careful because he doesn't want to hurt him.] Why would _{I think} that? You worked really hard.

How could you not frown on my failed attempt to bring order to this? If anything, I've made it worse... The symmetrical beauty is offset by the imperfection of its disorder...
