If my calculations are correct (which they are), then today is my birthday! Or creation day. However you wish to put it! I'm 7 now! I believe I was 5 when I got here. (My name is still 4 though, hee) What do you do to celebrate your birthday? Do you do anything special? Do Cybertronians even celebrate the date of their creation? Oh, do you think an organic can make me some cake? I can't eat it, but I'd sure like to see one! I hear that "chocolate" is favoured amongst humankind! :D

Boy...whereFOUR art thou, six and five?

Hehe, but all references you won't get aside, can you even eat cake?

No. That doesn't mean that I don't want cake though! It's the usual part of birthday celebrations isn't it?

Who am I to make fun of someone's Pinocchio syndrome? It's your party and you can cake if you want to.

Don't forget the guy leaping out, though.

[She likes you a lot Crow, but 80% of what you say confuses the heck out of her. It's like you're speaking code or something. There's really only one thing she can say to that.]

...What?

[Crow needs to expose this place to pop culture and fast.]

Well some people have like a guy hiding in their cake, which then they leap out and do a little dance!

I have never heard of such a thing! Why would they do that?

[Shockwave doesn't know jack diddly about cakes, birthdays, or chocolate.]

[He does know that he has a monster corpse to cut up from his trip with Megatron, and Four has been at his side often enough for him to send a message so she can see it for her creation date.]

I will be performing a dissection in an hour.

[Yep that's it. Happy birthday, Four!]

[Now, Four of a year ago might have found this proposition to be vaguely disturbing. Luckily for her, she's grown a lot in that time and the very idea of dissecting some unknown creature makes her excited. Especially since she gets to do it with Shockwave.]

Of those bladed creatures? I'll be there very shortly!

Hey, I actually just had my birthday recently! There was cake and presents and dancing...

Can you even eat cake? I can make you something but...well, if it's actual cake it won't last very long.

How about a replica?

I would really like to see someone dancing sometime. Anyway, no I can't eat. But still, I'd like to see one!

Because they're lonely on their birthday and it's a good way to get some cash.

But mostly to get the feeling of frosting all over.

Then it's settled! One mini doll-sized cake coming right up!

...I'll do my best, I mean.

[He's getting fragging sentimental in his old age or something.

[He knows what a "birthday" is . . . well . . . he knows enough, anyway. ~~Or at least, he thinks he does.~~ But still . . . what the frag is he doing in the Junkpile combing through trash...

[...looking for...something, he's not really sure yet what...

[...because, um...

[...yeah...

[...that's where he is now, after seeing Four's text.]

[Thundercracker comes into the room, glancing around for any sign of his diminutive roommate. On the one hand, he knows he should call her to see where she actually is . . . but on the other, he . . . well, wants to surprise her.]

Four?

Items I have seen:
Pizza, party favors, and
Mediocre dance.

I wish for nothing to experience this would Mean the world to me

You are very odd Crow. I consider myself to be a very intelligent person, yet everything you do and say baffles me.

You'll really do it?? You'll make me a cake??

[All this learning about birthdays has Four all excited. Learning in general gets her all excited, but this is something very special and very personal. Today, seven years ago, the Scientist gave a part of his soul to both her and Three. She realizes that today helps her appreciate him in ways she didn't before.

When Thundercracker enters the room, she smiles cheerfully at him from on top of the table. She likes it up here, it lets her see all around her, and they both don't have to worry about her being stepped on. Despite her post, she doesn't expect any presents. Four really enjoyed talking about it, and to her that's enough.]

I always thought celebrating birthdays was just something that organics did. Or at least that's the way it was in my world.

You know me, I'm like the wind, baby!

But uh happy...making day.

Tell you what--I promise I will!

And I always keep my promises.

Thank you Kay! I'll have to do something nice for you too!

Who made you by the way? You don't look like you were designed with any particular task in mind. At least, not a physical one. Was your personality naturally designed to be abrasive? Were you made to be a companion of sorts? What would you say your purpose was? Also, what is your power source?

I like keeping track of how old I am. The Scientist created me and my family while the world was at war. It's been a while since it died, but we're still here. So the day we were created is important.
