[Video/Solus Prime's Temple]

[neverputincharge]

[Oh hey Haven, hope you're all having a good day. There's one trio of road workers that definitely are.

When the video clicks on, it shows Bulkhead's face. From the background it looks like he's standing near the entrance to Solus Primes temple. He looks happy, cause right now he's got reason to be.]

Hey, just wanted to give ya an update on the road. Though some might have seen it already. But for anybody travelin' between Nexus and Solus' temples, you'll be happy to know ya now got a road to travel on. [The camera pans around to indeed show the strip of smooth road, curing off into the distance.] It's got a name to it too, Bulkhead Boulevard. [There's hesitation and a grimace at the road name. Skids, how did he ever let you convince him to name it after him? By the look of it, he might be thinking of trying to still get it changed.

But his face brightens again as he keeps going]

And more good news. [The camera pans down to show his feet, and him standing...on the same concrete as the rest of the road. He lifts a foot to stomp on it a couple times, before he brings the camera back up his face.] It's dry, and if it can hold my big backside, ya know I ain't lying.

[He chuckles to himself, before speaking up again.]

Me, Skids and Fracas are gonna take a few days for R&R before we start our next sections. Namely, we're gonna make roads that connect the Hub to both Nexus' and Solus' temples. [And now the camera will show the familiar road flags heading off into the distance, off towards the Hub's direction for those that know the location.]

Anyway, [And back to his face one more time. Are you tired of seeing it yet?] As usual, please don't mess with the flags, leave them where they are. If you find issues with the road, let us know and we'll fix it. And enjoy...Bulkhead Boulevard, there's a lot more to come.

[With one last nod, he turns the connection off.]

Big backside and a big head to go with it?

[Actually, no, he's just teasing - he caught that grimacing hesitation. He's just highly amused. And hey, poke at an Autobot? Even if it really is pretty much only in jest. He's hardly going to turn down the chance.]

I take it the name wasn't your idea, Autobot...?

[Video | Locked] I love you. xD Ack, this took so long. /hides.

[neverputincharge]

[Oh Bulk knows about teasing. Both giving and getting it. It's all in good humor, nothing wrong with that.]

My backside's still bigger. Workin' on the head part.

[He taps the side of his helm with a chuckle. Nice to see you too, Thundercracker. You're pretty good for being a con, you definitely got some respect from him after your help in the Tarn fight.

He sobers a little at the name of name of the road, frowning a little.]

Nah. It was Skids' idea, and he insisted. [He shrugs.] I wanted it named after Fracas, cause the roads were his idea to start with.

[Video | Locked] XD;;; And no worries! - I'm a slow-ass tagger myself, so...

[notyourblueangel]

[Oh, he wouldn't have missed that fight for anything.]

Skids, huh? Heh . . . so let him name the next one after Fracas, then you and Fracas come up with something good for Road-Number-Three . . . just for Skids.

[Yeah, 'Con can still have a mean streak. Never mind the fact that he spent WAY TOO DAMNED MANY VORNS with a prankster for a wingmate.]

[redshirtrobot]

C'mon, the name's great. Now we just need to put up signs with it, huh?

[Fracas is mostly teasing. Maybe.]

We've done pretty well for it just being the three of us. I'm kinda proud of it. And no one's gotten stuck yet, either.

[neverputincharge]

I still think it shoulda been named after you. The roads were your idea.

[Roads you don't even get to enjoy now. Oh the irony.]

Yeah, we have. Still kinda amazing we got this done in a little under a month. Considerin' the distance. [Heck, they did a few miles in less than a week.]

Well, bet's still goin'. Just don't have to sing yet.

[redshirtrobot]

Well, Skids is the one on the committee. Maybe he'll name some other part after me... though it'd be strange to name a road after a jet.

[He could always walk. Or like... skate. Totally works!]

Yeah. It was a long way. Still a long way to go, but we're getting there. We've done really well so far.

Yet. We'll have to see how it goes when we get the next section up. After our vacation.

[neverputincharge]

Well hey, you didn't start out a jet. But Maybe we oughtta see about naming other sections after other people. Like the Forged.

[He's sure they wouldn't mind. In fact Solus and Nexus might be annoyed that this section wasn't named after one of them for all he knows.]

Yeup, about a section a month or so, won't take us too long.

Still plenty of chances for people to get stuck, yeah. Picked out a song to sing yet?

[redshirtrobot]

Yeah. That'd be nice for them, after all. Hm. Maybe the roads that lead to the Hub? It'd be like... symbolic of everyone coming together as a community, or something.

[Fracas is bad at this but he's trying. And if Solus and Nexus are annoyed, then they have the perfect excuse for why they're waiting to name sections after them.]

And then getting around will be easier on everyone's tires. I don't know why we didn't figure out we should do this sooner.

I uh. Have a few I'm considering. Skids said if he loses I get to pick the one he sings, too, so I have to come up with something really good.

[deadlydoctor]

Ahhhhh~Finally! Took you guys long enough. I'm glad to see that we now have a proper ro....

[deadlydoctor]

Bulkhead Boulevard? For real? [Bulk, seriously, you expect him not to laugh at that?]

[neverputincharge]

Hey, only took us a little less than a month. Not that long.

[Once they got going anyway. The laughter makes him shakes his head. Oyyy.]

Not my idea. But the guys I worked with have been insistent.

[videooooo]

[primest]

Bulkhead Bou-

[he doesn't even finish the second word before snorting quite immaturely and bursting into laughter]

[enjoy twenty straight seconds of sentinel laughing his ass off with his face buried in his servos]

[videooooo]

[neverputincharge]

[Oyyyyy, you just get a facepalm Sentinel]

Are you done yet?

Re: [videooooo]

[primest]

[SCORE]

Yeah, I'm- yeah. [snrt]

You got any other world class names planned for the other roads?

[it miiight be clear he is having a hard time not bursting into laughter again]

[videooooo]

[neverputincharge]

[He just shakes his head at you, Sentinel. Remind him to laugh at you if you ever get something named after you here.]

Dunno yet. Might name some after the Forged too. [He lowers his hand to shrug.] We'll see when we get there.

[raceme]

[Someone looks really happy here.] Oh finallywehaveROADSthatssogreat.

[neverputincharge]

[Whoa, Blurr. Slow down man. Give him a minute to try and figure out the rushed words, though he can get the gist of it.]

Uh...yeah, and more roads to come too. Glad you're excited.

[raceme]

[No!Gottagofast He's trying, he's trying...]

YesIam!..*ejem*...well, roads are nice. Let me know if you need help with anything.

Where are you going to build the next one?

[neverputincharge]

[He's gotten used to you talking fast and having to translate it. But that time was a little too fast.]

Yeah, it'll be nice to drive around without messing up tires.

The next bit of road? Well, as I said we plan to build to the Hub from here. Then from the Hub to Nexus' temple. After that? Start from either Nexus or Solus' and build to the next temple.

[not here but]

[rednotbluethx]

[PLEASE DON'T MESS WITH THE FLAGS, YOU SAY....]

[not here but]

[neverputincharge]

[Freeeeennnnzzzzyyyyy, nooooo.]

[adamndoctor]

Good! Once there's roads, there's less likely a chance one of you guys may accidentally run down one of us.

[neverputincharge]

Everyone's allowed to use them. [He tilts his head in confusion. These were meant for everybody, not just Cybertronians.]

Don't you and other organics like not having to walk on rocks all the time?

[adamndoctor]

[He smirks] We usually have sidewalks, not roads. It'll just make things easier moving about knowing people'll following roads and not just going gung-ho trailbreaking over everything.

[neverputincharge]

Oh...right, sidewalks. [Right, those raised platforms humans and their...pets walk on all the time.] Uh, yeah. Didn't think about those. [Cause on Cybertron, what are sidewalks? Everybody just walks on the road. Or, well, at least to the side of it.]

Yeah, I hope it can be at least a little more safe for ya. The roads still got a long way to go, but we'll get there.
