audio; 4/6 late night / early morning ish

[It's probably around midnight or so when the post pops up. Or close enough to it that the effects of the red energon have finally worn off. He can touch things now. He's no longer a ghost.]

[And... still considerably unsettled and upset by recent events. Enough to make the following statement:]

I ... I want to learn how to be drunk.

[Because that seems like a great idea. It always worked for his role models around here, after all.]

Someone. Show me how. I'll be grateful.

[And that's all he says. He'll be at the bar, an unhappy pile of metal and wings. Waiting.]

[ a shrug! ]

What not to understand?

[He presses his face firmly into the tabletop.]

[And shrugs.]

I just don't.

[ just going to affectionately stroke the bird and offer comfort. ]

[Oh. Pettings. He can deal with those. That's actually quite nice.]

[ oh good. that means Starscream can stop. ]

There, there. Just let it all out.

[He makes a muffled little sound.]

I can't.

I can't cry.

But you can shout and whine.

Those are things for... not grown up robots.

We are drinking. Those rules don't matter now.

No.

I need to grow up.

Grow up, Kagebird. That's what I have to do.

Growing up is overrated.

No.

I need to.

If you say so, Kagebird.

... Huh?

Why are you calling me that?

You called yourself that.

No, he did.

Who did?

The buttfuck.

That's not very nice...

It's true.

How?

[ where do you kids even learn these words. ]

How what...?

How is it true?

It just is.
