(Radio) Ghost transmits, "What is it going to take for me to get you to sit on or delete everything you've overheard." to Soundwave.
(Radio) Soundwave sends Ghost a radio transmission, ' Delete is impossible. Sit on is possible.'
(Radio) Soundwave sends Ghost a radio transmission, ' There is no reason to share..anything.'
(Radio) Ghost transmits, "Well. What is going to be the cost of your silence?" to Soundwave.
(Radio) Soundwave sends Ghost a radio transmission, ' depends. what do you have to offer?'
(Radio) Ghost transmits, "I've spent over 4 million years 'tidying' up after him and his loose ends. Do you want to become one?" to Soundwave.
(Radio) Soundwave sends Ghost a radio transmission, ' You and I both. Is that a threat?'
(Radio) Ghost transmits, "Statement of fact." to Soundwave.
(Radio) Soundwave sends Ghost a radio transmission, ' then come for me if you want. I wasn't the only one who heard. Though I might have been the only one listening.'
(Radio) Ghost transmits, "We both know that I have nothing in hand for any immediate exchanges. Hence asking what the cost will be. I'm in no temper to barter, Soundwave." to Soundwave.
(Radio) Soundwave sends Ghost a radio transmission, ' Perhaps I should just hold on to this bargaining chip.'
(Radio) Soundwave sends Ghost a radio transmission, ' or perhaps I can call in my..payment at a later time.'
(Radio) Ghost transmits, "No. I want this slate clear." to Soundwave.
(Radio) Soundwave sends Ghost a radio transmission, ' Then you will find me something that interests me.To keep my silence, at least. To wipe the slate...I do not trade in weapons, power or shanix. You know what I want.'
(Radio) Ghost transmits, "Intel then." to Soundwave.
(Radio) Soundwave sends Ghost a radio transmission, ' the grandest of rewards.'
(Radio) Ghost transmits, "... No. No deal. What intel I have that even comes close is not worth the additional betrayal." to Soundwave.
(Radio) Soundwave sends Ghost a radio transmission, ' Soundwave does not plan betrayal. You and I are loyal to the same things.'
(Radio) Ghost transmits, "Megatron can deal with his own trash from here on out." to Soundwave.
(Radio) Soundwave sends Ghost a radio transmission, ' the Cause above all else.'
(Radio) Soundwave sends Ghost a radio transmission, ' Defecting?'
(Radio) Ghost transmits, "*bark of a laugh* Hardly. That'd sign my death warrant as much as any other disaster of a decision done under duress." to Soundwave.
(Radio) Soundwave sends Ghost a radio transmission, ' Soundwave does not intend to share information gathered. However it is curious.'
(Radio) Ghost transmits, "Well, you having this information does have me by the wingtips, Soundwave. What's curious about it?" to Soundwave.
(Radio) Soundwave sends Ghost a radio transmission, ' why it is such a secret. Why it became a secret in the first place. How this all works out.'
(Radio) Ghost transmits, "Nepotism? Some idiot trying to off me thinking his royal nibs would actually give a damn? Having every optic in the empire and beyond track what I do thinking I know what's in his rotten little cortex? Really puts a damper on my entire work capabilities, wouldn't you think?" to Soundwave.
Banshee just quietly meditates with Trypticon, trying to work out the best path for the Titan
Ghost's in the core, mostly. Relaying private communications through her cold-storage chassis.
(Radio) Soundwave sends Ghost a radio transmission, ' Understandable. Your secret is safe here. Until it is mentioned again. It will be 'forgotten' soon enough. Currently, Soundwave has a lot to think about.'
(Radio) Ghost transmits, "As safe as anything is, I suppose." to Soundwave.
(Radio) Ghost transmits, "Ah.. some actual imperial business, Razorclaw will be reaching out to you to discuss comm and data security and relays through satellites for an action plan he and Cyclonus have discussed concerning Kalis." to Soundwave.
(Radio) Soundwave sends Ghost a radio transmission, ' Soundwave will be available.'
(Radio) Ghost transmits, "The empire must move on." to Soundwave.
(Radio) Soundwave sends Ghost a radio transmission, ' indeed. What is the plan?'
(Radio) Ghost transmits, "What? And Ruin Cyclonus' and Razorclaws moment?" to Soundwave.
(Radio) Soundwave sends Ghost a radio transmission, ' (long silence)'
(Radio) Soundwave sends Ghost a radio transmission, ' That's how it is then.'
(Radio) Soundwave sends Ghost a radio transmission, ' Soundwave awaits them.'
(Radio) Ghost transmits, "In any case, you knowing ahead of time does put you into a better position. Creating a small, centralized outpost station to maintain the border in the area and act as a comm-data relay. A secondary posting in the city proper with the understanding that due to the cities historical value to the Autobots, their attention will be directed thus." to Soundwave.
(Radio) Ghost transmits, "You know I far prefer to deal in truths, Soundwave, I was reviewing the recording to insure that the information I had was correct." to Soundwave.
(Radio) Soundwave sends Ghost a radio transmission, ' that information may prove adequate to keep your secret. Are they planning on disposing me from my position?'
(Radio) Ghost transmits, "Negative. They asked me were I interested in performing the work required should they ask Megatron to post me to it. I declined, stating that you are best positioned as this is comms, not purely data." to Soundwave.
(Radio) Soundwave sends Ghost a radio transmission, ' indeed.'
(Radio) Soundwave sends Ghost a radio transmission, ' Do you have an additional price for this information?'
(Radio) Ghost transmits, "Negative. This is simply due diligence in reporting what any intel officer would report. With the added bonus of.. I have the 'recordings'." to Soundwave.
(Radio) Soundwave sends Ghost a radio transmission, ' then we will be considered even.'
(Radio) Ghost transmits, "Simply doing my duty to the empire as /I/ see fit, Soundwave. You knowing ahead of time gives you a bargaining position and allows you to determine who might be best suited to assist them if not yourself. Just leave me out of any assignments." to Soundwave.
(Radio) Soundwave sends Ghost a radio transmission, ' Understood and appreciated.'
(Radio) Ghost transmits, "Do act at least somewhat surprised when they do ask you - or chalk up the intel from one of your memory keepers." to Soundwave.
Ghost continues to sort out items off of a todo list she's spun off, relaying comms through her chassis, maintaining her monitoring of the security systems.
(Radio) Ghost transmits, "Good eve." to Goth.
(Radio) Goth sends Ghost a radio transmission, 'Hello there..'
Banshee seems to be having a silent conversation with the giant machine. Whatever it is they're saying, it's deep-level, conveyed more with emotions and concepts than words.
(Radio) Ghost transmits, "Something was mentioned over the past few cycles, maybe weeks, having some time alignment issues at the moment. Weapons. You are a smith?"
(Radio) Goth sends Ghost a radio transmission, 'Smith isn't exactly the 'best' word for it, but, yes, I make schematics and build such, and I believe I mentioned such when I was speaking with you in the medical bay that day.'
(Radio) Ghost transmits, "Ahh, yes. You did. I find myself.. In need of a sword. Maybe two." to Goth.
(Radio) Goth sends Ghost a radio transmission, 'Hm? What type? and anything specialized about it?'
(Radio) Ghost transmits, "I had an energy Katana. I may be ready for an upgrade were that possible. And now that I've had a moment, two." to Goth.
(Radio) Goth sends Ghost a radio transmission, 'Hmm Dual wielding Energy Katanas, easy enough to do, considering what I saw last time, do you have a specific place for them? That way I could prep their schematic to fit properly into those spots, else might just make them a set of hilts you can turn the blades off and on with.'
(Radio) Ghost transmits, "Kept the old one in a spine sheath. Stayed solid when cold. I'm open to suggestions on other types however. I do prefer that blade style." to Goth.
(Radio) Goth sends Ghost a radio transmission, 'Hmmm well there are a few ways that it can be made and stylized to your specific needs, Energy, which could be turned on, or kept solid with a cold sheath like that, solid in metallic form that could break apart like a whip, mix of the two, vibro..'
(Radio) Ghost transmits, "Hmmm... Options. And choices. Interesting conundrum I'm faced with. Would it be better to discuss in person? Combat style and schematic review." to Goth.
(Radio) Goth sends Ghost a radio transmission, '....Mmmm It would be an idea, get an idea what your after.. Doubt you want to visit me while I'm repairing my mates injuries.'
(Radio) Ghost transmits, "With things as they are, what time I do have to be outside of Trypticon is highly limited." to Goth.
(Radio) Goth sends Ghost a radio transmission, 'Ah, would... I have to come there?'
(Radio) Ghost transmits, "It would not be advised. I can travel to you when you do have time. I am simply limited on how much I can give. Do let me know. And send my regards to Khamsin." to Goth.
(Radio) Goth sends Ghost a radio transmission, 'I shall.. I shall..'
(Radio) Ghost transmits, "Thank you." to Goth.

[Broadband] Ghost says, "Gallows humor, have to laugh at it or start killing people."

[Broadband] Calyhex says, "I do like that!"
[Broadband] Calyhex says, "sorry I was quiet. Im kinda confused about everyone erecting things."

[Broadband] Erector has joined this channel.
[Broadband] Erector says, "Look."
[Broadband] Bloody Bones says, "Who're you?"
[Broadband] Erector says, "Erector."
[Broadband] Bloody Bones says, "I would suggest, then, not starting before the children pee themselves laughing."
[Broadband] Astrotrain says, "Erector? I don't even know her!"
[Broadband] Calyhex says, "Hi Erector!"
[Broadband] Astrotrain big booming laughter
[Broadband] Folly says, "Oh hello! You are very popular!"
[Broadband] Bloody Bones can be heard facepalming. "Case in point."
[Broadband] Erector says, "And I like to build things. Like skyscrapers."
[Broadband] Deathsaurus says, "Stop it man...I cant laugh too hard."
[Broadband] Bloody Bones says, "Construction is a worthwhile endeavor."
[Broadband] Deathsaurus says, "who do you fight for erector?"
[Broadband] Erector says, "It is. Thank you!"
[Broadband] Astrotrain says, "Build things, huh? What did they do, fire Gripple? Grabble? Whatever the frag his name is."
[Broadband] Erector says, "I work with grapple and hoist."
[Broadband] Astrotrain says, "Grapple, that's it."

[Broadband] Deathsaurus says, "sorry but.."
[Broadband] Deathsaurus says, "If you stand firm and tall for longer then 4 hours see a medic."
[Broadband] Bloody Bones facepalms again. "Immature."
[Broadband] 55.5 Suicide Jockey FM DJ Encore says, "I made that joke earlier."
[Broadband] Goth says, "Des, please don't hurt yourself."
[Broadband] Deathsaurus says, "sorry. too late on that one but.."
[Broadband] Goth says, "Damnit"
[Broadband] Erector says, "hey if this keeps you from fighting"
[Broadband] Bloody Bones says, "I think the old saying is right. 'Growing old is mandatory, growing up is optional'."
[Broadband] Soundwave says, "I have more important things to do. Pardon."
[Broadband] Ghost says, "Comfortably numb sounds like an excellent plan."
[Broadband] Folly says, "Ah, I see the problem. Most Cybertronians do not require 'scale up' modifications past protoform state. So there is very little need to 'grow upwards'"
[Broadband] Bloody Bones says, "It's a term about mentality not actual growth."
[Broadband] Astrotrain says, "Uuuugh, leave it to some nerd to ruin it with an explaination."
[Broadband] Discretion says, "So says the flying brick."
[Broadband] Deathsaurus says, "you guys always call me a protoform may as well act it."
[Broadband] Bloody Bones says, "Growing up, in human terms, means maturing and not sniggering like a little kid at every little inappropriate thing."
[Broadband] Bloody Bones says, "Or at least not where everybody can hear you."
[Broadband] Erector says, "I dont mind if they laugh. really."
[Broadband] Erector says, "keeps them from fighting."
[Broadband] Calyhex says, "I dont understand the joke."
[Broadband] Starlock says, "Pshhh I'm a medical professional, I'm allowed to laugh when I'm off work~"
[Broadband] Bloody Bones says, "It's a human thing as well."
[Broadband] Calyhex says, "oh."
[Broadband] 55.5 Suicide Jockey FM DJ Encore says, "I'm a bartender. People don't like a morose bartender."
[Broadband] Calyhex says, "I can be morose if you like."
[Broadband] Calyhex says, "Calyhex. Laments."
[Broadband] Bloody Bones says, "Akin to the name Richard Head. Which, in human terms, is an insult when you use the shortened form of Richard known as 'Dick'."
[Broadband] Folly says, "Oh no! Don't lament."
[Broadband] Starlock chuckles.
[Broadband] Calyhex says, "calyhex broods."
[Broadband] Astrotrain says, "Dick is a loser. Don't be a Dick."
[Broadband] Ghost says, "Here Calyhex, this is happier. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y6Sxv-sUYtM"
(Pharrell Williams - Happy)
[Broadband] Calyhex says, "Calyhex dicks?"
[Broadband] Bloody Bones says, "And I didn't say 'don't laugh'. I said they don't snigger like a little child at every little immature thing."
[Broadband] Astrotrain erupts in laughter again.
[Broadband] Starlock snrks. "Oh honey noo."
[Broadband] Calyhex says, "Im being explained things"
[Broadband] Calyhex says, "oh."
[Broadband] Calyhex says, "Oh."
[Broadband] Calyhex says, "OH"
[Broadband] Ghost says, "Oh dear."
[Broadband] Calyhex says, "calyhex. Does not dick."
[Broadband] Folly says, "This all seems to be very confusing."
[Broadband] Discretion says, "No, Astrotrain dicks, in both of his alt modes."
[Broadband] Calyhex says, "and thinks this is inappropriate discussion for the insane people."
[Broadband] Calyhex says, "Calyhex can explain to folly?"
[Broadband] Deathsaurus says, "Astrotrain dicks three ways."

[Broadband] Astrotrain is laughing too hard to say anything witty in response.

[Broadband] Bloody Bones deadpans "Maybe you lot should stop dicking around."
[Broadband] Deathsaurus says, "I love it that its a verb now."

[Broadband] Deathsaurus says, "just understand I've got the great tits."
[Broadband] Bloody Bones says, "It's not a language. It's slang."
[Broadband] Folly says, "Slanguage, yes I understand"
[Broadband] Deathsaurus says, "I have a 12 year old organic son who I plan on teaching earth culture to. Unfortunately I have to know these things."
[Broadband] Discretion says, "Just send him to Earth."
[Broadband] Deathsaurus says, "I probably will"
[Broadband] Deathsaurus says, "hes in the nebula now with the others. I even have someone set up to watch over him. He doesn't need to be in this war. I don't know if his mother will agree."
[Broadband] Deathsaurus says, "great now Im missing the boy. Thanks."
[Broadband] Discretion says, "You brought him up."
[Broadband] Deathsaurus says, "I know."
[Broadband] Goth chuffs. "its a work in progress. don't you fret.."
[Broadband] Bloody Bones | Jack DeWitt pipes up, "Cap'n, maybe it's time to give this channel a rest. Not like they understand our slang."
[Broadband] Deathsaurus says, "Im missing a lot of milesteps. he was ten when I last saw him."
[Broadband] Deathsaurus says, "havent even met his sister yet."
[Broadband] Bloody Bones says, "Maybe you're right, Mr. DeWitt. Thank you."
The Rollout Bar - Toraxxis - Cybertron[]
Ghost steps into the Rollout, expression neutral. She's here on a mission.. Well, personal mission.
Soundwave comes in as well, his face unreadable as always. He moves to sit at the bar, but is quiet when he gets there.
In contrast Astrotrain is still trying guffawing as he stomps in, turning sideways to get his wingspan through the doorway. "Sweet Primus I haven't laughed that hard since Blitzwing dumped sugar in Octane's fueltank."
Soundwave shakes his head. "Amusement is good at times. I suppose as the ranking officer I should buy drinks?" he asks.
[Broadband] 55.5 Suicide Jockey FM DJ Encore says, "This one goes oot tae all the fliers. https://youtu.be/7DiWxcilWtU"
(Sonny Rhodes - The Ballad Of Serenity)
Ghost lifts a brow, "Lets keep this dutch." Tone amused, "Lest we end up owing one another favors."
Astrotrain grabs a stool for bigger mechs and pulls it over to thump down by the other two Cons. "Drunk favors suck."
Ghost smirks, optics glinting silver as she peers at Astrotrain. "So.. Since big blue and I are here to get blitzed, hammered, comfortably numb.. Does this mean you're volunteering to be the 'adult'?"
Astrotrain guffaws. "I spend most my time hauling your afts around as is, like frag am I 'designated driving'."
Ghost snorts, amused, "Guess we'll roll the die on a designated adult for later then. Hmm.." She looks at her forearm, then pulls a writing marker out. Taking a few moments, she writes her comm code on it with a 'Return to Trypticon C/O Tarn' note.
"Besides, helping you get that smashed is way more interesting." Astrotrain cocks his head to the side. "Get crackin' on it, barkeeper. And make sure you get me one of the big mugs this time!"
[Broadband] Deathsaurus says, "I dont think...."
[Broadband] Deathsaurus says, "he needs someplace safe where hes not threatened for sure. When the fortress is brought over and he is among cybertronians...it wont be easy to protect him"
[Broadband] Deathsaurus says, "earth is an option but he'd be an outsider in an outside place. A young humanoid raised with Destron rules."
<<Decepticon>> Ghost says, "Alright, I know someone owes me a favor, no questions. Later I'm going to need a ride home."
Soundwave pauses. "I dont normally drink too heavily around the troops. Perhaps I should just..watch." oh no. hells no. Soundwave isn't going to get people drunk and gather info.
Ghost chuckles at Astrotrain, "Its been a while." Then Soundwave speaks... She lifts a brow and stares at him for a few seconds, "Do you /want/ me to stab you? Because I will. Multiple times."
Soundwave chuckles. "Threat or promise?" he says. "Very well. Something light."
"Frag that." Astrotrain reaches back to grab a bottle off a passing wait-femme's tray. She gives the triplechanger a dirty look, but this must be usual behavior from him because she doesn't do anything else. Astrotrain turns and shoves the bottle into Soundwave's hands. "Forget troops, forget command, forget all that serious nullslag for a night. I can only imagine the sort of things you have to listen to, but you probably need it."
Ghost blinks, "No. You agreed to come and get hammered. No backing out." She then catche Astrotrains movements and grins a merry grin, "I like how you think, Astrotrain. LIttle help over the edge then smooth sailing."
Soundwave shakes his head. "Soundwave does not lose control. Ever. There is a reason behind it besides the obvious. There is too much at stake. However a slight overenergized buzz never hurt.." he takes the bottle and sits still for a moment. Hydraulics unlatch behind his mask with a soft hiss. He puts the bottle between the mask and his faceplate without removing it in a well practiced manner and takes a sip.
"What can I say, I have experience." One of his triple-bros is basically a keg on truck wheels after all. Astrotrain finally gets his own oversized mug of ener-brew. "Yeah, a buzz. I dunno what happened but you two sound like you need to take the edge off some. Now if you don't mind, I'm gonna make like my train mode and chug chug chug." That mug isn't going to last long being gulped down at that rate.
Ghost snorts, "Its not like if you lose your grip you could slide sideways between dimensions. Or worse." She flags a wait-femme down, "Double Worlds Collide with a sarcastic b---- chaser." At Astrotrain, she shrugs, "Slag just piles up every once in a while and like a volcano, pops, spewing ash and cinder everywhere like an inconsiderate aft-hole."
Soundwave doesn't stop once he gets going. He orders two more bottles. "Nightmare fuel. Double. And just keep them coming." he says in his normal monotone. Once he gets his bottles, he opens one "This." he opens the second, and chugs "Slagging." he then finishes up the one Astrotrain stole for him. "Empire." he then slams all three on the table.
"Oh don't I know it." Now Soundwave is getting into it. He just needed a little push, like Ghost said. "As boring as being a transporter is, at least I don't have to worry about -leading- this house of loose hexnuts -- no offense, Soundwave." He wipes his mouth with the back of an arm, and slides his XL-mug over for a refill. "You heard the big blue box, keep 'em comin'."
Ghost lifts a brow, watching Soundwave, then peers at Astrotrain with a shrug, "We're on a mission." She picks up the sparking, shimmering-looking thing that's set in front of her aside a smaller, simpler green beverage. "Well, it isn't going to drink itself." Wings give a shift as she braces herself, picks up the still sparking drink and slams it back.
There's a pause, a hiccup of air sucked into her intakes before she shakes her head and sets the mug down, picking up the chaser and slamming that as well. "Ok..." Blink-blink, "Jet fuel." Whiff of air out of intakes. "Managed to get kicked out of command everytime some aft-headed idiot thought it'd be a good fit. Successfully. Its my whole /goal/. Or the plan. Part of the fraggin' plan."
Soundwave sips slower on the next one. "How many years. 9 million more or less. How many years has it been." Oh dear hes going down that line. "Megatron has always been the fist. I have always directed him. The empire has always been just as I designed it. And look at it now." its a good thing he told his cassettes to be stay home. Who knows where all this is heading. He stands up and cracks his neck. "Even longer since I've done this." he heads to a empty-ish area. "Choose a song."
"And you make sure he doesn't actually nuke Starscream so he has someone to vent his frustrations on, right?" Though Astrotrain's snarky remark trails off for a moment as Soundwave gets up and walks across the room... "Oh, this is gonna be good." He grabs his refilled mug, turns on his stool so he can lean back against the bar and watch, proping one leg over the other. "That's right, go let loose a little."
Ghost waves for a second round, "Frag you." not really said in a heated tone. "I haven't had enough to drink for this level of slag, Soundwave. But, I can't let that go unanswered. 9 million years of being the invisible knife takes its toll as well, you glitch. Betcha big, blue aft didn't see /that/ coming Mr Behind the fist." She turns on the stool, "This is going to be /fun/." She considers, "Breaking the habit." And drinks her second drink.
GAME: Soundwave PASSES a DEXTERITY roll of Immense difficulty.
Soundwave starts to pop and lock. Once the music gets going he points at Ghost and then goes into this fantastic breakdancing routine. He gets down on the floor, handstands, spins, follows it up with a freeze and goes into a suicide. OOC https://dancepoise.com/breakdance-moves-list
Astrotrain pauses mid-gulp to stop and watch Soundwave get down and funky with his bad self. "Holy slag, check out that level of articulation."
Ghost watches over the lip of her mug, both brows up, "Well then." Blink.
Soundwave points to ghost in that served style and walks away.
Ghost can only laugh, "I only dance with swords and I'm fresh out of those."
"I swear, if this wasn't only the second mug I'd think I'd drunken hallucinated that." Doesn't stop Astrotrain from resuming draining his drink.
Soundwave pauses. "Could also spin some tunes if I had a couple more." He says. "The club is Soundwave's domain. Or was before..."
Astrotrain huhs. "You'd think they'd have a sound machine or somethin' around here."
Soundwave nods "Its a shame. Someone doesnt.." he presses a button. "Bring theirs with them." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4niL3p815H0
(Dystopian Club Mix)
[Broadband] Soundwave says, "Enjoy you slaggers https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4niL3p815H0"
[Broadband] Soundwave says, "taking requests"
Ghost gives a shake of her head, finishing her second drink and chaser. "I was disposable before." She smirks in a flash of unkindness, "Ahh.. here we go."
Soundwave nods "Aren't we all disposable. Soundwave was..in communications for his creator. Would sneak off and play at the clubs." He doesn't often talk about this. "But that was before...it kicked in. The sounds." whatever that means. "But for now. Thats not a concern is it."
[Broadband] Soundwave says, "This one works for better background music. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QBCLsnxNd4Y"
(MALO - March of Progress)
Soundwave starts to change his tune https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QBCLsnxNd4Y
Ghost's optics get a little bit of a gleam to them, "Baby Metal, Karate?"
Astrotrain finishes his chugging, and vents out into a deep rumbling belch. "Yeah, that's gonna keep the ol' afterburners hot for a while." He just shakes his head a bit. "Forget it. At least for now. None of that matters at the moment."
Ghost slides off of her seat, lifting a brow. "This should be amusing."
Soundwave tilts his head. "The song or the whole dance?" he orders yet another couple drinks.
Ghost grins wolfishly.
Ghost flexes wrists as she wanders into an empty spot, wings fanfolding underneath cowlings along her spine. "Well? Lets watch me fall on my aft, shall we?"
Soundwave starts to play the song https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GvD3CHA48pA but tilts his head. Perhaps grinning under that mask who knows. HIs optic band lights up anyways. He drinks two more bottles. "Lets go."
[Broadband] Ghost says, "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GvD3CHA48pA"
(BABYMETAL - KARATE)
[Broadband] Soundwave says, "I am so not holoing up the outfits."
Ghost sets her stance, "This.. I can do." Air punch.. K-pop, fun fun.
[Broadband] Ghost says, "I can live with that"
Soundwave bounces and air punches along singing along, almost forgetting for a moment to keep that stern monotone. Luckily that synthesizer just covers for it.
[Broadband] Starlock says, "i think thats the most drunk i've heard you in a while."
[Broadband] Soundwave says, "Yes..."
Astrotrain grabs another drink of his own. "Oh now this is a show."
Ghost mirrors Soundwave's movements, optics gleaming silver, wolfish grin on her face. Kick, spin, punch.. And singing along in her raspish alto.
Soundwave continues to spin, punch, which kick and sing along. He gives Ghost a challenging stare and then presses a button on his mask. He drops the synthesizer for a moment, revealing a raspy, deep baritone. He sings along as well now. Oh dear.
"Oh yeah, shake those ailerons!" Astrotrain pauses. ".. And whatever the hell music players have that's equivalent." Shrugs, deciding he doesn't care on specifics, and resumes his own overenergizing.
Ghost's wolfish grin slides rakish as she continues to mirror, singing along in her alto. Kick, spin, drop, punch. "Seiya Sese Seya"
[Broadband] Ghost sings, "Mada mada seiya soiya tatakau-nda kanashiku natte tachiagare-naku natte mo."
Soundwave doesnt even notice the grin changing rakish. He mirrors along singing "Seiya ses seya.." oh dear.
[Broadband] Soundwave 's voice? Is that soundwave. It is. But its deeper, raspier, less synthasized. "Seiya sese seya"
[Broadband] Starlock says, "...Wow they must be hammered."
[Broadband] Demonhead says, "Uh... You wa shock?"
Ghost finishes in a general fist up stance, wickedly rakish grin on her face. "Nice of y' to keep up."
Astrotrain stifles another high energy belch as to not interrupt the number. This is the most amusement he's had since... well since the whole dongs conversation with the Titan. But still. "Pity I'm probably going to be too drunk to remember this... Oh well, live in the moment. Bring me another!"
Soundwave chuckles. "Soundwave is just getting started." he puts that synthesizer back on. He leans in to whisper something to Ghost and then struts back to the bar, crossing his legs and taking in the place like he owns it.
Soundwave whispers to Ghost, "oh if only we met a few million years ago"
Ghost's brows lift and she blinks, "Really?!" Fists on hips, "Fine, bring it."
Soundwave does something he doesn't do often. He chuckles. "Well then." he takes another sip of his drink. "Lets go. Name your poison." he says, returning to the dance floor.
Ghost scuffs her foot on the floor, "All about that base. With.." She waggles finger, "all the moves."
Soundwave actually..cackles. "Yes."
[Broadband] Ghost snickers.
Soundwave keeps up the dance, doing his best.. oh no soundwave. No no no one wants to see the boxy thiccness.
GAME: Soundwave FAILS an AGILITY roll of Very High difficulty.
Ghost rests hands on her hips, then starts to sing along to the song. Shoulder shrugging, hip popping out. "All about that base, bout that base, no treble." Shaking her aft and spinning. "Yeah, it's pretty clear, I ain't no size two," wiggle, "But I can shake it, shake it, like I'm supposed to do..." Boom boom, "'Cause I got that boom boom that all the boys chase, And all the right junk in all the right places" Sashey, spin.
Soundwave keeps it up for a good five minutes before faceplanting right into Ghost. He chuckles softly
GAME: Ghost PASSES an AGILITY roll of High difficulty.
"I ain't drunk enough for this." Astrotrain drains another XL mug. "Okay, now I'm drunk enough for this." Tosses the empty mug over his shoulder. It shatters in the background, some cat aniformer screeches "Just put it on my tab!" The mech cracks his knuckle joints as he gets up.
And gets in on the dancing this time. He's a big boy, he can fill in for some of that so-called 'boom boom' shaking.
Ghost skids just a bit but ticks the landing! " She waggles finger at Soundwave, "I'm bringing booty back, Go 'head and tell them skinny bitches that"
<<Decepticon>> Ghost sings.. and might be more than a bit hammered, but still on key, "I'm bringing booty back, Go 'head and tell them skinny bitches that"
Soundwave rolls back up like he didn't fumble and starts to do the airpunch thing. He wold whistles and starts to airgrab above Astrotrain's 'cargo hold'.
<<Decepticon>> Comm Guy Soundwave says, "bout that base. Bout that base. No treble"
Astrotrain gets in some extra aft gyration to go with Soundwave's grabby gestures.
<<Decepticon>> Major Astrotrain joins in with his distinct reverb echo "All 'bout that base, 'bout that base. No treble!"
<<Decepticon>> Comm Guy Soundwave says, "I have an important question."
<<Decepticon>> Ghost says, "No.. Treble.."

<<Decepticon>> Ghost says, "Oh you're horrible.. horrble.. Habblible.. Bad mech"
<<Decepticon>> Major Astrotrain says, "I'm too drunk to know what that means, I just know it's annoying and it's perfect"

<<Decepticon>> Goth says, "...I should be offended, but I'm not."
<<Decepticon>> Comm Guy Soundwave says, "but..you're not..a fox."
Ghost staggers to the bar, giggle-snickering. "Awful, bad mech..." She orders a plain mid-grade, knowing that the rest of the stuff she's had hasn't even fully hit. "Aft..."
<<Decepticon>> Ghost says, "Dindedingdingding.."
Soundwave just continues airgrabbing Astrotrain's butt to this song now.
<<Decepticon>> Ghost says, "I /hate/ you (snicker)"
<<Decepticon>> Comm Guy Soundwave says, "somewhere deep in the woooooods."
<<Decepticon>> Major Astrotrain drunk singing. "CHAW CHAW CHAW CHAW CHAW CHAWCHO! CHAW CHAW CHAW CHAW CHAW CHAWCHO! CHAW CHAW CHAW CHAW CHAW CHAWCHO! WHAT DOES THE FOX SAY!?"
<<Decepticon>> Comm Guy Soundwave says, "ducks go quok...fish go blub and the seal goes ow ow ow"
<<Decepticon>> Major Astrotrain doesn't care what part of the song it is, he just repeats the most annoying line possible.
<<Decepticon>> Comm Guy Soundwave says, "so beautiful...like an angel in disguise..."
<<Decepticon>> Ghost says, "There's not.. enough booze.. inthis bar.. to erase this.. mockery.. travesty.. of music."

Ghost drops onto the stool she had been on, shaking her head at the sheer. depth of the moment. She turns, sipping the id grade, and just.. blinks, watching the shenanigans. "Oh... wow..."

Soundwave flops over. "I dont care. Yes."

[Broadband] Soundwave says, "Slaggit. I did it to myself didnt I?"
[Broadband] Soundwave says, "Im going for a walk when I find my legs."
Ghost looks over and just /glares/, reaching back between her wings to grab at something.
That isn't there. "Slagger."
Soundwave is kinda just slumped over on his stool. "I had to go there. Sorry. Um. Slaaaagnuggets."
[Broadband] Soundwave says, "boom goes the nitro. Told you you dont want me drunk."
Astrotrain snorts. "Don't worry, I can fix that." Goes back to shifting through his own stockpile of music. What else do you think he does when stuck in orbit for long stretches? Sure as hell not mope like a certain other snob shuttle does.

Ghost hrmphs, optics simmering a silvered violet as she looks at empty hands. Her wings give a snap-flick before she leans over and stabs at Soundwave with a finger, "You slag sucking, dimwitted, numpty-headed, bastard." Hiccup of air.
<<Decepticon>> Major Astrotrain picks the mood back up sort of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5JqY-6q-RNA
Soundwave hears Astrotrain's song and stands up "Better!" he starts to dance rather drunkedly to the next song, like that little maudlin moment didn't happen.

[Broadband] Soundwave says, "we're not gonna remember or repeat...wow is that the ceiling or the floor"
Astrotrain gets up to join in, but ends up swaggering and leaning against the bar a bit heavier instead. "Okay.. no more dancing tonight.." Doesn't stop him from grabbing the nearest container of alcohol and chugging it down though.
Ghost looks over at Soundwave, tips her mug of mid grade and grins wolfishly, waggling wings with a 'Yeah I'm drunk but not like you'
Soundwave tries to continue dancing but pauses, staring at the ceiling "Im not as thought as you drunk I am. You don' know me." he reaches for another bottle and almost falls over.

Ghost blinks, looks at fingers, counts them.. Shakes her head, "Ye=-ahh, going t' be a bit before I can fly.. Soundwave, you're cut off.." Hand cutting at throat.
<<Decepticon>> Comm Guy Soundwave says, "that was LOW ghost. I'm sober enough to know what that meas."

<<Decepticon>> Comm Guy Soundwave says, "touche. You won I think."
<<Decepticon>> Comm Guy Soundwave says, "theres no coming back from that one."
Ghost waggles wings and tips her mug with that wolfish grin.
Astrotrain waggles a digit at Soundwave. "You're drunk." Leans closer to Ghost. "You're not drunk enough." Then leans back the other way, and hauls himself onto his feet properly. "Bartender! Imma goin' to my usual pass out booth now, send me a nightcap to finish passing out with." He sways over to a booth, and collapses in it. Almost under the table, with one big foot up on the back.
Ghost snickers, "I"m plently drunk. Comfor-tbly numb-ish."
Soundwave glowers at the music choice. But doesn't have a comeback. "Gonna go for a walk." he grumbles. Ghost 1: Soundwave : 0.
Astrotrain wiggles his aft just to make some extra obnoxious squeaking. "It's not parallel docking in the space port but it'll do."
<<Decepticon>> Major Astrotrain starts humming Space Unicorn again until he finally passes out.
[Broadband] Soundwave says, "going for a walk."
Ghost lifts a brow, watchign Astrotrain park himself.. "Call for a pickup, Soundwave.. Or I'm walkin' with you."
<<Decepticon>> Comm Guy Soundwave says, "going for a walk."
Soundwave grunts. "Don't need a pickup. Just need to ...." He staggers. "Yeah."
Ghost slides shanix over the bar, paying for her and Soundwaves drinks. A slight wobble to her walk, wings shifting to counterbalance as she walks to Soundwave, "Come on, big blue. Lets take that walk.." Slight slurr.
GAME: Soundwave PASSES an INTELLIGENCE roll of Immense difficulty.
"We don't have anyone that turns into a pickup!" Astrotrain very lately snarks from the booth, already half way to passing out now.
Ghost smirks, "I could call Prime, he /doe/ owe me a favor.."
Soundwave sees Ghost pay "Oh no. I'm buying." he says, sounding oddly sober for a moment. He puts some shanix on the table. "Not owing anyone anything after.." he says. "And thats a sad thing, Astrotrain. Very sad. My neural net is on fire right now."
Soundwave snaps "I'm not letting prime buy me drinks and take me home."
Ghost grins wickedly, "But the /story/.." She snickers, "But kinda hard t' explain long term." Blink, brow lift. "Lets.. get this walked off.. Come on.."
Soundwave chuckles. "This'll be enough of a story. Let's walk then." he says, offering Ghost a hand.
Ghost smirks and instead of taking the hand, hooks her arm with his at the elbow. "We hold hands and folks'll talk."
Ghost adds, "Now we're just drunks." Wink.
Soundwave pulls back "Right didn't think about..' he hooks arms with her. "Like this. Yes."
Like the two hooking arms to walk is going to do /anything/ about the debacle but hey, drunk logic.
Soundwave wobbles along "We're never just people." he says. "But the thought counts."

Ghost snorts, "Nobody got stabbed.. It's all good."
Soundwave grunts "nights still young." he chuckles.
Ghost smirks, "No.. Nights not young... Got a bit to walk. Should be pretty sober when we get back. Unless you've got someone t' call." Weave-walk.
Soundwave nods "You'll know where to find me. At my labs. Thank you for the walk back."
Ghost nods, "I'll be in Trypticon."
