A Bit-Part Demon (or Human)

[redshirtrobot]

WHO: Fracas and YOU!
WHERE: The Junk Pile and Megatronus's temple
WHEN: Throughout species swap
WHAT: Hunting for food (and maybe a mask) and trying to keep out of too much trouble.
WARNINGS: n/a; will update as needed


Fracas's first reaction to being human was mostly horrible screaming at the fact that he was human... followed by horrible screaming that everyone could see his face. He wasn't ready yet, fraggit. He'd just gotten to the point where he was okay mentioning it to mechs that weren't from his universe at all so they had no point of reference.

Well, no way to hide it now. He just has to... deal with it. And deal with having to eat all the time. He needed to find some and while he knew there was a stockpile, he was more than a little hesitant to get around that many people like this. It was all so obvious. Out there.

Which is why he's spending a lot of time digging around the Junk Pile, fingers crossed that he could find something to eat for the day.

When Fracas isn't there, he's usually in Megatronus's temple. In spite of the fact that Megatronus's temple seems to be full of dangerous people, he felt safer being around Shockwave. Probably because he was. Shockwave was still him, after all. With the huge cannon and the giant guard-worm.

[The scale between their everyday items and them is a little bit extreme now, yes. He has to use two hands to lift even one of his tools.] Oh, no no. He's really friendly isn't he?

Y-yeah, it's me. It's a little weird, I know. Me looking like this instead of... normal. [Where no one can see his face.] I didn't know this had happened to you, too.

[raceme]

[Blurr's pile of paperwork is now a tower. Looking at it hurts him.] You have no idea. I DON'T think all turbofoxes are like that, Magnus's turbofox doesn't behave like this. [But it could be because Magnus is her owner.]

We both look weird, don't worry. By human standards I think you are pretty good looking. I was actually lucky it happened. [It saved him from being eaten by a crazy sparkeater!Skids.]

[expendablemechanic]

[To be fair, paperwork is enough to make anyone hurt, even when it's not huge.] Maybe that's because it's Magnus's? I don't mind, though, Frank's pretty cute.

O-oh, thank you. That's really nice of you... You're really cute too. And how would this be lucky? [Well that sounds horrible.]

[raceme]

[But Blurr likes paperwork! he's only frustrated because he can't do it now.] Are you saying that mine being a silly ... what do humans call it?..., derp has anything to do with me?

[Blurr is trying to give fracas a serious look and failing.]

You are welcome. Ah...cute? I was lucky to change to human before skids ate my spark. He's a spark eater now.

[expendablemechanic]

[Fracas wouldn't be sure what to make of that.] Oh he's not that silly. He's just friendly, is all.

[He is happy to stand here and pet the heck out of the big guy.]

Yep, cute. Oh, he's a... wait, a what? That sounds terrible!

[raceme]

[Give it to Blurr, obviously.] Good then. [You get a smile for that, Fracas. He's also amused at the view of a tiny human petting a horse-sized alien animal]

He's fun to ride too if you enjoy speed.

ButImnotcuteatall. [He's manly at hell! :C] He didn't do it on purpose. I hope so, at least.

[expendablemechanic]

[Blurr you are officially getting any paperwork Fracas has.] Well it's... like human pets, right? Which are sort of like people; all of them are different. [Frank is a very good - and right now big - puppy.]

Heh. How much speed is speed, exactly?

... being cute isn't bad, you know. [Manly is for field operatives... They usually end up scrapped :\] I hope so too. Maybe someone will figure out how to fix this?

[raceme]

[He won't complain!] Good point. All organics animals seems to enjoy pettings a lot too.

[Blurr moves closer and pats scratches the turbofox under his chin affectionately. Frank automatically starts kicking one of his hind legs in a fast movement, clearly enjoying it.]

You have seen me running, right? He's almost as fast as I am.

It just seems...I don't know....it's embarrassing. [And it make shim feel weak. He ended up cubed :'(]Soon, I hope.

[expendablemechanic]

I don't have much experience with those, myself.

[Fracas pauses, watching Frank's leg... and laughs a little. He'll have to remember that spot for later. Maybe the Driller would like it...]

I have. And he is? Woah. That's pretty quick, I have to admit. I've known a lot of other Vehicons I thought were cute. Well, or might be cute, anyway...

It's really not.

[raceme]

I learned a lot those last days, _{cats make} funny sounds.

[If Blurr knew what was going on on that head of yours fracas, he would be horrified at the idea of Driller doing that.]

Turbofoxes are the quickest animals in all Cybertron. Or they would be if we had more. [Blurr smiles, half hiding behind Frank's big head and neck.] Thank you then. [He's not blushing, you silly vehicon.]

Hmmm.

[expendablemechanic]

Cats? Huh. What sort of funny sounds, exactly?

[The Driller is adorable, in its own special way. At least, to Fracas it is.]

Maybe more will show up? [He pauses, leaning a bit to try to get a look at Blurr again.] Are you... are you blushing?

[raceme]

Like revving but now quite. It's a bit like...hm...prrrrrmmmrrrr.....[He's trying go explain it as well as he can, please don't laugh.]

[Fracas, that creature is a giant killer metal worm. You need new friends.]

Maybe....what, no! [He leans back slightly. He wasn't blushing, sir.]

[expendablemechanic]

... Huh. That is weird. Do they have little engines in them or something? [Because it sounds like an engine so far.]

[Driller is a nice giant metal worm! He's sweet and likes when Fracas pets him, what's the problem?]

Are... are you sure? [He leans in a bit more, tilting his head to get a better look with his good eye.]

[raceme]

Perhaps they do, I haven't seen a cat's interior. That wouldn't be nice for the cat. [Too messy too.]

[THIS is the problem. Nice worm my aft.]

Ab-so-lu-te-ly. It's just that I ...[Woah, so close. Blurr goes silent, only blushing further.].. Is this body, doing weird things!

[expendablemechanic]

No, I guess it wouldn't. They're... kind of squishy aren't they?

[Fracas has never really had a problem with that part! It's just sort of... something the Driller does sometimes, that's all.]

You are blushing! [HE KNEW IT and he backs off.] S-sorry.

[raceme]

Squishy and fragile.

NoooOOoooo...[Blurr's buries his face against Frank's neck, who's rather confused about what's going on between his two pet humans.]

Yip?

[expendablemechanic]

Well if you aren't then why are your cheeks all red?

[He's pretty sure that means you are blushing dude. Fracas pauses and looks up at Frank, scratching under his chin and shrugging. Beats him.]

[raceme]

..'mcold... [Humans change colors when they're cold, right? Right.

Ahhh more pettings, yes. Happy tail wagging.]

[expendablemechanic]

Then... wouldn't you be shivering or something? [See that part he knows about. Not getting to the towel on time after cleaning is miserable.

Fracas smiles at Frank, continuing to pet him.]

[raceme]

What are you, an expert on organics now? [That was half murmured half grunted :C]

[expendablemechanic]

No... but I have been cold in this body. [Admittedly it didn't last long, but still 8(]

[raceme]

Ah. Me too, when I woke up I was all naked. This body is _{rather funny, no wonders} humans use clothes to covers the really weird parts. [Blurr points to his midsection.] That's that thing in the middle?

[Bellybuttons, what are those good for?]

[expendablemechanic]

Well, which thing in the middle? There's like... organs and stuff.

[You have to be more specific than that.]

[raceme]

No, not those inside...the tiny weird little hole. Is that an injury?

[He doesn't know its name >:]

[Frank was tired of his humans being silly so he just lies down and waits for them to stop doing...whatever they are doing.]

[expendablemechanic]

Oh! Oh that one. No, I thinks that's normal. It's a, uh... belly button?

[He thinks that's right.]

[Fracas pauses to look at Frank... and chuckles. Yeah, turbofoxes are definitely cute.]
