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.

[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.]

[raceme]

A button? I thought only clothes had those. [Blurr looks down at his midsection, meanwhile Frank yips when he hears the chuckle. He's the cutest, definitelly.]

Ah well...aehm...I was looking for Frank because I was going to get back to the pantry. Do you want to come? We could go eat something.

[expendablemechanic]

Humans do too, apparently. Weird, huh? [He crouches a little to pet Frank's wiggling hindquarters.]

Really? Well, sure, I'd love to go. It'd be a lot easier than picking around here.

[raceme]

Funny. Perhaps they have more things like this, I'll ask Saber later. [Frank makes a happy sound and then stands up. DID SOMEONE SAY EATING.]

Yes, a lot. we could ride Frank to get there more quickly.

[expendablemechanic]

Maybe. I don't really know. I probably should have asked Shockwave or something... [He seemed to know more about humans than Fracas did.]

Well, all right. I'll try anything once and this is probably my only chance.

[raceme]

Shockwave? [Blurr frowns at the name. He looks more wary than angry, though. That name brings back painful memories.]

Yes ehm...Frank, you don't mind, do you? [Blurr pats the turbofox 's side and the beast yips and licks his face. Then he lowers half of his body so they guys can sit on him.] That's a no.

[expendablemechanic]

He's been... helping me. He knows an awful lot about humans. [And got him bedding and things.] I know you don't trust him, but... I wasn't sure where else to go.

Heh. Thank you, Frank.

[raceme]

How come he knows so much? [Blurr never expected that from Shockwave. Blurr sits on Franks back, looking wary.] He's dangerous and he might be using you for some reason...

[expendablemechanic]

I dunno. I haven't asked him, honestly. [Fracas ought to, but he feels weird enough about this already without weird conversations. He sits down behind Blurr on Frank's back.] Yeah, right. He desperately needs me in order to fix the lighting in his room...

[raceme]

Perhaps he's been on Earth too. [Or he experimented on humans. Blurr would believe that second option.]You never know, he could have plans for the future. Or he could be faking being you friend so you share information with him.

[That sounds like a very specific concern, isn't it? Anyway, Frank noticed that both of his new pet humans (yeah Fracas, her adopted you, be happy) are up and ready to go. You two better hold onto whatever you want because he's almost running at the speed of light already.]

[expendablemechanic]

Maybe. I dunno. Maybe I'll ask him, sometime. [Probably some time when the conversation has otherwise died out.] I don't really have any useful information on anything. Nothing useful to him, anyway.

... And that's kind of specific. [Really specific actually. Though for the moment Fracas is wrapping his arms around Blurr's waist with a squeak. Fast turbofox!]
