This is exactly the angle she didn’t want to go through. “Yuuta,” Crescent Sky murmured, kneeling down to look at him better. “Yuuta – Yuuta calm down. I never said I was going to leave,” guilt weighed heavy on her soul as she tried to console the boy. This, was exactly why she usually kept her mouth shut. “I don’t plan on leaving, I just…” How did she explain this properly? “Let’s try this, have you ever heard of ‘ghosting’?” 

          lips drawn and brow raised yet,  concern for his friend had not vanished even when she assured him she wouldn’t leave.  yuuta drowned his worries ( vocally, at least ) to give her the chance to explain herself.   ❛  ghosting?  ❜   no, he had never heard of such a thing.  the little inspector’s head rose,  as if he was trying to remember hearing such a thing.  but he gave in,  shaking his head and patiently waiting for her to explain. 

( meme,  accepting. )

          ❛  n-no.  ❜   despite his determination to remain resolute,  yuuta was already on the verge of tears.   ❛  i’m okay,  i just  ━  i...  ❜

( meme,  accepting. )

          ❛  going crazy?  ❜   yuuta’s tone was indicative of his confusion.  he looked up to sid with a wary stare and a quirked brow.   ❛  what do you mean?  ❜

"Ahh. Uncomfortable silences and alcohol. Just like thanksgiving at home."

"You have no chance of being normal."

"Don't ever be afraid to come to me with stuff like that."

"A person doesn't have to be perfect to be exactly what you need."

"It's the kid inside of us that keeps us all from going crazy."

"I don't dislike you, I nothing you."

"Nothing's worse than a ninja - they're masters of every style of combat."

"Have you been in the supply closet, crying?"

"It sounds like you're asking me out on a man date."

"There's a good chance I'm gonna kill someone."

"The only way you could be more useless right now is if you actually were the wall."

"Gosh, now I'm too proud of you to be mad at you."

"Relationships don't work they way they do on television and in the movies."

"Sometimes it feels like you're holding back."

"All you do is bitch about your relationships all day long!"

"We're only four seconds in and I'm already regretting my decision."

"I can't believe you lost our bottle opener."

"I think we both know there's a little more to it than that."

"Does this lipstick make me look like a clown?"

"Why don't I ever listen to me?"

"Well isn't that just the pickle on the giant crap sandwich that is my day."

"Come on, what's the worst that could happen?"

"I can't help but notice you love telling jokes."

"Do you want to be alone?"

"You're telling me that you actually made a decision that had a positive impact on your life?"

"Can you get that for me? I can't reach it."

"Don't look in her eyes, she might steal your soul."

"I refuse to be judged by a grown man wearing a hockey jersey."

"That was my mistake. I keep forgetting that you're a horrible, horrible person."

"Why are you so afraid of loving me?"

"Do you want to cry a little?"

"Why do you have to jump out and scare me all the time?"

"What do I know about good relationships?"

"Newsflash! You can't drink and then come to work!"

“That’s good.” She smiled gently, almost grateful for the topic change until it returned. Crescent Sky’s smile fell, and she shifted uncomfortably. “I… Have a bad habit of disappearing, and it leaves me forgotten and alone a lot.” Crescent Sky rubbed the back of her neck and bit gently on a light blue lip. “I’m, uh, still not sure how to stop doing it. Sorry for the outburst Yuuta.“

          ❛  you do?  ❜   leaving.  yuuta hadn’t liked the sound of that,  much less the thought of it.   ❛  but everyone’s so used to you being around!  you can’t leave!  ❜   she hadn’t exactly said she was going to leave,  but he couldn’t stop the worry from bubbling up.   ❛  no one could forget you!  ❜   he burst out,   ❛  i-if you left,  it wouldn’t be the same.  ❜

          “Well, they’d have to try some to find out! I’m sure if they took a couple of sips no one would mind, and they’d be able to figure out how energon effects them at the same time.”

          She crouched down next to the little human and gave him a pat on the head.

          “Don’t worry! I’m sure if they try just a little they’ll be perfectly fine!”

          yuuta’s silence indicated a held thought.  he couldn’t see how it would affect them too badly,  they were robots after all!  even if cybertronians were alien,  they’re basic mechanisms were at least... SOMEWHAT similar.  right?

when a significantly larger hand patted the top of his dark hair,  yuuta shook out the static result of the metal’s contact.  the ensuing pout didn’t last too long. 

❛  maybe.  maybe you’re right!  ❜   he sounded a bit more hopeful.   ❛  is that all you eat?  or... drink?  no gas or oil?  ❜

@b-osu liked for a starter – !!

The team in charge of transporting Japan’s newest Brave was in a state of panic. Before they could even get her to her new place of work she’d run off! Or flew off? Drove off? Whichever it was – she was gone. How were they going to explain to their boss that they had lost such an expensive piece of equipment?

Oblivious to the commotion she had caused BP-510 AKA Phantom dipped through the skies in her helicopter mode. Phantom was happy to be free from the transport truck and to see the new place she had been taken to. She’d only been with the New York Brave Police for a short while after being built, but she was never meant to stay there in the long term. Japan was to be her new and permanent home.

Changing into her root mode she found herself drawn towards the water’s edge. She stared outward – towards the sunrise. For a moment she was enraptured by the sight – unaware that she was being approached. 

          HOURS passed since the expected arrival of their new officer and everyone had grown worried.  when an empty truck and panicked handlers greeted the brave police,  they had all set out to find her.  with the roaming criminals just aching to find their own robot  ━━  be it to break it down or turn it against the metropolitan police department  ━━  yuuta and company wasted no time in the search.  everyone split and went their own way,  including the boss and deckerd.  if they were to find her,  they needed to cast the largest net they could. 

he should have brought a bike.  yuuta ran,  turning corners and barreling down straight stretches,  asking each passing citizen if they’d seen a ROBOT about.  each answer only brought about despair;  if the other brave police haven’t found her,  how could HE possibly find her?  (  how hard is it to lose a giant robot?  )

there was still one place he never checked.  yuuta was breathing heavily by the time he arrived.   ❛  whew,  ❜ hands on his knees,  the boy leaned forward and spared what little time he could to catch his breath,  only to find he was in the company of the missing brave.  quickly he straightened himself and trotted to her, afraid she might run off again.   ❛  i didn’t think we’d ever find you!

though... you didn’t have to run off.  you really had everyone worried!  ❜   despite this, he was so relieved to have found her.  relieved to see her safe.

          the loud voice that called to him brought a smile to his lips and dimples in his cheeks.  yuuta turned around,  only to find that blare was reaching for him and scooped the little inspector into his arms.  he curled his much smaller ones about the robot’s neck and laughter bubbled up from his throat.   ❛  blare!  ❜   he hadn’t expected to see him,  it was a welcome surprise. 

“Everyone learns from somewhere, buddy, and I feel like you might be an excellent guitar player. Once you master it of course.” Wiggling his index finger with a broad grin on his features, and looking over at the other children who were busy with their own little tune going on. “I take it that, you like to play with instruments, right? I mean, sure the notes might be off, but the expression on your face say so other wise.” He paused before adding in, “The names Blare, what about yours, kid?” 

          ❛  you think so?  ❜   that he might have potential at mastering the stringed instrument brought a light to his eyes like no other.  yuuta grinned and confidence swelled,  even if it was just a tad embarrassing.  after he laid the back of the instrument atop his thighs,  he leaned forward and nodded to blare’s inquiry.   ❛  y-yeah!  i don’t have any at home,  but i like playing in music class.  ❜

it was exciting to meet a new sentient robot that didn’t try to KILL him.  when blare had given his name,  yuuta smiled up and introduced himself.   ❛  tomonaga yuuta!  ❜

@b-osu

“Hey kiddo, you’ve got some rhythm! ” spoke the seven foot tall robot as he was casually teaching children at the park some guitar lessons. This planet remind him a lot back home (not that he’ve seen it, maybe for a few second before it blew up!), and these children aren’t different from the ones back on the spaceship and fun to be around with. Especially this one who seemed to be enthusiastic with his lesson.

          whether he truly excelled at this or not,  yuuta loved playing.  any instrument he could get his hands on,  he played even if he didn’t know how.  but with this guitar in his little hands,  he was learning and he loved it.  so much that the robot’s approach and sudden praise startled him into playing an ugly mix of notes.  before he could drop the guitar he tightened his small grip on its neck and gathered it into his lap.  yuuta sat up right and scratched his cheek,  trying to cover the reddish color.   ❛  r-really?!  ahaha...  i mean i guess so,  huh?  ❜

          Skyburst frowned. 

          “Well– I.. I’m not sure, actually. Their systems are a bit different compared to mine, and they probably would just wanna start out with plain old energon before jumping to enjex.” she added, a mischievous glint in her optics. 

          “It’s powerful stuff! Even makes the bigger bots tipsy if they drink too much.”

         ❛  tipsy?  oh ━  ❜   maybe not what he thought.   ❛  i don’t know how  ━  how energon would affect their systems.  ❜   yuuta’s uncertainty was plain in his voice and how he scratched the side of his head.  that sudden look in her eyes might have put him off the idea of giving the team foreign fuel.  just a little.

“Um…” looks like Trisha couldn’t think of much to say either… “Do you know…”

Scrap what was a word or phrase to keep this going? “The Autobots?”

Then again what were the chances that there were Autobots here in Japan since there was only sightings of them in Detroit?

         “Engex! It was meant for a bot bigger than me, though, so.. well, I don’t remember much of that night, actually.” Skyburst admitted, grinning. “Somehow I got my footprints on the ceiling, though!”

          ❛  engekkusu?  i’ve never heard of that...  ❜   if skyburst couldn’t remember much after drinking it,  it must be a powerful fuel;  though,  not in the sense that yuuta thought.   ❛  could the brave police drink it?  i bet they’d like something new!  ❜   his face lit up with the idea that it’d make them stronger.
