[He'd first realized something was up when he'd tried to contact Elsa via the drone and gotten no response. After several repeated attempts failed, he'd gotten worried enough to go up to her ice castle and check on her in person. When he got there, however, he found it to be a slowly melting ruin. And that's when he'd known for sure that the day they'd both secretly feared would come finally had. 

He'd stayed there a little while, just looking at the ruined ice castle without really seeing it, before turning around and heading back down the mountain. When he comes on the network,  he's back in his apartment, expression solemn, and gaze averted from directly looking at the drone's camera.]

I thought you all should know... Elsa's gone. Sent home.

[He kinda trails off there, not really knowing how to continue. What else was there to say, really?]

And.... that's it, I guess.

[A bit of a pained look crosses TC’s face – he’ll never get losing Skywarp. Not a lover, but his wingmate, so…kinda close to same?]

Yeah, not something you can really be ready for, no matter how much you say you are.

Let me know if you want to go out anywhere.

…have I ever taken you flying?

[Lea may or may not know it, but that’s an offer he’s made to VERY few people.]

[hotheadwarmheart]

[Lea simply nodded to the first part. No, he hadn't been ready for it. Perhaps knowing in advance that it could happen and preparing for it had softened the blow slightly, but not much.]

No. Never actually gone flying with one of you guys. Rode in Blurr's car mode once, though, which was... interesting.

[Slight pause]

Is it as weird for you guys to have people riding inside you as it is for me know I'm riding inside somebody? I've always kinda wondered.

[And he might just be trying to distract himself a little so don't mind him.]

*headdesk* He'll never get OVER losing Skywarp...

[notyourblueangel]

[Distraction's not a bad thing at a time like now. Hell, it's primarily what TC's here for, so...]

[He shrugs.]

A little. Guess you might think of it like carrying a kitten in your pocket or something.

[Wow, TC, where did THAT even come from? He's not even sure, except that he's something like it on TV once.]

[OK, that gets a faint smile.]

Heh... Always been more of a dog person myself, but I get what you mean. Nice to know that we're not completely weirding you out.
