Okay!

[Screen on, Soundwave up, steadying his drone as quickly as possible]

Quit glitching, I just- left and- Okay good.

Hey guys! I've been working on modding drones! Like... like a lot of drones. Wheeljack actually isn't like... you know... really totally terrifying or anything, and he let me have some stuff to use and it's great!

Here's one I made just yesterday-

[And he shows... a sweet looking steam punk modded drone, gears and copper parts and all]

Pretty wild, right? I can do all sorts of skins, if you bring me a drone. I'll make it look just how you want! Personalized drones! So uh... yeah bring me stuff you want me to work on! You don't have to give me anything for it or anything, I just really need something to do with my hands, or I get twitchy, I guess....

Oh! uh, Wing! Are you doing anything tonight? Like do you wanna go out and do something? I mean not like out out... out.... Like a date out just... Okay no we're just friends out, doing friends stuff. Not dating.

Just like a drink or something.

As friends.

[Her gaze started to go a little flat. No. No way this is stupidity. Gotta be ignorance she reasoned with herself.]

A bridge. That connects two RELATIVELY CLOSE spots of ground. What... what kind of tech is that?

[That's not disdain you hear, that still stung fright and curiosity. Because while yes, it did scare the shit outta her... that was pretty cool.]

[It's not, he just has no idea where else groundbridge would be applicable. Why would you put a physical bridge on the ground?]

But it's like... over stuff. Like water and canyons. A groundbridge is uh... well like portals that you fire up to connect two places together.

Like a tiny wormhole!

A spacebridge connects a point where you are to another planet or something. So a groundbridge, but bigger. Y'know, an actual wormhole.

Sooo tech that folds space/time-[she concedes with a pinch at the bridge of her nose as her other arm laces across her stomach.]

I'm sorry, I just-- I'm new. Here. I'm adjusting.

[popculturecon]

Yeah! Like that. It is all like... fabric anyway. It's pretty easy for me to do, it just takes energy.

[The mods he had ensured he'd have plenty of that though]

Oh man, I keep forgetting how far behind humans are. Okay yeah I get it. I'm sorry! I didn't know it'd freak you out.

It's not the jump that freaked me out, just the proximity. My fault, should have given you the coordinates for ten paces that way. I'm used to having more warning then that.
