... Come then. In my quarters.

Have a solution. Temporary, but more suited to you than destroying things.

I will be there momentarily.

[They see me rollin'?]

I will be waiting.

[They lovin'. Really.]

[You know, I do not believe that is how the human version goes, Ironhide. Though, I do prefer yours.

Knock, knock.]

[I know you do, darling.

Door's opened, and a glowing, blue-ish cube is dangled in your face.]

Found some.

[Wow.

That is quite the greeting.]

... Where did you find that?

[Only for you.

He steps away from the door, letting him in.]

I told you. A social... gathering.

[He steps passed, trying not to laugh at the idea of Ironhide at a social gathering.]

I thought that Shockwave had the only supply of energon on the ship...

[Shuts the door behind him, he's grinning.]

He did. Now I have another supply... For now.

[Shaking his head. He should have known he would be able to get some if he wanted it.]

An entire supply? [Chuckle] How long do you think that will last?

[He should have. Passes him one of the cubes, taking one too.]

How long will it last...? [Glances at him] Depends on how angry you are.

[He takes the cube, grateful for his... skill in obtaining it. :|]

Hmm. [Looks at the Energon, still deciding.] Well, he did say that I was incapable of free thought.

... [looks at it too, thinking as well.]

This may last us tonight. Depends on... if you think an automaton like you can out-drink a sentient being like me.

[Teasing. Totally teasing.]

[... Drinking to that. B|]

I believe I will be able to keep up just fine.

[Drinks to that.]

Can you? Never could before... I am more accustomed to it.

[This is a very bad idea, but he will continue to drink heavily from the cube. He has never been able to outdrink Ironhide before, and that is not going to change now.

... But it isn't going to stop him from at least trying.]

I am quite capable of holding my own, thank you. Or are you worried about being shown up by the medic?

[He'll just take a position against the wall, not trusting that squishy bed thing to hold him up. He knows he can outdrink Ratchet, easily. But it's more fun to watch him try. Less stressful too. His cube is emptying rather rapidly, however...]

Hmpf! You have never been able to "show me up". And when you try, you get shot. Usually from behind.

You are hardly one to speak about getting shot.

[Ratchet is far more adventurous and will attempt the squishy bed - which creaks rather ominously under his weight, but so far so good. His cube isn't emptying nearly as quickly, but he is certainly not nursing it.]

And I seem to recall that you were shot in the chest when Starscream got my... Hm. When he shot me in the back.

I am built for it. You are not. Primary function to be shot...

[He sounds almost proud of this. And smug. He watches the creaky bed for a second, making sure it doesn't collapse and drop the good doctor.]

They always go for the chest... Mission City... Egypt... half the fights with NEST...

[Glances at him.]

When he shot you in the aft. Repeatedly.

Hmph. Does not mean you should strive to be hit.

[He's going to concentrate very hard on his energon now, and thank Primus that robots are incapable of blushing. Yes, thank you, Ironhide - he does remember being shot in the aft.

Repeatedly.

He has the welds to prove it too. :|]

... Back, aft. Close enough.

[Oh look, this energon is very good.]

I do not. Just happens. At least I hit back.

[He's grinning, he can tell he's embarrassed, which is better than being angry. Tosses off the rest of the cube, going for another.]

It is not. The dam tore your back up. Starscream preferred your aft.

I was not aware you paid such close attention to my backside.

[He takes a long swig after that, as he is quite certain he will need it. Perhaps that was not the best phrasing he could have chosen...]

[And he promptly chokes, the surprise clogging up his intakes for a minute. He just... stares down into the cube before knocking back about half of it to give himself a second to think.]

... Only because I have to cover it so often. Slow old... [grumble]

[He is just going to concentrate on his own, finally polishing off his first cube. My, it had been some time since he'd had a chance to actually sit and drink high grade like this - he could already feel its effects.

He presented the emptied cube to Ironhide, waiting for another.]

It makes up for the times I have to repair yours.

... Who are you calling old?

[It'll be a few more for him. He's mellowed a bit, but not nearly enough. Disadvantage to drinking with lightweights, they always go down before you do. He passes over another cube, eying the level of his. This was a good idea.]

Just who needed repairs after the dam? Hmn?

... [Points his cube at him.] You. You old ruin.
