[NEXUS RP] Soundwave, Ravage, Predaking, Laserbeak

[soundwave_ascendant]

Just at the edge of the perimeter between Destron Hall-to-be and the Wilds, Soundwave lay back on the hillside and looked up at the stars, which were so different and so familiar all at once.

Ravage was a pleasant weight against his side, head resting on his shoulder, fingers entwined with his, as they wordlessly pointed out constellations they knew to each other, drawing new ones where their knowledge ran out.

With his free hand, he pointed to a pair of stars in a tandem orbit, circling each other but always keeping their distance.

Ravage shook his head. {We used to be like that, but not for long. And we didn't explode when we finally breached the distance.}

{I remember a few explosions. You were especially beautiful afterward.} Soundwave laughed, then frowned. Rumble and Frenzy were inside with Laserbeak, Ravage was right here beside him, the other cassettes were dormant, and there was no-one around for miles--until now.

Who was that strange mind-- and what was blocking out the stars at the edge of the Wilds?

Soundwave smiles, not for the first time feeling that it's ironic he's always been a communications officer.

"Soundwave: sometimes difficult to understand. Thought I said I would do that."

He examines the card. It's still seated, so he carefully places the pins to anchor it before he seals the layers of derma over it.

"Should work now. Ravi can show you command gestures."
