MTMTE Swerve X reader {how to be failure 101} chapter 3. Grew up
A human? Swerve couldn't be more excited. Since the moment Rodimus mentioned a human, he couldn't concentrate on what was being said to him. Something about a party, that's what he did hear.
He knew all those things about humans, all those shows will finally pay off. He and the human would get along just fine, if they missed earth, they could go to him to get an earth feeling.
Or not. They could also hate Swerve for assuming he knew everything while actually he was just an amateur. Oooh, how Swerve wished you'd like him.
Because Swerve was one of the only ones knowing about the human, almost everyone got to know the secret soon enough. He just wouldn't stop talking about it. Some even asked him about earth stuff so they could could get bigger chances at being your friend. Offcourse that made Swerve more insecure because the more the others knew, the less of a chance he had with you.
After a while, the bar was ready with a big text.
'Welcome to the Lost Light' it said.
It was almost time for Ultra Magnus to come in with the human. Normally Rodimus would do it, but Magnus didn't trust him with it. Instead, Rodimus waited at the bar, preparing his speech and when he was gonna say 'til all are one'.
Meanwhile, you were still at Rung's office, getting some motivation.
"I really hope this won't cause any problems..." You said.
"Everyone will like you, I promise. Having a human on board will make our journey more exiting."
You missed earth. You missed your friends, the shops, internet. Gosh, you missed the internet. Offcourse, Rung noticed.
"Hey," He began. "If you ever miss home, I advise you to talk with a friend of mine. His name is Swerve, he's a barkeeper and knows anything about earth."
"Thanks Rung," you answered.
Rung smiled at you, happy that at least someone says his name right.
"I advise you to come visit me at least one a week (y/n), being so far from your planet and society can have a huge impact, i really hope to see you more," he said softly.
Just as Ultra Magnus came in, you gave out an answer, "okay."
"(Y/n), it's time to go." Stated Magnus.
You nodded, and hopped down from Rung's table, walking a fast as you could behind Ultra Magnus.
You panted a "How far is it?" Out.
In which he answered, "Not so much, you'll manage."
When you arrived at the door, you had to climb on Ultra Magnus's hand, so he could hide you using his other hand. Rodimus persisted that you should be a surprise reveal, and who was he to ignore orders.
The doors opened, all eyes were fixated on Ultra Magnus, Rodimus jumped up from his seat and stood on a table to get all the attention. Swerve's bar was flooding, and only most knew about your existence.
Still, all this was making Swerve anxious. He shifted his balance from one pede to another, and twirled his thumbs around eachother. His face couldn't decide between smiling like a goof or staying serious.
Rodimus fake coughed, "Everyone, listen. Today is a special and oussem day. Because yesterday, we have found not one, but TWO humans on an attacked space ship." He poused, seeing if all the attention was on him.
"One is heavily injured and might die, but we have things under control. The other one, is totally fine, and is now officially part of our crew. Sadly, all the rest of their crew perished on their ship."
Whispers spread around the bar.
"They are very far from home, and have no way of going back. Please, have a bit of perspective and welcome them as an equal. Until all are one!"
"Without further ado," added Ultra Magnus, "we now present you (y/n) (l/n), the human that is perfectly fine."
He opened his hands, and handed you to Rodimus. He put out his hands so you could stand on them and be seen by everyone.
You looked so nervous and cute, Swerve thought he was dreaming. Finally he could meet a human maybe even befriend them if he were lucky. He was now biting on one of his fingers to keep him from rambling and interrupting.
"Hello everyone, since you already know my name I'll just skip that part... I am really grateful to be able to live here and have a place to stay."
You tried reassuring yourself that everything is fine, when done, you continued.
"I hope we all get along and I'm excited to even be friends with the one who want. I am still a bit in shock, but when I'll get better I am happy to answer any questions asked." You smiled.
When done, Rodimus again shouted, "Til all are one!"
That was the que that the speech was over, and so everyone started talking and trying to ask questions.
Drift tried keeping everyone calm, while Ultra Magnus pushed people away that were getting too close. Rodimus on the other hand, held you up hight so nobody could snatch you away.
He whole place was a chaos, the party had not even begun and Swerve was ordered to close the bar to get some peace.
Only some people were allowed to stay behind, and you got introduced to some others.
"So," you began, "You are Chromedome, you're Rewind, you're Brainstorm, Swerve, Skids, Whirl, Cyclonus, and Tailgate. Damn that's a lot to remember."
"There's a lot more that you'll meet over the time," reminded Skids.
"Who let Whirl stay here again?" Asked Brainstorm.
Whirl his attention switched from you towards Brainstorm. "You wanna fragging go?! Cuz i will mess you up real good!"
Magnus stood up and quickly grabbed a hold on Whirl to set him down, then he explained to Brainstorm that letting Whirl stay was the only way to calm him down. Brainstorm wanted to talk some sense into them, but your chuckle interrupted him, all eyes were on you now.
"Sorry, sorry," you laughed.
Oh how lovely your laugh sounded to Swerve, humans were truely amazing.
"Say (y/n), how's recharging in the same room as Rodimus?" Started Tailgate.
"Ah, it's..." You looked over at Rodimus, still pulling on your sentence. Rodimus was practically sitting on the verge of his chair.
Rodimus his grin got bigger, seems like his ego was getting bigger. While Ultra Magnus shook his head, Tailgate gave out a chuckle.
Suddenly, Cyclonus decided to make his presence clear, "If you don't mind me asking (y/n), how did your life look like on earth?"
Your smile faltered. Since you got here, you never had a chance to look back at your life before the launch into space. Nor on the first ship with your crew had you had the chance to do that. Everyone around you was always a distraction.
Cyclonus seemed to notice your change of attitude. "If it's too personal you don't have to answer. It's okay if you-"
"It's fine. I'm fine. I just didn't get chance to think about it too much."
Everyone listened carefully.
"I.. my life on earth," you started, "Wasn't particularly bad, but also not perfect. I lived on my own in a small apartment, too busy with the internet too find friends, and little on money."
"But I've made it work. I figured things out to find the money I need. And so, here I am." You laughed.
"You came here for money?" Asked Brainstorm, getting a nudge from Chromedome. Glares were shared between both.
"No no, not here specifically. More like send into space with a new gadget."
"You weren't sure you were gonna make it and you took the chance? Not only you but 4 other people too." Asked Rewind.
"They needed one other volunteer."
Whirl butted in, "You just went for a suicide mission for money! That's oussem!"
He got a smack from Ultra Magnus. Then he tried fighting against him but was threatened to leave the room if he didn't behave. Unwilling to leave a chance with a human, he remained... Something like calm.
Deciding to brighten up the mood a bit, you started talking again, "Hey, if it weren't for that, I wouldn't be here now meeting you guys!"
It worked, and it was totally calm again. Until Chromedome spoke again.
"Hey Swerve has been uncharacteristically silent this whole time."
The others decided to join in.
Skids nudged Swerve, "Yeah pal, you've been quiet this whole time. Everything alright?"
"Yeah everything okay there?"
Swerve, who was leaning his head on his hands, put them on his lap, a nervous laugh escaping him.
"Y.. yeah guys. I'm... I'm fine. Just observing. I've never seen a human before, I mean I have but only on screen, never in real life. It's different you know, I mean you're not different, the experience is just different. I'm sorry I'm rambling again aren't I?"
"Good luck with him fleshy, he can talk your ears off asking questions. Won't even give you a chance to answer," said Whirl.
And as fast as Swerve's mood went down, it came up again when you spoke, "I'll be fine, it just means he's excited. That means a lot to me."
You were so nice!! The poor guy couldn't believe what he was seeing! Well... What he was hearing, but that doesn't matter. He was happy.
Suddenly something inside you started to- not hurt but- it was uncomfortable. Not unbearable, easily ignored.
It didn't worry you, you've felt plenty of sudden pain in your chest for no reason in the past. Enough to determine that it wasn't anything, say, dangerous.
"Well it's getting rather late. Not like that's bad or anything, since the plan was to just party. But there's no party," said Skids.
Chromedome agreed. You could see how he nodded while looking a Rewind sincerely. "It's best me and Rewind go recharge then, its always good to get some extra sleep."
He took Rewind's hand, and they stood up, taking their leave. "Goodbye (y/n), it was nice meeting you!" Waved Rewind.
Slowly, everyone started to leave too. Rodimus left you behind, since you were having a conversation with Swerve.
And then you were left alone with Swerve. After a while he seemed to notice how you yawned, signaling that you were getting sleepy.
"Okay I think that's enough for today. Do you know where Rodimus's hab-suite is?" He asked.
You shook your head no, because how are you supposed to know where someone else's room is in just one day, and don't even get me started on how big this ship is.
"Do you want me to... Bring you there?" Swerve asked unsure.
He hoped you would say yes. This way you could talk more, get to know eachother. He'll get to know more about you. So when you nodded, he practically jumped from his seat and picked you up.
He was so excited, he forgot to slow down to have the chance to talk with you, and ran immediately towards your and Rodimus's hab-suite. Suddenly realising that he messed up his chance.
"So uh... Will you come to my bar tomorrow? Not that you have to offcourse, it would be just nice to see you again. N-not in a weird way," He asked.
"I'll do my best to come over." You smiled.
Swerve smiled back and slowly put you down on the ground so you could ender your shared room with Rodimus. With one final wave, he left.
