Have you guys heard the singing of black ice? It's the sound of ice forming and cracking on a lake , sounds real pretty and I think it's relaxing :)

Fair warning though, Sunny thought it was the sound of blaster fire in the distance and that turned into quite the afternoon of 'for the love of God put the gun down'.

That sounds like Cybertronian music! It's really beautiful.

Wow! I didn't know our music sounded like that.

It doesn't all sound like that. That'd be like saying that all Earth music sounds like... who was Prime listening to earlier? Ah yeah, Elvis! But some of it does. That's a sound from my youth, young'un.

I vaguely remember listening to music like that too. I didn't know ice could sound like it. This planet is amazing!

It is. I... I am learning to appreciate Earth and all its wonders. But I still get homesick for Cybertron. I never intended... I had hoped...

Are you OK? What's homesickness? Is that what's been making you all snotty and... and stuff?

It isn't a thing you catch, Rod. It just means Megatron misses home.

Really badly.

So much so that it is... it is something like a physical pain. I sometimes feel as if might spark might stop.

Oh. Sounds horrible!

It is.

Here's a little something you guys out there might find interesting. When I lived in northern Europe, I never ventured up into the countries this close to the Ultima Thule. This is Jonna, way up in Sweden. She's a singer of Ancient Nordic Songs. This 4 minute video introduced me to a phenomenon I'd never heard of. I was instantly fascinated. You will be too. I've no doubt at all. No wonder the Danes, Swedish, Scandinavians, and Finnish believed strange, frightening, dangerous spirits lived in the depths of their mysterious lakes. In the Epic Saga Beowulf, Grindal and his even more ferocious mother resided underneath a lake. Might it have been this very one? Who would've believed the Winter ice can sing?

Listen to the strange singing of the frozen Black Sea

As far as we know, there isn't an army of dolphins wielding chainsaws beneath the Black Sea. And hopefully no Elder God is waking from its millennia-long slumber. But the ice around Odessa is singing and squeaking all the same.
