for the selfship asks: 4, 23, 24 for any of your f/os?
(Thank you so much for the ask! I’ll do Bumblebee for this one!)
4. Do you and your F/o ever go stargazing?
We have a couple of times! It’s been when I stay overnight at the base; I’d be up on the roof looking at the sky, and he’d find me there. The first couple of times, he and I exchanged stories and myths from our respective cultures about the stars. Though I don’t know a lot about what humans know about space and the stars, he’d be excited to listen to what I knew anyway. The times afterward was us simply talking to each other about our day and enjoying each others company in silence. It’s some of the only times I’ve seen him sitting still! It’s sweet.
23. When did you two start falling in love?
I started falling in love when I saw how much he cares for his allies. It’s really apparent when he’s fighting; he’s got an eye on all of them, giving them aid when they need it. He also acts as comic relief, someone who goofs around to lighten the mood for their benefit. On top of that, he’s genuinely funny and tries his best.I think he had a crush from the time he first got a genuine laugh out of me. I usually snicker or scoff at jokes (and groan at puns), but one time he got me laughing so hard I was wheezing and crying, absolutely delighted over whatever stupid thing he said. From then on, he tried getting me to laugh like that again.
24. Who says “I love you” first?
It was me! I’m usually super-duper careful about my feelings, but it was something that kind of slipped out. A Freudian slip, if you will. He was driving me to my house and telling an embarrassing story about Optimus. I was laughing really hard, refusing his avid “It’s true!”
I heaved a big sigh after getting over my laughter and said “Augh, I love you” without even thinking. Pause, realization, blush. I tried covering it up by yelling “THAT! I MEANT I LOVE THAT STORY!” to a shocked Bee. Even after he pried the truth out of me and confessed in kind I still couldn’t function until the next day. Cue a lot of me screaming into my pillow about it.
Send me a number and an F/o!
