Summary:
First Aid re-entered the room, looking down at the datapad that had the results from the scans he’d just performed. He looked up at them, gave a little nod and said, “Well, you’re correct. Congratulations, you’ve sparked.” And with that Tailgate all but lost it, jumping up onto the berth like it was some kind of bouncing rubber instead of solid metal. He was clinging to Cyclonus’ hand with one of his own, rocking on the balls of his pedes. “We’re sparked!” Tailgate exclaimed. “Did you hear that Cyclonus, we’re having a sparkling!” His hand goes to his chest plate patting it, “Just think, we didn’t know it could happen so fast and now we’re got a little spark in here right beside mine, and when she’s grown we’ll get–” “Excuse me,” First Aid cut into Tailgate’s very effusive declarations, “I didn’t say you were the Carrier, Tailgate.” -------- Cyclonus and Tailgate followed all the advice and wisdom for having the perfect sparkling, only for it not to go the way they planned. It's fine, their third Whirl thinks this is all hilarious and they are sure their sparkling will still be just what they wanted.
