Only the best

Don't scratch the paint.

[Sitting at a lookout point, Sunstreaker is all kinds of pouting Lamborghini. He'd much rather be back on the base with his favorite wax and cloth... listening to Sideswipe and Blue's chatter.]

-The wrench had rebounded off of Sunstreaker’s helm and smacked Sideswipe right in the center of his. His hands immediately go to his faceplates where his forehelm instantly starts to bubble with pain.- OWOWOW… 

-Ratchet… well this will be interesti–… yup there’s definitely a dent on his helm now.-

[irritablecmo]

"Do not start with me Sunstraker. You too Sideswipe. You two are causing more work for me than the whole SLAGGIN’ AUTOBOT ARMY!!” He was now standing over the two warriors, yelling at them. “Is it so hard to LISTEN TO ME? I should reformat you two into a pair of toasters. GET UP," he hissed demandingly and motioned down the hall in the direction of his medical bay.

"Not a word from either of you.”

[vaingloriousfrontliner]

[With a growling engine and continued glare at the red and white bot, Sunstreaker stood and begun marching off towards the med bay as indicated. He shot a look at his twin, clearly saying that this entire mess was his fault. Under his breath, mainly for only Sideswipe to hear, he cursed at his brother.] Slagger.

[recklessprankster]

-Automatically, he reacts and grapples with his twin. Rolling on the ground and hitting this way and that– even biting. He plays dirty and Sunstreaker will have more than just paint to fix up.-

[irritablecmo]

With no one showing up as demanded, Ratchet took it upon himself to hunt down his victims. Primus’s light was shining down on him when he heard the tell tale shouts of two frontliners going at it. This wouldn’t be the first time. Rounding the corner, he saw the two in the midst of an all out brawl and took it upon himself to break them apart before it became too worrisome.

"I SLAGGIN’ TOLD YOU TWO PIT SPAWN GLITCHES TO GET YOUR AFTS INTO THE MEDBAY.”

With a medics precision, he flung his wrench at both their helms.

[vaingloriousfrontliner]

[Before he could land another hit on his twin, his helm met with the metal wrench and he instantly keeled over, holding his helm in his hands. Primus, did that hurt. At least it managed to halt him from decimating Sideswipe.] Damn medic...

[vaingloriousfrontliner]

A joke. A joke? You slagging call this mess a just a little joke?! [Another two hits landed and he yanked the other mech up by the metal along his collar.] The only joke here is you.

[recklessprankster]

-He cries out from the hits and glares up at the testy bot. Oh how quickly this starts turning into one of their typical spats. Sideswipe snarls and rams his helm forwards, headbutting the other mech.- Kiss my aft.

[vaingloriousfrontliner]

[He grunted when his face was bashed into by Sideswipe's helm. It caused his hold on the other mech to loosen as he brought a hand up to his nose. Energon rand down it and Sunstreaker growled menacingly before initiating one of their customary twin fights: no holds barred. 

Sideswipe will pay.]

[vaingloriousfrontliner]

[Closing in, Sunstreaker leapt and tackled the other mech down to the ground. As soon as he pinned his brother under him, he landed a hard punch to the idiots black helm.]

[recklessprankster]

-Face first on the ground, Sideswipe squirms to try and get away, only to cry out when his helm is hit.- OW! Mother fragger. It was just a little joke Sunny geez!

[vaingloriousfrontliner]

A joke. A joke? You slagging call this mess a just a little joke?! [Another two hits landed and he yanked the other mech up by the metal along his collar.] The only joke here is you.

[vaingloriousfrontliner]

GET BACK HERE. [Running after his evasive brother, Sunstreaker is nothing but a yellow blur of anger. Anyone who would be so foolish enough to get in his way of dismantling his twin would be bowled over and flattened.]

[recklessprankster]

-Skidding around the corner, Sideswipe happens a glance over his shoulder and sees his twin closing in. Slag!- 

[vaingloriousfrontliner]

[Closing in, Sunstreaker leapt and tackled the other mech down to the ground. As soon as he pinned his brother under him, he landed a hard punch to the idiots black helm.]

[recklessprankster]

-Doubling over, holding onto the wall for support, Sideswipe outright cackles at the look on Sunstreaker’s face.-

[vaingloriousfrontliner]

[The laughter only served to piss him off even more. His paint, his precious paint, was ruined by the horrid colors now decorating his frame. With an angered shout– twin bond flaring with rage–, he charged at the laughing Sideswipe.]

[recklessprankster]

-He stops laughing only at the shout and murderous intent coming from Sunstreaker and his end of their twin bond.- Oh slag! 

-Yet even as he starts to run for dear life, he’s laughing.-

[vaingloriousfrontliner]

GET BACK HERE. [Running after his evasive brother, Sunstreaker is nothing but a yellow blur of anger. Anyone who would be so foolish enough to get in his way of dismantling his twin would be bowled over and flattened.]

[recklessprankster]

-Peeks from around the corner… Attacks Sunstreaker with a paintball gun.-

[vaingloriousfrontliner]

[His frame was suddenly pelted with different colored paint. The air around him crackled as his temper suddenly hit breaking point. He knew exactly who it was too and was going to pummel that brother of his into the ground.] SIDESWIPE!

[vaingloriousfrontliner]

... [He is just going to ignore that open comm.]

[recklessprankster]

32.

Dude you have a problem.

[vaingloriousfrontliner]

I am aware. It has a black helm, red chassis, and an irritating voice. A real pain in my aft.

[daytimeblogger]

Oh??? apparently I’m a Narcissist? 

here is the quiz if you want to take it 

[vaingloriousfrontliner]

[sharptalkingdatsun]

*With as many nights Bluestreak has shared with Sideswipe, the gunner is far from surprised to hear the prankster already falling into recharge. It makes Blue feel good though to know he helps the other mech into relaxing enough to fall into stasis so easily. The red plated mech already has that effect on him. 

What does take him off guard is Sunstreaker’s quiet words. It has the Praxian moving his helm to look up into the warrior’s handsome faceplates. Of the three of them, the golden mech has always been far less vocal so anything said from Sunstreaker has always been something Blue makes sure to carefully listen to and take to spark.

His optics brighten slightly. Even if the statement may seem simple enough; knowing and hearing Sunny express his gratitude verbally has Blue’s smile broadening.*

Ah I- *That large smile of course makes him feel idiotic which makes his cheekplates heat up slightly. He’s given up on trying to be somewhat smooth with the two Lambos but it’d be nice if he could not get flustered for once*

Thank you for being here, Sunstreaker. *There’s so much more he wants to say. Thank you for accepting me. Thank you for wanting to make this work with me. But it all just seems to go everywhere but out of his mouth as he looks up into the artist’s very attractive faceplates. Face beyond hot, he buries it back into Sunny’s neck; smiling against him. One step at a time. He couldn’t express everything he felt with Sideswipe over night but he got there. And he’ll get there with Sunstreaker one day. He promises himself this*

[vaingloriousfrontliner]

[Feeling Blue shift his helm to look up at him, Sunstreaker automatically looked downwards, meeting those blue optics with his own. When the young gunner's lips pull into a broad smile, the golden frontliner is momentarily taken aback by the intensity of it. It wasn't like he had not seen it before– he's been the recipient of it on a few occasions– but something about seeing it now, when they were like this, served to be more satisfying. And in that span of a nanoklik, he found himself wanting to paint it, to concrete that smile on a board to be looked on with awe. The heated cheekplates are a wonderful bonus, too.

That said, it actually made the more reserved twin smile down at the Praxian he had now in his arms. He had felt Sideswipe's own satisfaction for being able to get the other mech flustered a number of times and now he, Sunstreaker, is the one who was solely garnering that charming expression.

Blue's words falling from his lips made that smile on Sunstreaker's face turn all the more rare as his entire expression took on a fond look. If anyone saw the way he looked at the doorwinger now, they would think that it were someone else controlling the usually ill tempered warrior's mind. But that simply went to show how much he was willing to make their new relationship work in due time.

It wasn't just about him anymore– it was about Blue.

When Blue buries his face back into his neck, Sunstreaker's smile did not fade. He simply brought his right hand up to the back of Blue's helm and his fingers lightly stroked the grey plating.]

信号機

[sharptalkingdatsun]

*The sounds of both frontliners’ engines purring hits the Praxian’s audios and has him smiling into Sunstreaker’s neck. At Sideswipe’s simple comment along with Sunny holding him tighter, Bluestreak feels his good mood just increasing even more. With how happy he is, it’s hard for him not to be more affectionate with the twins right now; even with as cautious as he tends to be.

His own engine purring he nuzzles into Sunstreaker for a moment and moves one of his hands to reach back and pet one of Sides’ horns*

[recklessprankster]

-He felt so damn relaxed right now. Face practically buried against Blue’s neck, his frame pressed right up behind the grey Datsun’s form, Sideswipe’s blue optics shutter offline. Feeling that touch on his sensory horn has him making a soft pleased sound as his engine gradually begins to quiet; his systems quickly leveling out.

He probably holds the world record for falling into recharge so quickly.-

[vaingloriousfrontliner]

[Knowing his brother for as long as he did, Sunstreaker didn't even have to look down to see that his twin was already offline. The feeling from Sideswipe's end of their shared bond resonated loudly within him. He was quiet for a moment longer, letting the sound of the other Lambo's soft exvents and slowed whir of his systems be the only noise before his deeper vocals sounded.] Thanks Blue... It meant a lot.

[He wasn't a mech of many words, but he needed to try and start expressing himself more especially around the doorwinger. Having Blue deliver them that little surprise was something unexpected and greatly appreciated. It wasn't just for one or the other, it was for them both. The thoughtfulness was there and Sunstreaker, having not shared as much time as Sideswipe had with Blue, thoroughly enjoyed the moments they did have. He liked knowing that Bluestreak thought of him.]

[sharptalkingdatsun]

*Now on the berth with two Lambos snuggling up to him, it’s safe to say Bluestreak is practically on cloud 9. He’s always enjoyed the times where Sideswipe and he have cuddled; usually after a hot facing session. But to be able to have a moment such as this with both frontliners, it’s beyond perfect and leaves the gunner’s spark pulsing wildly in his chassis.

Not feeling the need to fill the silence with his chatter but also wanting to let his mechs know how happy he feels because of them, Blue brushes his EM field against both Sides and Sunny; letting the joy radiating off of it speak volumes more than he could verbally*

[recklessprankster]

-Feeling his brother’s spark answering his own causes Sideswipe to nuzzle even more into the gunner’s neck. That good feeling of his is simply amplified when Bluestreak’s EM field brushes up against his own. He can feel just how happy and content the doorwinger is right now and that in turn makes the red Lamborghini feel that much more incredible.

Both Sunny and Blue, snuggling with him in the berth. What more could he ask for? His engine positively purrs.-

Frag this is great.

[vaingloriousfrontliner]

[Words didn't need to be spoken for Sunstreaker to feel Bluestreak's joy; the Praxian's EM field did a find job at relaying that. And just like Blue, when he hears his brother utter those words, Sunstreaker echos them by tightening his hold on the Datsun in his arms. It really was great. It really was something he had not expected to happen, but it did, and he was entirely too pleased.

He liked having Blue between them and his own engine gave off a deep, almost quiet purr.]
