After a long talk at tea time, the best time, I was chilling in Shockwave's. I have wanted to learn more about how to make their fancy tech, maybe one day I can make a machine that does your laundry, that would be helpful. Speaking of robots and tech, I was writing whatever he did on a blank sheet of paper, he connects a wire, I write that you connect a wire, he flips a weird switch, I write he flips a weird switch. Simple, like pie.

I wish I knew all of this stuff already, maybe I should form some logical reason that he should teach me instead of just watching and observing. Yeah maybe it might blow my mind into bits and pieces at parts like the coding but I am sure I'd do fine. Maybe.

"Strange, no Decpeticon that we know of was mining any part of Idaho for Energon, that is illogical for any bot to try as there isn't any reading for energon." Shockwave notes, adding on to what I was saying about that weird random energon explosion. I am still clueless. Like how I am clueless on what the heck he is trying to make right now.

I shrugged my shoulders but continued to write, "Eh, Maybe it was the Autbots paying a visit? They might have caused the explosion," I suggested. Glancing at his work.

"A logical accusation, they might be getting desperate for any scrap of energon they can find. They might have thought it wasn't a bunch until they actually started to collect it. What would be the reason for the explosion, is however weirder. There couldn't be any fights," Shockwave stopped to give me a glance with his one red eye.

I mumbled, my brain not concluding what happened, and it's making me frustrated that I am just so non-knowledgeable in this! "There was no one there when I got there, don't question why I visited the site." I mumbled, hearing him say under his breath "curious", which he was not wrong. "Do you think it was human? Because I was pretty darn close to the explosion, I would have heard bots escaping." I said while fiddling with my now dull pencil.

I looked up at Shockwave's screen, it's filled with so many cybertronian letters, some I recognize some it doesn't, maybe the it's numbers I'm not getting a hang of. Soundwave hasn't taught me the numbers yet, focusing on the language of the letters and certain words. Strictly forgetting about the... bad language.

I have been taking "classes" with him since I don't have school and plus I really wanna learn some of their tech and language all together. Maybe their customs too. Do they have something similar to a birthday? But for now just gotta memories the alphabet.

"I don't doubt humans could have been involved with how...-" He pauses, giving me a glance, then looking back to his work. "-...unintelligent they can be." I was expecting a lot better of a roast, but I guess he doesn't think about roasting humans completely in front of me. Wish Starscream wouldn't do that and somehow be correct about most of what his rambling is about. "Any unknown substance that cannot be comprehended should be treated with caution, exceptionally when you don't know what can activate it."

"Mhm," I agreed, sitting up because my back is hearing. Making a grimace when I hear the cracking of my bones.

Shockwave's head snaps to my figure a bit too fast for my comfort, "Did you just fracture your bones even more than before?" I couldn't tell if he narrowed his eyes in worry or frustration. Possibly both. Or he was just Narrowing them

"No, I just popped my back, and before you ask, no, it did not damage my back." I grumbled, laying onto my back instead of sitting. Looking back at my sheet of paper to look like it did not affect me.

"That sounds illogical with the way your face is," Shockwave commented. Why did he have to read me like a book at all the wrong times?

"The noise disturbs me," I frowned, such a weird conversation changer that was. I don't understand why it doesn't freak out the ones popping their backs, knuckles, and literally every other bone. How do they live-

"Hmm," Shockwave goes back to working while I go back to writing what he was typing as best I could.

After so long you get bored of doing the same thing for a couple straight hours. So I strayed away to go stretch my legs and maybe go do something. Maybe there are faults and maybe not.

Should I...

~Go back to Shockwave's lab

~Go to the flight deck and check on Starscream

~Go to the energon room and snoop

~Go to the medbay and chat with Knockout

~Go to the throne room and see what Megatron is doing

~Go find Soundwave and his companions

~Go back to the closet to sleep and get my energy back

~Stare at the mysterious wall

I choose to... (Pick one).

If no one picks any I'll spin a wheel.
