How to Tame Your Jazz Without Him Noticing in 47813 Steps or More

Based on keferon's Earthspark JazzProwl AU

Jazz is such a cool guy! He's friends with everyone, and everyone loves him! Decepticons fear him and pray to Primus whenever he's near, and... what else? Is there anything else known about him? Does it really matter if he's real or fake? It does to Prowl.

Prowl isn't good at a lot of things, however, he is emotionally intelligent and masterful at making plans. He's very much aware of Jazz's mistrust in everyone, even in those within the Autobots, and the only people he trusts are fewer than a handful. Prowl wishes to be part of that "fewer than a handful" because Jazz is just so cool! More specifically, he wishes to hug him.

What's the most rational thing to do when you want to hug the most mistrusting mech (besides Red Alert) in all of Autobot history who breaks mechs limbs if they even brush their armor against his? You make a 47,813 step plan, obviously!

With enough patience, if he follows his plan to a T, and if everything aligns with how he simulated it in his processor, he'll get that hug in approximately 1 million vorns! Piece of cake!

Operation: Befriending Jazz Without Getting Killed for Looking Like a Spy, is a go
