    Summary

    “You’re making this way harder than it needs to be, you know that?” Dee can’t help but scold the other bot as he pokes his armor here and there, looking for a reaction to some unseen internal damage.

    “Yeah, that was the plan.” Orion squints up at him. “Also wow, you’re like, REALLY pretty. Like, really really pretty.”

    Summary

    “You know,” says Dee, after everyone has filtered out of the meeting room save for him and Optimus, “I don’t think the Primes were exactly known for dozing off in the middle of strategy meetings.”

    “Actually,” Optimus starts, and Dee immediately tunes out every word he has to say after that.

    Most Cybertronians will say the greatest absurdity of their lives is how the government has been seemingly upended in the course of only a few cycles and now run by a bunch of young upstarts. Dee, on the other servo, thinks it’s that Optimus Prime of all mechs has started falling asleep on duty.

    Summary

    "I don’t know how to ask this gracefully but have you been engaging in any - ahem - intimate relations lately?”

    Prime stiffened, answering in an unusually strained tone. “You know the answer to that, Ratchet. I’m a vessel for the will of Primus, I don’t ‘engage in relations’.”

    “See, I do know that which is why I’m confused as to how I’m looking at a sparkling here.”
