ROBOT PROM

the punch has been spiked, the music is whatever they could scrape together, and there’s bleachers to make out behind. takes place OUTSIDE in the forum so there's plenty of space and people can easily crash it.

prom king is optimus prime, prom queen is pipes.

please behave as irresponsibly as you would at real prom.

comment around, mingle, you all know the drill.

"Kiddo?" He bristles slightly, but it's better than Hot Rod. "Look, the only people who call me kid are Ironhide and Kup. You don't need to join their ranks."

Introducing himself would probably help.

"Rodimus, Captain," and there's a blissful moment where he doesn't hear Megatron correcting him, "of the Lost Light."

"... Yeah, okay. I'm not anywhere near that old."

Like that's his only problem with the statement. So much for making a decent impression.

"Sorry. Never heard of you." There's an awkward shrug. "You're... probably way after the last couple minutes on Cybertron I remember."

[rodders]

"Sometimes I think the only person older than them is Alpha Trion." With his little metal beard. Which seems less weird after Magnus' mustache but hey.

"'Way after'... I'm not that young. Just, you know. Four million." Rodimus that's younger than everyone but the warborns pretty much.

"Haha... yeah."

Right. Laugh like you have any idea what the hell is going on. It'd probably be easier to bluff it if he weren't scratching at the side of his neck.

And grimacing.

"See, about that..." He makes a few awkward gestures. "That's about the chunk of time I'm... missing."

[rodders]

"Four million-- so you missed the war and everything."

THAT IS SO WEIRD he's never sure how to deal with that.

[officerjuicebox]

"Yeah, emphasis on... everything."

There wasn't even a war on the horizon, last he remembers. Just unhappy people.
