rehab 3 WE'RE STILL GOING AT IT
Who: op and sentinel
What: THE CONTINUING ADVENTURES OF MAKING AN ASSHOLE FEEL BAD
When: post bang botanicals
Where: bar then other places
Warnings: Vodka Aunt sentinel
Unbeknowst to him, Sentinel's comm device was buzzing away, rattling across the floor. It had rolled off the table about an hour ago but he hadn't noticed.
Instead, Sentinel had made a somewhat decent decision to rewire his wrist mounted guns into non-lethal tasers. It wasn't anything outside his area of expertise - though admittedly, he was much better with guns that would actually kill. Ah, c'est la vie. Apparently during the goddamn war, someone decided murders were "unethical."
Anyway.
Despite trying to do something positive, Sentinel had also made the bad decision of drinking while doing so. It's made his concentration suffer but frankly, after what happened in Kaon, he's amazed he's not comatose in a gutter somewhere. Fuckin' Megatron. Fuckin' Decepticons. Fuckin' political apartheid that eventually and, he supposes in hindsight, inevitably violently spilled over the bubbling pot.
Fuckin' Megatron.

You can't skip out on rehab that easily, buddy.
But the good thing about hunting down Sentinel? He wasn't exactly hard to find. He didn't really see him as someone who went out of his way to hide himself, but he was surprisingly not all that social. Huh. Weird, right? But honestly, that meant Sentinel was in one of three places: the crater, an old building, or here.
This one just happened to be his first stop. LUCKY YOU.
"Sentinel."
His voice had a little more authority this time as he steps into Maccadam's. It wasn't exactly hard to find him in the room. He's just the giant asshole.
no subject
It takes a good minute or two before he acknowledges Optimus' presence.
"Do you need something lifted?" he asks flatly. Why else would Optimus come after him? He's not entirely aware of the amount of time that's passed and that it would be time for rehab again.
no subject
Still, he'll walk over and pick up that communicator, checking it briefly to see--yep, all of his calls ignored. There's a quick slide of it in Sentinel's direction.
"I've been trying to reach you for quite some time. Rehabilitation."
Yep, it's that time once again.
no subject
For a moment, Sentinel does look vaguely surprised. He didn't think Optimus wanted to continue it. He picks up his comm with his free hand, dismisses all the missed calls and starts putting his forearm back together. There is a reason he's doing it himself.
"What did you have in mind for this time?"
no subject
Pick better, more responsible hobbies.
"I was hoping we could drive out past the limits."
Say it slower, Optimus. Driiiiiiveeeeeee.
no subject
Anyway, at drive, Sentinel almost drops the armour panel he was holding, then shakes himself.
"I'd rather not drive."
no subject
"I don't think you really get a choice in the matter. I'm surprised it's taken you three of these and you still question that."
no subject
He clicks the plating back into place, avoiding optic contact.
"You are welcome to go without me."
no subject
Okay, things got a little more interesting. His arms stay in their folded state, but those eyes narrow.
"What do you mean you -can't-".
no subject
He's expecting Optimus to laugh it up.
"Even if I still had one, I do not think I would be able to transform, anyway."
no subject
But there is a strained sigh as two fingers go to the bridge of his nose. Honestly, Sentinel, if you wanted to get out of this you could at least come up with a better excuse.
"You magically do not have your T-Cog."
Can you feel the weight of disbelief in his voice?
"I didn't realize I was speaking to Rodimus."
no subject
Okay, no, he is slightly offended because WHY WOULD THAT BE THE EXCUSE HE USES, and also he is still salty about losing a major organ.
"By saying I'm missing a major organ." He can hear Megatron laughing somewhere, he's sure. "After - despite it being entirely pointless and moronic - I was disembowelled by Megatron."
He clenches his fists so hard the knuckles creak, resisting the urge to outright sucker punch Optimus. For all the 5 seconds he would be alive after it, it would be extremely satisfying.
no subject
HE'S NOT SAYING IT'S LIKE YOU BUT PRIMES ARE KNOWN FOR BULLSHIT EXCUSES OKAY.
"What good would your T-Cog be to Megatron?"
Sorry Sentinel, he needs more clues than that.
no subject
Yeah, because Optimus would know that.
"I'm not dying so I assumed they wouldn't care. And what would they do? Do we have some t-cogs laying around? That would fit?"
He huffs. Really, the reason is he's a giant shitbaby.
"Megatron took it for symbolism."
...
"I think."
no subject
Inhale. Exhale.
"No, but I could have talked Megatron into giving it back."
...
But of COURSE he took it for symbolism. This isn't a fucking mess that he's learning about a year later. NOPE. See this dent marks by his nose bridge? THEY'RE JUST FOR DECORATION.
no subject
Get your camera out, Optimus. Something momentous is about to happen. Sentinel makes a pfffft noise then starts laughing.
The second he's finished - honestly it was just a little heh heh heh noise - he immediately covers his mouth with his hand and looks a little shocked, like he betrayed himself by having An Emotion.
"...No. You couldn't have."
no subject
Okay, laughter out of Sentinel is both momental and a little worrying. Mark that down for things he never wishes to hear again, and it visibly worries him for the short duration it exists. His plating twitches, as do his ear pieces. Like a dog who's just heard a new sound.
"You'd be amazed what I've accomplished with just speaking to him."
no subject
He shrugs.
"However I would not be surprised if he no longer has it."
Sentinel expects Megatron probably ate it.
no subject
thighsfeet, the chance of him holding onto it merely for sentimental value was at an all time low. Especially after a year."Mm. Then perhaps we can walk."
A glare. He's not going to forget about this. He's going to deal with this RIGHT after rehab.
"Unless you're opposed to walking as well."
no subject
"...No, that's fine."
He drags a hand down his face, trying to compose himself again. Goddamnit.
no subject
You know, that thing you're so good at.
no subject
Pulling his arm away from Optimus' hand and he makes a thoughtful noise.
"There are some things I would like to discuss along the way."
You know, to wherever the hell they're going. Sentinel puts a hand over where Optimus flipped the panel shut. Ugh. Peasant germs.
no subject
"Really."
That's as surprised as he can get, honestly.
"Well, I look forward to it." He really is. Maybe...Sentinel is opening up? He takes a step back, waiting for the larger bot to adjust himself.
Seeing those cannons finally.
"I think I have a few myself."
no subject
He watches Optimus for a second. Nope, still no idea how to describe his trip home without sounding completely insane.
"You first."
no subject
But he starts to walk, making his way out of Macaddam's and holding the door open for him.
"I'll start with the obvious. What were you doing back there?"
