I would be delighted to try anything you make, Tailgate.
[ He's touched by this gesture. ]
[ He's touched by this gesture. ]
[Don't be too touched, there's an ulterior motive here.]
Awesome!
I'll bring it by your room? I hope I got the flavours and everything right!

I'm sure you've gotten everything fine. I'll be in my room and wait.
[Zoom! Tailgate finds his way to Antlers' room in about ten minutes, and Tailgate cheerfully knocks on his door. When Antlers opens it, he'll find Tailgate stand there with a small plate of pretty purple cookies waiting for him.]
Hello!
[He stops and squints up at him.]
What happened to your face?
Hello!
[He stops and squints up at him.]
What happened to your face?
Remember when you told me not to randomly pick up random minimechs? I know why now... but enough about my trial by error.
[ He scratches his cheek and looks the other way. Clearly embarrassed by this blunder]
I am delighted to be a taste tester for cookies. I've never gotten to do something like this!

Well, now you know.
[He invites himself inside and sets the plate on a nearby table.]
Go ahead and try one!

Of course. Lesson learned and I get cookies out of it~
[ He'll not learn anything really, but he takes a cookie and tosses it into his mouth with a crunch. ]

[Tailgate waits with obvious anticipation.]
So?
So?
It's very delicious, a hint of cinnim- AHCH.... [ He doubles over. Holding his abdomen like one would an upset stomach. Falls over, and is bathed in a light.
As that light gets brighter it simultaneously gets smaller and smaller and then. It melts away leaving the smallest Antlers you'll ever see. the Size of a human teenager. ]

AAAAAH!
[Tailgate shrieks in absolute delight at the tiniest Antlers he'd ever seen!
Unable to stop himself, he leans in and scoops tiny Antlers up and holds up to the light.]
You are the cutest thing I've ever seen!
[He gleefully hugs him to his chest.]

Tailgat- ACCCH!! [ He's smooshed to Tailgate's chest dangling his legs in a flail. He tries pushing out of Tailgate's grip but then slips and there he is held still. Oh god is this what Leader-1 Feels like all the time? ]
[There's no escaping Tailgate's superstrength! Tailgate giggles and continues to hold Antlers against his will.]
This is amazing! I can't believe I have magic cookies!
Thanks for your help Antlers!
[He finally lets him go and sets him on a nearby table.]

Tailgate... dearest friend... What did you do to me?!?
[ He doesn't seem as scary being 4-5 foot tall ]
[ He doesn't seem as scary being 4-5 foot tall ]
[Tailgate seems considerably less cute now that there's a mischievous gleam in his optics.]
A bit of magic, apparently, courtesy of Megatron!
Uh. I mean. Runt? He enchanted the space drugs I put in these cookies!
Anyway, I have to see what else I can do with these! I'll talk to you later!
[With a bounce of excitement, Tailgate turns around and runs out of the room, closing the door behind him.]

Hey Antlers! Sorry your date with Minimus didn't go super well.
But! You don't have to despair! How about you let me set you up with a blind date?
I promise you'll get along super well!
[uwu.]

[ Antlers Meg stares at his datapad a moment and a smile crosses his face. Its nice to know there's still those that care about him. ]
Now... you promise. This isn't setting me up with a jail cell is it? [ Light humour, to hide a bruised ego. ]
I would love to partake in a blind date. Tailgate, you're such a delightful friend.

Excellent! I think you'll enjoy yourself a lot!
Honestly, you're made for each other. I'll ping you as soon as I have everything set up!

[ The curiosity of it is enough to let Tailgate play matchmaker. ]
I look forward to this! I'll be waiting.
I look forward to this! I'll be waiting.
[ground out like it physically hurts him to say this:] Listen to me well, because I'm only going to say this once. Attacking you in your throne room recently was... not a thought out action. It will not happen again.
Unless you deserve it.
Now you can no longer use that as an excuse to behave despicably. Because I have apologised and set things straight. Good bye.

[ There's a beeping tone that just sounds like Antlers himself making the noise. ]
Sorry your call could not go through, this users mailbox is full.

[the poor walls of this ship... once again they find themselves beaten upon by megatron in a brief fit of rage. it's too bad antlers doesn't get to see or hear the tantrum.]
Be as petty as you wish. I have forced myself to gain some perspective rather than willingly remaining blind to what is going on.

You accused me of stealing your husband. You have attempted to beat me in my room twice now. You threw away our Bondage of Leadership.
What makes you think I'm ready to forgive you. [ He answers at least. But he sounds bored and worst... like he's above Runt on the food chain. Yet some how a perpetual whiner ]]

Yes, it's been... complicated. [the first time he wanted to die and knew another version of himself would do it best, the second time... he was simply throwing a tantrum the way antlers does. being anything like antlers makes him want to completely change everything about himself immediately.] I did not truly believe you to have done anything. You understand. I simply wanted to attack the closest thing to me.
Do what you want.
Do what you want.
Hmph, fine. If you wish to leave this as it is so be it. I will not hunt you down, Runt. I promise that for this time being, but things will be remedied to the way I Desire it to be.
Good bye, my dear friend. I hope your husband understands the type of person you are.
Good bye, my dear friend. I hope your husband understands the type of person you are.
Yes, Megatron. [he says, indulgently, ignoring that comment about optimus. he thinks he is starting to trust both in optimus's decision to stay with him and in his own resolve to change into someone optimus deserves.] It's best to leave violence behind for now. I will not raise my hand to you in your own territory again. We all deserve at least one spot of respite.
[he still hates antlers the way he hates a lot of people, but... at the very least, he means what he says. someone like antlers and like himself will only get worse when they have what little they have taken away from them.
unless he decides antlers deserves it, of course.]
