RP > dirt roads

[electrowhipit]

[ There is a blue sedan trundling down a dirt road. It doesn't seem to be going anywhere in particular- in fact, it seems to be enjoying the scenery. It might also be taking it slow due to the other car that's following it. It's not exactly built for dirt roads.

When it rounds a corner, though, it slams on the breaks.

It's just found an entire field of these. ]

[He shutters his optics for a moment, at that. It's impossible not to feel it. But, he lifts one of Jolt's hands, and sets it on his chest, firmly.]

You have such a foolish phobia.

[And, just like that, there's no more trying to screen his thoughts. There's only love -- he could never forget this -- you're a part of me, you silly blue lightning rod]

[electrowhipit]

[ He actually clings at that.

There's love, and gratitude- so much gratitude- pouring from his end of their link ]

[He rocks on his wheels a little, but, manages to get his arms around you.]

You are so stupid sometimes, you know that?

[There's way too much affection there for that to be an insult.]

[electrowhipit]

[ He's trying to get better at it. He really is. Some wounds just run... really deep.

But he loves you. He loves you so much. He doesn't know where he'd be without you ]

[stabbywheelfeet.livejournal.com]

[He rests his head against yours.]

I know... believe me, I know they do. But you really... must trust me. I think if I were to forget you, I'd have gone mad. And one of us would have to be dead.

[As best he can, he's echoing that sentiment, content just to stand like this for a while.]

[electrowhipit]

[ Of course he trusts you. He trusts you with his life.

He also truly believes that you're the best thing to ever happen to him. ]

Thanks, Sideswipe.

[stabbywheelfeet.livejournal.com]

[He gives you a little headbutt of affection.]

No, you've got it backward...

[electrowhipit]

[ He smiles, actually smiles, at that ]

Maybe we're both right.

[stabbywheelfeet.livejournal.com]

[He purrs a little, and runs a hand over the side of your face.]

Of course I'm right.

[electrowhipit]

[ He leans into that, his smile becoming something more affectionate ]

Don't let it go to your head.

[stabbywheelfeet.livejournal.com]

[He smiles a little too, even purring slightly.]

Mm, too late, I think.

[electrowhipit]

[ He just chuckles. Maybe you deserve some ego stroking after being so sweet ]

[stabbywheelfeet.livejournal.com]

Hmm, I'm flattered you think so, darling.

[electrowhipit]

[ He brings a hand up to begin tracing your faceplates ]

Don't get used to it. [ teasing, of course ]

[stabbywheelfeet.livejournal.com]

[He leans into that a little, purring quietly.]

Again, too late. I already am.

[electrowhipit]

[ He trails his hand down to yours, and gives it a little tug ]

Come on. [ he wants to see how far this field of flowers goes ]

[stabbywheelfeet.livejournal.com]

All right, all right... if you insist...

[He grins, and lets himself be tugged along.]

[electrowhipit]

[ Don't mind it if he bombards you with facts about every flower they pass ]

[stabbywheelfeet.livejournal.com]

[... he will tolerate this, in good humor, just wheeling along with you.]

[electrowhipit]

[ He doesn't mean to. He just gets so excited! ]

[stabbywheelfeet.livejournal.com]

[And, by extension, he's excited for you. Which is why he's tolerating your plant babble.]

[electrowhipit]

[ They're well away from the road now, and the flowers and grass here are quite tall ]

... Hey.

[stabbywheelfeet.livejournal.com]

[He's distracted by... something.]

Hm?

[electrowhipit]

... Sideswipe? What is it?

[ what is distracting you? ]

[stabbywheelfeet.livejournal.com]

... Birds.

[They'll get mess all over his paint. They look for the prettiest cars, you know. :( ]
