Sometime after this, Ironhide returns to Autobase in a towering mood. Somewhere, someone is laughing at him, and whether it's Primus, the universe in general, or even just Bumblebee sniggering the way he always does, he'd really like to punch 'em

Prime is in his office, going over reports - mostly logistics. (He's also reviewing the psych evaluations of a Laser Tag stadium owner, just in case.)

Thus he is in his office when Ironhide comes by.

Well. That was easy.

This part,on the other hand, is gonna be hard.

"Hey, Prime? Something's come up...."

[autocommander]

It makes sense for him to be in his office.

"Morning, Ironhide. What's going on?"

The humans seem to find rubbing at the back of their neck a reassuring gesture when they've got complicated news to deliver. Ironhide, alas, doesn't seem to be wired for that to work.

"I just got a lesson in a human concept I really wasn't expecting," he says instead. "You know about this 'hereditary rule' thing some of them have?"
