Auspex's reality. Sanctuary of Primus. Another ghostly visit.
Cyclonus: *appears in the sanctuary and gives Auspex a harried look* Is she here?
Auspex: *blinkblinks, not sure exactly what Cyclonus this is, other than a dead one* Who are you looking for?
Cyclonus: *frown and fret* Galvatron!
Auspex: *tilts her head in puzzlement* I've not seen her... are you, perhaps, from my brother's universe? Galvatron was female, there..
Cyclonus: *blinks* Brother... Teletraan. Yes. *scowls again* Where could she be??
Auspex: *winces slightly* She's left the Allspark, again? I'm... not sure where she would be.
Cyclonus: *much anxiety as he seems to shut off his optics, 'listening' for that special bit of jangled song*
*and then Auspex will feel clearly much contentment and amusement and general goodwill*
Cyclonus: *starts and looks around, his expression bewildered*
Auspex: *also glancing around* Hmm... we seem to have a visitor?
Cyclonus: ...my lady?
Galvatron: *blinks into sight and throws herself at him with a laugh*
Cyclonus: Where were you? I searched the Nexus and the dressing room!
Galvatron: *gives Auspex a grin, then turns back to her mate* Looking for you.
Cyclonus: .... 0_o
Auspex: *nods politely, with a little smile* Hmm... how is it that this happened? *she looks somewhat... not skeptical, but taking this with the proverbial grain of salt*
Galvatron: *still hanging around Cyclonus' neck* I went to drop something off with that male Scourge, and then came back to the Nexus and couldn't find this idiot anywhere.
Cyclonus: *Too embarrassed at not being where his lady expected him to be to notice where she said she'd been*
Auspex: *hadn't really made note of anything potentially amiss, actually, until his embarrassment increases. Still, she makes no comment. She is more intent on Galvatron now, however* A Scourge? From which reality?
Galvatron: *shrug* I don't know. He's the one I borrowed that time.
Auspex: *is silent a moment, before nodding slowly* Ahh, I see. He is one of my charges... I trust he is in good health? *i.e., did she leave him alone?*
Galvatron: *very pleased with herself* He's rich.
Auspex: *tilts her head again. She takes a moment to formulate a question* ...what happened?
Galvatron: I gave him a reservation to a fancy resort, and some credit that I found laying around. *smug*
Cyclonus: ...My lady, where did you get credit? And a reservation?
Galvatron: Bumblebee helped with the reservation, and the credit.... *more smug* I think Vago thought he'd gotten away scott free when I died.
Cyclonus: *blinks, and then smirks*
Auspex: *stares somewhat blankly for a moment* You... he... *optics widen - she gave this to him as a compensation, of sorts? And...* How did you know I told Scourge he should find a way to have Cyclonus take a vacation..? Primus has been talking... *she nudges her god, and receives an answer of maybe-but-probably-not-really-innocence*
Galvatron: Eh? *frown* I didn't know a slagging thing about that. I was just in a feel good mood. Slagging Allspark song.
Auspex: *blinks again for a moment longer, before chuckling softly* Hmm. I don't pretend to understand the subtleties of Allspark commune. But... I'm very pleased to hear that - it is a needed thing, if Scourge can devise a way get him there. I must thank you as well. That was very kind of you, and I think it will do both of them good. *pleased smile*
Galvatron: *shrugs* Not like I had anything else to do with that credit. By the way, Cyclonus, did you know our Scourge is word-bonded with Astrotrain?
Cyclonus: ...Yes. *frown. He still doesn't think that guy's worth his sister*
Galvatron: Well, Rodimus sent them a nice vacation reservation... he'll probably find out soon.
Cyclonus: >_> Yes, my lady.
Auspex: *smiles again, all too aware of Galvatron's mischievous satisfaction at her latest exploits* I trust no one will be in trouble for this..?
Galvatron: *smirking once more* Only Vago. And he deserves it. Right, Cyclonus?
Cyclonus: *growls at the memory of the alien's disrespect* Yes.
Auspex: Hmm. *nods, doesn't ask* This was good of you.
Galvatron: *smug smug as she acknowledges the comment, but then pauses and tilts her head as she notices a new note in the song* Is Sunstreaker visiting again?
Cyclonus: *blink* Ah... no. She died yesterday.
Galvatron: *blinks and sobers a little. The golden Autobot's struggle had wakened a chord of understanding in her, and to learn that the fight is over is a bit jarring. She scowls, suddenly discontent* I missed her homecoming.
Auspex: *winces slightly* Ah... she was hurt when Frenzy was killed, was she not? I'm glad for her arrival in the Allspark, if not her departure from her living loved ones....
Cyclonus: *blinks as Galvatron vanishes* Sideswipe is provided for. Sunstreaker still feels nearly as strongly of Red Alert as she does of her twin. *frown* I have to go. My lady is calling me.
Auspex: Ah, good... I am relieved to hear that. And... *slight chuckle* Your lady is as indomitable as all who bear that name... I am grateful for what she's done. Though, she does seem to run off quite a bit. *she offers Cyclonus a rueful smile* I am glad she has you, and your constancy. Go, before she comes back. *her optics brighten in gentle amusement, as she nods farewell*
Cyclonus: *gives her an answering nod even as he says proudly* Nothing will ever contain her.
*and then he too is gone*
Auspex: *has a feeling Galvatron would certainly make them regret it, if anyone tried. She smiles after the ghostly Decepticons.*
