((Writer's block, begone! *waves hands dramatically*
Thought I'd give the 28 "character" meme a shot. I'm going to be tormenting our favorite Autobot leader for a little... x] Thanks to Vector Sigma3441 for giving me the list.
I don't own TF.))

"Prime! Hey, Prime! I've got a question!"
Optimus paused in the hallway, inwardly wincing at the irritatingly cheerful voice floating over to him. "What is it Sideswipe?"
The Lamborghini grinned mischievously. "What does a mathematician study?"
Disbelief flickered through the Autobot leader's CPU. "Mathematics. Shouldn't you -"
"What does a tactician study?" Sideswipe interrupted, his expression turning outright devillish.
"Tactics." Optimus frowned. "If you need the definitions of all these there are better sources -"
"What does a musician study?"
Optimus sighed. "Music. Now please if you do not have anything of importance to discuss..."
"No, wait, just one more." At this point Sideswipe was visibly trying (and on the verge of failing) to conceal his laughter. "So if a mathematician studies mathematics, a tactician studies tactics, and a musician studies music, who studies physics?"
He was on the point of dragging the little red demon to his office for a good lecture, but hastily answered in the hopes that it would satisfy Sideswipe. "A physician."

((I didn't come up with the joke, my brother gave me this particular plot bunny.
And by the way, if you didn't know, a person who studies physics is called a physicist. A physician is something like a doctor...))
